Chapter 56 Chapter 56 I don’t mind having a relationship with Secretary Yu…
After dinner, Liao Youlin explained the purpose of inviting Yu Wan to dinner.
His face no longer had the initial frivolity, and he looked much more serious, but his words were still as annoying as before.
Liao Youlin said, "We're flying back to Hong Kong City tomorrow at 10:30 AM, so Miss Yu can spend this afternoon as she pleases. However, Liao Ruxuan must be accompanied by a bodyguard and must not leave their sight within five meters. If anything goes wrong, it would be difficult for me to explain to the old man. Secondly, I wonder if Miss Yu can take responsibility. I think Miss Yu is a smart person and should know what to do. Also, besides being unable to speak, Liao Ruxuan also has a weak heart. Strenuous exercise or stimulating activities are completely off-limits to her. Also, strong ultraviolet rays will cause her to break out in rashes, swell in her throat, and have difficulty breathing. She can't stay in the sun except on rainy days. It's best for your afternoon activities to be indoors. Regarding food, Liao Ruxuan doesn't have many dietary restrictions; Auntie will remind her. However, please don't let her eat food from street vendors; it would be very troublesome to deal with any problems..."
As the eldest brother, Liao Youlin was often forced by the old man to do these things and knew them very well, but he was afraid that Yu Wan didn't know. If Yu Wan didn't know, he would be the one to suffer in the end.
After giving instructions on precautions, Liao Youlin glanced at Liao Ruxuan, who obediently covered her ears.
Liao Youlin then continued, "Miss Yu, don't feel wronged. When the driver picks up Liao Ruxuan later, you can get a check for two million as a token of gratitude."
Fu Zhiyao frowned unhappily.
Liao Youlin really has a bad memory and doesn't even know how to write the word "face" to measure the time and energy Yu Wan has put in with a check for two million.
But Fu Zhiyao didn't say anything, just like when she refused the pearl jewelry he gave her, he knew Yu Wan would handle it.
Just like Fu Zhiyao thought, Yu Wan felt nothing inside. She shook her head and declined the check. "I promised Xiaoxuan that I would accompany her when she came to Hai City. I don't need any financial thanks. However, since Mr. Liao is so sincere about wanting to pay, then please pay for the afternoon's outing and the postage."
Liao Youlin frowned: "Postage?"
Liao Ruxuan saw Yu Wanchao making sign language gestures to her: Tell him, where are we going to play this afternoon?
Liao Ruxuan put down her hands that were covering her ears, looked up at Liao Youlin, and met the man's dark and indifferent eyes.
She actually doesn't like her elder brother Liao Youlin, and she also knows that Liao Youlin doesn't like her, but if Liao Youlin wasn't in Hai City, her father would not allow her to come and play with Yu Wan.
Liao Ruxuan said: My sister Yu Wan and I are going to the pottery shop in the afternoon. I want to make a beautiful cup for my father.
The nanny beside her kindly translated for the little lady.
Liao Youlin glanced at Yu Wan, and his big hand fell on Liao Ruxuan's head, pushing Liao Ruxuan to Yu Wan's side. "Then I'll trouble Miss Yu to take care of her. For the fees you mentioned, please contact Xiao Cao directly."
Assistant Cao nodded to Yu Wan behind Liao Youlin. The two had exchanged contact information long before.
With Liao Ruxuan around, Yu Wan didn't need to take another taxi. She held Liao Ruxuan's hand, said goodbye to Fu Zhiyao, got into the black nanny car, and disappeared from Fu Zhiyao's sight.
Fu Zhiyao turned around and met Liao Youlin's face with a mischievous smile.
Liao Youlin's eyebrows twitched. "Where did Mr. Fu find such a talent as Secretary Yu? It's a pity that she has no background and is far away in Hai City. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind having a sincere relationship with her."
