She paused to speak and said, "Anyway, now that your grandfather is back and your mother wants to take you to the company, she must have her reasons. Shouldn't you cooperate a little?"
"Okay, I'll cooperate. You go wash up first. I'll take a nap." Luan Yennan said, pulling the thin blanket over himself, but his eyes remained fixed on Zuo Baixuan.
Until she saw the little white rabbit, whose face inexplicably flushed, hop into the bathroom and immediately lock the door.
Luan Yenan raised an eyebrow, sat up, and looked at herself in the dressing mirror.
She remembered when she first ran away from the mountains, she was very thin and weak, but the clothes that other girls her age wore always looked like they were stolen and she couldn't fill them out.
In the not-so-good cafeteria, she always managed to eat half a portion more than others, and she grew very quickly.
While other children go home to play after eating, sleeping, and studying, she chooses to exercise and read.
She hadn't lived in the orphanage for very long, but she had grown into a fair-skinned, tall, and elegant woman.
Back in the mountains, that man would only beat my mother and call her a "money-losing good," but he would never hit her. This was because he had once said, "Although she's a money-losing good, she's a beauty in the making and can fetch a good price."
Luan Yenan has indeed grown into a beautiful woman.
Of the people who come to the orphanage to adopt children, nine out of ten will take a second look at her.
Many of them are young foreign couples from well-off families.
However, Luan Yenan did not want to be adopted.
She will only have one mother in her life, no father.
She appeared aloof in front of her adoptive parents, but quickly learned how to help with all sorts of tasks at the orphanage, and as she grew a little older, she was even able to take on financial work directly.
When I got a little older, I started using computers to help process documents.
She became the most indispensable person in the orphanage.
However, even under these circumstances, quite a few people still want to take her away when they come to adopt her.
From that moment on, Luan Yenan knew that she was beautiful, very beautiful, perhaps even stunningly beautiful.
Good-looking people have a natural advantage in society, but they also encounter more filth and corruption because of their good looks.
Given her strength, she even hated this cumbersome good looks.
She was satisfied only after her reputation for being crazy overshadowed her good looks.
As for now...
She was quite pleased that her beauty could make Zuo Baixuan waver.
Luan Yenan raised the corners of her mouth in front of the mirror, determining the best angle.
...
While washing up in the bathroom, Zuo Baixuan also cleared her mind, reminding herself that she couldn't forget her purpose just because Luan Yenan was good-looking.
She quickly changed her clothes, preparing to have Luan Yenan come in and change as well.
But as soon as the door opened, she saw Luan Yenan, wearing a white shirt and light-colored casual trousers, putting on a pair of high heels. Her ankles were forcefully sculpted into a beautiful shape.
Luan Yenan took a sip of milk and glanced at the bed: "You're right, Mom needs us to be at work on time. She just came to urge us. This set is for you."
A light pink women's shirt and dark casual suit pants, paired with a pair of matching high heels, are neatly placed to the side.
It's clear that it was specially prepared for the two of them.
Zuo Baixuan looked at Luan Yenan.
Did this person just stand in the bedroom and change their clothes like that?
What if I had come out of the bathroom a little earlier?
What if Zuo Baixuan had come out of the bathroom earlier?
Luan Yenan raised the corners of her mouth, but unfortunately there were no "what ifs".
If things were different, the flustered little rabbit might get a fright and rush back to the bathroom, perhaps even bumping into the bathroom door in her panic, resulting in her cheeks turning bright red. Then, the villain would accuse her of changing clothes in the bedroom.
It's such a pity that Luan Yenan changed clothes at a normal pace, but didn't get to witness such an interesting plot.
Zuo Baixuan held back, asked nothing, picked up her set of clothes and went back to the bathroom, where she changed in a short while.
Luan Yenan was sitting on the edge of the bed with his legs crossed, his slender legs dangling in mid-air.
This made Zuo Baixuan's heart flutter.
Luan Yenan was also wearing glasses and holding a folder in his hand, looking at documents.
He was so serious that he really resembled a young CEO.
This wasn't the first time Zuo Baixuan had seen him wearing glasses.
Luan Yenan would occasionally wear it when they held group meetings at school or were coding together in the office.
The first time we saw her wearing glasses, she amazed everyone.
Wearing glasses altered the lines and light effect on Luan Yenan's face, making her less sharp and more gentle and intellectual.
Jiang Lingdan even stated publicly that if everyone didn't know that Luan Yenan and Zuo Baixuan were a married couple, many people would have gone to Luan Yenan to express their affection and confess their love.
Zuo Baixuan stared at Luan Yenan's profile for a long time, and agreed with Jiang Lingdan's statement.
Luan Yenan didn't look up. While looking at the documents, he asked, "Shall we have breakfast in the room or go downstairs? Mom said we'll leave in half an hour."
"Didn't you already eat?" Zuo Baixuan asked, looking at the empty cup on the table.
