Fall in Love with Mr. Nian Slowly

Chapter 1762. Weird for SuChapter a Cold and Aloof Person to Say that He Was Short of Money

We are a good match Xu Baohan lowered his voice slightly, but there was a deeper meaning in his last word.

An Lan was afraid that he would let his imagination run wild, so she quickly explained, Im talking about other peoples thoughts. Without understanding us, other people would think that our appearance and work unit are not bad and we are a good match. But in reality, we both know that our personalities are not suitable at all, and its impossible for us to be together.

What you said is quite contradictory. Xu Baohan thought for a while and concluded.

No, I said it very clearly, An Lan smiled. Someone as smart and wise as Chief Judge Xu would definitely understand.

Yes, its alright. Xu Baohan threw his head out of the window. The heavy rain that was pouring earlier had gradually diminished. Oh yes, I suddenly remembered that Lawyer An, you still owe me a meal. Since I have some time in the evening, you can treat me.

An Lan had a headache. Initially, the people in the courtyard had all misunderstood her. If they walked out together, they would definitely misunderstand her even more. Does a high-ranking person like Chief Judge Xu still want a treat from me?

Yes, I do. Xu Baohan nodded. Recently, the house is being renovated, Im short of money. Im a little tight.

An Lan:

It was weird for such a cold and aloof person to say that he was short of money.

I have to pay the mortgage, too.

Yeah, I heard from Nian Junting that youre good at investing in real estate. You have several houses. Xu Baohans deep gaze fell on her face. Thats good. I dont even have the chance to pay the mortgage.

With that being said, what reason did she have to turn down this meal?

Dont look like youre ready to die, Xu Baohan said after a moment of silence. After all, youre currently paid 1,800 an hour for consultation.

How do you know? An Lans expression turned odd.

I heard from my colleagues that youve been quite famous recently, Xu Baohan said as he shifted his gaze away.

An Lan didnt suspect anything. She had been quite famous on the internet recently, with more than 100,000 followers on Weibo.

Lets eat at the nearby family restaurant, Xu Baohan decided.

An Lan couldnt help asking, How did you know that I was free tonight

Youre going on a blind date again? Xu Baohan asked directly.

No, An Lan felt helpless. How much do I love blind dates in your mind? Let me tell you, the last time was my first blind date, alright? In the past, I always rejected blind dates, but you, Chief Judge Xu, have been busy renovating your house. Do you want to get married and move into a new house as soon as possible?

No, the new house is close to the court, its convenient to go home after the renovation. Xu Baohan asked straightforwardly, Do you want to treat me? I am fine with anything.

After he said that, he stared straight at her.

His gaze seemed to be saying silently, Youre so stingy that you refuse to treat me to a home-cooked meal even though youre paid 1,800 an hour for consultation.

No, its on me. Im very honored to be able to treat Chief Judge Xu, An Lan said, resigning to her fate. Where is the place? Please lead the way.

Theres no need to drive. Its a five or six-minute walk. Wait for me at the door, Ill go get the umbrella. Xu Baohan arranged.

At 5:30, Xu Baohan came out from his office with a navy blue umbrella. An Lan happened to be standing with her back facing him in the corridor. She was wearing a black and grey windbreaker with stockings and high heels underneath. Her ankles were sexy and her body was thin and straight, her almond-colored curly hair was tied up.

The fine rain drizzled down. She placed one hand in the pocket of her windbreaker and reached out with her other hand to receive it.
