The Female Partner Who Wears a Book Steals the Halo of the Tyrant

Chapter 55: I’M Engaged (Daxiu, You Think So, I’Ll Find One Soon…

“Xinghui, how did you know I was here?” Lian Xi looked at Cao Xinghui unexpectedly.

Cao Xinghui has a handsome smile and a warm voice: “I asked your assistant after I returned to the company.”

After joining Lianxi in the past two days, Cao Xinghui quickly learned about Lanci’s internal situation. Today, during the day, he went to meet a few old friends and classmates in China and learned about the industry situation from each other.

After finishing the work, I was going to go back to the company to pick up the eldest lady from get off work. I learned that she had gone out, and when I asked Zhao Xiaoting, I knew that she came to Jiang’s house, so Cao Xinghui drove over to pick her up.

Just as Lian Xi and Cao Xinghui were talking, Donna and Zhu Yuanyuan kept winking their eyes behind them.

A few people stood up very discerningly, and said to Lian Xi with a smile: “Mr. Lian, since Director Cao has come to pick you up, we will go back first.”

Lian Xi nodded: “Alright, then you can go first.”

Cao Xinghui smiled and nodded to the three of them, showing a very thoughtful manner.

Donna took Zhu Yuanyuan and Shen Li, and the three quickly walked away with small steps to the intersection 50 meters away from President Lian and Director Cao, and finally they could speak freely.

Zhu Yuanyuan exclaimed, “Oh my God, Director Cao looks exactly like President Lian!”

Donna seems to have discovered something extraordinary: “Have you noticed, Director Cao’s eyes when looking at President Lian are so spoiled?”

Shen Li hesitated: “Director Cao is called Miss Lian, don’t they know each other before?”

Donna affirmed: “Miss Lian will be called Miss Lian. They should all be family members like Aunt Qin. Isn’t Director Cao acquainted with President Lian before?”

Zhu Yuanyuan screeched: “Miss Qianjin and the returnee loyal dog? What’s the matter?”

A few people over there were excited and gossip. Here Cao Xinghui went around to the co-pilot gentlemanly, helped Lian Xi open the car door, smiled and bent over and stretched out his hand: “Get in the car, miss.”

Lian Xi raised his eyebrows, but he was disrespectful.

When she got into the car, Cao Xinghui stretched out his palm and carefully guarded the position above her head above the car door.

This kind of subconscious action was often used by Cao Xinghui when he went out with the eldest lady.

But since he went abroad, he has almost never opened the car door for a woman in such detail and covered his head.

The young lady’s hair had a faint fragrance, soft and smooth. When she lowered her head and brushed in front of him, Cao Xinghui was stunned subconsciously.

This is not the fragrance that the eldest lady likes to use.

He remembered that she didn’t like this kind of rose fragrance the most before, she only liked the strong and rich rose fragrance.

Lian Xi didn’t notice anything.

After she got into the car, Cao Xinghui went around the car and got into the car from the other side.

“What did you gain today?” Lian Xi asked while wearing his seat belt.

Cao Xinghui’s expression quickly returned to normal. He started the car and said, “I met with a few old classmates today to see if I can pull two people over to help me. Now we are mainly poor R&D personnel.”

Lian Xi was only focused on work, and nodded: “Well, you see the arrangement, anyway, the platform’s affairs are entirely up to you, and I have absolute trust in your ability.”

Cao Xinghui looked at her silently, a little helpless in his eyes.

Why is the current eldest lady more and more old-fashioned, how old is she? But at 23, he was 28, so he could be regarded as her brother, but she in turn spoke to him in an old-fashioned tone.

Lian Xi asked, “Where are we going?”

Cao Xinghui coughed in a low voice, and thought for a moment: “I just heard from an old classmate that the little wonton shop on Wutong Street was still open. Do you want to eat it? If you want to eat, I’ll take you to see if it’s not the same as before. Old taste?”

What little wontons?

Lian Xi had no idea what he was talking about.

However, she couldn’t show her secrets in front of the original owner’s childhood sweetheart like Cao Xinghui, so she smiled and said, “Okay, let’s try it.”

Hearing Lian Xi’s words, Cao Xinghui’s eyes showed some joyful light, he accelerated the speed of the car a bit, turned the intersection in front of him, and drove towards the Wutong Road in his memory.

Lian Xi was a little worried.

If every day Cao Xinghui had a surprise attack from the past, wouldn’t she be exhausted to deal with it?

It seems that there is still a way to stop him from doing this.

Half an hour later, Cao Xinghui drove the car to the Wutong Road he said.

Lian Xi followed him out of the car.

Look at this, dumbfounded!

On both sides of the street are lush and lush sycamore trees, under the tree on the left is a row of red brick walls, inside the wall are several solemn teaching buildings, and on the right is a row of bustling shops that sell everything. Yes, they are mainly small restaurants.

It’s actually a snack street at the back door of a university.

On the snack street, the young couples holding hands are basically college students, all of them youthful and sweet.

At this time, it was just in the evening, and the sky was dizzy with the red sunset.

The students sat in groups of three or five in the snack bar chatting and thinking about the future.

And Lian Xi stood here in the capable attire of a female president, which was very out of place.

“here is…?”

Cao Xinghui’s eyes were full of nostalgia, and he said, “This is Wutong Road, the snack street behind the East Gate of A. Miss. Forgot?”

Lian Xi’s mouth twitched: “Uh, I didn’t forget.”

Don’t forget the fart!

She didn’t even know there was such a place.

Cao Xinghui stood on the side of the road and looked at it, and then smiled at Lian Xi: “This Wutong Street has indeed changed a lot, but there are still many shops. The wonton shop should be right in front, let’s go there.”

Lianxi: “…”

Forget it, come here, let’s eat a bowl of wontons.

