From classmates to lovers, apart from being more intimate, the relationship between An Rui and Zhou Li had not changed much.
He was as gentle and attentive as ever, the role model of a good boyfriend, making her unable to find any flaws.
Apart from being too righteous.
They had been dating for nearly a month. He would only kiss her if she flirted with him first.
At most, they would hold hands and hug.
An Rui often felt that high school relationships were very pure.
It was not that this was not good, but she doubted her charm in front of him.
Because he did not seem to have a strong desire for her.
Seeing An Rui sighing, Xiaohe sat beside her and asked, “Sister Ruirui, what’s wrong? Have you been too busy with work recently?”
“Not really.” An Rui was filming a shampoo advertisement. Her hair was a little wet and she was wearing a bathrobe during the intermission. “Are you thinking if I’m not charming enough?”
“Sister Ruirui, don’t doubt yourself. I think you’re charming enough!”
An Rui wanted to say something, but the director called her.
Taking off her bathrobe, An Rui was wearing a white shirt and a black corset inside. She was slender and graceful. When she was in the water, she poked her head out and her long hair swayed gently. She looked fresh and beautiful.
Xiaohe took several photos.
After An Rui was done, Xiaohe sent the photo to An Rui.
“Sister Ruirui, even a girl like me thinks you’re beautiful.”
An Rui was definitely the prettiest in the entertainment industry without makeup. Her skin was fair and flawless. Without makeup, she would look especially pure and fresh.
An Rui looked at the photos Xiao He had taken and sent one of them out.
After Zhou Li finished his work in the morning, he heard his phone ring and took a look.
An Rui had sent a photo.
The wet white shirt clung tightly to her slender body, her waist could be vaguely seen. Her long wet hair fell over her slender shoulders, her face was not even the size of a palm and her skin was so fair under the sun.
Zhou Li pursed his lips and his eyes on the photo darkened.
He replied to An Rui’s message. “Are you done?”
An Rui waited for a while and when she heard these words, she pouted.
An Rui: “I’m done and ready to eat. Other than asking this, do you have anything else to say?”
Zhou Li: “The temperature is a little low today. I asked Xiaohe to make some ginger tea for you.”
An Rui was speechless.
Zhou Li: “Your girlfriend is very beautiful.”
An Rui: “Hmph, it’s too late to praise him.”
Zhou Li smiled and was about to reply when a deep male voice sounded.
“Senior Zhou.”
Zhou Li looked up at the office door and Shen Mingxiu, who was dressed in black, came over.
Zhou Li put down his phone and nodded at Shen Mingxiu with a gentle expression. “Why are you free to come over today? Are you feeling unwell?”
Shen Mingxiu sat opposite of the desk and Zhou Li poured him a glass of water.
“My daughter has a fever and I brought her to the hospital to take a look.” Shen Mingxiu looked at Zhou Li’s handsome face. As he grew older and more knowledgeable, Zhou Li’s aura and charm were already showing. Shen Mingxiu stared at him for a few seconds and smirked. “My mother is taking her for an IV drip now.”
Zhou Li nodded. “Have you eaten lunch? If not, I’ll treat you.”
“Yes.”
Shen Mingxiu put his elbow on the desk and looked into Zhou Li’s eyes. “Didn’t I say that I would introduce a girlfriend to you at Brother Yang’s engagement party?”
Without waiting for Zhou Li to say anything, Shen Mingxiu took out his phone and opened a photo in WeChat.
“How about this? She’s the daughter of my old client and is now a lawyer. I told her about your situation and she said that we can meet to find out.”
Zhou Li did not look at the photo of the woman on Shen Mingxiu’s WeChat. He stared into Shen Mingxiu’s eyes and said gently, “Old Shen, to be honest, I already have a girlfriend.”
He had a girlfriend?
Shen Mingxiu narrowed his eyes and smiled. “I’m afraid you don’t like this person and found an excuse to brush me off, right? It’s alright, if you don’t like this type, I’ll help you look around.”
“Old Shen, I’m really pregnant.”
Shen Mingxiu pursed his lips, feeling a little panicked.
“Really? If there’s a chance, bring it out and let me see.”
Zhou Li nodded. “Yes.”
Shen Mingxiu seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile, “I’m sure someone who can make Senior Zhou like her must be a top student.”
Shen Mingxiu leaned back against the chair and sighed slightly. “When I get Little Ruirui back, the four of us can have a meal together. My treat.”
Zhou Li was slightly stunned.
“To be honest, my daughter really likes Ruirui. Last month, Ruirui brought her to eat KFC and she couldn’t forget about it.” Shen Mingxiu’s expression was unreadable. “In high school, Ruirui was loyal to me and couldn’t stand other boys in her eyes. I have the deepest impression of her. One time, I went to an internet cafe with Qi Yuan and Li Lei. She was afraid that I would be hungry and went to Luo Ji to queue for my favorite breakfast before dawn.”
“Later, I found out that she queued for two hours before she could buy it. I even joked at that time and called her a little fool. She replied with a smile and said that she was willing to be a little fool when she saw me eating happily.”
“The feelings from when we were young are the purest without any impurities.” Shen Mingxiu sighed. “I still can’t forget her. I think she’s like me.”
Zhou Li knew that An Rui had queued up to buy breakfast for him.
From his house to school, he happened to pass by Luo Ji’s breakfast shop. He was the first to go to school every day and that morning, he was surprisingly late.
Because he had looked at An Rui for as long as she had queued there.
An Rui sent breakfast to Shen Mingxiu, who was coming out of the internet cafe. He looked at them playing and laughing and felt an indescribable sadness.
It was undoubtedly painful to have a crush on someone who had a boy she liked!
But he had never thought of ruining them, and the pain had become his motivation to move forward and work hard.
At least when he stood in front of her one day, he would have some achievements and let her see his existence.
Shen Mingxiu saw that Zhou Li had his eyes lowered and was thinking about something. He put his hands on the desk and stood up. “Senior Zhou, I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll go and see if Le Le is done with her injection.”
Zhou Li stood up and sent Shen Mingxiu out.
….
An Rui received a last-minute notice that the shampoo advertisement would be filmed indoors tonight.
An Rui had originally agreed to have dinner with Zhou Li.
After An Rui sent a message to Zhou Li, she waited for nearly an hour before she received his reply. “I’m fine.”
An Rui felt that there was something wrong with Zhou Li’s mood.
She wanted to call him, but the director came over.
An Rui could only focus on her work.
