Chapter 685: Chapter 685: Take Your Time, I’ll Wait for You_1
Then one minute passed, two minutes passed…Eight minutes passed, nine minutes passed…
Fifteen minutes also passed—
Jian Yufei still didn’t appear.
Ruan Tianling’s anger was worn away by the lengthy wait.
He figured it’s quite normal for women to be half an hour or an hour late.
They need to put on makeup, change their clothes, and do many things before leaving the house. They often dawdle.
He is a man, it’s no big deal to wait a bit longer.
Now he was only half an hour over wait time, still not an hour, there was still plenty of time to continue waiting.
Ruan Tianling tried to relax. He leaned back in his chair, resting a leg on his knee, hands interlaced on top. His posture was casual and nonchalant.
But no matter how relaxed he tried to appear, he couldn’t dispel the oppressive weight in his eyes.
He began to imagine why Jian Yufei wasn’t coming.
Whether she got caught in traffic …or simply forgot their appointment…
Or perhaps, something had happened to her?
A jolt of worry shot through Ruan Tianling, forgetting about his masculine dignity, he picked up his cell phone and dialed Jian Yufei’s number.
The phone went ring——ring——but the person on the other end didn’t pick up.
With each ring of the phone, Ruan Tianling’s heart rate increased, all the way up to his throat.
Could it be that something had really happened to Jian Yufei?!
He abruptly stood up, ready to rush out when the call was finally answered.
“Hello.” Jian Yufei’s low voice drifted from the other end.
Her voice had no fluctuations and could even be described as low-spirited.
But Ruan Tianling was so anxious he failed to detect anything amiss from her voice.
“Jian Yufei, where are you?!” he asked urgently.
Jian Yufei glanced around, not even sure where she was, “I’m outside.”
She was already out, she had already departed, she should get here soon.
Ruan Tianling heaved a sigh of relief. As long as she was on her way, he didn’t care about anything else.
“Get here as quickly as you can… no, take your time, I’ll wait for you.” he softly said.
“…” Jian Yufei hung up the phone without saying anything.

Ruan Tianling assumed that she was hurrying over to him so he didn’t think too much of it.
He settled back into his seat, more relaxed now.
He pocketed the ring on the table, cleared his throat, and began to reflect on his proposal lines.
He needed to rehearse a bit, to deliver the best proposal.
Thinking of this, Ruan Tianling couldn’t help but chuckle.
During company meetings, regardless of how big or small, he never prepared speeches in advance.
He was always able to perform at his best when he improvised.
And yet now, just for a proposal, he was even more nervous than an elementary school student giving a speech on stage.
If Jian Yufei knew what he was like now, she would surely laugh him to death…
**************
At this very moment, Jian Yufei was aimlessly wandering the streets like a lost soul.
She had been walking for what felt like hours, she had lost track.
She just knew to keep walking, to keep moving. When she was worn out, she paused to rest by the roadside. Once she had rested enough, she continued to walk.
Xiao Lang tried to stop her many times along the way. He even pulled her into a small noodle shop to eat something.
He ordered a bowl of noodles for her, adding fiery red chili oil. It was very spicy.
Jian Yufei usually enjoyed spicy food, and it would usually stimulate her appetite.
But at that moment, after a few bites, she found herself crying from the spiciness. Tears pouring uncontrollably down her face, and she couldn’t stop them.
