"I'm sorry, but this lady is my friend. Can you let me and my friend in?"
Su Anran looked towards the direction of the voice and saw that Gu Hanxue was smiling at her while nodding her head.
Beside her stood Shen Geng.
It was a match made in heaven for the two of them to stand together!
Su Anran felt as if her heart was pierced ruthlessly by something, she was startled for a moment, and her eyes became sore.
"No …" "There's no need to trouble yourself. Actually, we were planning to go to another restaurant!" Realizing what was going on, the corner of her mouth twitched as she spoke in a gentle tone.
"It's fine, it's fine, Shen Geng and I happened to come to this restaurant for dinner, since you guys rarely come to this kind of place, it's rare for you guys to come in, so don't waste this chance!" Gu Hanxue was still smiling impeccably, the sarcasm in her words were heard by Su Anran.
Miss Gu, this is the seat number for you and your friend, I have specially arranged the best two seats for you, I hope you two can eat happily, young miss, can you please follow us in?
The waiter politely said and made a "please" gesture towards Su Anran.
Su Anran looked at Gu Hanxue's fake smile, then looked at Shen Geng who was standing quietly behind her, she suddenly felt that he should not have come here.
Su Yiheng tugged at the corner of her clothes. Evidently, Su Yiheng wasn't the only one who felt that something wasn't right.
Miss Gu, we suddenly don't want to come to this restaurant anymore. After all, we don't have to come to this sort of place often, so we'll just give it to you and Young Master Shen.
It was unknown where Su Anran got her anger from, but she spoke coldly with a tone carrying ridicule.
Without waiting for her opponent to react, she pulled Su Yiheng and walked towards the direction they were heading in in large strides.
A small flame burned in her heart. She didn't know why she was angry, but was it because of that snob who wouldn't let them in?
Or was it because she saw Shen Geng standing together with Gu Hanxue?
Or was it because of Gu Hanxue's mocking tone?
She didn't have time to think about this. The elevator jingled and she ran inside.
In the elevator, only Su Anran and Su Yiheng were left.
"Elder sister, are you alright?" Su Yiheng could not help but ask, as Su Anran's expression was currently not looking too good.
"I'm fine." Her face turned green, and the corners of her mouth twitched, as he replied Su Yiheng with a comforting smile.
"Sis, are you jealous?" Su Yiheng frowned, he suddenly realised something. He folded his arms across his chest and looked at her, "Previously, you were so close to Brother Shen, but now, he is so close to other women …"
"What are you talking about?" Foolish child, don't speak carelessly! That is Brother Shen's fiancee! " Su Anran immediately interrupted him and denied his words.
After Su Yiheng finished listening, he did not say anymore, because he had already gotten the answer he wanted.
"Sis, actually, I feel that Big Brother Nan Yi is not bad too."
After a moment of silence, he spoke again.
"Alright, alright. Little kids shouldn't think too much about it. We can't eat seafood now, so think about what we're going to eat later!" Su Anran reprimanded, and then changed the topic, but her heart was already in a mess.
Looking at the fleeing woman, Shen Geng raised his eyebrows and his gaze darkened.
Gu Hanxue who was rejected by Su Anran, did not mind, she only shrugged and revealed a generous smile.
"Let's go!" She opened her mouth, interrupting Shen Geng who was still following Su Anran's figure. Shen Geng took his hand, and walked towards the inside of the dining hall.
This restaurant was truly well-deserved of its name, the dishes inside were excellent, the chef's culinary skills were first class, but Shen Geng had no appetite for it.
Half an hour later, Shen Geng elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin and brewed for a long time before finally speaking.
"What do you think of our engagement ceremony next week?"
This was originally a business marriage, so everyone just took what they needed. Even if there wasn't any emotional basis, it wouldn't be surprising if the engagement ceremony was held next week.
"That sounds good. After all, our marriage has been delayed for quite a while already. Plus, you seem to be quite busy previously. If you can find time to hold the engagement ceremony next week, that would be for the best." Although Gu Hanxue said it on the surface, she had a plan in her heart.
A plan between her and Shen Hang.
Shen Geng nodded slightly, "Since you have also agreed, I will have my people arrange the ceremony. What you need to do is to wait for that day to come."
