Chapter 280 - Your Confidence And Personality Are Very Appealing
Jiang Ruolan held onto Yi ixiu as they stood there silently,?looking at the black Land Rover that suddenly stopped. The brake lights flashing in the dim light of the night.
The car's rear was like his back to her in the bright night.
The car stopped for a long ti. Assistant Bai's car also didn't move. She lowered the window to look at the person in the car and then looked back at Jiang Ruolan, who was standing upright on the roadside.
As for the Land Rover, it had stopped for a long ti, but no one got off or walked over.
Without guessing, Xian Zihao had seen her after all. If it were just a quick phone call, he wouldn't have imdiately turned off the ignition.
Jiang Ruolan looked at the headlights in front of her in silence. She felt that the street was silent, just like her heart. It was filled with colorful neon lights on the surface, but in reality, it was like stagnant water.
Since he didn't get out of the car, she didn't have to worry about the awkwardness when they t again and imdiately helped Yi ixiu back to her house.
It was already very late. Jiang Yijun had worked overti tonight, so she didn't know if he had returned yet.
Jiang Ruolan stood on Yi ixiu's balcony and looked out, but the direction of her balcony wasn't facing the street at the tax bureau, so she couldn't see if the car had gone or not.
Leaving Yi ixiu's house and leaving the district, Jiang Ruolan had to go through the tax bureau. When she saw the black Land Rover was still parked there, she could not help but stop at her track.
She held her bag tightly as she looked towards the rear of the black Land Rover as the lights began to brighten.
Jiang Ruolan took a deep breath and slowly walking past it. Both of them were very close, just a distance away. You see, Jiang Ruolan's stubbornness was still there, and the thorns that covered her body were truly unrecognizable.
She walked past the car without looking back.
Xian Zihao finally started the car and turned left, while Jiang Ruolan to the right.

Since there was still more than a week before the Spring Festival, the company held an annual eting. However, the company did not have enough fun, so the employees from the Entertainnt Departnt and the Departnt of Comrce disturbed their beloved Chief Editor Wan to take them sowhere else to play.
That night, both departnts' little party was located in Wan Shoushan's duplex apartnt in F City.
Jiang Ruolan didn't want to go, but Xie i was actually very protective of her favorite friend. She grabbed her and didn't let her go, and there was nothing Jiang Ruolan could do about it.
They bought a lot of things and all of them went to Wan Shoushan's duplex together. Although they said that it was a small party, they mainly wanted to observe their leader's nest. Won were born bored like this. They could find joy in boredom the best, they could even be happy about it.
The company's annual eting was held during the day and when they arrived at his house in the evening, the table was already filled with drinks and food.
Xie i and co. liked hard liquor, so they bought a Voltran before coming here. Jiang Ruolan sat alone in the corner, drinking a glass of lemonade while watching them go crazy.
At so point, a new dance song was played on the television. Two female colleagues, who were intentionally dressed seductively, went dancing. Xie i imdiately pulled Jiang Ruolan up, but she (Jiang Ruolan) stubbornly refused.
This kind of thing, it was better for her not to go out and embarrass herself.
In the end, they pulled Wan Shoushan along.
At the age of thirty-five, Wan Shoushan may still be considered in his pri, but he didn't have the sa hobby as a young man in his twenties. Seeing the helplessness in his eyes when a group of won dragged him, Jiang Ruolan could only laugh as she sipped her lemonade.
Jiang Ruolan suddenly felt she was getting older and not used to this kind of noisy environnt.
She went to the table and grabbed a bunch of raisins and so popcorn, and other snacks that the ladies bought. She ate it while watching them dance and found out an indisputable fact.
Wan Shoushan, although he was divorced and a bit old, his figure was still not bad. He was very often very modest to the little girls under him.
Those lucky won who will get married to him would be treasured by him very well.
When the song ca to an end, these people sat back down on the couch. Two people looked for a bathroom while the other was looking for an empty couch to sit on. Jiang Ruolan got up, gave them the seat, and stood at the balcony with the lemonade in her hand.
Suddenly, she felt soone approaching from behind. She turned around and saw Wan Shoushan walking towards her with Jack Daniel's wine in his hand. "Always drinking juice. You don't want to drink tonight? Afraid of getting a hangover?"
"Did you forget? I just got sick a few days ago, and the doctor told not to drink." Jiang Ruolan smiled and casually gave a reason.
He nodded. "No wonder. If so, let's have a toast?" Wan Shoushan raised his glass to her.
Jiang Ruolan raised her glass, clinked it with his, and then pretended to shiver.?She didn't want to be alone with him anymore. Jiang Ruolan smiled politely at Wan Shoushan and started to walk inside.
However, the mont she turned, her arm was suddenly grasped by him. Jiang Ruolan was stunned and imdiately looked at Wan Shoushan. She was imdiately on alert.
Wan Shoushan was staring intensely at her and leaned close. He was now like a ferocious beast trying to catch his prey, giving Jiang Ruolan no room to retreat. His goal was clear.
Wan Shoushan stared at her lips, bent his head, and was about to kiss her.
Jiang Ruolan was greatly alard and instinctively tried to shake off his hand.?She quickly took two steps back. Her expression was very awkward under the night sky, but her intention to refuse was clear.
Seeing how she rejected him, Wan Shoushan was a bit disappointed, but he still let out a sigh and smiled. "Sorry, I was impulsive." Having said so, he took another sip of the wine in a very serious manner and apologized to her.
Only then did Jiang Ruolan relax and shook her head. "It's alright. I know Brother Wan likes to joke around."
"I'm not joking. Ruolan! It was really obvious that we have a tacit understanding in work and life, and even if we are together, it shouldn't be too abrupt. I like won like you. Your confidence and personality are very appealing to . I hope you can think about it and consider whether our relationship can go further or not." he said suddenly.
Jiang Ruolan pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "Brother Wan, I think we--"
"I'm very curious about what happened to you in H City a year ago? Why did you co back after leaving? I rember that you said that you had a boyfriend at that ti, and you went to H City to find him. But now, you should already be single, right?"
