247 In The Blink Of An Eye, More Than Ten Years Gone By (1/2)

Xuxu stared at him, speechless, ”...”

It would be so impolite to stand someone up.

Yet, he was still acting so haughty and said it in such tyrannical tone. If Zhou Shuang hears of this, she would definitely bad-mouth him even more.

Him wanting to bring her out for lunch was probably just to accompany him for his social engagements. If so, she'd prefer not to go.

”I've already promised the children from the orphanage that I'll be visiting them again, and it's been some time since I last went there.”

So no matter what I say, she's still visiting the orphanage today?

Yan Rusheng was annoyed. ”Wen Xuxu, it's not a good idea to disappoint me.”

He had pushed away all his business engagements just to be with her because he wanted a taste of what it's like to spend the weekend with her as husband and wife, just like any ordinary couple.

And she had the gall to turn him down.

”Sigh. You...” Xuxu mulled over her what to say and stopped short.

Of course, she should be the one giving in, yet she'd almost acted beyond the status of their relationship.

She lowered her head and continued to sip her porridge.

”I'll go with you next week.”

All of a sudden, she heard Yan Rusheng's voice from across her, but this time, his tone had softened.

Xuxu was startled. She raised her head in astonishment and stared blankly at his charming face.

After a period of silence, she asked uncertainly, ”Are you saying that you'll come with me to the orphanage next week?”

Young Master Yan examined her reaction and raised his eyebrows smugly. ”Are you overwhelmed with joy?”

”...” Xuxu rolled her eyes.

If he hadn't asked this question, she really would have been overwhelmed with joy. But after hearing it, that feeling had instantly vanished.
