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

These words really scared Shen Beiyu.

His expression in front of Lu Ranran changed from shock to complexity, and finally turned as red as a tomato.

very interesting.

Lu Ranran also decided to stop while he was ahead.

"Okay, I—"

Unexpectedly, Shen Beiyu agreed.

"I, you... since, since you want to."

"I, I will definitely, I will definitely not let you down!"

He spoke haltingly, but one could feel his seriousness.

Lu Ranran was stunned for a moment.

By the time he reacted, Shen Beiyu had disappeared.

Lu Ranran felt a little emotional.

"What he said sounded like the truth. I felt a little guilty at that time."

"Who would have thought that he would end up giving me such a big one."

Shen Xiling poured the cooked soup base into the pot.

The kitchen was suddenly filled with a rich aroma of rice.

Li's mother is from Chaoshan, and it is said that this is the most common porridge-based hotpot in her hometown.

Shen Xiling held the pot and asked Lu Ranran to help bring all the dishes to the table.

Press the switch, the bottom of the pot boils and steam rises.

Lu Ranran was not sure whether her answer just now could satisfy Shen Xiling.

While he was thinking, he lost hold of the chopsticks in his hand and the red-scalded prawns fell back into the pot with a plop.

The splashing soup fell on the back of my hand.

Lu Ranran let out a soft “hiss”.

The next second, Shen Xiling took the wet towel and gently wiped away the small water stain.

"Are you okay? Does it hurt?"

Lu Ranran shook his head and asked:

"Are you still angry?"

"?"

When Shen Xiling threw the used wet wipes into the trash can, she suddenly heard this question.

My heart seemed to skip a beat.

Angry? I can't say.

Shen Xiling was very familiar with Shen Beiyu's speaking style.

He didn't even have the time to compete with Shen Beiyu.

If the two of them really have a mutual understanding.

When Shen's company was being built, Shen Xiling would not step forward at all.

If he was really angry, he was angry at himself.

After his father died in a car accident, his grandparents discussed with his mother and decided to keep Shen Xiling under strict protection.

It is to prevent someone from harming him, and also to prevent Shen Xiling from getting confused.

Shen Xiling thought, if he had been stronger at that time.

Then the person standing in front of Lu Ranran that year might not have been Shen Beiyu?

"Hey~" Lu Ranran stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Shen Xiling's eyes, "Why are you stunned?"

Shen Xiling came back to his senses and realized that he had lost his mind. Then he remembered what Lu Ranran had just asked.

Before he could say anything, Lu Ranran asked:

"Are you worried that I'll regret it?"

Of course Shen Xiling was not worried.

Especially when he entered the door and saw Lu Ranran holding a pair of scissors and fighting with the shrimp.

What could be more precious than a lively, vivid and charming Lu Ranran?

As long as she can be happy.

Shen Xiling didn't care whether she stayed by his side or not, nor did he care about marriage.

He just wants her to be happy.

That being said.

Looking at Lu Ranran's clear eyes, Shen Xiling couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Do you regret it?" he asked.

Unexpectedly, Lu Ranran answered so readily.

"I don't regret it."

His expression was frank and there was a sincere smile on his lips.

Lu Ranran continued.

"I said before that I'm a pragmatist."

"From the facts and results, the only one who will marry me is you."

"This statement is somewhat evasive."

Shen Xiling put down his chopsticks, changed his previous joking attitude, and looked at her seriously.

Lu Ranran smiled shyly, twisting her fingers as she spoke.

"Maybe we didn't know each other well at that time, so it was hard to talk about many things."

"So what's different now?"

"Now, I think I should say, 'Fortunately' I met you."

If Shen Xiling hadn't happened to appear, everything would have happened naturally.

Rather, it was Lu Ranran's luck that she happened to meet Shen Xiling.

"Thanks to you, I can sit here peacefully."

“You don’t have to worry about plagiarism or whether you’re bringing trouble to your colleagues.”

Shen Xiling chuckled and said jokingly:

"You regard me as your backer?"

Lu Ranran nodded vigorously, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed at being exposed.

"Of course!"

"With such a strong backer, I won't leave easily."

"I will lean on you until the end of time, until the seas run dry and the rocks crumble."

That's the downside to being a screenwriter.

Sometimes I am clearly joking, but I get into the role as I am talking.

The words and tone are exaggerated, like a stage play.

Wait for the atmosphere to cool down gradually.

Lu Ranran suddenly ran into Shen Xiling's eyes.

He was not amused by the exaggerated tone and lines as Lu Ranran expected.

On the contrary.

Those affectionate phoenix eyes widened slightly because of shock.

Indescribable emotions filled his eyes, as if they were about to overflow in the next second.

Lu Ranran thought to herself that this was not good.

After she came to her senses, she regretted her "slip of the tongue".

Shen Xiling might just be worried about their partnership.

And Lu Ranran is so shameless that he wants the "partner" to be his backer for life?

It's offensive just to think about it.

What's more, she said it with confidence.

Lu Ranran really wished she could sew her mouth shut.

In a hurry, Lu Ranran picked up the raw shrimps beside her and put them into the hot pot with seemingly great concentration.

"...These shrimps are quite big. I wonder how long they will take to cook..."

Then, Lu Ranran looked up at Shen Xiling and asked naturally:

"What do you want to eat? Do you want to get off together?"

Shen Xiling looked at Lu Ranran, stunned for a few seconds, then he curled his lips as if he had come to his senses:

"It's okay, just eat these first."

The words fell.

The comedy that just started ended quietly.

But in Shen Xiling's heart, the waves of the sea never stop for a moment.

Especially when that joking phrase "until the end of time" appears.

In an instant, it was like a tsunami hitting the shore. After the huge roar, only silence was left.

And a deafening heartbeat.

The person in front of me didn't seem to know.

The huge waves that her "joke" could cause.

He even began to clumsily change the subject.

Shen Xiling decided to take back his previous thought.

What does it mean that you don’t care about marriage, or whether Lu Ranran is by your side or not.

It's all bullshit!

He is selfish and he will never let Lu Ranran leave.

If you feel guilty.

That will be in the next period of time.

Let him make amends.
