The two of them were originally good friends, and on top of that, Li Rui had recently creatively added the label of "bosom buddy". Of course, their relationship was getting closer and closer. They could always find topics to talk about in private like this, laughing and joking around. Both of their bodies and minds were very happy, and their friendship was getting deeper and deeper as they rubbed each other's heads and ears.
While the two of them were chatting, the delicacies were served one after another. Since there were only two people eating in the private room, Li Rui put all six dishes in front of Ou Yangxin. This way, they didn't have to turn the table.
Ou Yangxin saw this scene, and her beautiful eyes were shining. She smiled and said, "You put all the dishes in front of me, can you still reach them?" Li Rui said, "Of course I can reach them. Didn't you notice that my arms are long?" Ou Yangxin laughed and patted the seat next to her, "You should sit over here."
When he sat down, Li Rui considered that although his relationship with Ou Yangxin wasn't bad, it wasn't to the point of intimacy. If he sat directly next to her, it might make her feel awkward or even disgusted. Therefore, he deliberately separated himself from her by a seat. This way, he would appear to be intimate, but at the same time, he would retain respect for her privacy. It was quite a gentleman's style.
Now that Ou Yangxin used the excuse of inconvenience to let him sit over, it indirectly showed that she had fully accepted him. However, whether she accepted him as a friend, or as a lover, or for other reasons, no one knew.
Li Rui respected female friends most of the time and didn't want to take advantage of each other. However, at the crucial moment, he wasn't a hypocrite. Hearing this, he smiled happily, got up and sat next to the beauty.
Then, the two of them drank and ate. They talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was getting closer and livelier. During this time, Li Rui put food in Ou Yangxin's bowl many times, and Ou Yangxin knew how to return the favor. Every time, she would give him a piece of food. After eating for a while, the two of them didn't eat much. They only cared about taking care of each other, which made them seem more and more like each other.
The two of them ate and drank for a while. When they were almost done, Ou Yangxin suddenly stood up and smiled at Li Rui, "I'm going to the washroom." Li Rui didn't think much and nodded happily.
After a few minutes, Ou Yangxin returned. She walked back to her seat but did not sit down. She asked, "Are you done eating?" Li Rui was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized that she was in a hurry to get back to work. He nodded and said, "I've already eaten. Don't worry about me. It's up to you today. Are you done eating?" Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "I'm also done eating. If you're done eating, why don't we … leave?" Li Rui naturally wouldn't go against her wishes, even if he really wanted to stay with her for a while longer. He stood up and said, "Alright. Ai, you're in Cao Cao's camp, but your heart is elsewhere." Ouyang Xinsa said angrily, "Aiya, I'm really busy. If I'm not busy, I can accompany you to eat and drink all night."
The two of them put on their jackets, packed their things, and walked out of the room. Li Rui asked the waiter to bring him to the front desk on the first floor to settle the bill.
The waiter was stunned and said, "Settle the bill? Sir, your table is already settled. "After saying that, he looked at Ou Yangxin, hinting that she paid the bill.
Li Rui was stunned and looked at Ou Yangxin in disbelief. At this time, he understood that she just said that she was going to the bathroom. In fact, she went down to pay the bill. Although he appreciated her kindness, he always felt that his heart was insulted by her. In addition, there was a little humiliation of being looked down by her. For a time, his heart was sour and bitter, and he was very uncomfortable. His mood took a turn and fell to the bottom.
Ou Yangxin did not know his inner feelings. Seeing him look at her, she said with a smile, "It doesn't matter who pays the bill. This meal is on me. You can treat me next time. Alright, let's go. "After saying that, she pulled him intimately.
In front of the waiter, Li Rui did not embarrass her, but also did not give her a good face. He followed her and walked to the stairs, but after that, he did not speak to her until they returned to the Shengjing Hotel's underground parking lot.
Ou Yangxin was not stupid. She had already felt the change in his attitude towards her. After parking the car, she asked tentatively, "What's wrong with you? Are you angry with me? "
Li Rui did not look at her and said expressionlessly, "Thank you for treating me to a meal, General Manager Ouyang. I will definitely treat you back another day. I won't delay your work. Goodbye." After saying that, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Ou Yangxin did not expect that he would suddenly play such a trick. She was stunned for a moment and stared blankly at him until he got into his Santana. She came back to her senses and hurriedly got out of the car to chase after him. "Li Rui, don't go. What are you doing, Li Rui …"
When she caught up with Li Rui, Li Rui had already sat in the driver's seat. He started the car and was about to drive away. Ou Yangxin was very anxious. She hurriedly waved her left hand in front of the car to signal him not to drive away. Her right hand knocked on the car window and she hurriedly shouted, "Li Rui, don't go. Stop the car. Open the window and listen to my explanation. Don't be angry …"
After hearing her words, Li Rui lowered the car window halfway, intending to listen to her explanation. However, he still did not look at her. His eyes were only looking at the road ahead.
