I didn't sleep well at night. After lunch, I could hardly see the data. I dozed off for a while while holding my head, and woke up with a headache.I was in a very bad mood, with an indescribable depression, and it seemed that I was in shackles, and it was difficult for me to move.

I really don't want to go out.

I hate fighting uncertain battles. Every time I get kicked out of the market, although the results are good, I am actually extremely repulsed in my heart.Since I'm trying to convince the big boss on Monday, I'd like to be prepared if possible.

I really don't want to go out...

Then the phone vibrated.

The moment I saw the name of the caller, I clearly felt my heart beating.It is still so stable and free, maintaining the original rhythm, but everything seems to be different again, as if not only the blood is rushing in the blood vessels, but also the amplifier of the heartbeat, which is transmitted to the whole body along with the oxygen.

Every cell heard it: it was her.is her.is her.

When I picked up the call, even I was surprised by the hidden smile in my voice: "...Hi."

"Hi." For some reason, Miss Pender's side was also slow, "Are you ready for our first date, Yao?"

"Uh, you, it's good that you arrive on time. I may have to pack up a little longer, and I can't come down early." I turned off the computer, stood up in a hurry and looked around, my coat, which I took out at noon and put it away ——Is the make-up gone?Float or not? ——I went to the bathroom and said, "By the way, may I know what our dinner is today? I want to see if I need to bring powder."

"Well...let me say, it's not the kind of food that makes people sweat profusely." She smiled on the other end of the phone, "The rest will be kept secret for the time being."

"Daily food?"

"Stop. No quiz today." She laughed again. "Don't tell me you don't have makeup on."

"Why, do you have to make up to 'dress up'?"

"I don't think so. But since you're debating whether you need to wear powder..."

I was a little annoyed, but unfortunately I didn't have any stock in my mind. I couldn't talk to her, so I had to change the subject and said, "I'll be downstairs soon."

There is no need to repeat the process of tidying up.Fortunately, there was still plenty of time, so I stood in front of the mirror and hesitated for 10 minutes before running away.Lift your hand and look: 55:[-].

Miss Pender's car seemed to have been parked there for some time.

She hasn't noticed me yet, covering her forehead with one hand, looking down at her phone with a serious expression, maybe she is dealing with some business.My heartbeat suddenly quickened.

Miss Pender wore a white long-sleeved dress today.

She doesn't seem to be as keen on skirts as I am, and she always wears pantsuits on weekdays. Counting, this is the third time I have seen her wear skirts.Every time I feel very different: now I just want to run over to say hello to her, and the two of them hold hands and walk in the lush vegetation.

Her skirt has a strong drape, and when you get closer, you can see the herringbone pattern of jacquard weaving, which is the effect that only good materials can have.How can you pick things like that?I leaned over and saw my smirk reflected on the glass window, but I couldn't stop, and said, "Sorry for keeping you waiting. You look really nice."

Miss Pan De raised her head, first looked at me helplessly, then looked at me for a while, and said, "You are still the same."

"I'm well dressed!" I looked down at myself, frowning slightly, "Really!"

"I mean you are still as good-looking." She laughed, "Are you sure you don't want to compliment me anymore? I have been picking out clothes for two hours today."

So I looked at her carefully again.This dress obviously fit her owner very well. The neckline was undone two or three buttons according to Miss Pender's habit, and the cuffs were rolled up casually at the elbows, as if it belonged to her originally, and she was summer The perfect heroine on the first date.Today she wore a necklace and a bracelet, which didn't seem like a complete set at first, but they matched well, neither too much nor too little.

I couldn't help looking at it for a while, but when I said it, I was still dry: "It looks good."

Miss Pande looked at me a little strangely: "Did you drink Veritaserum today?"

I was startled, she wanted that kind of compliment.Usually, he can say a lot of fancy compliments to anyone with ease, but today I don't know what happened, but he couldn't say a word in front of her.I opened my mouth, but I didn't say a word for a long time. I felt the temperature on my face rising. Instead of showing any displeasure, Miss Pande's eyes deepened, looking at me with tenderness.

I saw stars in her eyes again.After hearing my poor words of praise, is she actually happy?

Weird.

I'm also weird.

Miss Pan De opened the passenger door for me very gentlemanly.After fastening her seat belt, she turned her mobile phone to silent mode in front of me, threw it into the glove box, leaned in front of me, and said with a half-smile, "No work is allowed today."

