Chapter 4: Meeting an Old Friend Again
When Xu Yangyang woke up in the familiar room, Jiang Runan was gone. She looked at the time and it was already seven o'clock.
Lushuiyuan is a villa located on the outskirts of the city, far from the company, so she needs to leave early.
Rubbing her sore thighs, Xu Yangyang grunted twice with her teeth bared. After being brought back by Jiang Runan last night, they did it several times. She didn't know when it ended.
After staying in the bathroom for a long time, most of the time was spent covering up the marks. Xu Yangyang specially picked out a long dress with a simple cut and no trademark from the closet.
Every season, Jiang Runan would have someone send her a batch of new clothes, bags and jewelry.
But those are too expensive. Xu Yangyang was holding her breath in her heart and rarely wore them. There was no way today. She had always prepared her luggage in advance when she came here in the past, but this time it happened suddenly.
When I arrived at the company, it was just time for work.
Xu Yangyang is one of the many women in Jiang Runan's secretariat.
She had worked hard to get in after graduation. What did Jiang Linan say when he found out about it?
"You stay at home, I can support you."
Thinking of this, Xu Yangyang curled up a sneer at the corner of his lips. Perhaps in Jiang Runan's heart, he always felt that he was just a canary in captivity.
No independent personality.
She just wanted to be closer to him and would be satisfied if she could just look at him a few more times.
However, in Jiang Linan's heart, her love was insignificant.
While thinking, Xu Yangyang glanced at the president's office, but there was no sign of Jiang Linan.
She was confused.
Zhang Yu from next door came over and asked mysteriously, "Yangyang, where do you think Mr. Jiang went today?"
Xu Yangyang shook her head, looking indifferent, "I don't know."
The person who slept with me last night needs someone to tell him where he is.
Xu Yangyang's lips curled up in a hint of sarcasm, which disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Yu is a gossip expert in the secretariat and is very well-informed.
"He accompanied his fiancée to a foreign country to get a dress fitted. It is said that he will ask a master to do the work. How envious are the rich people's lives? I didn't expect the boss to be so considerate. I heard that the president's fiancée is also a gentle and beautiful rich girl. My Cinderella dream is about to end." Zhang Yu covered his chest, feeling heartbroken.
Gentle and beautiful?
Xu Yangyang recalled the appearance in her memory.
There is a little bit...
Watching her playful behavior, Xu Yangyang smiled slightly, "Well, the boss is not here, so we can't be lazy. Work hard, and you will meet your Mr. Right."
Zhang Yu exclaimed, "Yangyang, among all the secretaries, married or unmarried, you're the most beautiful, yet you have the least desire for President Jiang. You're truly strong, I'm impressed."
Xu Yangyang sighed and pushed Zhang Yu back to her seat.
Then he turned on the phone and immersed himself in his work, but his hands were shaking slightly as he typed on the keyboard.
This revealed her emotions.
The emotions hidden deep in Xu Yangyang's eyes shattered bit by bit, and her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, causing a sharp pain.
I can only pinch my thighs from time to time to make myself more awake.
In the company, she and Jiang Runan are just ordinary superiors and subordinates. Only by not revealing her love for him can she keep her job.
But at this moment, she was thinking, should she stay?
After a hard day at the company, Xu Yangyang returned to her rental house, washed up, sat in front of the computer desk, and typed her resignation letter.
She clenched her fists, feeling mixed emotions.
Jiang Linan paid her a good salary of 300,000 yuan a year, and she wouldn't be able to earn that much elsewhere after resigning.
While I was hesitating, I received a text message from my mother with an address, asking her to go there for a blind date the next day. Her tone was very firm and there was no room for maneuver.
Xu Yangyang sighed and agreed.
It was her mother who raised her and put in a lot of hard work, so Xu Yangyang usually wouldn't disobey her.
Let’s go over there and deal with it tomorrow.
The next morning, Xu Yangyang went out in casual clothes and without makeup. Although it was a bit impolite, she didn't care in order to ruin the blind date.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a man in a white suit and gold-rimmed glasses sitting not far away. There was a magazine on the table in front of him.
This is the agreed code.
Xu Yangyang looked at the man, who was so formal, and felt a little embarrassed. She stepped forward and asked, "Hello, are you Mr. Jin?"
Jin Huaixu looked up. He had a handsome face, with his fine hair half covering his eyebrows. His eyes were bright and his brows were full of gentleness.
It's a completely different temperament from Jiang Runan's domineering and indifferent nature.
"Hello, I'm Jin Huaixu, Miss Xu Yangyang, nice to meet you~" Jin Huaixu stood up and stretched out his hand.
Xu Yangyang squeezed it lightly and then let go.
Jin Huaixu was very gentlemanly. He quickly came over, pulled out the chair, and invited Xu Yangyang to sit down.
Xu Yangyang was a little nervous. After sitting down, she said impatiently, "Mr. Jin, I'm sorry. My mother forced me to come here for the blind date. Actually, my focus is still on my career."
Jin Huaixu seemed completely unsurprised and only chuckled faintly, "Haha, it's okay, it's okay. I just didn't expect me to be so unattractive. But it doesn't matter. Since we can't go on a blind date, can we be friends?"
"Ah?" Xu Yangyang opened her mouth slightly.
"What? I can't even make friends? I'm so ugly that I'm unpopular."
Seeing Jin Huaixu's face with a smile as warm as spring breeze, she felt very comfortable and gentle, and she could also hear the joke in his tone.
Xu Yangyang pursed her lips and smiled, "No, no, I'm very happy to be your friend."
Jin Huaixu said calmly, "Don't worry, Miss Xu. We can just sit here and deal with the elders later."
Xu Yangyang nodded. She had thought it would be very troublesome, but she didn't expect it to be so smooth. She also had a better impression of Jin Huaixu.
The two people talked about work and personal hobbies, and found that they had many common interests.
Their topics flowed like water, and before they knew it, they had been chatting for a long time.
Xu Yangyang has always been cautious, but others see her as aloof. Coupled with her flamboyant appearance, she has few friends and is perhaps even unpopular.
She was very happy to have a like-minded friend.
"...Do you agree? Whenever a truly captivating play is performed, the protagonist, the center of attention, displays a particularly intense expression on his or her face, and the audience unconsciously imitates it..."
The two of them made an appointment to go to the theater to watch a play together next time.
While they were chatting happily, a woman behind them suddenly screamed, "Anan, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Yangyang felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. She turned her head and looked over. Her eyes met directly with a pair of pupils filled with anger.
Her heart tightened.
