C14 Did She Come Back?

Under the not-so-bright light, Xu was able to see her face clearly.

He didn't know why, but this was the first time he quietly watched her sleep. The anger that had been building up in his heart was actually slowly calming down.

She was really thin.

Xu Lin tried hard to recall the look on Lu Er's face three years ago. For the first time, he felt that he seemed a little cruel.

The current Lu Er was like an orphan suffering from autism, shielding the whole world, yet always craving the little charity that he was about to offer.

She had been so beautiful before, but now, her beauty had been ruined by him.

Logically speaking, shouldn't he be happy? Originally, he had married her in order to take revenge on Luer. He had finally turned her into someone who suffered all day long. But why was his heart so bitter?

Xu Lin quietly closed the door and left.

Ruhr was awoken by the nightmare. She didn't know why, but she subconsciously looked around.

The house was still empty and empty.

What was he waiting for? Ruhr laughed at himself.

"..."

The next day, Ruhr simply packed himself up and went to the company.

The moment she walked into the hall, the crowd that was chatting and waiting for the elevator immediately quietened down. They all cast their gazes towards her.

Ruhr did not mind.

She had long since gotten used to this kind of situation, and her face and dignity had been disappearing bit by bit during these three years.

"Look, isn't this that Lu Er?"

"Yeah, did you hear? The CEO personally brought her into the CEO's office."

"What do you know? I heard it myself that day, and the CEO's office sent her up to prevent this Lu Er from seducing Vice President Mo. You don't know yet, but Vice President Mo's fiancee is CEO Xu's cousin, so of course you have to watch her closely."

"If that's the case, then this Lu Er is really despicable. No wonder he has such a foxy appearance."

Luer listened to these rumors in a stiff manner, but his heart didn't waver in the slightest.

In Xu Lin's eyes, wasn't she always that kind of existence? Little San, that b * tch.

Ruhr took out his pass card and directly went to the elevator, isolating the sound outside the door.

She didn't need to live up to the praise of others. She only needed a bit of acknowledgement from Xu Ruo.

The elevator slowly ascended, and the door was opened with a jingling sound. Lu Er lowered his head and was about to walk out, but he actually bumped into an embrace.

"Lu Er?" Mo Ran called out to her in surprise, "Are you alright? Where did you go yesterday? You didn't even answer my phone call."

Mo Ran looked at her worriedly. Ever since the day before Lu Er was brought up by Xu Lin, he hadn't seen her again. Yesterday, he even heard that Lu Er didn't come to work, so Mo Ran went up to find Xu Lin to throw a tantrum.

But Xu Lin would always have that ten thousand year iceberg face, treating him as air.

"I'm fine." Ruhr looked up at the floor below and realized that he had pressed down on Mo Ran's floor out of habit.

"Vice President, I'll be going up first." After saying that, Lu Er turned around to enter the elevator.

"Wait." Mo Ran pressed down on the door of the elevator, "Luer, about my engagement, I can explain, you must not misunderstand."

Lu Er smiled at Mo Ran, "Director Mo, you don't need to explain it to me. Treat your fiancée well."

Luer's unperturbed attitude caused Mo Ran to be slightly stunned.

Mo Ran dejectedly let go of his hand.

The elevator doors slowly closed, cutting them off from each other.

Mo Ran looked at the closed elevator door, took a deep breath and clenched his fist.

Ruhr knocked on Xu Lin's door.

Before he could open his mouth, the door was automatically opened. Lu Er slightly stepped forward and walked in.

"Boss Xu." Seeing Xu Lin sitting in his office chair, Lu Er greeted him politely.

Xu Lin glanced at her, then looked down at the information in his hands.

Seeing that Xu Lin did not seem like he wanted to speak with him, Lu Er stood by the door, not knowing what to do.

"Why are you standing there?" When Xu Lin saw that she had been quiet all this time, he raised his head in displeasure.

Ruhr blinked.

"Being my personal assistant means that you have to stay close to me. I said that you can leave now, only then can you leave." Xu Lin put down what he was doing and leaned back on the sofa, his arms wrapped around his chest.

Stay close to him? Lu Er opened his eyes wide, which meant that he would be able to see Xu Lin in the future?

"Do whatever I tell you to do. No objections are allowed." Xu Lin said coldly, his eyes fixed on Lu Er's face.

"Got it." Ruhr replied in a low voice.

"Now, get me a cup of coffee." Xu Lin said to her.

Ruhr immediately put down his bag and picked up the glass that had fallen on the table.

Luhr knew that Xu was fond of coffee, so she had taught herself to make it four years ago.

At that time, Li Qingqing was still around. Li Qingqing liked to see her make coffee, saying that Lu Li was like someone who had walked out of a painting. At that time, they always liked to see each other smile, because Lu's classes were so tense, so they would often ask Li Qingqing for help in sending Lu Lin a cup of coffee after they finished brewing it.

Lu Er skillfully picked out the coffee beans and carefully grinded them. She knew Xu Lin's taste. After brewing the coffee, she added some caramel candy and fresh milk.

Three years had passed, and it had never occurred to him that he would ever have the chance to make more coffee in his life.

She habitually picked out a sunflower at the top of the coffee cup.

Just like four years ago, she would always light sunflowers on his coffee.

Ruhr carefully placed the cup of coffee on Xu Lin's table. Xu Lin glanced at it indifferently, but after seeing the pattern on the coffee, he instantly stopped.

Sunflower... Liqing?

Xu Lin's heart instantly began to churn.

He looked up at the silent Ruhr standing to one side and narrowed his eyes.

He picked up the cup and took a small sip. A familiar taste entered his mouth and teeth. Xu Lin had the illusion for a moment, and he felt like he was back to four years ago.

At that time, Li Qingqing always came to bring him coffee. They sat in the library, and when she opened the cup, the sunflower looked exactly the same as it did now.

The patterns could be imitated, but what was the point of the taste?

Xu Lin put down his cup, then quickly stood up and walked over to Lu Er.

"Has she returned? Have you seen her? " Xu Lin grabbed onto Lu Er's shoulder tightly, full of anticipation.

Ruhr was frightened by Xu Lin's sudden action.

"Xu Lin, what are you talking about?" Who was he talking about?

Seeing the look in Lu Er's eyes, Xu Lin stopped his hand and stared at her.

He longed to see in her eyes something she was hiding from him, but she was not.

Ruhr's eyes were as clear as ever, and inside his eyes was only fear and helplessness.

"Scram!" Xu Lin viciously pushed Lu Er.

Ruhr was heavily pushed to the ground.
