Hyatt International Hotel, Marketing Director, Shen Lexuan's office.
"...So, you didn't go to buy me a ring, but went to drink with others!" Looking at the drunk Luo Chen standing in front of her, Shen Lexuan really wanted to slap Luo Chen. Go outside the window.
"Luo Chen! Do you understand how many people want to chase me?! To tell you the truth, I don't know how many people in the hotel alone regard me as the lover of their dreams! I made it so clear, it's just a matter of being direct. Let me tell you, if you buy me a ring, I will agree to marry you! I am also an executive of a five-star hotel, and I have already taken the initiative, what else do you want from me?!"
"Do I have to take the initiative to propose to you before you can understand my feelings?!"
Shen Lexuan, who had a pretty face with a pale face, put her tender jade fingers directly on Luo Chen's heart, and poked her hard twice, "It's okay if you don't buy me a ring, but you actually went out to drink with others during work hours! Luo Chen Chen, Luo Chen, after you were promoted to deputy director, you have become bolder! Since you like drinking so much, this director will help you and come home with me tonight. There is a lot of wine in my house. If you do it tonight If you don’t want me to be happy with you, I will go to Mr. Mu tomorrow and remove you as the deputy supervisor! If you can no longer be the deputy supervisor, I will see how you will skip work to drink with others during working hours in the future."
After threatening him, Shen Lexuan saw Luo Chen's dull expression and seemed unmoved. She subconsciously thought that Luo Chen was drunk. She gave Luo Chen a slightly helpless look and placed her hands on her hips in an angry tone, "I want to It’s not because of your drinking that I won’t let you go so easily. Just lie down on the sofa and I’ll get you some hangover soup.”
After saying that, Shen Lexuan turned around and wanted to leave.
Without any warning, Luo Chen's big hands took Shen Lexuan into his arms the moment she turned around, "Don't leave, stay with me, I don't want to be alone."
Luo Chen's tone was low and depressing, with a hint of unspeakable sorrow. Ordinary people might be able to hear it, but Shen Lexuan, who is famous for her high emotional intelligence in the high-end hotel industry in Jiangdong City, would not be able to miss it.
However, after hearing it, Shen Lexuan had no intention of asking Luo Chen. After lightly nodding and saying yes, she was as obedient as a lovable little bird and allowed Luo Chen to hold her. she.
Time seemed to freeze. After more than ten minutes passed, Luo Chen, who felt great comfort from Shen Lexuan, whispered in the former's ear, "Why don't you ask me what happened?"
"You tell me once and it will make you feel uncomfortable again. Rather than make you feel uncomfortable, I would rather not listen."
After responding softly to Luo Chen, Shen Lexuan turned around and stared at Luo Chen with her beautiful eyes unblinking, "No matter what happens, you still have me. As long as you are willing, I will always be with you."
Shen Lexuan injected a gurgling warmth into his parched heart. Luo Chen, who drank a pound and a half of white wine but was not even drunk because of the pain in his heart, stared at Shen Lexuan's beautiful face so close at hand, and felt A little tipsy.
Luo Chen, who had only had a good impression of Shen Lexuan, but had not reached the level of liking her, was moved by Shen Lexuan's tenderness at this moment.
I don’t know where my love started, so I kissed first and then talked.
Luo Chen's sudden kiss made Shen Lexuan's beautiful eyes slightly open, and then filled with smiles.
After a long time, the lips parted.
"I've known you for such a long time, but it seems like I've never dated you."
Putting his hands on Shen Lexuan's shoulders, Luo Chen sent out an invitation for his first date after returning to China, "If you have time, I will go shopping with you."
"This is what you said you wanted to go shopping with me. It's too late for you to regret it now."
Shen Lexuan, who was smiling brightly, feared that Luo Chen would regret it, so she immediately came to the desk and picked up the phone, "Hou Yue, cancel all my upcoming arrangements!"
"But Mr. Shen, you have an important meeting next."
"Meeting canceled!"
Snap!
