shallow marriage deep love

Lu Qinglan was a little surprised: "President Xia?"

"Miss Lu, Zhong Nian." Xia Yan smiled slightly, as if he didn't realize how much surprise his appearance brought to others.

Only his assistant knew that the reason why he was standing at the elevator entrance was to see Miss Zhong a second earlier.

Turning sideways, Xia Yan moved out of the way: "Go to my office, the interview is also there, everything is ready."

"Xia Yan, why don't I go to the conference room and wait for you?" Zhong Nian didn't move, "You guys are waiting for work, it's not good for me to stay here."

Xia Yan smiled and looked at her, his eyes were full of doting smile at the moment: "Do you have to be so polite with me? Let's go, let's chat together."

Unable to refuse, Zhong Nian could only follow him into Xia Yan's office.

No one noticed that behind them, after Miao Yiyang looked away from Xia Yan and Zhong Nian, she lowered her head, her eyes were dark, she curled her lips in self-deprecating, took a deep breath, and she just Follow in Lu Qinglan's footsteps.

Contracts were signed, interviews were done, and everything went smoothly.

After the end, it was close to twelve noon.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Qinglan stood up, ready to pack her things and go back to the magazine office.

Xia Yan stood up and called her back: "Miss Lu, let's have lunch together. I have already ordered the restaurant with my assistant. I have worked hard for you and your colleagues today." As if he was afraid that she would refuse, he turned his head to face her again. Zhong Nian, "Together?"

Zhong Nian subconsciously looked at Lu Qinglan, everything was based on her.

Knowing that Xia Yan is not someone who would change his decision easily, Lu Qinglan did not refuse, and readily agreed: "Then respect is worse than obedience."

But Miao Yiyang shook her head: "Sister Lan, I won't go, I still have a bunch of photos to be repaired urgently." After a pause, she lowered her voice and said embarrassingly, "I'm on my period, it's not very Appetite."

Although her voice was small, Xia Yan still heard it.

Glancing at her thoughtfully, he twitched the corners of his lips imperceptibly, but didn't speak.

Miao Yiyang raised her head inadvertently after finishing speaking, just in time to meet Xia Yan's meaningful probing gaze, suffocated, she quickly moved away and looked elsewhere with indifferent eyes.

"Then pay attention to your health and take a taxi back later." Lu Qinglan also saw that Miao Yiyang was in a bad mood today, so she didn't force it.

"it is good."

Xia Yan didn't let the assistant follow, and directly drove Lu Qinglan and Zhong Nian to the reserved restaurant.

"Specially ordered the chef here to make you a separate nutrition package suitable for pregnant women. I didn't have your opinion before, don't you mind?" Legs crossed, the whole person leaned on the back of the chair relaxedly, he looked like He said casually, "But if you don't like it, you can make another one."

The hand holding the menu paused, and Lu Qinglan was slightly taken aback. After a few seconds, she looked at Xia Yan and smiled embarrassedly: "I didn't expect Mr. Xia to take care of me, a pregnant woman, so I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You're welcome." Xia Yan shook her head gracefully, and unconsciously glanced at Zhong Nian, "You are Zhong Nian's friend, so naturally you are my friend, as it should be. Right, Zhong Nian?"

"Xia Yan, I'm going to feel embarrassed when you say that." Zhong Nian looked at him with a smile.

Seeing her cute and coquettish appearance, Xia Yan's eyes darkened, and he smiled without saying a word.

Rumor has it that Xia Yan is a difficult person to get close to, and if he stays with him for a minute, he will feel a lot of pressure.However, to Lu Qinglan's surprise, during the whole meal, Xia Yan was extremely easy-going, and the light that outsiders cast on him faded away. In fact, he was no different from ordinary people, talkative, funny, and occasionally humorous.

But maybe it was because he and Zhong Nian were old, Lu Qinglan thought so.

Halfway through the meal, Zhong Nian got up to go to the bathroom.

Xia Yan watched her leave, then raised her eyes and said to Lu Qinglan: "By the way, Ms. Lu, regarding today's interview, I hope I can have a look at the first draft after it comes out."

"Of course it's no problem." Lu Qinglan put down her chopsticks, "Even if Mr. Xia didn't tell you we would still do this, please rest assured that we won't disappoint you."

"That's good." Xia Yan raised his cup and took a sip of tea.

The next second, he suddenly put down his cup and raised his hand to reach Lu Qinglan's hair.

Lu Qinglan didn't even have time to react, she only heard him say: "A dirty thing stuck to your hair."

Then, he put his hand down and showed her what he was holding.

"Thank you." Although she knew that he meant well, Lu Qinglan was still a little unnatural. The actions just now were a bit intimate considering the friendship they just met.

"Mrs. Ye?"

Suddenly, she heard an unfamiliar voice calling her, and then the sound of footsteps stopped nearby.

She didn't know if she felt wrong, but she felt that the voice was deliberate.

Looking up in doubt, he didn't expect to see Ye Tingshen standing in front of him, and the voice came from a person behind him.

