Shao Zun’s voice cut in: “No way! So Young Master Gao comes here punctually just to ask how she’s doing? But that’s good too, saves me from being interrogated by this Young Master every few days. As the boss, I don’t want to be treated like a babysitter.”
So noisy! It was making both their hearts restless.
“How are you?” Xiao Yao suddenly realized this was what she most wanted to say. At this moment, she understood his three-word greeting differently.
“Not good.” His gaze had already melted like mud, with her figure sinking into it.
“Why… why?”
“Because of you.”
Because of her, he allowed himself to hide like a thief in the corner, his eyes stuck to the dark glass, waiting to shine again for her silhouette’s appearance!
Many times, he almost couldn’t help but want to open the car door, pull her in, and then like before, drive her away at full speed…
But he couldn’t.
He believed he could still give her a better, more reasonable outcome. At least he was still trying. In this process, he didn’t want to disturb her, didn’t want to burden her, he just wanted to quietly watch her…
But how could he respond with “okay” when her face no longer had that brilliant sunshine-like smile?
“Are you adapting to the new job?” He noticed she had lost more weight.
“It’s okay. President Shao takes good care of me.”
At this moment, Shao Zun, not wanting to be ignored, jumped in: “Don’t be so polite. But since you’re both so grateful to me, I can’t refuse. How about this, Young Master Gao, treat us to a meal. I know a great Japanese restaurant.”
“Dinner?” Lu Qing and Xiao Yao looked at each other.
“Yes, dinner. I haven’t had drinks with Young Master Gao for a long time.” Hoping to get him thoroughly drunk, and then…
Shao Zun cheerfully walked to his car, directing: “Xiao Yao, just ride with him… Hey, get in the car, why are you still spacing out? Don’t you want to go?”
Xiao Yao definitely wanted to! She craved their meeting! Craved hearing him speak… But afterwards?
She understood clearly that it would only make her more infatuated. Just as her thoughts were wavering, a pleasant ringtone sounded.
