Chapter 12
An Huaixu walked along the artificial lake path in Yunshan Villa District, and soon she saw the soft yellow lights in her living room, and it felt like someone was waiting for her to go home. In fact, she was very happy, after all, in such a situation Not many.
An Chengyan and Jiang Mu were sitting alone at one end of the sofa. The tea on the coffee table was already cold. When Jiang Mu heard the door opening, he got up and went to meet him, but saw An Huaixu alone.
An Huaixu looked at his mother's slightly disappointed expression, and explained in a warm voice: "Lin Yusi sent me back. I invited him in for tea, but he said he wasn't ready yet, so he will come to visit next time."
She actually hoped from the bottom of her heart that there would be no next time.
An Chengyan nodded: "Lin Yusi is a well-educated child, very stable. Xiao Xu, sit here, we have something to talk to you."
An Huaixu faintly sensed what his parents might have to say, and subconsciously took a step back. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught An Chengyan's rather majestic expression, and she sat between them in a respectful manner.
After a long time, it was Jiang Mu who spoke first: "Xiao Xu, what do you think of Xiao Lin?"
An Huaixu pretended that he didn't know what his mother was asking, and silently picked up the snacks on the table. The upright image he maintained for less than a minute quickly collapsed, and he replied, "You look okay."
An Chengyan, who hasn't given An Huaixu a good face since meeting An Huaixu tonight, asked in a low voice, "Did we teach you to only look at people by their appearance?!"
An Huaixu: "..."
She silently put the snacks back on the coffee table, and said politely: "People are okay."
The frowns of the elders finally relaxed, Jiang Mu silently gave An Chengyan a wink, this weird atmosphere made An Huaixu feel his back go numb.
"I chatted with Chairman Lin tonight, and I think you are very suitable, so I decided to let you get engaged first." An Chengyan glanced at An Huaixu.
"No... what do you think we are suitable for? Don't ask what we mean, just decide to get engaged? Dad, today is the first time I met him!" An Huaixu stood up excitedly, and put The word "first time" is very heavy.
Jiang Mu took An Huaixu's hand and motioned for her to sit down first.
"Don't you think he looks okay, and he's okay?"
Under the confrontation between the two, An Huaixu's eyes sank, looked at An Chengyan and said coldly: "There are too many people in this world who are good-looking and good-looking, and I have to marry them all?"
Jiang Mu held her back, and his tone became severe: "Xiao Xu, don't talk to your father like this. Your father has always been very cautious when considering your matters."
"Careful? Can you disregard my feelings if you are careful? Since you were young, haven't you been 'cautious' enough?"
An Chengyan picked up the newspaper on the table and went to the study. An Huaixu wanted to say something angrily, but Jiang Mu suppressed him with a look, "Xiao Xu, be more obedient."
Jiang Mu stretched out his hands to straighten Li An Huaixu's hair that was blown tousled by the wind, "Didn't you just say you want to take a bath? Go baby."
Be more obedient... An Huaixu looked at the closed study door with a complicated expression, and went back to the room in silence.
The mobile phone in the bag rang several times, and the messages received were all from Lu Linzhong. She wiped her hair and glanced at the screen of the mobile phone.
"Miss An, are you home?"
"Miss An is asleep, did you dream of me?"
An Huaixu rubbed her hair dumbly, recalling the movie she watched with Lin Yusi tonight, the role played by Qin Yinghou was charming and affectionate, and she would always think of Lu Linzhong unconsciously.
"I have read it but haven't replied to me for a long time? Is Miss An missing me?"
An Huaixu didn't want to get entangled with Lu Linzhong on this issue, so he replied two words lightly: "No."
"You have, how could you look at the text message I sent you and think of other people."
"It's so late, is Vice President Lu doing something?" An Huaixu thought that Lu Linzhong had better come to her when he had something to do. She was already depressed enough that she was in no mood to joke with Lu Linzhong.
"some."
An Huaixu looked at the text message that Lu Lin replied in seconds, and had a little hope in his heart, but that kind of expectation fell to the critical value in an instant.After all, she and Lu Linzhong are just people who have had some relationships, and in the end they can only be people who have had some relationships. According to what her parents said, they will arrange for her to get engaged with Lin Yusi. Today's consultation is just a formality That's all.
New women in the 21st century will face a new type of arranged marriage. If this matter is spread, she will probably become popular if it is posted on Weibo or a live broadcast.
The vibrating phone brought her back to her thoughts, and Lu Linzhong replied: Can I treat Miss An to dinner tomorrow?We agreed earlier.
An Huaixu knew that Lu Linzhong was reminding her.
It's okay, they also lack a chance to break things down, she quickly agreed to Lu Linzhong and put the phone aside, pulled the quilt over her head and fell asleep.
The next day, according to the agreed time, Lu Linzhong arrived in Morton early.
But after waiting for An Huaixu for almost an hour, no one showed up.
Of course, Lu Linzhong didn't know the reason why An Huaixu didn't come, because just over an hour ago, Lin Yusi, the son of the Lin Group, who was not bad in length and taste, drove the car that didn't appeal to her. The people who stopped her at the gate of the court.
As soon as An Huaixu came out of the court building, she saw Lin Yusi's car parked not far from the entrance of the unit. She wanted to pretend not to see her, but the other party had obviously seen her; Not very polite.
The car lights flashed, An Huaixu took a deep breath, and walked towards Lin Yusi, Lin Yusi got out of the car, wearing a white French shirt, the edge of the RT mechanical cufflinks on the cuffs was dotted with turquoise, The trousers are straight and look particularly handsome.
"Boss Lin." An Huaixu stiffened and greeted the other party politely.
"Miss An, do you want to have dinner together?"
"I'm sorry Mr. Lin, I have an appointment."