The man was still going on, as if he was surprised to meet Lu Qinglan here: "Mrs. Ye is really you. When I walked over, I thought I was wrong, but I didn't dare to admit it, ha ha." Almost without stopping for a second , he said cheerfully to Ye Tingshen, "Mayor Ye is also surprised, isn't he?"

No matter how she listened, Lu Qinglan felt that the man spoke as if gloating, which made people uncomfortable, especially when his eyes were scanning back and forth between herself and Xia Yan.

She wasn't worried that Ye Tingshen would misunderstand Xia Yan's actions just now, but she was afraid that the people behind him would misunderstand.

Ye Tingshen didn't pay attention to what the person behind him said. When he walked up to her, he held her hand very naturally and asked, "The interview is over? Where's Zhong Nian?"

"She went to the bathroom." Meeting his eyes, and in front of so many people, Lu Qinglan's face turned slightly red.

Ye Tingshen asked again: "Well, are you still feeling sick today?" He still has lingering fears about her sudden discomfort last night.

Lu Qinglan shook her head, signaling him not to worry: "No, today is fine."

Ye Ting nodded deeply, then glanced at Xia Yan again.

Xia Yan originally thought that Ye Tingshen would talk to him, and he was prepared for how to respond, but he never expected that Ye Tingshen just glanced at him, and then directly ignored him!And that kind of ignorance does not make people feel that he is arrogant and rude.

"Fourth brother? You're here too?" Zhong Nian was quite surprised to see Ye Ting. When he saw the people behind him, he realized that he might have a meal, so he said with a smile, "I went to the bathroom just now, Lan Lan Don't worry, I will take good care of her and send her back later."

"En, good." Ye Ting spoke concisely, squeezed Lu Qinglan's palm and said softly, "I still have a dinner here, go first, call me if you need anything, eh?"

"Okay, let's go." Lu Qinglan nodded obediently.

"Let's go." Ye Ting let go of her, and said in a deep voice to Xu Cheng beside him.At this moment, he returned to his cool appearance, with an aura of aura all over his body.

Lu Qinglan saw that the person who spoke before seemed unwilling to say anything, but no matter whether it was Ye Tingshen or the others, no one paid attention to him, so angry that he almost stomped his feet.

Zhong Nian didn't know what happened before, and was still surprised: "Why do I feel that the atmosphere is weird?"

"It's nothing." Lu Qinglan didn't want to talk about Xia Yan's behavior just now in front of Zhong Nian, but changed the subject, "Nian Nian, have you finished eating? I remembered that the magazine has something to do, and I want to go back soon."

Zhong Nian did not doubt that there was him: "Okay, I will see you off."

Lu Qinglan picked up the bag, looked at Xia Yan seriously, and said politely with a little alienation: "President Xia, I'm sorry, I have to go first, thank you for your hospitality."

"It's okay, Ms. Lu can go to work first if you have something to do. If there was a misunderstanding between you and your husband just now, Ms. Lu, I can explain it." Although Xia Yan said so, Xia Yan snorted coldly in his heart .

Lu Qinglan frowned slightly when she heard his words.

He... did it on purpose?
I know maybe I shouldn't think this way, but this idea just popped up out of control.

"What happened and you misunderstood?" After getting into the car, Zhong Nian couldn't hold back and asked.

Knowing that if she didn't mention Zhong Nian, she would definitely ask the bottom line, Lu Qinglan sighed helplessly and told her what happened just now.

"That's it?" Zhong Nian expressed his incomprehension, "Fourth brother will not misunderstand, but what happened to the person next to fourth brother? I feel uncomfortable listening to you talking, but fortunately I am not here, otherwise I would not be able to control myself Temper." After a few words of comfort, she continued, "Anyway, I don't think it's a big deal, Xia Yan is a gentleman, but it's just to help you get rid of a dirty thing."

Hearing this, Lu Qinglan tentatively asked: "You know Xia Yan well?"

Zhong Nian smiled: "It's not that I understand, but that I can't make mistakes in judging people. It's not that you don't know that I must make friends based on whether they suit my temper."

"Indeed." Lu Qinglan nodded with a smirk, thinking of her guess about Xia Yan, she suddenly felt a little guilty, she couldn't help wondering if she was thinking too much.

Xia Yan watched Zhong Nian's car leave, and looked at the pile of dishes on the table, he curled his lips indifferently, took out his mobile phone and dialed a number: "Did you get the picture?"

"Mr. Xia, don't worry, the photo is very clear, and it's completely according to your request."

"Very good." Xia Yan was very satisfied, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the table, and said slowly, "Send the photo to Assistant Li, and he will tell you what to do next."

"Okay, Mr. Xia."

Putting the phone away, he looked in the direction Ye Tingshen left, with a cruel smile on his face.

Ye Tingshen, let's play slowly.

When Lu Qinglan returned to the magazine, it was not time for work in the afternoon, and only Miao Yiyang was typing on the computer in the office.

"Have you eaten yet?" Lu Qinglan walked over and handed her a can of brown sugar water, "I bought it at a convenience store when I came back. Didn't you feel uncomfortable during your period? Drinking this will make you feel better."

The hands typing on the keyboard paused, Miao Yiyang stared at the brown sugar water without looking up.
