[I'm going to Shanghai for a business trip tomorrow. Do you have any gifts that you want? I'll bring it for you.]
It was the first day of their relationship, yet they had to be in a long-distance relationship for a few days. Ruan Zhi felt that she was really miserable.
Ruan Zhi pursed her lips. Her fingers tapped on the screen a few times and replied with what she wanted.
Qi Zhan replied quickly.
For a moment, Ruan Zhi felt as if she had returned to her university days. At that time, Qi Zhan and Zhou Jinwen would occasionally go to other places to participate in competitions. Every time they left, they would ask her if she wanted any gifts. She would go back and check the souvenirs there. If she liked anything, she would tell them directly and they would give it to her when she came back.
At the same time, if she went overseas for a vacation, she would basically bring them some local specialties as gifts.
There had never been an exception in those few years. It was only when Qi Zhan went abroad that this agreement was naturally voided.
……
As it entered May, the temperature of Qing Ning gradually rose.
This year, the temperature in Qing Ning seemed to have risen a lot. It was only May, but it had already reached a high temperature of 30 degrees. It was almost the same as the temperature in midsummer. However, the temperature difference between day and night was also large. The temperature in the morning and evening was only 18 or 19 degrees.
She simply did not know how to dress.
Ruan Zhi's first reaction after waking up was to check the weather and temperature on her phone to confirm her clothes. Then, she clicked on the weather in Shanghai and sent a warm reminder to Qi Zhan before getting up to wash up.
It was already the third day of Qi Zhan's business trip.
She would be able to see him in another day.
By the time she was done washing up, Qi Zhan had already replied to her message. After packing her bag, Ruan Zhi fiddled with her phone as she rushed out of the door to work.
Perhaps she didn't realize it herself, but she had a smile on her face all the way.
However, when she reached the entrance of the company, her smile froze when a bouquet of flowers suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
"Ah Zhi! Good morning!" Mo Yu's handsome face emerged from behind the flowers, his face brimming with smiles.
Ruan Zhi hadn't seen Mo Yu for a few days now. It was partly because she felt awkward, but also because she wanted him to sort out his emotions.
However, she had never expected that Mo Yu would actually do such a thing in the end. It simply made her heart feel extremely tired.
Ruan Zhi took a step back and looked at him helplessly.""Morning, but Ruyu, where did you come from?”
"Do you like it?" Mo Yu scratched his head in embarrassment and stretched the bouquet forward, revealing his canine teeth as he smiled."I told you, I won't give up, Ah Zhi.”
Ruan Zhi still didn't take the roses from his hand. She stared at him thoughtfully for half a second before letting out a long sigh and slowly telling him,""I'm sorry, I already have a boyfriend. You should…"
"Ah Zhi, do you hate me that much?”Before she could finish her sentence, Mo Yu interrupted her with a hurt look in his eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched in a self-deprecating manner." You've already rejected me once. I understand. There's no need to find such an excuse that can be seen at a glance.”
"I really don't need to find another excuse, so Ruyu, I'm not lying to you. I really have a boyfriend.”Ruan Zhi looked at him helplessly.
Mo Yu was stunned and stammered for half a second. He was still a little unwilling."Who is it? Do I know him? I've never heard you mention having feelings for anyone.”
"He's someone I really liked in university.”When Ruan Zhi mentioned Qi Zhan, her eyes were filled with obvious tenderness.
Liking someone could not be concealed. Just by looking at the smile in her eyes, Mo Yu knew that she really did not lie to him. He felt a little bitter in his heart, took a deep breath, and pretended to smile casually."Okay, I understand. I won't disturb you again in the future.”
" I'm sorry…" Ruan Zhi looked at him.
The corners of Mo Yu's mouth twitched slightly as he shook his head gently.""There's nothing to be sorry about. It's not right or wrong. Then, Ah Zhi, can we still be friends? Just like before."
Ruan Zhi was silent for a few seconds before she smiled and nodded."Of course."
"Take the bouquet and accept it. I've already bought it. It's a pity to throw it away.”Mo Yu then handed the rose in his hand to her again and scratched his head in embarrassment."Besides, it's embarrassing for me to go upstairs with a bouquet of flowers. Just treat it as a gift from me as a friend.”
Ruan Zhi looked at his slightly shy appearance and felt helpless. She could only take it and sigh."So why are you still playing these tricks when you know I won't accept it?”
"I just wanted to work hard. Who knew that someone would beat me to it.”Mo Yu heaved a sigh of relief and followed beside her with a slightly aggrieved snort.
Ruan Zhi had nothing to say and only smiled lightly.
The workload that day was not heavy, and the recording went smoothly the entire morning.
During the break, Qu Wan 'er looked at her suspiciously before quickly scurrying to her side and asking in a low voice,""Sister Ruan, why do I feel like you've been a little different these past two days? Are you hiding something from me?”
Ruan Zhi restrained the smile on her face and pretended to be shocked.""How is it different? Haven't I always been like this?"
Qu Wan 'er rolled her eyes at him and pouted."Sister Ruan, you never used to check your phone four or five times a minute. Are you waiting for someone's message?”
"I, I'll check the time, alright?”Ruan Zhi looked away guiltily.
Qu Wan 'er turned her head to look at her with a teasing smile. She raised her voice and laughed in a mature voice."Is that so? Sister Ruan, do you dare to look at me and say that again?”
Ruan Zhi was defeated. She shook the phone in her hand and nodded."Okay, I'll tell you. I'm indeed in love. Are you satisfied?”
Hearing this, Qu Wan 'er's eyes lit up. She quickly moved closer to her and smiled ambiguously."Who is it? Was it Mo Yu? You've been thinking about it for a few days, and you finally can't resist his pursuit?”
"It's not him." Ruan Zhi felt helpless.
Qu Wan 'er did not believe him." Stop it. I saw you take Mo Yu's flowers today."”
"I did accept the flowers, but I also made it clear to him that we're just ordinary friends from now on.”Ruan Zhi explained.
Qu Wan 'er was stunned by his words.""Is it really not Mo Yu?"
"It really isn't."
"Who is that? Do I know him?" Qu Wan 'er chased after him.
Ruan Zhi paused for a moment, then the corners of her lips curled up slightly."Keep it a secret."
"Don't, Sister Ruan." Qu Wan 'er begged with a bitter face.
"You…don't know him. He's my university friend, someone I used to like a lot.”Ruan Zhi explained to her half-truthfully.
She didn't plan to reveal her relationship with Qi Zhan in the company to avoid unnecessary trouble.
After all, Qi Zhan's identity was there.
Qu Wan 'er didn't think too much about it and only sighed deeply on Mo Yu's behalf. After softly muttering a few words, she still congratulated him joyfully.
Just as the two of them were chatting happily in the resting room, there were a few knocks on the door.
She looked up and saw that it was Qi Zhan's assistant.
"Ah Zhi, President Qi wants you to go to his office and bring a few of your dubbing works over.”
Ruan Zhi was stunned for a moment and blurted out,""Isn't CEO Qi still on a business trip in Shanghai?”
"Hmm? How did you know that CEO Qi went to Shanghai on a business trip two days ago?”The assistant was also stunned.
