Zhao Yu's body was tense, and she didn't dare to move at all.
Although the result of Ji Sui kissing her was calculated by all means, but if she acts too proactively or too casually, her character's personality will collapse.
Ji Sui could clearly feel the stiffness on her body. It was a signal that he had crossed the line.

 

Immediately seperating their lips, he straightened up, when he saw she was so nervous and at loss, he felt so flustered that he didn't know how to react.
What happened to you just now? How could you be so impulsive?
He kept saying that Xue Zi'ang was bullying her, but didn't what he had done to her just now was outright bullying?
Annoyed, guilty, self-blame, fear... All emotions intertwined into one, making his already heavy breathing a little more rapid, he moved his lips, struggled for a long time before saying: "Sorry...I..."

 

At this moment, he thought that even if Zhao Yu gave him a slap in the face, it would be a right thing to do.
But still he couldn't help thinking, it's fine to beat him and scold him, but if she ignores him from now on, and refuse to meet him... A stronger sense of panic arises spontaneously.
"Zhao Yu..."
Before he could finish speaking, she had already shook her head: "No... No need to apologize... I..."
She bit her lip, her facial expression showed she was as panic as him, even more so than him. A bit embarrassed, "I...I don't blame you..."

 

Speaking of which, she seemed to be afraid of his misunderstanding, and hurriedly explained, "I mean... yes... I know you are a very good person, a righteous gentleman..."
Is he a righteous gentleman?
Hearing these words, Ji Sui couldn't help swearing at himself again in his heart.
What kind of upright gentleman was he?
If he was indeed one, he wouldn't have kissed her so abruptly just now, not to mention that she didn't even know what nasty thoughts that flashed through his mind when he applied the ointment on her just now.

 

"The ointment... is it done?" She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.
"En, it's done."
Zhao Yu quickly pulled up her collar, hurriedly got up from the sofa and walked towards the door: "Then I... Then I'll go back first."
Ji Sui also got up, trying to retain her from leaving, yet he didn't know how to voice that.
At the entrance, Zhao Yu thought of something, then turned around and ran into the guest bedroom where she lived for the past few days, and soon came out with a bag, she still didn't make any eye contact with him: "I... I came here to get something that I accidentally left behind, thank you for taking care of me these days, I... I'm leaving, goodbye."
After she said that, she went out without looking back, this time, she really left.

 

Ji Sui stared blankly at her flustered figure when she opened and closed the door, then the room suddenly became quiet and empty, he felt that all his strength was suddenly drained .
He listlessly fell back onto the sofa, when he saw the ointment, he felt the taste of remorse again.
Why is it so frustrating? Will she refuse to meet him in the future?

 

However, she just said that she didn't blame him, and the shyness on her face, her reaction really didn't seem to blame him, but more like... She actually had a special feeling for him? Otherwise, why did she trust him so much and dared to live in his house? Why she was willing to let him applied the ointment directly on her bare skin?
In addition to the remorse and worry, he couldn't help but feel a spark of hope in his heart.

 

In the days that followed, Zhao Yu didn't meet Ji Sui again, nor did she chat with him on WeChat, she even stopped interacting with Shi Yu's Moments, so that Ji Sui couldn't track her movement at all.
She knew very well that according to the current development progress, it was easy for her to enjoy his body, but what she really wanted was his heart.
If the progress was too fast, it will inevitably make him suspicious, and it didn't match the character she was potraying in front of him, so the more reserved and detached she is, the more he will worry about it.

 

"Order takeout or go out to eat?" Before twelve o'clock, Xia Nan couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Since Xue Zi'ang moved to the top floor, she also moved up. It was convenient for the three of them to get together and to work together.
"Let's go out to eat, I'm tired of takeaways, I don't know which one to call though." Wang Qi raised the voucher in her hand, "Don't waste the leftovers from last time."
"I remembered that I seem to have two more here." Zhao Yu opened the drawer and rummaged inside for a while, but couldn't find the voucher, then she suddenly saw a pair of shiny leather shoes appeared in front of her.
She constantly had a faint smile on her face, but after she saw these leather shoes, her face instantly turned cold: "What's your order, Mr. Xue?"
"Invite you to dinner."
"No time."

 

Wang Qi and Xia Nan didn't react to this. After all, they lost count on how many times this kind of drama has been repeated in front of them. One side was warm hearted, the other side had a cool detachment.
In fact, at first they thought it was satisfying to witness how Zhao Yu abused Xue Zi'ang, a scumbag who was looking for a substitute, but eventually they had became numb after watching too much of it. Now what they want to watch is "The Unknown Secret of the Domineering Uncle and the Ex-niece" .
It's a pity that the uncle had been very busy recently, and he didn't seem to have much contact with his ex-niece.

 

The two were chatting furiously on QQ, and suddenly heard the phone on Zhao Yu's desk rang. After she answered the call, she just smiled and replied, "Okay, President Xue, I'll come right away."
Then, without giving Xue Zi'ang a chance to speak, she got up and strode towards Xue Zhan's office. The sound of her high heels against the floor could be heard until she closed the door of the office.
Sneaking a glance at Xue Zi'ang's livid expression, Wang Qi and Xia Nan looked at each other, and immediately understood the meaning in each other's eyes: It's so cool.

 

Zhao Yu didn't know why Xue Zhan was looking for her.
Although she was indeed his assistant now, the step order was not quite suitable. If there is anything that needs to be done, Gu Shuyang, the special assistant of Xue Zhan, will directly instructs her, and there was no need for Xue Zhan to speak in person.
When she walked to Xue Zhan's desk, Xue Zhan gestured to the chair opposite him: "Sit."
Zhao Yu sat down obediently, and saw Xue Zhan pushing a bank card in front of her: "This is what the Yu family compensates you, Yu Fei also agreed, and will come to apologize to you in person."
Last time, she said that it was up to Xue Zhan's decision how to resolve her allergies issue, and Xue Zhan never asked her again about it. She didn't expect such result.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a while, Xue Zhan said again: "Or, do you want other methods of compensation?"
Zhao Yu smiled and put away the bank card decisively: "No, I am very satisfied, there is nothing more real than money in this world. As for the apology from Miss Yu, it is not necessary. Even if someone like her is willing to come to apologize to me, it is due to other factors, not because she really feels sorry for me. In fact, from the beginning to the end, she only think that people of our status deserve to be teased and trampled at will, so this hypocritical form of apology, there's no meaning to it."
She was talking about Yu Fei on the surface, but it could be heard by Xue Zhan's ears that it was obvious she is mocking Xue Zi'ang.

 

Staring at her for a few seconds, Xue Zhan suddenly asked, "Have you figured it out? Won't you give him another chance?"
Zhao Yu didn't answer, but boldly asked: "If one day, President Xue is also attacked by a woman, then used as a substitute and as a tool to vent her desires over and over again, will President Xue forgive her? Willingly reconcile with her?"
Xue Zhan was silent, the answer was obvious.
Zhao Yu laughed at herself: "I know, President Xue, you are his uncle, and you will definitely stand by him, but I... I'm sorry, I'm going to disappoint you."
Xue Zhan also smiled softly. "Why do you think I'm vouching for him?"
Zhao Yu was taken aback: "Aren't you?"
"No." Xue Zhan got up, took off his coat from the coat rack beside him, and put it on." Have a lunch with me."
Zhao Yu was stunned silent.
