Xuxu couldn't take Young Master Yan's relentless teasing any longer . So she grabbed the container and poured the porridge directly right into her mouth .
Yan Rusheng stared at her moving throat as she gulped down the porridge . It flabbergasted him!
Was this really the aloof woman who had treated everything with nonchalance and indifference?
"I've finished my breakfast; I'll get back to work . " She placed the container down on the coffee table and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand . She abruptly stood up to leave .
Yan Rusheng was left alone, feeling rather stunned .
…
"May I know if Wen Xuxu is around?"

Xuxu stepped out of Yan Rusheng's office and heard someone asking for her . She was full of doubts as she peered towards the source of the voice . Her face fell .
A scrawny guy was holding a huge bouquet of roses at the door .
She stole a swift glance at Yan Rusheng's office before turning back to face him . She replied, "I am . "
It was the deliveryman from yesterday .
"Your roses . " He passed the bouquet to her along with the invoice for her to sign on .
After Xuxu had signed it, he took it back and left .
"Stupid woman, I'm letting you enjoy the feeling of being courted by someone…"

Xuxu stared at the roses as she recalled what Yan Rusheng said yesterday morning . She could only helplessly sigh . This guy had bipolar personalities: he could either be as cold as ice or as warm as sunshine .
If this carried on, she will go crazy .
"Sister Xuxu, is it really a good idea for you and the President to flaunt your love around? You're tormenting all single people, like us!"
Her colleague gazed at her with an envious look .
Xuxu promptly replied, "Serves you right for not getting married when you're already 28 years old . "
She held the bouquet in her hands and walked back to her desk . She placed the bouquet on the floor .
She bowed her head and stole a swift glance at the roses . Actually… being courted by someone she loved was indeed a wonderful feeling .
After work in the evening, Xuxu secretly left the office without Yan Rusheng knowing .
She had promised to meet Zhou Shuang . But if Yan Rusheng knew, he wouldn't have allowed her to go .
It was the peak hour and roads everywhere were crazily congested with traffic . After nearly an hour, Xuxu finally managed to exit the main road .
The sky was getting dark by the time she met Zhou Shuang . Bright lights illuminated the street, and she caught sight of a pretty girl with a short bob, waving at her from a distance away .
It was quite chilly that night . Xuxu shivered as she wrapped her coat tightly around her . She strode towards Zhou Shuang .
Zhou Shuang beamed at her and put a hand around her neck . She narrowed her eyes in suspicion as she sized Xuxu up . "Why did you take the initiative to go on a date with me today? Do you have an ulterior motive?"
Xuxu frowned . "It's because I've neglected my beloved concubine . I was afraid that you might do something silly . "
As she said that, she pulled her arm away from her neck .
She had rejected Zhou Shuang way too many times, and she couldn't believe that Xuxu would ask her out without any motive . "Oh please, I heard that you and your husband had shown too much public display of affection recently . You must be trying to show off how loving and blissful your married life is . You're simply torturing an unattached person such as I . "
Xuxu was speechless . Did she think that she and Yan Rusheng were running a professional agency to torment people?
She looked at Zhou Shuang and curiously lifted an eyebrow . "Where did you hear that from?"
Zhou Shuang extended her hand and pinched Xuxu's cheeks . "Look at how rosy your cheeks are! That's the result of you being showered with love . "
"Hooligan!" Xuxu brushed her hand aside and raised her voice . "Do you still want to have dinner together? If not, then I'm heading home! It's freezing!"
