Rebirth: The paranoid boss has a crush on me

Qu Wei finished the unfinished project and asked Fei Linlin to treat him to a meal.

"You have to treat me to a nice meal. This is the first time I'm doing a project with my own money."

Fei Linlin said, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"This..." Qu Wei didn't expect her to agree so readily. He was stumped for a moment, but that didn't stop him from saying, "Let's have Western food. I want to have at least two steaks today."

Fei Linlin usually goes out to eat, so if they were to eat with one more person, they decided to go to the Crown Western Restaurant. Don't be fooled by the cheesy name, the food inside is really fresh and delicious, and the environment is also pretty good.

When Qu Wei arrived, he was a little surprised, "Why did you book such an expensive place?"

When conditions permit, Fei Linlin still pursues a certain lifestyle. "I usually come here to eat, whatever I want is fine."

Qu Wei's family was well-off and he wouldn't spend money like that. He had a new understanding of the profitability of Barron Pharmaceuticals, and in order not to embarrass Fei Linlin, he quickly put away his surprised expression.

After eating at this western restaurant, Qu Wei expressed his appreciation for Fei Linlin's taste, "It's a real treat to cook with you."

"Then we can go out to eat together later."

Qu Wei wanted to have dinner with Fei Linlin, but he didn't want to be led astray by Fei Linlin's lavish spending, so he said, "Okay, you treat me this time, and I'll cook for you next time."

After saying this, he curled the corners of his lips and smiled like a cunning fox.

Fei Linlin looked at his gentle face with worldly emotions. The old friend's appearance reappeared at this moment, suddenly pulling her into memories.

"Teacher Fei, Teacher Fei, what's wrong with you?"

Qu Wei saw Fei Linlin staring at his face without saying anything. At first he felt embarrassed for being stared at so directly by a lady. Later, he realized that Fei Linlin was in a daze, so he called her a few times.

Fei Linlin came back to her senses, "It's okay, you look pretty when you smile, you can smile more in the future."

She was not the first person to say this to Qu Wei, but Qu Wei's heart skipped a beat at this moment, "Really? If I can't make it in the academic circle in the future, I can still make a living by selling smiles outside."

Fei Linlin smiled and said, "Although what you said was a joke, if that day really comes, you can come find me."

Qu Wei asked without thinking, "Why?"

Fei Linlin said, "I hope you are always happy."

Qu Wei could hardly explain how he felt at this moment.

The atmosphere of this western restaurant is romantic and sentimental, with a grand piano. Fei Linlin suddenly asked, "Do you want to listen to some music?"

Qu Wei thought she wanted to order some music, "Okay."

Fei Linlin walked to the piano, sat down and played a love story.

The original song gives people a very lingering feeling. Fei Linlin made slight changes when playing it, bringing in other emotions, like an uncontrollable torrent of fate, which stirs people's emotions in such a luxurious and romantic environment.

The other people in the restaurant put down their cutlery gently and immersed themselves in it.

After Fei Linlin finished playing, people couldn't help but applaud.

She ignored the praises from others, only smiled at Qu Wei, and asked him, "What do you think?"

This is what she wanted to play for Lian Hongjun on the day she received her doctorate, but various things happened later and now she no longer has the chance to play it for him. She can only ask the person in front of her how he feels.

Qu Wei said succinctly, "Very good."

“Your evaluation is very concise.”

"That's great. I don't know much about music, but I can tell that you're a very good musician." Qu Wei suddenly stood up and said, "Teacher Fei, I'm going to the bathroom."

Qu Wei ran to the bathroom and covered his heart, thinking of an old-fashioned saying: It's over, I'm afraid I'm going to fall into her hands!

Fei Linlin didn't know what he was thinking. She just felt like she had accomplished something very important. She felt relaxed and sipped the red wine.

"Does Lu Yan know that you play the piano for Qu Wei?" an unhappy male voice sounded.

Shangguan Kai walked over and looked down at her with his hands folded.

He had been watching there for a long time. He had never known that Lu Yan's beautiful ex-wife had such high musical attainments. She was shining brightly sitting in front of the piano.

Fei Linlin didn't expect to meet Shangguan Kai again. It was understandable that they met at Liyuan last time, after all, Shangguan Kai lived there. How could they meet here again?

On second thought, the average consumption per person in this place is high, so it is normal to see a young man bringing his girlfriend out for dinner. The woman next to him is petite and lovely.

Fei Linlin said, "It doesn't matter if I know or not. He and I have broken up. Who I play the piano for is my own business."

Shangguan Kai choked, "You..."

Fei Linlin asked, "What do you think of the song I played?"

Shangguan Kai had studied music for a while and had some knowledge of piano music. Although he had never heard the piece Fei Linlin played, he knew it was of a very high level. "Not bad."

Fei Linlin said, "You listened to a piece of music for nothing, and you came to me to ask for accusations. Even if you have power and influence, you can't be so unreasonable."

Before Shangguan Kai could say anything, Ranran couldn't stand it anymore and stood in front of him, "How can you say that? Brother Kai is concerned about you and Mr. Lu. It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin!"

Although Shangguan Kai is not a good person, he is usually very polite and courteous when dealing with people. What Fei Linlin said made him reflect on his own qualities. Ranran's protection made him look even more like a bully.

Frowning, "Of course."

Ranran was young and her cheeks puffed out when she was angry. When Shangguan Kai called her name, she immediately judged from his tone that she had done something wrong and retreated in frustration.

Shangguan Kai said to Fei Linlin, "I want to apologize to you on behalf of Ranran. We are sorry for disturbing your meal."

Fei Linlin knew that Shangguan Kai would not think that he had done anything wrong. Perhaps in the heart of this young man, being able to apologize to her on behalf of his female companion was already a blessing.

But how could Fei Linlin let him go? "Your apology is insincere. I can't accept it. Please pay our bill so that I can pretend that you have never been here."

Shangguan Kai finally understood why Zhao Yucheng said that Fei Linlin was a little clever.

The request she made was neither high nor low. Even if Shangguan Kai was unwilling to apologize in this way, he could not refuse the request, otherwise it would show how narrow-minded he was. She found just the right measure to make him angry, but because it was really a small request, even if he wanted to retaliate, he was embarrassed to do so - it would be too embarrassing if it got out.

Suddenly, a deep and pleasant voice sounded behind him, "Xiao Kai, if your account balance is not enough, I will pay for you."

Shangguan Kai's body stiffened and he cursed himself for being nosy.

Turning around with Fei Linlin, they saw a tall man standing behind them, exuding a strong and unfathomable aura from head to toe. It was Lu Yan, who was not wearing formal clothes, and was accompanied by the cute and beautiful Zhan Xiao.

Fei Linlin nodded politely as a greeting but didn't say anything.

Shangguan Kai was surprised to find that Fei Linlin's expression did not change throughout the whole process. His emotions were so stable.

In the end, Shangguan Kai paid for the meal. Because the situation was too awkward, he also paid for Lu Yan's meal as well.

After leaving the house, Shangguan Kai asked the driver to take Ranran to school.

Ran Ran was confused, "Aren't we going to play tennis?"

Shangguan Kai closed his eyes and rested, "Oh, I'm tired."

The air-conditioning temperature was just right, but Ranran felt waves of coldness coming over her.

She wanted to ask why, but Shangguan didn't give her a chance. He turned around and got into another luxury car, the Cullinan, and drove away.

Shangguan Kai certainly knew that Ranran was confronting Fei Linlin to stand up for him. He was a little touched, but he didn't want to have an idiot around him to embarrass him.
