C22 Back to You

"Director Si... Could it be waiting for someone? " Perhaps she could see the hesitation in his brows, Ann Ya asked doubtfully. But even after she asked, she found it laughable: There isn't anyone in this world that can make Si Guanqun wait.

"Hmm. However, it seems to have been set up. " Unexpectedly, Si Guanqun casually admitted it. The corner of his mouth slightly hooked up with the indistinct patterns of the law, making his smile surprisingly charming. He was as mature and handsome as liquid gold.

Ann Ya was slightly dazed.

Inexplicably, he felt mixed feelings deep in his heart.

"Just now, Director Si called Mr. Xu because of this missed customer?" Ann Ya actually wasn't gossiping normally. She knew that an assistant who asked about the root of a problem was annoying, but in the end, she couldn't hold it in any longer.

Si Guanqun was in a pretty good mood today, so he didn't blame her. It was still a casual word, "uh." He was self-deprecating and elegant.

Ann Ya shut her mouth, but she was already 99% sure: That person should be a woman. A woman that Si Guanqun was interested in …

Very strangely, a person's face appeared in her mind, but very quickly, Ann Ya shook her head again, throwing this ridiculous idea out of her mind.

It couldn't be Su Rui, she was just a secretary to Mo Fanya, moreover, she wasn't particularly beautiful.

Then who else?

Director Si only stayed here for three days. In these three days, besides the club once, Ann Ya followed him almost entirely. If he knew anyone, she would probably know.

While Ann Ya was lost in her thoughts, Si Guanqun had already strolled to the door. He looked at his watch to confirm that the person he was waiting for would not come. Finally, he showed a regretful expression. "Let's go."

Actually, he didn't want to force Su Rui, and he didn't want to make her retreat in such a short time. However, he truly did not have the time nor did he want to take risks. Could it be that he really lost this gamble?

The hotel staff had already delivered the luggage to the parking lot. Si Guanqun and Ann Ya went downstairs and came out from the elevator. When they passed through the lobby, Ann Ya took two steps forward and said, "I'll have the driver drive the car to the door …" Ann Ya suddenly stopped halfway through her words.

She saw someone, someone standing in front of the hotel, waiting.

Su Rui.

If it was any other time, Ann Ya would have gone out to greet Mo Fanya. But now, when Ann Ya saw Su Rui, her heart sank. She even wanted to go around her so that she wouldn't see Director Si.

However, it was already too late.

Si Guanqun also saw Su Rui at the same time.

With a happy smile on his face, he walked past Ann Ya and headed in that direction.

Ann Ya was dazed for a moment before following closely behind.

"I thought you weren't coming." When he stopped in front of her, his mutterings could be heard at the same time.

Su Rui was originally very tense and looked very businesslike. However, when she heard Si Guanqun's voice, she lost all her nervousness. His tone was very casual, making others feel relaxed for no reason.

"I have no choice but to come. "This is for you." Su Rui took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain a cold attitude. She passed a bulging paper bag in front of Si Guanqun.

"What is this?" Si Guanqun asked as he looked at the paper bag.

Just as Su Rui was about to answer, Ann Ya, who had been standing behind Si Guanqun, took a step forward and reminded her boss again, "Director Si, we are in a hurry now..." She knew that she couldn't interrupt Si Guanqun without permission, but she didn't know what was wrong with her today. Ann Ya made mistakes again and again.

This time, Si Guanqun did not let her off. He frowned slightly and glanced at Ann Ya coldly. The coldness was not obvious. If it wasn't someone who was familiar with him, it wouldn't have been noticeable at all. It was a dense cloud hidden deep within his calm eyes. Ann Ya had followed him for so long, so of course she could read his emotions.

Ann Ya did not dare to speak again. She lowered her head, blushing, but her heart was pounding. Somehow, she felt like she was a drowning person who was struggling in death's door — such a strange feeling.

A woman's intuition was truly baffling at times. She laughed at herself.

Su Rui wasn't an ignorant little girl. Hearing Ann Ya's words, she consciously said, "I know you guys still want to catch a plane, so I won't beat around the bush. This is one million yuan, it's far from enough, but …" I hope you can take it. And thank you. I owe you a great favor for what happened to Xu Shaobai. If there's anything I can be of use to you in the future, I'll do whatever I want with my life. " After saying that, Su Rui turned to leave.

Actually, she also knew that Si Guanqun definitely wouldn't have any use for her.

To him, she was as light as dust.

However, one's attitude was one's attitude, and ability was one's ability. Even if there was a heaven and earth difference in ability, she still wouldn't feel inferior in front of him.

Her promise to him was definitely not just a facade.

Si Guanqun didn't take the paper packet, but looked at her quietly, "You know, I don't want you to return it to me. Whether you agree or not, I'm willing to do those things for you, and you don't have to feel burdened. "

"Please accept it, Director Si." Su Rui insisted on asking.

Si Guanqun lowered his gaze and finally caught the paper bag in Su Rui's hand. It was heavy in currency … He smiled to himself. "A stubborn woman will have a hard time."

Su Rui remained silent.

He was telling the truth.

It was hard work for her. The person standing here was just a exhausted body. There were even more unimaginable difficulties waiting for her, but even so … Even so, please allow her to remain stubborn.

She didn't want to lose herself for the sake of a shortcut.

"But to see such a stubborn you …" Si Guanqun looked at her deeply. His dark eyes were hard to discern, "But I can't let go of her either."

Su Rui was stunned for a moment. She wanted to say something like "Hey, hey, the money and the goods are cleared, it's enough for you to stop." However, facing Si Guanqun who was oppressing her, she couldn't shout.

"However, don't worry. I won't force you." Aware of Su Rui's nervousness and the sudden estrangement, Si Guanqun smiled faintly. The strong atmospheric pressure from a moment ago disappeared simultaneously with that smile. As he passed the paper bag to Ann Ya, he asked plainly, "May I ask, where did all this money come from?"

She should not have any other channels. Si Guanqun was very clear about this.

"I borrowed it." Su Rui was adamant about it.

"Yes, friend?"

"No, it's a finance company." Su Rui obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. She turned to the side to get out of Si Guanqun's way, "Hurry up and catch up with the plane. I wish you a safe journey."

Si Guanqun didn't move. He looked at her in silence, with a deep expression on his face. It seemed a little bit... Heartache? Or angry?

In any case, Su Rui could not understand.

Finance companies were just usury loans.

What did she take as collateral?

A house? Or even more harsh conditions?

He was really pushing her too hard.
