no appointment

In this way, about a week passed.

When Friday was approaching the end of get off work, it was rare for Jing Han not to work overtime. Instead, she changed into a white dress, held a small handbag in her hand, and stood downstairs in UBS waiting for the car to pick her up.

She looked at the time, and she was delayed for a while because of work, so she probably was going to be late.

Just when Jing Han couldn't wait to call and urge her, she saw a red Maserati parked in front of her. Of course, this car was familiar to her, and she had been sitting in it for nearly a month.

Sure enough, the slender arm of the right driver's seat pushed the car door open, "Come on," a familiar soft voice sounded, and she vaguely saw the woman inside wearing sunglasses, and she could definitely tell that it was Ruan Mu by her silhouette.

Jing Han looked at the time, pursed her lips unconsciously, and hesitated for a while.

"Suet, you come up."

Ruan Mu repeated those words again, her lips curled up, a half-smile, "I just don't want to see you late for the dinner, don't you?"

……

After all, Jing Han compromised, and sat in Ruan Mu's car again in the past half a month.

The car was on the way to the manor in the southern suburbs at high speed, and during the nearly an hour's journey, the two of them hadn't talked at all, and Ruan Mu didn't even start talking to her.

From the beginning to the end, she just said "get off".

They had quarreled with each other before, but this time Jing Han felt that she had no idea. She knew the reason for Ruan Mu's indifferent appearance, so even though she heard the phrase "get off the car" that had no emotion at all, , she felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't say anything like "Can you stop treating me like this".

She knew that she had no right to ask Ruan Mu how to treat her, and she would only humiliate herself if she said it.

"Why, don't you get out of the car?" Ruan Mu took off his sunglasses, and seeing that she was still not getting out of the car, he stopped and glanced at her.

"...It's okay." Jing Han still didn't say anything after all.

This is a manor in the southern suburbs of London. The car was parked at the iron gate of the manor. They stood at the iron fence in front of the garden and waited for a while. A British woman about 35 years old got out of the car and walked towards them.

Ruth arrived just in time. She walked up to the two of them and took a rough look at their outfits. Her eyes lingered in the eyes of Ruan Mu and Jing Han for a while, and she suddenly said, "I think you should be enough." Smart, it won't affect your work because of this, right?" Her words were both cryptic and direct.

"..."

Jing Han pursed her lips and said nothing for a moment.

On the other side, Ruan Mu smiled, "How could that be? If you think too much, just like it wouldn't affect your work five years ago, it won't affect your work now."

"That's good," Ruth gave Jing Han a deep look.

At this time, a housekeeper in a well-fitting suit greeted them, and after Ruth reported their names, he politely led them in.

She is a nearly 40-year-old English woman. As the heir to the largest retailer in the UK, she has always had a cooperative relationship with UBS. Ruan Mu has a good personal relationship with her, and she will occasionally be called out by her to watch horse racing or play golf together. kind.

A certain weekend before, she also said that she would invite Ruan Mu to the Isle of Wight for vacation, because Ruan Mu had mentioned Jing Han, and she had met Jing Han twice, so she specially asked Jing Han to come with her that time, but Jing Han refused during that time.

Today is my son's birthday. As a big customer, I can't ignore it. The senior management specially ordered Ruth to take Ruan Mu with me. In fact, Jing Han shouldn't be there today. Jing Han didn't know why he asked her to come, but It is obviously impossible to refuse for a while.

……

They walked through the garden outside the manor for a while, and through the hall where wine glasses were placed and a stage was vacated. With a large bbq tool, there are even specially invited chefs and bartenders.

Jing Han didn't know most of the people present, but Ruth and Ruan Mu walked all the way, and many people greeted them, "..."

Jing Han had anticipated such a situation. When she first joined UBS, she discovered the obvious difference between Ruan Mu's personality and her own. Ruan Mu liked to maintain a close and intimate relationship with clients, but Jing Han didn't like it.

Jing Han didn't mind this matter much in the past, but today, after being treated indifferently by that woman, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"..."

Tonight's bbq was requested by her youngest son. The blond young lady is neatly dressed, speaks English accent fluently, but has a naughty temper. She has been running on the lawn in the backyard, fighting with boys of the same age, okay? It was easy to catch him, pulled him to say hello to the guests one by one.

Then, they saw that nearly 40-year-old British woman who was still well maintained.

First he shook hands with Ruth politely, Mrs. Xiaozheng also said hello to Ruth solemnly, then, he glanced behind Ruth, and suddenly threw himself into Ruth's arms, "!" It was obviously not the first time he had seen Ruth. , seems to like her very much, smiling happily.

Ruan Mu pulled him off his body, touched his head and said with a smile, "I prepared a gift for you, remember to ask your housekeeper for it later."

