Also…
“Zheng Yan, how come I never knew that you think Yu Yuehan has so many flaws? Foul temper, aloof, and can’t coax girls… Tsk, if this is the script of a novel, he should deserve to be cuckolded right? As expected, I’m the one who’s kindhearted and stays by his side regardless.”
Zheng Yan was dumbfounded.
Nian Xiaomu’s gaze flickered between Fan Yu and Zheng Yan’s figure and a cunning look flashed past her eyes.
“I’m working now and can’t stop for too long. Since the two of you are here, why don’t you guys head to the cafe downstairs for a cup of coffee? After I’m done with the work I have in hand, we can have lunch together?”
“Sure, I’ve been so busy the past few days too. I just finished settling my work and came especially to find you to complain today. I have nothing but plenty of time, ” Zheng Yan answered readily.
Fan Yu’s gentle eyes sparkled slightly and he nodded calmly.
“Sure, you should go ahead and get back to work. Let me know what you want for lunch so that I can make a reservation.”
“I’m fine with anything, you two can decide. I’ll give you guys a call at noon. I’ll leave Zheng Yan to your care then.” Nian Xiaomu picked up Zheng Yan’s hand and pushed it into Fan Yu’s hand, then turned to run away.
Fan Yu and Zheng Yan were both taken aback and after raising their heads to smile at each other, they acted as if nothing had happened as they pulled away from each other.
Fan Yu walked in front of her in a gentlemanly attitude and went to press the elevator button first, then held the door for Zheng Yan to enter first.
Inside the enclosed space in the elevator, if there was complete silence the whole time, the atmosphere would have been very awkward.
Even time would slow down considerably.
“You know, you and Xiao Mumu…” Zheng Yan had actually wanted to break the awkwardness, but once she spoke, the atmosphere became even more awkward.
Fan Yu was extremely composed the whole time.
Not only was he gentle and polite, but he also had a sense of propriety too.
After taking a look at her, it seemed like he knew what she was going to ask and muttered lightly, “Are you interested to hear a story?”
“Huh?” Zheng Yan was taken aback, but Fan Yu smiled calmly.
“What kind of coffee do you like? A new cafe opened opposite the Mo Corporation building, do you want to try it?”
“Alright!”
Zheng Yan had never been a wishy-washy person. She had a loud and casual personality with a straightforward temperament.
Hearing Fan Yu’s invitation, she readily agreed without hesitation.
The two entered the cafe and chose a window seat which had a view of the Mo Corporation building.
After sitting down, they ordered two cups of coffee.
Once the service staff had gone, Zheng Yan started to ask Fan Yu eagerly about the story he wanted to tell her earlier.
Her instincts told her that there was gossip!
Fan Yu took a glance at her and returned a smile towards her candidness.
The coffee hadn’t been served yet, but his fingers gently touched the cup of water before him as he muttered slowly, “You should already know, Liuliu and I… or rather, Nian Xiaomu and I have known each other for many years already. Accurately speaking, I’ve been looking for her for ten years.”
“Tss!”
Upon hearing the words ‘ten years’, Zheng Yan could not help but draw in a deep breath.
When she looked at Fan Yu’s gaze, it had changed as well.
To think that she had actually believed that there was absolutely nothing going on between the two of them.
So, it was all lies!
A man who would search for a woman for ten years, how could there be nothing going on between them?
He was probably madly in love with her…
Which was probably why even though he knew that Nian Xiaomu was already with Young Master Han and they even had Xiao Liuliu, he still remained by her side?
Goodness, why wasn’t she able to meet such a devoted man like him?
