”I've asked. He said it's nothing big, just that something happened at home and it can be settled next month.” She paused, and there was a rare shyness in her voice. ”We may be getting married in the second half of the year.”

”Really?” She was stunned for a moment, then felt genuinely happy for her friend. ”That's great.”

”Really? But I always feel uneasy, and I don't know why. ” Zhu Lingling said.

”Isn't that a fear of marriage? I heard that this was acquired by the bride before she was married. You had it so early. How rare. ” She impolitely said: ”Don't think so much about it. Just focus on loving and loving A Wen and build a good relationship with his family members.”

”Yes, I think so too.” Zhu Lingling said with a heavy voice.

”Then that's enough. Don't think too much into it, do you understand?” she added at the end.

After hanging up the phone, she was stunned again. She did not expect Zhu Lingling to enter the wedding hall so soon.

In an accident, she felt a faint envy. It was not easy to meet someone in her life who wanted to work together for a lifetime.

After thinking about it, she seemed to see Si Lianye's appearance again.

No, no, why would she think of him? Even if he was the best man in the world, it was impossible for her to walk into a marriage with him.

The distance between them was too great.

She sighed softly, and her stomach rumbled.

She stood up, changed her clothes, and walked out. There was no point staying in the room, she might as well go for a walk.

However, she didn't expect someone to call her on her phone again.

When she looked at the caller ID, she realized it was Xi Zeer's.

”Xilan?” His calm voice came through the phone.

She gave a light grunt, ”I'm sorry, I seem to have implicated you from last time.”

Xi Zeer chuckled: ”It's no big deal, I don't care.” Then he paused and suddenly said: ”Are you free right now? I want to treat you to a meal. ”

”You're too polite, I should be the one treating you to a meal.” She smiled and said briskly.

Zhuo Ya, who was behind her, was expressionless, as if he had not heard her at all.

She decided upon the restaurant's location with a few words. After walking into the elevator, she realized that there was a tail behind her and could not help but be a little unhappy: ”Zhuo Ya, can I discuss this with you?”

Zhuo Ya raised her brows and looked at her: ”Of course, what is it?”

She cleared her throat, ”It's like this. I'll let you go during the holidays. Whatever you do, just don't follow me.”

Zhuo Ya immediately shook his head: ”In fact, it's very easy for me to follow you. I'm not tired at all.” In her opinion, she had followed several employers before, and none of them were less worried than Shen Xiran. She had never gone to dangerous places, and basically, she was not a nightclub.

There was only one thing wrong with it, and that was that she always wanted to drive herself away.

How could that be possible? If he really agreed, then the boss above her head would definitely make it difficult for her to leave.

Thus, she firmly refused.

Shen Xiran deeply furrowed his brows. She had never liked someone following behind her, even though this person rarely spoke and completely disregarded her as non-existent, she was still a living person after all. Not just for the air, the pressure he felt in her heart was real.

She thought for a moment, then said, ”Then you can follow me and pretend you didn't see anything. Don't hit on my little report.”

Zhuo Ya thought, if that's the case, then the person she saw must be someone the boss didn't want to see.

She agreed.

Sure enough, when he arrived, he saw that the person waiting there was Doctor Xi Zeer. He could not help but be surprised.

It seemed like she didn't care about the boss's displeasure? If the boss found out again …

She felt that her employer was courting death.

However, this had nothing to do with her. She only needed to do what she needed to do and it would be done.

The restaurant that Shen Xiran and Xi Zeer met was a typical Western restaurant, he who received a good education abroad seemed to like Western cuisine even more.

Zhuo Ya followed them to the door and watched them enter.

Shen Xiran followed him into the private room that he had already reserved.

The delicate and delicious food, the good atmosphere, and the music that was as gentle as flowing water made her mood much better.

Xi Zeer had a smile on his face the whole time, he was graceful and only talked about some insignificant matters, not touching even a place that she didn't want to touch.

She felt that her mood also improved a lot.

Her dessert was a caramel pudding about the size of her palm. She bit the spoon and ate it. The thick burning fragrance exploded in her mouth. The beautiful feeling made her unable to restrain her joy. ”It's very delicious.”

Xi Zeer laughed: ”This pudding is the pride of the chef here. You can only sell 100 servings of it every day, the rest will be gone. Your luck is very good.”
