"Why didn't you bring a bodyguard with you?" Xin Yi looked around and continued to ask. People of their status didn't bring bodyguards just to look cool. More importantly, they could protect themselves in unusual situations.
Moreover, he was an injured patient in a wheelchair. Yet, he had come to the park alone. It was unbelievable.
Zhang Yaozhi, on the other hand, was a little overwhelmed by the favor. Because he had coincidentally met Xin Yi again, it was not as awkward and shameful as he had imagined, nor was he scolded by Xin Yi. Previously, he had already made up his mind to endure any harsh words that Xin Yi said, even if she attacked him, he would not mind at all. He did not expect that Xin Yi would ask what happened to his leg and why he did not bring any bodyguards.
Didn't that mean that Xin Yi was concerned about him?
Zhang Yaozhi replied hurriedly, "I accidentally damaged it when I was driving. But it's not a big problem. I've been recuperating for a long time. The doctor said that I won't be able to use a wheelchair for another two weeks."
"Oh." Wan Xinyi and Han Ruoran nodded.
"As for a bodyguard, I won't bring one. It's rare that I have the chance to come out and relax. I don't want to be disturbed."
Conversations between adults were always incomparably dull, and it was already so awkward and boring. She wanted to say a few more words, but Xin Yan tugged at the corner of Xin Yi's clothes. "Sister, I still want to go boating."
"Okay, I'll bring you out. Say goodbye to Uncle." Xin Yi bade farewell to Zhang Yaozhi.
Han Ruoran followed behind Xin Yi and left.
After taking two steps, Han Ruoran turned around and happened to meet Zhang Yaozhi's gaze. Her gaze landed on his wheelchair and she felt pity for him. She wanted to do something to help his leg recover faster.
Zhang Yaozhi's gaze also landed on Han Ruoran. It was an inexplicable joy and calmness.
Han Ruoran's face was burning from his gaze. She quickly turned around.
"Xin Yi, Xin Yi, why is this man apologizing to you? What did he do wrong?" Han Ruoran asked curiously.
"That was a long time ago. He wanted to acknowledge me as his daughter and brought me home, but I refused …" Xin Yi's explanation left some scars. Perhaps the only way to truly let go of the past was to be able to tell her own story as easily as telling someone else's story, telling her own experiences.
"Huh? What is he thinking? He actually forced you to become his daughter. "Han Ruanruo was shocked. How could a father and daughter's relationship be so simple? Moreover, he even forced her.
"I don't know what he was thinking, but he sent me back. He was very nice to our family and apologized sincerely," Xin Yi continued.
Zhang Yaozhi's actions had also offset Han Ruoran's prejudice.
"Do you still hate him?" Han Ruoran continued to ask.
"I don't hate you anymore. I've forgiven you."
"What is Zhang Yaozhi like as a person? Objectively evaluate him." Han Ruoran's impression of Zhang Yaozhi was still that of a polite gentleman when they first met.
In short, Han Ruoran's first impression of Zhang Yaozhi was a positive one. She did not think that he was biased.
"Hey, Sister Ruoran, when did you start caring about other people's problems? I remember that you never gossip. Even if something really happened to me, you never took the initiative to ask me.
You wouldn't know unless I took the initiative to tell you. "
"Sister, Sister Ruoran, when you were talking to that person, you kept looking at him."
Shin Yeon's voice suddenly rang out.
"I didn't." Han Ruoran denied.
"I really did. I saw it all." Xin Yi was originally standing between the two of them, so she ran to Xin Yi's side and stayed far away from Han Ruoran. She was afraid that she would get hit for saying the wrong thing.
Xin Yi shielded Shin Yeon and said with a smile, "Our feelings don't work on this person. You have to feel it for yourself."
Later, Xin Yi contacted Zhang Yaozhi again, saying that she wanted to introduce him to someone.
Zhang Yaozhi was steady and smart. He immediately guessed that Xin Yi wanted to introduce him to the girl he had met the other day.
Perhaps feelings were interconnected. The way you felt about someone, the other person would feel the same way about you. It was just that it would take a long time to find the person in the crowd.
Zhang Yaozhi had a feeling that the person he had met at the children's park was the person he was destined to meet for three lifetimes.
Xin Yi invited them to get to know each other at a western restaurant.
The two of them arrived at the restaurant at the same time. However, it was a little awkward to meet under such circumstances.
As Xin Yi and Han Ruoran had been together for a long time, she knew very well that Han Ruoran would never stare at a man for more than three seconds. Shin Yeon said that Han Ruoran had stared at Zhang Yaozhi for a long time that day, from the beginning to the end of the conversation.
Moreover, Han Ruoran had taken the initiative to ask Xin Yi about Zhang Yaozhi. She had even asked about Zhang Yaozhi's evaluation for the first time.
This had shattered the image of Han Ruoran that was as calm as the surface of a lake in Xin Yi's heart. She had even thought that Sister Ruoran would not be interested in a man.
