47: Chapter 47 Encounter 47: Chapter 47 Encounter “The company chose you because you undoubtedly have your merits, you should be confident in yourself.”
A hint of surprise flitted across An Ruo’s eyes.
She had thought that Yun Feiyang had hired her in repayment for her help, but it seemed that was not the case.
Knowing it wasn’t his decision, An Ruo breathed a sigh of relief and felt the pressure on her ease significantly.
“So now, can I treat you to dinner?” Yun Feiyang asked her.
His words were not just casual talk; he truly intended to take her out for a meal.
Having no reason to refuse, An Ruo agreed.
She thought that Yun Feiyang was also treating her out of gratitude.
Letting him treat her this once would erase any debt between them, making it much more natural for them to interact at work in the future.
Yun Feiyang chose a quiet, well-known Chinese restaurant.
He didn’t reserve a private room, but instead found a quiet spot in the main dining area, thus avoiding the awkwardness of the two of them being alone together.
“Order whatever you like; I’m here to repay a favor today, so please don’t be polite with me,” the man said, passing her the menu with a smile that was warm and perfectly modest.
An Ruo couldn’t help but smile as well.
Actually, the type of man she liked was exactly like Yun Feiyang: gentle, polite, articulate, and with a refined temperament.
But having been through a marriage and endured so much humiliation, she had long since given up on love.
After they ordered, just as the dishes were served, Yun Feiyang’s phone suddenly rang.
The call was from his sister, Yun Feixue, who said she had spotted him.
Yun Feiyang looked around and asked, “Where are you?”
Bro, who is that woman with you?” Yun Feixue teased him while clinging to Tang Yuchen’s arm.
“She’s my assistant.”
“I didn’t know you had a new assistant, and she’s a beautiful woman at that,” Yun Feixue laughed with increasing suggestiveness.
Tang Yuchen knew she was talking to Yun Feiyang.
Following her gaze, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
An Ruo, with her back to them, hadn’t seen that Tang Yuchen had also arrived.
After hanging up the phone, Yun Feiyang suddenly stood up, took a step forward, and extended his hand: “Mr.
Tang, hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Yun Feiyang was aware of him.
He had tried to dissuade Feixue from being with him, but she wouldn’t listen, so he respected her choice and didn’t interfere further.
“President Yun, it’s a pleasure,” Tang Yuchen reached out and shook his hand, then his gaze landed on An Ruo.
Seeing her slender back suddenly stiffen, the corners of his mouth quietly curved into a smile.
“Since we’ve run into each other, why don’t we dine together?” Tang Yuchen suggested, pulling out a chair with gentlemanly charm for Yun Feixue to sit down.
“Sure, I’ll ask the waiter for two more sets of cutlery,” Yun Feiyang replied, though surprised, he had no objections.
Yun Feixue glanced at him but ultimately said nothing, though she would have preferred to dine alone with him in a private room.
Tang Yuchen pulled out another chair and sat down right beside An Ruo.
By now, An Ruo had regained her composure.
She had long anticipated the day she might run into them, she just hadn’t expected it to come so soon.
Worried that An Ruo might be uncomfortable, Yun Feiyang proactively placed a piece of fish in An Ruo’s bowl.
Surprised, she looked up at him, and he replied with a poised smile, “Eat up, I’ll drive you back later.”
His tone was practiced and natural, as if they were on good terms.
Understanding his intention, warmth filled her heart, and she returned the smile.
