Yuan Yang walked in front without saying a word.
Zhao Manman followed behind him, looking at Yuan Yang's back with somewhat obsessive eyes.
The first time she saw Yuan Yang, she fell in love with him at first sight. Yuan Yang was handsome, with a clean temperament, and was so outstanding that he could be spotted at a glance even if he stood in a crowd. What fascinated Zhao Manman the most was Yuan Yang's cold and indifferent attitude towards everyone.
She wanted to be the one who changed him, wanted his cold eyes to become crazy because of her.
Yuan Yang suddenly stopped and turned around.
Zhao Manman almost bumped into him head-on, but Yuan Yang immediately took a step back before she could do so.
They had reached the large balcony on the twelfth floor.
A colleague was smoking here. When he saw them coming, he tactfully put out his cigarette and gave his seat to them.
Zhao Manman's face flushed. She raised her hand and gently tucked her hair behind her ear. She looked at Yuan Yang, who looked particularly good in the light blue shirt, and pursed her lips, looking at him shyly, "Why did you ask me to come out?"
Yuan Yang stood three steps away from her and looked at her coldly, "Don't target Li Wan anymore."
The shyness and embarrassment on Zhao Manman's face froze instantly, and she felt as if she had heard it wrongly, "What did you say?"
Yuan Yang's expression was still as cold as ever, and his voice was very cold: "I'm warning you, stay away from her."
Zhao Manman looked at Yuan Yang in disbelief as he left without looking back. Her heart, which was once filled with blood, completely cooled down.
Yuan Yang came back alone.
It took Zhao Manman more than half an hour to come back.
He didn't look as cheerful as he had been when he left. The confidence that he always had on his face was gone, and his face was filled with gloom.
…
"Uh~" Li Wan worked an extra half hour and finally finished entering the information for the first file. She raised her hands above her head, stretched her waist hard, and turned her stiff neck left and right twice. Her whole body felt a little more relaxed.
She stood up and found that most people in the office had left.
"Yuan Yang, aren't you going to get off work yet?" Li Wan asked.
Yuan Yang calmly typed the last few words, then closed the computer, stood up and said to her, "Let's go."
It looked as if he was waiting for her.
"Feel sorry."
In the elevator, Yuan Yang said in a deep voice.
Li Wan tilted her head and looked at him in surprise, somewhat confused, "What's wrong?"
Yuan Yang didn't say why. He pursed his lips and finally asked, "There's an auction this weekend. I had an appointment with a friend, but he broke the appointment. Do you have time?"
Li Wan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Auction?"
Yuan Yang's face was still as cold and indifferent, but his unconsciously clenched fingers revealed his nervousness at the moment: "Well, it's an auction of collectibles. There is a collection that my elder in my family likes very much. She is abroad, so she asked me to go to the scene...but I don't want to go alone."
As he spoke, his eyes looked at Li Wan.
It only takes a few seconds.
He was so nervous that his palms began to sweat.
Li Wan suddenly chuckled, looked at him mischievously and said, "This is the first time I've heard you talk so much."
Yuan Yang felt a little uncomfortable, his Adam's apple rolled, and he said, "I don't know what to say to people I don't know well."
Li Wan tilted her head slightly and joked with him: "You mean we are very familiar with each other now?"
Yuan Yang felt even more uncomfortable, and after a long while he finally uttered two words: "It is considered so."
"I guess so?" Li Wan repeated the word, then found it funny: "Then when can we be considered really familiar with each other?"
Seeing Yuan Yang speechless and looking increasingly uncomfortable, she pursed her lips and smiled, changing the subject: "Are there any requirements for the outfit?"
Yuan Yang heaved a sigh of relief and said, "No, you can just wear your normal clothes."
Li Wan nodded and agreed: "Okay, I don't have anything to do on the weekend anyway."
She used to frequently attend various commercial or charity auctions and was very familiar with the processes and links, and had always been interested in them.
Since she had nothing to do on the weekend, she wanted to see if the auctions in this world were the same as the ones she had experienced.
Yuan Yang's lips pursed slightly, and the arc of his mouth was slightly raised, but he quickly suppressed it: "Thank you."
Li Wan couldn't help laughing: "Aren't we already acquaintances? There's no need to be so polite."
Yuan Yang's eyebrows softened, "Okay."
Li Wan was a little stunned, and she seemed to have the illusion that there was some affection hidden in those gentle eyes and eyebrows.
…
There are only three days left until the weekend, and it will pass in the blink of an eye.
The auction will be held in the afternoon and there will be a dinner after the auction.
Li Wan didn't have any other clothes, so she put on the white dress she bought with Li Zelin's black card.
It was the first time that Yuan Yang saw Li Wan wearing this dress. When she saw him in the elevator, a smile immediately appeared on her face. Then she walked out of the elevator and walked towards him. Her thick black hair was casually gathered behind her head, with natural curls at the ends. She still had light makeup on, her eyes were dark and bright, but her lips were slightly painted thicker, which added a bit of eye-catching color than usual.
As she walked towards him step by step, Yuan Yang's heart couldn't help but sway back and forth with the swing of her skirt.
