Xu Anran was extremely embarrassed.
Guan Jingyi chuckled, then took a tissue to wipe the soup off her face.
"Jing Yi, I didn't think it would really be you. What a coincidence." A woman walked over from not too far away. She was wearing a black cashmere coat that reached to her ankles, and her temperament was extraordinary. The hair fell down to her shoulders, and her face was painted with a faint makeup that was exquisite yet very gentle, and the cashmere coat fit her body perfectly, sketching out the most beautiful curves of a woman, giving her an extraordinary temperament, and she was even more elegant and beautiful than her sister.
Guan Jingyi raised his eyebrow, he was also surprised to see the person who just arrived, and laughed: "Wen Ya, long time no see."
When Xu Anran saw Guan Jingyi's smile, she was not smiling like she usually was, but instead, straight into her eyes.
"After leaving London, I didn't expect to see you again after more than ten years. Today is my first day back home, and I've already met you. Can I interpret that as fate?"
That refined woman, with every movement, every expression, and smile, revealed indifference and calmness. That kind of temperament, was very similar to Guan Jingyi's.
"Of course."
"This is?" Her gentle gaze landed on Xu Anran who was silently eating the sesame seed.
Guan Jingyi looked at Xu Anran, and introduced him to Wen Ya: "An An."
Seeing that Xu Anran still had not raised his head, he reckoned that she was in a trance again. Guan Jingyi then called out to her, "An An, this is Wen Ya." It made Xu Anran feel like the adults in her family had him greet their elders who came to visit her house.
Xu Anran raised her head, the woman's exquisite face was reflected in her eyes, and she smiled and nodded towards Wen Ya.
Just like that, the two of them had a good meal and became three people. Guan Jingyi and Wen Ya talked about the skies of London, the times of Cambridge University, and the professors of Economics. Xu Anran couldn't interrupt them at all, but of course, she didn't want to interrupt.
This sort of atmosphere was extremely depressing to her, but it was the complete opposite of their liveliness.
Xu Anran really wanted to leave, but with Guan Jingyi's personality, he would not rest until she sent his to work.
"Brother Yi, I want to go to the washroom." Xu Anran looked at Guan Jingyi who was about to stand up, but then the woman beside him put her hand on Xu Anran's arm.
Receiving Guan Jingyi's nod, Wen Ya smiled and said to Xu Anran: "Do you mind if I go with you?"
It was not easy to refuse, although she was not very willing, but Xu Anran still nodded.
"You like Guan Jingyi?" When Wen Ya asked her this question, Xu Anran was surprised.
"You … "What do you mean?" After all, she was too young, and the twenty-two year old Xu Anran, in front of the elegance which she had enjoyed for no less than twelve years in this world when she was almost thirty, was simply too young. So young that even under the circumstances where Guan Jingyi was no longer around, Xu Anran actually developed a fear for this woman, who looked elegant and beautiful on the surface.
Wen Ya washed her hands and took out a piece of paper. While wiping her hands, she said, "It means literally. "Because there's hostility in your eyes when you look at me."
"…"
"As for me, I really like the hostility in your eyes, because that would let me know even more clearly that Guan Jingyi treats me and others differently. Even if it's just a little bit different, I think, I'll beat that so-called sister of yours down. "
When she just came out of the bathroom, she turned around and walked a few steps. Although she was still quite a distance away from the dining hall, Xu Anran saw Guan Jingyi.
Guan Jingyi did not forget that he still had to work at one o'clock. Before Xu Anran wanted to go to the washroom, she had already planned to leave, but why was it that Nai Wen Ya was too passionate? Moreover, in those years when she was overseas, Wen Ya had indeed helped Guan Jingyi a lot, so it would not be good for Guan Jingyi to give her face.
Seeing two people walk out hand in hand, Guan Jingyi walked up to them and said with a frown, "What took you so long?" The words were said to Xu Anran.
Xu Anran pursed her lips and lowered her head.
"Aren't you going to work?" Guan Jingyi added another sentence as he reached out his hand, pulling Xu Anran's arm out, and holding her wrist in his hand.
Xu Anran raised her head and looked at him. He then said: "Didn't you just say that you were afraid of being late? Although it was a reprimand, when it came from Guan Jingyi's mouth, it had a bit of a pampering taste.
"No …" Xu Anran weakly wanted to deny it.
"Alright, let's go." Guan Jingyi sighed, and then nodded at Wen Ya.
