Chapter 5

Jiang Ruolan thought there would be an end to these rumors, and everyone will gradually forget about it. After all, it was just rumored!However, in the end, she still had to admit that she considered it too light.Throughout the day, every editorial office in the company was shrouded in joy.There was still half an hour for her work to end. Jiang Ruolan tidied up her desk while thinking about how she should spend the next few days in the spotlight when suddenly the phone on her desk rang.She picked it up, tilted her head while holding the receiver with her chin and shoulders. After that, she continued to pack the documents on the table.Jiang Ruolan was stunned when she heard the details of the conversation. She finally put down the documents she had compiled. "Chen Jun? I don't know him. Editor-in-Chief, are you sure?"

"Aiya, Jiang Ruolan, don't forget your current identity. Even if you like to be humble and continued to deny it, everyone already knows about your relationship with President Xian. There will be many people who will take the initiative to invite you to eat in the foreseeable future. You have to adjust yourself first! After all, the Xian Family is no ordinary figure in H City. "Jiang Ruolan did not say anything, just put down the phone. After she ended the call with the editor-in-chief, her cell phone suddenly vibrated. She took her phone from her bag. The caller ID showed Han Xuegang's name.She tried her best to get involved in work today, but with just one call from him could cause her heart, which had been numb all day, to throb in pain again.She saw his name on her phone, thought for a moment, then immediately rejected the call. The phone was silent for about ten seconds, then rang again. That's still Han Xuegang.At this moment, Jiang Ruolan was in no mood to pay attention to her colleagues' gazes, who were sneaking glances at her from time to time.She glanced at her watch and waited for the moment when she could go out to work. She picked up her cell phone and was about to put it in her bag, but as she picked it up, it vibrated again.Jiang Ruolan gritted her teeth angrily and walked out of the office. She stopped in a remote area and answered the call quickly without looking at the caller.She cursed in a low voice, "You bastard, are you not done yet? You want me to scold you again?!"

Her throat had been sore since noon due to the fight that day. Now, her voice was hoarse like sand filling down her throat. At the same time, the tone of her voice sounded slightly harsh and angry.After a moment of silence, a clear and melodious voice came from the other side. "Miss Jiang?"jiang Ruolan's eyes were widening. She looked at the call list, and it was an unknown number. Her expression changed as she quickly put the phone to her ear and apologized. "I'm sorry, may I know who this is?"

"It's me, Xian Zihao."The club was one of the most famous luxury clubs in H City. Jiang Ruolan had just gotten out of a taxi when a young man came to greet her. He politely nodded at her. "Are you, Miss Jiang?"She paused for a moment while staring at the man in a suit with suspicion.Seeing the vigilance in her eyes, the man smiled understandingly and said in a low voice. "President Xian is here. He is waiting for you in the pool on the fourth floor."Jiang Ruolan nodded and walked to the clubhouse. By this time, the clubhouse was starting to get lively. They both took the elevator to the fourth floor. The clubhouse was somewhat secluded, with more elegant rental rooms. Passing the wide corridor, she saw a blue pool behind the glass door in front of him.Two people were guarding outside the glass door. When they saw her, they exchanged glances with the man before respectfully opening the door for her.Jiang Ruolan initially thought that it was because of the incident that allowed her to be so close to the rumored Xian Zihao. Now that she had come here to find him, she may have to undergo a security check or something to make sure that there were no dangerous items in her body before he was allowed to enter.Unfortunately, all of that was just in her imagination.She saw Xian Zihao swimming in the clear water like an experienced swimmer. He was wearing a black bathing trunk, and she could see his body clearly. Although his body was not entangled with muscles, he was not weak at all. His charming and beautiful figure wandered freely in the water, making her stunned.When she finally regained her sense, Xian Zihao had come out of the pool and was wearing a bathrobe. He walked towards her. "How long have you been here?"

"I've just arrived." "Sit down." He sat in a chair by the pool. He took a pack of cigarettes, and the sound of the lighter rang out clearly. The man's fingers covered with smoke as he glanced at her. "Come and sit down."Jiang Ruolan cautiously stole a glance at him, and she also saw that he was also sizing her up. She couldn't help but smile awkwardly."President Xian, I think I can give a reasonable explanation for what happened this morning. As long as you listen to it, I can--" "Why are you so nervous?" Xian Zihao looked at the woman in front of him. "I won't bite. Come here and sit down. "Jiang Ruolan opened her eyes wide and stared in confusion at the man in front of her. A faint smile appeared on her face as she thought of something, but she still did as she was told."Miss Jiang, are you really afraid of me?" His unfathomable gaze swept over her cautious face.Jiang Ruolan frowned and decided to be honest. "You are the President of the Xian Group. A legend. A prodigy. Who will not be afraid of you?"Xian Zihao laughed when he heard her words. He took out his cigarette, then said in a soft voice. "Miss Jiang, I am also human."His tone was seductive. In the end, his relaxed tone and humor made Jiang Ruolan felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She no longer sat upright and shyly tucked her hair.Shecould not deny that the man in front of her had attractiveness, whether his family background, current achievements, character, or appearance, really could influence a woman's conception of beauty.Facing such an extraordinary and wealthy man made her not dare to speak so carelessly. But with a little joke from him, it not only made her feel relaxed but also comfortable for her to see that under this person's hidden smile was a keen insight that was easy to grasp.
