The Love of My Life: The Deep Fall of the Chief

Chapter 18: Can't own feelings

From the first moment she saw that woman, she was jealous from the bottom of her heart. God not only gave her a beautiful appearance, but also gave her an aura that made all men crazy about her.

Maybe she can't feel it, but as a veteran who has been in love for many years, Jiang Ruoxi can tell at the first sight that He Xiaoran's stubbornness is most likely to attract strong men, such as Luoyang, or even Anchengxi.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ruoxi couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart.

Taking a deep breath calmly, she looked at Luoyang neither humble nor overbearing and said: "Yes, Mr. Luo, it is a common practice for the design department to evaluate new employees, and He Xiaoran should not be treated specially just because he was introduced by you. , I suppose you don't want that either, do you?"

Luo Yang swallowed the coffee in his mouth, and the bitter taste filled his mouth. Seeing Jiang Ruoxi's aggressive appearance, An Chengxi must have explained to her long ago.

Jiang Ruoxi's answer was really perfect, because He Xiaoran was introduced by him, so he couldn't meddle in other people's business, otherwise it would just make people fall for selfishness.

It's just that he knew about the case, and He Xiaoran might have to worry about it. He knew that according to He Xiaoran's temperament, he would never draw a random picture and use it for a job.

Putting his arms on the table, he stretched out his slender fingers and rubbed the center of his brows, "Okay, I see, you can go down."

He didn't want to talk nonsense with Jiang Ruoxi anymore, he had to find a way to help He Xiaoran.

He Xiaoran was concentrating on looking up the information, when suddenly there was a jingle, and the phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was a text message from Lu Siyuan, "Xiao Ran, let's watch a movie together tonight, my treat."

The corners of He Xiaoran's lips twitched slightly, and he was about to reply.

"He Xiaoran, come up to eat with me at noon." Luo Yang knocked on her table and stood aside, causing the female comrades in the office area to sigh.

Fortunately, everyone already knew about the relationship between him and He Xiaoran, so this sentence did not cause much repercussions.

He Xiaoran raised his head and couldn't help frowning. Is he a child?Do you need someone to accompany you to eat?
Just wanted to refuse, but Luoyang didn't give her a chance to speak at all, and he had already walked away.

There is a dedicated small kitchen upstairs, and the CEO's working meals are not insignificant.

The posture of Luoyang holding the chopsticks is very elegant. His slender and fair hands are indeed born to belong to the designer's hands. For this, no one else can be jealous.

Luo Yang picked up a few chopsticks and put kidney beans in He Xiaoran's bowl, "Your favorite dish, try it, and see if it still tastes the same."

He Xiaoran lowered her head, pursed her lips and said nothing, not knowing what she was thinking.

After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the kidney beans in the bowl and put them in his mouth.

With one sip, He Xiaoran almost cried.

Knowing that He Xiaoran loves kidney beans the most, Luoyang specially learned this dish. He likes to put a little vinegar in it, which tastes better.

I have not eaten it for many years, but the taste has not changed at all, it is still a little sour, it is still fried badly, and even, I forgot to put salt
Because he always forgot to add salt, He Xiaoran told him countless times, but he couldn't remember.

I finally remembered it later, but after that time, He Xiaoran never ate his fried kidney beans again.

He Xiaoran smiled unnaturally, without looking up at him, swallowed the kidney beans in his mouth and said: "But I don't like kidney beans anymore."

"Lie." Luo Yang looked at her calmly, and easily revealed the secret in her heart.

He Xiaoran didn't know how to refute. He lowered his head and ate all the kidney beans in the bowl into his mouth, took a few more mouthfuls of rice, and then raised his head, "Mr. thing"

"It's okay, I'll try again."

"Then this morning's paper."

"The newspaper is good. Kevin's assistant called me this morning and said that our case has been passed."

"What?" He Xiaoran was taken aback for a moment, then raised his head to meet Luoyang's calm eyes, which were so deep that one couldn't see through them.

He Xiaoran suddenly felt that he was a little different from before. Although he was just as domineering in the past, even when he was angry, he could always see through what he was thinking at a glance.

But now, He Xiaoran didn't even know when he was really angry and when he was just pretending.

What happened last night, did he really dislike Kevin's enthusiasm for him, or was it just a plot of his?
"Oh." He Xiaoran agreed, not knowing whether to be happy or sad, he lowered his head to eat his own meal.

Luo Yang chuckled indifferently, lowered his eyelids, picked up a kidney bean that he fried himself, and put it in his mouth, but his expression froze instantly.

Damn, why forgot to put salt again.

But He Xiaoran ate all the kidney beans he had just put into her bowl calmly, and he kept staring at her, but he didn't notice any difference in her expression.

Luo Yang hesitated for a moment, and swallowed the kidney beans in his mouth forcefully, "Let's eat first, we'll talk after we finish."

