Hearing these words, Yang Cheng's heart skipped a beat, but since he had already come this far, it wasn't a good thing to be a deserter anymore, so he smiled stiffly and said, "We live under the same roof, we'll see each other all the time. This kind of thing happened a lot in the past, I can't keep hiding. You go do your work, I'll go in first."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Zhao Hongyan could only give Yang Cheng an encouraging look, then carried the documents downstairs.
Yang Cheng walked to the office door, hesitated for a while, then knocked on the door.
"Please come in." Lin Ruoxi's voice was calm.
Yang Cheng carefully opened the door, tried his best to make his smile look normal, and said with a face full of admiration, "Aiya, no matter how many times I see a woman sitting in an office, no matter how I look at it, she's breathtakingly beautiful …" Ruoxi, why don't you go and endorse those cosmetics brands of Yu Lei? You don't even need to put on makeup to be able to beat those artificial models … "
Women would always like someone to say that they were beautiful, regardless of whether they were beautiful or not.
However, Yang Cheng realized that his bootlicking skills didn't seem to be very good, because the woman didn't even give him the slightest special reaction.
Lin Ruoxi was sitting in her seat looking at something. When she heard Yang Cheng's words and a series of opening remarks, she didn't even raise her eyebrows.
"What's the matter?" Lin Ruoxi said unhurriedly.
Yang Cheng was overjoyed, at least she would pay attention to him.
Thus, he hurriedly said, "Oh, haven't you been going to the gym in the morning recently? I went to the mall today to buy some sports equipment for you. They're all quite interesting, so I wanted to bring them for you to try."
Lin Ruoxi slowly raised her head, her cold eyes were like two sharp knives, "Director Yang, if there's nothing important at work, please leave."
Just as Yang Cheng was about to open the bag, he stopped and nodded awkwardly, "Oh, then I won't mention this … Ruoxi, I know you must be angry at me, but I really had a reason last night. It was a matter of life and death, I had to do that first."
"You can be a hero, a living Bodhisattva, or a man that other women can only dream of. It has nothing to do with me, so you don't have to explain anything to me," Lin Ruoxi said coldly, "Besides, do I need to explain anything to a man who left so casually? Don't you think that once you explain, that cool image of yours will be ruined? Isn't that too much of a pity? "
Yang Chen's mouth was half-opened, but he didn't know what to say. He was at a loss for what to do. Smiling stiffly, he said, "Don't say that. I know I was a little impatient and rough in handling the situation, but I hope you can understand me.
Mingyu's brother ran away from home, and that silly woman was afraid that it would affect our work together, so she dragged it out until night time. Of course I was angry and anxious … Oh, right, I went to save Liu Minghao, the guy who chased after our Zhenxiu in the past. You know him too, right? "
The more he said, the more Yang Cheng realized that Lin Ruoxi was exceptionally cold.
"Speak, explain, I'm listening." Lin Ruoxi was indifferent.
Yang Cheng stuttered for a while, "I … I'm done, hehe …" That's it. "
"Since you're done, please leave before I tell you to 'scram'." Lin Ruoxi's eyes were like cold stars as she gritted her teeth.
Yang Cheng sighed and nodded helplessly.
Before he left, he turned around again, picked up the big plastic bag, and asked with a smile, "Ruoxi, I picked these for you …"
"Scram!"
"..."
Yang Cheng completely lost his confidence. It seemed that the woman was really angry. Although he felt uncomfortable, he didn't dare to go against the wind.
This was also because Yang Cheng didn't see Lin Ruoxi's situation last night with his own eyes.
After all, yesterday, Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi appeared as husband and wife. However, when it was time for the main event of the ball, Yang Cheng left Lin Ruoxi at the door in front of everyone. Moreover, when Yang Cheng was talking on the phone, some people who paid attention heard that he was talking to another woman.
In this way, Lin Ruoxi's situation was especially awkward. Many people started to secretly say that CEO Lin was cheated on by her husband.
Although this kind of thing was not uncommon in the upper class, although Lin Ruoxi also knew that this was really cheating …
However, in such a public occasion, being whispered and laughed at behind her back was more painful than being stabbed in the body!
