Chapter 67



The two of them finished their meal outside and went back together. On the way, Ye Nanning looked at Du Xiran from time to time, hesitated all the way, and did not dare to ask her about the specific details of her meeting with Wu Yuhong.

After arriving home, Ye Nanning opened the door and found Du Xiran had followed. She turned back in surprise: "Mr. Du... do you want to come in for a drink? I bought a few more bottles of wine from last time."

"Okay." Du Xiran walked in, changed his shoes skillfully, and found a comfortable sitting position on the sofa.

Not long after, Ye Nanning came over with the wine, poured it into two glasses, and then clinked the glasses together.

Du Xiran took two sips, savoring the aroma of the wine, then took out a watch from her bag and put it on the coffee table: "Here you go."

Ye Nanning picked it up and looked at it, and asked curiously, "Is it for me?"

Du Xiran laughed: "Forgot? This is what you gave to Wu Yuhong. She asked me to give it back to you."

Ye Nanning's face froze, and she put the watch back on the table, muttering, "Why are you giving it back to me?"

"Maybe he wants to apologize to you and seek peace of mind, or maybe he wants to rekindle our relationship with you?" Du Xiran guessed.

"No, she doesn't..." Ye Nanning hesitated for a while, met Du Xiran's understanding eyes, and continued, "She doesn't like women at all."

Du Xiran couldn't help but touch her head: "Then there's nothing to worry about. If she wants to return it, just let her. This watch is quite valuable. You can make some money by selling it second-hand."

Ye Nanning suddenly realized: "Boss Du has a good brain."

Du Xiran smiled and withdrew her hand, but Ye Nanning moved her head closer and kept it against her palm. Finally, afraid that she would take it back completely, she boldly grabbed her hand, rubbed her palm with her head, and then sat back contentedly.

Du Xiran narrowed his eyes slightly: "You are getting bolder and bolder."

Ye Nanning plopped down on the sofa and kowtowed: "I'm sorry, I just can't help myself."

This made Du Xiran laugh. Ye Nanning was really resourceful. Every time she could make her laugh when she was on the verge of getting angry, and her anger would disappear completely.

She twisted her fingers, the touch seemed to still linger on the palm of her hand, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart, and asked casually: "Have you ever given her anything valuable?"

"No more." Ye Nanning raised four fingers, "Really no more, this is a gift from her on her birthday, other times it was just some snacks and clothes, not expensive."

Du Xiran: "You really have a lot of money."

Ye Nanning lowered her head, twisted her fingers, and stammered, "I'm sorry."

Du Xiran was puzzled, raised her chin and looked at her: "Why are you saying sorry to me?"

Ye Nanning's eyes were flustered: "I'm sorry I fell in love with someone else first. If I had known I would meet you, I would definitely wait for you to appear."

Du Xiran felt a ripple in her heart: "You want me to be your first love?"

Ye Nanning's eyes rolled around, finally landing on her face, and she nodded firmly: "But don't worry, I didn't particularly like her before, but I particularly like you now."

Du Xiran put down his hand and rubbed his brow: "It seems that I shouldn't let you drink."

Once she drinks, Ye Nanning becomes extremely bold, making it completely impossible to resist.

Ye Nanning looked at her eagerly, innocent and pitiful, beautiful and cute.

Du Xiran avoided his gaze and asked, "Were you sad at that time?"

"I seemed sad at the time, but it's been so long, I've let it go long ago." Ye Nanning kept staring at her face and smiled suddenly, "But because of your appearance, my world is happy again."

Du Xiran glanced at her, as if burned by her burning gaze. He hurriedly picked up the pillow beside him and covered her face with it: "You are drunk, go to bed quickly."

Sunday is a day to make up for the work. Although it is only a three-day holiday, some people have already developed holiday syndrome and have no energy for the whole morning.

Xu Huan sighed for the eighty-ninth time. While dealing with work matters, he complained, "I feel like I just slept for a few hours. How come I'm in the company again in the blink of an eye?"

Chen Shuimin continued: "I feel the same way. Why do I feel more tired after taking a holiday?"

Lao Wang: "You are not as miserable as me. My wife went out to play with her bestie, and I took care of the baby for three days. My head is still buzzing."