Ou Yangxin looked at his cold face and sighed. She said, "Aiya, you are really angry. Why are you angry? I really don't understand. Isn't it just me who paid the bill? Do you have to be so angry? We are all good friends. Isn't it the same who treated you? "Li Rui said sternly," It's not the same! This meal is my treat. I told you a few days in advance. I said I would treat you, so I treated you. Why did you secretly pay the bill for me? Are you looking down on me or what? Are you afraid that I can't afford to treat you? "
The vegetable soup and drinks that he ordered tonight were all rare dishes. None of them were cheap. The reason why he ordered good dishes and ordered six dishes that were not enough for two people was because he felt that he could not repay Ou Yangxin's kindness in other aspects. Therefore, he could only express his kindness through the dishes. The total price of the meal was close to 1000 RMB. For him, a section chief, this meal would cost him half a month of his salary. However, he was willing to spend so much money. He was even willing to spend more money for Ou Yangxin. In the end, Ou Yangxin secretly paid the bill. Of course, he also knew that Ou Yangxin knew that his salary was not high. She could not bear to spend so much money to treat him to a meal. So, she paid the bill for him. Frankly speaking, she was doing it for his good. However, he still felt that his kindness was insulted by her.
When Ou Yangxin heard what he said, she felt that it was funny and helpless. However, this was the first time she saw his temper. She understood him better. She smiled bitterly and explained, "Of course not. How can our section chief Li not be able to afford to treat me to a meal? If you can't afford to treat me, you won't ask to treat me, right? Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have paid the bill secretly. I apologize to you. You are a generous person. Don't lower yourself to my level. Don't be angry, okay? " When Li Rui heard what she said, he felt a little better and said, "You are looking down on me. You don't need to explain. You don't treat me as a friend. If you really treat me as a friend, you won't do that … Hmph, you are afraid that I will know that you went to pay the bill, so you lied and said that you went to the washroom. Is this what a good friend is?"
When Ou Yangxin heard what he said, she felt wronged, "I didn't lie to you. I really went to the washroom. I went to the washroom first and then went downstairs to pay the bill. It's true. I didn't use the washroom as an excuse. I drank a lot of Baizhen Lu before, so …" Li Rui continued to pester endlessly, "Anyway, you are looking down on me. You don't treat me as a friend." Ou Yangxin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't know how to explain it. However, work was urgent and she had to go back to work immediately. Therefore, she was anxious and panicked. When Li Rui saw that she wasn't talking, he pretended to leave and said, "Forget it. Since people look down on me, it's fine if we don't be friends. I'll just leave. I don't want to be disliked." As he said that, he put his right hand into the gear. Ou Yangxin was shocked. She quickly stopped him and said angrily, "You are a man. Why are you so narrow-minded? I have already explained for so long. Why are you still unwilling to forgive me? I am doing this for your own good. I am afraid that you will spend too much money to treat me to a meal. When you go home, you won't be able to explain it to your wife. That's why I paid the bill for you … "
When she said that, Li Rui's anger immediately turned into joy. He smiled and laughed in his heart. After Ou Yangxin finished speaking, she realized that her words were a bit ambiguous. Her beautiful face turned red. Fortunately, the lighting in the underground parking lot wasn't very good. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't notice.
Li Rui turned to look at her and said with a smile, "You explained for so long and this is the only sentence that got to the point. I like hearing it the most. En, not bad. You are indeed my close friend. You are wholeheartedly thinking for me." Ou Yangxin's face turned red. Seeing that he was no longer angry, she was happy and resentful. She suddenly reached in and lightly hit his shoulder. She scolded, "You are so hateful! I am going to ignore you. "With that, she turned to leave. Li Rui's hand was quick. He raised his hand and grabbed her hand that was about to retract. Ou Yangxin was shocked. Her body jumped and froze in place. She looked at him with a red face and stuttered, "You … what are you doing? Don't mess around. Let me go. "With that, she pulled her hand back. Her beautiful eyes looked around, afraid that others would see this scene.
Li Rui didn't explain. His left hand grabbed her wrist and didn't let her go. His right hand took out his wallet and counted out ten large bills. He estimated that it would be enough to pay for the meal. Then, he folded the money and stuffed it into her left hand. Only then did he let her go. He said seriously, "Ou Yangyang, this is the only time. There will be no next time. If you do this again, don't even think about being my close friend."