"You're really considerate." Gu Hanxue lowered her eyes, and her face revealed a slight smile, which no one could see, and the sinister look that flashed past her eyes.
Su Anran never thought that she would receive a call from Shen Geng, after today's fortuitous meeting.
Back then, he had looked at her as if she was a stranger. Yet now, he had called her instead. It was really hard for people to understand what he was thinking.
After hesitating for a moment, she took a deep breath and picked up the call, asking in a stiff tone: "Boss Shen, is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'm getting engaged to Gu Hanxue." A familiar deep voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding somewhat hoarse.
For a few seconds, Su Anran's mind was blank, she did not know how to respond.
Just to tell her they were getting engaged?
Why was that?
Their engagement was something the whole world knew, but what did it have to do with her?
"Congratulations, we all know the truth. It was mentioned in the newspapers before. However, it was still … Congratulations! "
Su Anran heard her own dry voice.
That's right, what does the engagement of two heavenly beings have to do with him?
But why was there an unspeakable bitterness in her heart?
"I'm not calling for your blessing!" Hearing that, Shen Geng who was on the other side of the phone felt infuriated.
His son's father was going to be engaged to another woman, so how could she say such words of blessings so calmly?
Very well, he wanted to see her bottom line!
"That Boss Shen, you are … "Why?" Su Anran asked, puzzled.
His current relationship with Shen Geng, was not even considered a friend, yet he deliberately called him to inform him of this.
"I want you to help me plan my wedding." Although Shen Geng's tone was neither light nor heavy, it carried a sense of command, as though a king was issuing an order, which couldn't be refused.
But Su Anran still refused.
"Sorry, Boss Shen, you must be joking right? I'm just a regular employee, planning a wedding or something is not part of my job. " Su Anran tried to shirk his responsibilities.
"If I remember correctly, before you entered Lin’s, you worked for PR for close to a year. I think that you should have no problem planning a wedding, right?"
Su Anran was speechless, looks like he had already asked her men to search through her information, it was useless for her to deny it now.
However, she did not give in, "Boss Shen, you are right. Planning a wedding is not a problem for me, but I want to tell you this very clearly, I refuse to plan it for you!"
It was unknown where Su Anran got the courage from, but she spoke with a righteous tone, not leaving any leeway in his tone.
She couldn't stand it anymore, and now she had to plan their wedding?
Impossible.
This was Su Anran's instinctive reaction, and also her unshakable decision.
Shen Geng was angered, he lost his patience and spoke with a cold tone: "Su Anran, you must know, I am not asking for your opinion, I am only informing you, you do not have any choice."
"Then let me tell you, no matter what, I will not agree!"
Su Anran raised her tone, and immediately ended the call.
In the entire Nandu, the only person who dared to hang up on him, was probably a woman who did not know what was good for her.
In the five minutes after the call ended, Su Anran dumbfoundedly watched the constantly changing scenes on the television, but her eyes were still empty.
Why? Why did it have to be her?
With Nandu that many famous beautiful professional wedding planners, Shen Geng didn't look for her, but instead wanted to make a trip here to suffer?
What a joke!
Are you jealous?
She suddenly thought of what Su Yiheng had said today, and her heart thumped loudly.
Jealous? Impossible, how is this possible?
In the past when they were discussing projects together, they could still be considered as partners. But now? She and Shen Geng couldn't even be considered companions! How could she be jealous?
No, no.
A voice in his heart was hinting at her. In other words, Shen Geng was someone who had a fiancee, how could she like a man who was about to enter the marriage hall?
Su Anran's mouth was parched and her tongue was parched. She was extremely agitated in her heart as she drank a large bottle of water.
Deep in the night, lying in bed, she had to admit that all she was thinking about was what had happened just now. After thinking about it for a while, she just couldn't fall asleep.
Forget it, she had already clearly rejected him. What else could Shen Geng do to her?
Su Anran looked towards the direction of the voice and saw that Gu Hanxue was smiling at her while nodding her head.
Beside her stood Shen Geng.
It was a match made in heaven for the two of them to stand together!
Su Anran felt as if her heart was pierced ruthlessly by something, she was startled for a moment, and her eyes became sore.
