Chapter 75 How about kissing me openly?
Yan Nian doesn't usually drink, but he drank a little tonight with Xu Ke.
I felt a little tipsy after the first glass, but after the second glass my eyes started to wander and I started talking more, but my head was still clear.
Trying hard to chat with Mu Chen.
Xu Ke didn't say much today; she was the one chatting with Mu Chen.
In the past, she had no say and Xu Ke could control the overall situation by himself.
While Xu Ke went to the bathroom, Mu Chen asked, "How are you doing lately?"
Yan Nian put down her knife and fork, pursed her lips and said, "It's much better than before. There's no special reaction."
Mu Chen: "That's good."
The year Yan Nian graduated from university, Mu Chen introduced her to a reliable translation company for a part-time job. After Xu Yiqing found out, she went to talk to him, but she didn't feel comfortable bothering Mu Chen anymore and gradually cut off contact.
She didn't know how Xu Ke and Mu Chen became like this.
Yan Nian asked, "Senior, is there any misunderstanding between you and my sister?"
Hearing this, Mu Chen smiled and said, "She must feel awkward seeing me."
"Hmm?" Yan Nian didn't understand.
Xu Ke and Mu Chen used to call each other brothers, so why would it be awkward?
Mu Chen: "I want to pursue her, but she doesn't agree."
Want to? Killed while still thinking?
Yan Nian said drunkenly: "Then you are pretty miserable."
Mu Chen admitted with a smile: "Indeed, but I haven't given up yet."
So Xu Ke gave up his job at Lingyun and came back to avoid Mu Chen?
Yan Nian picked up the goblet and drank a sip of red wine slowly. Everyone who was familiar with Xu Ke's temper knew that the thing he could not tolerate the most was forcing himself.
However, the only person who could make her feel uncomfortable was probably Mu Chen.
Yan Nian helplessly said "Oh".
Xu Ke happened to come back, and the two of them fell silent.
Yan Nian, under the influence of alcohol, sent Zhou Ran a location message: [I'm here. Have you eaten yet?]
Xu Ke came in and picked up his bag: "Let's go after you finish eating. I have something else to do."
Mu Chen smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Sit for a while."
Xu Ke rolled his eyes in his heart and knew that he couldn't sit down.
Yan Nian didn't get a reply, and stood up a little disappointedly: "By the way, senior, I have something else to do. Could you please take my sister home?"
Xu Ke glared at her: "I have my own car, no need to send me."
Mu Chen: "You just drank some wine, let me take you there!"
The three of them looked at the bottle of red wine on the table. Xu Ke said, "Didn't you drink it too? I'll find a designated driver."
Mu Chen took the car keys from her: "I'm not drunk, let's go!"
You haven't drunk yet, yet you're still ordering. Xu Ke was furious when he saw the back of his head. He pulled Yan Nian with him and said, "Come on, sister. You look drunk. I'll take you to the hotel. I promise not to tell Second Aunt where you are."
Yan Nian was dazed as Xu Ke dragged her to the elevator to the basement level. Then Zhou Ran's message came in: "I'm downstairs where you're having dinner."
Yan Nian saw the message and typed clumsily: [Are you in the underground parking lot?]
Just after the message was sent successfully, Xu Ke excitedly pulled her and said, "Fuck, Nian'er, at nine o'clock, you're the leader."
Yan Nian raised his eyes and saw a slender figure walking towards him.
Yan Nian is nearsighted and had drunk a little alcohol, so when car lights flashed behind him, his eyes couldn't focus quickly, and the scene didn't look real.
I didn't expect him to come, Yan Nian was a little happy for a moment.
Xu Ke asked: "Say hello or not? If not, leave."
Yan Nian said, "He came to see me."
All I heard was Xu Ke asking in a loud voice, surprised: "He, came to see you?"
Yan Nian nodded: "Yes, yes."
Xu Ke asked suspiciously, "What's going on, you two?"
Yan Nian: "I'll explain it to you later."
Zhou Ran slowly approached, nodded slightly to Mu Chen and Xu Ke, and then met those slightly misty eyes.
Mu Chen saw the person coming and said with a smile: "Yan Nian, won't you introduce yourself to us?"
Yan Nian was busy trying to break free from Xu Ke and introduced him to Mu Chen: "Senior, this is my leader, Mr. Zhou Ran."
Then he said to Zhou Ran, "This is Senior Mu Chen."
Mu Chen extended his hand: "Hello."
Zhou Ran raised his hand and shook it back: "Hello."
Xu Ke smiled and said to Zhou Ran, "Excuse me, I have a few words to say to her."
Zhou Ran: "Whatever you want."
Xu Ke pulled Yan Nian away and asked in a low voice, "Do you live with your leader?"
