Ye Ruge was slightly lost in thought after hearing what he said, and the man's deep and sweet voice sounded again: "You want to thank me?"
She came back to her senses after hearing the sound: "Ah? Yes..."
She really wanted to say thank you to him, but the reason why she said it just now was to ease the embarrassment. After all, this was the first time she took the initiative to call him to ask if he would come home for dinner?
Unexpectedly, he took it seriously and took advantage of this point to question.
"Then how do you want to thank me?" Huo Yanxi continued to ask.
"This..." How to thank? She hasn't thought about it yet, but she has already said it, so she can't go back on it, right?
"I... I'll treat you to dinner." She must have had a short-circuit in her brain to thank him in this way. He must be very disdainful, right?
His silence made her feel even more annoyed. She was about to take back what she just said, but unexpectedly he responded: "Okay, when?"
Ye Ruge was stunned and didn't react for a moment. How could he agree?
"Why don't you speak?" The man's voice sounded like he didn't have much patience anymore.
She didn't have time to think, and immediately said: "What about this weekend? I'll choose a place and let you know when the time comes."
"Okay." He was now very easy to talk to.
"Okay, you're busy then." Ye Ruge hung up the phone, feeling his heart beating a little fast and a strange feeling passing through his heart.
She didn't expect that she and he could communicate so peacefully.
Huo Yanxi looked at the phone that ended the call, her thin lips curled up in a faint arc, and she felt inexplicably better.
He was still depressed just now. Ye Ruge went to the apartment this afternoon. She should know that Yao Man is no longer here, so she has nothing to express?
Even if he makes a phone call in person and asks where Yao Man has gone?
Early this morning, he left Yueshu and went directly to the apartment. He asked Yao Man to leave the apartment. He had already bought her a new house and she no longer needed to live with him.
He still felt guilty for her, but he was used to living alone, not to mention that his status was different now, he was married.
Last night, Ye Ruge confessed to him that Yao Man's appearance had stimulated her, and he had been thinking about asking Yao Man to move away.
He didn't understand what was wrong with him. Why did he care about Ye Ruge's words?
The weekend is coming soon, and Ye Ruge has been choosing a place to treat Huo Yanxi to dinner these two days. She chose a private kitchen, which is a small courtyard with a strong ancient style. You can designate a chef to cook, but you must make a reservation in advance.
She had eaten at this restaurant a long time ago, and it tasted good. The main reason was that the environment was very good, and she could have a quiet meal with him here.
Ye Ruge dressed up specially before going out, and the makeup on her face was very delicate.
Afraid that something might happen to him, she called him again after getting in the car.
"Are you done with your work? Are you free to go have a meal now?"
"The work is never finished. Since you beg me again and again, I will reward you." Huo Yanxi closed his notebook and prepared to leave the company.
Ye Ruge wanted to roll her eyes at him. When had she begged him?
"Ye Ruge, you said you were just going to have a meal to thank me. Isn't this a bit perfunctory?" The man was a little dissatisfied.
Ye Ruge hadn't thought about how to thank him before, so she blurted it out at that time and could only go on.
"Come on, I'll prepare a little surprise for you then."
"Oh? Surprise? Well, I'll be there soon." Huo Yanxi felt a little expectant when she heard there was a surprise.
Ye Ruge put down her mobile phone and saw a flower shop next to her, so she asked the driver to stop.
In fact, she didn't want to give him any surprises. If he asked, she would be more sincere and give him a bouquet of flowers.
She thought that he should have sent flowers to many women, but never received them. She was the first woman to send flowers to him. Isn't this a surprise?
Ye Ruge also chose 99 red roses in a conventional way. I wonder how he would feel after receiving these flowers?
She came to Xiaozhu Private Kitchen with flowers in her hands, reported the reserved private room number, Yayuan, and the waiter showed her the way.
Someone in the box in front made a call and opened the door and came out. The man glanced at Ye Ruge, who was following the waiter, and his expression suddenly changed.
"I have something to do now. I will contact you later." Ji Yuan hung up the phone and hurriedly caught up with him.
"Cantabile!"
Ye Ruge heard the call from behind and looked back hesitantly. A familiar face came into view, full of surprise: "You..."
"Ruge, it's really you!" Ji Yuan walked up to her, extremely happy.
"Ji Yuan, why are you here?" Ye Ruge was surprised and pleasantly surprised.
She had the best relationship with Ji Yuan when she was studying abroad. He was a senior and helped her a lot and took care of her a lot.
Later, he graduated and stayed abroad to start a business, while she returned to China, and they lost contact after that.
"I've returned to China." Ji Yuan looked at her deeply, and when he saw the bright roses in her hands, he couldn't help but ask: "Are you here for a date?"
She shook her head: "No, I'm inviting you to dinner." She looked at him. After not seeing each other for so long, he had lost weight and became much tougher: "When did you come back?"
Ji Yuan's eyes shifted from the red rose in her hand to her: "Yesterday, I happened to have dinner with friends today, why don't you come with me?"
Ye Ruge really wanted to get together with him, but she invited Huo Yanxi today, which was inconvenient.
She was a little embarrassed and said: "I can't do it today. How about you give me your phone number and I'll make an appointment with you when I'm free?"
Ji Yuan's eyes dimmed, but he still looked at her deeply: "Okay."
They exchanged contact information. Ye Ruge thought that Huo Yanxi would be arriving soon, so he said goodbye to Ji Yuan: "That's it for now, I'll treat you to dinner another day and catch up on old times."
She was holding the flowers and was about to turn around when Ji Yuan suddenly called her: "Ruge..."
She looked back suspiciously, and he suddenly approached, reaching out to hold her in his arms. She was startled but did not push him away: "Ji Yuan?"
"Ruge, we haven't seen you for so long, have you missed me?" He held her tightly and tightened slightly, smelling the fragrance of her hair, which was a scent he was familiar with and nostalgic for.
Ye Ruge's eyes flashed slightly, unable to answer his question.
She married Huo Yanxi not long after returning to China. Her life after marriage was a mess and she was in no mood to think about other things.
After they broke off contact, she didn't think about him anymore.
She was silent, and he continued: "I miss you, I have always missed you..."
"Ji Yuan..." Ye Ruge grabbed his suit and tried to push him away, but the tone in which he expressed his longing for her softened her heart.
When she was studying abroad, she noticed that he had different feelings for her, but he never made it clear, so she just pretended that she didn't know.
She didn't expect that after seeing each other for so long, he would express his thoughts so directly, which really caught her off guard.
Just as she was hesitating whether to push him away, a cold shout suddenly sounded: "Ye Ruge! Is this what you call a surprise for me!?"
