"OK."
Qi Yue advanced and retreated, and then said: "You won't go to the company's dinner the day after tomorrow, right? Lawyer Song, busy man Song."
Song Nuan was too embarrassed to say that she couldn't go, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
She was busy until she got off work at ten o'clock in the evening. When Song Nuan came home, she saw the call from her mother and quickly called back, "Hey, Mom, what's the matter? I've been busy just now."
Song's mother said distressedly: "Why are you still busy now? Go to bed early."
"It's nothing. It's just that your aunt introduced you to a man. I've met him. He's not bad. He's a university professor."
"He is very satisfied with you. He will come to your place for study and discussion in the next two days."
"I gave him your phone number. Remember to answer it. You are not allowed to go this time, otherwise Mom will not allow you to work out of town."
Upon hearing that it was another blind date, Song Nuan said helplessly: "Mom, I'm only twenty-eight, so I'm not in a hurry."
"You're twenty-eight and you're not in a hurry? A female classmate like you in high school already has two children. Listen to your mother and don't buy things at home. Keep the money for yourself." Song's mother warned.
She was worried that Song Nuan would not go to meet again, so she gave an ultimatum, "Mom has already agreed with that man. If you don't go, I will offend your aunt. You also know that your aunt will definitely be unhappy."
When Song Nuan thought of her aunt's character, she had no choice but to agree, "Okay."
After finally hanging up the phone, Lin Rou sent a screenshot: A high school classmate is organizing a class reunion, which happens to be at your place. Do you want to go?
Song Nuan has been quietly staying in C City for ten years. Why is everything here now? She was lying on the sofa: Did you poke some holes in C City recently?
Lin Rou:?
Song Nuan: My mother asked me to go on a blind date, and that person also wanted to come to C city.
Lin Rou: Are you handsome?
Is Xie Huai still looking for you?
Song Nuan: I don’t know.
rare.
Lin Rou: That’s fine, as long as you don’t annoy me every day. Xie Huai is really strange. He’s rich and handsome, but he still pesters you.
Call him a pervert, but he doesn't look like it.
To say he is not a pervert is to say he is.
As soon as Song Nuan saw the word Xie Huai, she thought for no reason: I have a rest, I am too tired.
Song Nuan immediately forgot about the blind date. When a strange phone call came on the third day, she thought it was Xie Huai and hung up immediately.
Not long after, her mother called, "Nuan Nuan, did your aunt say you blocked that man?"
"Which one?" Song Nuan looked down at the information and asked.
"Blind date."
"I thought it was a harassing phone call."
"Pull him out quickly. He should be at the door of your company."
"...Mom, why did you give my company address to others?"
"I don't know where you are going to make an appointment, I just thought it would be more convenient for the company."
Song Nuan opened her mouth to say something, but there was a knock on the door. The front desk opened the door and said, "Lawyer Song, someone is here."
Song Nuan nodded, closed the file, stood up and walked out.
As soon as she arrived at the living room, her eyes fell on Xie Huai, who was wearing a suit and glasses. He quietly lowered his head and looked at his mobile phone, feeling a little less aggressive.
Probably because of the wound, his hair was cut into an inch, and his outline looked a bit tougher.
At this time, a man's voice sounded from the side, "Song Nuan?"
"I'm Gu Ming, introduced by your aunt."
At the same time, two eyes looked over at the same time. The man who spoke was also wearing a suit. His appearance could only be described as average, and he was a little over 1.8 meters tall.
At first glance it actually looks pretty good.
Song Nuan didn't expect Xie Huai to be here. She instinctively looked at Xie Huai from the corner of her eye, wary of him doing something bad.
He, who was originally quiet, had raised his head because of these two words, and his eyes swept over the two of them faintly.
Her scalp was numb, and she was afraid of injuring this person, so she quickly said: "Let's go out and talk."
Gu Ming couldn't help but look at her, he was very satisfied, smiled gently, "Okay."
Suddenly there was another voice, a bit cold, "You go out with him and try."
Song Nuan's steps froze and she did not provoke him in the company. She looked at Xie Huai who was walking over.
Gu Ming, who was next to him, said in confusion: "Do you have anything else to do? You work first, and then we can eat together after you finish."
"Okay, you go first."
As soon as Song Nuan finished speaking, she saw Xie Huai's eyes falling on the watch.
She didn't have time to think too much, she put her hand on his watch, took a deep breath and said, "Don't count."
Soon she urged Gu Ming, "Sorry, we are not suitable. Please leave quickly. I still have a job."
No matter how good-natured Gu Ming was, his expression changed now. He glanced at the two of them, opened the door and left in anger.
As soon as he left, Song Nuan took back her hand and said coldly: "Xie Huai, this is a company, can you let me work well?"
