Become a one-time character in a comic

Bai Ruan sent a message to Yu Xiaoan, asking her if she had time after get off work. Yu Xiaoan glanced at her work and replied, "I have a lot of work today, probably until seven."

Bairuan said she could wait.

After get off work, Bai Ruan sat in the lobby on the first floor, playing with her mobile phone while waiting for Yu Xiaoan.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in front of her. She looked up and saw that it was Gu Sheng. She sat down and asked with a smile, "What can I do for you, Mr. Gu?"

Gu Sheng looked down at her expressionlessly and just stood in front of her, shrouding her in his shadow.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

"Yeah, Mr. Gu is also waiting for someone?"

Gu Sheng looked at her and said, "Yeah, I've been waiting."

"Has Mr. Gu waited?"

At this time, Gu Sheng's mouth corners slightly raised and he smiled: "I don't know, but I saw her, does that count as waiting for her?"

Bai Ruan looked into Gu Sheng's eyes. Through Gu Sheng's eyes, Bai Ruan saw her own appearance, and only her. Bai Ruan smiled lightly: "Maybe you just saw her."

The last bit of smile on Gu Sheng’s face disappeared: “That means we didn’t wait,” and after saying that, Gu Sheng walked away.

Bai Ruan played with her phone for a few seconds and couldn't help but look back at the direction Gu Sheng left. Gu Sheng didn't look back at her. Bai Ruan felt a little disappointed. She retracted her gaze and continued playing with her phone.

Just after she turned her head, Gu Sheng looked back and saw Bai Ruan still sitting there with his head down playing with his mobile phone.

There was an unconcealable disappointment in his eyes, he pursed his lips and walked away.

Soon after, Yu Xiaoan arrived at the lobby on the first floor, and Bai Ruan immediately came to greet him: "Are you off work?"

Yu Xiaoan smiled and nodded: "Well, will you wait for me here after six o'clock?"

"No, I was just chatting with someone." At this time, Bairuan's phone rang. Yu Xiaoan accidentally saw the words "brother" displayed on Bairuan's phone. Bairuan said awkwardly, "I'm answering a call nearby. Wait for me."

"it is good."

Bai Ruan went to the side to make a phone call. From what he heard, Bai Ying asked Bai Ruan why she hadn't returned home yet. Bai Ruan said that she was with friends and would be back later.

Yu Xiaoan didn't want to listen to what she said on the phone, so she went to sit down next to the flower bed. When she took out her cell phone, she saw the message from Gu Mingxing.

The text message contained Gu Sheng's complaints, complaining about why he had few capable subordinates and why he had to handle everything. Now he couldn't even make a good PPT presentation.

Yu Xiaoan covered her mouth and laughed out loud, then clicked on her phone to reply him: Are you very busy recently?

Gu Mingxing, who was far away in another city, saw a notification pop up on his phone and immediately opened it to check. It was a letter from Yu Xiaoan. His smile never relaxed as he picked up the phone and started replying.

Gu Mingxing's secretary reminded the reporter who was about to cry to report faster, because Gu Mingxing was in a good mood now, otherwise he would look unhappy later.

The reporter understood and immediately sped up his report.

After Gu Mingxing replied, he put down his phone, supported his chin with both hands, and his face immediately fell again, as if he was dissatisfied with every word of the report.

The reporter was about to cry again, thinking, who on earth can make this CEO Gu smile! Please show up and save him, no, save the heart of the entire company!!!

Every time the people in the management see Gu Mingxing, they feel palpitations, because he is really scary. Although he looks young, his aura is too strong, and just one look at him is enough to make people feel scared. If it weren't for the high salary and good benefits, the people in the management would probably run away.

And the person who can make Gu Mingxing smile is now having dinner with Bai Ruan.

Bai Ruan apologized to Yu Xiaoan: "I thought about what you said this afternoon. I think you are right. I have reached a dead end because of my concern for him. I lost myself for a while."

Yu Xiaoan looked at her calmly and said, "You are not wrong. You are you and you have your own considerations. I shouldn't speak from the perspective of a bystander. I haven't experienced your story and don't know what you think. I'm sorry."

"No, no, no," Bai Ruan waved her hands quickly, then lowered her head: "I should thank you for saying that to me. No one has ever said that to me since I was a child. Thank you..."

Yu Xiaoan smiled.

Bai Ruan asked embarrassedly: "It seems a bit late to ask now, but I don't seem to know your name yet. Can you tell me your name?"

Yu Xiaoan lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "Yu Xiaoan, Yu in Yusheng, Xiao in big and small, An in safety."

Bairuan smiled and stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, my name is Bairuan, Bai means white and Ruan means soft."

The two smiled at each other, and then started chatting about other things. This self-introduction marked their formal acquaintance.

Bai Ruan was peeling the crayfish while asking, "When I answered the phone after get off work, I saw you looking at your phone and smiling. What were you looking at at that time?"

"What?" Yu Xiaoan didn't react at once. She thought carefully and wanted to know what she was asking. She smiled but didn't answer, but Bai Ruan knew what the smile on her face meant.

It is a smile full of little happiness, belonging to only one person. That smile is very special. When I think of that person, I can't help but raise the corners of my mouth. My mind is full of that person. Although my mind does not have clear memories and the beauty between that person, I am just happy.

Bairuan smiled slyly: "Oh? Is it the person you like?"

Yu Xiaoan didn't shy away from admitting, "Yes, I like him."

Although Yu Xiaoan admitted it generously, Bai Ruan saw that her ears turned red and her eyes were evasive with a shy expression.

Yu Xiaoan understood what Bairuan's mean expression meant, and immediately hit back, "Don't you also have someone you like?"

"No," Bai Ruan shrank back after saying that, not daring to look her in the eye: "I didn't."

"Really?" Yu Xiaoan would not let her go: "What's the situation between you and Gu Sheng?" She propped up her chin and looked at Bai Ruan: "He has never taken food from other people's plates, and before you came, he had never been to the staff restaurant."

Bai Ruan pretended to be calm: "No, I don't like it. Don't talk about me. Tell me the story of you and the person you like. How did you meet him?"

Recalling the scene at that time, there was nothing special. She just saw someone fall down and helped him out of kindness. Unexpectedly, he recognized her later. After that, he was always able to find her, and later they became deskmates...

When I think back carefully, there seem to be a lot of beautiful things, but they are all faint beauties. However, this is enough.

Yu Xiaoan smiled happily, and Bai Ruan was also infected by her smile. She couldn't help but think of Gu Sheng, but she couldn't help feeling disappointed when she thought of Gu Sheng's recent attitude and actions towards her.

Bai Ruan knew that Gu Sheng still liked her, and she also still liked him, but their relationship was no longer as pure as it was in their student days. Everything had changed after she had been away for a few years.

She understood that she was wrong in leaving without saying goodbye. At that time, she did not have the courage to tell Gu Sheng that she was going to study abroad, nor did she have the courage to say goodbye to him. This was her inner struggle and torment.

When a person knows that he has done something wrong and knows the right thing to do, it is because he has gone through an inner struggle. Most of the time, he fails to convince himself, and then he chooses to escape, choosing the most cowardly approach. Then, in order to alleviate his inner torment, he finds other reasons to convince himself and relieve his inner torment.

Bai Ruan didn't know what Gu Sheng was thinking. After a few years, she no longer understood him as before.

Thinking of this, she took a big sip of the drink in the cup.

Gu Sheng, who was at home, raised his glass and took a big sip of wine because of the answer Bai Ruan gave him today.
