Chapter Twenty-Six: Rumors Spread by Certain People
Listening to Xiao Hansheng's words, Qiao Xi's face stiffened, and he immediately reached out and pushed away the man in front of him, and jumped off his arms as if he was fleeing, with an unnatural flush on his white little face.
"No need, I'll wash it myself!" With a flushed face, Qiao Xi turned around and went directly into the bathroom, not daring to look back at Xiao Hansheng's face.
Xiao Hansheng looked at Qiao Xi's back as he left in a hurry, and a faint smile crossed his narrow eyes.
Compared with Xiao Hansheng, who had a happy face, Qiao Xi leaned against the wall of the bathroom and squatted down.
Originally, she just wanted to take Xiao Han's stiff diaphragm away, but she obviously underestimated the other party's lower limit!
Scratching his hair a little irritably, Qiao Xi's whole face was wrinkled.
Now as long as she goes out, she has to face Xiao Hansheng again, and the other party has obviously made up his mind to stay tonight.
But she couldn't stay in the bathroom all the time.
Thinking about it, Qiao Xi only felt that he suddenly had two big heads, and he only hated himself for asking Xiao Hansheng when he opened the door.
Squatting on the ground, Qiao Xi raised his wrist, glanced at the time on his wrist, and a glimmer of brilliance flashed in his eyes full of sorrow.
If Xiao Hansheng can't go out, then she can go out by herself!
Thinking about it, Qiao Xi stood up directly, but when his fingers touched the doorknob, he forcibly stopped his movements.
What if Xiao Hansheng follows after she goes out?
Twisting his eyebrows, Qiao Xizhu's lips were pursed, looking at the time on his wrist that had been almost midnight, he simply withdrew his hand.
It is impossible for Xiao Hansheng to wait for her all the time, let alone not sleep in order to wait for her, as long as she waits until Xiao Hansheng sleeps and leaves quietly, the other party will never do anything more, even if he wakes up and finds that she is not there, at that time, she has probably gone out to work.
Thinking of this, the look on Qiao Xi's face unconsciously relaxed a little, and he walked directly to the bathtub on the side and sat down.
Time passed bit by bit, and Qiao Xi's eyelids became heavier and heavier.
Shaking his head, Qiao Xi forced his eyelids and glanced at the time on his wrist again.
The hour hand had already crossed twelve o'clock.
Qiao Xi sat up straight, stretched his waist, and then carefully pushed open the door of the bathroom in front of him.
After pushing open the bathroom door, Qiao Xi also saw the situation outside, just like she had expected at first, the lights had been turned off in the bedroom outside, and the man who was still sitting in the bedroom just now could not see him at all.
Walking out softly, Qiao Xi approached the bedroom, and only then did he see the man on the bed clearly.
At this time, Xiao Hansheng was not as sharp as before, his narrow eyes were gently closed, and he couldn't see his expression, nor his emotions at this time.
Through the dim light, Qiao Xi looked at Xiao Hansheng's face that made many girls crazy, and smashed his mouth with some dissatisfaction.
Although he didn't want to have anything to do with Xiao Hansheng, he couldn't deny that the man in front of him did have a lot of charm.
It's a pity that she wasn't interested.
Sighing lightly, Qiao Xi didn't delay any longer, and left the bedroom lightly.
The next moment Qiao Xi left the bedroom, Xiao Hansheng, who was originally with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes, her dark eyes were deep, and she just looked at the direction Qiao Xi left faintly, her eyes were unpredictable......
Early the next morning, Qiao Xi got up a lot earlier than before, didn't dare to delay a little, and directly changed into a simple professional outfit before getting up and going downstairs.
Pushing open the door in front of him, Qiao Xi also saw the housekeeper who was busy downstairs.
Smiling slightly, Qiao Xi sat down at the dining table, "Uncle Fu, it's early." ”
Seeing Qiao Xi who got up early, Steward Fu also had a gentle smile on his face, and nodded towards Qiao Xi, "Miss, it's early, it's still early, why don't you rest for a while?" ”
Hearing Steward Fu's words, Qiao Xi's mind unconsciously appeared Xiao Hansheng's handsome face.
There was a trace of unnaturalness in his eyes, Qiao Xi disguised the broken hair around his ears, and said, "The company has some things to deal with today, and the press conference is in the morning, so go and prepare early, just in case." ”
The housekeeper listened to Qiao Xi's words and nodded clearly, "Then miss, aren't you waiting for Mr. Xiao to come back and go together?" ”
The smile on Qiao Xi's face froze directly on his face after hearing the housekeeper's words, and he didn't know what to react to for a while. But she still clearly grasped the key words in the housekeeper's mouth: "Xiao Hansheng is back?" He's already out? ”
If Xiao Hansheng has woken up, has he already discovered that she is not there, since he has discovered that she is not there......
Just thinking about it, the butler's voice could already sound again, "Yes, Mr. Xiao went to the morning exercise just now." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of opening the door behind him, causing Qiao Xi's entire body to freeze in place.
