Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Yu Minlan knew what the "rat" Xue Rui was talking about was.

But she thought about it again, it was actually quite vivid...

Apart from picking up and dropping off Gu Muxue from school every day, she was like a mouse hiding in a dark corner, spying on other people's happiness.

"Rat, my happiness seems to have lost its way."

Yu Minlan spoke in a self-deprecating tone.

Xue Rui patted the backrest of the driver's seat: "Don't say such discouraging words while driving."

"Okay, Boss, what do you think of my appearance?"

Yu Minlan looked at Xue Rui in the rearview mirror.

Xue Rui looked alert: "What do you mean? I don't like your appearance. After all, I am successful in my career and have a good appearance. The point is that I am only 18 years old this year. What do you mean by old Bangcai?"

"Boss, you're absolutely right. I'm not worthy of you." Yu Minlan agreed with a flattering look on her face.

Xue Rui felt that something was wrong with Yu Minlan today. It was obvious that she wanted to ask him something, so after boasting for a while, he asked in the manner of an elder:
"Go ahead, what do you want to ask?"

"Boss, you have a keen eye. I want to ask, don't you guys always like to give scores to girls? How many points do you think I can give?" Yu Minlan looked expectant.

"About 70 or 80 points." Xue Rui said casually. What other topic did he have?

"Not low." Yu Minlan couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Xixi and Muxue both scored 100 points." Xue Rui added.

"So it's based on a 100-point system?" Yu Minlan felt that Xue Rui's words were too venomous. She sighed and expressed her inner worries:
"Before I graduated, some boys would occasionally approach me, but I always thought about graduating first. But when I was ready, no one approached me anymore. Am I really getting old?"

But she just graduated from college this year and is only 22 years old.

"No kidding, you can give me 7 out of 10." Xue Rui said seriously, without attacking Yu Minlan again. He thought for a moment and responded:
"What you said actually has nothing to do with age. Haven't you noticed the changes in yourself over the past year?"

When he first met Yu Minlan, Yu Minlan's eyes still had the innocence and simplicity unique to students, and she would just endure it silently even if her interests were infringed upon by others.

And a minute ago, Yu Minlan was flattering him.

From graduation to work, students' temperament and thinking logic will undergo tremendous changes.

Influenced by her surroundings, Yu Minlan learned to flatter and cater to others, to seek profit and avoid harm, and no longer adhered to the truth that she believed in her heart.

"More mature and beautiful?" Yu Minlan said confidently.

Yu Minlan believes that her makeup skills and fashion sense have improved significantly compared to her college days.

"It's also more secular." Xue Rui said in his heart.

Yu Minlan now owns a Range Rover, and she has an Hermès bag that Gu Muxue doesn't want hanging around her waist...

Not everyone is like Lin Ruoxi, who is unmoved by the luxury goods that are within easy reach;
Not everyone is like Gu Muxue, who was born in Rome. For Gu Muxue's family, luxury goods are just a tool for social interaction.

Before people have these things, they will more or less use a "pragmatic" perspective to belittle these things, implying that they are "not worth it."

Once you have it, you will subconsciously maintain it and be proud of it.

Yu Minlan’s status just represents most people.

"Let me ask you, if you are a male college student, and you see a girl driving a million-dollar luxury car, carrying a bag worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and a lipstick she casually takes out is equivalent to his living expenses for half a month, would you still dare to chat her up?

Even if he is a middle-aged man with a successful career, he can find a prettier girl at a lower price. They provide more emotional value. You are neither good nor bad..."

Xue Rui said it very bluntly.

Yu Minlan looked confused. She had actually thought about this...

"Should I pretend to be poor?"

"No, are you very rich? Whose name does this car belong to?" Xue Rui was so angry that he laughed.

Yu Minlan was brought back to reality by Xue Rui's words. After all, she was just a maid.

"How do you usually introduce your hobbies to others?"

Xue Rui asked the question indifferently, trying to find out the reason why Yu Minlan is single.

“I like traveling…”

"Stop, there's something wrong with your first point." Xue Rui kept shaking his head.

"Everyone says so, and Miss Gu says so too." Yu Minlan muttered.

"Mu Xue uses her own money for traveling, and will also reimburse the other party's bill. Do you have the ability to do this?"

Xue Rui thought about his itinerary, which was almost entirely arranged by the girl alone, and there was someone to receive him from the time he departed to the time he landed.

"That……"

"Shut up. Listen to what Xixi says later. Listen carefully and learn from her."

Xue Rui interrupted Yu Minlan and analyzed the little girl from a third-party perspective.

This analysis is good, let's think about it carefully...

Perhaps the little girl herself did not notice at all how precious her qualities were in this era. It was only a matter of time before she was won over by Lin Ruoxi!
It’s a pity that Yu Minlan pretends to be an “emotional mentor” all the time, but in fact, Yu Minlan is not worthy of it at all.

