755 Homme Fatale

Shen Hanxing could not help but chuckle. She looked up at Ji Yan with a sly gaze and said, “It’s your taste that is better, Mr. Ji.”

Ji Yan could not help but laugh. He and Shen Hanxing did not have many intimate actions. The atmosphere between the two seemed to be perfect and natural. There was a hint of sweetness in the ambiguous atmosphere, not giving anyone a chance to interfere. This scene made Qiao Xi’s eyes tear up. She couldn’t describe what she was feeling, and the tip of her tongue was bitter.

As if she suddenly realized that Qiao Xi was still standing there, Shen Hanxing turned around in surprise. “Qiao Xi, you still haven’t set off? Do you want me to get a chauffeur to send you there?” The area of the Ji family’s house was not small, and it would take a long time to walk out of the Ji family’s territory. Qiao Xi had made an appointment with a taxi in advance, but she didn’t know why the driver hadn’t arrived yet, causing her to be in such a predicament.

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes in a panic, her face instantly turning red. She waved her hands frantically. “No need, the car is waiting for me in front. I won’t make it in time. I’ll be leaving now.” After saying that, she picked up her suitcase and started running. At this moment, she was especially glad that she had changed back into her own clothes and was wearing flat shoes so that she would not fall down in a sorry state. She could run as fast as she could and escape from the two people’s line of sight at her fastest speed. She could escape from this embarrassing scene.

Shen Hanxing could not help but sigh when she saw Qiao Xi leave in a hurry.

“Sighing too much will make you age easily.” Ji Yan pinched Shen Hanxing’s chin with his palm in an overbearing manner and made her look at him. He continued, “Qiao Xi has too many thoughts. If she can’t figure it out herself, no one can help her.” He had thought that Qiao Xi was someone who could pull herself together in time the previous night and move out of the Ji family today. It was fine for her to be muddled for a moment, but what he was most afraid of was for her to be muddled for a long time. If she could not see her place and continued to be obsessed with things that did not belong to her, she would eventually push herself into a situation beyond redemption. But… none of this has anything to do with him. Ji Yan thought coldly, ‘She’s an adult now. Of course, she has to be responsible for her own choices. No matter what the end result is, it’s her own choice.’

“I’m just thinking that Mr. Ji is really a homme fatale,” Shen Hanxing sighed and pretended to be worried, but there was a hint of a smile in her eyes. “Is this the legendary saying that beauty is an original sin?” She had already done everything she could, and she knew that she had no regrets. If Qiao Xi still wanted to waste her time on a dead end, there was nothing she could do.

“Then you must look after me, my wife.” Seeing that Shen Hanxing was not affected, Ji Yan curled his lips and suggested seductively, “Why don’t you lock me up so that only you can see me?” His eyes were filled with eagerness as if he was very tempted by this suggestion.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Shen Hanxing was speechless. She slapped Ji Yan’s hand away and scoffed, “That won’t do. Mr. Ji, hurry up and go to work.” She pushed his thin waist and wrinkled her nose as she said, “If you don’t work hard, how are you going to support the family?”

Support the family? That was such a beautiful phrase. Ji Yan chuckled and bent down to kiss Shen Hanxing on the corner of her mouth. He then said in satisfaction, “Alright, I’ll go earn some money for you to spend now, my wife.” With that, he turned around and got into the car. The car started and gradually drove out of the Ji family’s territory. Ji Yan only looked away when he could no longer see Shen Hanxing.

“President Ji, this is your schedule for today.” Seeing that Ji Yan had returned to his senses, Chen Liang, the assistant sitting in the front passenger seat, handed over the tablet and reported respectfully, “You have a meeting later, it’s about…”

“Mm,” Ji Yan responded indifferently, but he did not take the tablet to check his schedule immediately. His well-defined fingers adjusted his tie and buttoned his suit again. His dark and threatening eyes glanced at Chen Liang as if he was hinting at something.

Three question marks appeared above Chen Liang’s head. What was going on? Was the CEO alright? His wise, cool, and noble CEO seemed to be expecting him to say something…?

Ji Yan could not help but frown when he saw his stellar assistant stammer. Was he so blind? He tidied up his expensive tie again and unwillingly adjusted the position of the tie clip with his hand.

Chen Liang’s mind flashed as he tried to probe, “President Ji, you changed your tie clip? This tie clip is really nice. It suits you very well.” As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Liang saw his usually quiet and cold CEO smile slightly. His always cold eyes had a hint of smugness as if he was asking Chen Liang to say more.