After reading through the book for so long, Lian Xi has never eaten such down-to-earth food, except for the barbecue he and Huo Qi had at a roadside stall last time.

The two walked into the wonton shop with an area of only a dozen square meters. Cao Xinghui found the innermost position and carefully wiped the table and bench twice with a tissue before saying to Lian Xi, “Miss, take a seat.”

“Boss, come with two bowls of Chaos, one with more pepper, and no chopped green onion at all.” Cao Xinghui said to the very familiar boss.

Lian Xi raised an eyebrow and said nothing.

She doesn’t like too much pepper, nor does she like noodle soup without chopped green onion, so which of the two bowls Cao Xinghui ordered is for her?

The wontons came quickly.

Cao Xinghui handed the bowl without chopped green onion to Lian Xi: “Miss, try it quickly, and see if it still doesn’t taste the way you liked before.”

Lian Xi took a spoon and scooped a thin-skinned and tender Chaos into his mouth. Well, to be honest, the taste is really good, but the chopped green onion is missing, and I always feel that the soul is lacking.

“I remember that when I first entered University A, one day I went home and saw that this store was doing well, so I bought a small wonton for the eldest lady to take back. After the eldest lady ate it, she liked it and asked me every day. I’ll help you buy a copy of this little wonton, and the boss is not allowed to put chopped green onion.” Cao Xinghui recalled softly.

The half wonton in Lian Xi’s mouth was stuck, she paused, put down the spoon, and greeted the proprietress: “Please add some chopped green onion for me.”

The boss responded immediately: “Good guest, come right away.”

Cao Xinghui also put down the spoon and looked at Lian Xi in surprise.

Lian Xi smiled at him: “Xinghui, people can change, I already like to eat green onion now.”

Cao Xinghui stared at Lian Xi quietly for a moment, then looked down at the wontons in the bowl, and chuckled after a while: “Yes, the lady is no longer the old lady.”

The eldest lady has really changed a lot.

When he came back this time, the eldest lady gave him the feeling that, except for the face, the person was still the same person, and everything else had changed.

Her dressing preferences, eating tastes, even her tone of voice, and even her personality and thoughts have undergone earth-shaking changes.

This change made him feel a sense of strangeness, but also an indescribable natural feeling.

just like…

It seems that the eldest lady should have been so wise and detached, noble and calm, instead of being unreasonable and domineering like before.

Cao Xinghui couldn’t tell what he was thinking for a while. He felt that the current eldest lady was very good, so he always had a feeling… He re-acquainted with her feeling.

Today’s eldest lady treats him as a friend, a partner, or a boss and subordinate, but there is no unreasonable harassment of him based on her identity.

Cao Xinghui should have felt relieved, but for some reason, looking at the young lady who has become excellent and attractive, she feels a little lost.

It was his fault back then. After giving up on the eldest miss, he should not leave her and go abroad.

Now that the eldest lady has gotten better, when he comes back, he finds that he has drifted away from her.

On the way home, Cao Xinghui became a little silent.

Like I want to say something, but I don’t know where to start.

Lian Xi didn’t know Cao Xinghui’s inner change, and was still there for fear that he couldn’t let go of the past, and didn’t want him to think wildly.

Cao Xinghui and Duan Chu have grown up with the original female partner since childhood. If he is not careful, he thinks that he still has some old feelings for him, it will be bad.

So along the way, Lian Xi kept actively looking for topics to talk about.

“By the way, Xinghui, have you ever had a girlfriend abroad?”

Cao Xinghui sighed silently and forced a smile: “No.”

Lian Xi persevered: “Then why don’t you hand in one? You are already twenty-eight this year, and your boss is not too young. Let’s talk about one. Butler Cao must have wanted to hug his grandson for a long time.”

Cao Xinghui glanced at Lian Xi helplessly: “I don’t want to get married so early now.”

Lian Xi immediately persuaded: “Love|career will not be delayed, you find a suitable person to talk to, wait for two or three years, and you can consider getting married when you are 30 years old.”

Cao Xinghui’s tone carried a bit of resentment: “Miss, do you think that I should find a woman to marry soon?”

“Uh…” Seeing that he seemed a little unhappy, Lian Xi hurriedly said, “Not really, I don’t care about you.”

Cao Xinghui held the steering wheel, and pointedly said: “The eldest lady hasn’t found a boyfriend yet, why would I look for it first.”

Lian Xi thought to himself, why are you so stubborn.

I can’t be with you! Your eldest lady is gone!

Die this heart!

So, in order to make Cao Xinghui give up early, Lian Xi broke down and said, “Ah, that, maybe you don’t know, but I’m already engaged.”

“What?!” Cao Xinghui slammed on the brakes and looked back at Lian Xi in amazement.

“Who is it?” Cao Xinghui stared at Lian Xi and asked.

Lian Xi’s expression was flat: “Oh, it’s the Huo family son.”

“Master Huo…” Cao Xinghui muttered.

Lian Xi responded casually: “Well, you better drive quickly, the cars behind are honking their horns to urge.”

Cao Xinghui took a deep breath and held the steering wheel mechanically. He didn’t even know how he drove the car back to the Lianjia villa.

When Lian Xi saw his unrepentant look, he began to worry about whether his dose of medicine was too cruel.

Fortunately, after Cao Xinghui got out of the car, the color returned to normal, and Lian Xi felt relieved.

But unexpectedly, she just walked into the gate of the villa.

Butler Cao said from the door: “The eldest miss is back, there are guests at home, and the master is entertaining them.”

Lian Xi asked casually, “Guest? Who?”

Butler Cao said, “It’s the son of the Huo family.”

Lianxi: “…”

Cao Xinghui, whose face changed suddenly from the back: “…”
