Saving Wang

Chapter 41 Dreaming

Knowing that Chen Kexin was going to come to him for training, Lan Xiao could not suppress the smile on his face. However, his excitement had since waned, so had his anticipation.

Looking at his disappointed expression, Chen Keren could tell that he was upset about Chen Kexin changing her mind at the last minute.

Chen Keren took a sip of red wine, squinted and said, "Are you upset with my sister?"

Lan Xiao shook his head and without hesitation, he said, "No." "How could I ever be upset with her? It is just that he does not dare to set his expectations too high when he remembers Chen Kexin's fickle nature."

"Really? But dismay is written all over your face." Chen Keren chuckled as she gave her honest opinion.

Lan Xiao smiled wryly and said, "I am not dismayed, you think too much."

Chen Keren stopped smiling and looked at Lan Xiao pensively. Although she did not have other thoughts about Lan Xiao, she had to admit that Lan Xiao fitted into the image of her ideal man. The only deviation was Lan Xiao's complacency and lack of competitiveness.

Chen Keren blushed when she suddenly thought of the conversation in Wang Weixi's office. She was struck dumb when he mentioned the word "fiance". If Wang Weixi had known her intention of replacing him with Lan Xiao as her brother-in-law, would he not be mad? Would Yi Duanfang believe her words? In that instant, Chen Keren was flabbergasted at her own thoughts. Why would she be thinking about that detestable newhalf?

She could only shook her head, feeling resigned. Too many things happened lately and she was probably overwhelmed.

Lan Xiao looked at Chen Keren who was deep in thoughts and asked curiously, "What are you thinking about, looking all happy?"

Chen Keren snapped back from her thoughts and said matter-of-factly, "Nothing really, I am going back to work."

Lan Xiao said gently, "Let me send you home."

Chen Keren neither accept nor turn down his offer. She simply up and left.

Lan Xiao got up from his seat and followed her quietly. They were currently at Lan Xiao's work place, where classes for "Training housewives" had just started today. To Lan Xiao's surprise, the number of people who sighed up for the classes was encouraging.

As Chen Keren tried to size up this medium enterprise, she could see that there was Lan Xiao's office and a gym on the upper floor, and the lower floor was where the housewives' training classes were conducted. It was break time at the moment and a few young housewives were seated in a circle, chatting away about their husbands.

When Chen Keren descended the stairs, all gazes were turned to her. Chen Keren, on the other hand, kept looking straight ahead and walked directly towards the door. Following closely behind her was Lan Xiao, who continued to wear a warm and gentle smile on his face. His gentlemanly demeanor had won the hearts of the many who were present.

Lan Xiao sighed as he looked on at Chen Keren's car rolled out of his sight. Finally, he returned to his office.

Suddenly, one of the women asked curiously, "Manager Lan, was that your girlfriend?"

Everyone looked at Lan Xiao with curiosity as he shook his head and replied, "No, she is like a sister to me."

A few among the women looked at each other. One of them adorned in a red dress said with a teasing smile, "Sister? Is there a difference between a sister and a girlfriend nowadays? Isn't there a song which goes 'sister, you sit at the bow of the boat, while I, the brother can sit at the stern'?"