It seems that he asked Yu Minlan to teach Lin Ruoxi how to fall in love?

In fact, the little girl herself is quite talented when it comes to chasing boys.

After all, he is the prey...

"I'll take a nap. Call me when you get there."

Xue Rui closed his eyes and said.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Xue Rui heard Yu Minlan's gentle reminder:

"Boss, should we just drive over there?"

"Stop by the roadside. I'll go over and give her a surprise."

Xue Rui opened his eyes. The world outside the car window was already painted with a layer of silver. The street lights on both sides of the road formed a dim barrier. Snowflakes were falling rapidly in the halo.

After getting out of the car and taking a few steps, Xue Rui saw that the office was brightly lit and figures passed by from time to time.

"Are you still working at this hour?"

Xue Rui muttered to himself, thinking that Lin Ruoxi might have forgotten the time.

It's not good to exploit employees like this.

He quietly approached the office until he reached the door, then leaned against the wall and slowly approached the window.

It was quiet, surprisingly quiet, just like the sound of snowflakes falling. Only the faint sound of keyboards could be heard in the office.

Xue Rui stuck his head out and looked into the window, his eyes suddenly widened.

He had never seen such a "weird" office.

To be precise, the atmosphere was very weird. No one was talking. Most people were concentrating on staring at their computer screens. Most people had a layer of dark circles under their eyes, which looked like panda eyes...

Soon, Xue Rui's eyes caught a tall figure.

Lin Ruoxi was wearing a black coat. One of the pockets was bulging with a piece of white wool hanging from it. Her slender fingers were holding two knitting needles...

Xue Rui couldn't help but look at it for a while longer.

What kind of office atmosphere is this?

The boss watched the employees work, occasionally leaning over to give instructions, but she was knitting a scarf in her hands...

If he had to describe it, it was more like a middle-aged female teacher giving evening self-study to her students while her hands were busy with needlework at home.

"Boss Xue, isn't Sister Ruoxi a bit too cruel? Why doesn't she leave work when it's snowing so heavily?" Yu Minlan asked in a low voice.

Xue Rui chuckled: "It's not that Xixi doesn't want them to leave, the question is who dares to leave first if Xixi doesn't leave?"

Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi looked out the window, dropped the half-knitted scarf in her hand, took out a ball of yarn from her pocket and placed it on the desk...

Xue Rui quickly turned his face away, bent his body, and pushed Yu Minlan to the door of the office to attract fire.

"Sister Yu, what are you doing here?" Lin Ruoxi shouted crisply in the office.

"Let me see why you haven't gotten off work yet." Yu Minlan smiled, but in fact she felt like her butt had been pushed.

But... Xue Rui simply looked down on "old women" like her. If she brought it up, Lin Ruoxi might even think that she was taking advantage of Xue Rui.

"Well, it's almost time. I'll leave after they leave. I'll stay and close the door." Lin Ruoxi said and urged everyone:
"It's snowing heavily outside, go home quickly."

Everyone looks at each other, waiting for others to take the lead.

Just as everyone was exchanging glances, an inopportune voice rang out in the office: "Boss Lin hasn't left yet, so I can't leave either."

Xue Rui listened to the childish voice and knew who it was.
Ma Dongdong is such a young king of curlers, he has a bright future...

"Well, you don't have to look at me. There's no one at home and it's okay to go back." Lin Ruoxi's tone was full of disappointment.

"I'll accompany Sister Lin to work overtime. If it snows heavily, I'll stay in the company." Ma Dongdong shouted.

Everyone's faces became uglier than the other when they heard this, and they cursed Ma Dongdong's ancestors for eighteen generations in their hearts.

It would be fine if this grandson was capable, but the key is that he works more than ten hours a day and posts work photos in the company group on weekends. Who can withstand such pressure?

They thought they were looking for a leisurely company, but they didn't expect such a catfish to appear.

And this beautiful female boss is also strange. She doesn't enjoy life on the weekend, but actually works overtime in the company...

Now, they haven’t had a single day off for half a month and have all been working overtime “voluntarily”.

While the boss's friend was coming over, someone started to murmur, "What's wrong with Mr. Lin recently? He used to leave before four o'clock..."

Wang Guoqing waved his hand and pointed at his mobile phone, indicating that he should talk in the small group.

Wang Guoqing: [You all don’t know yet, right? Mr. Xue is on a business trip recently, so Mr. Lin is not going back.]

Gao Yuan: [Who has Mr. Xue’s contact information? ]

Li Qin: [Don’t wait for him, a man should come and take this goblin away! ]

Ma Dongdong: [It must be me! ]

Wang Guoqing: [How did you get in? Who created this group? Kick Ma Dongdong out.]

