The super rich starts with the self-discipline challenge

Chapter 16 A wonderful fate

In the elevator, Ruan Xi was about to press the button for the seventh floor, but was stopped by Zhong Yun, "Come upstairs with me."

"Oh."

She withdrew her hands, holding the worn English dictionary in both hands, and looked down at her toes.

She was wearing a pair of white canvas shoes that looked a little old but were brushed very clean.

Seeing her standing there quietly without any vigilance, Zhong Yun couldn't help but shake his head secretly. This girl was too naive and had no guard against men at all.

Soon, we arrived at the eighth floor.

The two came to his door and said, "Bring me the key to your house."

Ruan Xi took out the key from his pocket and handed it to him without asking him what he wanted to do.

Zhong Yun took the key, inserted it into the door lock of his house, turned it gently, and with a click, the door opened, even smoother than his own key.

"what--"

Ruan Xi opened her mouth slightly, looking very surprised.

Zhong Yun looked at her silly look, suppressed the urge to pinch her cheek, put the key in her hand, and said, "See? From now on, if I'm not at home, you should use your own key to open the door and go in and wait. Don't wait foolishly at the door. If someone doesn't know, they would think you are looking for me to collect debts."

"What's going on?"

Ruan Xi was still a little confused and didn't understand how her key could open the door of Zhong Yun's house.

Zhong Yun couldn't help shaking her head. It seemed that her aunt didn't care about her at all and didn't even mention changing the locks to her.

He didn't explain, and said, "It's late, go back and get some rest."

……

Ruan Xi returned to the seventh floor, took out the key, and successfully opened the door. Only then was she sure that this was really her key.

She suddenly understood how Zhong Yun got into her house that day.

She had always thought that she had forgotten to close the door.

I didn't expect it was because of this.

His key can open the door of his own house.

His own key can open the door of his house.

What a wonderful fate.

Ruan Xi closed the door and put the key in the key tray. She walked through the living room, returned to the room, and closed the curtains.

She changed into her pajamas, sat down on the bed, took the bottle of sleeping pills from the bedside table, and unscrewed the cap.

Since her mother jumped off the building, she began to suffer from insomnia and could not sleep all night. After seeing a doctor, she had to rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep.

Ruan Xi poured the pills into her palm and was about to swallow them when she suddenly stopped.

She pursed her lips, put the pills back into the bottle and tightened the cap.

Then I lay down on the bed, turned off the bedside lamp, and closed my eyes.

Ten minutes later, with a click, Ruan Xi turned on the light again, got out of bed, walked through the living room, came to the entrance, and took the key from the plate.

She lay back on the bed, turned off the lights, held the key in her hand, placed it against her chest, and a sense of security filled her heart.

Gradually, she fell asleep.

She slept very soundly that night.

……

At six o'clock in the morning, Ruan Xi woke up from the alarm. She opened her hand and was relieved to see that the key was still there.

She opened the curtains, and a beam of golden sunlight shone on her face. She stretched lazily with a look of satisfaction.

After washing up, she began to recite.

Drop drop drop.

At 6:50, the alarm clock rang on time.

Ruan Xi turned off the alarm clock, put on her schoolbag, put on the pair of canvas shoes that had become a little pale from washing, and went out.

She stood in front of the elevator and looked at the floor number. It was on the first floor. She took out the English dictionary from yesterday and memorized English words silently.

She never pressed the elevator button.

A minute later, the elevator suddenly moved. She looked up and saw that the elevator stopped on the 13th floor. She then looked away and continued to memorize words.

Another few minutes passed.

The door of the house next door opened, and a woman in her thirties came out with a schoolbag and a child of seven or eight years old. When she saw Ruan Xi, she greeted her, "Are you going to school?"

"Ah."

Ruan Xi nodded politely.

The woman came over and pressed the elevator button. After a while, the elevator arrived.

She pulled her son in and saw Ruan Xi still standing outside with no intention of moving, so she asked her, "Aren't you going to come in?" Ruan Xi shook her head, indicating that she would not come down yet.

After the elevator door closed, she looked at the English dictionary in her hand again.

Another few minutes passed.

The elevator moved again, and this time, it stopped on the eighth floor.

Ruan Xi finally closed the dictionary and pressed the elevator button.

After a while, the elevator arrived and the door opened. Zhong Yun, wearing a suit, stood inside with his hands in his pockets. He looked at her and gave her a warm smile, "Good morning."

"morning."

Ruan Xi responded, walked into the elevator and stood beside him.

Zhong Yun asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"No."

"Let's go together then."

"it is good."

"Aren't you going to school today?"

"Ah."

……

The two chatted casually like this and came to a breakfast shop outside the community. They squeezed in front of a small table, sat face to face, and each ordered a bowl of noodles.

Zhong Yun ate very quickly and finished a big bowl of noodles in one slurp.

Ruan Xi had just eaten half of her meal when she suddenly put down her chopsticks and took out a tissue from her pocket to wipe her mouth.

Zhong Yun saw that most of the noodles were left in the bowl, and the meat inside was untouched. He asked, "You're only going to eat this little?"

She said, “I can’t eat anymore.”

"Such a waste."

Zhong Yunduan took her bowl, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Ruan Xi held her chin with her hand and watched him with her bright eyes until he finished all the noodles she had left. After he put down the bowl and burped, she handed him a piece of paper.

Zhong Yun took the paper, wiped his mouth, stood up and said, "Let's go."

When it came time to pay the bill, they each paid their own bill.

After leaving the breakfast shop, Ruan Xi watched Zhong Yun leave before walking briskly towards the community.

……

Zhong Yun sent Su Wan to the company. When he passed by the office of Xu Zhiyan's department, everyone greeted him warmly, except Xu Zhiyan.

He didn't take it seriously, he just felt a little full in the morning so he decided to run a few laps to help digest the food.

When he passed the tea room, Chaozi stopped him and said, "Brother Yun, have you heard that a new deputy director joined our company yesterday? I heard that she is super beautiful, like a big star."

Ren Gang at the side said quietly, "The key is that he is only 23 years old. It is said that he was promoted to deputy director one year after graduating from university. How deep is his background?"

This kind of conversation sounds somehow familiar.

Zhong Yun quickly remembered that they had said the same thing when Xu Zhiyan had first come to the company.

Of course, Xu Zhiyan is just an ordinary employee.

The new guy is a deputy director, which is a huge difference in positions.

However, he had heard a lot of such things. For a big company like this, it was normal to parachute in a prince or a young lady.

The group is not listed. To put it bluntly, it is a private company and only needs to be accountable to its shareholders.

……

"Humph."

Xu Zhiyan originally wanted to go to the tea room to make a cup of coffee, but when she heard several male colleagues talking, she returned to her seat with an unhappy look on her face.

Luo Qiaoling, who was sitting next to her, noticed that she was in a bad mood, so she came over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"None of these stinky men are good. When they heard that a beautiful director had arrived, they were all so excited."

Luo Qiaoling knew she was mentally unbalanced as soon as she heard it, because she was unhappy that the new director had stolen her limelight. She happened to see Zhong Yun coming out of the tea room and thought she was referring to Zhong Yun, so she asked in a low voice, "Zhi Yan, why do you have such a big opinion about Zhong Yun? Did you know each other before?"

"Who knows him?"

Xu Zhiyan vehemently denied it. In her opinion, going on a blind date with Zhong Yun and mistakenly thinking that he was a rich second-generation and taking the initiative to ask him out several times was a stain.

She didn't want anyone to know that she had a blind date with a driver and they almost became boyfriend and girlfriend.

"Oh."

Luo Qiaoling obviously didn't believe her.
