Chapter 29: Long Time No See
"Woman, are you in a bad mood?" Ao Mingjie's handsome face had a smile as sunny as before, and he walked towards her gracefully.
Xia Xue muttered sullenly: "Knowingly ask!" β
She didn't believe he hadn't seen the newspapers and entertainment news this morning.
Ao Mingjie leaned down, propped his elbows on her desk, looked at her listlessness up close, like a withered rose's bleak face, his eyes flashed with a sly brilliance, and he said with a smile: "So, I'm here to comfort you!" β
The two of them were so close that he could clearly smell the faint scent of orchids on her body, and rush towards him with a sultry enthusiasm, he suddenly felt his throat dry, and subconsciously swallowed saliva, and the blood in his body involuntarily accelerated.
Xia Xue saw him leaning so close to herself, she subconsciously felt a sense of repulsion, she straightened up from the table, leaned on the computer chair, looked at him with a faint expression, but there was alienation in her eyes: "Vice President, it's work time, you ...... Let's go back to work! β
Ao Mingjie clearly saw the alienation in her eyes, and her heart felt hit by something, and it hurt a little.
He really put his hands on his chest and made a sad gesture: "Xia Xue, I specially left my job to see if you are safe and sound, but I didn't expect you to appreciate it, alas, you hurt my heart too much." β
It's not a question of me breaking your heart, it's a matter of me and you having to keep your distance! Xia Xue thought so in her heart, but her face smiled, and said: "I am in a much better mood now, really, vice president, you are busy with official business, and you have a lot of opportunities, how can a little secretary of mine be embarrassed to waste your precious time?" If the eldest brother of your family finds out, he will have to criticize me severely! Don't look at me as his quasi-fiancΓ©e, once I make a mistake at work, I won't be left with any affection. β
She looked like she was in trouble.
This is clearly to remind him of the cruel truth, and it is clearly to drive him away! Ao Mingjie felt that a large stone was thrown towards his chest, and he suddenly felt suffocated and painful.
He saw this morning's newspaper and knew that she would definitely be unhappy because the reporter slandered her and Fang Boyu for having a bad relationship, and Wan Feifei openly scolded her under the reporter's interview, and originally wanted to come over to make her happy like before, but he didn't expect that she would refuse people thousands of miles away like this.
Xia Xue, after all, you're afraid that I'll pester you, right?
Disappointed in his heart, he still insisted on saying his true words, his eyes and tone were extremely sincere: "I'm just worried about you and want to come and see you." β
Love, must be spoken, this is his Ao Mingjie's way.
What he wants, he will definitely go for it.
Xia Xue raised her eyes to look at him, a touch of complex emotions crossed her eyes, and suddenly, she smiled, her bright eyes were shining, flashing with a lustrous luster: "Vice President, thank you for your concern, with your concern, I am content, really, I am in a good mood now!" β
"Really?" His inquiring gaze smeared over her face, as if he were really thinking about the truth of her words.
Xia Xue smiled and urged him: "I'm really fine, you go back quickly." β
Ao Mingjie looked at him deeply and affectionately: "Then I'm really leaving?" β
She waved her hand, reassuring him.
He reluctantly left.
Xia Xue looked at the locked door and was finally relieved.
A busy morning of work, finally at 11:30, she turned off the computer, sat on the computer chair, stretched her waist, soothed the fatigue of the whole body, after stretching, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and then grabbed her bag, left the office, locked the office door, and walked to the president's office next door.
Gently raised her little hand, placed it on the wooden door, knocked gently, and the knock sounded under her hand one by one, responding to the tension and excitement in her heart at the moment.
It wasn't until he shouted: "Come in" that the corners of her lips rose unconsciously, and then she put her hand on the doorknob and gently pushed it away, and his meticulous handsome face leaning on the desk came into view.
Thinking of the heartless words he said to himself in the morning, her mood suddenly became nervous.
She slowly approached him with nervous steps, paused at his desk, stared at his handsome face, tried to raise a smile, and her voice was deliberately gentle: "Haven't you finished the work at hand yet?" β
Ao Tianji knew that the person who came in was her, he continued to look at his documents, did not raise his head, and only said coldly: "You go to eat by yourself, you don't have to wait for me." β
It was as uncomfortable as being splashed with a basin of cold water by him, the smile on Xia Xue's face suddenly put away, she felt a stuffy pile in her chest, which made her uncomfortable, and she couldn't help asking, "Are you still angry about the scandal between me and Fang Boyu?" β
Ao Tianji's expression was slightly stunned, and he slowly raised his head and looked at her silently, but his handsome face was expressionless.
His dark eyes were unfathomable, as if shrouded in clouds and mist, and it was impossible to see.
"Yes, about last night's incident, I did something wrong, I shouldn't have taken the initiative to hug Fang Boyu because of a moment of pity, but I have generously admitted my mistake to you, I will not make the same mistake again in the future, and it is just a simple hug, do you need to mind so much?" Xia Xue's chest rose and fell, her emotions were slightly excited, and she stared at him stubbornly, but she was nervously expecting his reaction.
A touch of complicated emotions crossed Ao Tianji's eyes, but they disappeared too quickly for her to capture, and she heard his cold voice like just now, which sounded in a moment after the silence: "I work a lot, I can't take a break." β
He was just unhappy, unhappy that she took the initiative to hug Fang Boyu, and even more unhappy that she said that she felt pitiful to Fang Boyu and wanted to give Fang Boyu warmth.
She sympathizes with poor Fang Boyu, so what is he, a prospective fiancΓ© and a prospective husband?
This is clearly his excuse! He didn't want to reconcile with her, he didn't want to accept her apology...... Xia Xue should have felt angry, but she felt a chill on the soles of her feet, spreading up from the soles of her feet, chilling her heart.
Ao Tianji, count you ruthless!
She stubbornly turned around and walked away quickly.
The door slammed shut.
The cold, hard wooden door, like a layer of ice on the periphery of their hearts, separated them from the two worlds.
With the sound of the door "bang", Ao Tianji's handsome face was quickly covered with a layer of frost.
In the evening, Lido Hotel, VIP box.
Ao Mingjie, who was wearing a brown trench coat and had a tall and tall figure, pushed open the door of the box, and when Yanqing caught Wan Jiayao, who was sitting at the round table and looking forward to it, he showed a high-spirited smile and asked, "Mr. Wan, long time no see!" β
He closed the door casually.
