Chapter 167 So petty!
Faced with the parents who kept apologizing, Yan Ruo could only wave his hands to indicate that everything was fine.
I asked the waiter where the bathroom was and whether it could be cleaned.
Xu Shaoyu held her back and said, "I'll ask Xiao Zhang to bring some clean clothes over."
"No need. Anyway, we'll go straight home after dinner, so there's no need to bother."
After going to the private room with Xu Shaoyu and putting their things away, Yan Ruo went to the bathroom.
Fortunately, the oil stain was not deep, and she was wearing dark clothes today, so with a little treatment, it was not very noticeable.
After washing his hands and shaking off the water droplets on them, Yan Ruo walked towards the private room while wiping his hands.
Qinyuan has many private rooms and corridors connected to each other. If you don’t come here often, it’s easy to lose your way back.
When I turned another corner, I saw two young men coming towards me, and one of them looked quite familiar.
Yan Ruo squinted her eyes and looked carefully, and finally remembered that it was Zhang Xuan, the young master of the Zhang family who was sent abroad a few years ago.
The Zhang family is considered a second-rate family in North City, but the head of the family is a good person and has good relations with other wealthy families.
But good bamboo has bad shoots. The eldest son of the Zhang family is capable and has good character, but the youngest son of the Zhang family is a troublemaker.
However, he is very good at judging people by their status and only selectively bullies those whose family background is not as good as his.
So there hasn't been any major trouble so far.
Fortunately, I was suddenly sent abroad to study a few years ago, so I didn't continue to make trouble in the country.
Otherwise, Yan Ruo suspected that with the frequency of his causing trouble, he would sooner or later hit a wall, and the good reputation of their Zhang family would sooner or later be shattered by him.
The reason why he was so impressed was that Yan Ruo had been within his reach before, but was stopped by Xu Shaoyu at that time.
I thought since we hadn’t seen each other for many years, I could just pretend I didn’t see him.
Unexpectedly, not only Yan Ruo remembered Zhang Xuan, but Zhang Xuan also recognized her.
"Hey~ Isn't this Secretary Yan?"
Yan Ruo greeted him expressionlessly, "Young Master Zhang, long time no see."
Seeing her so calm, Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's been a long time. If I hadn't offended Secretary Yan back then, I wouldn't have gone abroad."
Yan Ruo, “…”
This guy must have been drunk when he first arrived. What nonsense is he talking about?
If she had the ability, she would have broken all three of his legs when he tried to touch her while drunk.
Thinking of this, Yan Ruo said in a cold tone.
"Young Master Zhang is joking. My friends are still waiting for me, so I'll leave first."
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Zhang Xuan stretched out his hand to block her way and said with a smile.
"I got drunk and offended Secretary Yan before, and I never had the chance to apologize to you. It's better to meet by chance than to invite you. Today we happened to meet, so we can have a drink together."
"Just consider it as an apology to you for what happened that year."
Yan Ruo rolled her eyes inwardly. Could she have been more sincere when she said this? Zhang Xuan practically had "I want revenge on you" written all over his face.
"No need, let the past be the past."
Zhang Xuan's expression changed, and he was about to scold the woman for not accepting his toast, when Wang Yan followed behind him.
"Brother Xuan, this woman is not easy to offend right now."
Zhang Xuan glanced at Wang Yan and said, "Isn't he just Xu Shaoyu's secretary? At worst, my dad will beat him up and send him abroad."
"But today, I must vent my anger first."
"She is no longer Xu Shaoyu's secretary."
"That's even better. Without Xu as my backer, I'm going to vent my anger even more fiercely today."
Wang Yan held Zhang Xuan tightly and quickly explained, "She is Xu Shaoyu's girlfriend now, and we can't offend her."
"What did you say?" Zhang Xuan stopped and looked incredulous.
He slowly turned his head to look at Yan Ruo. This woman was really not simple. When she was still a secretary, Xu Shaoyu protected her so well. Now she has successfully risen to the top.
"Hey, isn't this Second Young Master Zhang? You've been getting bolder and bolder lately. What do you want to do by stopping my future second sister-in-law?"
Su Yue and Song Yichuan walked over from the end of another corridor.
Yan Ruo turned around and greeted, "Mr. Su, Mr. Song."
Song Yichuan smiled and nodded at her, "Ms. Yan."
"Is my future sister-in-law coming out to greet us specially?" Su Yue took two steps forward slowly and joked.
Compared to Song Yichuan, Yan Ruo had more contact with Su Yue, and knew that he liked to joke, so she replied with a smile.
"Yes, when you're treating someone to a meal, you naturally have to go out and invite them, and be polite. So, I followed Mr. Xu's instructions and came out to greet you two."
They both knew that this was a joke.
But Su Yue still pretended to sigh, "I didn't expect that Second Brother would value us so much that he even asked you to come out and greet us in person."
After saying that, he shook his head and then looked at Zhang Xuan and the other person standing beside him.
"Future sister-in-law, please go to the private room first. I will have a good chat with Young Master Zhang."
Huh? Is he planning to help her get revenge right then and there? Yan Ruo hesitantly cast her gaze on Song Yichuan, who seemed more reliable.
Song Yichuan spread his hands and said, "Young Master Su likes to make trouble, so let him take care of this. Don't keep Shao Yu waiting for too long."
Well, after looking at Zhang Xuan who had been standing there like a quail without saying a word since Su Yue and the others came, Yan Ruo couldn't help but curse in her heart that he deserved it.
Xu Shaoyu was a little surprised to see Yan Ruo and Song Yichuan coming together.
When he heard that Yan Ruo was blocked by Zhang Xuan in the corridor outside, his face instantly turned colder.
"It's said that the Zhang family's patriarch is good at socializing and has always been able to get along with everyone. It seems that his mind is focused on socializing. After all these years, he still can't teach his son well."
Yan Ruo heard something wrong and asked in a low voice.
"So, it was really because of you that Zhang Xuan was sent abroad back then?"
Xu Shaoyu looked at her and said, "It's because of you."
Yan Ruo thought about it and felt that this was not wrong. "Why didn't I hear you say that you did all this for me?"
"You've done it, why do you have to bring it up specifically?" Xu Shaoyu said it as a matter of course. Yan Ruo felt that with this momentum, there was no way to refute it.
After a while, Su Yue came back with a smile on his face.
Yan Ruo quickly asked, "How is it, Master Su, are you okay?"
Su Yue sat down opposite her, picked up the teacup and took a sip before speaking with a satisfied look on his face.
"That coward is a bully who only cares about the strong and the weak. Don't worry, my future second sister-in-law, he won't dare to even fart when he sees you in the future."
Xu Shaoyu glanced at Su Yue with some dissatisfaction and patted Yan Ruo's arm.
"Pour me a cup of tea, I can't reach it."
Yan Ruo frowned, "Didn't I tell you not to drink tea during this period? It will affect the healing of your fractured bones."
As he said that, he stood up and went to the door to call the waiter, asking them to bring a bottle of mineral water.
Seeing Su Yue drinking tea comfortably and not noticing anything wrong, Song Yichuan raised his teacup towards Xu Shaoyu and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Xu, who is always cold-hearted, would be so petty."
Xu Shaoyu sneered, "You are quite generous. I heard that your love rival almost got into your house."
