Chapter 12



Pan Lie did not show up at the restaurant over the weekend, which surprised Ji Yun. She had been very optimistic about this young man, but after hearing what her daughter said, she backed off.

Ji Yun was very disappointed.

It seems that he has no perseverance.

Ji Yun was unhappy, but Wen Lixin was looking at cars on his mobile phone with great interest.

"How much savings do we have at home?" Wen Lixin asked since his wife manages the money.

"What for?" Ji Yun asked unhappily.

"Buy a car for Ruoruo! I think Audi is nice. Our family has... 400,000, right?" The mortgage was paid off a few years ago, so it should be about this amount.

When it comes to doting on a daughter, no one can compare to Wen Lixin. Ji Yun rolled his eyes: "Even if Ruoruo learns to drive, she's a novice, and you buy her an Audi?" It's face-saving to drive it out, but this is not clothes, which cost a few thousand dollars, but hundreds of thousands.

"What's the big deal? You can buy insurance."

Ji Yun: ...

Just wait and see, my daughter will definitely not want it.

As expected, Wen Ruo didn’t dare to drive such a high-end car.

"Once I learn how to do it, I can just buy one worth tens of thousands of dollars, or a second-hand one." She knows her own limitations.

Wen Lixin felt that he was not worthy of his daughter: "Second-hand cars have many hidden dangers, so don't buy blindly... Ruoruo, what are you afraid of? If you get a driver's license, it proves that you can drive, then of course you can drive a good car."

Wen Ruo said with a bitter face: "Dad, don't be impatient, wait until I learn it, okay? What if it takes too long..."

One of her classmates was smarter than her and took the exam several times before he passed.

Wen Lixin thought for a moment and said, "Next week, bring a few cartons of cigarettes with you and be a little sweet."

Wen Ruo: ...You have to bribe to learn how to drive.

Ji Yun brought a package and asked, "What's this from your cousin?"

Wen Ruo opened it and found that there were clothes inside, a small black woolen skirt and a colorful striped sweater.

Before she said anything, Ji Yun was already praising her: "Yueyue has good taste, the matching is so good, try it on and see."

Wen Ruo went to the bedroom to try it.

After coming out, Ji Yun's eyes lit up and Wen Lixin frowned slightly.

"It's just right to wear to work tomorrow!" Ji Yun decided immediately.

If Pan Lie doesn't work, there are other guys.

Wen Ruo's company is a large listed company, and I don't believe that there are no other suitors.

Wen Lixin saw through his wife's sinister intentions. When he saw his daughter go in, he said dissatisfiedly: "The skirt is a bit short. I don't think it's suitable."

Old antique, Ji Yun refuted: "When we were talking, you wished I wouldn't wear it."

Wen Lixin's face turned red: "What nonsense!"

"She's 22 years old, what's wrong with wearing a short skirt? Besides, can it be considered short? Wen Lixin, if you still don't talk about it when Ruoruo turns 29, I'll see how you cry." Ji Yun ignored him, put on an apron and went to wash the dishes.

Wen Lixin was almost angered to death by his wife.

How could Ruoruo from their family not talk about it at the age of 29? He was afraid that her naivety would get hurt.

However, the more beautiful her daughter grows, the more she can no longer hide it. Wen Lixin prays silently that he hopes she can meet a good boy.

My cousin's wife gave birth at noon today, and both mother and daughter are safe.

Lu Xingyun went to visit carrying the clothes he had just bought at the mall.

Qi Zhen had just woken up, holding the baby in his arms, staring at it intently. His cousin Lu Xun was beside his wife, with an arm around her shoulders. The two of them were talking about something, but they were all smiling.

Once upon a time, my cousin was a tough criminal policeman with no tenderness in his heart. But when he met my cousin's wife, he changed completely.

Just as Lu Xingyun was about to walk in, his mother Zhang Yin's voice came from behind him: "When can you let me hold my granddaughter like your cousin?"

His parents arrived too.

Lu Xingyun smiled and said, "Then you have to wait another five years."

"Why does it take five years?" Zhang Yin wondered.

"I'm 24 this year, and my cousin is 29. If he wants to be like my cousin, won't he have to wait another five years?"

"You little rascal!" Zhang Yin was angry and slapped him. "Did I say I would give birth when I was as old as your cousin..." She asked her husband for help. "Look at how frivolous he is. Give him a good scolding!"

"Cousin, cousin, congratulations." Before Lu Shenxiu could speak, Lu Xingyun had already hidden inside and opened his arms, "Let me hug my little niece."

Lu Xun said disdainfully: “Can you hug me?” Don’t hurt his daughter.

Qi Zhen also refused to give her one: "If you want to hold a baby, go give birth to one yourself."

Lu Xingyun: ...

Zhang Yin came in: "Zhenzhen, you must rest well during this period, take good care of yourself after the confinement, and don't rush to work."

Lu Xingyun was anxious: "Writing a script is not a heavy task, right?"

It’s really hard to change, so I’d better leave it to her cousin’s wife.

Lu Xun refused: "She hasn't been able to write scripts lately," he warned Lu Xingyun, "Don't set your sights on her."

Qi Zhen knew why Lu Xingyun said that just now, and suggested: "Xingyun, you are the original author, it will be easier for you to change the script than for others, you have some confidence."

Lu Shenxiu didn't care about the money he earned from writing novels: "The company should be the most important thing. You can treat this as a hobby, but you don't have to worry about it. Xingyun, Cheng Rui will be handed over to you in the future. You have to know the importance of it."

"Okay, okay, why are you nagging me?" Zhang Yin felt sorry for the child. "He has a talent in this area. It's not something that ordinary people can do."

"Yes, uncle, Xingyun's novels are very popular." Qi Zhen chimed in and asked Lu Xingyun, "What do you think is difficult to change?"

