After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Shen Xiling just stood quietly beside Lu Ranran.

Indeed, just by standing in the corner, he could automatically attract countless people's attention.

The originally bustling construction building automatically formed "Shen Xiling's field" and "other fields" after Shen Xiling arrived.

There were quite a few bold people in the crowd who were seduced by the "beauty" and didn't care that Lu Ranran was right beside them.

He walked towards Shen Xiling in one go.

In the end, they were all scared back by a sharp glare.

The smile on that face was obviously gentle and the eyes were just a slight glance, but it made people feel a chill.

It also makes people wonder how strong the girl's mental endurance is to be able to stand next to him.

Wang Ruohan stood in the crowd, her face full of interest, but not towards Shen Xiling.

What she was focusing on was Lu Keke who was standing at the side of the driveway.

Maybe everyone has forgotten it long ago.

When Shen Xiling got off the car, Lu Keke excitedly went to greet him, but was automatically ignored by Shen Xiling.

After catching a glimpse that Shen Xiling was looking for Lu Ranran, Lu Keke's embarrassed expression became even more distorted.

Now, she didn't know who to call, and was swearing some very ugly words into the person on the other end of the phone.

However, except for Wang Ruohan who was looking for materials, no one present noticed her little corner.

Everyone was looking at Lu Ranran secretly.

Shen Xiling has his own aura that always makes people avoid looking at him.

But Lu Ranran beside him is not like that.

Everyone present couldn't help but look at this girl who looked very ordinary at first glance.

She is dressed in ordinary clothes, her hairstyle is not exquisite, and she has no makeup on...but no one can deny that she is beautiful.

Delicate facial features, graceful figure, these descriptions have lost their effectiveness here.

In the hazy rain and fog, she seemed to be covered in moisture, just like the clouds and mist in which a fairy appears on TV.

She just raised her head slightly, and everyone caught a glimpse of her almond-shaped eyes, and their hearts were moved.

It was a kind of graceful beauty that came from the air around her.

She tilted her head to look at Shen Xiling, then quickly lowered her head, her voice very soft and shy.

"How did you come?"

"Didn't you ask me to pick you up?"

"I meant to send Xiao Li..."

The voice gradually became smaller, and whatever was said afterwards was drowned out by the sound of rain.

"Xiao Li has something urgent to do."

"I just happened to have a day off this afternoon, so I'll be replacing Xiao Li."

Lu Ranran found the word "holiday" ridiculous, let alone "replacement".

But Shen Xiling spoke in a calm tone, as if it was really the case.

"Why, don't you want to see me?"

Lu Ranran was startled and looked up at Shen Xiling. He lowered his head slightly, with an obscure expression on his face.

The eyes are like deep pools, and no one knows what is hidden beneath the calm surface of the water.

Lu Ranran's heart twitched, and she turned back, looking at her toes, and stammered:

"No......"

"You can come if you want."

After the words were spoken, there was silence.

A car drove past in front of us at a pretty fast speed, and its wheels created quite a lot of waves.

Lu Ranran woke up as if from a dream, and felt that what she said was not appropriate, so she quickly added:

"No, I mean..."

"Whether it's Xiao Li or you, it's all good..."

The air pressure around Shen Xiling dropped again.

Lu Ranran became more and more confused as she spoke.

The thoughts in my heart became a tangled mess because of Shen Xiling's stirring.

Every word of explanation Lu Ranran said was like accidentally pulling out a thread from a tangled mess, and was meaningless in helping to clarify one's thoughts.

Finally, Lu Ranran slumped his shoulders in frustration and apologized weakly.

"I'm sorry..."

Shen Xiling was stunned and tightened his grip on the umbrella handle.

"Why say sorry?"

"Actually, I didn't want you to come."

The rain showed no sign of abating, and after the terrifying light, there was a deafening roar.

The huge sound waves caused ripples among the crowd, and even Shen Xiling felt a moment of hesitation in his mind.

"Yeah......"

Lu Ranran, who was immersed in his thoughts, was not frightened by the thunder and continued:

"Lu Keke, I don't know how she became my colleague again. She treated everyone to dinner today."

"She said it was her fiancé's invitation, and she was showing off her affection. It's really annoying..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiling raised his eyebrows and tilted his head to look at Lu Ranran, seeming a little surprised.

It’s not the “Lu Keke” in her language, but her tone.

The soft annoyance mixed with a hint of coquettishness instantly soothed Shen Xiling's irritated heart.

If Lu Ranran knew about this, she would definitely deny that she was not acting like a spoiled child.

However, this is all for later.

At this moment, she still lowered her head and spoke with a somewhat annoyed tone.

"I really... hate her. I hate her showing off that she has everything and is so superior."

"I'm also very angry. Why is it that she always has everything, while I...we can only be the one she laughs at?"

"So I sent you a message in a fit of rage."

Lu Ranran looked up at Shen Xiling with an apologetic look.

Growing up, Lu Ranran actually doesn’t have many familiar friends.

Zhang Xiaoyuan, who filmed the micro-film with him, is only familiar to him as an internet friend.

So Lu Ranran subconsciously sent it to Shen Xiling.

The two may not be familiar with each other, but they are married, so they should be closer than others.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"You... and Xiao Li, are actually quite busy. You still have to take time out to deal with me, really——"

"It's no trouble." Shen Xiling raised the corners of his lips and interrupted Lu Ranran.

"what?"

"I said, you didn't cause me any trouble."

Under Lu Ranran's gaze, Shen Xiling's eyes became brighter, as if they were stained with water color.

"I would have come even if you hadn't asked."

Lu Ranran widened her eyes slightly, and was stunned for a while before she asked:

"why?"

Shen Xiling smiled gently and spoke in a light tone.

“Because I’m too tired from work.”

"I want to go out for a walk and help a friend."

It was hard to tell whether he was relieved or a little disappointed. Lu Ranran did not ask what he was helping with.

However, Lu Ranran no longer needed to sort out the mess in her heart, and she felt much more relaxed.

As a president, there are many ways to relax, but I've never heard that he would consider picking people up in the rain as a way to relax.

Perhaps because of this, Lu Ranran suddenly felt warm in her heart.

No matter what Shen Xiling's reason was, she didn't want to think too much about it.

She just wanted to enjoy this brief moment of happiness of being valued.

Lu Ranran stretched out her hand, and a few drops of rain fell on her palm, feeling cool, making her chuckle unconsciously.

Shen Xiling was surprised, "What are you laughing at?"

The girl next to her shook her head and smiled.

"No, I think you're a nice person."

Shen Xiling was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.

"So you can tell me?"

“How did I become a chef?”