"it is good."

"Good girl." She held out her hand.I was at a loss and froze in place, but I felt her thumb caressing my cheek, and finally pressed gently on the corner of my lips.

Is it a substitute kiss?

But she didn't say anything, just looked at me and sat back quietly.

It was just the two of us in the car, and it was like a little private space.I hid my hand in a corner and shook it quietly, and said, "Shall we set off?"

"Okay." Miss Pender nodded and started the car.

Because neither of us was wearing a mask, the car windows were put down for safety.She didn't turn on the radio, only the wind whizzed by.I was sitting in the co-pilot, looking at the familiar or unfamiliar road ahead, but I only wanted to look at her on my right.But staring at the driver is easy to be distracting after all, so I resisted the idea and simply looked away, as if I were enjoying the scenery next to me.

But what is there to see next to it?

After all, not as good as her.

"How's your week going?" I finally thought of the topic, and I could look at Miss Pender openly, "I only saw you on Monday, and I couldn't find you on other days. I was still wondering if you were going somewhere else Going to perform the task."

"The other project is about to be delivered, and I have to keep an eye on it." She didn't turn on the navigation, perhaps because she was concentrating on finding the way, so she spoke slowly, "What task are you performing?"

"You know, meeting new girls, buying someone a drink, stuff like that."

"Sounds tempting," she said, casting a quick glance at me with a smile in her eye. "I'm too busy to be involved in the events you mentioned."

"Really?" I looked at her quietly, the corners of my mouth curled up unconsciously.

She suddenly changed the subject: "Well... But it's not that busy."

My heart goes up.Although I knew she might just be trying to tease me - I pursed my lips to hide my emotions.

Miss Pan De said: "At least if you want to talk to me, you can send me a message."

"I thought you'd think it was inappropriate to text too much before the first date."

"But we do have a close connection." She looked at me, then turned back, her hands never leaving the steering wheel, "It's just that the topic may not be that romantic. Speaking of it, it seems that we have not communicated privately this week. Yes Has it been a busy week for you?"

I remained calm, looked towards Ma Lu and said, "It's just that there are some trivial things to deal with on the project."

Miss Pender nodded.

After a moment, she said: "We shouldn't ask about each other's situation."

"you're right."

Miss Pande's fingers tapped twice on the steering wheel: "Take a note. Add it to our dating rules: small talk about working hours and direction is not welcome."

I couldn't help laughing: "It sounds like our dating relationship is very tense, there are always such and such rules."

"Really?" She slowly parked the car to the side of the road, turned to look at me and said, "Why do I think this is so sexy?"

I don't even know how to put my hands down.She is obviously getting bolder and making rapid progress, and she will not be easily pushed back by my eyes.I dare not look at her for too long.

Watching her for too long can easily catch fire.

I looked away first, lowered my head and fumbled for the buckle of the seat belt, and said, "Have we arrived yet?"

"Oh, no, no, not yet." Miss Pender's eyes suddenly dodged slightly, and she reached out to light up the car screen, "Don't laugh, but I can't find my way."

"Everyone uses navigation, it's okay." I didn't know why, and comforted her.

She bit her lip, her fingers were hanging on the input field of the destination, and she hesitated to press down: "It's not like that. I checked it last night..."

My breath stopped.

What did Miss Pender say?

If I heard correctly, she was just saying, did she take the time to do a field trip in advance for this date?

The car was very quiet, and Miss Pender's face flushed a little.Apparently she also realized what she had said.I quietly took a deep breath, but I still felt that there was not enough oxygen, and my pulse became faster almost immediately.Will she hear it?I held myself on one elbow and pulled my arms in, pretending that would bring it back to normal.

My heart was beating too fast.She just sat next to me and didn't even look at me; I didn't look at her either, but why?

Miss Pender sighed softly, and seemed to have finally made up her mind.I heard her whisper helplessly: "Okay. The answer will be revealed in advance - don't watch it."

I just leaned over to peek at the navigation and was forced to retract my head, saying pitifully: "I thought you said you were going to reveal it in advance?"

"It's not allowed to look anyway." She bit her lip.

I pursed my lips, and I didn’t look at it, because the navigation later needs to announce the destination by voice, I can’t see it with my eyes, can’t I listen to it with my ears?But looking at her stubborn appearance, she was really cute. I couldn't hold it back. I reached out to touch her face, and finally pressed it back.

The destination of the navigation is the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
