Chapter 1177 - He Looked at Her Deeply (2/2)

Xiao Yi’s expression was calm and he met Xia Yanran’s eyes. “Do you know what the greatest risk in life is? It’s not daring to take risks. Only extraordinary people can do extraordinary things. In those fields that you mentioned, our corporation has on hand the most sophisticated operating systems. As far as I’m concerned, if there are good projects, we’ll naturally expand in that direction. My aim for the next year is for the annual revenue of the corporation to double under my leaders.h.i.+p.”

Well, he had always been arrogant.

Of course, he also had the ability.

Xia Yanran asked several more professional questions and he answered them one by one.

“Miss Xia, you still have two minutes.”

Xia Yanran looked at Xiao Yi’s unapproachable face, she gritted her teeth, asking, “Lastly, can President Xiao talk about your private relations.h.i.+ps? Recently, some media reports have photographed you dining with the Marquis’s daughter. Is President Xiao pursuing her?”

Hearing Xia Yanran’s question, Xiao Yi lifted his lips and laughed faintly.

He leaned against the chair, his posture lazy. “Is Miss Xia asking this question for personal or public reasons?”

Xia Yanran looked at his deep gaze and felt her heart throbbing in pain. If it was the Xiao Yi from the past, he wouldn’t make things difficult for her, would he?

Ever since she proposed to break up, she felt that he had changed when she interacted with him again.

“Public reasons of course.”

Xiao Yi stared at Xia Yanran’s face for a while and smirked. “It’s what you think it is!”

What an insincere and ambiguous answer!

Xia Yanran’s heart started to beat wildly. Was he really going to develop his relations.h.i.+p with the Marquis’s daughter?

“Miss Xia, time’s up.”

Xiao Yi stood up from the leather chair and retracted his gaze from Xia Yanran’s face without any reluctance, only indifference. Xia Yanran looked at him and felt like he was a stranger.

With that, Xiao Yi stood up and went out. As Xia Yanran looked at his back, she had the urge to rush over and hug him tightly.

She wanted to tell him that she regretted it.

And that she would never mention breaking up again!

But her legs were heavy as if they were filled with lead. Just as she had taken a step out, his phone vibrated.

He took out his phone from his pants pocket and answered it. “h.e.l.lo, Miss Zhen.”

Xia Yanran heard the words ‘Miss Zhen’ and her slender body froze on the spot.

From what she knew, the Marquis’s surname was Zhen, so this Miss Zhen was the daughter of the Marquis!

Xia Yanran’s heart was still sinking when Xiao Yi’s voice came to her ear. “Do you need me to come over right now? Okay, I’ll be there in about half an hour.”

After ending the call, Xiao Yi turned and looked at Xia Yanran.

He narrowed his deep dark eyes. “Miss Xia, you don’t look so good. Do you have something to say?”

Xia Yanran’s hands that hung by her sides clenched into fists, his fingernails digging into her palms. Her mouth opened and closed, and in the end, she said helplessly, “No.”

No?

A trace of irritation and coldness flashed past Xiao Yi’s eyes and his handsome face was as sharp as a sword. He nodded at Xia Yanran. “Good, very good!”