Li Qin: [This bastard is too attentive. He calls me Sister Lin every day. I get goose bumps all over my body! ]

【Ma Dongdong was removed from the group chat. 】

When Ma Dongdong saw that he was removed from the group chat, he immediately became furious and shouted loudly in the office:
"Sister Lin, I'm reporting them for saying bad things about you in private, calling you a goblin."

Xue Rui almost couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this. While Lin Ruoxi was looking back in a daze, he tiptoed behind her and covered her eyes with his hands.

Lin Ruoxi suddenly froze in place, her body swaying as if she was frightened.

"You...you're back." Lin Ruoxi's voice trembled.

"Yeah." Xue Rui responded indifferently. Without any surprise, Lin Ruoxi recognized his claws.

Suddenly his arms felt soft and Lin Ruoxi turned around and hugged him.

Unlike Gu Muxue, the little girl's hug was oppressively warm, as if she wanted to rub him into her body.

After a brief hug, Lin Ruoxi held Xue Rui's hand and rubbed it continuously: "Well, your hands are so cold, they must be frozen."

"Keep me warm."

Xue Rui put his hand into Lin Ruoxi's neck to keep warm without saying a word.

Lin Ruoxi had tears in her eyes and held Xue Rui's hand, stroking her face continuously.

"Rui, this is your scarf this year, try it on."

Lin Ruoxi suddenly remembered something, took out a white scarf from the drawer, and wrapped it around Xue Rui's neck layer by layer.

Yu Minlan's eyes were full of envy. She stepped back a bit and found a place to sit down.

Ma Dongdong stared with wide eyes: "I wish I had a sister."

"No, it has nothing to do with my sister, it has to do with people." Li Qin retorted.

For example, his biological sister can only order him to run errands and is not as good as other cousins.

Ma Dongdong shook his head, feeling very content.

Recently, whenever Lin Ruoxi is in the company, he will definitely be there.

Because of the long hours of overtime, Lin Ruoxi often sent him and his colleagues home at night, and occasionally bought him food.

But the strange thing is that Lin Ruoxi never lets anyone sit on her passenger seat, saying that only the people closest to her can sit there.

And that position is his lifelong pursuit.

Wang Guoqing rubbed his chin and looked at the two people hugging in the office, feeling very uncomfortable.

Now that Xue Rui is back, they probably won't have to work so much overtime in the future...

But he just couldn't be happy!

Wang Guoqing opened the QQ group and typed the following line of words in a depressed tone: [Why am I not happy at all now? Does anyone feel the same? ]

Li Qin: [+1]

【+1】

……

The neat queue made Wang Guoqing feel a lot more comfortable, until an honest man suddenly disrupted the neat "queue".

Huang Zhe: [Because we have nothing to do when we return to the rental house.]

Li Qin: [Shut the fuck up! I didn’t ask you to really say it!]

Huang Zhe: [@Wang Guoqing, you asked first, and you are unhappy after I told you...]

Wang Guoqing: [This is so heartbreaking! If you say anything else, I’ll kick you out too.]

……

Xue Rui turned around, and now Lin Ruoxi had become a "pendant" on him, hugging his waist tightly and refusing to let go.

Xue Rui had no choice but to raise his hands above his head and make a "surrender" gesture.

He turned around and let Lin Ruoxi hold his waist from behind. He clapped his hands together to break the silence in the office:

"It's snowing heavily outside, everyone go home quickly. Overtime hours will be paid at double hourly rate."

"Thank you, Mr. Xue." Everyone applauded.

Lin Ruoxi smiled and said, "Well, everyone has been doing very well recently, let's go home quickly."

"Wow!"

There was a cheer in the office.

"Sister Lin, you finally smiled!"

Ma Dongdong was extremely excited, and Lin Ruoxi in his eyes seemed to come alive at this moment.

Not only was her tone no longer cold, but there was also a smile in the corners of her eyes. She was more lively and beautiful than before.

"These are my car keys. Anyone who lives far away can take it and drive away."

Lin Ruoxi left the car keys in the office and pushed Xue Rui out the door, as if she didn't want to stay for a moment.

After going outside, Lin Ruoxi took off her coat, held it above herself and Xue Rui's head, bent down and jogged towards the Land Rover.

"Xixi, don't catch a cold, put it on quickly." Xue Rui looked worried.

The little girl always worries too much. What's wrong with a big northern man getting caught in the snow?
"Rui, I just caught a cold recently and I have antibodies."

Lin Ruoxi did not accept Xue Rui's suggestion and wrapped Xue Rui's head tightly with her coat.

Xue Rui was helpless. No matter what he said, it would be useless. All he could do was to speed up his pace and let Lin Ruoxi feel less cold. (End of this chapter)
