32、Bodyguard upgraded to boyfriend?
Tianjie is the commercial center of Yongcheng, a paradise for consumption.
A girl is going to Tianjie Street, what will happen?
This question is so easy that even a toe can think of the answer.
Chen Chen asked with a smile while driving: "Miss Luo, are you going shopping?"
"Why not?" Luo Xinyan responded indifferently, slumping against the back of her chair with a listless expression, looking extremely unhappy: "What's there to be nervous about? It's not like it's your money."
"But I have to spend my time on it." Chen Chen joked: "You go shopping, it's not something that can be done in a short while. At this point, I should have gotten off work, but I still have to accompany you for close protection."
"Are you satisfied with the overtime pay I'm giving you?" Rong Xiran couldn't help but roll her eyes, but suddenly thought of something and immediately changed her tone: "Wait a minute, why should I give you overtime pay? It's your honor to go shopping with me, how many people want to ask me out to shop together but can't, what are you not satisfied with?"
"This is not the same." Chen Chen shook his head repeatedly: "They asked you out to stroll, wanting to be your boyfriend. I accompanied you to stroll, but could only be your bodyguard. A bodyguard upgrading to a boyfriend, seems like something that's never been heard of before."
"It happens in dreams all the time." Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes again.
As they spoke, the car had already entered a certain underground parking lot on Tianjie Street.
Found a vacant parking space and parked the car, both of them got out together and took the elevator up to the ground floor.
Luo Xiner walked into a clothing store and started selecting clothes at will, Chen Chen closely followed her side, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, the iris scanner marked out all the movements of everyone, presenting them in front of him.
Chen Chen had never been so focused as he was at this moment, he was very clear that this place was not like the quiet academy, it was the most prosperous area in Rong City, there were people everywhere, and if an attack were to be launched, it would also be the most suitable place.
Luo Xinyan didn't pay attention to these things. When she arrived at the consumer area, she was no different from ordinary girls.
However, she was obviously somewhat absent-minded today, and shopping didn't seem to interest her much either. She casually browsed several stores in a row, then left, with an extremely calm expression on her face, not excited at all.
She lost interest after a while and didn't even bother to enter the stores anymore, just walking along the bustling streets with all sorts of fine goods on both sides, but none of them could arouse her desire to buy.
They walked for a while and finally arrived at Food Heaven.
She raised her head to look at the sign of a Western restaurant on the second floor, and let out a soft sigh. She turned her head and glanced at Chen Chen: "Accompany me to go up and have a meal."
Having said that, he didn't care about Chen Chen's reaction and went up the escalator by himself.
Seeing this, Chen Chen could only follow her up from behind.
Two people walked into the Western restaurant, one in front of the other. The enthusiastic waiter led them to a window seat, lit a candle, and a warm golden glow spread out, creating a small two-person domain in the darkness.
Chen Chen only then noticed that the Western restaurant would not turn on its lights at night, but instead left a single candle on each table for lighting. At this time, the sky had already completely darkened, and in the pitch-black space, the candles twinkled like stars, illuminating the happy faces of friends and lovers, making it seem extremely romantic.
But a rich girl and a bodyguard don't seem like a romantic match, do they?
"Don't be so gloomy." Noticing Chen Chen's somewhat uneasy expression, Luo Xinyan smiled faintly: "I'll pay for this meal, consider it overtime compensation, are you satisfied now?"
"Even if I were to pay the bill, you probably wouldn't be happy." Chen Chen didn't mince words and accepted with a smile: "You paying the bill is like an employer taking care of an employee. If I paid the bill, it would really be like a man asking a woman out for dinner."
"Poverty-stricken mouth." Lu Xinyan chuckled and shook her head, picking up the menu to start ordering, while the waiter stood quietly by, taking note.
After ordering, Ruo Xinran suddenly thought of something and added a sentence: "Add a birthday cake."
The waiter nodded and took the order away.
"A birthday cake?" Chen Chen suddenly understood, curiously looking at the other person: "Are you celebrating your birthday today? You originally wanted Lao Luo to accompany you, but Lao Luo had something urgent come up, so you're unhappy?"
"Are all men so devoted to their own careers that they don't care about anything else?" Rong Xiran didn't respond, but the question itself was a tacit acknowledgement.
"Do you know what's most important for a man?" Chen Chen spread out his hands, looking at the other person seriously: "Responsibility! Every man from birth on has responsibility on his shoulders, this is the most important thing. If he loses this, then he has nothing."
"What's your responsibility?" Luo Xiner asked with a smile.
"Actually, most men's responsibilities are the same, family, and loved ones." Chen Chen replied without hesitation: "Career or ambition, the starting point is all from these, it's just that some people deviated in the pursuit."
"Since the starting point is for family and loved ones." Lu Xinyan sighed: "Then why do responsibility and family often conflict?"
"It's just the helplessness of reality..." Chen Chen sighed involuntarily as he mentioned this: "Who doesn't want to spend more time with the people they care about? Just like me, I haven't been back home for a year now, and I miss my parents too..."
Just as they were talking, the food was ready and they temporarily stopped their conversation to start eating.
"Anyway," Chen Chen raised his glass and handed it to Luo Xinyan: "Although I'm just an employee, happy birthday to my boss."
"Thanks..." Ruo Xinran also raised his own cup and clinked it with Chen Chen's.
As Chen Chen drank the beverage, he saw a hint of a happy smile on Luo Xinyan's always indifferent face, just like a snow lotus blooming suddenly and vividly on top of an iceberg, leaving people dazzled.
It can be seen that after a conversation and an unexpected birthday wish, the gloom in her heart has been driven away.
During dinner, a resident pianist came to the Western restaurant and walked to the ivory white piano in the center, starting to play soothing music, with the golden candlelight matching the gentle melody, making people drunk.
Seeing this scene, Chen Chen suddenly thought of something and got up: "Wait for me."
After finishing speaking, he left the dinner table and walked to the pianist's side, bowed his head and whispered something to the other person. After doing all this, he quickly returned, with a mysterious smile on his face.
Luo Xinyan naturally knew what he was up to and couldn't help but smile and shake her head. At this time, the pianist also took the microphone and softly said: "Tonight, a beautiful angel has arrived here, the young and lovely Miss Luo. Today is her birthday. In this happy moment, we would like to dedicate a birthday song to her, wishing her eternal happiness and beauty."
Having said that, he began to press the piano keys and played the birthday song.
Affected by this infection, the remaining guests in the restaurant also cast friendly glances over here, and some more enthusiastic ones even stood up to applaud and send their blessings. For a time, Luo Xinyan became the focus of the scene.
She couldn't help but nod her head in agreement, and during this process, a happy smile was hidden on her pretty face.