It was embarrassing to eat a meal, and He Xiaoran felt that he would definitely suffer from indigestion when he went back today.

She deliberately didn't tell Luoyang that there was no salt in his dishes. On the one hand, she didn't want to bring up too many topics, and on the other hand, she suddenly had the idea of ​​teasing Luoyang.

He exploited himself in such a way that he couldn't avenge a big revenge, so it's always okay to let him suffer a small loss.

He Xiaoran almost laughed out loud just now when he saw the rich changes on Luoyang's face. He was so frightened that he lowered his head and ate, fearing that he would see something, and finally calmed down.

Drinking a glass of freshly squeezed fruit juice after a meal has always been a habit in Luoyang, but He Xiaoran discovered that the former fruit juice has become coffee.

Luo Yang pushed a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice in front of He Xiaoran, and then gently stirred the coffee in his cup.

The familiar aroma of coffee filled the air, and He Xiaoran knew it was freshly ground Blue Mountain as soon as he smelled it.

"I heard that Anchengxi gave you a new case?"

"Yeah." He Xiaoran lowered his head and didn't touch the juice in front of him.

"Try it. There is no standing fruit in the company. I asked them to buy it just now. It is fresh." Luo Yang took a sip of the coffee in his cup, and then said, "That case is not suitable for you at all, why didn't you refuse?"

He Xiaoran glanced at the juice in the glass, crossed his hands on the table, and looked calm, "Since Mr. Luo has arranged me in the company, I can't embarrass Mr. Luo."

"If you can't finish it, you can come and beg me." Luoyang didn't like to see He Xiaoran's calm look the most. Even if he was angry, beating him and scolding him was more comfortable than it is now.

But He Xiaoran seemed to be determined after eating the weight, as if he must fight him to the end.

After hearing what he said, the expression on He Xiaoran's face moved slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, "I don't think so, the task assigned to me by the boss, there is no reason to ask others for help."

She has made up her mind in her heart that nothing is difficult in the world, as long as there is a heart, even if she is sleepless these days, she will draw a decent design to show to those who laugh at her.

Luo Yang knew that he couldn't convince her, so he didn't say much, just said, "If you really can't handle it, you can come to me at any time. Don't forget that the money you owe me hasn't started to pay, if you If you are kicked out of the company, then it is clearly stated in the contract."

Luoyang is threatening her. The contract clearly states that there is no such thing as a free pie in the sky. If He Xiaoran is kicked out of the company because of his lack of personal ability, what price will he pay? hand.

She really hated He Yuzhi, but after all, He Yuzhi was still her uncle, the only relative she had in this world.

Even if he said harsh words at that time and didn't care about him, how could he really ignore him?If she really didn't care, I'm afraid she would not agree to Luoyang's conditions at that time.

It's like crying for a long time when one of my cats died when I was a child, even if I scratched her face and broke her favorite toy.

Too soft heart is a shortcoming that He Xiaoran cannot overcome.

It was precisely because of this weakness of hers that Luoyang was able to deal with her severely.

Biting her lower lip, He Xiaoran nodded and walked out of the private dining room upstairs.

At this time, she was like a person who was forced into the cracks. Only by constantly squeezing herself could she survive.

And Luoyang, Anchengxi, He Yuzhi and even Lu Siyuan are all part of the cracked wall.

For more than a week, He Xiaoran was the first one to go to work and the last one to leave work every day.

There are still two days until the final time agreed with Anchengxi. Sitting on the window seat of the last bus, watching the city's neon lights constantly changing various colors, He Xiaoran lowered his head and leaned on the bus. On the stiff back of the seat, he rubbed his sore eye sockets.

What to do, two weeks passed so quickly, but I still couldn't do anything about the drawings.

He Xiaoran didn't know how to choose between going to beg Luoyang and giving He Yuzhi a hand.

Luoyang didn't make any moves these days, and he kept talking to Lu Siyuan carefully every night. He just thought that he was busy with work and didn't notice anything.

It's just that since He Xiaoran told Lu Siyuan the password of his own door lock, every day when he comes home from get off work, he can see the washed fruit in the refrigerator, sometimes with a heart-warming note.

He Xiaoran didn't reject Lu Siyuan's naive little gesture, nor did he point it out. Instead, he felt very heartwarming. This could be regarded as the only ray of sunshine in his dark days.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt someone touch his shoulder.

Although this was the last bus, the place where He Xiaoran lived was not close to Shengshi, and the number of people along the way continued unabated.

Most of these are office workers who are exhausted in this city, holding a meager salary, but have to do several times the work.

They can't afford a car or a house. Most of them, like He Xiaoran, commute to get off work by bus every day, live in rented houses, and are exploited by the upper class every day. Deprived of health.
