Jiang Rui walked toward Xing Yan amidst the cheers of the orchestra’s members: “Why are you here?”
“I happened to be on a business trip.” Xing Yan said without blinking, “Are you tired?”
“Fortunately, it didn’t take long.”
He asked very considerately: “Have you reserved the room? Are you going back to the hotel with your colleagues to rest now?”
“Yeah.” Jiang Rui nodded and then glanced at him suddenly, “Are you staying in the same hotel with us?”
Xing Yan said smoothly: “No, it’s in the hotel next door.”
After saying that, he realized that he had been tricked because the little beauty did not mention which hotel she was staying in, so he told the whole story himself.
If it was really a business trip and it really just happened to meet, how would you know it so clearly?
He laughed: “Someone else mentioned it just now, and I happened to hear it.”
“What a coincidence.” Jiang Rui said calmly.
Her face was light, without much expression, and there was no emotion in her tone. But when Xing Yan heard the last part of her words, he felt extremely cute as if someone had scratched his heart. The itching was so severe that he wanted to hold the person in his arms and rub it a few times.
But, this idea obviously could not be realized now. The little beauty seemed a little unhappy. Thinking of the reason why she might be unhappy, Xing Yan started to beat his heart and asked carefully: “Am I… annoying you?”
As soon as he asked this question, he did not get an answer from the other party. He felt that his heart was constantly falling as if it was sinking into his stomach.
He thought that he was shameless, with a brass head and an iron arm, but he never expected that just such a possible guess now made him want to escape and dare not face it.
If the little beauty’s answer was to nod, Xing Yan did not know if he could still pretend to laugh as if nothing had happened.
He had a good time thinking, when did he, a grown man, have a heart of glass?
Fortunately, Jiang Rui did not nod but frowned slightly: “You run around like this, what about the company?”
Xing Yan breathed a sigh of relief and then began to take a deep breath silently because only now did he realize that he had been holding his breath just now.
He laughed to hide his strangeness and said, “It’s okay, there are people in charge of the company. If something happens, my Dad will be there to take care of it.”
“When did you come?” Jiang Rui asked again.
This time he did not dare to hide it anymore and said honestly: “Last night’s flight.”
Because there was only one direct flight a day, which was where the orchestra took this morning. In order to arrive early, he changed planes in another city midway and arrived early this morning, only a few hours earlier than the orchestra group.
Jiang Rui looked at the little blue marks under his eyes, and she could guess how much he had tossed this night. She thought that he would take a flight with her at most, or catch up with her tomorrow, but she did not expect it would be last night. Even though it was only morning and evening, she could see the depth of his thoughts.
She said, “Let’s go back to the hotel and get some sleep first. Are you free to have dinner together tonight?”
Xing Yan stared at her, not understanding the meaning of her words for a moment. He was rarely stunned. It took him a long time before he nodded quickly: “I’ve already asked people about it when I have time. There is a specialty restaurant nearby with a good reputation. Let’s go and try it together?”
“Okay.” Jiang Rui agreed.
Until he sent the person back to the hotel and then returned to his room in the hotel next door, Xing Yan’s footsteps were still a little erratic. After closing the door, he sat on the sofa for a long time and suddenly laughed out loud.
Little beauty, little beauty… (T/N: I think our ML is already crazy~~)
This was the first time that the little beauty took the initiative to invite him to dinner. He touched his chin and savored it for a while, then he ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror.
Before going out, he was worried that he would be disliked because he did not sleep well at night and his face looked ugly. Unexpectedly, his haggard face turned out to be an assist.
The little beauty is really soft-hearted. Maybe if he repeats this cruel trick a few more times, he will be able to successfully capture the person. However, what he has to do now is to catch up on his sleep first and try to appear in front of the little beauty tonight with a handsome and attractive appearance, so as to restore his previous image.
At half past four, Xing Yan jumped up from the bed accompanied by the sound of the alarm clock. He brushed his teeth and washed his face quickly, picking and choosing in the suitcase, and finally changed into a casual suit. Then, he looked right and left in the mirror.
“Handsome.” He judged himself.
