"I'm just kidding you." Lu Shiyan smiled warmly, like the warmest sunshine on a spring day. There was a sly flicker in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a subtle sense of pride.
Looking at this awkward and easily bullied girl, he found it incredibly amusing to tease her. Every time he saw her angry, frustrated, or overwhelmed, it would brighten his mood. It felt like discovering a treasure, always bringing him surprises and joy.
He liked to see her frustrated when he teased her, liked to hear her coquettish voice, and even more liked her helpless look. When he teased her, he always felt an inexplicable joy.
At this moment, his smile grew even brighter, and the smile in his eyes grew even more intense. He was enjoying the time with her. Seeing that Wen Ning was about to lose her temper, he just put away his expression and said seriously, "Let's go, Princess. Mr. Lu is treating us today."
"Okay, I'll give you some face. Otherwise, if Mr. Lu, the great president, invites me to dinner and I don't go, and word gets out, Mr. Lu will be so embarrassed." Wen Ning teased.
"Yes, it's because our princess is so understanding that she gave me a chance." Lu Shiyan said politely and seriously.
Humph, Wen Ning raised the corners of her mouth and walked out side by side with him, but as soon as she reached the door, she couldn't laugh anymore because the annoying guy was standing right in front of her.
"Mr. Lu, can I have dinner with you?" The person who spoke had a weak voice, with a hint of pitiful begging.
She looked at the man in front of her cautiously, her hands tightly grasping the corners of his clothes, nervously waiting for an answer.
Who else could this be but Ye Jingyun, who had just come in recently? It looked like he must have been waiting here for a long time, just waiting for Lu Shiyan to come out.
Before Lu Shiyan could say anything, Wen Ning glared at him unhappily, as if to say: Look at all the trouble you've caused, and now everyone has come to you.
Lu Shiyan met her gaze and inexplicably found it somewhat amusing. He only raised his eyebrows slightly, which made Wen Ning even angrier. He angrily thought to himself, "Still laughing? You like laughing so much, don't you? Do you like it when people chase you?"
"Mr. Lu." Seeing Lu Shiyan and Wen Ning ignoring her in front of her, Ye Jingyun couldn't help but remind them softly.
Mr. Lu frowned when he heard this. He turned his head, looked her squarely in the eye, and said calmly, "Ms. Ye, during work, bosses and employees shouldn't get too close. They should keep their distance. There's no need to have lunch. I have an appointment at noon, so I won't be with you. Also, remember not to cross the line at the company."
Ye Jingyun naturally knew what he meant by having an appointment, and also knew who that person was. Wasn't that Wen Ning standing next to him? She just liked to flirt with him and flirt with him in front of her. She was really pissed off by her. Seeing her, she said to Lu Shiyan unwillingly, "Then why can she?"
Lu Shiyan followed her gaze to Wen Ning and explained, "She's not my employee."
Wen Ning wasn't actually an employee, just a regular on-site presence. This explanation made sense. Ye Jingyun instantly felt his face turn uglier than if he'd eaten shit. Could it be that even if he wasn't an employee, he could still get him a dinner date?
Originally, becoming his employee was the best way to get close to him, but now, it became a gap between her and him, which made her hate and annoyed.
"Even though I'm not your employee, can I still invite you to dinner?" Ye Jingyun thought for a while and asked.
"Miss Ye, I advise you not to let your imagination run wild." Lu Shiyan said without thinking. If it weren't for Grandpa Ye's request, how could she possibly show up at the company? I'm afraid it would be difficult for her to even see him.
"Why?" Ye Jingyun couldn't understand. She'd known him first, and she was handsome, had a good family background, and was talented—everything was possible. Why couldn't she compare to Wen Ning? Why? Was she really that bad?
Lu Shiyan said calmly, "Why so many whys? If Miss Ye didn't have work matters, I wouldn't have left yet." After saying that, he took Wen Ning's hand and turned to walk towards the elevator.
Ye Jingyun felt lost when she heard his words. She stood there, looking at Lu Shiyan's back, feeling resentful. Why, from childhood to adulthood, could she never get what she wanted?
Wen Ning was held by his hand and had no choice but to follow silently.
The two walked into the elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed. In this small space, the atmosphere became a little subtle. Wen Ning couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw that Ye Jingyun was no longer around. She was really afraid that he would agree. If he agreed, she would definitely leave him and run away on the spot. She would never do such a stupid thing. She felt worse than eating a fly when she was asked to eat with someone she hated or someone who liked him. Fortunately, Lu Shiyan had a brain. Don't say it, she almost wanted to laugh when she saw Ye Jingyun's face just now. However, due to the situation, she felt that it would be better for her to restrain herself, otherwise, she would definitely kill herself on the spot.
Well, although Lu Shiyan always makes himself angry, but when it comes to being aggressive towards others, he is still quite good.
However, if she praised him like that, she felt he would be extremely proud, so she simply didn't bother to say anything.
"Tighten your lips, your face is almost stiff, isn't it?" Lu Shiyan glanced at her and said with a smile. Is it really that funny? He didn't understand what was so funny about it.
"Tsk, you just said that jokingly?" Wen Ning retorted unconvincedly.
"Well, someone's mouth corners are so upturned that you can use it to fish." Lu Shiyan said humorously.
Wen Ning was speechless, so angry that he punched him directly. "Are you regretful? You didn't have dinner with everyone? Isn't that a pity? Huh? Isn't that right? Otherwise, I'll go up and call her down, and let her say sweet words to you."
"Someone has eye problems?"
"What's wrong with my eyes? Don't attack me personally, I'm telling you."
"There's nothing wrong with my eyesight, how could I see that? I feel so sorry and regretful." Lu Shiyan pressed her.
Just at this moment, the elevator dinged and arrived at the first floor. Wen Ning walked out of the elevator angrily, and Lu Shiyan followed her slowly behind.
They went to a restaurant near the company and found a seat by the window. The waiter handed over the menu, and Lu Shiyan gestured for the waiter to pass the menu to Wen Ning.
Wen Ning took the menu and glanced at the prices. Without hesitation, she ordered all the most expensive dishes. Mr. Lu noticed her actions and his lips curled up slightly, but he didn't say anything.
After a while, the food was served. Lu Shiyan looked at the food on the table and whispered, "Are you relieved?"
