Chapter [-]

"If you're free, why don't you go have a meal together after the movie is over?"

"Respect is worse than obedience."

When Lu Ran came back to his senses, Xiang Yan had already made a meal appointment with Wu Qi.

Turning his head slightly, Lu Ran looked at Xiang Yan expressionlessly: "You just made the decision for me?"

Xiang Yan shrugged and smiled: "What does it matter if we have a meal together, let's watch a movie."

The other party's scoundrel and good-tempered appearance made Lu Ran unable to vent his anger, and felt depressed, so he had to go back to watch the movie again.

Naturally, I can't watch the movie even more, but maybe it's because I guess the two of them in front of me are no longer so annoying after looking at them behind.

The movie is over.

Even though he was not willing, Lu Ran went with them to a hotel not far from the cinema.

Lu Ran doesn't like to eat hotels from the bottom of his heart. During the years of socializing with Han Moyan, he has been to countless hotels. The dishes are the same, and the service attitude is quite satisfactory. As soon as he walks in, his professional habits start to break out, and the feeling of restraint spreads. come up.

"Don't want to go?" Xiang Yan asked softly.

Lu Ran wanted to nod, but finally shook his head.

Sit down, ladies order.

Lu Ran just glanced at it, ordered two dishes and handed them to the waiter.

On the opposite side, Wu Qi was holding the menu, and while carefully flipping through it with her little finger, she pointed to the dishes on it and sipped her delicate lip gloss to inquire.

Looking at the three people present, Lu Ran couldn't arouse the slightest desire to speak.

She really didn't expect to meet Han Moyan. If she had known, she would never have gone out.

The only one who looked relaxed among the three was Xiang Yan.

He smiled and played with the white teacup in his hand, and greeted Han Moyan very politely.

The problems at the dinner table are nothing more than what you are busy with recently, how you work, how you work, how you invest in the stock market, and how you invest.

Han Moyan answered concisely, neither too cold nor too enthusiastic.

The two people exchanged back and forth, making the scene not so cold at last.

Wu Qi also seemed to want to talk to Lu Ran.

"Miss Lu, what are you doing now?"

"I didn't do anything, I just squatted at home."

Although it was the truth, it made Wu Qi choke, not knowing how to continue.

Knowing that Wu Qi was only Han Moyan's girlfriend in name, Lu Ran didn't mean to embarrass him, and was just about to change the topic.

Suddenly, Han Moyan said, "Have you not considered it yet?"

Lu Ran paused for a moment before he understood what Han Moyan meant.

At the engagement banquet last time, Han Moyan said, "I will reserve your position for a week."

Counting the time, today is exactly one week.

She never thought of going back at all, especially after seeing Xue Lijia.

She had to admit that she didn't like Xue Lijia, not at all.

So, she almost blurted out: "Mr. Han, don't you already have a new assistant, why are you here to ask me?"

Han Moyan didn't seem to notice the gunpowder in her tone, and said calmly as if she was just narrating: "You mean Assistant Xue? Her work ability is indeed not as good as yours. If you come back, she can be your assistant."

Lu Ran didn't expect Han Moyan to say that.

Xue Li's Canon air conditioner came to work under Han Moyan, there must be a backstage operation, these Lu Ran knows without thinking, the ability and qualifications are definitely much better than Xue Lijia, Han Moyan agreed to Xue Lijia's stay, which is acquiescing to this kind of black box operation , and now... She didn't expect Han Moyan to let Xue Lijia down so easily for the sake of her having no background.

Reminiscent of his attitude towards Han Moyan after he resigned, Lu Ran suddenly felt that the confrontation before was actually very boring.

She complained about Han Moyan, but Han Moyan didn't have to fall in love with her.

As a boss, Han Moyan treated her very well.

She smiled at Han Moyan, trying to dilute the vague smell of gunpowder just now: "It's better not to talk about this when eating."

"it is good."

Four people couldn't eat much, but apart from the two dishes Lu Ran ordered, there were another six or seven dishes on the table.

Lu Ran glanced at it, the price was expensive.

She couldn't help but want to laugh again. Han Moyan is indeed rich, or very rich, but sometimes money and waste are not equated. Han Moyan's life will not treat himself badly, but he will not spend an extra day Penny, standard businessman habit.

Sure enough, seeing the table full of dishes, Han Moyan looked at Wu Qi without any trace.

Wu Qi grabbed Han Moyan's arm, shook it slightly, and smiled sweetly: "You won't blame me for ordering too much, these are all things I like to eat."

"It's okay." Han Moyan replied flatly.

Hearing this, Wu Qi smiled sweetly at Han Moyan again, and then gave Lu Ran a meaningful look.

Lu Ran lowered his head and chuckled, but he didn't laugh out loud.

There's nothing left to argue about.

