“I'm sorry, Miss Yin is not here."
As soon as they saw him, the guard didn't even call on the walkie-talkie, and just told others that she wasn't there.
Xu Chen checked the time. It was already seven o'clock. She is not home yet. Could it be that she went on a date with Ke Guan Yu?
Xu Chen, who was full of displeasure, slowly walked out of the building, and when he stepped down the stairs, he suddenly remembered that he had heard the explanation from the night guard to the morning guard - as long as he came to Kai Yuan, they would always say that she was not there.
Xu Chen immediately took out his mobile phone and called.
The phone rang five or six times before Kai Yuan picked it up. She just ran out of the toilet with a breathless voice.
"Hello?"
"Are you at home?"
Kai Yuan glanced at the screen of her mobile phone, confirming that it was the voice of Xu Chen.
She didn't save his number in the address book, but after all, she had memorized it before, and she knew it at a glance.
"What are you doing?" She said in a deliberately cold tone.
The deliberate alienation did not make Xu Chen back down.
"Last time, didn't you say that the company should add some benefits that can make employees with children feel more at ease. I've almost done it, and I want to show you. Are you free now?" He warmly invited her.
His intentions could not have been more obvious.
"I'm not your employee, why would you show it to me?"
She thought that Xu Chen was just looking for a reason to see her.
The direct rejection made Xu Chen stunned, and quickly thought of a way to persuade her.
"You can decide for yourself." Kai Yuan played an iron-clad defense.
"But it was you who proposed it at the beginning. You are the founder of the project. Of course, you have to check to see if there are any problems that need to be improved. Do you want to break your promise and get fat?"
He held his breath as he waited for her to break the silence.
Every second of silence slowed his confidence.
Ignore him or not?
If there is a flower at hand, she will definitely pick it up and pull out the petals for divination.
After hesitating for a while, she thought that this was indeed her proposal. Ignoring him after taking a look seemed reasonable.
Anyway, this is just the reason why he is looking for her, just be perfunctory to him?
"Do I need to go to your company?"
Did she agree?
The overjoyed Xu Chen clenched his fists and jumped on the spot, before replying in a serious tone:
"I'm downstairs in your house now, but the guard said you're not here."
"Oh..." She told the guard not to let him come up. "He probably didn't see me coming back, wait for me."
She grabbed her coat and put it on, and when she went downstairs, she saw Xu Chen.
Kai Yuan thought that it was really impossible to continue to meet him like this. She always felt that her heart softened every time she saw him, and finally she always had to surrender.
She thought it would be the last time this time, not to see each other again in the future, she had to be determined to refuse.
"Find a place to talk." Xu Chen picked up the tablet in his hand.
"Then..."
She thought that she could never invite him to her house, neither his or hers, it was too dangerous.
"Have you eaten yet?" he asked.
"Not yet."
"Then let's talk while we eat."
Kai Yuan hesitated before agreeing.
"Let's go to the snack shop in the back." After all, she was hungry too.
"Okay." Xu Chen nodded hurriedly.
As long as she is willing to see him and eat with him, even if he is squatting on the roadside to eat instant noodles, he is happy.
It only takes two minutes to walk to the simple restaurant. The environment is quiet and the things are not expensive. It is affordable for Kai Yuan.
Kai Yuan ordered a fish fillet with rice, accompanied by black tea. Xu Chen looked at the menu for a while before ordering a beef fillet with black pepper, and also ordered side dishes such as hot and sour black fungus.
When it was time for the meal to arrive, Xu Chen opened the tablet and handed it to her.
On the tablet are the office plans before and after the renovation.
"The company's sample room decided to change it into a nursery area, but because there was no other space to display samples, I decided to rent another small office."
Kai Yuan couldn't understand the design drawing, so she studied it carefully. After a while, she still didn't understand the plan of the nursery area.
"What do you think about this?" she asked Xu Chen.
Xu Chen simply sat next to her and clicked the screen with his fingertips.
"This is the sample chamber," two fingers swiped, and the sample chamber was maximized. "The floor will be covered with clever spelling... This is the book area, this is the game area, because there are school-age children, so there will be tables and chairs..."
He explained one by one eloquently. Kai Yuan realized that he was not looking for a reason to call her out, he was really planning with his heart, and carefully considered the needs of both the child and the parents.
This man's serious appearance is very attractive, his eyes are bright, and his face is as charming as a filter, not to mention that Xu Chen is already good-looking, Kai Yuan forgot her feelings for a while, staring at his handsome face, completely confused that she forgot how much I hated this man.
"...The concrete walls will be knocked down and replaced with tempered glass, so that we can see the condition of the children inside."
When Xu Chen turned his head, he met Kai Yuan's eyes and saw her stunned and puzzled. Asked, "What's wrong? Did I talk too much?"
"No, no." Kai Yuan's face turned slightly red when she recovered. "I just didn't expect... I didn't expect for you to do it so carefully in just a few days."
"Because it was your suggestion, I want to quickly produce results for you to see."
"Yes, ah?"
He noticed Kai Yuan's expression. It's a little strange, and her face is a little red.
"Are you sick?"
"Ah?" Sick?
"You're blushing," he put a big hand on her forehead and touched her face again. "It seems to be a little bit hot."
"No, no..." Knowing what was going on, she became a little flustered, "I'm fine, I'm fine."
"I'll take you to the doctor after dinner."
"It's really okay."
Embarrassed, she really wanted to escape from this place, and she was even more afraid that he would find out that she was stupid just now.
"Are you really okay?"
A flash of light flashed in his mind, and Xu Chen suddenly realized that her blushing had nothing to do with fever.
"Did you just say that you will still ask the teacher to guide the children’s homework?" Kai Yuan quickly started the topic to avoid the awkward atmosphere. "That's great, maybe, maybe you can ask an art teacher to teach them some painting or something."
"I miss you so much."
"Huh?" Kai Yuan couldn't react to the sudden confession.
He suddenly held her hand on the table. Kai Yuan's heartbeat almost stopped.
"Stop torturing me, come back to me, okay?"
Pink lips moved, but she couldn't resolutely refuse like she did before.
The iron wall that only existed between the two seemed to be no longer erected. Xu Chen was overjoyed, and when his heart moved, he leaned forward to kiss Kai Yuan's lips -
"The meal is delivered."
The waiter dreadfully ruined the atmosphere.
