Chapter 148 Right now!
In addition to the class monitor He Hong, an old classmate Li Huiliang, and one of her good colleagues came to Chi Yu's house to eat hot pot.
After everyone introduced themselves to each other, Yan Ruo rubbed against Chi Yu and asked in a low voice.
"What's going on today?"
Chi Yu looked guilty and replied in a low voice, "Blind date."
"Blind date?" Yan Ruo glanced towards the living room. "Your colleague, and the squad leader? Or Li Huiliang?"
Chi Yu, "..."
"I originally wanted to introduce him to the class monitor, but he brought Li Huiliang with him, so..."
Yan Ruo turned around to look at the girl who was laughing happily because of Li Huiliang, and patted Chi Yu's shoulder.
"Luckily, Li Huiliang is here."
Chi Yu was puzzled, "Why do you say that?"
"Have you met the boss of the squad leader's company?"
“No.”
"No wonder." Yan Ruo glanced at He Hong from a distance, unable to put into words. "Based on my years of experience in watching TV series and reading novels, the boss of the squad leader's company and the squad leader are definitely going in both directions."
Chi Yu couldn't understand this. "He said he was single, and he didn't refuse when I asked him to introduce me to a new friend. I didn't expect that the squad leader, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would actually be such a scumbag."
Yan Ruo frowned and thought for a moment, "I'm afraid he's not a scumbag, but a straight man. It seems they haven't broken through that layer of window paper yet."
Chi Yu poked her head out to look into the living room and nodded, "You're right. Fortunately, Li Huiliang showed up midway."
"Hey, where's Mr. Xu from your family? Didn't he say he'd come over?"
Yan Ruo curled her lips and said, "I was already downstairs. I was called away by the company. I happened to meet the squad leader and the others, and they helped me carry the things I bought up."
As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Actually, it's better if he doesn't come. Otherwise, he'll sit there with a stern face and make everyone uncomfortable."
Chi Yu nodded in agreement, "That's true, Mr. Xu's aura is quite intimidating."
The most convenient thing about eating hot pot is that you can just cook the soup base and wash the vegetables and start eating.
Chi Yu was a talkative and cheerful person, and everyone was having a great time eating.
After looking at Li Huiliang and the other person who were talking and laughing, and He Hong who was concentrating on picking up the food, Yan Ruo and Chi Yu looked at each other, and everything was said without words.
Yan Ruo asked casually while putting down the fat beef.
"Squad leader, is Ms. He busy recently? I've bothered her many times before. When is she free? I'd like to invite her out for dinner."
He Hong smiled and said, "With her worrying personality, she never finishes her work."
"But as long as you ask, she will definitely find time."
Yan Ruo nodded and asked tentatively, "Does she know that you're here for hot pot today?"
"I know." He Hong took out a piece of tofu and put it into the bowl, answering with confidence.
The expression on Yan Ruo's face suddenly became subtle, and she was speechless.
He is such a straight-forward man, no wonder there has been no emotional progress after being with Mr. He for so many years.
Li Huiliang, on the other hand, looked at Yan Ruo with a smile.
"Yan Ruo, was that your boyfriend who I just met downstairs?"
Yan Ruo nodded, "Yes, you... know him?"
Li Huiliang's eyes lit up. "If I'm not mistaken, that's Mr. Xu from Xu Corporation."
Yan Ruo paused while picking up the food. She didn't expect that she actually knew him. "It's him."
Li Huiliang put down his chopsticks and sighed, "That's the president of Xu Group, old classmate, you are about to achieve a class leap."
"Everyone says Mr. Xu is a very chaste man. Aside from his employees, there are rarely any women around him. I never thought you could win over such a cool and aloof bachelor. You're quite something, old classmate."
"If you become the boss lady of Xu's company in the future, don't forget us friends."
"Hehe." Yan Ruo smiled stiffly, not really liking this topic.
Seeing this, Chi Yu immediately spoke up, "Li Huiliang, are you here today to eat hot pot, or to pick up on gossip?"
Li Huiliang also realized that he had said too much and shut up in embarrassment.
After eating hot pot, everyone chatted for a while before dispersing.
Yan Ruo stayed and chatted with Chi Yu for a while until Xu Shaoyu came downstairs to pick her up, and then she left.
On the way back, Yan Ruo noticed that Xu Shaoyu was in a bad mood and couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Xu Shaoyu twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I am a little tired."
After a while, he slowly spoke again, "I have to go back to North City tomorrow."
Facing separation again, Yan Ruo felt an indescribable reluctance in her heart, but she still replied in a relaxed tone.
"It's okay. Long-distance relationships mean we're apart more often than we're together. But on the other hand, distance creates beauty. It's okay to be apart from each other occasionally."
Xu Shaoyu pinched her cheek, looking dissatisfied, "You seem to be very open-minded."
Yan Ruowei raised her chin and said, "After the master's guidance, I am now very open-minded in terms of feelings."
"Oh? Which master is so powerful?"
"Master Chi." Master Chi Yu, who was half lying on the sofa, sneezed suddenly, rubbed his nose and continued watching TV series and looking at handsome guys.
Perhaps because they were about to be separated again, as soon as she returned home, Yan Ruo was pressed into the corner by Xu Shaoyu.
She blushed and pushed the person in front of her, "I smell like hot pot. I need to take a shower."
Xu Shaoyu slowly approached her, his voice slightly hoarse, "Don't worry, we'll be together later."
No one knew what happened in North City, but Xu Shaoyu left in a hurry early the next morning.
When Yan Ruo got up, she only remembered the kiss he gave her on her forehead before he left.
When I opened my phone, I saw a message he had sent me an hour ago, saying that he had boarded the plane.
Today was the weekend, and Yan Ruo lingered in bed for a while before getting up. Breakfast was laid out on the table in the dining room.
There were project documents that Xu Shaoyu had casually placed on the side table next to the sofa, and his coat was hanging at the entrance. The whole house was filled with his presence, as if he would be back at the next moment.
"It's over. I miss him a little bit right after we separated." Yan Ruo thought that she was not as open-minded as she said.
After eating a bite of breakfast, I thought about it and sent a message to ask Chi Yu what his plans were for the day.
I learned that she was going to make full use of today's holiday and lie down at home.
Yan Ruo immediately quickened her breakfast pace and decided to go talk to Master Chi.
Chi Yu took a sip of milk tea and looked at her sympathetically, "You're done, Yan Ruo. You said before that you could get out of it at any time, so why are you getting deeper and deeper into it now?"
"And it will be even deeper than last time."
Yan Ruo stirred the pearls in the milk tea with a straw.
"What should I do? I wanted to give it a try, but who knew he would be so sincere during this period. Who could resist?"
Chi Yu shook her head, but she couldn't bear to see her sister in distress, so she could only comfort her.
"He's such a big CEO, yet he can be so kind to you. At least I can guarantee that at this moment, he is absolutely sincere, more sincere than Pearl."
Yan Ruo said that she was not comforted at all.
Especially when less than three days after Chi Yu said this, she saw gossip about Xu Shaoyu going in and out and having dinner with other women.
I have to admire this sister's mouth.