After the slight clash of chopsticks, Lu Ran lowered his head and ate food in silence.

The two dishes she ordered were mainly light. Wu Qi's taste may be a bit heavy, and several dishes were heavy in oil, heavy in meat and spicy.

Lu Ran can't eat spicy food. After eating a little, he couldn't help drinking tea. After a while, the tea water bottomed out.

Inhale lightly, trying to take away the spiciness.

Suddenly someone said in her ear: "If you can't eat spicy food, don't eat it." Maybe there was concern, but it was covered in a cold voice.

Lu Ran took another breath before replying, "It's okay..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiang Yan interrupted: "Xiaoran, you can't eat spicy food? When we went to eat hot pot last time, I saw that you were very happy, so I didn't notice it. Sorry..."

As he said that, Xiang Yan raised his hand to ask the waiter to add tea, but Wu Qi, who was discovered first, stopped him: "Mr. Xiang, ordering tea is worse than ordering wine to soothe the heat."

Before Xiang Yan could speak, Wu Qi suddenly realized again: "By the way, Ms. Lu used to be an assistant, so she should be good at drinking bars. I'm really sorry. I forgot to order wine just now." After speaking, she turned and called the waiter Go up and get some bottles of red wine.

She moved so fast that no one else had time to react.

Xiang Yan looked at Lu Ran, who shook his head lightly and said nothing.

Lu Ran could drink, but it was for entertainment. When the wine was served, Lu Ran only poured half a cup and held down the rim of the cup to keep from pouring.

The red wine was poured into Han Moyan's glass, and the glass was full.

It suddenly dawned on Lu Ran that it wasn't her that Wu Qi wanted to target, but... Han Moyan.

Han Moyan's drinking capacity... She actually didn't know.

There are not many people who are qualified to let Han Moyan drink. He is not greedy for drinking, and he can drink when others toast, but he will not pretend to be proud and drink it up. Have you ever been drunk?

Thinking of this, Lu Ran felt a little helpless when he thought of Han Moyan again.

Breaking habits... when will I quit.

The spicy taste was so strong that before he knew it, Lu Ran had already drunk a few glasses of wine.

She was still sane, but her cheeks blushed unconsciously.

It was only then that she realized that she hadn't drank so much alcohol for a long time, and it was probably because she suddenly touched alcohol again, so she was a little embarrassed.

He couldn't help but look at Han Moyan. He had been drunk a lot by Wu Qi. Although he wasn't drunk, his eyes were softened a little by the alcohol, as if there was mist wrapped around them.

Lu Ran only took one look, then looked away.

Just looking at her like that made her a bit more drunk.

Finally, after eating, Lu Ran felt relieved for some reason. Staying with Han Moyan was an invisible pressure for her.

It's just that there was something wrong with the checkout process that I didn't expect.

It was probably because there were two men present, and the scrambling for the order was extremely fierce. Han Moyan planned to sign the order, but Xiang Yan insisted on asking him to pay the bill.

Although the two were still smiling coldly and the other, neither of them had the slightest intention of giving in.

Arguing about this kind of thing is really...

In the end, each took a step back, each paid half, and then sent their female companions home.

*******************************************************************************
Sitting in Xiang Yan's car, Lu Ran's head was slightly dizzy, he pulled down the window and let the wind blow on his face.

The breeze and the slight drunkenness from alcohol made Lu Ran feel more relaxed, and he spoke more casually, "You were so naive just now."

"What are you talking about... the one who grabs the order? A man can grab it, not to mention the target is him. It would be too bad for your image to eat white rice in front of you, even though it didn't work out in the end..."

Listening to Xiang Yanxu's rambling explanation, Lu Ran raised her lips and said, "Thank you for tonight."

"Thank you for what?" Xiang Yan smiled, "I should say thank you, beautiful lady, thank you for accepting my date invitation. I don't know, does this generation mean that we can get to know each other better?"

This posture of climbing along the pole has the taste of a lawyer.

Lu Ran held her chin and smiled: "I have no such plan."

"But..." He looked at Lu Ran, smiled slightly, and put on a serious expression, "But, didn't you just acquiesce that I am your boyfriend, and you are not afraid of being exposed?"

"I do not care."

"Okay, you won..." Xiang Yan put on a frustrated tone.

Lu Ran couldn't help laughing: "Accept."

"No way, the bunker is too difficult to break through. It seems that I have to go back to the starting point and start all over again."

That's what he said, but Xiang Yan still had a smile on his face.

The atmosphere with Xiang Yan is always very harmonious, like old friends who have known each other for a long time, able to crack jokes, and Lu Ran seldom cares when speaking.

But... That shouldn't be the feeling of being with a lover, there won't be a rapid heartbeat, and there won't be that dangerous temptation, that kind of atmosphere that can affect her whole world and emotions.

Xiang Yan, I can't give it to her.
