Chapter 90: I Was Wrong......
The two stood facing each other at a distance of half a foot.
Ivy was still panting rapidly, and her smooth nose was covered with a thin layer of sweat. Owen looked at her inquiringly, waiting for her to speak.
"...... you," she asked slowly, "Are you alright?"
"Not bad, what about you?" he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Where have you been these days?" she asked eagerly, bothering to answer his question.
"Oh, the company is in a bit of a hurry, I'm on a business trip. He said lightly.
"Tell me about it......" she muttered, pouting.
"I was in such a hurry that I forgot to tell you, sorry. He shrugged lazily, his tone so nonchalant.
I was scared for him for so many days, and I was sent away in just two sentences. Seeing that he didn't care, Ivy was suffocated back from her belly, and she couldn't help but feel aggrieved in her heart.
"By the way, I've heard that someone is pretending to be my girlfriend while I'm not there. Owen saw that she was sullen and wanted to tease her to ease the atmosphere.
A joke, but Ivy took it seriously. The word "impersonation" poked at her self-esteem, and she felt like a joke.
"You're fine, I'll go to work. She shook her head and left, wishing she could disappear in front of him immediately.
Owen didn't know why, so he hurriedly chased after him and explained, "Hey, are you angry?" ”
Ivy buried her head, but walked faster and faster.
Owen sensed something was wrong, stepped forward and grabbed her arm, saying, "Don't be so stingy." ”
Ivy shook off his hand and said angrily, "Yes, I'm not only stingy, but I'm also stupid. ”
The two stood in the middle of the sidewalk, like a couple arguing. Passers-by cast curious glances, and a man with glasses turned around three times, waiting to see a good show.
Owen glanced at the man in glasses, his eyes were like sharp blades shining with cold light, and the man in glasses was as if he had been captured, he was so frightened that he turned his head and left.
Owen pulled Ivy under a tree on the side of the road, stroked her head like a child, and whispered, "Good, you are the biggest, smartest, and cutest person in the world." ”
"I'm the stupidest person in the world! I know that you have great powers, and I stupidly look for you all over the world, worrying that something is wrong with you, that I will never see you again. Her voice trembled with excitement.
Owen asked as if he had misheard, "You...... Worried about me, afraid you'll never see me again?"
"Yes, that's right, I'm so worried, but you're good enough to go on a business trip, and you should have said it before you go!" she scolded hysterically.
He was stunned, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I was wrong." ”
Ivy's heart softened instantly, and her resentment vanished. She bit her lip and didn't speak, bowing her head and drawing circles on the ground with her toes.
"Are you still mad at me?" Owen asked coquettishly when he saw that she didn't speak.
"No, I shouldn't be angry, you saved me, I haven't thanked you yet. She pouted and muttered, looking up to meet his fiery gaze.
The two of them were stunned in unison, and each turned his head and fell silent. The world seemed to stand still, and only the rustle of the wind through the leaves reminded them that time was still flowing.
"You don't look good, you have dark circles under your eyes. After a long time, Owen spoke.
Ivy lowered her eyes and walked forward. She has always been very arrogant and doesn't care about her image, but at this moment she can't help but regret in her heart: why didn't she dress up before going out.
The two walked slowly along the boulevard. The phoenix flowers that fell to the ground haven't had time to be cleaned, like a fiery red carpet. As the breeze blew, she could smell his scent, which was spicy, flamboyant, and seductive.
Ivy deliberately distanced herself from Owen, but as she walked, she unknowingly bumped into his arm. She shyly dodged away, and then stole her head to catch a glimpse of his reaction. But he just looked into the distance with a lot of heart, as if he was thinking about some important issue.
One or two hundred meters of sidewalk, the two walked for more than ten minutes. Owen stopped at the end of the road, turned around and asked, "Where are you going?"
As if waking up from a big dream, Ivy stood for a few seconds before saying, "Go to work." ”
Owen pointed behind him, "My car is parked over there." ”
"I ...... By bus. Ivy said half-pushing.
"Follow me, we're on the same road. Owen spoke softly, reaching out to pull her wrist.
The moment her fingertips touched it, Ivy felt her scalp tingle and her heart pounding. She flashed backwards like an electric shock, her cheeks flushed.
Owen saw everything in his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled in a shallow arc, turned around, and walked back with his hands behind his back.
