Chapter 6: Him
Half a month had passed when Ruan Liqing received the call from the old man.
She recovered from her illness in the past half month and even went on a business trip to a neighboring city.
When she came back, she received a call from the old man, asking her to go to Shen's house for dinner on the weekend night.
Before Ruan Liqing arrived at Shen's house, she went to choose a gift for the old man.
She is a grateful person. The old man has been kind to her over the years, and she has shown great respect.
But what she didn't expect was that Shen Zhuo was also there.
Ruan Liqing has not seen him since the last time they separated downstairs in his apartment.
Shen Zhuo was sitting on the sofa. He was wearing a black shirt today, with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. His skin color was already cold white, which contrasted sharply with the black, giving off a lazy and ascetic feeling.
He wears a small black rubber band on his right wrist, with a little rabbit pendant hanging from it.
That little rabbit rubber band and his ascetic attire looked extremely uncomfortable, even a little funny.
Ruan Liqing raised her eyebrows and looked back.
She remembered that there was a saying on the Internet that judging whether a boy was single was to see whether he had small rubber bands on his hands.
"Chairman, what's the matter with you?" Ruan Liqing looked at her phone, "If it's Mr. Wang's contract, I've already sent it to your email. I'll also hand in the materials on Monday for the specific situation of the neighboring city. Go to Secretary Liu."
The old man waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this. Today is a family dinner and we don't want to talk about work."
Ruan Liqing raised her eyes.
Shen Zhuo also put down his chopsticks and glanced at Ruan Liqing mockingly.
Mr. Shen is over half a century old, but he still has the majestic aura of a man who has been in power for many years.
He glanced at Shen Zhuo and said, "Don't think that I don't know about those bastard things of yours."
Shen Zhuo leaned back on the chair, "What's wrong with me?"
"Did you go to Milan last week?"
"Yes." Shen Zhuo nodded in agreement, "I won't hurt anyone if I go to Milan, right?"
Ruan Liqing lowered her eyes. It took more than ten hours to fly from Nancheng to Milan. Shen Zhuo really worked hard to see Bai Yu.
"It's not bothering anyone?" The old man kept his anger and looked at Shen Zhuo and said, "I said, I will not allow Bai Yu to enter the Shen family. You'd better give up!"
"Also, you and Li Qing have been engaged for so long. It's time to calm down and decide when to get married."
Ruan Liqing lowered her eyes and said nothing. This situation basically happened once or twice every year, and the final result was nothing more than an unhappy breakup.
And whether she spoke or not, Shen Zhuo would inevitably be angered.
At first, she would try to persuade Mr. Shen, but after being told by Shen Zhuo several times that he was being fake, she stopped talking.
Anyway, in Shen Zhuo's eyes, Ruan Liqing's appearance was the original sin.
"I don't agree." Shen Zhuo said this and stood up to leave. Mr. Shen looked at his back and slapped the table angrily, "Just stay stubborn with me! Sooner or later you will regret it!"
Shen Zhuo could leave without hesitation, but Ruan Liqing could not. She had to stay and suffer the old man's anger.
"Forget it, Shen Zhuo, you bastard. How come you don't have any ability? You did that that night. How can he still miss Bai Yu?"
"Do you still remember how you promised me back then?"
Mr. Shen became angry and scolded him a lot, but Ruan Liqing's attention was caught by one sentence.
She moved her eyelashes and said, "You said that night, in the wine..."
Mr. Shen snorted: "Do you think Liu is so bold and dares to do something in front of me?"
Ruan Liqing suppressed the panic in her heart. The old man she had always respected drugged her...
She took a breath, "...Why did you do this?"
Mr. Shen's sharp gaze passed over her body. The kindness and kindness at the dinner table were no longer replaced by alienation and scrutiny. "I hope you won't let me down again, otherwise it will end here!"