"That's just a little something to quench my thirst. Of course, we'll have breakfast together." Luan Yenan finished reading the last line of the document and turned to look at Zuo Baixuan.
When Luan Yenan saw that the outfit sent to Zuo Baixuan was a pink shirt, he hesitated for a moment.
Now all she wants to say is that makeup artists, being in the fashion industry, are indeed better at matching people to their style than she is.
It can exceed one's own imagination.
Even with the lace trim, Zuo Baixuan's pink shirt doesn't look tacky; instead, it makes her skin appear even more rosy.
Pairing it with dark casual suit pants and high heels won't make you look old-fashioned; you can immediately see that you're young and playful, yet still maintain a serious and professional work atmosphere.
"This outfit looks great," Luan Yennan complimented.
Zuo Baixuan pursed her lips, not trying to suppress her laughter, and walked generously to Luan Yenan's side, taking her hand: "You look very beautiful too. Let's go downstairs to eat."
Pulled by Zuo Baixuan, Luan Yenan stood up and, as he passed the table, took off his glasses and handed the folder to Zuo Baixuan: "Mom said that the company we started has attracted the interest of some senior executives. She wants me to take this opportunity to go to the company to make my presence known and dispel the bad rumors from before. You can take a look at the documents if you are interested."
"Isn't this considered an internal secret? You just showed it to me like that?" Zuo Baixuan wasn't in a hurry to open it, but was rather curious.
"Do you think you'll let me see internal secrets?" Luan Yenan countered.
“That’s true.” Zuo Baixuan echoed Luan Yennan’s self-deprecating remark.
Luan Yenan chuckled and went downstairs with her.
Seeing Luan Ye coming down from the south, Luan Muyin raised her head and said, "They think they can use the blockchain technology provided by 'blockchain currency' to solve the problems we encountered back then. What do you think?"
"Yes, I already have an idea. Let's go to the company after dinner," Luan Yenan replied confidently.
Looking at Luan Yenan like this, Luan Muyin felt as if she were seeing a shrewd capitalist who was about to take a big bite out of a big cake.
...
"Hiss, I heard that Miss Luan is coming to the company today."
"What the hell? She dares to come back? Isn't she afraid those people up there will tear her to pieces?"
"Yeah, we're alright. We lost an order, so we also lost a lot of overtime. Our bonuses haven't changed much, so it doesn't matter. But those higher up who are just waiting for their stock dividends, they're losing way more than just a little bit, aren't they?"
"Hey, I heard that President Luan is bringing his grandson back this time. A battle among the wealthy is about to begin, so Luan Yenan has no choice but to bite the bullet and come over to make his presence felt."
"Do they think the higher-ups are idiots? They think she can just use her connections like that? Even President Luan's influence wouldn't work, would it?"
"Then you must be ignorant. Luan Yenan is going to amaze everyone when she comes back. She caused quite a stir not long ago."
"I know about the racetrack."
"Hmph, what's the racetrack stuff? The real big deal is the 'blockchain' that's been shaking up the IT world lately!"
"What? Tell me more, what kind of gossip is this?"
"Cough cough!"
Whispers could be heard everywhere in the company.
Until someone in front of the elevator reminded them, everyone held their breath in unison.
Then, the stern-faced Luan Muyin appeared with two beauties.
A tall, aloof beauty; just one glance from her eyes reveals the sharpness in her narrow gaze, radiating the dangerous aura of a carnivore.
Standing next to the tall, beautiful woman, the petite woman wore a faint smile, like a guileless herbivore. However, standing in the shadow of danger, she made people want to stay away.
After the three entered the private elevator reserved for the president, which led directly to the top-floor conference hall, the breathing of the people in the queue gradually returned to normal.
Were those the legendary Miss Luan and her wife just now? They have such an elegant air about them.
With that thought lingering, everyone completely forgot about the topic they had just been discussing.
The president took the direct elevator to the conference room.
The conference room was already filled with high-ranking officials who were attending the meeting today.
Most of them had been betrayed by the original owner, so they were always skeptical about the news that "Luan Yenan is related to cryptocurrency".
In their view, Luan Yenan was at most a puppet figurehead publicly announced by "Huanyu" who could handle things.
After all, the Luan family is behind this puppet.
Regardless, if they want to quickly obtain the core technology behind "blockchain" and communicate with key figures, they have to go through Luan Yenan first.
This led to the agreement reached with Luan Muyin after repeated discussions.
It's not impossible for them to leave a place for Luan Yenan after Luan Lizheng brings Luan Yecha back, but the premise is that Luan Yenan must provide assistance to their current project; otherwise, it will be difficult to let bygones be bygones.
At this moment, they were all sitting in the conference room, staring intently at the door, ready to fix their gazes on Luan Yenan the moment she walked in.
Click, click, click.
Her powerful high heels, with a steady rhythm, led her to the conference room door.
Luan Yenan, dressed neatly and cleanly, stood in everyone's sight.
The hostile gazes from everyone immediately lessened, replaced by amazement.
