C176 Cancel the Agreement(1)
He had never known that the house without that woman was actually so cold.
Therefore, it would be better to just sit in this car and let him return to that house. Waiting for the woman upstairs to get off work. Furthermore, he would not allow her to stay up all night on duty. If it was really too late, he wouldn't mind dragging her home.
At seven o'clock, Xi Muqing was surprised. That woman clearly said that she called for a foreign delegate, but why had he never seen anyone send a foreign delegate in before?
Xi Muqing made another call to Lele upstairs.
"Have you eaten?" He asked her without batting an eyelid.
"Yes! The delivery just arrived." Lele was spouting nonsense as she busied herself with the work in her hands.
Xi Muqing frowned. "What did you eat?"
Lele put down the work in her hands when he asked this question. She was a little surprised. "Xi Muqing, what happened to you today? Why do you suddenly look like you care about me?"
Today, this man's way of doing things had already made her very uncomfortable!
" Come down! "
Xi Muqing did not reply her and only said indifferently.
Lele was stunned for a moment before she came to a realization. "You won't wait for me downstairs, right?"
"Come down..." The low and hoarse voice repeated.
Lele was speechless. She looked at the half-finished painting on the table and felt a little depressed, "But I have not finished the work in my hands."
"Let's go eat first!"
"I have already eaten..."
Still stubborn!
"But since I've been here since 5: 00 PM, I've never seen anyone come to deliver gifts!!" Xi Muqing coldly exposed her lie.
For a moment, Lele was so surprised that her small mouth opened into an 'O' shape. She did not even find her voice for a long time.
He had been waiting for her downstairs since five o'clock? But why didn't he tell her?!
However, Xi Muqing's actions made Lele feel even more strange!
What on earth happened to this man? Why would he suddenly be so attentive to her? To be honest, in the past, she had been cold to her, and she felt quite uncomfortable. But now, he suddenly treated her so warmly, and it caused her to feel a wave of panic from the bottom of her heart for no reason!
This man definitely did not seem like a person who would treat others so warmly! What exactly is wrong with him?!
"Wait for me..."
Lele quickly picked up her coat and walked downstairs.
As expected, Xi Muqing's familiar black Mercedes-Benz S350 was already parked at the entrance of the company.
As for him, he was still lazily leaning on the car. His eyes were piercingly cold as he stared at Lele, who was stunned at the entrance. It was as if she had done something terrible.
Lele walked over and brushed her long hair that was blown by the wind. She pretended to be relaxed and asked, "What? You look at me like that. Did I do something that made you unhappy again?"
Xi Muqing did not say anything. He only leaned sideways to open the car door for her and asked her indifferently, "Where do you want to go to eat?"
Lele shrugged. "Do whatever you want. It doesn't matter if you are just across the street."
Xi Muqing closed the car door. "Let's go then!"
After he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the zebra line.
Lele was stunned for a moment and quickly followed him.
The red light was grey and the green light was flickering. Xi Muqing stood in front of the zebra line and was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he stood there quietly, as if waiting for a woman who was moving forward like a turtle.
In the end, when she rushed over, the green light turned grey. The red light had already started flickering and it would take another minute.
Lele wrapped herself tightly with a scarf. The cold wind blew and she could not help but shiver. She kept poking her cold hands and asked him, "Why don't you go over first?"
Xi Muqing tilted his head and glanced at her coldly. His gaze finally stopped on her constantly poking hands. Then, he silently grabbed Lele's frozen red hands. He tightly held onto his palm and then rubbed it into his warm windbreaker pocket.
This ambiguous action of his caused the dazed Lele to be unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
"I'm leaving..."
After an unknown period of time, he suddenly heard his deep voice. He pulled the absent-minded ___ and walked towards the opposite side of the street.
"Xi Muqing..."
Finally, Lele came back to her senses and called him softly.
"Hm?" Xi Muqing only thought for a moment, but he found that the sky had started to snow again.
This winter was especially long...
And it was getting colder and colder!
"Did something happen to you?" Lele looked at him in confusion.
Xi Muqing frowned and looked at her vigilantly. "Why do you ask?"
"No!" Lele shook her head. "I just feel that something is wrong with you today! You... This kind of way of handling things is not you!"
Xi Muqing's heart was hanging by a thread and he relaxed because of her question.
The cold corners of his lips only smiled faintly. "What do you mean by not my way of handling things? Because I pulled your hand?"
... "" Lele lowered her head and was silent. Her face was flushed red.
The big hand in the pocket of the windbreaker could not help but gently stroke the back of her soft hand and once again tightly hold her hand.
His voice sounded like a whisper in her ears, "If I remember correctly, this is definitely not our first time holding hands..."
... ""
Lele's heart started to beat uncontrollably due to his sudden words.