Fu Zhiyao's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone could hardly hide his sarcasm and warning: "Yu Wan is my secretary. She has her own work and pursuits. She is not the object of your imagination. If Mr. Liao can't learn how to praise people correctly, I can pay for Mr. Liao to enroll in a language class. Mr. Liao doesn't have to feel wronged. I can still afford the check for two million." Fu Zhiyao stared at Liao Youlin motionlessly, his eyes dark and gloomy, full of oppression, and his words were more blunt and merciless than the last time he declined cooperation.
Liao Youlin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, collected his thoughts, and smiled as he changed the subject: "It's just a casual remark, Mr. Fu, don't take it seriously. I just really liked Secretary Yu's performance at the press conference today. She was unexpectedly calm."
Fu Zhiyao did not answer Liao Youlin's question. Does he need to make the final judgment on Secretary Yu's excellence?
Letting Yu Wan participate in the project throughout was not for her to just be a bystander. He would be disappointed if Yu Wan just stood there stupidly on the stage. However, Liao Youlin was right about one thing: Yu Wan's expression was indeed beyond his expectations.
Yu Wan took Liao Ruxuan to the pottery shop where they had made an appointment. The shop was clean and tidy, and there were private rooms, so there was no need to worry about being disturbed by others.
Two tall and strong bodyguards in casual clothes sat in the corner of the private room, looking around with a serious look in their eyes, and they were serious.
Yu Wan didn't feel uncomfortable. After all, this was their job and they were all workers, so it was understandable.
But the store manager was obviously a little panicked. After teaching Yu Wan how to use the potter's wheel and various scraping tools, he quickly slipped out of the room, not daring to stay for a moment longer.
It was the first time for both Yu Wan and Liao Ruxuan to make pottery. In addition, the store manager said that the clay bodies made on the same day should be air-dried for two days before painting. So the two of them decided to make a cup together for fun, and then use the semi-finished products dried in the store for painting.
The two of them were kneading the clay and had no hands free, but this did not affect their communication. The wheel throwing machine was spinning too fast, causing the clay to be kneaded crookedly, and the scraping was too hard, causing half of the clay to be cut off, which made them laugh. Liao Ruxuan could not make a sound, but her eyes were curved with laughter, and her eyes were bright and lively.
The bodyguard sitting in the corner diligently recorded the two people's laughing scene and sent it to Liao Guanru who was far away in Hong Kong.
After working for more than an hour, the two finally made a crooked cup.
Liao Ruxuan was a little frustrated. Yu Wan pinched her face and said: It’s okay, I can use it as a pen holder to hold my signature pens. It’s very practical.
Only then did Liao Ruxuan laugh.
The two went to the store manager to select blanks that could be painted directly. Yu Wan chose two plates, planning to give one to Liao Ruxuan and one to Fu Xuan after they were finished.
Fu Xuan somehow found out her birthday, and on that day he sent her a white T-shirt with three people drawn on the back, which was the scene of the parent-child sports meeting.
Fu Zhiyao and she turned their heads to look at her at the same time, while Fu Xu'an held up the golden trophy. At the top of the screen, he wrote with colorful pens: Yu Wan, happy birthday!!!
Fu Xuan'an's brushstrokes are childlike yet he has solid painting skills. Simple line combinations can easily express the characteristics of characters, which is very eye-catching. Yu Wan thinks Fu Xuan is very suitable to be an artist.
After selecting the blank, the two began to color it. This time, there were fewer obstacles in communication. They talked about many topics one after another. Since Yu Wan didn't understand the sign language, he asked Liao Ruxuan to communicate by typing.
As they were talking, they mentioned Yu Wan's childhood. Yu Wan told Liao Ruxuan that she grew up in an orphanage.
Liao Ruxuan understood the meaning of the orphanage.
She is in poor health and goes to school at home every day. On weekends, she can play with her mobile phone and watch TV. She saw a video of her father participating in a charity event on TV and learned that the orphanage is specifically for children who have no parents or relatives to raise them.
Liao Ruxuan looked at Yu Wan, who was carefully painting with her brush with her head down, without a trace of sadness on her face.
She asked Yu Wan: "Do you want to find your parents? I can ask my dad to help you."
Yu Wan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slightly, "No need."
