Chapter 40: Cold as Ice
"Mr. Chen, good morning."
Li Xiang arrived at the office early in the morning.
She had to arrive earlier than Mr. Chen.
When Mr. Chen arrived, she stepped forward to say hello with joy, showing that her body had recovered.
"Early."
Mr. Chen looked cold.
Li Xiang ran to Mr. Chen and jumped a few times: "Look, I can go to work, thank you for taking care of me." ”
Mr. Chen didn't even look at Li Xiang, so he said, "Okay, then start working." ”
"Yesterday's meal was delicious, especially the two lion heads."
"Oh"
Li Xiang tilted his head and stared at the corners of Mr. Chen's mouth, and the jet-black smooth ponytail also slid over his shoulders.
"You're still shaved and handsome, hehe."
After Mr. Chen hung up his handbag, he stared at Li Xiang: "Go out to work..."
Li Xiang's smiling face slowly sank, and he stood in place in a daze.
She was stunned.
Hot face to cold ass.
The bright sunlight outside the window did not bring her warmth, but felt harsh.
Mr. Chen has gone from yesterday's tenderness and care to today's coldness.
He must have changed too quickly, like a flip book.
All of a sudden, Li Xiang's emotional expectations for Mr. Chen returned to the original state.
Mr. Chen saw that Li Xiang was still in front of him, and he had no intention of leaving, so he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
Li Xiang didn't seem to hear clearly: "Huh? ”
"Is there anything else I want to do with you?"
"No, no." Mr. Chen's words woke up Li Xiang, who was stunned on the spot.
She returned to her desk.
Scribbling on scratch paper with a pen.
Drew an anime, illustration of Hayao Miyazaki's "Howl's Moving Castle".
She has seen almost all of Miyazaki's works.
I like the pure and loyal love stories of boys and girls, and twists and turns.
She wants to be "Sophie" and win the heart of "Hal".
......
"Will it be because in the office, Mr. Chen doesn't want to fall in love on this occasion, he is a person who has a clear distinction between public and private."
"Will it be that someone else is sick that day, and Mr. Chen will do that to her."
"Could it be that Mr. Chen heard some rumors again?"
"Am I doing something wrong again?"
"Is she having an affair with all the women in private?"
"He probably doesn't like me at all, it's just wishful thinking."
"Or is it because he just pitied me for being alone in this city, without any relatives?"
......
Li Xiang is repeatedly guessing about the various factors that Mr. Chen is so indifferent to himself, and he is self-denying one by one
Several days passed.
Mr. Chen still has such a casual attitude towards Li Xiang.
We should talk about work, talk about work, and criticize as we should criticize.
In fact, Li Xiang also knew that nothing seemed to have happened.
It is reasonable to say that it is the leader's care for his subordinates.
But he obviously touched my face?
How can it be as if nothing happened now?
I'm going to ask him straight up.
Forget it, how can you ask?
What can I ask?
What if he says I'm thinking too much?
I'm so embarrassed like that, and it's embarrassing to work together in the future.
But if I don't ask him clearly, how can I have an answer?
Li Xiang's brain is constantly running like this......
There were two voices in Li Xiang's head tearing each other apart, but they didn't tell the winner.
She survived those few days, suffering from gains and losses.
What to eat is not fragrant.
Who doesn't sleep at night, can't wake up during the day, yawns all day long.
