C642 She Took the Initiative to See Him
He seemed to have instructed. So when the receptionist saw her, she smiled and said: "Miss Lieh, Director Luo said that you can go to his office at any time when you arrive."
Lieh Xiaoruan nodded. "Okay, thank you."
She was very familiar with the way. When she saw her colleagues, she smiled and nodded at them.
Everyone seemed to be fine, which made her gradually feel at ease.
It seemed that he really only suffered minor injuries?
Lieh Xiaoruan came to Luo Tianqi's office door and knocked lightly.
A familiar male voice came from inside, "Come in."
She walked in and saw that there was a scab on Luo Tianqi's left hand and there were no other wounds on his body.
He only nodded slightly when he saw her. "Xiaoruan, take a seat first. I need to take care of an emergency email."
He called her 'Xiaoruan' again.
Lieh Xiaoruan was slightly surprised and did not think much about it. She once again sized Luo Tianqi up.
There really did not seem to be anything wrong with him. Other than the fact that he lost weight because of gastroenteritis previously, there were no other abnormalities.
Today, he was wearing a white shirt, a dark tie, and black pants. He looked exactly the same as when she worked in his company.
He became serious and frowned slightly. His eyes locked onto the screen, and the sound of keyboard tapping could be heard clearly in the room.
Luo Tianqi worked for about 20 minutes before he turned around and said to Lieh Xiaoruan, "Xiaoruan, have you had dinner? I'll treat you."
Lieh Xiaoruan shook her head. "It's fine, okay."
Luo Tianqi heard her and stood up.
However, he did not know if it was because he had been sitting for a long time, but his movements paused for a moment. Then, he turned his head and said, "Wait for me. You should drink some water first."
After he said that, he slowly walked to the closet behind and took his coat.
He was wearing a dark grey coat today. He took a plaid scarf and matched it with her navy blue coat. It was quite harmonious.
"Let's go." Luo Tianqi said and took Lieh Xiaoruan to the elevator.
At this moment, Lieh Xiaoruan finally let go of the doubt in her heart.
So, he should only have his hand injured, right? Oh, other than the slight abrasion on the side of his ear, there were also traces of scab falling off.
Luo Tianqi did not drive. Instead, he took Lieh Xiaoruan to the pedestrian street opposite the company.
"A private restaurant here tastes pretty good." Luo Tianqi smiled. "I had gastroenteritis before, so now I eat it lightly."
Lieh Xiaoruan nodded and looked at the expression on Luo Tianqi's face. She kept feeling that Luo Tianqi's expression was not bad. There seemed to be something wrong with it. However, she did not realize it.
The two of them sat down in the private restaurant. Luo Tianqi ordered the dishes and handed them to Lieh Xiaoruan. "See if there is anything else you like?"
Lieh Xiaoruan ordered a few more desserts and gave the menu to the waiter.
"Why did you think of coming to find me today?" Luo Tianqi started the conversation first.
Lieh Xiaoruan stopped breathing and looked up at him.
His gaze quietly fell on her face. He did not seem to have much emotion on his entire person.
Lieh Xiaoruan's heart immediately began to beat the drum of retreating.
The person who was injured that day must be him, right?
And when he went to her neighborhood, he naturally went to find her.
But he didn't mention it now. He also seemed to be somewhat distant, because when he was injured, she didn't appear, and it had been so long, and she didn't greet him?
Or was it that even earlier, when he was hospitalized for gastroenteritis, he did not know that she actually went to see him?
A chill slowly spread in Lieh Xiaoruan's heart. She paused for a moment, but in the end, she was not someone who liked to hold back everything, so she directly asked. "That day, did you get hurt in our neighborhood?"
Luo Tianqi. A smile slowly appeared on Luo Tianqi's face, but it did not reach his eyes. "En, you saw that my left hand was injured, but it's completely fine now."
After saying that, he even moved the fingers of his left hand to indicate that he had completely recovered.
Lieh Xiaoruan saw this and pursed her lips. She pursed her lips and explained, "Sorry, I did not know that you were injured. After that night, I went on a business trip and just came back."
"It's alright" Luo Tianqi smiled. "It's not a big deal. There's no need to specially visit me."
At this moment, Lieh Xiaoruan was almost certain that Luo Tianqi must be angry because she did not see him.
Perhaps, he felt that when he met her in the hospital that day, she did not express anything when he said he had gastroenteritis. He should feel that she had no feelings for him anymore, right?
It was just that the trust between them was actually so faint?
They were suspicious of each other. She felt that he only owed her because of her previous pregnancy and Qin's project. And he felt that she actually no longer cared about him after all these years.
The dejection in her heart slowly swallowed the enthusiasm that had just arrived. Those worries gradually dissipated when she saw that he was safe and sound. In the end, there was only a sigh left.
Perhaps, they might not be good people for each other.
Perhaps they would be attracted to each other, but it was easy to get along with each other when they were in love.
The taste of this private dish was indeed quite good. The two of them ate while chatting occasionally. However, they had a tacit understanding that they would definitely not talk about feelings.
In the end, Luo Tianqi picked up the drink and touched Lieh Xiaoruan's drink. "Xiaoruan, I heard you did well at Mr Ye's company. Congratulations!"
Lieh Xiaoruan smiled. "Congratulations on your company getting better and better too!"
Luo Tianqi looked at his watch and said, "Have you finished eating? I will go and pay the bill."
"I'll treat you!" Lieh Xiaoruan said.
Luo Tianqi called the waiter over and handed his card over. "There is no password."
After saying that, he turned around and said to Lieh Xiaoruan. "Your salary is not much now. When you are promoted in the future, please treat me!"
His tone was natural, as if everything that had happened between them in the past had turned into an ordinary greeting between friends.
Lieh Xiaoruan's hand that was placed on her knees quietly clenched into a fist.
So, this should be the outcome between them?
The waiter brought the card over. Luo Tianqi stood up and put on his coat. "Xiaoruan, are you driving?"
"Yes, I am. It is downstairs at your company." Lieh Xiaoruan said and walked out with Luo Tianqi.
For some reason, she felt that the man beside her was walking a little slowly.
The two of them reached the exit of the pedestrian street. Luo Tianqi sent Lieh Xiaoruan to the entrance of the company's underground parking lot. He picked up his phone and called the driver.
He hung up the phone and said, "Xiaoruan, Then I won't send you off. Let's meet again another day."
Lieh Xiaoruan nodded and took the elevator to the parking lot alone.
Luo Tianqi watched her disappear. Just as he was about to move forward, a ball rolled down the stairs beside his feet.
"Ah, my ball!" A four or five-year-old boy ran over quickly. "Uncle, can you help me pick up the ball?"
Luo Tianqi moved his legs, but did not walk down the stairs.
On the other side, the little boy ran over in a hurry. The adults behind him also said anxiously, "Little ball, be careful, don't fall!"
When the adults passed by Luo Tianqi, they frowned. It was as if they were talking to themselves, but also as if they were complaining, "Such a young person, not even willing to help the child pick up a ball. What a waste of such a good skin!"
