Chapter 59



At six o'clock on Friday evening, many people will not choose to work overtime, but go home early to bathe and burn incense to welcome the weekend.

Ye Nanning has also finished the work at hand. These jobs are not too difficult in fact, but it takes time to get used to them when you first start working. Now, after working for more than two months, she has been able to handle the daily work with ease and can even find time to confess her feelings.

Ye Nanning smiled in her heart, then walked outside the office, knocked on the door, and asked, "Boss Du, when are you going back?"

"Ah?" Du Xiran looked up and saw that it was her. He stared at the computer again and said, "I'll be there for a while. You go back first."

"Okay." Ye Nanning turned and left.

Du Xiran breathed a sigh of relief and continued to deal with the work at hand, confirming the meeting with the client tomorrow. After finishing these trivial matters, it was almost seven o'clock. She packed up her things and carried her bag to wait for the elevator.

By chance, she ran into Lao Li, who briefly greeted her and talked about Hu Hanqiao's departure: "I saw her post on WeChat Moments yesterday, and it seems that she has changed her career."

Du Xiran was surprised: "You changed your career just like that? It's just because you were eliminated last. But if you don't even have this little bit of stress resistance, you're really not suitable for this industry anymore."

Lao Li smiled and said, "You are really harsh, but I agree with this. I even asked her why she didn't insist on it. It's not just Zhenghe. Guess what she said to me?"

Du Xiran wasn't very curious about the resigned employee, but Lao Li's face was full of desire to tell, so he asked cooperatively: "What did you say?"

Old Li said mysteriously, "She said she was afraid of being retaliated against if she continued working in this industry."

"Who is taking revenge?" Du Xiran asked, raised his eyebrows, and pointed at himself, "Isn't it me?"

Old Li looked at her meaningfully.

"Who is she?" Du Xiran said disdainfully, "If you hadn't mentioned her, I would have almost forgotten who she was. How could I waste my precious time to take revenge on her?"

Lao Li smiled and said, "Of course I believe you won't do such stupid things."

"That's more like it." Du Xiran smiled, then realized something was wrong and looked at him curiously, "Who is she talking about?"

Old Li hesitated to speak, as if hesitating whether to say it out loud.

"Ye Nanning?" Du Xiran guessed.

Old Li nodded and laughed out loud: "I don't know what she is thinking. Let's be careful of Ye Nanning."

Du Xiran also laughed: "She must be holding a grudge. It was clearly her who provoked the incident. Even after everyone left, she still didn't forget to slander Ye Nanning."

Old Li sighed and shook his head: "I don't understand the young people nowadays, but...she reminded me to be careful of Ye Nanning, it doesn't seem to be because of the last incident."

"What is that?"

"I don't know. She didn't elaborate. She just said it's best not to provoke Ye Nanning."

"She's right." Du Xiran said.

Old Li looked at her in surprise, and then heard Du Xiran say, "Anyone who provokes a beautiful woman will find it difficult to escape." She is an example.

Old Li laughed and said goodbye to her in the parking lot. Du Xiran walked to her car and noticed the long shadow in front of the pillar. She walked over curiously and saw Ye Nanning standing there. After being noticed, she quickly hid to the other side like a frightened deer.

After a while, Ye Nanning poked her head out from behind the pillar and looked at her innocently: "Boss Du..."

Du Xiran crossed his arms and asked, "Why are you still here? Did you just come here or did you never go back?"

Ye Nanning: "Waiting for you..."

Du Xiran glanced at the time: "Have you been waiting here for more than an hour?"

Ye Nanning nodded: "Are you done with your work?"

"Yeah." Du Xiran opened the car door, sat in the car, was quiet for a moment, turned his head and looked at her, "What are you still standing there for? Get in the car."

Ye Nanning was flattered and sat in the passenger seat, even fastening her seat belt carefully.

Du Xiran took a glance and noticed that her hands were trembling slightly. He couldn't help but want to laugh: "Why didn't you tremble like this before?"

"...I'm holding it in."

"Can you hold it in?" Du Xiran said in disbelief.

"Yes." Ye Nanning immediately put on an unattainable icy face, "Just like this."

"How amazing." Du Xiran turned around and stared at her face curiously. After looking at her for a long time, he finally saw some clues from her slightly red earlobes. He pondered and said, "Hmm... Is it true that the more nervous you are, the less nervous you act?"

Ye Nanning grabbed the seat belt with both hands and nodded, as obedient as a primary school student.

Du Xiran couldn't help laughing, sat up straight, started the car and asked, "Where are we going to eat?"

"Go back and cook?"

"Forget it, let's eat outside. I'm starving." Du Xiran thought about the store the blogger recommended to her. There was only one tea restaurant left that she hadn't visited yet. She drove over there and said, "See if you can reserve a seat."

"Okay." Ye Nanning knew which store it was as soon as she heard the name. She called the manager directly, gave him a quick explanation and hung up, leaving him no chance to chat.

Du Xiran looked at her in surprise for a few times, and when the traffic light turned red, he looked straight over and asked, "Do you know the manager of this store too?"

Ye Nanning was speechless: "Ah... um."

“Do you eat there often?”

"Um."

"Then it looks delicious?"

"Um."

"I'm looking forward to it." Du Xiran touched the steering wheel in a good mood and tapped it a few times with her fingers. Suddenly, she noticed a strong gaze. She slowly looked over and saw Ye Nanning staring at her hands.

"What are you looking at?"

Ye Nanning hastily retracted her gaze, and then couldn't help but turn her head away silently, begging in a low voice: "Can I, can I take a picture?"