If she was a child who knew nothing about her own life experience, she might look forward to her parents and wonder if they had to abandon her for some unavoidable reason, just like when she was a child, waiting for the orphanage door to open every day, imagining that her biological parents would appear in the next second, smiling and ready to take her home.
The word "home" is too broad. Yu Wan used to think that home only means having parents and family, but now she feels that she is also a home.
It was already past seven in the evening when the pottery was completed. Yu Wan did not attend the celebration banquet, but had dinner with Liao Ruxuan. When saying goodbye, Liao Ruxuan hugged Yu Wan tightly and refused to let go.
Yu Wan squatted down and looked at her with a gentle gaze: We have exchanged contact information. You can send me a message at any time. I may not be able to reply in time, but I will reply to you after I finish work, so distance is not a problem.
Liao Ruxuan was anxious and moved her hands quickly: Then you quit your job and come to Gangcheng to live with me. I will ask my father to pay you a salary.
Yu Wan smiled and shook her head: No, I won’t agree to anything I can’t do, but when I’m on vacation, I’ll go to Gangcheng to play with you. I haven’t ridden the Sunset Roller yet.
The last time she was on a business trip, it was the rainy season and she stayed in the hotel all day without going out for a walk. She felt very sorry about it.
Liao Ruxuan knew that Yu Wan always kept her word, so she pursed her lips and reluctantly agreed to her agreement.
The aggrieved little expression made Yu Wan laugh. She pinched her face and coaxed her: I will perform another magic trick for you, do you want to see it?
Liao Ruxuan nodded.
Yu Wan repeated the magic moves she performed in front of Liao Ruxuan for the first time. Her fingers danced and finally she grabbed the back of Liao Ruxuan's head. She opened her palm and a cute furry panda pendant swayed along the chain in front of Liao Ruxuan's eyes. The little panda was holding a green bamboo in its arms.
Liao Ruxuan opened her eyes wide in surprise.
It’s her favorite panda, and the pattern she painted on the cup today is a panda!
Liao Ruxuan happily accepted the gift and was carried into the nanny car by the bodyguard. The car window was lowered. Liao Ruxuan waved goodbye to Yu Wan, and did not forget to emphasize: Remember to come and play with me!
"good."
Yu Wan nodded, watched the nanny car drive away, and entered the community by scanning her face.
When she entered the room, her phone screen accidentally lit up, and Yu Wan saw an unread message from her boss, which was sent half an hour after she sent a message asking for leave to miss the celebration party.
Boss: [Are you home yet?]
Yu Wan closed the door and quickly replied: [I just got home and saw the message you sent me, boss. Thank you for your concern.]
This time, Fu Zhiyao replied in less than a minute.
Still a "hmm", no emotion can be seen.
Yu Wan stared at the lonely word "hmm", pursed her lips, smiled, put away her phone and went to take a shower.
After taking a shower, all the fatigue was gone. Although the afternoon activities did not require mental and physical energy, Yu Wan felt particularly sore in the waist, perhaps because her period was about to come.
After tidying up and returning to the bedroom, Yu Wan put on a waist massager and blue light blocking glasses and processed the remaining work in front of the computer. She was busy until 11:30 before she finished it. After checking it carefully and making sure there was no problem, she set a scheduled email to be sent to Fu Zhiyao's mailbox at 10:30 tomorrow, and then closed the computer.
Before going to bed, Yu Wan habitually checked the shopping app. As soon as she clicked on it, a pop-up window popped up: Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, prepare a surprise for your loved ones in advance!
Yu Wan remembered that her boss's birthday seemed to be at the end of this month. She exited the software and checked the calendar to confirm again.
It was something that Fu Xuan mentioned during their last chat, and Yu Wan marked it on the calendar.
Thinking of her boss's usual generosity and the advice he gave her at work, Yu Wan decided to give her boss a birthday gift, just like the afternoon tea and dessert she treated him to when she got a permanent position. It didn't have to be expensive, as long as it could express her gratitude and thoughts.
After confirming that his boss's birthday was still half a month away, Yu Wan put down his phone and fell asleep peacefully.
