Then, fearing that Su An would think too much, he hurriedly explained, "But..."
Before he finished speaking, the next second...
My left hand was suddenly wrapped gently by a soft hand.
The soft fingertips quietly slipped into the gaps between his fingers and interlocked with his.
Lu Ziting's unfinished words were stuck in his mouth, and he was stunned for a moment.
Then he lowered his head subconsciously, looked at the hand that was tightly intertwined with his own, and then... blinked blankly.
He... wasn't dreaming, was he?
An An actually took the initiative to hold his hand?
And still... intertwining your fingers?
The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.
Su An couldn't help but feel a little nervous because of his behavior, but seeing Lu Ziting's rare dull expression, he suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
"cough……"
She coughed lightly and couldn't help but feel a little hot on her face, but she still said in a low voice, "Will this... help alleviate the feeling of jealousy?"
Hearing her words, Lu Ziting finally came back to his senses.
"certainly."
He immediately held Su An's hand and spoke two short words, the ending of which almost made him fly with joy.
"Then...just keep walking."
The temperature on Su An's face was getting higher and higher, but she didn't want to be discovered by Lu Ziting, so she hurriedly pulled him forward and continued walking.
The two people suddenly became quiet.
No one said anything, they just held hands and continued walking forward.
Su An stared at her feet intently, her own rumbling heartbeat filling her ears.
What's going on...
Just holding hands...
She has been married once!
Why do you feel so nervous?
The quieter it is, the more confused Su An's brain becomes.
He couldn't help but glance at Lu Ziting who was standing aside.
Then I saw that the base of his ears seemed to be slightly red, and I was a little surprised.
Senior, he... is also embarrassed?
This discovery inexplicably made Su An feel even more shy.
The two adults, like innocent high school students, remained silent until they reached the end of the path and arrived at a wide lake.
finally--
"An'an."
Lu Ziting finally called Su An.
Then he held the hands that were holding each other tighter, smiled softly and said, "I'm very happy."
Just four words, Su An's tip trembled suddenly.
I don’t know why, but when she heard her senior say she was happy, she seemed to feel a little happy too?
Could it be...does she really like the senior?
A trace of confusion flashed in Su An's eyes, and she couldn't figure out what she was feeling in her heart.
But one thing is certain.
She doesn't hate her senior.
You may even feel nervous and shy because of his words.
Now that they have already taken the initiative to hold hands.
Then...should she give more feedback to the seniors?
Su An thought, took a deep breath, and whispered back, "I'm very happy too."
"Um?"
Lu Ziting didn't seem to expect her to answer, and he looked a little surprised.
Then I heard Su An continue, "When I'm with my senior, I'm very happy and feel at ease. It's a feeling I've never felt before..."
Su An said seriously.
She tried hard to convey to Lu Ziting how "only" and "unique" he was to her.
Lu Ziting's expression gradually became more and more surprised as Su An spoke.
The next second——
He couldn't help but hug the person in front of him.
"Senior, I..."
Su An was shocked for a moment. He didn't expect his reaction to be so big.
Then he realized that he had been let go.
"An'an."
The gentle light in Lu Ziting's eyes almost melted away, and he spoke softly with a sense of comfort.
"Don't be nervous. I know you're not ready yet. I just want to thank you for being willing to give me...such feedback to let me know that you can feel my feelings."
As he spoke, his fingertips couldn't help but slowly rub the back of Su An's hand, saying solemnly as if he was making some promise.
"It doesn't matter. We can take it slow. There will be a long time in the future. No matter when, I will wait for you."
"Senior..."
Su An's tip trembled violently, and at this moment, only emotion and heartbeat were left.
Such a long-lasting love may be God's compensation for her.
She seemed to be able to imagine how happy it was to live with her senior.
but……
Take your time.
They still have a lot of time.
A week later——
The cooperation between Chen Rui and Gu finally came to an end.
All contracts have been drawn up and all equipment has been implemented.
The next step is to put it into production and there will be no other problems.
Afternoon——
Everyone finished the work at hand early and planned to take a rest while fishing.
Then he saw Gu Jingchen and Chen Rui walking in from the outside together.
"Well...everyone listen to me!"
Chen Rui's loud voice echoed throughout the office, and everyone immediately looked over.
Then I heard him continue to speak loudly.
"All our projects have been implemented today, and everyone has worked hard during this period. To show off, Mr. Gu and I acted as hosts and found a particularly luxurious hotel!"
"We will have a celebration banquet in the evening! All members of the project team must be present! No leave is allowed! But you can each invite friends and family members to have fun together! But only one person is allowed!"
