Chapter 172 I've been waiting for you
Lu Mianmian answered the phone with a complicated expression, and after a while she said, "Hello, I'm Lu Mianmian."
"When will you get off work? , I'll pick you up." Wen Mulan's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Mianmian bit her lip slightly, "No, I will work overtime until very late today."
"Then let me bring you some midnight snacks?" he said again.
"No!" She quickly refused, "Mr. Wen, I've been very busy these days and I'm afraid I don't have time to contact you. If you decide when to take a photo shoot and the remaining content that has not yet been taken, you can Contact the assistant in our studio and she will finalize a time with you. That's it, I'm hanging up!"
After that, she ended the call in a hurry without waiting for Wen Mulan's answer.
After a long time, Wen Mulan never called again.
Lu Mianmian smiled bitterly. Her rejection just now was so obvious. A proud man like Wen Mulan is usually praised by women, so how could he be treated so ignorantly? Rejection!
Isn’t it normal that you won’t call again?
Lu Mianmian tried hard to get rid of the messy thoughts in her mind and began to immerse herself in work.
After she finished all the work at hand, she looked at the time and saw that it was almost 9 p.m., it was completely dark, and she was the only one left in the studio!
She stretched and felt hungry.
Because I was busy working, I didn’t even have dinner!
After packing his things, Lu Mianmian left the studio.
But when she walked out of the building where the studio was located, she was suddenly stunned. A figure was standing not far away from the building.
That is——Wen Mulan!
The light from the street lamp fell on him, cold and dignified.
Lu Mianmian could hardly believe her eyes. How could Wen Mulan be here? !
But when she closed her eyes and opened them again, Wen Mulan was still standing there!
It's not an illusion, it's real!
Lu Mianmian almost trotted to Wen Mulan, "Why are you here?
"Waiting for you. "He said.
"But...but I didn't make you wait! "She said naa na.
"Since you have to work overtime, then I will wait until you finish working overtime and I can always see you. "He said, his tone was very normal, as if waiting for her was a normal thing.
Lu Mianmian didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, her stomach made an inappropriate "gurgling" sound.
Lu Mianmian was embarrassed for a while, but Wen Mulan smiled slightly, "Are you hungry? Didn't you have dinner?"
"Well, I was busy with work... I kind of forgot about the time." She said Na said.
"Then let me take you to eat something to fill your stomach first?" he said.
"No, I can just find something to eat by myself!" She refused immediately. She could no longer be in contact with him like this. It would only make it more and more difficult for her to control her feelings.
His eyes darkened, his eyelids drooped, and a touch of bitterness escaped from the corner of his lips, "Did I do something wrong, or say something wrong? That's why you hate me so much, even if you don't even stay with you Don't you want me to accompany you if you want to eat something?"
His expression made Lu Mianmian suddenly feel guilty, as if she had done something wrong.
"I don't hate you, and you didn't say or do anything wrong!" In fact, it was all her own reasons.
"In that case, let me have something to eat with you first, okay?" He said, with a hint of pleading in his voice, making Lu Mianmian unable to say any more words of rejection.
"Then...well, let's have some midnight snack first," she said. Just wait until after you finish your midnight snack and tell him clearly. You can't let it go on like this any longer! Lu Mianmian made some determination in her heart!
Wen Mulan then smiled and said, "My car is parked next to me. What do you want to eat? I will take you to eat!"
Looking at Wen Mulan's face at this moment The smile on his face made Lu Mianmian suddenly feel like his nose was sore.
“Just the roadside stalls nearby.” Lu Mianmian said, “I usually go to the roadside stalls in this area to have something to eat after working overtime.”
"Well, let's just go to the roadside stall." He said.
Lu Mianmian took Wen Mulan to a roadside stall where she often ate.
As soon as the boss saw Lu Mianmian, he immediately greeted her warmly, "Miss Lu, you are working overtime again."
"Yes." Lu Mianmian said.
"Is this your friend? He looks like a star." The boss looked at Wen Mulan with surprise in his eyes.
Lu Mianmian smiled dryly, ordered a bowl of Malatang, and then asked Wen Mulan, "Do you want something to eat?"
"I'm not hungry, then..." He looked at the stall I originally wanted to order some snacks, but I didn’t see any snacks.
"Just give him a bottle of Coke, boss." Lu Mianmian said to the boss.
“Okay!” the boss responded.
The boss took out the coke first, handed it to Wen Mulan, and then went to make Malatang.
Wen Mulan held the Coke, but did not unscrew the bottle cap. Instead, she looked at Lu Mianmian and said, "If you are too busy during this period, you can postpone the photo shoot. There is no rush. I don't want to Excuse you, I can reduce contact , or, when you finish your work every day, I can just wait below your studio and meet you."
Lu Mianmian looked at Wen Mulan in front of him, he even used a kind of expression at the moment. He said this in a humble tone.
In the past, she might have lied to herself and said that he was good to her and only regarded her as a benefactor because she felt that she had saved his life!
But now, even I feel like I can’t be deceived anymore.
Lu Mianmian pursed her lips. The expectant look in his eyes made her feel that some words seemed to be difficult to say.
After a while, she said, "Why are you waiting downstairs just to see me? How long have you been waiting today?"
"It's only a few hours, not a long time." he said.
So for him, how long is long? "Fool!" she couldn't help but say.
He smiled self-deprecatingly, "I know it's stupid for me to do this." But he couldn't help it, because he really wanted to see her and hear her voice.
Lu Mianmian's nose seemed to be more sour, and even her eyes became a little warm.
Fortunately, at this time, the boss brought the spicy hot pot, and Lu Mianmian quickly lowered her head and started eating the spicy hot pot.
"It's still hot, don't eat too fast! Be careful!" Wen Mulan quickly reminded.
"Well..." She responded in a low voice, but did not raise her head.
In this way, she kept lowering her head and eating Malatang, while he sat and looked at her quietly.
