Chapter 1461: Appropriate distance

“I know,” Yuan Zhou said softly.

“Then, I’ll come back later.” Yin ya said with a little embarrassment.

“Alright,” he said. After a nod, Yuan Zhou opened the partition and prepared to see Yin ya off.

“Ta ta ta.” Yin ya walked outside. Just when she was about to step out of the door, Yuan Zhou suddenly said,””I haven’t had lunch yet. Do you want to join me?”

“Ah?” Yin ya turned her head and looked at Yuan Zhou in surprise.

Looking at Yin ya’s pretty face, Yuan Zhou’s ears couldn’t help turning red. He steadied his voice and said,”I made some soup for lunch. Do you want to join me?”

“Sure, I was in a hurry at noon and didn’t have much to eat.” Seeing Yuan Zhou’s apprehensive manner, Yin ya’s heart softened and she agreed with a light tone.

“Then let’s go to the backyard to eat.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and quickly opened the partition before returning to the kitchen.

“It’s very rare for boss Yuan to treat us. I definitely have to be there. ” Yin ya said with a smile.

“I think it’s rare too. The listeners will get a share!”

He didn’t say it out loud, but someone was thinking that secretly. That’s right. Only Wu Hai would think that way. Nobody knew when he was lying beside the door.

Like a rabbit, he would pop his head out from time to time to peep at the situation inside. According to Wu Hai’s previous character, when there was food, he would definitely pounce on it like a vicious dog.

However, he didn’t do that this time. The main reason was that he didn’t want to disturb Yuan Zhou and Yin ya’s alone time.

Even though Yin ya came early and Wu Hai came on time, the Black Beast still felt that it was better to stay calm.

“No, you have to control yourself. You are already a mature Wu Hai,”

Wu Hai pulled her right hand with his left hand and then pulled her left hand with his right hand to prevent her from entering. He really had a talent for hiding. Such a big movement, yet he didn’t make any sound.

Of course … If Yuan Zhou wasn’t so focused on Yin ya, he wouldn’t be able to tell with his hearing.

“This compass, is he stupid? Now that we’re holding hands, the next step is to kiss. ”

“If I were you, my child would have been a soy sauce by now.” Wu Hai encouraged Yuan Zhou in his heart.

When Yin ya left, Wu Hai bent his waist and hid quietly. Then, he leaned back against the door.

Then, Yuan Zhou noticed it.

“Shameless Wu, you’re playing the ghost?” Yuan Zhou said.

“No, I’m here to drink the soup. You promised me.” Wu Hai stood up and said solemnly while stroking his small mustaches.

Yuan Zhou was speechless.

It was really Yuan Zhou who agreed to it himself due to some unspeakable reasons.

“You’re too enthusiastic. ” Yuan Zhou couldn’t help saying.

“Of course, I’ll definitely be more active when I eat your cooking.” Wu Hai nodded his head.

“Then when did you come?” Yuan Zhou asked.

Wu Hai rolled his eyes and then said,”I just got here.”

Hearing that, Yuan Zhou nodded his head and gave the remaining bowl of soup to Wu Hai.

Time flew by and it was time for dinner. Of course, Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing didn’t come.

Ling Hong was driving to the subsidiary while ruan Xiaoqing was still struggling with a pile of reports.

It was getting dark early in Chengdu in the winter. It was just about 6 O’ clock when the sky began to turn dark. However, it was almost the new year, and overtime had become the company’s norm.

Therefore, most of the people in the subsidiary company were still at their desks. Even the vice president’s office was still lit up, and the Mediterranean manager was working hard.

Ruan Xiaoqing flipped through a large stack of documents with one hand and recorded with the other. She lowered her head slightly, revealing her fair and slender neck. The light shone softly on her face, making her look gentle and serious.

This was the scene that Ling Hong saw when he stepped into the subsidiary company. Such a scene made Ling Hong’s heart skip a beat. He couldn’t help but hold the black thermos cup tightly in his hand.

“Ta ta ta.” Ling Hong walked forward quickly, wanting to say hello to ruan Xiaoqing.

However, before he could walk halfway, Ling Hong saw ruan Xiaoqing suddenly bend down slightly. The hand that was flipping through the materials suddenly stopped and the hand that was holding the pen also clenched the ballpoint pen in his hand tightly. His fingertips turned white.

Ling Hong frowned and took a few more steps forward. However, after only two or three steps, Ling Hong saw that ruan Xiaoqing’s white forehead was instantly covered with sweat. Under the light, her gentle and beautiful face also became pale.

“Pancreatic cancer is accompanied by the middle and upper abdomen, left ribs, and back. It can also radiate to the back, chest, and right scapula. Abdominal pain can be reflected in dull pain, severe tenderness, gnawing pain, and so on. Most of them are persistent and can be aggravated after a meal. ” The words that he had once consulted with experts and professors sounded in Ling Hong’s ears.

Ling Hong immediately understood that ruan Xiaoqing must have had a relapse and was in unbearable pain. That was why she had such a condition.

“What should I do?” Ling Hong was a little flustered instantly.

However, when he saw ruan Xiaoqing trying her best to hold on and pursing her lips stubbornly, Ling Hong suddenly understood something. He quickened his pace and came to ruan Xiaoqing.

“Let’s go to my office. It’s better there.” Ling Hong suggested as calmly as he could and didn’t even look at ruan Xiaoqing’s forehead that was wet with sweat.

“Yes.” Ruan Xiaoqing gritted her teeth and got up with the help of the table.

“I’ll carry the documents. This is the money I’ve earned this year. ” Ling Hong said with a relaxed tone. Then, he carried the documents and stood behind ruan Xiaoqing, blocking the sight of those employees.

Ruan Xiaoqing wanted to smile, but she failed. She could only nod and walk toward the general manager’s office.

It wasn’t far from the general manager’s office, only a few meters away, but ruan Xiaoqing’s steps were light and difficult to walk.

Holding the documents in his arms, Ling Hong followed her with a serious expression. He didn’t make a sound, nor did he stare at ruan Xiaoqing. The distance between them was closer than usual.

The distance between Ling Hong and ruan Xiaoqing was less than an arm’s length. Ling Hong could easily hold her shoulder in this position.

When they arrived at the door, Ling Hong walked up quickly and opened the door directly to let ruan Xiaoqing in.

Ruan Xiaoqing took two steps forward and sat on the single chair opposite the General Manager’s desk.

“I’ll leave the information here. I’ll go outside and ask about the situation. ” While saying that, Ling Hong put down the documents and walked out of the door quickly. Then, he closed the door considerately.

Ling Hong moved so fast that ruan Xiaoqing didn’t even have time to say anything before he left.

“Bang!” The light sound of the door closing rang in ruan Xiaoqing’s ears.

At this time, ruan Xiaoqing followed her heart’s wishes. She bent down, covered her ribs with her hands, and curled up in this small single chair.

Leaning against the cold chair, ruan Xiaoqing bit her lip. Sweat dripped from her forehead, but she didn’t make a sound.

However, when she turned her head, ruan Xiaoqing saw the black thermos cup that Ling Hong often brought with him recently. It was placed in a place where she could reach it with just one hand.

What else was there to be confused about? this was prepared by Ling Hong for her. Ruan Xiaoqing couldn’t help but reveal a smile on her pale face.

“Thank you,” he said. Ruan Xiaoqing whispered in her heart.

As for Ling Hong, who said he was going out to find the manager, he just stood at the door blankly.
