Three years had gone by, and she was still steadfast in her love . However, he . . . had wavered .
He had no idea when he'd started to waver . He only knew that Wen Xuxu had entered his heart, even to the point that he felt nothing when he thought of Jiayin .
He had no idea how far away his current feelings were from that quack's description; to feel agony and grief if he ever lost her .
He was determined not to sink any deeper . He had lost once in love—he would never allow himself to lose a second time .
. . .
Just like yesterday, Yan Rusheng didn't look for her in the morning . When it was lunchtime, she was about to go to his office when her cellphone rang .
It was Wang Daqin .

She answered, "Grandmother . "
"Xuxu, come over for dinner tonight . And you're not allowed to refuse," Wang Daqin ordered her loudly .
Xuxu smiled and replied, "Alright, if not you'll have to send me a plate of fish again . "
She couldn't disappoint the old lady every time .
And she needed to talk about her replacement . She would urge the old madam to make a decision, whether they had to look for a new one or to get Wen Xinyi back .
She wanted to leave as soon as she could .
Wang Daqin questioned her doubtfully, "I sent you a fish? What fish?"
Wen Xuxu clarified, "It was already so late yesterday, and you still made President Yan send the fish to my place . "

This old lady's memory seems to be failing; it only just happened yesterday .
Wang Daqin was surprised . "Huh? Third Yan said that he was going to feed it to the dog?"
In a split second, Xuxu's pretty face turned darker than the bottom of a saucepan .
She clenched her hand on the table, curling it into a tight fist . She increased her strength until the veins on the back of her hand were about to pop out .
Yan Rusheng, you just wait!
In the restaurant . . .
"Miss Wen, your food is ready . It's 500 yuan . " The young waiter placed the takeaway bags in Xuxu's hands and smiled puzzledly . "Why did you order only ribs today?"
Yes, Secretary Wen had ordered sweet and sour pork ribs, white gourd with pork ribs, red braised pork ribs, roasted lamb chops . . .
She held the takeaway bags as she grinned at the waiter . "Recently, we have a pet dog in our office . It loves to eat ribs . "
There were two big bags, and her shoulders were drooping down due to the weight .
"Haha!" The waiter nodded as he remarked . "Pets nowadays are really living the good life . "
Xuxu chuckled . "I agree . The dog in our office lives like a prince, and it's very picky about everything including eating, sleeping, and pooping . "
The waiter replied enviously, "How blissful it must be . "
. . .
Young Master Yan walked to the coffee table and looked at the table of dishes placed by Xuxu . He furrowed his eyebrows .
"Wen Xuxu, what are you doing?" He pointed at the dishes of ribs, trying to quash his anger as he questioned Wen Xuxu .
Xuxu looked at him with an innocent expression . "President, please tuck in . "
Of course, he knew that it was lunchtime . But that stupid woman had taken the initiative to buy a variety of ribs, and she was still trying to feign ignorance . He could tell that she had something up her sleeve .
Young Master Yan contemplated as he spoke coldly, "Why didn't you ask me before buying lunch?"
"President Yan, I realized that you've been looking unwell recently . So I took the liberty of buying more meat and ribs to nourish your body . " Xuxu lowered her head and pressed her lips together as she pretended to look timid . "If I asked for your permission, you would be picky about the food . "
So she was concerned about his health .
Yan Rusheng heard her explanation and his anger instantly dissipated .
He saw how Xuxu looked nervous, and his heart softened with happiness and satisfaction .
