Ning Fan had never expected that a casual remark from him would cause such great emotional fluctuations in Xu Ruolan.
Logically, it shouldn't have been the case. After all, Xu Ruolan was the president of the massive Xu Corporation, and her usual demeanor had always carried the shadow of a strong, powerful woman, revealing her feminine vulnerability only on the rarest of occasions.
But now, it seemed that this side of her was being exposed far too frequently in front of Ning Fan.
This was actually where Ning Fan's misunderstanding lay.
Because of Xu Ruolan's heartfelt trust in Ning Fan, she often did not bother to conceal her emotions from him as she would with business partners and subordinates.
One could say that the Xu Ruolan in front of Ning Fan was the most genuine version of herself.
"Alright, alright, I didn't criticize you, is there a need to be so angry? Today's deal didn't go through, and we wasted an entire day. We should hurry back to the corporation to work."
