The sudden confession left Yan Xiluo, who was already at a loss, even more bewildered. She was so nervous that she didn't know what to do with her hands and her heart was pounding wildly.
I've been confessed to before, but I always rejected them outright because I didn't feel anything. I've never felt this way before. Could it be... he has different feelings for me? But we've only met a few times... what does he like about me?
"Ayan, we've only met a few times. You say you like me, but what is it about me that you like?"
Most of the people who liked her in the past did so because she was good-looking, without really understanding her.
"Luo Luo, do you believe in love at first sight? You don't need a reason to like someone, but liking you means liking everything about you. The first time, your decisive and efficient approach when we were discussing a business deal attracted me. The second time, seeing you being harassed at the mall and how you calmly resolved the problem captivated me. The third time, at your house, your smile melted my heart. The fourth time, on Hell Island, seeing you there broke my heart; I wondered what you had been through. The fifth time, on the plane, when you were leaning on the table, your chin resting on it, looking at me with your head tilted, I thought you were so cute, and I wanted to pinch your cheek but was afraid of scaring you. Today, watching you comfort your grandma, I felt like I was seeing what our future life together would be like... So I decided to tell you my feelings."
Seeing Lan Jingyan gazing at her with deep affection and unwavering determination, and hearing him tell her all this, Yan Xiluo was stunned, her mind going completely blank.
This was the first time someone had confessed their feelings to her so earnestly, saying so many touching things, and expressing it all from the bottom of their heart. But she wasn't sure if her feelings for him were love; she only knew that he seemed a little different to her.
"I... Ayan, I've never been in a relationship before, nor have I ever liked anyone. I'm not sure how I feel about you, but I'm willing to give it a try."
Yan Xiluo looked at Lan Jingyan sincerely. Yes, she was willing to give it a try.
Luo Luo said she was willing to try. He was overjoyed when he realized what was happening. He picked up Yan Xiluo and spun her around several times. Yan Xiluo was startled by this action and hurriedly grabbed Lan Jingyan's shoulders.
"Luo Luo, I'm serious about you! You're the first person I've ever liked, and the first person I've ever confessed to. I swear you're the first and the last."
"Mmm." Yan Xiluo nodded slightly.
"Luo Luo, can you tell me why you went to Hell Island to found the Xi Gang? It's so dangerous for a girl like you to go to that place!"
Lan Jingyan wanted to know her story and learn more about her.
"My going there was an accident back then. I don't know where to begin. There are a lot of things involved, and I can't explain them all in a short time. I'll tell you about it little by little later, okay?"
She was telling the truth; it did involve some issues that couldn't be explained in just a few words.
"Okay, let's go back and have dinner."
Lan Jingyan gently took her hand and they walked back to the villa together.
LFY Group
"Oh dear Yueyue! Luoluo hasn't shown up in ages, what's she up to this time!"
At this moment, Li Mufei looked like a resentful woman. Since the last time they discussed cooperation with Lan's Group, Yan Xiluo had not returned to the company.
"Luo Luo must be busy with something. Look at how many times a month she used to come to the company."
An Xinyue had long been used to Yan Xiluo coming to the company two or three times a month, after all, she knew that Yan Xiluo had a lot of things to do.
"Yeah, that's true. I only found out a few days ago in the family group that Luo Luo is the Divine Physician Yin Xin! I was so surprised. Our Luo Luo has so many identities. I bet there are even more we don't know about!"
Yan Xiluo had many identities that her best friends An Xinyue and Li Mufei didn't know. It wasn't that she deliberately hid them; in fact, she had these identities before she even knew them. Who would casually reveal their true identity and boast about who they are all the time?
“I only found out today. My grandfather told me that Luo Luo went to his place to see my grandmother for a medical check-up today.”
"No wonder you haven't had time to come to the company, you've been so busy!"
"Knock knock knock..."
"Enter."
"President Li, President An." Zhang Xinxin came in carrying some documents.
"What's up?"
"President Li, President An, it's like this, there's a fashion design competition in Country F recently, and they'd like to invite designers from our company's fashion department to participate. The winning designs can participate in their fashion show, and there will also be a high amount of prize money. What do you think, should our design department participate?"
"How about this, I'll discuss it with you, Mr. Li, and Mr. Luo, and give you an answer later."
"Okay, Mr. An, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to work now."
"good."
"Yueyue, shall we give Luoluo a call?" After all, Yan Xiluo is number one in fashion design. She personally promoted the two chief designers in the fashion design department, so she has a say.
"Feifei, I think Luoluo should be eating at this time. How about we invite Luoluo out for a get-together later?"
"Okay, let's go eat then? I want to have the spicy hot pot today!"
Li Mufei pulled An Xinyue out of the office.
Lan Family
"Come here, Luo Luo, sit here with Grandma."
"Okay." Wow! Such a big table of dishes, they look and smell delicious...they must all be very tasty!
"Luo Luo, it's just the four of us eating tonight. A Yan's parents are abroad on business. Do you like these dishes? If not, Grandpa will have the chef make more."
"Okay, then I'll try it."
"Come on, Luo Luo, try this fish. Aunt Lu in our family makes an amazing fish dish. I've loved it since I was a child."
Lan Jingyan placed a piece of fish into Yan Xiluo's bowl. It was the belly part of the fish, which had a good texture and few bones.
"Mmm~ It's really good, the flavor is unique!" Yan Xiluo was very happy with this fish.
Lan Jingyan continued to serve her fish.
Lan Weikun and Deng Ling both saw this, nodded in satisfaction, and smiled at each other.
"Come on, Luo Luo, try this bamboo shoot. It was air-freighted from H City this morning. Your Grandpa Lan loves this the most."
"Mmm! So fresh, so crisp! Delicious." Yan Xiluo couldn't help but eat a few more mouthfuls of rice.
"Hehehe, come on, Luo Luo, try this soup, it's very appetizing." Lan Weikun turned a bowl of soup in front of Yan Xiluo.
"Okay." Yan Xiluo lowered her head and took a few sips. It really whetted her appetite; now she'd have to eat another bowl of rice...
"It's delicious, sour and spicy, really appetizing! I need another bowl of rice! Hehe~"
Yan Xiluo felt a little embarrassed, perhaps because she had eaten too much, and felt somewhat ashamed...
Lan Jingyan saw through her thoughts.
"Eat more if it's delicious, you need to grow!"
"Hehehe, yes, Ayan is right, Luoluo should eat more!"
Lan Weikun smiled happily, saying that being able to eat is a blessing, and that Luo Luo would be better off if she gained a little more weight, as she is too thin now.
"That's right!"
After saying goodbye to Lan Weikun and Deng Ling after dinner, Lan Jingyan drove Yan Xiluo home.
