Later, Liu Jiamu applied for a job in Yanhui. He was supposed to start as an ordinary employee, but he passed the written test. During the interview, he found out that Yan Huaian was one of the interviewers.
At that time, Liu Jiamu's mouth was so big that he could swallow a goose egg.
Then, Liu Jiamu became Yan Huaian's assistant. Liu Jiamu often told his parents that he was a backdoor entrant.
He even showed off to his parents. "Look, you don't have to look for that Uncle Liu. Uncle Li, go through the backdoor of Yanhui. Your son has the biggest backdoor in Yanhui!"
Liu Jiamu later asked Yan Huaian if it was because of their relationship that he had accepted Liu Jiamu.
Yan Huaian nodded and said yes, but he also felt that Liu Jiamu was indeed capable. Moreover, through their contact in university, he knew that Liu Jiamu had a good attitude. Although he was lively, he was steady in his bones. He believed in his ability.
Liu Jiamu didn't let Yan Huaian down. He did a good job as an assistant and never made a mistake.
They were in a superior and subordinate relationship at work, but in private, they always maintained the relationship of a senior and a junior.
Liu Jiamu never distanced himself from Yan Huaian because of the change in their work relationship. This guy changed his attitude.
This made Yan Huaian very happy, and he admired Liu Jiamu's attitude and character.
However, although Liu Jiamu was Yan Huaian's assistant, he was responsible for important work. Yan Huaian had another secretary who was responsible for recording the schedule and arranging meetings with clients. Every time Yu Zi went to Yanhui, she went through Yan Huaian's secretary, but not Liu Jiamu. Therefore, she had never seen Liu Jiamu.
Because of Yu Zi, Yan Huaian finally gave Liu Jiamu a look.
"Miss Yu is really pretty and has a good personality. She said that we are neighbors, and I can look for her if I need help in the future." Liu Jiamu decisively reported what happened in the afternoon to him.
Yan Huaian's face immediately lit up with pride. "She is very good."
Liu Jiamu: "…"
Couldn't he be more humble?
Yan Huaian was thinking about Yu Zi's face, every frown and smile, and the liveliness that she showed inadvertently. He had already forgotten about Liu Jiamu.
In private, Liu Jiamu wasn't afraid of him. He took a few steps and waved his hand in front of Yan Huaian.
When Yan Huaian came back to his senses, Liu Jiamu smiled and teased him, "Senior, what are you thinking about? Are you lost in thought again?"
Yan Huaian: "…"
"Miss Yu? If you want to go there directly, it's right across the street. Now that we live close to each other, we don't have to worry about not being able to see each other anymore, "Liu Jiamu teased.
Yan Huaian said with a look of disgust, "Why are you still here?"
"…" Liu Jiamu choked. "If I'm not here, where am I?"
"I've packed everything, so you can leave now. Why are you still here?" Yan Huaian had a cold and heartless look on his face, which made Liu Jiamu furious.
He took two steps back and clutched his chest. "You … you … you heartless man!"
Then, while faking her tears, she ran out of the room.
Yan Huaian: "…"
There were also a few cardboard boxes piled up in the living room. They were the daily necessities he had asked Liu Jiamu to bring over. Including clothes, wine, etc.
He took the utility knife and cut the tape that sealed the cardboard boxes, then packed everything up.
To make it easier to pack, he took off his suit jacket and unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt, revealing his collarbone. The sleeves of his shirt were also rolled up to his elbows, revealing his muscular arms.
Finally, he washed his hands and thought for a moment before taking a bottle of sparkling white wine from the wine rack.
He knew that Yu Zi could not hold her liquor well, so the sparkling wine had a low alcohol content. It was bubbly and slightly sweet, and most women who could not drink could accept the taste. On the contrary, he did not like it very much.
Holding the wine, he went to look at himself in the mirror. He saw that he looked fine and did not look disheveled. The buttons and sleeves of his shirt that he had unbuttoned earlier also looked a little more relaxed and chic.
After thinking for a moment, Yan Huaian took a selfie of himself and sent it to the 8864 group chat.
Below the photo was a question: "Am I handsome?"
Yan Beicheng: "Little Granduncle, are you scratching your head?"
Yan Huaian: "… Go to your class!"
Yan Beicheng: "I don't have class this afternoon."
Yan Huaian did not want to talk to him anymore, so he closed the group chat and admired the photo. He felt that it was indeed not bad. This was not the kind of mature and steady handsomeness that the 22-year-old Yan Beicheng could appreciate.
Thus, he opened the door confidently and went to the other side, pressing the doorbell.
But after a long time, no one answered the doorbell.
Yan Huaian's enthusiasm froze for a moment, and he muttered to himself, "Not at home?"
He pressed the doorbell a few more times and waited for a long time. There was really no one, so Yan Huaian could only go back dejectedly.
When he got home, Yan Huaian did not do anything. He went to the dining room and moved a chair to sit by the door. His ear was pressed against the door, listening for any movements outside.
Finally, he heard the sound of the door opening. Yan Huaian immediately got up and looked through the peephole. He realized that Yu Zi had returned.
