Chapter 504: Gu Ruandong Just after we parted, you think of
t she was bare-faced and wearing unattractive clothes. He was so engrossed in the kiss that she gradually forgot that she wasn't at her best.For a long time, his breath was shallow, suppressed to the...The discussion mainly revolves around compensation plans and post-relocation arrangements. It also covers risk mitigation and contingency plans in case of unforeseen circumstances or emergencies during the process.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ruandong was very professional, having thought of all the necessary questions. He didn't need to worry about anything, so he got up and walked out.
He stood up, Shutinglan stopped the discussion and looked at him. The real estate team members also stopped and looked at him, thinking he was dissatisfied, a little nervous.
"Go on," he said as he walked away.
Last night I hardly slept, and this morning Lu Yaoyao woke me up so I had a bit of a headache. Now I'm feeling a little sleepy, so I'm going back to the rest room for a quick nap after the meeting.
He hadn't fallen asleep yet when his phone rang. It was a video call from Lu Yaoyao, so he answered it without saying anything. He just watched the person in the video. She probably had just showered; her hair was half-dry and she had no makeup on. Even though the camera was very close to her face, almost touching it, her skin was flawless.
He instinctively pulled his phone a little further away from her.
"When are you going home" Lu Yaoyao asked with a smile.
"Just thinking about me already" He got up, walked to the open-air balcony outside, lit a cigarette, and asked casually. The thin smoke drifted from his lips, making him seem a bit more awake than before.
"When are you coming back" she asked again.
"What's up"
"Let's celebrate becoming neighbors!" she said, smiling at the camera with openness. Perhaps it was her confidence in her skin or maybe just her small face that wasn't afraid of the close-up, but the camera remained very near.
"Hmm." he replied.
"When are you coming back I need to prepare in advance."
"Unsure, I'm a bit busy today."
Gu Ruandong is not someone who goes home every day. Sometimes when he's busy, he sleeps at the company or at a club. If he's socializing outside, who knows where he'll end up sleeping.
Lu Yaoyao heard his answer and became a little unhappy, her joy and anger were evident on her face: "Then forget it."
< After finishing speaking, press the break video button directly. >
Gu Ruandong was disturbed and had no more sleepiness. He smoked another cigarette on the balcony before finally returning to his office after a long while.
Shu Tinglan had already finished a meeting with the real estate team and came over with her assistant to say goodbye. He was both polite and somewhat formal:
“Ms. Shu, go for it. I believe in you.”
"Okay, I'll contact you again."
Shutinglan saw that he didn't want to continue talking, so she said goodbye and left with Xiaoxin.
After Lu Yaya's new drama wrapped up, her manager, Hao Jie, didn't arrange any new work for her and let her have a good rest. In the industry, she doesn't feel much crisis awareness, whether she is popular or not, she doesn't care much. So when choosing scripts or participating in shows, she always chooses what she truly likes. If she doesn't like it, she just takes a break.
At work, I'm surrounded by a lively team of colleagues. But when I'm relaxing at home, I give the staff paid leave, so I end up feeling a bit lonely when I'm on my own.
Let's meet, but I have class. I tried to set something up with Lu Kuò, but he's actually working for once.
That's why she called Gu Ruandong, celebrating the fact that they were now neighbors was a lie, wanting someone to talk to and pass the time was the truth. She just didn't expect that her enthusiasm would be met with Gu Ruandong's refusal
She was curious to know what time he would get home.
So starting from dusk, she kept holding her phone and glancing at the monitor outside her door every now and then, waiting to see when Gu Ruandong would come back. The monitor remained motionless; she even suspected there might be something wrong with it, so she frequently went out to check in person.
>Not until after 7 o'clock in the evening, finally, in the monitor, his figure walked out of the elevator lobby.
She hurriedly put down her phone, pretending to go out. She opened the door and walked past Gu Ruandong, pretending not to see him, and walked straight past him towards the elevator, looking proud.
Gu Ruandong also pretended not to see her and went to his own door to press the fingerprint lock.
Lu Yaoyao only heard the sound of a door creaking open behind her, he actually didn't even acknowledge her Not even a greeting before going straight home
It angered her suddenly to turn around.
As she turned back, she saw that Gu Ruandong hadn't gone home. Instead, he was standing calmly at her doorstep, smiling lightly at her, as if he had expected her to turn around.
Lu Yaoyao was being suspected of having ulterior motives, feeling a little guilty and unwilling to speak.
Gu Ruandong looked down at her feet, pretending to be surprised: "Wearing slippers outside"
Lu Yaoyao looked down, and sure enough, she was still wearing her cartoon slippers. But she remained proud: "It's none of your business!"
After that, he walked toward his front door. He hadn't really intended to go out anyway.
As I neared the door, my wrist was suddenly grabbed. A familiar, faint scent of tobacco wafted from behind me. It was Gu Ruandong.
“Isn't it time to celebrate becoming new neighbors”
Lu Yaoyao's gloomy mood instantly vanished, and she put on a composed air: "Didn't you say you were busy"
"I'm just not sure when I'll be back home."
Humph, it wasn't true at all. His expression in the video today was clearly one of refusal, but something must have changed his mind. Lu Yaoyao isn't someone who holds grudges, since the goal has been achieved, the process doesn't matter.
So she immediately beamed and asked, "How do you want to celebrate"
"Have you eaten" he asked.
"None," she replied pitifully, "I've been at home all day and barely eaten anything but some fruit."
"How about we eat out New neighbor!"
"Okay. Wait for me, I'll go change my clothes." Saying that, she excitedly and skipfully went back home to change her clothes.
Gu Ruandong was originally standing at her doorstep, waiting. He thought he'd just change his clothes, it would only take a few minutes.
Result, ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, half an hour passed wouldn't he be lying to him
"Lu Yaoyao" he walked into her house and called out.
The house was too large, with an echo, but there was no sign of anyone. Only a faint sound came from the distant wardrobe.
"Yao Yao" He called out again.
Lu Yao yao finally heard, a happy echo came from the cloakroom: "Here I come, here I come."
As soon as the walk-in closet door swung open, Gu Ruandong was speechless. On the dressing table in the middle of the room, there were piles of clothes, obviously just taken from the closet. Her makeup was meticulously done, and her hair had been styled with care.
He leaned against the door, a hint of a smile playing on his lips, "Dinner with me This feels awfully formal."
Lu YaoYao was carrying a carefully selected bag and smiling brightly: "It's not because I'm going out to eat with you, but it's the self-cultivation of a female star."
Gu Ruandong drove himself tonight, not calling a driver. Lu Yaoyao sat in the passenger seat, waiting for the red light to turn green, she continued to touch up her makeup on her phone, determined to show her most beautiful side.
Gu Ruandong didn't look at her. His long fingers gripped the steering wheel, tapping it lightly, on and off. Their interaction was both strange and strangely familiar. quiet that Gu Ruandong felt helpless. Before going to sleep that night, Gu Ruandong hugged her from behind and finally spoke."Big Jin left last night."Lu Yao froze, the name felt familiar, but he cou...
