Chapter 10, The Art of Indirect Pursuit (Part 2)
In the future, she will not主动地 approach Xuan Xiao; instead, she will make Xuan Xiao come to her step by step
Thank you, I have no appetite
Does Chi Xiaoying love Xuan Xiao? At least on the surface, it is not apparent. Xuan Xiao has been on business trips with her multiple times, and she rarely initiates phone calls to Chi Xiaoying. Instead, whenever Xuan Xiao arrives at the construction site, he will inform her of his whereabouts.
She did not wear any makeup today, presenting her natural face as a twenty-eight-year-old woman, with slight forehead lines and fine crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. Her complexion appeared sallow, and she looked quite haggard, resembling a withered stem that has suffered significant blows.
Could it be that Chi Xiaoying was a vegetarian nun in her previous life, bringing with her a sense of purity and detachment into this life?
Which song is this? Yan Nannan couldn't help but feel a bit flustered
In contrast to Bai Yuan and Xuan Xiao's estrangement, he is affable, extroverted, can sing, possesses a great sense of humor, and is particularly adept at enlivening the atmosphere. He is the center of attention wherever he goes and is very popular among girls
Upon receiving his letter, she opened it and realized it was addressed to Chi Xiaoying, but she pretended not to know. That evening, she deliberately dressed up beautifully and arrived at the meeting place mentioned in the letter
There is a secret that she has never shared with anyone, known only to her and Bai Yuan through an unspoken understanding. When she first entered university, the person Bai Yuan initially had his eye on was Chi Xiaoying. He asked a girl from their class to deliver a love letter, which he was too shy to sign with his name. However, the girl made a mistake and delivered the letter to her instead.
This scene fell entirely into Chi Xiaoying's eyes
"Hmm, not bad." Yan Nannan smiled slightly, having also passed through the age of twenty-four or twenty-five, she understood those little tricks of the heart, "Everything is going smoothly, work is good, and my mood is even better"
When dealing with Xuan Xiao, one should not approach directly, but rather take a roundabout way, advancing slowly and steadily
She was not fully equipped, and there was still a layer of sourness in her heart. When she truly touched upon the painful spot, she cried uncontrollably
She turned back with Xuan Xiao and suddenly hugged Xuan Xiao, saying: "Thank you for listening to me. I feel much better now. I will not do anything foolish in the future"
Ning Yi was momentarily choked and said in a flustered manner: "Let me tell you, don't be too complacent too soon. Others are in a loving marriage, you... don't be too shameless"
After hanging up the phone, Yan Nannan fell into a cold war. Chi Xiaoying had clearly seen her with Xuan Xiao just now, so why was she still able to act as if nothing had happened? Logically, she should either not answer the phone or berate herself, but she shouldn't be this calm!
She hurriedly apologized for her foolishness last night, saying that she had truly lost her mind, possibly provoked by the matter of her divorce from Bai Yuan, which caused her to act so shamelessly
Chi Xiaoying's voice sounded calm and unperturbed, "Let's do it tomorrow. I have a severe cold, and I am already home. I want to take a nap."
Xiaoying, I apologize for just now; I was busy and missed your call. Where are you? Let's go eat the seafood pizza you love together
She impatiently hung up the phone, leaving Ning Yi on the other end fuming with a twisted nose and crooked mouth
She rolled her eyes a few times and took out her phone
After much effort to win Xu Xiao's favor, we have finally reached this point; she cannot let it all go to waste
Xuan Xiao shook her head, bit her lip, and remained motionless, leaning on the steering wheel. After starting the car again, the situation improved a little
As soon as she entered the school, she heard about Bai Yuan's great reputation from her fellow townsfolk, and she inadvertently paid him a bit more attention.
Xuan Xiao really came to the construction site, and she felt so proud inside; this proves that he cares about her
Last night, after being rejected by Xuan Xiao, she pleaded with him not to be too heartless, hoping to meet again. Upon returning home, she immediately regretted it
This is a matter from long ago, like the dew on the grass blades, which has been evaporated by the sunlight without a trace
Chi Xiaoying called Xuan Xiao, and she was so happy that she wanted to scream out loud
The phone rang, and when she looked, it was Chi Xiaoying. Feeling guilty, she pressed the button to hang up. When it rang again, she reluctantly answered it. As she looked up, she suddenly caught sight of Chi Xiaoying standing among the reeds.
