Chapter 59 I hope you ask me for these things
Yu Huan took the phone, his eyes a little panicked, "I...I have to."
"Go ahead." Meng Han understood what she meant, raised his chin slightly, and gestured towards the door.
Yu Huan quickly left the office with the phone.
She didn't dare answer the phone after leaving the office. She knew her mother's voice well, and a wall couldn't block her voice.
She didn't answer the phone until she reached the bathroom.
"Mother..."
"Why haven't you come back yet so late today!" a questioning voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I sent you a message. There was an urgent meeting at the company, and it hasn't finished yet."
"When are you going to send it to me..." The person on the other end said halfway, perhaps seeing the message Yu Huan had sent earlier, so he held back the rest of the words and changed it to, "What kind of company is it that doesn't let employees go home so late at night! Come back early after you're done, and don't run around everywhere!"
"Yeah, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Huan put away his phone and looked at the person in the mirror. There were still traces of tears on his face and a blush that had not yet faded.
The phone call did not affect her mood at all. The corners of her mouth rose involuntarily, with no sign of falling.
Even she herself couldn't help but find it magical.
She once thought that nothing in this world could soothe her fear of her parents.
But now, in the face of the happiness that Meng Han brought her, the things she once feared were no longer scary.
“It’s amazing.”
Murmuring softly, she remembered that Meng Han was still waiting for her in the office. She quickly tidied herself in front of the mirror and left the bathroom.
As soon as she walked to her workstation, she saw Meng Han leaning against her workstation, looking down at her desk.
The tie and jacket were back in place, and he had become Mr. Meng again, a man in a high position, and the distance between them was widened again.
Yu Huan felt a little regretful in her heart, she knew that today was over.
Meng Han heard the voice and looked up. "Pack your things. I'll take you home."
"Okay, Mr. Meng." Yu Huan walked to his workstation to pack his bag. His eyes inadvertently fell on his desk and he saw the display stand he had put back on the table.
Was he just looking at that display stand?
"Are you ready?" he asked.
Yu Huan retracted his gaze and said, "Okay, let's go."
On the way from the company to the car, Yu Huan had been thinking about one thing in his mind. He didn't speak carefully until he got in the car.
He called out his special name.
Although she was the first to call him that, Yu Huan still felt a little awkward and embarrassed when she said it out loud.
Until he heard Meng Han's slight response from his nose, all the awkwardness turned into joy.
"Yeah." He was concentrating on driving and responded casually, as if the two of them were already used to this address.
This atmosphere gave Yu Huan more courage. She spoke without hesitation, "You can just ask for whatever you want. Then... I want a piece of calligraphy written by you, is that okay?"
Ever since she accidentally saw his handwriting, Yu Huan had this idea. The words on the table were also picked out by her from countless fonts. She felt that it was the most similar to the handwriting he wrote at the beginning.
She didn't like calligraphy, she just wanted to own something he had made with his own hands, so that she would feel that their relationship was more real.
She thought it was just a simple request and she never expected Meng Han to refuse.
"Can't."
He refused decisively and directly, without even any excuses or reasons, which caught Yu Huan off guard.
"Why...why?" She was puzzled. It was just a few words. Was it such a difficult thing?
Or is he a hidden calligrapher whose calligraphy is worth a fortune in a field she doesn't understand?
"You don't need to know the reason." It was still a decisive refusal, like a cold knife, severing the already fragile relationship between the two.
After finally feeling a little closer, Yu Huan once again felt the distance between her and Meng Han.
It was just that she thought she was close to him, but in fact she did not receive any preferential treatment from him.
Feeling sad, she sat in her seat silently without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the car was a little heavy, and Meng Han also felt it. He spoke again: "I can give you something else, a bag, jewelry, or anything else."
Yu Huan didn't want these things, and she was also worried that Meng Han would misunderstand that she was close to him for material reasons, so she quickly explained, "I didn't start with you because of these things."
The traffic light was red, Meng Han stopped the car and looked sideways at her, "I know."
Yu Huan felt slightly relieved. He just had this ability. A few simple words could soothe her anxiety, but also stir up her emotions.
"But I wish you would ask me for these things."
"Why?"
“Because it’s purer that way.”
Yu Huan vaguely understood the meaning of his words. He was telling her that what he wanted was a simple relationship without any emotional involvement.
It would be better for him if it could be turned into a transaction in exchange for money.
So he was worried that she would ask him for affection?
This is why he has always deliberately drawn a clear line between himself and her.
Yu Huan suddenly became cheerful and his mood was no longer as low as before.
Looking sideways at Meng Han, she leaned forward slightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm very well behaved and won't cross the line."
Meng Han looked at the pale face with a flattering smile on it, as well-behaved and lovable as ever.
This is especially true for spoken words.
She is very naive and smart. She can understand the hidden meanings in his words at the first time, but she does not try to be smart. Instead, she follows his wishes obediently.
He likes this kind of obedience, but also wants to destroy it.
The green light came on, he looked away, stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove away.
The car stopped at the same spot as last time. As Yu Huan unbuckled his seatbelt, Meng Han said, "Wait for me in the car."
As he said that, he opened the car door and got out.
Yu Huan realized what he was going to do and when she wanted to call him, it was too late as he had already walked away.
Sure enough, he went into a roadside pharmacy and came out again with a plastic bag from the pharmacy in his hand.
After he got back in the car, Yu Huan said, "You don't need to buy medicine next time. The last supply hasn't been used up yet."
