Although it wasn't something to be happy about when her man's beauty was coveted and she felt a little stifled, it wasn't to the extent of being jealous and having to play tricks on her. Now, she was in the mood to tease him.
"See?" Qi Chenglin saw that she was not jealous and felt a little upset. He pulled Ruan Danchen over and protected her in his arms, but he was not in a hurry to get into the car.
He knew that the people in the room upstairs could see them from where they were standing.
Just from what Gao Xiaoyang had said on the phone, he guessed that her classmates would be quite curious. At this moment, he did not know how many people were watching from the window.
He was wearing sunglasses, so Ruan Danchen could not see his eyes. Qi Chenglin raised his eyes and glanced up. Sure enough, he saw a lot of people crowding by the window.
Those people saw that he did not look up, so they were quite relieved.
So Qi Chenglin was relieved to show them their love, but Ruan Danchen did not know what he was thinking.
She was just rolled into his arms. They had just come out of the restaurant. It was warm inside and cold outside, and the temperature difference was a little big. Once she was in Qi Chenglin's arms, she felt warm and comfortable.
"Weren't you standing by the window just now?" Ruan Danchen chuckled and let Qi Chenglin wrap her into his long coat.
Through the sweater under his coat, she could feel his body temperature and his fresh scent coming from above her head.
Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows. The sunglasses were big, and his thick black eyebrows were only slightly hidden above the sunglasses. He curled his lips and pinched her waist lightly. He pinched her hard, not to the extent of hurting her, but to let her feel his displeasure.
"Not jealous?"
"Didn't you ignore her?" Ruan Danchen smiled. Because he was ignoring her, her smile was especially happy and sweet. "You are so good at attracting people. If you get jealous over small things, how can I handle it?"
Ruan Danchen pouted slightly. She was still quite dissatisfied with him for being too eye-catching.
She even glanced at him a little resentfully. "You're such a good man. You're just standing by the side of the road and not doing anything. You don't even use your sunglasses to seduce people, but you can still attract women. What kind of constitution is that?"
Qi Chenglin knew that she was just joking with him, but when he saw the way she looked at him, he felt his whole body heat up. He confessed honestly, "It's all because I'm too good-looking."
Ruan Danchen: "…"
Wasn't it too disrespectful to say that on the street?
Unfortunately, Qi Chenglin did not deliberately lower his voice. When a passing man heard him, he tripped over a stone under his foot.
Qi Chenglin's eyes under his sunglasses didn't even blink. He just looked at Ruan Danchen and confessed sincerely, "The woman gave me a business card just now. I crumpled it into a ball and threw it away."
Ruan Danchen knew that it was the ball of paper he had thrown into the dustbin.
Looking at Qi Chenglin again, Ruan Danchen always had an illusion that if she gave him a tail, he would be able to wag it at her.
What a loyal dog!
Ruan Danchen looked at his face that was asking for credit, but he was too embarrassed to show it too obviously. He had to pretend to be calm. She couldn't help but smile, but she didn't dare to smile too much.
However, his current appearance was simply too adorable.
Ruan Danchen was wrapped in his arms, so she crossed her legs. Qi Chenglin cooperated with her very tacitly. He lowered his head and let her kiss him on the lips.
Qi Chenglin's beautiful lips curled up slightly, looking a little smug.
Qi Chenglin lowered his head and saw that she was wearing a round neck sweater, revealing a section of her collarbone. It made her slender and fair neck look empty, as if a cold wind would freeze her neck.
Qi Chenglin frowned slightly. "Why didn't you wear a scarf when you came out? Your neck is so exposed. Is it cold?"
Ruan Danchen's arms were wrapped around his narrow waist. She was wrapped tightly in his clothes, so she couldn't move or touch her neck.
Now that he mentioned it, it really seemed a little cold. She shrunk her neck and said, "I haven't noticed."
Qi Chenglin thought for a moment and said, "You don't seem to have a scarf either."
Ruan Danchen nodded. She had never thought of buying this thing. The winter in B City was quite dry and cold. The wind was bone-chilling, so she had to wear gloves.
However, she didn't have the habit of wearing gloves, so she usually put her hands in her pockets. It didn't matter if she took her hands out occasionally.
As for the scarf, sometimes she did feel cold, but she always couldn't remember to buy it. When she remembered, winter was almost over.
So she thought about it. Wasn't there only a few months in winter every year? So she couldn't be bothered to buy it.
Qi Chenglin remembered that the two of them had stood outside for a long time. He took off the leather gloves on his hands and touched Ruan Danchen's neck. It was indeed very cold.
Ruan Danchen closed her eyes comfortably. His hands were very warm from the gloves. At this moment, his dry palms were ironing her skin, and it was indescribably persuasive.
His hands were beautiful, elegant, and delicate. The thickness of his palms was just right. If it was a little thinner, he would appear unlucky, and if it was a little thicker, he would appear clumsy. Sometimes, Ruan Danchen could look at his hands in satisfaction for a long time just by looking at them.
She raised her head to look at him. From head to toe, there was not a single part of this man that was not good.
Even that part of his body was terrifyingly talented.
Thinking of this, Ruan Danchen's face turned a little red. She silently cursed herself. How did she think of that? She was really embarrassed.
Qi Chenglin didn't know what she was thinking. Why did her face suddenly turn red? But the red was very pretty.
"Let's get in the car first. It's a little cold." Qi Chenglin said. He brought Ruan Danchen to the front passenger seat and opened the door to let him in. He glanced at the window on the second floor and realized that those people had left the window after Ruan Danchen entered the car.