When the housekeeper heard the sound of the door opening, he also looked at the voice, with a respectful smile on his face, "Mr. Xiao, you are back." ”
Xiao Hansheng heard the housekeeper's words, nodded his head, and looked at Qiao Xi in front of him without a trace, but he didn't stay long, but directly bypassed Qiao Xi and sat down on the other side of the table.
Perhaps out of weakness, Qiao Xi looked at Xiao Hansheng's eyes with some unnaturalness, but out of etiquette, she struggled in her heart for a long time, and finally raised her head towards Xiao Hansheng and forced a smile, "Good morning." ”
"Early." Xiao Hansheng's thin lips opened slightly, just quietly looking at the newspaper in his hand, he didn't seem to have any mind about Qiao Xi because of yesterday's incident, as if nothing happened last night.
Because of something on his mind, Qiao Xi always felt like sitting on pins and needles when he sat at the dining table.
Taking a deep breath, Qiao Xi simply stood up directly, "Uncle Fu, I will let the secretary prepare breakfast when I go back to the company, and I will go back to the company first." ”
Qiao Xi then turned his gaze to Xiao Hansheng in front of him, "Xiao Hansheng, you use it slowly, I'll go first." ”
After speaking, Qiao Xi immediately picked up the folder on the side and turned to leave, although she looked calm, but the accelerated pace under her feet still completely exposed the emotions in her heart at this time.
drove the car and waited until the car stopped in front of the company, Qiao Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tightly held heart finally settled down.
It seems that because of yesterday's incident, after Qiao Xi walked into the company, the eyes of the people around her also converged on her in an instant.
Feeling the sight around him, Qiao Xi frowned slightly, and swept his sharp gaze towards the people around him one by one.
Originally, many people who watched the excitement hung their heads directly, looking like they were afraid of being noticed, but the unknown chatter around them never dissipated, but intensified.
"I heard that this meeting was stirred up by Qiao Xi."
"Don't talk nonsense, now Second Master Qiao and they don't dare to say anything, you don't know how to die if you are talking about being careful."
"But no, Qiao Xi is in love with the Xiao family, otherwise why do you think she is so confident?"
"It's not necessarily true that she is on the side, it can't be Qiao Xi's wishful thinking, and she is upside down on the pole, after all, she has this face left."
“……”
Listening to the surrounding discussions, Qiao Xi's heart, which had become disordered because of Xiao Hansheng, calmed down.
There was no anger in his clear eyes because of the conversation of the people around him, but he listened quietly, like an observer, listening to something completely unrelated to him.
"Mr. Qiao." When the assistant saw Qiao Xi standing in the gossip, his face became ugly in an instant, and he hurriedly took a few steps forward, and said coldly in the direction of the discussion just now, "What, you guys have less work?" Still have time to chew the root of your tongue like a? ”
As he spoke, the assistant's face became a little more aggressive when he looked at the people below.
The assistant's stern words finally silenced the voice of the discussion.
After all, they don't want to be involved in this kind of thing, let alone interfere with their own interests.
Qiao Xi looked at the employee who had completely quieted down in front of him, there was no trace of fluctuation on his delicate little face, and he was not at all relaxed because of the assistant's help, he just looked at the person in front of him lightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
Qiao Xi was silent just now, but it didn't make everyone feel too obvious, but now Qiao Xi smiled like this, which suddenly made everyone feel a cold sweat.
Obviously, that delicate face was a smile, but it didn't make people feel any relaxation, but with an indescribable palpitation.
Looking at the flustered eyes around him, the smile on Qiao Xi's face became a little thicker, and then he looked at the assistant beside him, and his lips lightly opened, "Xiao Chen, it's okay, just now I can get to know the company's employees well, and also let me remember a few more faces." ”
After speaking, Qiao Xi glanced meaningfully at the few people who had been talking about it before, just a glance, but it made those people suddenly feel like falling into an ice cellar.
Retracted his gaze, Qiao Xi didn't wait for the employees below to react, he had slowly retracted his gaze, and faintly spit out two words to the assistant beside him, "Let's go." ”
When the words fell, Qiao Xi didn't look at the few people behind him anymore and left directly.
Assistant Chen followed behind Qiao Xi, looking at the capable woman in front of him, with some distress and unwillingness in his eyes.
She has been by Qiao Xi's side since she entered the company, and she has felt everything Qiao Xi has experienced from the very beginning, the departure of relatives, the betrayal of relatives and friends, and she has watched her change from a happy and innocent girl to a strong woman who is now in charge.
Pursing his lips, Assistant Chen glanced at Qiao Xi carefully, "Mr. Qiao, do you want to warn the people below?" ”
Listening to Assistant Chen's words, Qiao Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and then he shook his head slightly, "No need, there are many people who were inserted by the second uncle among the people we discussed just now, and those who came in by virtue of their connections, but were incapable, were directly expelled!" ”
