Chapter 47: An insignificant matter!
Xiao Suhe was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Yan Ruo thought she would continue to mock Yin Yang or simply hang up the phone, but she suddenly changed her tone.
"Sister Ruoruo, I'm sorry! I didn't mean anything else. It's just that Mr. Xu is really busy, and I don't dare to disturb him because of such a trivial personal matter."
"Since you insist on looking for Mr. Xu, let me ask for you!"
The call was not hung up, and the phone fell into silence.
Less than a minute later, a cold voice with obvious surprise suddenly came.
"Don't bother me with trivial matters during a meeting. Don't you understand what I'm saying? Get out!"
Then came Xiao Suhe's flustered apology.
An insignificant matter? Yan Ruo was slightly stunned. It turned out that her safety was just an insignificant matter in Xu Shaoyu's eyes.
After a while, Xiao Suhe's somewhat aggrieved voice came from the phone.
"Sister Ruoruo, I really want to help you, but you heard it too. I just finished talking to Mr. Xu and he got angry! Why don't you just figure it out on your own?"
Yan Ruo took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for helping me convey this. That's all for now!"
After hanging up the phone, she forced a smile at the convenience store owner.
"Excuse me, I need a small bag of flour and a packet of chili powder!"
Carrying flour and chili powder, Yan Ruo carefully walked out of the store.
There was no way, she didn't know whether Xiao Congye just wanted to scare him or would really do something.
She didn't dare stay in the store for too long, fearing that Xiao's patience would run out and he would rush in and be done with it.
You can't possibly implicate a pregnant woman with a big belly.
It had only been four or five minutes since the police were called, and I didn't know when Uncle Hat would arrive.
Yan Ruo stopped at the entrance of the convenience store, tore open the bags of flour and chili powder, and prepared to throw them into the other person's eyes if he found something wrong.
She looked towards the street, but she didn't see Xiao Congye and the man beside him.
I don’t know if he left!
If Yan Ruo didn't dare to walk towards her residence, she would have to pass the road she had just walked on, which was not crowded.
She turned her head and looked back, and happened to meet the gaze of the convenience store owner who was leaning out to look at her.
I could only smile awkwardly and turned to walk towards another crowded square.
Yan Ruo was nervous all the way, fearing that Xiao Congye would suddenly rush out again like he just did.
It was not until I saw the crowd playing in the square that I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After sitting and watching the square dance for a while, the panic that had been weighing on my heart finally dissipated a little. What I used to think was noisy now gave me a sense of security.
After waiting for another ten minutes, Uncle Hat called to say he had arrived and asked where she was.
He explained the whole incident in detail and took the two uncles in hats to see the scene of the incident. Xiao Congye and the other man were nowhere to be seen.
However, there is surveillance on this road section, and Yan Ruo recognized who it was, so it would not be difficult to find the person.
It was already past ten o'clock when Uncle Hat took her home.
I sat on the sofa for a long time, but my head still felt messy.
Sometimes I wondered if Xiao Congye would come and cause trouble again, and sometimes I remembered what Xu Shaoyu said, it was just a trivial matter and we should not disturb him!
I was stunned for a while, and finally I couldn't stand the constant vibrating of my phone, so I had to take it out to check.
It turned out that Chi Yu was a little worried because she didn't reply to the message for a long time, so she called to ask her if she had arrived home.
Yan Ruo didn't want her to work overtime while worrying about him.
"I just went to the supermarket in the square. It was too noisy there, so I didn't hear the message reminder! I'm home now! Don't worry!"
"Just get home, that's all. Don't do that again next time! You didn't reply to my message for so long, it scared me to death!"
Hearing these words that seemed like complaints but were actually words of concern, Yan Ruo's mood inexplicably improved.
I just couldn't help but curse, "Xu Shaoyu is a heartless bastard who turns his face against me!"
The last time I went to see her, he said something nice, saying that if she had any problems, she could come to him! But what happened?
Yan Ruo smiled self-deprecatingly.
I laugh at myself for being so naive after so many years in the workplace! I actually believed such polite words!
Chi Yu went to work, and Yan Ru didn't want to go out alone.
At most, I would go to the building next door to see how the renovation of my own house was progressing.
In the afternoon, Uncle Hat called and said that Xiao had been caught and asked her to come over.
Although there were not many people on that road at night, there was surveillance footage, and it was clearly visible that Xiao Congye blocked her way and followed her for a while.
The trouble is, the surveillance only shows the images and you can't hear what is being said.
Xiao Congye insisted that he just wanted to talk to Yan Ruo, but Yan Ruo misunderstood him and thought he wanted to do something.
Following Yan Ruo, I just wanted to catch up and explain things clearly.
Because no actual harm was caused, Yan Ruo had no evidence to prove that he was threatening her at the time.
In the end, I could only give him a few words of advice and then make him apologize in person.
After coming out, Xiao Congye looked at Yan Ruo, and a hint of malice flashed across his face.
"When we were in North City, everyone said that Secretary Yan was bold and careful, and very capable, and was no less capable than any other man."
"If it weren't for Xu's, he would be qualified for the position of manager in any other company and be able to handle things on his own! Why are you so timid now?"
It was broad daylight and Uncle Hat was not far away, so Yan Ruo was not afraid of him now.
"Young Master Xiao, you're joking. I'm really a coward, so please stay away from me!"
Xiao Congye took a few steps closer, the corners of his mouth raised, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"It doesn't matter if you're timid, I'm brave! Don't worry, I'll often chat with you and reminisce about the past!"
Yan Ruo frowned and took a step back, "Are you threatening me?"
"So what if I threaten you?"
After glancing at the arrogant Xiao Congye, Yan Ruo curled the corners of his mouth and raised the mobile phone in his hand.
"It's not that great, but I have evidence that you threatened me."
Xiao Congye's expression changed and he reached out to snatch the phone.
Yan Ruo quickly took a few steps back, "Second Young Master Xiao, don't you see where you are? Do you want to attack me now?"
"Do I need to choose a place to take action?" Xiao Congye walked towards her aggressively. "At worst, I can just pay you some money. It's not like my Xiao family can't afford it!"
Yan Ruo was about to shout for help and call Uncle Hat over when an acquaintance walked out.
"Second Young Master Xiao is so capable!"
Su Yue, who always dresses in flashy clothes, unexpectedly wore a serious pure gray shirt and suit pants this time.
He had a half-smile on his face, and two middle-aged men followed behind him, walking towards him slowly.
When he saw it was him, Xiao Congye's face changed.
Although Su Yue looks unserious, he usually likes to find a group of friends to eat and drink, and looks like he is not doing his job properly.
In fact, he comes from a military and political family with a strong background.
He was the youngest in the family, and had been pampered since childhood, fearless and unfazed. No one in the entire North City dared to offend him.
Cursing his bad luck in his heart, Xiao Congye forced a smile.
"Mr. Su, you're joking. I was just joking with Secretary Yan."
"Are you kidding?" Su Yue sneered, and when he turned to look at Yan Ruo, his expression softened a lot.
"Sister Ruoruo, Second Young Master Xiao said he was joking with you just now. What do you think?"