Of course, it is indeed good; Director Xuan specifically went for Manager Yan. Ning Yi scoffed, "However, it seems that Director Xuan is not the only one who went, right"
"Manager Yan, did you have a happy day today?" Ning Yi asked in a sarcastic tone.
Is that so? I hadn't noticed. However, do these have anything to do with you?
If Xuan Xiao proposes divorce to Chi Xiao Ying, will Chi Xiao Ying be indifferent to it
She showed a face full of shame, and as she spoke, she unexpectedly began to cry. Xuan Xiao had no choice but to lead her away to another place
Then take a good rest, drink more water, and see you tomorrow
By the time Xuanxiao thought of pushing her away, she had already run off
Ning Yi is indeed young and lacks composure
Xuan Xiao was conversing with the executives while glancing at her
After knowing her for so many years, she still cannot see through Chi Xiaoying. Everything seems indifferent and dispensable to her, and her attitude towards matters is one of casualness, as if it is a matter of luck whether she gains or loses.
She spoke little and stood quietly to the side, refraining from interrupting. After the matter was concluded, she deliberately lagged behind. Xuan Xiao slowed her pace, waiting for her, and asked if she was alright
She just kept crying
However, Chi Xiaoying is fortunate. Without raising a hand or a leg, she has already conquered Xuan Xiao
Xuan Xiao knew that she had once contemplated suicide; of course, that was also a play she had directed and performed herself
Xuan Xiao is not Bai Yuan, such petty tricks will not work
After finishing the movie, the two became familiar with each other and went out for a late-night snack together. Yan Nannan appeared very innocent and lovely, and she was particularly gentle. With her striking looks, Bai Yuan's young heart unconsciously drifted off course
On the way back to the city, Xuan Xiao was clearly restless, nearly colliding with oncoming cars several times, which frightened Yan Nannan, prompting her to insist on taking the wheel for a while
Bai Yuan arrived early, feeling anxious. Upon seeing Yan Nannan, he was somewhat taken aback and felt embarrassed to admit that the letter was meant for Chi Xiaoying. He steeled himself and went to watch the movie with her.
Yan Nannan has not studied military strategy, but she understands tactics
He invited Yan Nannan to dinner without any formality, and Yan Nannan did not invite him either. After he escorted her to the entrance of the community, he left
Xuan Xiao still says, we are all drunk, I didn't take it to heart
Xuan Xiao comforted her in a very considerate manner
Well, see you tomorrow
Yan Nannan smiled sarcastically, thinking that Ning Yi, this little woman, merely wanted to get closer to Xuan Xiao and take care of him a bit more; in reality, it wouldn't amount to much, and she was not worried at all
She said that today she heard the news that soon, Bai Yuan has been nominated as the deputy director of the Urban Construction Bureau, and he is about to get married to the daughter of the director of the municipal government office. Without her, he is indeed climbing higher and higher.
It was indeed amusing to her that Ning Yi spoke of the affectionate relationship between Xuan Xiao and her husband
She did not, still walking while sighing, revealing a very helpless fragility
This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
Yan Nannan walked under a large pine tree and couldn't help but laugh heartily, "Well, I am shameless, as long as you have your shame. Don't just shine the flashlight on others; what are your own intentions? Little girl, don't rely on your youth to compare with me; in front of men, you are still inexperienced. It is more important to keep an eye on your tax official."
A small failure to endure will disrupt a grand plan
As soon as Yan Nannan got off the bus, she received a call from Ning Yi
She was very flustered at that moment, but soon calmed down. Chi Xiaoying merely watched and showed no intention of coming over.
Thus, she suppressed her overwhelming longing and did not go to Xuan Xiao's studio today, but instead came to the construction site. Based on her understanding of Xuan Xiao, she must be worried that Xuan Xiao would feel embarrassed and distressed after being rejected last night.
Then I will buy it for you and send it over This is a polite expression Currently, she still appears eager to avoid making Xuan Xiao feel annoyed
