Chapter 73 - Petty man
"Ahem, what makes you think so?" Li Zhuoen felt a little embarrassed but, indeed, her "aunt" hadn't come yet!
"Aren't you wearing a silk scarf because you're afraid of being cold?" Su Yucheng explained, blushing even more as he spoke.
"Haha, uh, this was all discovered by you." Li Zhuoen laughed awkwardly. Compared to letting him know it was because of the hickey, this was still a slightly better reason, let him misunderstand is better. Damn Cen Yuhao, always making her so embarrassed!
This meal seems to be a bit awkward for both of them because of the introduction of this topic.
When they finished eating and came out of the restaurant, Li Zhuoen stood sneakily in the doorway and poked her head out to observe the movement around.
"What are you doing?" Looking at her somewhat comical behavior, Su Yucheng thought it was hilarious to see her like this.
"Haha, nothing!" Li Zhuoen laughed, then strutted out. She observed a circle, Cen Yuhao was not around here! That means she was safe now, haha.
"Have I ever told you that you're really special?" Su Yucheng felt that there was something about her that particularly attracted him, although he couldn't answer exactly what it was, but with her, he would feel very relaxed and would unconsciously forget the bad things.
"I know what you mean. What you are implying is that I am the most unimaginative woman you have ever met, right? Well, I automatically take that as you praising me for being real and not pretentious." Li Zhuoen said stinkily.
"Pfft!" Su Yucheng was amused by her, her ideas were really special enough, "I have to go back to the office in the afternoon, so I won't go up."
"Okay, then I'll go up first, I have to read through a lot of information from today's meeting again, I'm under a lot of pressure!" Li Zhuoen made an exaggerated Tarzan action and then prepared to turn around.
"Li Zhuoen!" He called out her name again.
"What is it?" She looked back at him.
"Are you free tomorrow night?" Su Yucheng asked, looking at her.
"What for? Want to ask me out?" Li Zhuoen was purely joking with him.
"What if it's true, will you say yes?" He looked at her with a pure smile.
"No!" Without thinking, Li Zhuoen replied, "Because our house has a door ban at 9 o'clock at night, if you go back late, you can only sleep on the street!"
"Your family still has such rules?" Hearing her words, Su Yucheng smiled, "It seems you have a very strict parent, is it your father, or your mother?"
"Haha, anyway, you just know it's an extra nasty person." Li Zhuoen started gnashing her teeth when she thought of Cen Yuhao.
"It's okay, I will send you back by nine o'clock, so that's always okay, right?" Su Yucheng thought about it, the end time before nine o'clock was also completely enough.
"Then you have to tell me what you want to ask me out for, you don't really want to go out with me, do you?" Li Zhuoen actually thought that was impossible even for herself.
"Don't worry about it, it's not a date with you, it's something else to ask you for help. I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at 5 p.m. I'll take that as a yes. I have things to do this afternoon." Su Yucheng smiled and waved at her, then turned his head and walked away.
"Hey, when did I agree? I didn't agree, did you hear me?" Li Zhuoen shouted a few times towards Su Yucheng's back, but he walked further and further away as if he didn't hear.
Ah, here comes another guy who talks to himself! The more she spent time with this guy, the more she realized that he had a lot of similarities with Cen Yuhao! Li Zhuoen was about to go frenzy, how could she meet such people?
When she got home, it was time to go to bed again. Li Zhuoen took the pillow and blanket to the sofa and spread them out as usual.
"Li Zhuoen!" Cen Yuhao called out to her.
"What!" She replied in a bad mood, now she felt a headache when she saw this guy. His behavior in the past two days was so unbelievable, she really didn't know if he was consuming bad pills or not.
"Are you working late tomorrow?" He asked. In fact, this question he wanted to ask her since dinner tonight, but just didn't get to ask.
"It depends on our boss, why do you ask?" Li Zhuoen looked at him warily. Why did this guy ask her if she worked overtime for no reason? What's his intention?
"Then you'll be back tomorrow after work at five." Cen Yuhao said again.
"Are you our boss? How do you know I can get off work at five o'clock?" Li Zhuoen gave him a blank look.
"Anyway, tomorrow you will get off work at five o'clock and then just show up downstairs on time, I will ask the driver to go and pick you up." Cen Yuhao didn't want to explain too much to her.
"Huh, you actually sent a driver to pick me up? What's wrong with you?" Li Zhuoen felt that the person in front of her was too strange, was he still Cen Yuhao? How dare he send his driver to pick her up?
"There's an event tomorrow night that you need to go to with me." Only then did Cen Yuhao tell the truth.
Sure enough! She said he had suddenly changed his nature, so there was another reason! Li Zhuoen was not too surprised, because she had no hope for him long ago.
