After sending David Zhang and Jin Yuan off, she cleaned up the house. Not long after, the doorbell rang again.
Before Yun Shu, who was sitting crookedly on the sofa, could move, she heard Fu Ran’s voice saying, “I’ll open the door.”
Yun Shu raised her eyes and saw that Fu Ran was wearing a formal black suit. His body was as straight as a pine. His expressionless handsome face looked a bit intimidating, but… The yellow apron he was wearing destroyed this intimidation, not to mention the apron had a civet cat with its mouth open wanting to meow. The contrast was too great, and he looked comical but also adorable.
Yun Shu thought that Fu Ran should take off his apron before opening the door. However, just when she was about to open her mouth——
“Pfft.” The person who came was Xu Hao. He tried his best to suppress it, and he couldn’t in the end. “Hahahaha….”
Yun Shu looked at Fu Ran, whose face was as black as ink, and felt a bit guilty inwardly. It’s her fault for not warning him before he opened the door…. Hahaha. She’s really not laughing at Fu Ran, but the man’s laughter is too funny.
Other than Fu Ran, the other two people were laughing. However, only one person was laughing uncontrollably, and the other was still stifling her laughter in consideration of Fu Ran.
Fu Ran… Fu Ran’s face darkened even more.
He took the bag in Xu Hao’s hand and unexpectedly still acted polite with much difficulty. “Thank you for the trouble of making this trip.”
As soon as the words were spoken, he was about to close the door.
Xu Hao reacted quickly by squeezing through the narrow crack and said, “I’m thirsty. Do you mind if I have a glass of water before I leave?”
Fu Ran was tempted to say he minded it. But it couldn’t be helped that he remembered that it was not his home. He had no choice but to turn his head to look at Yun Shu. “What do you think?”
Yun Shu blinked. She was a little surprised in her heart. Then, her eyebrows curved. She said with a smile, “The visitor is a guest. Come in and have a seat.”
Fu Ran’s hand gripped onto the door handle. The veins at the back of his hand bulged out, and his knuckles turned white.
—— He! Wants! To! Drive! Him! Away!
Xu Hao looked at Fu Ran. His smile deepened, and he winked playfully at Yun Shu. “I shall comply with your wishes~.”
But Xu Hao didn’t act blindly without thinking. He saw that the floor in the house seemed to be just mopped and clean. Fu Ran was wearing slippers, so he didn’t want to step in with his shoes on. He waved at the door to remind Fu Ran.
Fu Ran ignored his familiar movements and directly walked away. He wished he would make a mistake so he could find an excuse to get rid of him.
Xu Hao expected this. He didn’t panic at all. Instead, he chose to remove his shoes and to step on the floor with just his socks.
Fu Ran, “….”
—— Why doesn’t he have smelly feet?
Yun Shu couldn’t bear to see this. She said, “You can come in with your shoes. It’s fine.”
Fu Ran said, “Don’t care about him. It’s fine just like that. Save me the trouble later.”
Xu Hao laughed more cheerfully because he knew something.
—— Tsk. There are no signs of success, yet he is soft on the knees. In the first place, he was even reluctant to admit his mistakes. It will be great if he manages to woo her.
In the end, there was no definite result. Xu Hao wandered over to the sofa in his socks and sat down. He even said nonchalantly, “Just a glass of water. Thanks.”
Fu Ran didn’t want to pour him water, but Yun Shu would have to move if he didn’t. Therefore, he personally poured a glass of water.
Just then, Xu Hao had just finished introducing himself to Yun Shu. When he saw Fu Ran personally pouring water for him, he was immensely touched. He wiped the dry corners of his eyes. “Wow. I have no regrets in dying after being able to have a sip of water personally poured by President Fu in my lifetime.”
Fu Ran held back but couldn’t control himself and elbowed him.
Upon seeing this, Yun Shu knew that the two were on extremely good terms. She asked, “Is there any reason for Secretary Xu to visit this late?”
“Oh, I’m dropping off some clothes for him to wear tomorrow. A set of pyjamas as well as underwear.”