Xiaozheng wanted to act coquettishly and pulled him back with a smile, "heart, I want to call"

It seems that this woman has a very good relationship with Ruth. Unlike the polite handshake with Ruth, she even took the initiative to hug Ruth, "Long time no see, don't spoil him," Ruan Mu smiled and posted to her. On the face of it, there is never a lack of nice words, "How come, who doesn't want to spoil him."

After a few jokes, the two finally noticed Jing Han who was silent beside her, her eyes lit up, "Oh, you finally brought your girlfriend here today."

"..."

Jing Han was startled, and then hesitated. She wanted to explain, but she felt that if she didn't keep asking, she didn't want to spoil her interest. At this time, explaining was unnecessary, "..."

Jing Han didn't say anything, but her lips curled up in a polite arc, trying to change the subject without comment.

But Ruan Mu didn't think so, "We're not together," she directly denied.

She seemed surprised, "What, isn't it?" She looked at Jing Han, because she had heard Ruan Mu talk about the matter with Jing Han before, and she always thought that the two of them could be together if they broke the layer of paper at any time relation.

When asked about this topic, Ruan Mu was obviously in a bad mood, "It's nothing," she smiled.

"Oh," Ruan Mu withdrew his hand resentfully, as if he suddenly didn't want to talk.

At this moment, Ruth interrupted the conversation of several people. She took the initiative to chat with her about the business, and found an excuse to let Ruan Mu and Jing Han go aside first, obviously because they were afraid that the two of them would make the atmosphere too embarrassing again.

Ruan Mu paused, but agreed with a smile.

……

"Why not deny it?"

Ruan Mu didn't seem to have any appetite, so he took a glass of wine from the waiter's tray, and after standing still in the corner, his first sentence was to ask Jing Han what happened just now.

"..."

"She should just ask a question and finish. I don't think it's necessary." Jing Han looked at her slightly indifferent eyes, moved her lips, and lowered her eyes.

"That's right." Ruan Mu seemed to find her answer too funny, and hooked her thin lips, "What do you think is necessary? You don't even think it's necessary to tell me directly."

Ruan Mu's words became choking again, and even the way she looked at her seemed to be a different person.

Finally, Jing Han couldn't take it anymore, she could no longer pretend to ignore it, and said in a low voice, "Ruan Mu..." She looked at the woman with a complicated expression, "Can you stop doing this?"

For a week, Ruan Mu's attitude made her feel very uneasy, and it had reached the point where she couldn't get rid of it.

"Then what do you want from me?"

Ruan Mu looked straight at her, his thin lips curled up, "Do you want me to continue chasing you without dignity, and then you continue to ignore me?"

"I'm not out of temper, my dear."

Ruan Mu squeezed the wine glass, and looked into Jing Han's eyes impartially, "I also want to treat you better, but as long as I think of your way of not taking my emotions seriously, I will laugh." Can't come out, do you understand?"

This is the second time Ruan Mu said these words to herself. Jing Han clearly saw the emotion in that person's eyes, and saw Ruan Mu's disappointment in herself. She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and there seemed to be something in her eyes. Emotions are shaking.

But Ruan Mu looked straight at her, and continued to speak harshly, "Jing Han, you have been used to doing whatever you want these past few years, and you never considered whether I was uncomfortable or not, hurting me is just like a daily behavior."

"You don't take all my good wishes to you. You don't think I have any feelings at all. You won't be sad, will you?"

"If you feel that my words make you particularly uncomfortable, of course I can pretend to forget it and continue to act like a colleague with a normal relationship with you." Ruan Mu curled his lips and put the wine glass aside, "In this way you You should be satisfied."

After she finished saying that, she took a deep look at Jing Han and wanted to leave.

"..."

Jing Han held Ruan Mu's hand before she wanted to leave, her eyes turned red, "I'm sorry..." Jing Han only spit out these three words after a while, and repeated, "I'm sorry, I don't want to do this either. "

Ruan Mu looked at the warmth in her palm, and took a deep breath. She looked at the water in the cold eyes and the redness in the eyes, and she felt uncomfortable.

"Jinghan, tell me what exactly do you want?"

"..." Jing Han didn't speak, but just looked at her.

After a while, the emotion in Ruan Mu's eyes softened a little, and a little smile floated on his lips, "Look, you don't know what you want."

"But I know what I want, and I just want you."

Ruan Mu's deep eyes fell on her flushed eyes, "I just hope you don't torture me anymore, if you want to be with me, don't act like you want to push me away at any time,"

"I hope you think clearly, think clearly, instead of running away, do you understand?"

She flicked Jing Han's hand away, and said softly, "Don't use an apology to solve the problem with me, and I don't need your apology either."
