C15 Eat

Because it was almost noon, the two of them went downstairs to greet their grandpa. However, they found out from the steward that the old man had left with Uncle Fang early in the morning. As for where, the steward couldn't say for sure.

Xu Ran and Guan Jingyi looked at each other before they smiled. It didn't matter, as long as the old man was happy, they could go anywhere. Besides, with the uncle Fang always by his side, there was no need to worry too much about the old tutor's safety.

"We won't be back for lunch." Shangguan Jingyi told the butler.

Hearing that her grandfather wasn't around, Xu Ran secretly let go of Shangguan Jingyi's hand. Since this was a show, then she shouldn't get too involved in it. Without an audience, the two of them would return to their respective lives.

At that time, he was talking to the steward about some matters of the old man, but in his heart, he was very clear that the little girl had made a clear distinction between them. He looked at the petite figure that had already disappeared, and the corner of his lips curled up slightly, showing a hint of bitterness.

Since it was still early, it was only eleven o'clock. She had already left home at one in the afternoon, so she decided to take her time. There was a bus stop not too far away from where she was.

Xu Ran did not know what to think. She was in a daze, unable to notice the Bentley that was following behind her.

Guan Jingyi was driving the car, his feet moving as he controlled the speed of the car. He didn't know what was going on with him, but for some inexplicable reason, he was patient with the little girl in front of him.

Only when an old lady holding a vegetable basket beside Xu Ran patted her shoulder and kindly reminded her, "Little girl, your boyfriend has been driving behind you all this time. Did you guys start a fight? Young man, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't be in such a hurry."

After hearing what the grandma said, Xu Ran turned her head in confusion. Sure enough, she saw that valiant Bentley following behind her. Through the spotless windshield, she could see Guan Jingyi's unfazed face in front of her.

Xu Ran's heart skipped a beat.

How long had he been following her? Did he feel like he was having a stroke?

Shangguan Jingyi stopped the car and walked in front of Xu Ran. He smiled and said: "Get on the car. Let's go eat."

His relaxed appearance made Xu Ran feel like he was being too petty.

"Why?" Xu Ran asked in confusion. Aren't they just playing on the spot? Since it's just playing on the spot, since their grandpa isn't here, is there a need for the two of them to eat together, or even go to the company together?

Guan Jingyi touched his stomach, a deliberate miserable expression on his face, and said: "Grandpa isn't here, we also have to eat. What, does your Yi brother need a reason to treat you to a meal? "

However, Xu Ran didn't want to go because of what he had just said. She wanted to control her feelings for him. In short, Xu Ran wanted to avoid contact as much as possible.

"Big Brother Yi, I still need to rush to the emergency room to work. I've already gotten my colleagues to help me buy food."

"No matter what you do, do not delay your meal. I'll send you to work later. Don't worry, I won't be late. " Guan Jingyi's tone was firm, but before Xu Ran could express his opinion, a pair of large hands had already pulled up his wrist. Xu Ran half pushed him and half pushed him away, but in the end, he still got into the car.

"What do you like to eat? French or English, or Japanese or Korean, or what we eat, Chinese? " Shangguan Jingyi asked Xu Ran as he pulled on his seat belt and looked at the reflection in the front mirror of the car. Xu Ran was sitting quietly in the back row.

In the end, the two of them went to a Chinese restaurant. Guan Jingyi really liked the Chinese style. One could tell it from the materials and layout of his study.

A pot of green tea. The bamboo shoot in Jiangnan had an exceptionally clear taste. The pineapple prawns were very tasty. There was also Xu Ran's favorite sesame seed ball. Guan Jingyi didn't use his chopsticks. He only watched Xu Ran eat happily, so his gaze was soft and gentle.

"An An, this is the first time I've seen you eating so happily." Guan Jingyi lifted a heavy teapot made of blue and white porcelain, and poured a cup of fragrant tea into Xu Ran's cup with his index finger on the lid of the teapot.

That was true. Ever since they met, they had only eaten together no more than five times. Including the few times they had eaten together, they had all pretended to eat together in front of everyone's eyes.

The two of them continued to eat, and this was the first time something bad had happened.

"Huh?" The sesame seed ball slid off Xu Ran's porcelain spoon and jumped into the thick white soup.

It splashed all over Xu Ran's face.
