“Come in . ”
He abandoned all his musings and answered . Then he tidied the pile of documents on his desk .
The door swung open, and a stylish and beautiful woman entered . He wasn’t in the least surprised to see his guest . He addressed her politely as ‘Miss Ai’ with a faint smile .
Ai Ruili wore a pastel green floral shirt paired with a pair of skin-tight pants . Her outfit complemented her curves and elongated her legs .
She put on light makeup after work, showing her flawless skin .
Ai Ruili wore a pair of beige stilettos and her whole appearance was refreshing and vibrant .
She strode elegantly towards Su Yan and smiled brightly . “President Su, I was afraid that you might be busy . So I came up to wait for you . ”
Su Yan shook his head . “I’m just finishing up . We can leave at any time . ”
He switched off his laptop and rose . He retrieved his coat from the clothes rack and slung it on his arm .
Ai Ruili glanced at the huge pile of documents on his desk and earnestly said, “President Su . I have nothing on tonight and I’m not hungry . You don’t have to rush . ”
She had finally snagged this rare opportunity to be alone with him . This was better than having a date at a restaurant .
Even if she were to stay here the entire night, just to watch him quietly, she would be contented .
Ai Ruili stared at Su Yan’s gorgeous face and fell into a deep reverie .
“Let’s head there early . Our reservation is at 7 p . m,” Su Yan replied softly as he marched towards the office door .
Ai Ruili had no reason to insist, as he had already walked off . She scurried after him .
On their way there, she kept trying to keep the conversation going with Su Yan . But she was very natural and subtle in her attempts .
Unlike some others who kept rattling on without stopping .
Su Yan clenched the steering wheel as he looked ahead . The sun was setting, and the roadside stalls were coming alive .
The colorful lights flickered and it suddenly distracted him for no reason .
“President Su, red light!”
Ai Ruili shrieked loudly to warn him . It jolted Su Yan awake, and the car had already shot past the traffic junction .
Pedestrians were starting to cross the road, and he couldn’t continue driving . So he made an abrupt stop .
The car screeched loudly because of friction . But they were alert, so they weren’t hurt .
After a moment, Ai Ruili turned to glance at Su Yan after regaining her composure . “President Su, are you alright? What was on your mind?”
“I was thinking of work,” Su Yan answered lightly before putting on an apologetic smile . “Sorry . I must have given you a terrible shock . ”
Ai Ruili shook her head . “I’m fine . ”
After the traffic light turned green, he moved off once more .
Su Yan was trying his best to suppress his emotions and to prevent his mind from wandering off .
He had no idea what he was preoccupied with just now . He was clearly listening to Ai Ruili talking about the recent stock market .
Then he got distracted .
In the fine-dining restaurant, all the tables were fully occupied .
They made a reservation earlier on, so they went directly to it .
Their table was at a comfortable corner with pearl curtains acting as a partition . It was relatively quiet .