"That, I suddenly forgot, I have other arrangements for tomorrow night." Li Zhuoen said. After all, she promised Su Yucheng that she would help him out first.
"What arrangements can you have?" When Cen Yuhao heard her say that she had something else, his heart was surprisingly a bit lost.
"I'm a busy person too, right? You implied it as if I am an idle person!" Li Zhuoen was very angry with his tone of voice as if she didn't have anything serious to do.
"Then tell me, what are you busy with?" Cen Yuhao crossed his hands in front of his chest.
"I promised to do a favor for a friend." Li Zhuoen said vaguely.
"Push it off!" Without thinking, Cen Yuhao said.
"Hey, can you be reasonable, I promised him first, how can I push it! This is the minimum issue of keeping your word as a friend, right?" For his reaction, Li Zhuoen felt speechless.
"Could it be that any of your friends are more important than me?" Cen Yuhao asked again.
Well, you're not talking nonsense! Li Zhuoen really wanted to answer it like that. (TN: It means he told the truth that her friends are more important than him lol)
"Who told you not to say it earlier!" She admitted that she was still very kind and didn't even say such cruel words out loud. Compared to that big demon Cen Yuhao, she was an angel!
"No matter what, push your friend's matter away!" Cen Yuhao said domineeringly.
"So that's how you treat your friends! No wonder you don't have any friends!" Li Zhuoen was speechless. He didn't even ask her what her friend wanted to help her with, so he just told her to push it off, so he really didn't seem to take his friends seriously!
In the past, when he heard that she was hurting him, he would have hit her back (with words), but this time, strangely enough, he chose to be silent!
Is this guy playing melancholy? But, come on, you're not fit to be a melancholy prince! Li Zhuoen spat in her heart.
"You're really going to help your friend, right?" After a while, he continued to speak.
"Yes!" Li Zhuoen nodded, "Besides, I don't want to go to any event with you, it's going to be boring to death!" After thinking about it, Li Zhuoen still thought it would be more interesting to help Su Yucheng. Although Cen Yuhao didn't tell her what activities to attend but think about it, it must be extremely boring!
"Is your friend male or female?" Cen Yuhao asked again.
"That ...... of course it's female! Our company colleagues, you do not know!" Li Zhuoen answered with a little bit of weakness. God, why did she have a feeling that she was raising a mistress behind his back?
"Then whatever you want!" Cen Yuhao said, reached out his hand, and fumbled to turn off the light before lying down.
"Hey, I haven't even laid down yet, why are you turning off the lights!" Li Zhuoen was speechless. But there was no movement on the other side of the bed.
She really doesn't know what kind of crazy thoughts that guy was harboring again! It is said that a woman's heart is a needle under the sea, and she thinks that Cen Yuhao is much more difficult to guess than a woman! Li Zhuoen was too lazy to guess his mind, after reading the information all afternoon, she was now exhausted. After fumbling to lie down, she went to sleep comfortably.
The next day afternoon.
The time of five o'clock had just arrived when Li Zhuoen's cell phone rang. She looked at it and it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello!" After picking it up, Li Zhuoen politely said to the other party. "Come down quickly, I'm waiting for you downstairs." Su Yucheng sat in the car and looked at the building she was in.
"Su Yucheng?" Li Zhuoen heard his voice, "How did you know my cell phone number?"
"Working together, it shouldn't be hard to know your cell phone number, right?" Su Yucheng smiled, "Hurry up and come down, or you won't be able to make it in time later."
"Okay, then you wait for me for a while." Li Zhuoen put away the line, organized the documents on the table, then took her bag and walked downstairs.
"I'm here!" Seeing Li Zhuoen come out from afar, Su Yucheng waved his hand at her.
Li Zhuoen first gave him a "shhh" gesture, and then looked around like a thief to make sure no one was paying attention to her before she walked over in his direction.
"What were you looking at?" After sitting in the car, Su Yucheng asked her.
"Looking at handsome guys!" Li Zhuoen casually babbled.
"And do I count?" He was curious as to what kind of person he was in her eyes.
"You, huh?" Li Zhuoen pretended to take a serious look, "It's just so-so, not ugly anyway."
"Pfft!" Su Yucheng couldn't hold back another laugh, it seemed like every time he was with her, his expressions would follow much richer, "Thank you for not blowing me off."
"Haha, I'm a good person, I won't do something that cruel, don't worry. By the way, what kind of favor do you want me to do for you? I can first state ah, I must go back before nine o'clock!" Li Zhuoen reminded him again.
"You'll know when you get there." Su Yucheng deliberately sold out. After saying that, he started the engine and the car drove off towards the front.
