"Brother Xiaoyan!"
Wen Ruo's eyes lit up when she saw Qi Yan. She said goodbye to the people around her politely, then ran over happily and held Qi Yan's hand.
Qi Yan looked at her, was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why are you here?"
Wen Ruo's cheeks blushed, like a pink peach. She avoided his eyes and didn't look directly at Qi Yan, and said embarrassedly, "My mother asked me to pick you up and go back together... She has been feeling much better these days. She can get up and walk around during the days you were away."
"Really?" Qi Yan's eyes flashed, and his tone revealed a hint of surprise.
"Well! She was already cooking when I went out. She said she would make you a delicious meal today. She will definitely let you go!"
Qi Yan was happy in his heart. Wen Xin's improvement in condition gave him more motivation to do everything well.
Avoiding Wen Ruo's hand without leaving a trace, Qi Yan quickened his pace, seemingly walking with Wen Ruo very naturally, but in his heart he was keeping a distance from Wen Ruo.
Wen Ruo came here not for Wen Xin's request, but for the people in the company to know her. As for a meal, when they lived in the dormitory before, Wen Xin was in good health and would prepare a lot of food, and asked Wen Ruo to ask Qi Yan to come to eat, but every time she made a phone call and never went to find Qi Yan in person.
It was not for Qi Yan, but for Wen Ruo to keep a distance.
There are so many people in the dormitory, how could Wen Ruo let them know about her relationship with Qi Yan? But if it was the company, the situation would be different. Wen Ruo can assert her sovereignty and let everyone here know that Qi Yan and Wen Ruo have a 'different' relationship. They can talk and laugh, go home together for dinner, and naturally link arms...
If someone falls in love with Qi Yan, Wen Ruo's behavior is equivalent to telling others that Qi Yan is mine. This mysterious relationship cannot be revealed, because what if a rich and powerful person falls in love with Wen Ruo? Then Qi Yan would be the first person to be dumped. Qi Yan
didn't want to speculate about a girl like this, but this is her character, her nature.
A few steps out of the company's revolving door, familiar people came over to say hello. They were a few seniors in the planning department who usually took good care of Qi Yan.
"Hey Qi Yan! You're good!" A thirty-year-old uncle winked at Qi Yan.
"That's right, my girlfriend is very beautiful!"
"It's over, some women in our company who have been eyeing young hunks are going to cry."
...
Everyone was teasing in good faith, and Qi Yan smiled and waved his hands, denying it repeatedly, but others thought he was just being polite, and started to tease him even more, making Wen Ruo feel a little embarrassed.
Qi Yan naturally noticed this, and he slightly retracted his joking tone: "Don't say it, this is really just my sister." He winked at his seniors: "My sister is thin-skinned, she will blush soon."
Qi Yan's tone was sincere, so everyone put aside the idea of joking, and looked at Wen Ruo, the little girl who was silent, and her demeanor was somewhat similar to Qi Yan, but her appearance was completely different.
"Is she really your sister?" A senior asked doubtfully, "Your sister doesn't look like you at all."
"Of course not, I'm an orphan. But we grew up together, and her mother is like my mother."
Everyone got to know a little about Qi Yan's life experience during these few days of getting along. They probably thought that Wen Ruo's mother had funded Qi Yan, so they didn't ask any more questions. After talking to each other in groups of three or two for a few words, they dispersed.
On the way back, Wen Ruo's complexion became worse and worse, and he didn't even say a word to Qi Yan. Qi Yan didn't care either. He walked slowly by the side of the road by himself, and from time to time he would pay attention to the Land Rover moving slowly behind him.
...This car followed them like this, did they really think he didn't notice?
