Chapter 856 Li Ruoxi’s Thank You Gift
"Um... things are not what you think." Lin Huan was confused when he saw Li Ruoxi suddenly barging in. He was now being held by Sun Xiaoyue, who was disguised as Avril Lavigne, and Avril Lavigne was relatively close to him. It looks like she is being coquettish with herself, so ambiguous!
Although Lin Huan had no intentions towards Li Ruoxi, he still didn't want to be misunderstood by the little diva as an affectionate man.
Li Ruoxi forced a smile and said, "Yeah, I didn't see anything. You guys...continue."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
How could Lin Huan let her leave like this? If he didn't explain clearly immediately, Li Ruoxi would definitely think that there was some ulterior relationship between him and Sun Xiaoyue!
"Wait a minute, I have something to discuss with you." Lin Huan quickly stopped Li Ruoxi.
Li Ruoxi turned around and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"
"Well, just now Xiaoyue said that she wanted to take a ten-and-a-half-month leave from me. I thought it was a bit bad for her to ask for leave as soon as she entered the studio, so I rejected her, so she..." Lin Huan deliberately did not say anything. Finished, because he believed that Li Ruoxi could understand what he meant.
"That's why she grabbed your arm and begged you?" As Lin Huan expected, Li Ruoxi understood what he meant.
"Yes." Lin Huan smiled bitterly, and then said: "You are one of the bosses and Xiaoyue's direct leader. It is up to you to make the decision on this matter. I will not interfere blindly."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Huan calmly broke away from Avril's pull.
After hearing Lin Huan's explanation, Li Ruoxi's face looked much better. She asked pleasantly, "Xiaoyue, why do you want to take leave suddenly? Is there something urgent at home?"
Avril is also a quick-thinking person. She immediately explained: "Sister Li, I'm really sorry. My boyfriend is hospitalized and needs someone to take care of him. His family is not in Tianhai, and he has no particularly good friends in Tianhai, so I want to go to the hospital to take care of him for a while.”
Having said this, Avril's eyes turned red, and there was a mist in her eyes.
Li Ruoxi's expression changed slightly, and she quickly asked: "Xiaoyue, don't be impatient. How long do you want to take leave?"
"Ten days to half a month, maybe..." Avril said uncertainly.
"Is fifteen days enough?" Li Ruoxi said the words "fifteen days" without even thinking about it.
In the eyes of the little diva, Sun Xiaoyue was able to put down her work and go to the hospital to take care of her boyfriend. This was a sign of true love. Li Ruoxi was almost moved, so how could she stop her?
Avril glanced at Lin Huan and said uncertainly: "Fifteen days...should be enough, right?"
Lin Huan knew that Avril was asking whether her fifteen-day vacation was enough to avoid Richard.
But Lin Huan didn't know how many days Richard would stay in Tianhai City, nor when Richard would come, so Lin Huan could only roll his eyes helplessly.
The interaction between them was fully visible to Li Ruoxi, but Li Ruoxi thought that Sun Xiaoyue was afraid that she would make Lin Huan angry if she asked for a fifteen-day leave, so she said: "Xiaoyue, you don't have to look at Mr. Lin. You are my subordinate, I have the final say on how many days of leave you ask for."
Avril's face changed slightly, then she put on a moved look and said, "Thank you, Sister Li. I'll give you fifteen days first. If it's not enough, I'll call you."
"Okay, you can come with me to apply for leave." After saying that, Li Ruoxi twisted her waist and left.
Ten minutes later, Lin Huan received a message from Avril: "The leave application procedures have been completed, where should I go next?"
Lin Huan thought for a while and then replied: "Go to a nearby cafe to wait for me."
Just after sending this message, Li Ruoxi opened the door again and walked in.
Lin Huan put away her phone, smiled and asked, "Is Xiaoyue gone?"
When Li Ruoxi came in for the first time, she wore an off-white long coat. She had already taken off the coat after coming in this time.
After seeing the little queen's dress, Lin Huan felt a sense of surprise in her heart.
Because it was a work occasion, the little diva was not dressed grandly today. She wore a white shirt on her upper body and a short black tie on the collar.
Underneath, she wore a red, brown, and blue plaid skirt that was three fingers away from her knees. On her feet, she wore a pair of black stockings and a pair of black mid-heeled shoes.
Although it is the cold winter season, the heating in the studio is quite high and the temperature is suitable, so Li Ruoxi will not feel cold at all dressed up like this.
With such an outfit coupled with Li Ruoxi's pure and beautiful face, Lin Huan felt a strong youthful college style coming to her face.
Lin Huan even had the illusion of returning to college.
"Well, let's go." As he spoke, Li Ruoxi came to stand in front of Lin Huan, stared into his eyes and asked, "Did you have a good time last night?"
Lin Huan struggled to look away from the little queen and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"Did you see the bloodshot eyes in my eyes?" After finishing her words, Li Ruoxi took another small step forward and tried to open her eyes wide.
Lin Huan took a look and found that the little queen's eyes were red and bloodshot, so she asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Li Ruoxi nodded and said, "Well, I had trouble sleeping last night and didn't fall asleep until three or four in the morning."
Lin Huan frowned and asked, "What's on your mind?"
Then he added: "Let's not stand here stupidly. Let's go and sit on the sofa and talk."
After saying that, Lin Huan turned around and walked towards the sofa by the wall.
At this moment, Li Ruoxi suddenly grabbed his arm and said in a slightly trembling tone: "No, I'm going to stand and tell you."
Lin Huan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said, "Okay, then let's just stand..."
Before the word "Say" was uttered, Li Ruoxi threw herself into Lin Huan's arms, raised her head and kissed Lin Huan's mouth.
Lin Huan felt like he was hugging a piece of nephrite, a sweet breath came from his mouth, and his brain went blank for a moment.
When Lin Huan came to his senses, he wanted to push Li Ruoxi away, but as soon as he put his hands on the little queen's shoulders, he thought of a very serious problem.
This was the second time Li Ruoxi took the initiative to kiss him. If he pushed Li Ruoxi away now, would it hurt her self-esteem?
Thinking of this, Lin Huan sighed in his heart, then put his hand down and let Li Ruoxi touch her awkwardly.
After a while, Li Ruoxi reluctantly left Lin Huan's arms.
"You..." Lin Huan wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start.
Li Ruoxi's face turned red and she said, "I just expressed my gratitude to you for saving me yesterday."
Lin Huan touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "It was just a little effort for me to save you. You thanking me in this way... is really out of line."
Lin Huan was not a fool. He knew what it meant for a woman to express her gratitude in this way.
But he already had so many women, and he really didn't want to harm a good girl like Li Ruoxi anymore, so he could only pretend to be stupid.
But will Li Ruoxi let Lin Huan act stupid here?
