Chapter 378: Eight-pack abs (2)
Maybe it was better if Zhao Youlin did not ask, because after Li heard her question, it was like it had flipped on a switch. She pouted and started to cry loudly. “Waah! Dream guy! Dream guy! Dream guy! My dream guy! That was my dream guy! How come he has left already? Waah! I have not gotten a chance to talk to him yet. I have not gotten a chance to look at his face, which is so handsome that even the G.o.ds are jealous of him. Most importantly, I have not gotten a chance to touch his eight-pack abs. How come he has left already? Waah!”
This young girl was already feeling resentment after Zhao Youlin left her behind to deal with those repulsive old men. She had to wait until the meeting ended when she could finally rush out of the meeting room and meet with her dream guy very close for a few minutes, she did not expect that her dream guy would be nowhere to be found in the company.
In the end, she had to ask the guard at the door and find out that her dream guy had already left the company half an hour ago.
To Li, the news. .h.i.t her like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, striking this poor girl so hard.
That was the dream guy she had been looking forward to meeting with. Yet she actually missed the chance to see him. Who knew when she could see her dream guy again after she missed this chance? Her living dream guy!
Waah! She would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Looking at Li’s eyes watering and her nose running like her boyfriend had died, the corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth could not help but twitch a little. “He will come again tomorrow. You can still talk to and look at him by then, you might even get to…touch his eight-pack abs with your own hands.”
“Really?” Li’s loud cries halted abruptly and asked with surprise as her big watery eyes that had just been filled with tears widened.
Zhao Youlin was about to answer her really when they heard a familiar voice coming from behind them.
“What really? I think I just heard somebody say she wanted to talk to someone, look at someone, and wanted to touch someone’s eight-pack abs with her own hands?”
The two of them turned around at the same time. They saw the teenager who showed up on time and was walking toward them with a lunch box in his hand.
“Ran Ran? Huh? Is it noon already?” Li glanced at the watch on her wrist and said with a sense of realization.
“Yes, it is already noon.” Carrying the lunch box in his hand, Ling Ran smiled lightly and walked to Li. “You still have not answered the question I just asked. It seems that it was you who said to Ms. Zhao just now that you wanted to talk to someone, look at someone, and even touch someone’s eight-pack abs with your own hands. So who exactly is this lucky man that you have taken a fancy to?”
Ling Ran’s eyes crossed a trace of playfulness. He understandingly leaned closer to Li and asked expectantly, “Are you talking about me? I do have eight-pack abs, but I do not usually tell people about that, but since you want to touch it, I will reluctantly let you touch it a few times.”
Upon hearing that, Li gave him a disgusted glance. “Who would want to touch your abs? Even if you have abs, they are definitely not as firm and beautiful as my dream guy’s abs. I have no interest in touching your abs!”
Dream guy? Ling Ran was stunned a little. Since when did this young girl have a dream guy? Most importantly, judging by her tone, her dream guy was actually not him!
Ling Ran tried to ask about it, but only to see Li coldly grunt and look away. He had no choice but to helplessly turn his pleading eyes to Zhao Youlin.
Zhao Youlin crossed her arms and looked at him with a faint smile, obviously intending to just stand by and watch.
Ling Ran could not say anything, so he could only help himself. He picked up his delicately prepared lunch and said in a tempting manner, “Li, I specially brought you your favorite sweet and sour carp and roast chicken today. If you give me the name of your dream guy, I will give them to you, what do you say?”
“So you will not give me if I don’t tell you?” Li cast a disdainful glance at Ling Ran. “And you think you can bribe me with just sweet and sour carp and roast chicken? Do I look like the kind of person who would betray my dream guy for food? You really underestimated me!”
That man was actually more important than food in Li’s heart! Ling Ran felt highly threatened. To know that, even him was not as important as rice b.a.l.l.s with fermented wine to Li! That man actually…He actually…He was definitely his love rival! A love rival!
‘You had better not let me find out who you are, or else…’
While Ling Ran was saying that in his heart, he was thinking about how he could coax Li to tell him the ident.i.ty of his love rival.
Zhao Youlin looked at these two idiots. She really did not want to watch these two pulling off public displays of affection, so she sensibly left in silence.
Not long after returning to the office, Zhao Youlin remembered what Nie Yunfan had said earlier, that Mu Tingfeng had once asked someone to investigate her, and that it was a long time ago.
Why did he want to send someone to investigate her? Did he realize something?
Zhao Youlin frowned. Then, it was as if she thought of something, her eyebrows relaxed a bit.
No, Mu Tingfeng probably had not found out anything. Otherwise, there was no way he would not do anything for such a long time, and he…
If a normal person learned about such a thing, they would try to run away from it, right? If that guy found out that she was not the original Zhao Youlin, that she was just a ghost coming back to life and had possessed other people’s bodies, would he still court her like this?
Zhao Youlin closed her eyes, trying to ignore the little bit of disappointment and worry in her mind. By the time she opened her eyes again, the confusion and hesitation in her eyes were gone.
Zhao Youlin’s eyes swept through the entire office before settling on the phone on her desk.
At the same time, the president’s office in Mu Feng Group was filled with an extremely depressing aura.
Several female chiefs who came to report on their work s.h.i.+vered as they looked at the big boss, who was sitting behind the desk. They secretly lamented in their hearts. ‘President Mu’s ability to release cold aura is getting better. Were they going to be frozen to death here today?’
At that moment, a loud ringtone suddenly broke the silence, causing several female chiefs to s.h.i.+ver at the same time.
One by one, they reflexively touched their pockets and found that it was not their phone that was ringing.
While they heaved a sigh of relief, they stole a glance at the others and thought to themselves, ‘Who had brought her phone into the office and did not even mute it. Did she have a death wish or was she trying to commit suicide by proxy?’
They looked at each other for a while and only found that each other’s eyes were filled with curiosity and confusion, apparently… The ringing phone was not theirs, but in the office, other than them, there was only…
In an instant, they all s.h.i.+fted their gaze to the big boss, who was sitting behind the desk. And then, everyone was so fortunate to witness President Mu, who was frowning and attempting to kill them with his cold gaze a second ago, suddenly relax his brows and was in a good mood after seeing the caller ID on his phone!