The corner of his mouth curled up. He got into the car and left with Ruan Danchen.
Wang Kaiyi and the others returned to their seats awkwardly. Although Ruan Danchen's boyfriend didn't raise his head, they felt that he didn't know they were peeking from here. But what was with this feeling of guilt?
Chen Libai's expression didn't look good either. He saw Ruan Danchen and her boyfriend being lovey-dovey downstairs. They seemed to be in a really loving relationship.
Moreover, her boyfriend wasn't as young and incompetent as he had thought at first. Because they weren't close and the other party was wearing sunglasses, he couldn't tell how old he was. But he had a rather steady aura. He didn't look like an ordinary person and he was driving a Mercedes-Benz.
Everyone returned to their seats. For a moment, no one said anything. They didn't know why, but they suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Hehe." Wang Kaiyi laughed awkwardly and said, "Danchen's boyfriend is too inconsiderate. Since he's already downstairs, he doesn't even come up. He doesn't care about his girlfriend's face at all. With this kind of behavior, I'm also quite suspicious of how sincere he is towards Danchen. "
"I don't know where he got that Mercedes-Benz from. He's just putting on an act," someone else said.
"That's right. If he's really capable, why didn't Danchen bring him up to introduce him to everyone? He probably can't meet people. "
The few guys looked at each other and said one after another. Chen Libai's expression relaxed a little. He agreed with what they said. When he saw Ruan Danchen's boyfriend just now, he seemed to be quite a character. He didn't feel happy. But hearing what they said, it did make some sense. One couldn't judge a person by their appearance.
"But I don't know what she's thinking. Based on what she said, the child is already so old but she hasn't married the guy yet. Isn't the guy a little irresponsible?" Chang Jingqiu said.
Just now, it was all the men who were talking. They might not have really thought that way. Most of them were comforting Chen Libai.
The female students didn't interrupt. Only Chang Jingqiu spoke first.
But hearing what Chang Jingqiu said, everyone felt that it made sense.
Wang Kaiyi nodded in agreement and frowned. "That means that the guy really doesn't have any ability. Or maybe he really does have ability but isn't serious about Danchen. He doesn't plan on marrying her."
When Chen Libai heard that, he was even more worried about Ruan Danchen.
"That's enough." Gao Xiaoyang pouted. "You guys are all men. Why are you gossiping behind people's backs like women. No matter what, it's her own life. She has the right to choose how she wants to live it. We don't know if she's doing well or not, so it's not good to come to a conclusion. I know you guys are standing on Libai's side because you guys are close to him. But you don't have to curse her and can't bear to see her doing well. Libai likes Danchen and I support him in pursuing her. It's a fair competition. There's nothing bad about that. "
The last sentence was added by Gao Xiaoyang at the last minute. She was afraid that if she said it too bluntly, it would make Chen Libai unhappy. It was all her fault. If she spoke too bluntly, it would easily offend people. She regretted it after she said it. She quickly added it.
Speaking bluntly was natural. That was why she chose to be a reporter. Even if she spoke bluntly, it could be explained as a professional habit. Even if people were unhappy, they couldn't blame her for doing business.
After all, the Chen Family was a rather influential family. As a financial reporter, she often needed to interview some big shots in the industry. She often made appointments with the secretary for a month but still couldn't get an appointment. She was scolded by the chief editor. That was why she hoped that Chen Libai could help her. Although she spoke righteously, she didn't dare to make Chen Libai lose face.
Speaking of interviews, Gao Xiaoyang really didn't like to look at Chang Jingqiu anymore. Chang Jingqiu was her colleague. Relying on her relationship with the Chang Family, she could interview as she pleased. Those big shots in the industry more or less knew the Chang Family. They had some business dealings with them. Naturally, they were happy to make things convenient for her when it came to small matters like interviews.
Therefore, no matter what interview task the higher-ups assigned to her, Chang Jingqiu could complete it well and quickly. It was difficult for Gao Xiaoyang to interview those famous big shots. But when it came to Chang Jingqiu, it became especially easy.
Therefore, Gao Xiaoyang lost out in an instant. She listened to her boss compare her with Chang Jingqiu every day. It made her extremely depressed. Just before the New Year, another interview target was snatched by Chang Jingqiu.
Those male students who spoke just now were also embarrassed by Gao Xiaoyang's words. They all looked a little awkward. In an instant, the atmosphere turned cold again.
Xia Zishan, who was sitting beside Chang Jingqiu, said to her, "I want to go to the washroom. Do you want to come?"
"Sure." Chang Jingqiu nodded. The washroom in the private room was occupied by a male student. The two of them went outside.
The two of them walked in the corridor. When there was no one around, Chang Jingqiu whispered to Xia Zishan, "Don't take what they said to heart. Those guys generally don't have high EQ. Aren't they just obsessed about being brothers? They might not really think that way. I think that Ruan Danchen has a good relationship with her boyfriend. Regardless of whether her boyfriend is capable or not, from what Ruan Danchen said today, she's not interested in Chen Libai. Moreover, her son is already so old. Even if Chen Libai wants to marry her, his family won't let him. Don't worry. "
"Thank you for helping me test the waters today," Xia Zishan said.
Xia Zishan's family was not considered a big family in B City. In the upper circle, they were at the bottom. However, Chang Jingqiu did not mind being on good terms with her. Who knows, she might be useful in the future. Moreover, it was a small favor. She did not lose out by helping her. She did not say anything to offend anyone.