"Wow~ Chen Rui and Mr. Gu are so generous! Then I'll make a call now!"
Qin Rou was the first to respond. As she spoke, she quickly picked up her phone.
Su An also thought of Lu Ziting immediately.
I wonder if senior, he is free to attend the celebration banquet today?
But Gu Jingchen will be there after all...
Will he come willingly?
Or will he definitely come as long as he hears that Gu Jingchen is there?
Su An had almost figured out the reason why Lu Ziting might be "jealous", but she couldn't help but laugh a little while thinking about it.
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly saw the screen of her phone light up.
It happened to be the message from Lu Ziting.
She hurriedly opened it, glanced at it, walked out with her phone, and dialed Lu Ziting's number.
The call was quickly answered.
Lu Ziting's puzzled voice also came over.
"Why did you call me? You have something to do tonight and can't meet you?"
There was some regret in his tone.
The two of them have been going out for walks together almost every night recently, and holding hands has become more and more natural.
But no one mentioned the previous confession.
After all, the most beautiful time of love is the ambiguous period.
Su An wanted to understand her own feelings bit by bit.
Lu Ziting did not rush and waited willingly.
It's just that there is one missing opportunity to meet...it always makes people feel pity.
Just as Lu Ziting was thinking about it, he heard Su An say.
"It is indeed a temporary matter. Our project has come to an end. The boss said that there will be a celebration banquet tonight. No one is allowed to be absent..."
Su An deliberately lengthened her voice.
Then, as expected, I heard Lu Ziting say with some disappointment, "That's it..."
Su An couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this.
I couldn't bear to "lie" him for too long, so I hurriedly added, "But... our boss said you can bring friends with you, so senior, do you want to come?"
"Together?"
Lu Ziting was a little surprised, and then agreed without waiting for Su An's answer, "Of course, where is the address? What time do you start?"
Hearing his voice, Su An instantly became energetic. Su An couldn't help but smile even more happily and hurriedly replied, "I'll send it to you after the address and time are confirmed. Then you can go directly there then?"
"good."
Lu Ziting agreed happily.
After chatting for a few more words, the two made an appointment and then hung up the phone.
evening--
Chen Rui got everyone off work an hour early, and a group of people headed straight to a famous high-end club in the city.
Half an hour later——
Several cars stopped outside the club door.
Qin Rou opened her mouth in shock as soon as she got out of the car, leaned next to Su An and bit her ear.
"An'an, Mr. Gu is too generous! I heard that the chefs here are all specially hired from abroad, and the cheapest dish costs three digits! I'm in for a treat today!"
"Really? Then you should eat more!"
Su An was amused by her reaction, and the two of them entered the door holding hands while talking.
Not long after, several wives of married employees also arrived.
Everyone seemed to know each other, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
Qin Rou did not invite anyone and stayed with Su An from beginning to end.
"Everyone is here, let's start ordering!"
Chen Rui held the menu and was obviously excited before he even drank.
As soon as the words fell——
Someone from the side immediately answered, "There's still one less person. Didn't Su An call that handsome guy from last time?"
"he……"
Su An was startled and speechless for a moment.
Now that I have said it, it seems that I can no longer admit it.
But……
Seeing the people around her looking at her with gossip, Su An had no choice but to stand up and speak quickly, "I'm going to make a phone call."
As she said this, she took her cell phone and walked out the door without looking back.
Behind him, a group of people couldn't help but start cheering.
Only Gu Jingchen remained silent from beginning to end, his eyes so cold that they were about to freeze.
An An called Lu Ziting to come?
Is he that important?
Even the company's celebration banquet calls for him?
The vinegar bottle that had never been lifted up in my heart instantly soaked my whole heart.
Gu Jingchen hesitated for two seconds, couldn't help but get up and wanted to chase him out.
But before he can take action——
"Mr. Gu, thank you for coming here today! Come on! You order first!"
Chen Rui directly placed the menu in front of Gu Jingchen.
The rest of the people also started to persuade, "Yes! Mr. Gu, order first!"
Gu Jingchen's eyes flickered for a moment. He didn't want to affect others, so he could only suppress his emotions quickly and quickly browsed through the menu.
But suddenly I heard my cell phone ringing.
He picked it up casually, glanced at it, and hung up without hesitation.
It's Ye Kexin again...
He was in no mood to deal with her phone calls now.
In the corridor——
Su An had already found a quiet place and dialed Lu Ziting's number.
After a few simple words, Su An learned that he was stuck on the road. Su An quickly comforted him and told him to be careful on the road before hanging up the phone.