As the three of them were talking, they looked at Ye Nanning, who was supposed to take over the conversation. Instead, they saw her sitting in front of the computer with a bright look in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up from time to time, as if she was possessed.

Xu Huan was shocked and said, "It's over. Could Xiaoye be possessed by a demon? Does work really make her happy?"

Chen Shuimin: "I admire you so much! What a strong mental quality this person must have!"

Lao Wang: "She is young after all. I wonder if she can still maintain this enthusiasm in a few years?"

Ye Nanning looked around and looked at them in confusion: "What were you talking about just now?"

Xu Huan: "...didn't you hear what we were saying?"

Ye Nanning: “No.”

"Then what were you laughing at just now? Is it really work that makes you so happy?"

Ye Nanning smiled but said nothing. She was just reminiscing about the past. She felt that her relationship with President Du had become closer. She was so happy!

During lunch, Hu Jiaxu came to Ye Nanning's seat to have lunch with her again, and Mingshuang was with him.

While eating, Hu Jiaxu reported on the progress of his relationship: "Friends, congratulations, I'm in love!"

Ye Nanning immediately put down her chopsticks and Haibao applauded to congratulate her.

Ming Shuang also said generously: "Not bad, then I'll treat you to afternoon tea this afternoon, order whatever you want."

"Mingshuang, you know, I'm not friends with you because of money." Hu Jiaxu said sincerely, "But who would refuse to be friends with a rich person? Love you!"

Ming Shuang smiled, and then turned his gaze to Ye Nan Ning: "Where's Xiao Ye? How is it going on your side?"

"Yes, Xiaoye, have you and that person developed anything further?" Hu Jiaxu winked and asked, "Did you kiss?"

Ye Nanning quickly shook her head.

"Ah? Not yet? Are you guys confirmed in your relationship?"

Ye Nanning still shook her head.

"Xiao Ye." Hu Jiaxu patted her shoulder heavily, "Are you not able to do it?"

Xiaoye instantly became like a fish out of water. His eyes were lifeless, his limbs were numb, and he wanted to cry but couldn't.

"I never thought you would be rejected." Hu Jiaxu handed her the lemonade from the takeaway meal. "Come on, don't be polite. I'm treating you. Keep up the good work, or find another crooked tree. At least you can't be hanged by a tree."

Ye Nanning pushed the lemon juice back and thought to herself: You are the crooked tree, President Du is just watching.

"I agree with Hu Jiaxu on this point." Mingshuang smiled meaningfully, "You really shouldn't hang yourself on a tree. You should see more of the outside world."

Ye Nanning said calmly: "I'm lazy and stay at home, so I don't want to watch it."

Mingshuang: “…”

Hu Jiaxu was overjoyed: "Xiao Ye, I really like your serious sense of humor."

Ye Nanning reminded her: "I also like the humor of feeding food into one's nostrils while doing two things at the same time."

Hu Jiaxu: “…”

Mingshuang burst out laughing.

Du Xiran, who was eating in the office, suddenly heard a loud noise of fighting. He walked to the door and took a look. He saw Hu Jiaxu laughing and punching Ye Nanning. Ye Nanning protected her head with her hands, but the corners of her mouth were curved with a smile.

Du Xiran smiled lightly and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that someone had finally made a good friend.

With a casual glance, she noticed that Mingshuang, who was sitting on the other side, had been staring at Ye Nanning. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that the look in her eyes was somewhat ambiguous and doting.

Ye Nanning was tossed around for a while before being let go by Hu Jiaxu. She buried her head in her food, and Ming Shuang beside her suddenly asked, "Did you cook all these meals yourself?"

Before Ye Nanning could say anything, Hu Jiaxu was already talking about her strengths like an old mother: "Yes, these bentos are all made by Xiaoye herself, and they are delicious. Isn't she amazing?"

"That's great, can I try it?" Mingshuang asked.

Ye Nanning: "I've eaten."

"It's okay. You haven't touched this one yet." Mingshuang picked up some food from the other side and put it into her mouth. After a moment, she looked surprised. "This taste is a bit unexpected."

"Yeah! I also think her cooking skills are superb!" Hu Jiaxu said supportively.

Mingshuang nodded and smiled: "Xiaoye, can you make me a lunch box?"

Ye Nanning shook her head.

Mingshuang: "I can pay, you can ask for it."

