2744 Love Comes Like The Southern Breeze (262)

Qiao Ruoxi did not want to have anything to do with Mu Yunli in private, mainly because she did not want Feng Yunan to know about it. If Feng Yunan knew about it, he would definitely fly into a rage.

“I don’t believe you don’t even have ten minutes to spare. Let me go in and look for you!”

“Forget it, wait for me!”

Qiao Ruoxi was at her wit’s end. She naturally did not want Mu Yunli to come to the store to look for her. He was the boss of Simu Jewelry, and coming to Di Ruiling Jewelry store to look for her would inevitably cause criticism.

The best way was for her to meet him and explain it to him face to face.

Qiao Ruoxi came out from Di Ruiling and scanned her surroundings. She quickly found Mu Yunli’s Bentley and walked up to it. She gently knocked on the window.

The black glass was rolled do’, revealing a beautiful face. The man was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and the corners of his eyes were slightly exposed, showing a hint of unrestrainedness.

He took off his sunglasses and leaned lazily on the car window. “Miss, it’s so hard to meet you! Does Princess matter more than me?”

“I’m sorry. It’s really inconvenient for me to meet you at work.”

Qiao Ruoxi explained politely.

Mu Yunli smiled handsomely and said, “I saw you being the manager. You have the demeanor of a leader. However, I feel that you are too forceful when handling things. You’ll end up offending others easily.”

Qiao Ruoxi had her own understanding of this. “Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Mu. I just feel that if I’m afraid of the consequences of my actions, I might as well not do it.”

“Well said.”

Mu Yunli gave her a thumbs up. He admired her courage and boldness very much. At the same time, he turned his head to indicate to her, “Get in!”

“No, Mr. Mu. If there’s nothing else, I have to go back to the store.”

Qiao Ruoxi politely declined.

Mu Yunli had already expected that she would reject him. He got out of the car and said to her face to face, “Actually, I came to look for you because of the incident at the party last time. Today, I came specially to ask for forgiveness. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight. Miss, do you mind?”

“You’re too kind, Mr. Mu. I’ve long forgotten about the party. You don’t have to pay for dinner.”

Qiao Ruoxi’s face was reflected on the clean window. She stood there quietly like an elegant lotus. She was just an ordinary salesperson, but her every move carried a noble aura that could not be ignored. It was pleasing to the eyes.

Mu Yunli looked at her for a while and said teasingly, “Miss, do you know that the more you reject me, the more I want to ask you out? Don’t you know that men like it when women play hard to get?”

“I’m not playing hard to get.”

Qiao Ruoxi did not know how to explain it so that he would not misunderstand.

“I know. You’re the most special one.”

With his hands in his pockets, he leaned over slightly to look into her eyes and said very seriously, “Now that everyone knows that you’re my rumored girlfriend, I have to satisfy their curiosity, right? So! You have to go somewhere with me tonight.”

“Mr. Mu, I really don’t want any more scandals. I have other plans tonight. I’m sorry.”

Whenever Qiao Ruoxi thought of the fight she had with Feng Yunan because of Mu Yunli, her hairs would stand on end. Now that her relationship with Feng Yunan had finally eased up a little, she really didn’t want to complicate things any further.

“I’m just asking you to act for me. You don’t even want to act with me? Looks like I have to propose to you tomorrow and make it real.”

Mu Yunli was like a clingy little boy when he was being insistent. He would not leave without getting what he wanted.

“No! Don’t do that!” Qiao Ruoxi surrendered. “Fine, I promise you. I’ll go with you tonight.”

Since she had agreed to accompany him, she had no choice but to postpone her plans to go to the Feng family’s craft workshop.

“Good girl!”

Mu Yunli stopped pestering her. He turned around and took out a cloth bag from the car and handed it to her. Qiao Ruoxi subconsciously caught it. Before she could even see what it was, the man had already bent over the car and smiled. “I’ll pick you up after work tonight.”

The Bentley slid out like water and quickly disappeared from her sight. Qiao Ruoxi could only carry the cloth bag back to the flagship store.

A few of her colleagues whom she was more familiar with, saw her coming back and asked her what it was.

Qiao Ruoxi placed it on the table and opened it. There were a few lunch boxes.

“Wow, boss, you ordered takeout! What is it?”

Her colleague Xiao Li cried out in surprise as he helped to take out the boxes. There were four boxes in total, and each box contained four different dishes.

The plating was exquisite, and the food was delicious and appetizing.

Another colleague saw the logo on the bag and said in surprise, “Oh my god, it’s Tiffany’s takeout. Manager, you’re so good to us! You’re treating us to Tiffany’s. Wow, we’re so lucky.”

Everyone thought that it was Qiao Ruoxi who bought the food, so they did not stand on ceremony and prepared to help wipe out the food.

Before they started eating, Xiao Li helped Qiao Ruoxi keep one and handed it to her. “Manager, you should eat too!”

“Thank you.”

Qiao Ruoxi took the box and looked at the food in it. She felt a little bad. As the saying goes, one would feel indebted when taking favors from others. Now that she had accepted the lunchboxes sent by Mu Yunli, what if he asked for more next time they met?

At night, Qiao Ruoxi finished her handover and got off work. Mu Yunli’s car was parked at the place where it had stopped during the day. Qiao Ruoxi went up to it and the driver opened the door for her respectfully.

Qiao Ruoxi looked down at the man in the back seat and nodded as a greeting. Then she got into the car and Mu Yunli ordered the driver to drive.

After leaving with Mu Yunli, Qiao Ruoxi felt a little worried. After thinking about it for a while, she sent Feng Yunan a message, telling him that she was going shopping with Li Yixue for dinner and would be back later.

She really did not dare to say that she had gone out with Mu Yunli. After sending the message, Qiao Ruoxi silently prayed in her heart that Feng Yunan would not find out.

“Miss, are you okay? Why aren’t you talking?” Mu Yunli asked when he realized that she had been silent.

“Nothing. Where are we going tonight?” Qiao Ruoxi asked as she put her phone away.

“You’ll know when we get there.”

Mu Yunli first asked the driver to send them to the most upscale styling house in Yun Cheng. He made a new look for Qiao Ruoxi, got her to change out of her professional clothes and into the latest apple green dress. The ends of her long hair were slightly curled, and coupled with exquisite light makeup, Qiao Ruoxi’s entire temperament was elegant and refined.

Mu Yunli was very satisfied and made an inviting gesture. “My beautiful lady, please!”

Qiao Ruoxi followed him out of the studio and got back into the car. The driver drove them to the entrance of Yin Zun.