"What photo?"

"The photo of you driving is very beautiful. I want to keep it as a souvenir."

Du Xiran wanted to refuse, but she said she was a good driver...

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ye Nanning took it as a consent and nervously took out his mobile phone, took a picture of her hand, and then greedily took another one, capturing the whole person in the camera.

"It's really beautiful." She looked at the photo.

"Ahem..." Du Xiran glanced at the phone screen, but unfortunately couldn't see anything, "Is it beautified?"

"No."

"......" Du Xiran ordered, "Delete it."

Ye Nanning held the phone to her chest like a child, her face very serious: "No, I'm afraid the beauty effect will be distorted. The real President Du looks best."

Du Xiran raised his eyebrows secretly with pride. No matter what, anyone who heard flattery would feel happy, let alone being praised by such a beautiful girl. The level of happiness was incomparable.

After arriving at the restaurant, the manager came out to greet them personally, but Ye Nanning hardly spoke to him and asked him to do other things after they ordered the dishes.

Du Xiran said with emotion: "It's so convenient to follow you out to eat. I don't need to worry about what to eat. I can just wait for the delicious food."

Ye Nanning took the opportunity to invite him: "Then you can come out to eat with me more often. I know a lot of delicious food."

Du Xiran was about to agree, but then he remembered that their relationship was a bit awkward, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Ye Nanning:嘤.

However, Du Xiran did realize another problem. She had always looked for Ye Nanning to cook with her, and Ye Nanning was a qualified dining partner. But now she couldn't continue to ask Ye Nanning to accompany her to eat everywhere. Isn't this just keeping her hanging?

Looks like I need to change my dining partner.

After thinking about it, she actually thought of going to a food blogger whom she had never met before.

I have to say that bloggers are the best choice. They can cook and know a lot of hidden gems. They are also online friends, so they don’t mix up real life stuff. It’s perfect for us to have a meal together.

What’s more, the other party is from City B. We have been chatting for such a long time, it would be nice to make an appointment to meet in person.

Thinking of this, she opened Weibo and, for the first time, invited netizens to meet in person.

Dududu: [Where do you live in City B? ]

Just as the message was sent, Ye Nanning, who was sitting opposite, suddenly moved and hurriedly picked up the phone. She looked over in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing, I just want to play with my phone." Ye Nanning said quickly, put the phone under the table, secretly checked the messages, then stole a glance at Du Xiran, turned the vibration mode to silent, and buried her head in typing.

Grandpa under the tree: [What’s wrong? 】

Dududu: [I want to invite you to dinner, is it convenient for you? ]

Grandpa under the tree: [Σ(xue克"Why did you invite me to dinner?]

Dududu:

Grandpa under the tree: [o(╥﹏╥)o I don’t dare]

Dududu: [Why?]

Grandpa under the tree: [I’m ugly, forget it, let’s not see each other]

Dududu: [What’s the importance of appearance? We are making friends, not dating.]

"Your dishes have been served, please enjoy." said the waiter with a smile.

They both looked up from their phones at the same time, looked at each other, then silently put down their phones and started eating.

Du Xiran started eating and praised the food highly, but she found that the other party did not agree with her this time. Instead, he was a little absent-minded, as if he was thinking about something important. She called out, "Ye Nanning, Ye Nanning."

Ye Nanning raised her head: "Ah?"

"Eat quickly, what are you thinking about?"

Ye Nanning drank a sip of Hong Kong-style milk tea and said, "I'm thinking... I won't tell you."

Du Xiran rolled his eyes at her.

After finishing the meal, Du Xiran received a message from the client, and walked out with her, saying, "We'll go to the West District tomorrow. Actually, the deal has been almost finalized, so you don't have to go."

"Oh my god, having more people is always useful." Ye Nanning said.

Du Xiran had no choice but to agree. Anyway, they were in the same company and there was no way to avoid each other completely. She said, "Don't dress too beautifully tomorrow."

"Why?" Ye Nanning subconsciously thought that the client was a lecher.

Du Xiran gave her a meaningful look and said, "I'm afraid you want to seduce me."

Ye Nanning choked: "Then you see, do I have this chance?"

Du Xiran carefully looked at her facial features and snorted reservedly: "Generally speaking, beautiful women are far less lethal to me than delicious food."

Ye Nanning smiled: "What if she is a beautiful woman who is very good at cooking?"

Du Xiran: “.”

Du Xiran felt that Ye Nanning was starting to act a little naughty, and wondered if some strange switch was turned on when she confessed her love.

After returning home, Du Xiran remembered that the conversation with the blogger had been interrupted. She opened her phone and found that there was no reply from the other end.

Perhaps the invitation was a bit abrupt for the other party, so she had to put the matter aside for the time being and casually mentioned the important events of the past two days.

She really wanted to find someone to talk to, but the people close to her were Du Heruo and Zhang Mishuang. The former was obviously not a good person to confide her feelings to, and the latter knew Ye Nanning and was not very good at talking. It would be bad if she went directly to Ye Nanning to gossip.

Then, netizens are the best people to talk to.

Dududu: [By the way, do you still remember the intern I told you about? ]

Grandpa under the tree: [Remember, you have mentioned it many times罒ω罒]

Dududu: [......]

Grandpa under the tree: [What happened to her? ]

Dududu: [She confessed her love to me.]

Grandpa under the tree: [Oh wow! ]

Dududu: [What should I do? ]

Grandpa under the tree: [Promise her! Don’t be a coward! ]

Dududu: [? ]

Grandpa under the tree: [⊙v⊙]