What made Lin Ruoxi unable to vent her anger was that this bad guy didn't go home at night. He didn't go home early in the morning. Obviously, he didn't go home all night!
In this way, he came to my office in the afternoon to beg for mercy. He didn't bring anything delicious or beautiful, but a bunch of boring exercise equipment!
Lin Ruoxi even felt that if she didn't still have rationality, she would have picked up the computer monitor and smashed it!
After leaving Lin Ruoxi's office, Yang Cheng wasn't in the mood to go to work. He made a phone call and asked Hannya. After confirming that everything was fine, he went home with a bag of things.
When he returned home, Guo Xuehua was fiddling with the mung bean sprout. In such a hot day, the mung bean sprout would grow in a week. Most of the time, there was nothing to do at home, so raising these green food became the two women's fun.
Because Yang Cheng didn't go home last night, Guo Xuehua and Mother Wang only knew from Lin Ruoxi that Yang Cheng went out to do something important, so they didn't call to ask.
Seeing that Yang Cheng had come back, Guo Xuehua quickly ran out and said, "Son, what did you do last night? Why is Ruoxi's face so cold this morning? She hasn't been like this for a long time. Did you find a new lover? "
Yang Cheng almost fell to the ground. He smiled bitterly, "Mom, do you think I reject anyone and look for women all day?"
"Then why is Ruoxi so angry with you?" Guo Xuehua was puzzled.
Yang Cheng had no choice but to tell her what happened last night.
"You didn't go home last night because of this?" Guo Xuehua asked.
Yang Cheng scratched his head embarrassedly, "It was already two o'clock in the morning when I got back to Zhonghai, so I slept at Mingyu's house. I just went to the company to apologize to Ruoxi and brought her a gift, but she seems to be still angry. "
Guo Xuehua wanted to scold him, but she didn't know what to say. "You little rascal! Being your mother will shorten my lifespan by at least ten years! Why do you have so many things to worry about? Gifts? What gifts did you buy? Glutinous rice balls? "
Guo Xuehua's face stiffened every time she thought about her daughter-in-law's love for glutinous rice balls.
Yang Cheng hurriedly shook his head, "This is much more advanced than glutinous rice balls. Look, these are the most advanced sports equipment. Didn't I let Ruoxi exercise? She can use them now..."
As he spoke, Yang Cheng opened the big bag and showed Guo Xuehua.
Guo Xuehua picked up an armband and an Apple music player. She stared at them for a while and said sadly, "I think you deserve it when Ruoxi told you to get lost. If I was angry, I would have thrown these on your head!"
Yang Cheng felt a chill in his heart. He bought them for Liu Mingyu, and she was quite happy. Why couldn't he give them to Lin Ruoxi?
Guo Xuehua did not seem to have the energy to say anything. She put down the things and went back to the kitchen to play with her bean sprouts. Yang Cheng was speechless again.
For the whole afternoon, Yang Cheng surfed the internet and played games in his room. He also downloaded a large number of songs for the MP3 player he bought for Lin Ruoxi. He planned to let Lin Ruoxi experience them when she exercised the next morning.
Of course, he was more concerned about how to appease his wife's anger.
When it was almost dinner time, Yang Cheng went downstairs. He thought that Lin Ruoxi would come back, but unexpectedly, Lin Ruoxi had already called home to attend an international trade conference. Because it was organized by the government, it was not easy to reject it, so she could only go home very late.
Yang Cheng had prepared a bellyful of flattering words, but they all came up empty, and he began to worry again.
When he sat down at the table, Yang Cheng noticed that even Zhenxiu was nowhere to be seen. No wonder the dining table was so empty.
"Mom, Mother Wang, where did Zhenxiu go? Why has she been appearing and disappearing so mysteriously these days? Is she still helping out at the orphanage at night?" Yang Cheng asked.
Mother Wang came out with a bowl of vermicelli and smiled. "Young Master, there's no need to wait. Zhenxiu has been working at the beach in the afternoon these days. She said that she will be working part-time during the summer and will come back by bus at night."
