Chapter 421

Hearing Mu Shaoling's angry voice, Ruan Bai couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Too bad, I was only busy with work, and ignored his instructions directly. I can't put too much pressure on myself, and it is even more forbidden to stay in the company to work overtime after work.

Ruan Bai's voice was clearly transmitted to the other end through the mobile phone: "I'll be fine in a while..."

Mu Shaoling was silent for a moment, then his voice suddenly rose several times: "I remember that the tasks I asked Xu Lei to assign to you were all relatively easy. Did she increase the amount of tasks for you on her own initiative?"

"No……"

Ruan Bai said embarrassingly: "The other colleagues are all busy, and I'm the only one doing such a leisurely job. It's not good. What's more, this urban reform project is so important, I can't take it lightly..."

She was looking at the thick stacks of documents, with her left hand holding on to her mobile phone to make a call, while her right hand was unconsciously moving the mouse, continuing to draw unfinished pictures.

"If I hadn't called you, how long would you plan to work overtime?" Mu Shaoling asked coldly.

"Uh... I'll work an extra half an hour, and it's almost there." Ruan Bai looked at the time at the bottom of the computer screen, and said softly, "When I'm working, the time passes quickly."

These days, every time Ruan Bai goes home, the driver Xiao Liu comes to pick him up, because Mu Shaoling is a workaholic, and he usually works overtime until late. Occasionally when he was not working overtime, Ruan Bai would take Mu Shaoling's car back home.

Mu Shaoling sighed lightly: "What should I do with you?".

Then, the man hung up the phone without warning.

Ruan Bai was taken aback when she heard his faint sigh, but then she shook her head, not letting herself think so much.

Looking at all kinds of complicated materials on the desk and the unfinished work on the computer, Ruan Bai suddenly felt dizzy.

Turn on the spray, spray on his cheeks a few times, Ruan Bai rubbed his little face to keep himself awake, and started drawing again.

In the huge office, there is only the click of the mouse, which becomes an embellishment in the quiet air.

When Ruan Bai was working without distraction, she was very focused. In a blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and her design drawing was nearing completion.

She wanted to insist on finishing the painting before going to the president's office to find Mu Shaoling, but thinking of that man's stubborn temper, if she didn't leave the office after nine o'clock, he would definitely be angry.

Ruan Bai had no choice but to save the unfinished drawings on the computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, and began to tidy up the materials on the desk, preparing to take the work home to complete.

While she was busy, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind her.

Ruan Bai froze.

The huge office was empty at the moment, only she was alone.

She instantly thought of a supernatural video that she accidentally clicked on yesterday: The Office Horror.

Suddenly, Ruan Bai felt bad all over, she casually grabbed a pen holder on the desk, and ruthlessly threw it towards the source of the sound!

"Do you want to murder your husband?" The man's deep voice came, and Ruan Bai, who was in a state of shock, was wrapped into a strong and warm male body.

Ruan Bai looked up in astonishment, seeing Mu Shaoling hugging her with her left arm and holding the pen holder she had just thrown in with her right hand, she immediately felt very embarrassed.

"Sorry, I thought someone broke into the office, I don't know it was you..." Ruan Bai hurriedly snatched the pen holder from his hand and put it on the desk, his small face became pale because of embarrassing things Somewhat reddish.

"Let's go, today is the Lantern Festival, I'll take you somewhere." Mu Shaoling didn't blame her too much, his eyes were full of love for her.

Under the bright office lights, the man's handsome side face was stained with soft colors by the halo, making his deep outline more three-dimensional and charming.

Ruan Bai nodded obediently, she quickly sorted out the materials and put them in her handbag.

Then, like a cute little girl, she grinned at him: "Okay."

Mu Shaoling rubbed her head and led her away from the company.

The two drove to an ancient town near City A.

Inside the BMW car, Mu Shaoling turned on the light music, it was an elegant and melodious zither, Ruan Bai's favorite style.

After an hour's drive, amidst the sound of intoxicating music and the occasional warm chat between the two, they arrived soon.

Because it was the Lantern Festival, the ancient town was overcrowded.

It stands to reason that they should not even be able to find a parking space, but before coming, Mu Shaoling had already contacted a friend who owned a high-end hotel here.

He drove the car directly to the hotel parking lot, where there was a parking space reserved by a friend.

After everything was settled, Mu Shaoling took Ruan Bai's hand and strolled leisurely on the stone road in the town.

Longhuang Ancient Town is a well-known ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River. It has a history of thousands of years. It was once rated as "Top Ten Charming Ancient Towns in China". Its night view is particularly beautiful.

Tonight is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and every household in the town is hung with bright red lanterns. Tourists walk under the lanterns, reflecting the beaming faces, and there is a novelty of suddenly traveling to ancient times.

Ruan Bai took Mu Shaoling's arm, and exclaimed as he walked: "The town here is very different from the town in my hometown. Ours is similar to the ancient town of Pingyao, and the Chinese-style window couplets are made of ebony wood. , the eaves are made of tiles, it has the grandeur of Shanxi merchants' courtyards, but also has the aura of courtyards; and the small town here is a land of fish and rice, a home of silk, full of poetry and picturesque everywhere, everywhere you look, you will feel it in your heart A piece of soft..."

Mu Shaoling wrapped Ruan Bai's coat tightly, and said in a gentle voice, "As long as you like it."

He knew that although Ruan Bai was born in a small town in the north, she did not have the boldness and informality of northern women, but instead had the gentleness and beauty of Jiangnan women.

He thought that she would definitely like the night scene of Xiuyu, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. So, he took time out of his busy schedule to bring her here.

Even in order to bring her over to enjoy the scenery, for the first time in his life, Mu Shaoling did not go back to Mu's old house to have dinner with his grandfather on the Lantern Festival.

They are as well-matched as golden boys and jade girls, and they are still dazzling even if they walk in the crowd side by side.

Mu Shaoling and Ruan Bai were admiring the scenery and lanterns, but many tourists were secretly admiring them.

The red lanterns hang high, and you can't see the end at a glance. The blushing light shines on Ruan Bai's fair little face, coupled with her smug smile, making her even more gentle and charming. Mu Shaoling's already soft heart became even more tender.

In fact, he used to have no awareness of festivals at all, but after getting to know Ruan Bai, he began to attach importance to various festivals like a normal person.
