Qi Yun drove away Xu Anran and left, leaving only Xu Anning and Qin Xiaokun, who was trying to comfort her.
The car stopped at the entrance of the villa. Xu Anran got out of the car and turned to Qi Yun. “Mr. Qi, thank you for sending me back. Come in for a meal before you leave.”
Qi Yun shook his head. “It’s no trouble. I still have something to do. I have to leave first.”
“see.” Xu Anran felt a little regretful, but she still nodded. “Take care, Mr. Qi.”
She watched Qi Yun leave, but she did not see Jiang Rongyan standing on the second floor. His gaze was fixed on her.
What a coincidence. When he returned to the second floor to look at the scenery, he could see Xu Anran getting out of another man’s car. Jiang Rongyan’s mood could only be described as sour. He was about to explode from anger. He tuned around, returned to his room, and closed the door with a bang.
However, Xu Anran, who was standing at the door, did not hear the commotion. She was feeling smug because she had just completed a big project.
When it was time for dinner, Xu Anran originally wanted to order takeout and eat in her room like before, but at that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Anran had been locked in her room for the past few days to work on her design drafts. She had basically never left her room. Who knew that she would bring a man back when she went out? Jiang Rongyan knew that no matter how magnanimous he was, he could not tolerate Xu Anran anymore.
Xu Anran opened the door and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Aren’t you going to eat?” Jiang Rongyan asked.
Xu Anran realized that it was already time to eat. She was so busy that she forgot about it, so she said, “Okay, I’l order takeout.”
Jiang Rongyan took his phone. “I asked my assistant to come over and cook. Come out and eat.”
“Really?” Xu Anran had already thought about what she wanted to eat, but when she heard that his assistant was coming over, she immediately perked up. There was nothing she could do. Who asked Jiang Rongyan’s assistant to cook so well? Seeing Xu Anran walk to the dining table in surprise, Jiang
Rongyan smiled behind her back.
During the meal, Xu Anran thought of Qin Xiaokun and Xu Anning’s wedding, so she tactfully reminded Jiang Rongyan, “Have you been attending any ceremonies recently? Are you lacking a female companion?”
Jiang Rongyan shook her head. “No, I’m not lacking a female companion either.”
Xu Anran put down his chopsticks and stared at him. She smiled and said, “Then can you accompany me to my grandmother’s 80th birthday banquet?”
Jiang Rongyan raised his eyebrows slightly. “I won’t go. This kind of banquet is too low-class. It doesn’t fit my status.”
Although she was prepared to be rejected, she still felt a little hurt when she heard it from Jiang Rongyan. She walked pitifully to Jiang Rongyan’s side. She hooked her arm around his neck from behind. “Just go with me, okay? You’re my husband. If you can’t go, I really don’t know who should go with me.”
Xu Anran had also learned how to rub his ears. Her breath hit Jiang Rongyan’s ears, making him feel a numbing sensation spread throughout his body.
Jiang Rongyan quickly reached out and touched Xu Anran’s head. “Come down! I… I promise you.”
“You’re so nice.” Xu Anran let go of him. Because she was too excited, she didn’t notice that his ears were so red that they were about to bleed.
After the meal, Xu Anran volunteered and stood up to clean the dishes. Actually, she didn’t need to wash them. She just needed to put them into the dishwasher. However, Jiang Rongyan had promised her to go to the birthday banquet, so she should be more attentive. As long as Jiang Rongyan went to the
birthday banquet, she would be able to slap Xu Anning and Qin Xiaokun’s faces. She could already imagine their angry expressions.
Xu Anran didn’t notice that the red carpet beneath her fect had rolled up. She tripped on it and fell backward. Jiang Rongyan was quick-witted. He quickly reached out and grabbed her slender waist. Then, he pulled Xu Anran into his embrace.
Xu Anran looked up in shock, but just met Jiang Rongyan’s gaze…
