Chapter 167 – I’m Not Good Enough for Him
Chapter 167: Who Stole the Design Drawings?
Li Jingran knew in advance that Xu Wanwan was coming to the company, but this girl actually lost track of time while chatting with others. If it weren’t for Secretary Lin’s reminder, she probably wouldn’t have remembered him at this time.
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips in embarrassment. “I was colleagues with everyone before after all. It’s not easy to come here, so I can’t help but say a few words.”
Li Jingran knew that she was a person who valued friendship and loyalty, so he chuckled. “Why did you suddenly come to the company to see me this time?”
They had been together for so long, and if it weren’t for something, Xu Wanwan would never have taken even half a step into the company.
Hearing Li Jingran’s question, Xu Wanwan said, “I went to the art museum in the afternoon and got you something good.”
She opened her bag and took out a plastic bag from it. She handed it to the man with both hands.
Li Jingran raised his eyebrows in confusion and took it. “What?”
Something good from the art museum? Could it be that this girl got the design so quickly?
Xu Wanwan smiled. “You’ll know when you open it. It’s okay if you don’t like it.”
Li Jingran slowly opened the bag and looked inside. His thin lips slowly curved into a smile.
There was a very small self-portrait in the bag. The girl in the picture was holding a book. She was smiling and her pink lips were slightly curled. Her bun-shaped head looked cute and well-behaved.
With just a glance, he recognized that the person in the picture was Xu Wanwan.
He put the things away and said calmly, “Not bad.”
Xu Wanwan’s worried heart relaxed. She had thought that he would look down on it, but he actually said that it was not bad.
In that case, it should mean that he did not hate it, right?
“You came all the way here just to give me this painting?”
Xu Wanwan thought for a moment and said, “Yes! But this is not a sudden idea. I drew this painting a long time ago, so I’m taking this chance to give it to you.”
“Since you’ve accepted it, I’ll go back first.”
As she said that, she lowered her head and packed her bag, as if she had to leave immediately after the task was completed. There was no trace of longing on her face.
Li Jingran’s face darkened. “You’re leaving now?”
“Yes, I have to go back to the art museum.” Xu Wanwan had already packed up and was ready to leave. She didn’t notice anything wrong and said frankly, “I’ll go back earlier tonight after I finish dealing with some matters at hand!”
Seeing the girl’s anxious look, although Li Jingran was not very happy, he still compromised. “I’m off tomorrow. Do you have any places you want to go?”
Xu Wanwan was stunned.
Was he going to take her out to have fun?
“Uh… I originally asked Lin Jianan to go shopping with me. If you’re also resting, why don’t we go together?”
Li Jingran’s expression turned cold. “You can only choose one between her and me.”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips in confusion.
It was not like they had to choose one or the other. Why couldn’t everyone play together?
However, the man’s expression did not look good. Xu Wanwan recalled that he had not had a good rest for a long time. It was not easy for him to have time this time, so it was better to accompany him!
She curved her lips into a cute smile. “I choose you, of course. It’s rare for you to take a break, so I should accompany you more.”
Her words finally hit the nail on Li Jingran’s head.
So much so that even when Xu Wanwan had already left the Li Corporation, Li Jingran’s mind was still filled with her soft voice.
He took out the portrait from the bag, found a conspicuous spot on his desk, and placed the portrait on it.
This way, when he was tired from work, he could see the girl’s smiling face whenever he looked up.

After Xu Wanwan walked out of the Li Corporation, she bought a cup of milk tea while waiting for the bus by the roadside.
She held the milk tea and drank it slowly. Suddenly, she thought of the appointment with Lin Jianan tomorrow and felt a little guilty.
Fortunately, Lin Jianan didn’t hear what she said just now. Otherwise, it would be hard for this friendship to continue.
As she thought about it, she gave Lin Jianan a call.
“Hello, Wanwan?”
Lin Jianan’s teasing voice came from the other end of the phone. “How is it? Is there any progress in your relationship with Big Boss Li?”
Xu Wanwan held her forehead helplessly. “No…”
Ever since Lin Jianan found out about their relationship, she had been unshakably concerned about the progress of their relationship every day.
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little disappointed. “Oh, what’s that about?”
Xu Wanwan hesitated. “Well, it’s not easy for Jingran to have a day off tomorrow, and I want to spend the day with him.”
“Can we go shopping next time?”
Lin Jianan said, “Hey, I thought it was a big deal. Just spend some time with your Big Boss Li!”
“As your best friend, how can I let our friendship become a stumbling block on your way to love?”
Xu Wanwan was relieved when she heard that. “Okay, I’ll bring you a gift tomorrow.”
“No, no! Why don’t you tell me details of your relationship with Big Boss Li? I want to eat sweets!”
Xu Wanwan said, “…You should find a boyfriend too.”
Lin Jianan sighed helplessly. “I want to, but fate hasn’t arrived yet. What can I do other than be anxious?”
A bold idea suddenly appeared in Xu Wanwan’s mind. “How about… I introduce someone to you?”
Lin Jianan: “Who is it? Is it a friend of Big Boss Li or something like that?”
“Li Jingran is so outstanding, his friend definitely won’t be bad, right?”
Xu Wanwan nodded. “That’s true, but this person is not Li Jingran’s friend, but he is closer than a friend. And you’ve seen him before.”
Lin Jianan was stunned by her words. “Who is it?”
Xu Wanwan gripped her phone tightly and said three words word by word, “Li Xu. Yi.”
“Wanwan!”
Lin Jianan’s dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone. “Do you still want to be friends?”
“Li Xuyi has a big temper and is so willful. Who would like him?”
Xu Wanwan saw that she was so angry and said helplessly, “Don’t be so agitated. I just think that Li Xuyi is a decent person, and you two are a good match.”
“How is that possible? I’m such a gentle and understanding person. Why would I look for such a violent man?”
Xu Wanwan replied awkwardly. The car that she had been waiting for a long time had finally arrived.
She hung up the phone, got into the car, and mentioned the address of the art gallery. She looked out of the window with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
At that moment, everyone in the art gallery was in a mess.
Master Nanshan said angrily, “Whoever stole my design, better hand it over quickly! On account of the relationship between master and disciple, I can still give him a chance. If I find out, he will bear the consequences!”
The people below couldn’t hold back their gossipy hearts and couldn’t help but start discussing.
“It can’t be, who has the guts to steal Master’s design? Besides, didn’t Master say that whoever wins the design competition will be given this design?”
