“Okay, okay, it was sneaky. I’ll help you apply some medicine later.”
“Woof woof woof… Sister, you’re so kind. I like you.”
Shi Xuan burst into laughter.
Then, as she and the dog entered through the back door, she accidentally glanced into the living room and was shocked.
Xiang Mi’s “Cunning CEO Loves Jealousy” Chapter 5 “Darling, I miss you so much!”
A peach-pink sexy cheongsam, with slits reaching above the thigh, exposing her entire smooth, silk-stockinged leg, was intimately entwined around An Zhang’s tall, slender body. Her seductive lotus-like arms affectionately clung to his seemingly slender but very muscular chest, and her bright red lips left a fiery kiss on his cheek.
“That’s enough,” An Zhang frowned, looking helplessly at the woman clinging to him.
“Do you think I look good? I carefully dressed up early this morning.” The woman excitedly displayed her eye-catching outfit, tossing her brown wavy hair. Her heavy makeup made her purple-shadowed eyes look even more seductive. She provocatively swayed her hips and posed.
“Good, good,” he replied perfunctorily.
An Zhang tried to remove her arm, but she immediately pressed herself against him again.
Casting a flirtatious glance, her fingers traced circles on his chest, and she said in a coquettish, low voice, “Really? Are you feeling tempted?”
“Every man who sees you dressed like this will definitely feel tempted,” he responded with obvious indifference.
Only Shi Xuan, stunned by the scene, couldn’t detect the nuance. In her eyes, she only saw him intimately flirting with a seductive woman.
Ah, damn it, you damn dog, how dare you bite me there, I’ll definitely kill you!” Baying out a sharp cry that almost lifted the roof, the woman covered her lower abdomen in an unladylike manner, bending over in furious exasperation.
This voice sounds like… Shi Xuan looked at the woman with a slight surprise.
An Zhang was first stunned, then laughed out loud after understanding what happened.
The person, pained and frowning, glared angrily at the one laughing, “An Zhang, how dare you laugh! Your dog actually bit my precious lifeline, how are you going to compensate me?”
“The CEO is not my dog.”
“Do you think you can shirk responsibility by saying it’s not your dog after letting it attack me?” she shouted hoarsely.
“It really isn’t my dog. It belongs to Qiao Se. Qiao Se went to Paris a few months ago, and it was being kept by Qin Luo. It suddenly ran to my house a few days ago.”
“I don’t care about all that. Anyway, it attacked me on your property, and you need to give me an explanation.”
Shi Xuan, who had been carefully observing her, finally confirmed the identity of the woman who had transformed from a seductive girl to a crude shrew.
“You’re Xiao Jiang!”
He chuckled, “You recognized me.” He winked at her, “How’s my outfit, Shi Xuan? Pretty cool, right?”
After knowing his identity and seeing his provocative outfit, Shi Xuan suddenly felt like throwing up.
“Have you become a ladyboy?”
Jiang Zhiqi rolled his eyes impatiently.
“Pah! Who’s a ladyboy? I’m dressed like this for work.” He had spoken with Shi Xuan on the phone a few days ago and already knew she was returning to Taiwan, and then, as usual, he sold this first-hand information to someone at a very satisfactory price.
“Work?” She glanced at his provocative outfit, realizing for the first time that this guy could actually pull off a woman’s look quite well, not losing to a real woman.
Seeing her suspicious expression, Jiang Zhiqi pointed his chin at An Zhang. “I’m now a detective at the Radar Detective Agency. I’m dressed like this to handle a client’s case.”
“You’re working at the Radar Detective Agency? Since when?” she asked in surprise.
He stammered a bit: “Well… do you remember when I was fired by a company more than three years ago? Later, I coincidentally met An Zhang, who asked if I was interested in being a detective. I decided to try it out, and now I’ve been doing it for over three years.”
They had maintained contact through phone and MSN over the years, always knowing each other’s situations, except for this particular detail, which he had not shared for some reason.
Shi Xuan’s expression darkened. In other words, he had known for a long time that An Zhang was the owner of the Radar Detective Agency but had never told her. “Is that so? Seems like you’re enjoying it.”
Deliberately ignoring her displeasure, he laughed, “Haha, yes, I’m really enjoying it. Didn’t expect this job to be so interesting, quite suitable for my personality. Well, it’s getting late, Shi Xuan. We’ll chat another time, I’m leaving now.” Seeing the CEO nearby, Jiang Zhiqi narrowed his eyes and kicked hard, “Ouch!”
The CEO nimbly jumped away, causing him to kick the chair leg, crying out in pain.
“Woof woof woof…” Hahaha, big dummy. The CEO wagged his tail triumphantly.
“Hmph, don’t get cocky. I’ll settle the score with you another day.” He angrily threw out these words and pushed open the door to leave.
“So Jiang Zhiqi has been working under you all this time,” Shi Xuan looked at An Zhang.
“He’s doing very well. As he said, detective work suits him.”
“Did you already know from him that I was coming back this time?”
“Mm.” An Zhang hummed softly, not denying it, and looked at her with gentle eyes, asking caringly: “Did you sleep well last night?”
She had always been most vulnerable to his focused gaze. Every time he looked at her like this, her breathing would become rapid and her heart would race for no reason.
She lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze, responding casually: “Not bad. Oh, and… thank you for the blanket and tent. Otherwise, sleeping on the hammock all night would have made me catch a cold.”
“You’re welcome.” His soft voice carried a gentle laugh. When he took the blanket from her hand, he also held her hand.
She suddenly looked up, meeting his eyes filled with soft light, her heartstrings trembling. She wanted to pull her hand back, but he held it so tightly that she couldn’t.
“You… are holding my hand,” her voice was soft, feeling an electric current flowing through her body from his hand.
Just holding hands, why… did she still have such strong feelings for him?
“Young master, breakfast is ready,” Man Yi’s voice scattered the ambiguous atmosphere between them.
An Zhang released her hand, curving his lips in an unaffected smile.
“Let’s go eat breakfast. You have a lot to do today, right?”
“Mm.” She hummed and walked towards the dining room.
What did he mean just now? Was it just an unintentional hand grab? Looking down at her hand, she could still feel the lingering warmth.
At the dining table, the CEO had already jumped onto a chair, enjoying the breakfast prepared by Man Yi.
“If you dare to mess up any part of the house again, I won’t make food for you, got it?” Man Yi harshly tapped its head, threatening.
“Woof woof woof…” While eating breakfast, the CEO barked in protest.
The warm winter sun streamed in. Shi Xuan lowered her head, staring at her hand, biting her sandwich in a daze.
“Be careful!” Arriving at the police station entrance, Jin Yuanhao called out a warning, but it was already too late.
Shi Xuan missed a step on the stairs, stumbling slightly. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed her, preventing her from falling.
“Thanks,” she steadied herself and smiled, expressing gratitude.
He looked at her with concern, “What are you thinking about? You’ve been distracted all morning. Didn’t you sleep well last night? I told you, without living together, you definitely won’t be comfortable. I don’t know how Fang and the others arranged this, deliberately separating us.”
“No, I slept quite well last night,” she laughed and shook her head, not wanting to explain that her distraction was because of An Zhang. “I’m going to buy a coffee. Do you want one?”
