Xu Lan did not eat much for lunch. Halfway through, she left the dining table to answer a call. It turned out that she had a pre-examination simulation in the afternoon.
When she returned, Qi Mingyu was cutting his steak with a knife and fork. His posture was completely unbridled.
“Take your time, I’m leaving first,” Xu Lan picked up her bag from the chair and said to him.
Before he could react, she had already strode downstairs.
Once she left, Qi Mingyu threw the cutlery forward and pushed the chair loudly.
His thin and fair face instantly turned extremely ugly.
.
However, he soon calmed down and started recalling Xu Lan’s words.
How did this little girl know about Lone Wolf? Had Mingyue told her?
Xu Lan went straight to the classroom when she came back from outside. She was still wearing a white t-shirt and black jeans. Although her clothes were ordinary, they could not hide her exquisite figure.
The entire class was in the school uniform, and she was the only exception.
Her long hair was casually scattered behind her. From the moment she entered, many boys and girls who were engrossed in their studies could not help but look up.
Since Xu Lan transferred here, her results were not bad, but they were not good either.
Her relationship with her classmates was limited to a few.
“Is she dating?”
“About the forum incident…”
Coincidentally, Xu Lan heard the two whispers. She looked in that direction.
The two girls who were gossiping immediately shut up and lowered their heads to do their work.
Her desk mate turned to look at her and asked carefully, “Xu Lan, we’ll both be admitted to different universities in the future. If we meet again, will you acknowledge me?”
The corners of Xu Lan’s lips curled up, and her gaze softened.
“Of course.”
Ever since she entered this school, because of her outstanding looks and the occasional luxury car ride, even though she was not anything like the school belle or the school hunk in other schools, they all silently acknowledged.
On the first day of the simulation, Sang Ye came to the school in her brother’s name to look for her.
Xu Lan flipped through the documents one by one on the bench along the boulevard before signing her name.
“In the future, you don’t need my permission to make decisions on such trivial matters for me.”
As she signed, she reminded him.
However, the man standing beside her immediately retorted, “Trivial matter? This isn’t a trivial matter. There’s only one amusement park in the whole of Li City. It’s such a big project, if it doesn’t go through your hands, no one will dare to make a decision on their own. Besides, I’m only the second-in-command, I don’t have such a strong say.”
Xu Lan wrote the last line and placed all the documents into his hands. She squinted at him and asked, “Do you want me to deal with this on the day of my college entrance examination?”
Sang Ye was speechless for a moment and took the document silently.
Xu Lan stood up and tucked her hair behind her ear. She said, “I’ll make a statement in the company’s internal group chat next time. I’ll promote you to the vice president of Ya Jie Science and Technology. You’ll be in charge of making decisions on projects above the upper management.”
“This… isn’t too appropriate, right?”
Sang Ye was worried.
Xu Lan stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at him.
“What’s wrong? Or are you planning to go home and fight with your brother for the inheritance?”
Sang Ye immediately waved his hand. “No, that’s not what I meant. This company is yours after all. If I make all the decisions, won’t you be controlled?”
At the end of his sentence, he smiled slyly and did not forget to nudge her lightly with his shoulder.
However, Xu Lan was extremely calm. “I’m fine with anything.”
After a short exchange, they left the field.
Before leaving, Sang Ye’s expression turned gloomy.
“Have you seen Yan Si lately?”
Xu Lan frowned and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Sang Ye lowered his head and kicked the pebbles by his feet. He hesitated for a while before saying, “Two days ago, I saw him hugging a woman at Tinglan Pavilion and impatiently entering the VIP room.”
Xu Lan’s head throbbed, and her expression instantly turned cold.
It had been a few days since she last saw him, but he had not spent so much effort to stick to her like before. He had not even sent her messages for a few days.
Could it be that this man had a change of heart?
“Go back to the office first.”
Xu Lan quickly adjusted her state of mind, her expression calm.
However, as soon as Sang Ye left, she immediately called Yan Si’s number, but no one picked up.