After hanging up the phone, Shen Lexuan winked and took the Audi car keys and threw them to Luo Chen, "Director Luo, please wait for me in the underground parking lot first. After all, this is the first date. I need ten to fifteen minutes." Makeup time.”
It turns out, never trust a woman's word on makeup time.
Half an hour later, when Luo Chen was about to fall asleep in Shen Lexuan's car, Shen Lexuan, who had taken her makeup to a new level of beauty, arrived belatedly.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Shen Lexuan put on light makeup with warm colors. Her whole person was less capable and sharp like a strong woman in the workplace, and more soft and tender like a little woman at home.
"I suddenly regret it now and suggested that I go shopping with you."
Before Shen Lexuan could change her face, Luo Chen wisely offered his praise, "How many men would be jealous of me if I take such a beautiful woman like you out shopping."
No woman doesn't like to be praised by the opposite sex, especially the opposite sex she likes.
"Even if you can speak, you're worthy of the makeup that this director specially put on for you."
Shen Lexuan, who was already excited because of Luo Chen's invitation, unconsciously revealed a bit of tenderness and sweetness in her pretty eyes as she gazed at Luo Chen, "For the sake of being so sensible, , when I go shopping later, I decided to stop shopping for a while, finish shopping early and go home, and I will personally cook for you."
"Today, you can shop as long as you want until you are satisfied." Luo Chen, who had decided to open his heart and accept Shen Lexuan, started the car and drove out of the underground parking lot.
…
Royal Garden Shopping Center.
With Shen Lexuan's excellent figure and good looks, ever since Luo Chen accompanied Shen Lexuan into the shopping mall, he has felt too many envious or hostile gazes from the same sex.
Some brave ones (dazzled by beauty) simply ignored the existence of Luo Chen, the male companion, and went directly to chat with Shen Lexuan.
"This is the third one. These guys really don't take me seriously at all."
In just ten minutes, after swatting away three people of the same sex who wanted to chat with Shen Lexuan, Luo Chen, who was a little impatient at the response, simply grabbed Shen Lexuan's slender waist and said, "I think this is okay. Who dares to come here without opening their eyes!"
"It seems that someone is a little jealous because I am so charming. What should I do? When I go shopping, nine times out of ten I will be approached by someone."
Luo Chen took her into his arms in public. Shen Lexuan, who was already smiling, pressed her delicate lips to Luo Chen's ear, and seductively waved her left hand at Luo Chen, "The reason why they ignored you and came to chat with me. , it probably has a lot to do with the fact that I don’t have a ring on my hand. If I had a wedding ring on my hand, I wouldn’t be hit on by people casually when I go out in the future.”
Shen Lexuan's subtext can be summed up in one sentence, "If you are wise, go buy a ring and come back to propose to me!"
They are both adults and have been involved in sexual activities for many years. Naturally, Luo Chen cannot fail to hear Shen Lexuan's subtext.
Just what he heard, and considering his actual situation, Luo Chen really wanted to tell Shen Lexuan directly, "If you wait for me, you will divorce Mu Binglan a year later and force a marriage, maybe I will really Married to you."
Now, specifying is not possible.
As for direct rejection, Luo Chen's fate will definitely not be any better. After all, Shen Lexuan is still a five-star hotel executive (she still needs to save face).
Just as Luo Chen was hoping that someone could give him another life-saving call at this time, someone suddenly called out Shen Lexuan's name.
"Shen Lexuan, it's really you! I didn't expect that I would meet you here." A young woman who looks about the same age as Shen Lexuan, but is covered in jewels, carries a brand-name bag on her arm, and has enough shoes at her feet. Wearing high-heeled shoes with a high heel of 12 centimeters, she walked over with her hips twisting step by step.
"Who are you--"
When the young woman approached, Shen Lexuan left Luo Chen's arms, looked at her carefully, and then said with some uncertainty, "Tan Lin?"
"It has only been a few years since we graduated, and you don't recognize me anymore. People around me used to say that I have changed a lot, but I didn't really believe it. Now it seems that I have indeed changed a lot."
