Chapter 363 Should we just cancel this part-time job?
"Ah." An Jing coughed lightly, looking regretful, and said, "Then maybe you didn't use the right method? Was your pursuit not obvious enough?"
"Yes, I've been reflecting on that lately too."
Anjing nodded: "Teacher Luo, your attitude is very good. When pursuing someone, you have to constantly adjust your methods according to their preferences. For example, I dislike sending flowers the most. Sending them over and over again is not original."
Leng Yanluo, who was just passing by a flower shop and looking at the sunflowers inside, thought: "..."
He looked away and nodded: "Yes, indeed."
"Right? But Mr. Luo, I think you are still very outstanding. As long as you persevere, you will definitely be able to win over the girl you like."
Thank you for your kind words.
"Sure, sure," Anjing waved her hand, then suddenly realized, "Wait a minute, Teacher Luo, you haven't been able to win over the girl you like, is it because of me? Does she know about this part-time job you're doing?"
Leng Yanluo replied fluently, "She knows and is very supportive of me."
Anjing widened her eyes: "Ah, Teacher Luo, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're such a straight man. No wonder you can't win her over. It's impossible for any girl not to care about this kind of thing. Even if she says she doesn't care, she might be heartbroken inside."
"I only agreed to rent you as my boyfriend because you said you were single when I asked you before. Since you have someone you like and are still pursuing her, I think our cooperation should end here. If I really can't avoid it, I'll agree to my older sister's arrangement to go on a blind date. Anyway, it's just a meal, it won't hurt me."
Leng Yanluo: "..."
He now deeply regrets bringing this up.
Quietly, she gave herself a thumbs up for being so understanding.
This cold-hearted Yama looks aloof and indifferent, but I never expected him to be so devoted. I wonder what kind of girl he falls for.
This kind of man, although not good-looking, would probably be devoted to whoever he falls for, unlike someone who... would casually give away the gifts she gave him to others.
As Anjing pondered, the anger in her heart rose again, and she wished she could tear open Yan Su's heart to see what was inside.
Seeing that Leng Yanluo remained silent, she assumed he was worried about his wages and said generously, "Don't worry, today's pay will be normal. We're friends now, so if you ever need money in the future, I can lend it to you!"
Leng Yanluo remained silent, but suddenly opened his phone and scrolled through it a few times before closing it. The atmosphere around him became even more oppressive.
"What's wrong?" Anjing asked cautiously.
Leng Yanluo sighed: "An'an, I just received a message that that girl is with someone else. Maybe I'm just not good enough."
"Oh, how could this happen so suddenly?"
Anjing has always been carefree and not very good at comforting people, so she didn't know what else to say for a moment.
Leng Yanluo, on the other hand, had a strong self-healing ability and quickly dispelled the gloom. He stared at Anjing with a resolute look and said, "An'an, I'm practically heartbroken now. Love is going so badly, you can't let me lose my job too, can you? I still want to keep this part-time job, okay?"
Anjing was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, "What a good man he is. He's suffering so much, yet he's still thinking about making money."
Since the other person was in such a miserable situation, she couldn't bear to refuse, so she nodded.
No sooner had she nodded than her hand was grabbed by the man.
She looked completely bewildered.
Leng Yanluo remained calm and said slowly, "An'an, we'll be officially meeting your parents tomorrow, so we need to rehearse today. Don't worry, even if I'm feeling sad, my professionalism won't waver, and I'll definitely do this part-time job conscientiously."
Look at their professional ethics, it can be summed up in one word: professional!
This money was well spent!
Anjing thought that Teacher Luo was too thoughtful.
She said "Oh," and let him lead her without struggling.
But as time went on, she started to feel something was off—
This was the first time she had ever held hands with a man with their fingers intertwined.
The man's hands had some thin calluses, but they were rough, dry, and warm.
Her palms were broad with distinct knuckles, almost completely enclosing her hands.
She moved slightly, and he held her even tighter.
Seemingly concerned about her feelings, he looked down at her and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
She coughed lightly and said, "No, it's just... I'm not used to it."
"Yeah, you'll get used to it with practice."
Quiet:"……"
What he said wasn't wrong, but for some reason, it just felt even stranger.
After walking awkwardly for a while, An Jing had to admit that Leng Yanluo's words made sense, and after a period of time, she really got used to it.
The two of them shopped their way from the first floor of the mall to the fourth floor, buying a set of oil paints for their second sister, a scarf for their fourth sister, and even a tie clip for Murong Ting. After going around in circles, the only thing they hadn't bought was a gift for their eldest sister.
"My older sister likes jewelry. Why don't we go to the fifth floor and take a look? I remember there's a jewelry store there that sells some really unique pieces. If they don't have any on the fifth floor, we can go look somewhere else."
"Yes, that's fine."
Leng Yanluo pulled An Jing along, and the two took the elevator all the way to the fifth floor.
The jewelry store on the fifth floor is indeed more tasteful than the one downstairs. It's a designer store that makes all the jewelry by hand. The store isn't big, but the materials they use are very good, and the design is exquisite.
The two walked around for a while, and Anjing took a liking to a malachite necklace.
The necklace itself has a very distinctive design, with four small malachite stones surrounding one large one, arranged in two layers, giving it an understated yet luxurious feel.
Malachite itself has the auspicious meaning of warding off evil and disaster. What is rare is that the malachite used in this necklace is of the highest quality. The malachite is extremely pure peacock blue throughout, and it is round and has an inner luster.
After looking around quietly for a while, she pulled Leng Yanluo aside and asked, "How about this one?"
Leng Yanluo watched for a while, then nodded: "Not bad."
So Anjing asked the shop assistant to take it out and look at it.
The two listened attentively to the shop assistant's explanation, completely unaware that behind another counter in the store, a young man wearing a mask had been watching them ever since they entered. When he saw their interlocked hands, his expression darkened even more.
After communicating with the shop assistant, Anjing was very satisfied and decided, "This is it, please pack it up for us."
The sales clerk was delighted. This malachite necklace was considered one of the store's signature pieces, priced at over six figures, and not something the average person could easily afford.
She wrote out the receipt, and Anjing took it and was about to swipe her card.
Leng Yanluo stepped forward and grabbed her: "Let me do it?"
Anjing waved her hand: "Teacher Luo, there are no outsiders here, no need to be so serious. Even if you buy it, I'll have to reimburse you, it's too much trouble."
Leng Yanluo remained silent, quietly paid the bill, picked up the packaged jewelry, and walked out with him.
Unexpectedly, after taking only two steps, he was suddenly stopped by a shop assistant.
"President An, wait a minute!"