Yan Nian was startled and said softly, "No."
Xu Ke: "Really?"
Yan Nian: "Really."
Xu Ke narrowed his eyes and said, "You haven't been home these days. Isn't that a sign of trouble?"
Yan Nian: “…”
Xu Ke rubbed her waist and threatened: "Hurry up and tell me, or I'll send you home."
Yan Nian didn't dodge her clutches and answered honestly: "I'm chasing him."
Hearing this, Xu Ke became uneasy: "What? You're pursuing him? You mean it hasn't worked out yet?"
Yan Nian boldly admitted: "Yeah."
Xu Ke curled his lips: "Then why did he come to you? If I were him, I would definitely wait for you to chase me in a cool and aloof manner, and I would not take the initiative to come to you."
Yan Nian patted her: "Which side are you on?"
Xu Kelu smiled. The fact that they had a past was partly due to her. "So are you guys in a relationship now?"
Yan Nian didn't know how to explain it: "I can't spoil it now, I'll tell you later."
Xu Ke was silent for a moment, then asked, "Have you explained everything to him?"
Yan Nian lowered his eyes and stared at the ground: "Not yet, I'll find a chance to tell him."
Xu Ke's expression was complicated: "He won't take this opportunity to retaliate against you, right?"
What kind of logic is this? Yan Nian angrily said, "He's not that kind of person. If he wanted to retaliate, he would have made things difficult for me at work a long time ago."
Xu Ke nodded thoughtfully, "That's true. What are you going to do about Second Aunt? You can't just hide like this forever, right?"
Yan Nian glanced towards Zhou Ran, but couldn't see clearly, and said, "I'll take care of it."
Xu Ke put his arm around her shoulders and walked back: "Okay, then you work hard and try to win over your boss as soon as possible. Call me if you need anything."
When they returned, Xu Ke pushed her towards Zhou Ran and said, "Boss Zhou, I'll leave my sister to you."
Yan Nian lost his balance and leaned towards the person next to him.
Zhou Ran helped her up and replied, "Yeah."
Xu Ke reluctantly let Mu Chen get into his car.
Yan Nian watched them drive away. Not wanting him to see that she was drunk, she pretended to be sober and said to the person next to her, "Let's go!"
Zhou Ran frowned frivolously: "Yeah."
The two walked side by side to where Zhou Ran parked his car. Cars passed by from time to time, and Yan Nian had to take the initiative to move behind Zhou Ran and follow him silently.
Perhaps the wine was a bit intoxicating, Yan Nian was distracted as she watched his back, thinking of what Xu Ke had said, "If I were him, I would definitely wait in aloofness for you to chase me, and I wouldn't take the initiative to find you."
Yan Nian always felt uneasy, as there were some things that had not been explained to him clearly.
Nor did she extend her hand to him.
Her eyes fell on his hands hanging at his sides, and Yan Nian couldn't help but raise her left hand, held it in the air for a moment, and carefully hooked his fingers.
The moment their fingertips touched the warmth, they both froze for a moment. Just as she slowly grasped his hand, that broad palm in turn tightly grasped hers. Yan Nian choked and heard his laughter from his nose: "If you want to hold hands, be bold. Are you tickling me?"
Yan Nian's palms were sweating from gripping the car. He stared blankly ahead for a moment, feeling that something was a little unreal. He said softly, "Zhou Ran, I've been drinking and can't drive."
Zhou Ran lowered his gaze to her thick, fluttering eyelashes. "How much did you drink?"
Yan Nian estimated: "Two glasses, red wine."
Zhou Ran's voice became softer: "Can you still walk? I'll carry you."
Parking spaces in the mall were tight, and he had a hard time finding one after entering. It was a bit far from the elevator entrance, and it would take a while to walk there.
Yan Nian shook his head: "I can walk."
If you carry her on your back, you can't hold hands.
Walking to the front of the car, Zhou Ran opened the passenger door for her, and Yan Nian reluctantly let go of his hand.
Zhou Ran went to the driver's seat and closed the door. He turned around to look at the person next to him, who had fallen asleep peacefully.
Zhou Ran leaned over and gently pulled the seat belt buckle on.
The car was hot and stuffy, so he started the car and turned on the air conditioner. He didn't leave in a hurry, but stared at the person next to him for a while.
Zhou Ran suddenly smiled, moved closer to her, and said softly, "Are you so shy that you fell asleep?"
Zhou Ran seemed to be mumbling to himself, "You were so brave when we were having a secret kiss, why are you so scared just holding hands?"
The person in the passenger seat was still breathing evenly and had no reaction at all.
Zhou Ran carefully brushed the hair off her cheek and said, "I want to discuss something with you. I'll make you a regular employee. From now on, when you kiss me, be more open and aboveboard. How about that?"
