Chapter 119
"Brother Han, you're bullying me," Bai Shuruo said.
No matter which one she chose, she would be the one at a disadvantage.
Han Yangting wrapped his arms around her waist and said with a mischievous smile, "This is my territory, so I'm bullying you. You can't escape."
Bai Shuruo knew he was flirting on purpose, and he was pulling her tighter and tighter, refusing to let go. A wise person doesn't fight when the odds are against them, so she had to say, "Then, let's tie the tie."
She took the tie from him, but she had no idea what to do.
"How about I look it up on Baidu?" Bai Shuruo asked, looking up.
Han Yangting held her hands and said, "Just do as I say. First, fold these two sides over..."
Han Yangting taught her almost hand-in-hand.
As he taught her, he said, "If a woman ties a tie for a man, it means she wants to keep him by her side for a lifetime."
Bai Shuruo paused, then shyly lowered her head, "No way."
"Don't deny it."
She was nervous and shy, so she finally just gave it a hard tug, and the tie tightened, nearly choking his neck.
"Oh, Brother Han, I—I'm sorry."
Han Yangting didn't blame her; he loosened the tie himself and then easily tied it properly. His palms were large, his fingers slender and well-defined, and the way he tied the tie was very handsome, with a hint of sexiness.
Bai Shuruo stared at him, dazed.
Han Yangting was an excellent and handsome man, and he said he liked her.
All of this was like a dream.
Once he had finished tying his tie, he took Bai Shuruo's hand again and said, "Ruoruo, accompany me to the company today."
"Your company?"
"Don't you want to understand me in every aspect? Then come with me."
Through the conversations she usually heard from Ye Caiyue and the Second Branch, Bai Shuruo could roughly guess that Han Yangting's company was a large one. Such a large company was well worth visiting; she could treat it as a learning experience.
"Then... I'll go change my clothes," Bai Shuruo said.
But a moment later, she said dejectedly, "Oh, I don't think I brought any clothes for formal occasions."
Aside from the few outfits she bought when she first started working, Bai Shuruo had just worn whatever was convenient as long as it looked decent, because Bai Shunan always said that a designer's attire shouldn't be too rigid, as it would limit her inspiration, and she also didn't have the money to buy too many clothes.
Han Yangting smiled and pointed to the room opposite, "That room is now your walk-in closet. You can go inside and pick out the clothes you like."
"Ah?" Bai Shuruo ran over excitedly.
This room was about 25 square meters, with cabinets on three walls. Opening the sliding doors, it was filled with all kinds of clothes: evening gowns, small suits, leather jackets, sweaters, base layers, shirts, skirts... and there was a shoe cabinet with all sorts of footwear: high heels, leather shoes, sneakers, white sneakers...
She looked at these clothes and shoes in disbelief and said, "My goodness, it feels like shopping; the clothes of an entire mall are actually mine!"
Han Yangting picked out a blue shirt with small flowers, a beige skirt, and a pair of low-cut Martin boots for her: "Try this outfit? Let's see if my taste is any good."
Bai Shuruo took the clothes and asked him, "Did you buy these all in my size?"
"Of course."
"What if I get fat one day? Wouldn't these clothes be a waste?"
"If you get fat, we'll just buy new ones," Han Yangting said. "It's just a few clothes; they aren't worth much."
Bai Shuruo looked at him with gratitude.
When she was a child, her father had promised to build her a princess room filled with the princess dresses she liked, but before this promise could be fulfilled, her father had his accident.
Now, it was Han Yangting who had fulfilled this wish for her.
She hurried inside to change her clothes and then walked out in front of him.
From his gaze, which was full of approval, she knew this outfit looked very good.
She also walked over to the mirror and was once again stunned by her own reflection.
She hadn't expected that clothes which looked ordinary in style would, after his casual pairing and given the quality of the fabric itself, seem to jump up several grades once she put them on.
Now, this outfit was both dignified and elegant.
"Brother Han, let's go with this one," Bai Shuruo said.
Han Yangting looked her up and down for a moment, then pulled open a drawer above the shoe rack.
It turned out there were several drawers of jewelry inside, including necklaces, earrings, and bracelets.
Han Yangting took out a thin gold necklace and said, "Let me put it on for you."
Bai Shuruo blushed and nodded.
He pushed aside the hair at her neck, lowered his head to fasten the necklace for her, and then hugged her from behind, his face pressed against hers, saying, "I can also apply lipstick for you."
She quickly said, "I'll do it myself."
"No, I'll do it."
He opened another drawer above, which contained a series of lipsticks in every shade.
He took out a "man-slaying" shade and bent down, carefully applying it for her.
As he applied it, he said, "If a man applies lipstick for you, it means he wants to kiss this mouth for the rest of his life."
She let out a "pfft" of laughter. First, he said tying a tie meant a lifetime, and now applying lipstick meant kissing for a lifetime?
Bai Shuruo asked, "A lifetime is so long. By the time I'm old and have no teeth left, you won't want to kiss me anymore."
"By then I won't have any teeth either, and I'll be old too. Isn't that just perfect?"
In Bai Shuruo's mind, an image appeared of an old man and an old woman sitting on a swing kissing... it actually seemed quite heartwarming.
"Alright, Ruoruo, let's go."
Bai Shuruo had fair skin, and being young, her eyebrows were thick, so she only needed a little lipstick to look radiant; she looked the same even without makeup.
She tied her hair up casually; after all, she was young, and the more casual it was, the more vibrant she looked.
They took a business car to the Baiyin Group.
There was a driver inside the Castle, and Ali also followed along.
Han Yangting and Bai Shuruo sat in the back row.
The rear cabin was very spacious, with a faint scent of leather inside, and the air conditioning temperature was just right, making it very comfortable.
But Bai Shuruo was still a little nervous.
She was following Han Yangting to his company; what would his employees think when they saw her?
After driving for about 40 minutes or so, they arrived at the underground parking garage of the Baiyin Group.
Then Bai Shuruo followed Han Yangting to take the president's private elevator up.
With a "ding," the elevator doors opened, and they went straight to the president's office.
There were several exquisitely dressed Secretaries at the front desk; seeing Han Yangting arrive, they all couldn't help but stand up and respectfully call out, "Hello, President Han."
Then they looked at Bai Shuruo.
Han Yangting only introduced her indifferently: "This is my wife, she is here to see the company today."
Then he introduced them to Bai Shuruo: "Linda, Bonnie, Nora, A Ji. If you need anything, you can ask them for help."
Bai Shuruo hurriedly greeted them politely and courteously, "Hello everyone, please take care of me."
Han Yangting's office was in the inner room; after he led Bai Shuruo inside, the several Secretaries outside all exchanged glances.
Although they didn't speak, their eyes already said everything.
"President Han's fiancée is so young."
"The key is that he is actually married."
"I didn't expect this; I always thought President Han didn't care for women."
"I heard it was a marriage by imperial decree."
"Forget it, let's not discuss our superior; it's against the rules."
"..."
Bai Shuruo followed him into Han Yangting's office.
Once inside, she couldn't help but exclaim again: "So this is the president's office; my god, it's exactly the same as what I've seen on TV."