Ye Nanning still refused.

Hu Jiaxu gave a thumbs up and stuck out his tongue at Mingshuang: "My Xiaoye is not someone who would bow down for a few pieces of silver. I have tried all your methods and they are useless. Xiaoye, you can only make lunch boxes for Mr. Du."

"Boss Du?" Ming Shuang looked over there in surprise, and saw a lunch box on Du Xiran's desk. She narrowed her eyes and asked sharply, "What is your relationship?"

Ye Nanning remained silent, and Hu Jiaxu answered for her: "The relationship between superiors and subordinates, and the relationship between neighbors."

"Neighbor?"

"Yes, we only found out about this not long ago." Because Hu Hanqiao reported it, everyone knew that they were neighbors. Hu Jiaxu said mysteriously, "Do you know why Xiaoye didn't bring lunch boxes for others?"

Mingshuang: “Why?”

Ye Nanning also looked at her in disbelief, only to hear her say wittily, "Of course it's because too many people are looking for her! You don't know, when everyone knew that Xiaoye made Mr. Du's delicious lunch box, they all went to look for her. How could she handle it? So don't make things worse."

Ye Nanning: “…” Well done, Hu Jiaxu, you are my real sister!

Mingshuang smiled without saying anything, her expression somewhat complicated, and there was a bit more inquiry in her eyes when she looked at Ye Nanning.

After working overtime in the evening, Ye Nanning and Du Xiran rarely got together to go home after get off work. When she saw someone in the office was about to come out, she immediately turned off her phone and prepared to leave.

The two met at the elevator entrance, and Du Xiran casually asked about his work situation today.

Ye Nanning answered honestly and followed her into the elevator. Just as she was getting excited about their private space, a third person suddenly broke in.

"Wait." Mingshuang flashed in just as the elevator door was about to close.

Du Xiran smelled a fragrance and subconsciously looked at her a few more times. The other party noticed her gaze and said politely: "Mr. Du, what a coincidence."

Du Xiran nodded in greeting, and then saw her walk to stand beside Ye Nanning, and she lifted her long hair intentionally or unintentionally, with a graceful and charming figure.

Like a peacock spreading its tail.

This thought popped up in her mind uncontrollably.

"Xiao Ye, where do you live?" Ming Shuang asked.

Ye Nanning slowly said the name of the community.

"It's quite close to my house. I'll take you back." Mingshuang invited generously.

Ye Nanning glanced at Du Xiran subconsciously, then refused: "No need."

"Why?"

Faced with the persistent questioning, Ye Nanning thought for a moment and asked instead, "Why are you sending me off?"

Unexpectedly, Mingshuang said calmly: "Can't you see? I want to pursue you."

The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.

Ye Nanning was surprised, and Du Xiran also raised his eyebrows in surprise and slowly looked at Mingshuang.

"Are you kidding me?" Ye Nanning said in a low voice.

"I'm not kidding." Mingshuang looked at Du Xiran again, "Mr. Du shouldn't mind that I like women, right?"

"What does it have to do with me?" Du Xiran said calmly.

"See, they don't think it's weird, so what's wrong with me pursuing you?" Ming Shuang turned her head and looked at Ye Nanning's pretty face, smiling, "You're my type, and you happen to be single, so can't I pursue you?"

"But you know that I have someone I like." Ye Nanning frowned.

"What does it matter? She doesn't like you anyway. You can continue to pursue her. As long as we haven't confirmed the relationship, I still have a chance, right?" Mingshuang said word by word.

The elevator door opened, Ming Shuang suddenly leaned over to whisper something in her ear, then walked out first, turned back to look at the two of them who were like two sculptures, and waved: "Goodbye, Xiao Ye, I'm looking forward to the day when you become my girlfriend."

The elevator door opened and closed.

Ye Nanning suddenly came to her senses, quickly pressed the door button, and walked out, looking back awkwardly: "Boss Du, let's go..."

Du Xiran blinked and walked out slowly, but his feet felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead. The atmosphere was very depressing until he got into the car.

"Let me drive it."

Ye Nanning took the initiative to act as the driver. Just as she fastened her seat belt, she heard Du Xiran ask, "What did she whisper to you just now? Was it sweet talk? Or was she planning to pursue you?"