"Don't you understand? It's the same as last time."

Oh, emotional drama.

Qi Zhen smiled: "You should go and have a relationship. Tell me what kind of person you like and I'll introduce one to you."

Lu Xingyun: ...

But a shadow emerged in his mind, tall and thin, with watery eyes as if they had been washed by rain.

Why did you think of her? Lu Xingyun frowned.

Zhang Yin also came up at this time: "Yes, I asked him to fall in love a long time ago, but he just wouldn't listen..."

Lu Xingyun felt that he couldn't stay any longer.

It was originally a consultation on adaptation, but it turned out to be completely distorted.

Goodbye.

Lu Xingyun said a few perfunctory words and left the hospital.

On Monday, Wen Ruo went to work wearing new clothes, which attracted praise from her colleagues.

"This looks like it belongs to EZ, right?" Zhang Lu recognized it immediately. "Wow, this sweater costs thousands of dollars."

Her cousin was rich, so it was nothing to her, but it was a huge expense to Wen Ruo, and she certainly wouldn't be willing to buy it herself.

"My cousin gave it to me." She called her cousin yesterday to thank her. Her cousin said she would give her another set next time, but she refused in a panic.

"That's great!" Zhang Lu envied Wen Ruo, this little sister. Not only did her parents love her very much, but even her cousin was so friendly to her.

"This child looks blessed." Dai Yan, a colleague in her forties, touched her sweater and wondered how many Huiyang University graduates could get into their company? It is because Wen Ruo is lucky and looks likable that she gets this job.

When Lu Xingyun came in, he saw them all surrounding Wen Ruo.

"Manager!" Zhang Lu was the first to notice and hurried back to her desk.

The rest of the people also hurried back to their seats.

He usually came over in the morning to drink a cup of coffee, and Wen Ruo made it and brought it to him.

The short skirt is two centimeters above the knee, revealing her well-proportioned and straight calves. The colorful sweater adds a lot of vitality to her, making her look particularly eye-catching.

Lu Xingyun picked up his coffee and couldn't help but take another look.

Without hiding her gaze, Wen Ruo's face immediately turned red: "Manager, is there anything else?"

Just now her colleagues looked at her indifferently, but Lu Xingyun was not like that. She felt that those looks were weighty and heavy.

She was blushing for no apparent reason. Lu Xingyun was amused and asked, "Why are you blushing?"

"It's not red," Wen Ruo covered her face, "No...it's hot, very hot."

Is it still hot in November?

Lu Xingyun thought, he didn’t feel hot even though he was still wearing his windbreaker.

But he didn't continue teasing Wen Ruo. He had to find time to revise the script today and didn't have much time.

Wen Ruo came out and pulled her skirt.

At noon, Lu Xingyun did not come out. Her colleagues all went to eat. She stood at the door and asked, "Manager, what do you want to eat?"

"Order me a meal." He didn't have time to go out for dinner.

The food in the cafeteria was not very good and Lu Xingyun didn’t like it. Wen Ruo looked for a restaurant with high positive reviews on his phone and ordered two dishes and a soup.

That restaurant was very efficient and the food was delivered quickly.

"Manager, it's time to eat."

She reheated the soup in the pantry.

Lu Xingyun walked over.

Wen Ruo ordered him mutton soup and two stir-fried dishes, which were very suitable for this season. But Wen Ruo herself eats the food cooked by Wen's father.

A plate of black pepper mashed potatoes, a plate of green pepper beef, and a bowl of ham and bamboo shoots soup.

She was eating in small bites beside him, and all Lu Xingyun could smell was her fragrance. He suddenly put down his chopsticks.

The man stopped eating. Wen Ruo raised his head and asked, "Is it not tasty?"

"Um."

"Ah..." Wen Ruo didn't expect that a restaurant with such high praise rate would not have good food. What should she do? She looked down at her lunch box, "Then how about, how about..." No, she had already eaten and took a few chopsticks of each dish.

As a result, Lu Xingyun came over with the rice bowl in his hand and said, "Okay."

What's good? Wen Ruo was stunned.

He had already picked up her beef and put it in his mouth.

Wen Ruo:......

A taste that he hadn't tasted for a long time filled his mouth, and Lu Xingyun felt that it tasted much better than that restaurant.

As expected, he is Wen Ruo’s father, his cooking skills are excellent.

Lu Xingyun ate a few bites, and when he saw Wen Ruo didn't move, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You're eating too, what are you standing there for?"

She was afraid it wouldn’t be enough, so this portion was originally for her alone.

Wen Ruo shook her head: "I'm full."

You’re kidding, you’re full after just a few bites? Lu Xingyun scooped a spoonful of mashed potatoes and brought it to her mouth: "Eat it, you're welcome."

Wen Ruo froze completely, unable to speak.

She heard her heart beating so loudly that it seemed as if it was right next to her ear.

Why like a frightened rabbit? Lu Xingyun rested one elbow on the table and held the spoon in one hand: "Why, is this mashed potato poisonous?"

No, it was his current actions that were poisonous. She felt like she was poisoned and couldn't move.

"I don't, don't want to eat..." Wen Ruo finally squeezed out a few words, but suddenly heard footsteps at the door. Zhang Lu and several colleagues came back.

The moment they looked over, they seemed to be under a spell of immobilization.

Then, Zhang Lu turned around and said, "Hey, didn't you say you were going to the bathroom? Why are you here?"

"Yeah yeah."

They disappeared immediately.

Wen Ruo:......

The author has something to say: Zhang Lu: Ruoruo, you are so good, you actually managed to seduce the manager.

Wen Ruo: No, that’s not the case.

Lu Xingyun: Yes.

Wen Ruo:......
