After a busy morning, Gu Canyang followed Jiang Yiyang to a meeting and went out, and it was noon in the blink of an eye.

After coming back from outside, as soon as she sat down in her chair, she first received a call from Zhang Xiaoya, asking her if she wanted to go to the cafeteria to eat, and then she received a call from Xu Jiaxing.

She let out a tired breath and answered, "Hello."

"Did you take a lunch break?" Xu Jiaxing asked her with a gentle voice and a slight smile.

Gu Canyang said: "Well, I just took a lunch break."

"Then you go downstairs? I'll wait for you at the door of your company." Xu Jiaxing said.

"Ah?" Gu Canyang didn't expect him to come to the company and was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Xu Jiaxing asked with a slight smile: "I want to have dinner with you at noon, but I don't know if you have the time."

Gu Canyang was very tired this morning and really didn't want to move, but he made up his mind to make it clear to him last night and considered having a meal together at noon because he didn't want to delay it.

She said: "Okay then, let's have lunch together and wait for me for a while."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Xu Jiaxing said happily and hung up the phone.

Gu Canyang simply packed up and took the elevator downstairs.

As soon as her front foot left, Qiao Yu's back foot came. Looking at the empty work station, he couldn't help but frown.

When Gu Canyang came out of the company, he saw Xu Jiaxing's car and him standing outside the car.

Seeing her, Xu Jiaxing waved to her, and when she came closer, he opened the passenger door for her.

"Thank you." Gu Canyang said and got into the car.

Xu Jiaxing trotted into the cab and drove away.

Gu Canyang said: "Just have a simple bite at noon."

Xu Jiaxing smiled and said, "The restaurant I booked is not far away. It's a pretty good private restaurant."

"Oh, that's pretty good." Gu Canyang said politely.

Zhang Xiaoya sent her a WeChat message at this time: "Yangyang, who do you suddenly have an appointment with?"

"Xu Jiaxing." Gu Canyang messaged her back, "I'll go back after eating."

"It's okay, Mr. Xu." Zhang Xiaoya sent a smirk, "Which restaurant did you go to?"

"I don't know, he said it's not far from the company." Gu Canyang glanced at the street outside, "It's on Zhongxing Road."

"Oh, I won't interrupt your date. We'll talk about it when you come back."

Gu Canyang put away his mobile phone. At this time, the car also drove to the entrance of the restaurant. The two got out of the car and entered the restaurant.

Xu Jiaxing pulled out the chair for her like a gentleman. Gu Canyang felt a little uncomfortable and nodded slightly.

"Canyang, look at what you're eating." He looked at the menu and said to her.

Gu Canyang said: "I can eat anything, as long as it's simple."

Xu Jiaxing did not hesitate and ordered the dishes on his own. The two of them ordered four dishes and two portions of rice.

While waiting for the food, Xu Jiaxing looked at her lovingly and asked with concern: "Are you tired from work? Can you handle it?"

Gu Canyang said: "When I first entered the workplace, everything was groping forward, and so far it's okay."

"Take your time and get familiar with it." Xu Jiaxing said.

"How are you getting along with your colleagues?" he asked again.

"My secretary to the general manager, of course everything is pretty good."

"That's true." Xu Jiaxing said with a self-deprecating smile.

Gu Canyang nodded and turned her gaze to the window again, feeling like an awkward conversation, which made her feel powerless.

Xu Jiaxing said: "By the way, next month is the anniversary of our alma mater. Can you go back?"

"I also received the invitation letter." Gu Canyang withdrew his gaze and said, "If nothing goes wrong at work, I should go back."

Xu Jiaxing said with a smile: "I called our teacher Liu that day, and he became a grandfather."

"Really?" Gu Canyang replied emotionlessly, "You studied well when you were in school, and you were close to Teacher Liu."

She and Zhang Xiaoya are both transparent, and they don't have a deep relationship with their class teacher.

"In the past few years, I have been abroad, and every time there is a Chinese New Year or a holiday, I will send a blessing text message to our teacher." Xu Jiaxing continued, "He still remembers you and said that you left abroad a little early."

Gu Canyang nodded perfunctorily, not wanting to talk about this topic and not knowing what to say. However, fortunately, the food arrived quickly, ending his topic.

"Try this, their signature dish." Xu Jiaxing gave her a piece of fish and said to her.

"Okay." Gu Canyang agreed, "You can eat it, you don't have to take care of me."

Xu Jiaxing said: "I like to take care of you, and I am also happy to see you eating."

Gu Canyang did not dare to look up at Xu Jiaxing, but looking at the goosebumps on her arms, she confirmed again that she and him could not go any further than being classmates and friends.

She took a few more mouthfuls thoughtfully, then put down her chopsticks and said, "Xu Jiaxing, I'm full."

"Are you full?" Xu Jiaxing looked at the half bowl of rice left and said, "Eat more."

Gu Canyang shook his head, took a sip of water, and then said to him: "Xu Jiaxing, I have something to say to you."

Xu Jiaxing lowered his eyes and his expression suddenly became serious, "Canyang, did I do something wrong?"

Gu Canyang said: "It's not your fault, it's my problem."

"Xu Jiaxing, I think we should maintain the relationship of classmates and ordinary friends. I am very grateful that you like me. However, I feel reluctant to do emotional things. What I want is that feeling, do you understand?"

Xu Jiaxing looked up at her, "What feeling do you want?"

Gu Canyang thought for a while and said, "It feels like admiration. I hope my significant other is like my brother-in-law."

Age and experience are indeed Xu Jiaxing's shortcomings, so naturally he can't feel admiration in front of Gu Canyang.

"Xu Jiaxing, I'm sorry. I promised you, but I regretted it in the end. I'm sorry." Gu Canyang apologized sincerely, "I'm done. Thank you for inviting me to dinner, but I think it's better for us to be AA. "

After she finished speaking, she transferred half of the meal money to him.

Xu Jiaxing listened to the WeChat notification, took a deep breath, and asked her in a consultative tone: "Canyang, I admit that I am not strong enough now to give you the sense of admiration you want. However, everything is accumulated over time. Yes, can you give me some time?"

Gu Canyang said: "Xu Jiaxing, this is not a matter of time, it is a matter of feeling. In fact, your aura is also very strong now, but you give me the same feeling as my boss."

"Then let me ask you, is admiration love?" Xu Jiaxing asked a bit aggressively.

Gu Canyang thought for a moment and said: "Of course the feeling of admiration is not love. I admire my brother-in-law, but I don't love him. I respect him. The feeling of admiration I am talking about is the heartbeat caused by the feeling of admiration. The charm exuded by that person attracted me and fascinated me.”

Xu Jiaxing looked at her intently for a few seconds and then asked, "Canyang, do you have someone you like?"