There were bags of various sizes at her feet, and she was focused on opening the door with her head lowered.
Yan Huaian quickly moved the chair back, looked at himself in the mirror, and tidied himself up.
He looked at the unruly man in the mirror and paused. After thinking for a while, he quietly pulled down the sleeves of his shirt and buttoned it up.
But the sleeves were already wrinkled because he had rolled them up just now.
He frowned, feeling that they were not handsome enough. He took off the shirt and went to the closet to open the door. After looking around, he finally chose a casual shirt.
It had to be stylish, but it was not rigid. Relaxing at home, it looked very comfortable.
Yan Huaian was finally satisfied.
When he went out again, he smelled the fragrance of cooking food from the other side.
The corner of Yan Huaian's mouth curled up. The girl he liked was really virtuous.
He adjusted his expression again and put on a gentle and refined look. He acted as if he did not know that Yu Zi lived across the street and was greeting a stranger as he pressed the doorbell.
Yu Zi was cooking in the kitchen. When she heard the doorbell, she quickly turned off the heat, threw the spatula into the pot, and hurried out. She did not even have time to take off her apron.
She looked through the peephole and realized that it was Yan Huaian!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Yu Zi was shocked.
Although she and Yan Huaian had business dealings, they were not frequent. It was only because they had worked together for a long time that they had known each other for a long time. But other than business dealings, they did not have any other contact.
They rarely met in private, and even when they did, it was a coincidence. Just like yesterday when he sent her to Sheng Yue to attend the engagement ceremony, it was mostly due to special circumstances.
Thinking of yesterday's events, Yu Zi paused. Her expression was a little gloomy, and she could not lift her spirits.
But as the doorbell rang again, she immediately thought of Yan Huaian outside. Her gloomy mood was replaced by shock.
Why was Yan Huaian here?
Was he here to look for her?
But how did he know her home address?
Feeling bewildered, Yu Zi opened the door and happened to see Yan Huaian's serious face. He was obviously serious, but she could see that he was polite. It was probably because of his movements and the elegance he had.
Yu Zi thought of the first time she went to Yanhui with her master and saw Yan Huaian.
At that time, they were separated by a wide office table. He was dressed in a neat suit. When he stood up, his long and slender fingers were holding the buttons on the front of his suit, and he was elegantly buttoning them as he stood up.
He smiled at them, nodded, and invited them to sit down. His outstretched palms were fair and his fingernails were cut short, very neat, and polished to a glossy shine.
Yu Zi had a natural obsession with men's hands. If a man's hands were not good-looking, then no matter how good his face was, Yu Zi would not think it was good. It could be said that before she was obsessed with looks, she was obsessed with hands.
Back then, the first thing that attracted her to Yue Jingchen was his hands. Because he was a doctor, his nails were short and round, and he was very hygienic. His hands were also well-defined, delicate, and slender, as if they were born to hold scalpels.
Yu Zi could not understand men who liked to keep their nails long, especially on their little fingers. She felt that it was very ugly.
Some men were a little lazy and didn't trim their nails in time. Often, their nails would grow a millimeter or two, revealing short white parts. Yu Zi subconsciously felt that there was dust hidden in them. No matter how clean they were, there would still be dust.
Ever since she was in school, Yu Zi had the habit of paying attention to men's fingernails.
When she was in middle and high school, there were boys who pursued her, but she was young and inexperienced. Not to mention the fact that Yu Zi didn't have that kind of intention, she rejected him without hesitation when she saw that the boy had an extra fingernail on his little finger, or that his fingernails were not trimmed in time, leaving behind a shattered young man's heart.
When she first saw Yan Huaian, Yu Zi thought that there was no part of this man that didn't exude exquisite elegance. He was like an aristocrat who walked out of a TV show.
No, he was more natural and real than the aristocrats portrayed on TV.
No matter how noble and elegant the aristocrats portrayed on TV were, they were still actors, and they were specially practiced for the performance. They were not like Yan Huaian, who exuded elegance from his bones and was natural.
Yu Zi came back to her senses and saw that Yan Huaian also had a stunned expression. He clearly didn't expect to see her here.
This time, Yu Zi was even more baffled.
Could it be that Yan Huaian wasn't here to look for her?
But he was really standing in front of her house!
"Mr.... Mr. Yan?" Yu Zi called out, taking the opportunity to size him up.
Yan Huaian wasn't wearing the elegant suit and leather shoes he wore at work. He was wearing a loose and casual man's shirt, looking very elegant, like he was in a celebrity street shoot.
The hand that attracted her the most was holding a bottle of sweet, sparkling white wine.
"You live here?" Yan Huaian couldn't hide his astonishment, then burst out laughing. "What a coincidence."
At that moment, Yu Zi finally reacted. "You're the new neighbor?"
Yan Huaian nodded, then raised the bottle of wine in his hand. "I just moved here, and I heard from Jiamu that my neighbor is very nice. He said that if I needed help, I could look for her. So I came to greet my neighbor, but I never thought it would be you. "