Tan Lin, who smoothed her hair, had no intention of interrupting Shen Lexuan. She sighed and then continued, "I blame my husband for everything. Since I gave birth to a son for him, jewelry, clothes and bags He gave me a bunch of bags, cosmetics and so on. No, he just gave me 50,000 yuan yesterday to buy a bag. He is almost annoying him. I have more than a dozen bags at home and I don’t know which one to carry when I go out. . But he gave me the money, and I couldn’t help but buy it. It took me a long time to pick something like this, which cost more than 30,000 yuan. I really don’t like it.”
"If it weren't for my obsessive-compulsive disorder, I would feel uncomfortable if I didn't buy one when I entered the store. I really wouldn't want to buy it."
Pretending to be disgusted, she lowered her head and patted the newly bought bag in her hand. After that, Tan Lin turned to look at the bag in Shen Lexuan's hand, "By the way, is your bag out of season? Tsk tsk, this doesn't suit you. Shen Da has the temperament of a flower. Your husband is also true, how can you let you carry such an out-of-season thing - oh, I'm sorry, I just saw you didn't wear a ring on your hand, it turns out you are not married yet."
As if she had discovered some new world, Tan Lin looked Shen Lexuan up and down and said, "As a roommate in the same dormitory during college, I have to say something to you. A woman's best years are... So many years. If I remember correctly, you seem to be like me, you are already twenty-six. Once a woman passes twenty-six, her body and appearance will all go downhill. If you don’t If you hurry up and get married, you will become a leftover girl!"
"I see that you two are quite close. If I guess correctly, this should be your boyfriend, right?"
As if she had just seen Luo Chen, Tan Lin glanced at Luo Chen and confirmed that Luo Chen did not have any brand-name clothes on his body. She immediately frowned and shook her head, "The clothes are really cheap, no wonder you have to carry them." Baobao. Shen Lexuan, Shen Lexuan, your current taste is really confusing to me. I remember that there were not a few young talents chasing you when we were in college. Why did you find such a one—— "
"That's enough, Tam Lin!"
Lest Luo Chen's self-esteem would be hurt by what Tan Lin said, after interrupting Tan Lin with a cold voice, Shen Lexuan took Luo Chen's arm and scolded Tan Lin declaratively, "The person I like has not yet had his turn. You are making irresponsible remarks! You know better than me what kind of husband you have married. I don’t even bother to talk about you, so please keep your mouth shut!"
"In addition, for the sake of your classmates, I kindly remind you. Instead of spending money to buy bags, it is better to invest in financial management, even deposit it in the bank. What if your husband finds a waiter to replace you one day? , you won’t be reduced to the point where you have no money to eat.”
After those words made Tan Lin's face turn red, Shen Lexuan, who showed no mercy, then added, "I'm sorry, I take back what I just said. You don't have to save the money to buy the bag and deposit it in the bank. Even if your husband finds a mistress to replace you, you can definitely find a rich husband again. However, you must remember to hurry up. After all, you said it yourself, once a woman is over 26, her body and appearance will be better. It just went downhill.”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Well said."
After Shen Lexuan finished speaking, Luo Chen, who had been silent, applauded a few times at the right time, saying, "Incisive, philosophical, and thought-provoking."
"you--"
Tan Lin was so angry that she couldn't even speak after being beaten by Shen Lexuan and Luo Chen in a "mixed doubles match." After stomping her feet several times, she finally regained her breath. She stretched out her hand and pointed at Shen Lexuan. He Luo Chen commented: "Sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued! Smooth-tongued!"
"Oh, I can also speak idioms."
After being surprised, Luo Chen deliberately whispered (actually very loudly) in Shen Lexuan's ear, "You are not an easy classmate. I thought being a mistress only requires big breasts."
"What are you talking nonsense about?"
After rolling her eyes at Luo Chen, Shen Lexuan asked cooperatively, "How old is she?"
"Don't say-"
Luo Chen stared at Tan Lin on the summit for two seconds, then curled his lips disdainfully, "It's quite small." (To be continued)