Xie Huai stretched out his hand and tugged at the collar of his shirt irritably, then lit the cigarette and took a deep breath. He slowly exhaled, "I don't have to force you."
"But if you dare to find another man, I will rape you."
Song Nuan still had the guts to say such things in a law firm. Song Nuan was so angry that he didn't even think about it. He slapped him in the face and shouted in a low voice: "Xie Huai! Do you still have the law?"
Xie Huai tilted his head slightly, half of his face hurt, and said in a low voice: "It doesn't happen to you."
Song Nuan realized what she had done and instinctively took a step back. However, apart from talking, Xie Huai did not even think about taking action.
The next second, she turned around and stretched out her hand to open the door. Xie Huai's big hand was pressed on her hand. There was a smell of cigarette smoke in his words. His deep eyebrows and eyelashes were longer than those of girls.
"Let's go after dinner."
Song Nuan withdrew her hand fiercely. Xie Huai didn't care about her reaction and turned around and walked towards the table.
There were two thermos buckets on the table. He unscrewed the lids with his big, knuckled hands and took them out one after another. He took out the chopsticks in the box before looking at her, "I'll leave after eating."
"You don't have to eat, I'll feed you."
As for how to feed her, Song Nuan didn't dare to try it.
Song Nuan stood for more than ten seconds, calmed down, walked over, sat down and picked up chopsticks to eat.
Xie Huai sat aside and did not stare at her. He lowered his head to look at his mobile phone. The screen of the mobile phone was not on, reflecting his deep eyebrows.
At this time, the door opened from the outside. Li Lulu looked over and saw Song Nuan eating. She twisted her waist and came in, "Nuan Nuan, you didn't even call me when you were eating. I even ordered takeout for you."
"It smells so good, I want to drink it."
After she finished speaking, she saw Xie Huai and looked at the two of them with ambiguous eyes.
"Handsome guy, thank you for what happened last time. You happened to be here. I'll invite you to dinner together tonight."
Song Nuan's expression changed and she immediately interrupted: "I have something to do."
Li Lulu said "Huh?" and asked curiously: "What's the matter? Could it be the man who came to see you just now? I just heard him talking about a blind date."
As soon as she said these words, the conference room became a little colder. Song Nuan was already holding her breath, so she couldn't help but speak a little louder, "Lulu, please go out for a moment."
Li Lu looked stern, turned around and went out.
Song Nuan lowered her head and continued eating, wishing she could finish it all in one go. The more she ate, the more her eyes turned red. Finally, she couldn't bear it and put down her chopsticks with a "pop" sound, "I won't eat."
Xie Huai stood up and took a look at the food without saying anything. He packed it up and left. When he was approaching the door, he suddenly stopped and said, "I will never come to your company again."
"There will never be another blind date."
"If you are anxious to get married, then I will take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
in the car
Xie Huai opened his lunch box and ate the unfinished food left by Song Nuan. After eating all the food, he took out his phone and said, "I want the phone number of the front desk of Xiangyang Law Firm."
Assistant He: "Okay, Mr. Xie, the company has a lot of documents that have not been signed. Should I send them over or leave them waiting for you to come back?"
"send over."
Xie Huai paused and then said, "By the way, I'll bring you a local recipe."
He Zhuli: "??"
"Okay, Mr. Xie."
Here, Li Lulu came to see Song Nuan. As soon as she entered the door, she said embarrassedly: "Nuan Nuan, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to talk about your blind date just now. Did that Xie Huai misunderstand me? Are you okay?"
Song Nuan shook his head, "It's okay."
She didn't want to say anything at the moment, "Lulu, wait until I finish my work to talk about anything else."
"Okay." Li Lulu quickly exited.
Not long after, Song's mother called, "Nuan Nuan, that man told your aunt that you were with a man and that your aunt cheated on him. Did you not tell us that you were in love?"
"Well, I didn't say it." Song Nuan didn't explain and wanted to calm down for a while.
Now she is tired of facing Xie Huai.
Song's mother was so happy that she couldn't help but say, "If you fall in love, you can fall in love. Your parents won't say anything about you. This society is normal now. Remember to bring it back to us during the Chinese New Year."
"You go ahead and I'll explain it to your aunt."
At around eight o'clock in the afternoon, Song Nuan came out to get water. Seeing that the front desk was still there, she asked politely: "You haven't left yet?"
The receptionist's expression was a bit unnatural, "Not yet."
Song Nuan smiled and said, "Just pretend I'm not here and just take it as you like."
The company has a lot of snacks, and many colleagues like to take them home to eat, but since they are adults, it is not easy to do so openly.
The receptionist said "Ah" and then said "Oh" in understanding. Watching Song Nuan come back with the water, he hesitated to speak, "Lawyer Song..."