"Let's go." Li Wan said in a brisk voice.
Yuan Yang tightened his jaw, feeling suddenly nervous for some reason. He hummed unnaturally, then walked out of the hall side by side with Li Wan.
…
There was a small cocktail party before the formal auction began.
Because of the special collections in this auction, only thirty invitations were issued, and these invitations serve as admission tickets.
Anyone who can get this invitation is either rich or noble.
One invitation letter allows one companion.
So it was a small cocktail party, but quite a few people came.
In the banquet hall, people of elegant clothes were everywhere, drinking and chatting happily.
"Zelin, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect to see you here today." A well-maintained middle-aged man in a white polo shirt came over and greeted Li Zelin with a smile, "How is your father's health recently?"
Li Zelin smiled faintly: "Thank you Uncle Yang for your concern. Dad is in good health."
"That's good, that's good." Yang Guofeng laughed twice, his eyes fell on Secretary Wu beside Li Zelin, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled at Li Zelin knowingly: "Girlfriend?"
Secretary Wu was actually a little nervous at this moment. She had a decent smile on her face, hope in her eyes, and her hand holding the wine glass tightened unconsciously.
Li Zelin's smile remained unchanged as he introduced calmly, "This is Secretary Wu."
Secretary Wu's heart sank. She had experienced countless disappointments before, but she still couldn't help but hope for a glimmer of hope. She tried her best to keep a smile on her face and nodded and smiled at Yang Guofeng.
Yang Guofeng laughed: "That was my misunderstanding, but Secretary Wu is indeed a great beauty. Hey, Zelin, you haven't had..." He stopped talking before he finished, looking at the back of Li Zelin with a strange expression, and said hesitantly: "Hey - Zelin, look, isn't that Wanwan over there?"
Li Zelin turned around and looked, and the smile on the corner of his lips gradually disappeared.
Secretary Wu also looked over in surprise, a little surprised: "Isn't that Yuan Yang?"
The two people standing by the buffet table and talking at this time, who else could it be but Li Wan and Yuan Yang.
Secretary Wu subconsciously looked at Li Zelin, and then found that his face, which had been smiling just now, was now completely cold and indifferent.
She was slightly startled.
Yang Guofeng also retracted his gaze. He was a little afraid to recognize Li Wan when he saw her just now. The last time he saw Li Wan was four or five years ago. At that time, Li Wan was still a rebellious little girl who liked to wear "strange clothes", which was very different from her current image. No wonder he almost thought he had recognized the wrong person at first sight. When he saw Li Zelin's expression, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The affairs of the Li family have long been no secret in Yunlin City's upper-class social circles.
He found it hard to believe when he first found out, but later he confirmed that such an outrageous thing was actually true.
As soon as this incident happened, Li's biological daughter moved into the Li family, while Li Wan left the Li family and his whereabouts were unknown.
I didn't expect to meet you here.
Just looking at Li Zelin's expression, it seemed that he didn't want to see this "sister".
Yang Guofeng couldn't help but feel sympathy. It was well known how much the Li family cherished this daughter. Now, the phoenix has turned into a pheasant...
"Uncle Yang, I'm sorry to leave you first." Li Zelin nodded slightly, handed the wine glass to Secretary Wu beside him, and walked straight towards Li Wan.
Secretary Wu put the wine glass back on the waiter's tray, then smiled apologetically at Yang Guofeng and followed him.
…
"There's something on the corner of your mouth." Li Wan saw cream on the corner of Yuan Yang's mouth and reminded him.
Yuan Yang wiped it with his fingers and then looked at Li Wan.
Li Wan smiled and said, "No, it's the other side."
Yuan Yang wiped the other side again.
Li Wan couldn't help laughing: "It's still not wiped off."
As she spoke, she put down the plate in her hand, took a tissue from the table, and took a step forward to get closer to him.
Yuan Yang's heart skipped a beat and he held his breath. He stared at Li Wan who was approaching him without blinking. When she raised her hand and gently wiped the corner of his mouth with a tissue, she curled her eyes and said, "Okay, that's enough."
Yuan Yang's Adam's apple moved slightly, "Thank you."
"Li Wan."
A cold voice interrupted.
Li Wan was stunned for a moment, and looked over in surprise, only to see Li Zelin standing there staring at her with a frosty face, motioning her to come over with his eyes.
"Brother?" Li Wan called him in surprise, then walked towards him. Just as he got in front of him, he saw Secretary Wu coming from behind.
Secretary Wu wore a deep V red dress today, showing off her good figure, as beautiful as a rose.
Secretary Wu stood next to Li Zelin with a friendly smile on his face, "Wanwan."
Li Wan also smiled slightly, "Secretary Wu, you are here too."
Secretary Wu said, "I came here with President Li."
Yuan Yang walked over to Li Wa, "Boss Li, Secretary Wu."
Secretary Wu looked meaningfully at Li Wan and Yuan Yang, and asked with a smile, "Did you come here together?"
Yuan Yang nodded slightly: "Yes, I asked Li Wan to accompany me."
Li Zelin's eyes suddenly turned cold.
The author has something to say:
The plan has changed. I will join V the day after tomorrow, hehe.