She had never expected that she would pay so much attention to Zhang Yaozhi.
What did this mean?
It could only mean one thing.
"Zhang Yaozhi, this is our future great artist, Miss Han Ruoran. Her works have been collected by many museums and she has won many awards in art exhibitions. She has many fans all over the world but her heart is as calm as still water. She treats fame as dirt and she is no different from an ordinary person." Xin Yi introduced her to Zhang Yaozhi.
"Sister Ruoran, this is Zhang Yaozhi. He is an entrepreneur and he has a great influence in North America."
Xin Yi introduced him to Han Ruoran.
"Hello, nice to meet you."
"Hello, nice to meet you."
After Xin Yi introduced them, Han Ruoran and Zhang Yaozhi greeted each other at the same time and shook hands.
"I didn't expect you two to have such a good rapport," Wan Xinyi said.
It was a western-style meal and they ate harmoniously.
The two of them accidentally met each other's eyes at the dining table and they quickly left.
Later on, Zhang Yaozhi needed to design a global advertisement. The theme of their design was to return to nature. They needed a professional artist's draft and the desired effect was to be like Hayao Miyazaki's. It was harmonious and natural, making people feel calm when they saw it.
Recently, Zhang Yaozhi's art studio had always been Wan Qianqian's studio.
And for such a design, Han Ruoran was naturally the best choice.
When Han Ruoran heard Zhang Yaozhi's design, she expressed her approval. That kind of creation that combined nature was what she looked forward to. Hence, the two of them hit it off and started to work on the advertisement.
Zhang Yaozhi slowly got closer to Han Ruoran.
Zhang Yaozhi always brought dinner for Han Ruoran because Han Ruoran was a serious person. She would finish today's work in the next day.
If she didn't finish today's work, she definitely wouldn't leave the art studio. She had to finish today's task. Only when she finished that day's task would Han Ruoran feel at ease.
But every day's task might not be completed on time. Moreover, this time's advertisement was going to be global. Hence, Han Ruoran was even more diligent. She didn't let go of herself just because she had some achievements. Instead, she worked hard. Every time she drew, she treated it like it was her first time.
She always had a sense of respect for her own work and she was never careless.
Moreover, every time she drew, she would be very focused. She wouldn't know what was happening around her. Even if someone called Han Ruoran's name loudly, she wouldn't necessarily hear it.
It was as if she had automatically isolated herself from everything.
Just like how every time Zhang Yaozhi came to the art studio, he would wait for two hours in her office or quietly wait for the entire morning or afternoon. Only then would Han Ruoran realize that there was someone else there.
Her focus was unparalleled, and her work was even more brilliant.
Zhang Yaozhi was even more moved by a girl like her.
"Ah, you scared me to death."
That day, after Han Ruoran finished her work, it was already four in the morning.
After admiring her work with joy, she turned around and prepared to go home. Suddenly, she saw Zhang Yaozhi sitting upright behind her. There was always an eerie feeling at night. Suddenly seeing a figure gave her a big fright.
"What do you mean scared me to death? You almost scared me to death." Zhang Yaozhi shook his head. Even though he tried his best to look more energetic, he couldn't hide his fatigue from staying up all night.
Han Ruoran didn't know that Zhang Yaozhi had called her three or four times when she was working. But because she was too focused, she didn't hear him until now.
Zhang Yaozhi looked at Han Ruoran's focused face and couldn't bear to call her. So, he sat on the sofa behind her and quietly watched her sketch, color, and draw a bunch of lines into a vivid scene.
Creating a painting was like preparing for the birth of a child.
And when the painting was completed, it was more like the successful birth of a child.
Han Ruoran, who had finished her painting, didn't lose her energy. Instead, she was full of energy. She said lightly, "How could I scare you? Look at you, you don't look so good."
"I shouldn't have looked for you to be the artist for this project." Zhang Yaozhi yawned and blinked his eyes. His eyes were a little sore. Before he accompanied Han Ruoran, Zhang Yaozhi's life was very regular. At night, he would go to bed before ten o 'clock. Recently, he often stayed up late.
But Zhang Yaozhi didn't think that it was a big deal for him to accompany Han Ruoran. More importantly, Han Ruoran was a woman who stayed up late every day for the sake of her work. He couldn't bear to see her like that.
"Why didn't you look for me? It's normal for me to stay up late when I'm painting. Even if I don't finish this project, I'll finish other projects or paint for myself. In the end, it's still the same," Han Ruoran explained.
"I'm the one who let you down. I even made you pay for me for an entire night," Han Ruoran said apologetically.
"Don't say that. How could I let you work overtime alone for so long? Wouldn't you die alone? I don't want you to work from morning to night alone. I'll accompany you forever. I'll let you know that you, Han Ruoran, aren't alone. " Zhang Yaozhi instantly hugged Han Ruoran. For some reason, his heart ached for her. He warmed this thin and stubborn body.
