Lan Xiaolan looked at the contents of Ren Tingxi's computer. There were several design drawing files on the desktop, as well as some contracts that needed to be negotiated with others.
There were a lot of things in the computer, and it was obvious that every one of them was a business secret, but Ren Tingxi told her the computer password and let her use his work computer openly.
It seems that Ren Tingxi really has absolute trust in her.
Ren Tingxi came over after taking a shower, sat next to Lan Xiaolan, and turned on another computer.
"I have a video conference with the team in Italy. May I disturb you?"
"It's okay, you're busy."
Then the two of them sat side by side, he was having a video conference with the engineering team abroad, and she was writing a manuscript on another computer next to them.
This feeling is really wonderful.
When they were in school, they often sat together like this to study. Now they also sit side by side at the workbench, doing their respective jobs.
It was as if time had brought them back to eight years ago.
Lan Xiaolan successfully completed the manuscript for tomorrow's press conference on Ren Tingxi's computer.
However, Ren Tingxi's video conference had not ended yet. In order not to disturb Ren Tingxi's work, she decided to wait for him on the balcony outside the study.
In a little while, it will be August 15th, and the moon in the sky already appears exceptionally round.
The bright moonlight was like a huge silver plate, hanging high in the quiet and deep sky, emitting a soft and peaceful light, illuminating the entire earth.
The house where Ren Tingxi lives is close to the river. Now, standing on the balcony, he can see the surging river outside and the sparkling waves.
In the bustling city, the tiny lights of thousands of households bloom colorfully under your feet. The lonely moonlight in the sky and the noisy lights underground form a sharp contrast.
It makes people feel both comfortable and sad.
She used to live on the third floor of the institute and had never seen such a spectacular and beautiful sight. However, now that she was standing on a high place, what she saw was indeed different.
Lan Xiaolan held onto the balcony railing, quietly feeling the rare peaceful time.
Suddenly, Ren Tingxi took out a coat from behind and put it on her.
Lan Xiaolan turned around slowly, and her blurred and confused eyes inadvertently collided with Ren Tingxi's dark and deep eyes.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and their eyes met, as if they could penetrate the softest corners of each other's hearts.
Ren Tingxi walked up to her, hugged her and gave her a gentle kiss.
"Don't be angry with me anymore. Let's make peace, okay?" The arrogant Ren Tingxi actually pleaded bitterly in a humble tone.
Lan Xiaolan knew clearly what Ren Tingxi was thinking these days, but...
When the kiss came, Lan Xiaolan did not respond enthusiastically. She just lowered her head slightly and was speechless for a long time.
Some wounds, although diluted by time, will heal after being licked thousands of times.
But a wound is a wound. It had been ruthlessly dug open, bled, and felt pain.
There are many things that cannot be resolved with just a few words.
Ren Tingxi could see through Lan Xiaolan's thoughts. In fact, he knew every bit of her sadness and grievances.
"The kiss mark on my neck was from Ling Muxue."
"I know."
"You know her, too?"
"The beautiful overseas returnee landed at the University of Arts, and upon returning to China, she switched to Business Administration for you. The whole school is buzzing about it, everyone knows about it."
"That day at the trade party, I only drank one glass of wine and passed out. When I woke up, I saw her lying on top of me."
"Oh, congratulations." Lan Xiaolan laughed coldly.
"Lanlan, I'm not the type to get drunk after just one drink."
"Someone drugged Ling Muxue and me in our drinks, so I couldn't control myself."
"I saw that the person lying on me was Ling Muxue. I pushed her away with one hand and finally returned home."
"I clearly saw that it was you who opened the door for me and helped me into the house. Only after I confirmed again and again that it was you did I fall asleep peacefully."
Ren Tingxi hugged her tightly in his arms: "I swear to the moon that I have never done anything to let you down."
"There was none before, there is none now, and there will be none in the future."
"She's just Ling Muxue, not worth mentioning." Lan Xiaolan buried her head in Ren Tingxi's arms, tears slowly flowing out of the corners of her eyes.
"My mother went to look for you, didn't she?"
Lan Xiaolan didn't say anything, just agreed.
"What did she say to you?"
"Auntie didn't say anything. She just had a meal with me alone."
"She was elegantly dressed, spoke gracefully, and behaved in a gentle and refined manner. She didn't say anything at the dinner table, except for one sentence when she left."
"I'm sorry, Miss Lan, I don't think you and Tingxi are suitable."
"Ren Tingxi, your mother is right. You may need a woman like her to be worthy of you, but I don't want to be that kind of woman."
It’s not that Lan Xiaolan can’t be that kind of woman, but that she doesn’t want to be that kind of woman.
She has the life she wants and she just wants to be who she wants to be.
"You just need to be yourself. What I like is you. No matter who you become, the person I love will only be you."