Lin Yusi thought for a while and confirmed, "Miss An, what do you mean by this sentence?"
An Huaixu remembered what her parents told her in the living room last night, and said solemnly: "Last night, my family told me about the engagement. I, a new woman in the 21st century, really can't accept arranged marriages. I... ..."
She looked up and saw Lin Yusi's brown pupils were as calm as the West Lake with a layer of ice in winter. Lin Yusi was listening to her carefully, and An Huaixu began to reflect on whether his words were too straightforward.
"I mean, we can't be too casual about our emotions." She cleared her throat and changed the way the other party might be more acceptable.
"I agree with Miss An's idea."
An Huaixu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the person in front of her was highly educated, so the reasoning made sense. With her hands in her trouser pockets, she decided to hook up with Lin Yusi, and before calling her brothers, she solemnly confirmed with Lin Yusi again.
"This kind of engagement arranged by the elders for the younger generation has a good intention, but our wishes are also very important. Mr. Lin, you didn't promise Chairman Lin, did you?"
Seeing Lin Yusi's silent look, An Huaixu felt cold in his heart. Could it be that he has already agreed to the family?But his behavior from yesterday to today should be entirely out of politeness.
"You haven't agreed yet, have you?" She tried to find some hope in Lin Yusi's silence.
Lin Yusi nodded, An Huaixu rested his forehead and sighed, he was so angry that he was speechless, Lin Yusi looked very reliable, is the co-author a pig teammate?
"Does Miss An have a sweetheart?" Lin Yusi finally asked softly.
Sweetheart?She has no sweetheart yet, only a one-night stand.Of course, she wouldn't talk about it all over the place.
Lin Yusi probably knew the answer An Huaixu wanted to say, and said modestly: "If Miss An doesn't have a sweetheart, Miss An can consider the family arrangements."
An Huaixu: "..."
Lin Yusi was standing by the car, about to open the door for An Huaixu.An Huaixu pressed the car door handle first, her clear and pure eyes looked even clearer in the evening photo, she asked: "Boss Lin, do you like me?"
People's emotions are often hidden in the eyes, and it didn't take her too long to confirm Lin Yusi's answer.
Lin Yusi pursed his lips and did not speak. An Huaixu helped Lin Yusi give the answer.
"You don't like it or hate it, right? Mr. Lin, the fact is like this, but what makes you happier is that at least you won't deceive yourself or me." She blinked at Lin Yusi and continued: "I'm I really have an appointment tonight, see you next time."
Lin Yusi said calmly: "Okay, next time I will make an appointment with Miss An in advance."
While Lu Linzhong was waiting for An Huaixu to attend the appointment, she sent countless messages, all of which came to nothing. She was just about to leave when she saw An Huaixu leisurely entering through the main entrance with her arms swaying.
Lu Linzhong tidied up a little and pretended to sit calmly, with a peaceful and polite smile on his face.
"I've been waiting for a long time, Vice President Lu." An Huaixu sat down opposite Lu Linzhong.
"I understand the reason for the late arrival." Lu Linzhong looked at An Huaixu with an elusive gaze.
"Sorry, I encountered a little unexpected situation when I got off work."
"Sudden situation?" Lu Linzhong sat up straight, moved closer to An Huaixu, and sniffed: "The smell of cologne?"
An Huaixu thought, Vice President Lu's nose is more sensitive than hers.
"Am I right? The one from last night?"
An Huaixu nodded, as a tacit consent.
Lu Linzhong lazily raised his hand to pick up the bright red coral teapot on the side, and poured a cup of black tea for the person sitting opposite: "Actually, I didn't smell anything, I guess."
An Huaixu: "..."
"Lin Yusi, the son of Director Lin of the Lin Group. It just so happens that Zhitian and the Lin Group have some cross-commercial contacts, so they also met once."
"I thought you were investigating me." An Huaixu saw that Lu Linzhong's hands that were pouring tea elegantly paused, realized that his words were not appropriate, and changed his words, "Oh no, you investigate him."
"Do you want me to investigate your meaning?" Lu Linzhong smiled secretly and gestured to the waiter.
An Huai was at a loss for words, casually took the menu handed over by the waiter, and ordered a few dishes.
Lu Linzhong raised his eyebrows: "Drinking? Chablis"
An Huaixu subconsciously shook his head.
"Sauvignon Blanc?" Lu Linzhong didn't force An Huaixu, and asked with raised eyebrows: "Does Miss An know another name for this wine?"
"Sauvignon Blanc."
There was water in Lu Linzhong's eyes: "Yes, Sauvignon Blanc."
An Huaixu looked into Lu Linzhong's eyes, and quickly turned her face away. She didn't dare to look in that direction any more. She felt like she was peeping at a treasure that didn't belong to her.
Lu Linzhong signaled the waiter to open the Sauvignon Blanc, An Huaixu raised his head, and did not refuse Lu Linzhong to pour her wine.
"This should be the last meal that Vice President Lu and I will have alone, and we will not contact each other again."
Lu Linzhong didn't speak, and poured two glasses of wine with a calm expression.
An Huaixu looked at Lu Linzhong's exquisitely drawn makeup and skin and bones that were closely integrated, as if he was born with such a bright beauty, Lu Linzhong didn't even frown, maybe she didn't care.
There were waves in An Huaixu's eyes, and he stopped on the goblet and added: "Lin Yusi and I have decided to get engaged."
"Miss An and Xu are always friends. I am a subordinate of Mr. Xu. Even if there is no other relationship in the future, it may be too early to say that we will no longer contact each other."
Lu Linzhong smiled wryly in his heart silently, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.
An Chengyan and Jiang Mu were sitting alone at one end of the sofa. The tea on the coffee table was already cold. When Jiang Mu heard the door opening, he got up and went to meet him, but saw An Huaixu alone.
