Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering Chapter 2452: Chance Encounter

Chapter 2452: Chance Encounter

Zhou Li had worked overtime for two consecutive nights for the surgery and his nerves were tense, his clear eyes bloodshot.

Hearing An Rui’s question, his expression was clear and he said gently, “I can’t interfere in your matters.”

In the past few years, Zhou Li had been focused on his studies and work and had not asked about An Rui and Shen Mingxiu.

They had liked each other since high school and such a relations.h.i.+p was irreplaceable.

He had promised Shen Mingxiu that he would not become an obstacle between them.

Earlier, when he saw the two of them hugging, he left without looking at them.

He did not know if An Rui had done it willingly or forcefully.

But from her expression now, it should be forced.

“I’m sorry.” He raised his well-defined fingers and ma.s.saged his throbbing temples.

An Rui was a little disappointed that Zhou Li had ignored her. She glared at him angrily and turned to face the elevator.

Zhou Li looked at An Rui’s back and felt her anger.

“An Rui, I didn’t know about your current relations.h.i.+p with Old Shen. If I did anything wrong, I apologize…”

An Rui pursed her lips tightly and ignored Zhou Li.

When the elevator reached the top floor and the door opened, An Rui left in her high heels.

Zhou Li walked out and frowned slightly when he saw her flying away as if there was a ferocious beast behind her.

An Rui unlocked the door and went in without looking back.

Zhou Li sighed slightly and returned to the apartment opposite.

She washed her hands and went to her room to change.

She was about to go to the kitchen to make something to eat when the doorbell rang.

Zhou Li opened the door and An Rui stood at the door with a tense expression.

“I haven’t seen you around recently and I’m a little busy. Here’s your jacket.” An Rui handed him a jacket and two large porcelain bowls.

“I accidentally broke two bowls when I was was.h.i.+ng the dishes at your house that day. This is for you!”

Zhou Li took the jacket with a calm expression and looked at the two bowls An Rui handed over. He frowned and said, “I don’t need this.”

An Rui put the bowl at his door and turned to leave. When she reached her apartment, she turned back to look at him. “That’s another matter. I don’t want to owe you anything.”

After she went in, she slammed the door shut.

Zhou Li stared at the closed door for a long time.

….

An Rui fell onto the sofa, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Perhaps it was Shen Mingxiu’s reckless entanglement, or Zhou Li’s cold indifference.

They were high school cla.s.smates after all. How could he ignore her when she was being bullied?

He was really too much!

Fortunately, An Rui was a cheerful person. After a night of anger, she was fine the next day.

What she was most worried about now was her work.

“Sister Ruirui, the advertising manager of a shoe factory contacted me and asked if you’re free tonight. He wants to have dinner with you to talk about endors.e.m.e.nts!”

An Rui asked Xiaohe to send her the information about the shoe factory.

After reading it, An Rui was a little surprised. This shoe factory was very well-known in S Country. Why would the marketing manager think of her?

But now that the chance had come, she had to seize it.

After arranging a place to meet, An Rui wore a dark green dress with her long hair draped over her shoulders and went to an Italian restaurant.

An Rui and Xiaohe met at the entrance of the restaurant. When An Rui saw Manager Sun, she greeted him with a smile.

“Miss An, I’m sorry, I’ve left my contract with the company. I’ll have to trouble your a.s.sistant to help me get it.”

Xiaohe nodded. “No problem.”

After Xiaohe left, Manager Sun got up and pulled out a chair for An Rui in a gentlemanly manner.

Manager Sun was a talkative person and the atmosphere was harmonious, but An Rui found that he did not mention the endors.e.m.e.nt.

“Manager Sun, I’m sorry to ask, but why did you think of letting me endorse your brand’s new designs?”

Manager Sun looked at An Rui, whose eyebrows were slender and exquisite, and said with a smile, “To be honest, I didn’t know Miss An before, but after seeing your photo on Weibo recently, I feel that your image matches the spokesperson we’re looking for…”

Seeing that An Rui was about to finish her tea, Manager Sun got up to pour her some tea.

An Rui furrowed her eyebrows quietly.

This Manager Sun was too attentive!

“Xiao An, I have an electronic contract here. Do you want to take a look at it first?” Manager Sun got up and sat beside An Rui.

Before An Rui could say anything, a hot figure suddenly rushed over.

She pulled Manager Sun away from her and when An Rui looked up at that person, there was a crisp sound and An Rui blacked out.

….

In the corner of the western restaurant.

Several doctors were sitting there eating.

One of the female nurses ran over and gossiped, “The wife over there is. .h.i.tting the mistress. Oh my G.o.d, the wife is so fierce!”

The doctors and nurses who were having dinner together were all young people who were not married.

Several male doctors could not help but stretch their necks to look at the table by the French windows.

“Don’t say that the mistress is really beautiful. She has slender eyebrows, small eyes, and is fair and clean. She looks like a well-educated girl. How could she do such an indecent thing?”

“Today’s society is too materialistic. Money is everything!”

“With the first wife’s figure, she can block two mistresses. How can a mistress be her opponent?”

While the doctors and nurses were gossiping, there was only one person who did not look like he was gossiping at all. He was almost done with his meal and was using his phone to reply to several patients who were asking about him.

“Oh my G.o.d, the wife pushed the mistress to the ground. The mistress is wearing high heels and she might sprain her ankle!”

“Don’t you think the mistress looks a little familiar?”

“Do you look familiar? The beauty has a unique appearance and doesn’t look like an internet celebrity… I do seem to have seen her somewhere!”

“Isn’t she the little celebrity, An Rui, who was on the trending list from time to time a few days ago?”

The elegant man sitting in the corner of the booth looked up when he heard An Rui’s name.

“Hey, Dr Zhou, where are you going?”

Seeing Zhou Li rush out, the other doctors and nurses asked him in confusion.

But she did not get a reply.

….

After An Rui stood up, she looked at the woman who was pointing at her nose, scolding her for ruining their family and cursing her family. Her thoughts had returned.

She also understood why Manager Sun had asked her to come.

It was not to talk about endors.e.m.e.nts at all, but to use her as a s.h.i.+eld.

An Rui looked around and her almond-shaped eyes fell back to her hands on her waist. The woman who kept cursing picked up a gla.s.s of water on the table and threw it at the woman’s face.

The fat on the woman’s face trembled.

“Y-You vixen, you still dare to throw it at me?” The woman rolled up her sleeves and pounced at An Rui again.

But before she could approach An Rui, her arm was grabbed by a slender hand.

An Rui was slightly stunned when she saw Qing Yi rus.h.i.+ng over and blocking her way.
