Chapter 74 Xu Kemuchen
The next day at 8:40.
Yan Nian sent a message to Zhou Ran but he didn't reply. He probably hasn't gotten up yet.
The car keys are still with her, so she has to go over.
Yan Nian went downstairs and bought breakfast near the hotel and went to Zhou Ran's house.
When they arrived at Haiyue Dushang to register their identity, Yan Nian had been there before. The security guard on duty happened to be the one who had helped her call Zhou Ran to verify the situation. He knew her and let her in directly after registering her identity.
Yan Nian entered the password for his door lock, closed the door quietly, and then looked for slippers in the shoe cabinet.
Zhou Ran appeared in the living room with a toothbrush in his mouth. He looked at the person who came with a tired look, and without giving her the chance to say "good morning", he returned to the bathroom and continued to wash.
"..." Yan Nian paused, and forced a smile at the air: "Good morning!"
Put breakfast on the table and get a bowl from the cupboard.
Zhou Ran came out already packed and sat down at the dining table to eat breakfast.
The only sound was chewing.
After eating, Zhou Ran went back to the house to get something, and Yan Nian stood by the kitchen, worried.
Yan Nian asked, "Zhou Ran, don't you have anything to wash dishes at home?"
Zhou Ran came out and saw her standing by the cupboard with a blank look on her face. She wanted to do something to please him even though she had never touched housework before. She curled her lips and said, "No, let's go. Auntie will come over to wash it later."
"..." Yan Nian had no choice but to put down the unwashed dishes, picked up her bag and followed, "When will Auntie come?"
Zhou Ran: "Right away."
Every two days, the aunt from Dongcheng would come to clean for him, and she happened to be coming today.
Yan Nian felt a little relieved.
Go to the company together and separate in the office area.
Yan Nian joined the translation team. Xu Xinrui ran up from behind and said to her, "Yan Nian, your mother wants to see you. She's downstairs right now. Please come down."
Yan Nian's nerves immediately tensed up and he turned to look at her.
Seeing that she had just arrived, Xu Xinrui asked, "Didn't you see her when you came up? She must have been waiting for quite a while."
Yan Nian replied: "I didn't see it."
"Oh!" Xu Xinrui patted her shoulder: "Go quickly!"
Xu Yiqing has been coming to see her frequently recently, and she basically knows everyone in the translation team. If the security guard downstairs hadn't stopped her from entering, she would have rushed up there this morning.
Xu Yiqing is a respectable person when he is outside and generally does not do anything impulsive.
Yan Nian put her bag away, took out her phone and sent a message to Xu Yiqing: [Go home quickly, I won't be coming down.]
Xu Yiqing replied immediately: [I have something to tell you when I come down.]
Yan Nian: [I won't leave here. Divorce your father. He doesn't want anything. I'll stay with you until he moves away.]
Xu Yiqing: [Come down, I'll go home and sign.]
Yan Nian knew this was her usual trap and was unable to communicate: [Then calm down first! ]
After sending the message, he turned off the phone and put it on his workstation and left.
Yan Nian spent all her free time talking to Xu Ke about the dinner party in the evening.
He almost used bombardment to force Xu Ke to agree.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Yan Nian left the translation team and ran into Zhou Ran who had just returned from a meeting.
Following behind him was Gu Pingping and a sales manager. Yan Nian hurriedly called out, "Boss Zhou."
Zhou Ran stopped and said something to Gu Pingping and the manager. The two nodded and left first.
Yan Nian went over and said, "Boss Zhou, I have to meet someone tonight, so I can't take you home."
Zhou Ran hummed nonchalantly, and Yan Nian took the initiative to explain the situation: "He was a senior from Lingyun's Psychology Department."
Zhou Ran's eyes darkened, and he said, "Senior?"
The tone was neither salty nor bland, as if he was asking her, but also as if he was repeating her words.
Yan Nian wasn't sure what he meant, so she hummed, "I'll go with my cousin and tell you about it."
Zhou Ran said coldly: "Oh! Then you go..."
Every time he said "oh", Yan Nian felt a little nervous. It must be the sequelae left by Xu Yiqing. She always felt that if she went, Zhou Ran would be angry.
Yan Nian hesitated for a long time and asked, "Do you have anything else to do? If not, you can come with me."
Zhou Ran smiled and said, "Yes."
Yan Nian didn't insist: "Okay, then I'll leave first."
Zhou Ran suppressed his smile and nodded: "Well, be careful!"
Yan Nianxian and Xu Ke reunited.
Xu Ke looked different today than usual. She obviously put a lot of thought into her makeup and had air bangs.
When he saw her, he sighed first: "It's so uncomfortable."
Yan Nian was surprised to see how thin she was: "You've lost weight so fast, aren't you on a diet?"
Since I got a gym membership, the results have been significant. Now I can wear a slim-fitting white shirt and ripped jeans, and I look a lot thinner than before.
Yan Nian remembered that Xu Ke was a fairly well-proportioned girl in high school, with a face full of collagen and baby fat. In college, she listened to her roommate's advice and took pills to lose weight, but she didn't lose weight. Instead, she overate and stayed up late, becoming a chubby girl.
Uncle and aunt also attributed it to Xu Yiqing for raising her so well.
Xu Ke said confidently, "No way, I'm keeping fit and slim. I go to the gym every day after get off work!"
Xu Ke flirted with her and said, "I found a very handsome coach to supervise my meals every day."
Yan Nian smiled and said, "That will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
After Xu Ke lost weight, her round face became more defined and she looked more lively.
The two met up and went to the western restaurant where Mu Chen had made an appointment.
Xu Ke took a deep breath: "It's so uncomfortable."
Yan Nian had heard her say this three times along the way, and every time she asked Xu Ke, he shook his head and said it was okay.
Yan Nian paused and asked worriedly, "Tell me the truth, are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Ke whispered in her ear, "The waist of these pants is a bit tight."
"..." Yan Nian quickly glanced at the jeans tucked into his shirt, "There's a mall nearby, why don't we go buy a new set."
Xu Ke said with great determination, "No way, today I'm going to show that old dog how skinny I am."
Old dog was her usual name for Mu Chen.
"..." Yan Nian didn't know what she was competing with Mu Chen for: "But it's so uncomfortable?"
Xu Ke waved his hand: "It's okay, I can hold on. Let's go!"
Yan Nian didn't know whether it was right to ask her out today.
Xu Ke pulled her inside.
When the two of them went in, Mu Chen had already arrived.
Yan Nian was the first to see him.
Mu Chen and Xu Ke are the same age, 28. His eyes are very gentle when he looks at people, which makes people completely convinced of him. He is not handsome, but the words "refreshing" and "reliable" are the most appropriate to describe him.
Not much has changed from a few years ago.
When Mu Chen saw the two of them, his eyes went straight to Xu Ke.
Yan Nian greeted: "Senior, I've been waiting for a long time!"
Mu Chen stood up and said, "Not long, come and sit down."
Xu Ke sat down opposite him. The moment his butt touched the stool, he felt as if his internal organs were being squeezed and he couldn't breathe. He looked at the person opposite him calmly and composedly.
Mu Chen sat down and said with a gentle smile, "Long time no see, Coco."
Xu Ke didn't pay any attention to him, but his loud voice became more subdued: "Long time no see."
Yan Nian looked at her in surprise. When did she become so ladylike?