"What's the matter? Just tell me." Song Nuan took a sip of water.
The receptionist hesitated and said, "My grandma is sick and needs money."
"How much do you want? I'll lend it to you."
"No, I'm thinking that it's not good for you to order takeout every day. Why don't you eat the food I cook and give me money for the food? It won't be too expensive. One meal is only twenty or thirty. Do you think that's okay?"
"Can."
Song Nuan nodded, but was worried that she would have no money and said, "I'll lend it to you first, to see a doctor first."
"The surgery fee has been paid, there is no rush."
"good."
After working overtime for a while, Song Nuan just packed up and got off work. She ate a little lunch, but her stomach started to hurt.
I found a restaurant nearby to eat, and then I calmed down a bit.
When she passed the security booth on her way home, the security guard stopped her and warned her, "Lawyer Song, be careful when you go home these days and try to go home as early as possible."
"What's wrong?" Song Nuan asked, holding her handbag.
The security guard whispered: "There is a single woman in building D who was raped. We can't find her right now."
Song Nuan frowned and said, "Okay."
She walked a few steps and then turned back, "When will the street lights in front be repaired?"
It was broken before and never repaired.
"I haven't heard of it. It will probably take a while," the security guard said.
Song Nuan nodded. When he passed that section of the road, he found that it had been repaired. The maintenance man was packing up tools and still talking on the phone, "Boss, it has been repaired. For 500 yuan, you can transfer it to my bank card."
"thank you boss."
Obviously not the maintenance master called by the property management.
Song Nuan didn't think much about it. When she returned home, she smelled a faint smell of smoke at the door. She subconsciously scanned the surroundings, but saw nothing.
But she knew that Xie Huai must have been here, or he would be here right now.
Not long after she entered, Xie Huai walked out of the dark staircase and leaned against the security door, smoking one cigarette after another.
After a long time, he went down the stairs.
The next day, early in the morning
Song Nuan entered the office, and the front desk came in with a lunch box, "Lawyer Song, do you think your breakfast suits your taste? Tell me if it doesn't."
Song Nuan nodded, "Thank you."
The receptionist waved his hand and then went out. Song Nuan opened the lunch box. The meal was relatively simple, including vegetable porridge, two side dishes, and an egg.
After she finished eating, she washed the lunch box and gave it to the front desk, "It's delicious."
The receptionist smiled and said, "Thank you, Lawyer Song."
After seeing Song Nuan enter the office, she took the phone and went outside, whispering: "Lawyer Song has finished eating. She said it was delicious."
The male voice on the other end of the phone said: "Nothing left?"
"Yes." The front desk.
"I'll have food delivered at noon."
"good."
The front desk hung up the phone and went in a little guilty.
At noon, Song Nuan ate the food delivered by the front desk again, which was much more delicious than takeout. Thinking of this, she picked up her phone and transferred 3,000 in food expenses to the front desk in advance.
Not enough to tell me.
The front desk received it quickly: That's enough, thank you Lawyer Song.
In the evening, the company had a dinner and got off work an hour early.
Qi Yue saw Song Nuan coming out at the front desk, "Lawyer Song, let's go together."
Song Nuan thought there were others and it was hard to refuse, "Okay."
After getting in the car, she found that they were alone. She was silent for a moment and said, "Is there anyone else?"
"They left first, what? Are they still afraid of me?" Qi Yue joked to himself.
Song Nuan shook his head, "I'm just afraid of bothering you."
"No trouble." Qi Yue said.
Song Nuan felt her phone vibrate, so she took it out and took a look. An unfamiliar text message popped up.
get off.
There was no one else except Xie Huai. She pursed her lips and pretended not to see him.
After a while, the car swayed forward violently, and Song Nuan leaned forward. She was fine, but her face was pale.
Xie Huai, he is crazy!
Qi Yue calmed down and looked at her, asking concernedly: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Song Nuan's hands tightened on the seat belt.
Qi Yue got out of the car and took a look. A black Porsche hit the rear of the car. The rear of the car was completely dented. He felt a little distressed.
The driver was a middle-aged uncle, and he didn't seem to be the owner of the car.
"Ask the car owner how to deal with it. My car is only a month old."
The driver quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, we'll pay for everything."
Just as Qi Yue was about to say something, he saw Song Nuan coming over. He took care of her first and said, "Lawyer Song, I'll give you a taxi. You go first."
Song Nuan looked at the black man who rear-ended her. The next second, she walked over and opened the rear door, revealing Xie Huai inside.
Their eyes met, Xie Huai's eyes were red, and he was holding a medicine bottle in his hand.
He poured two pills out, raised his head and ate them.
He stared at her and said coldly: "Song Nuan, you are forcing me."
