C17 (1/2)
Xi Yaoxin almost went crazy. She didn't want to remember a single word! But now, her brain was no longer under her control!
Annoyed, she scratched her head and shook her head. She couldn't take it anymore. When she was focused on her work, her mind had never been disturbed by a man before. Was this man a devil?!
Imagining Jin Yuting's expression when she sent the message, Xi Yaoxin felt like she was being stared at by his face, it was as if her hand was scalding hot, she threw her phone onto the workbench, as though she couldn't pry into her mind this way.
After a while, she picked up the phone again, looking conflicted. Should I reply?
Pretend not to see?
He wondered if he would just keep chasing after him endlessly.
Or reply, scolding him harshly? Let him have enough?
But, that won't do! When she thought of his cold and dignified appearance, she knew he was the kind of person at the top of the pyramid. He was so high and mighty that she couldn't bring herself to curse him out loud.
Xi Yaoxin thought for a long time before finally putting down her phone. She stood up and continued to smell the spices that Jin Yuting had people send over.
As the number of spices being examined increased, an incredulous expression appeared on her face, and behind it a solemn and complex expression.
On the other side, Jin Yuting sat in the car, constantly rubbing his phone, with a strange, nervous expression in his eyes.
After being questioned by Jin Lixin, he recalled Xi Yaoxin's previous words and intense reaction. He realised that the case was probably related to him, and then remembered how he bought the snacks the day before.
After that, he waited for Xi Yaoxin's reply, but after a while, there was no reaction.
After waiting for a reply, Jin Yuting then drove away.
In the next two days, Xi Yaoxin continued to improve the perfume formula. When she was tired, she dozed off on the workbench.
Because inspiration could pop into her head at any moment, even when she was dreaming, it would be related to something, and she needed to record it down as soon as possible.
Du Mo who was working seemed to be a different person, she did not dare to disturb her, and although he was worried that her body would not be able to take it, he did not have the courage to advise her to rest. She even sent three meals in, afraid that he would interrupt her train of thoughts.
On Monday, Xi Yaoxin brought a sample of perfume to the company and gave it to Jin Lixin: ”Lixin, I tried to adjust it more than ten times, and in the end, I made these four samples. Help me choose one.”
Jin Lixin received the sample. He could not ignore the fatigue in Xi Yaoxin's eyes and her dark circles as well as the pain and injury in her eyes: ”You did not sleep last night? How will you work today? ”
”I slept for three hours.” Xi Yaoxin forced out a smile and added, ”I just need to drink two more cups of coffee.”
Seeing that Xi Yaoxin was about to turn around and head towards the company's Blending Room, Jin Lixin anxiously asked. ”Did you do it out of a sense of responsibility? Or is it because the customer is Jin Yuting? ”
The expression on Xi Yaoxin's face stiffened and she paused for a moment. ”Lixin, no matter who the customer is, I will treat them the same way.”
”Then what is your private relationship with Jin Yuting?” Jin Lixin gathered his courage and asked.
Xi Yaoxin's expression changed slightly as a short period of thought flashed past her eyes.
Seeing Xi Yaoxin's expression, Jin Lixin's heart, which was on the verge of resurrection, started to sink, ”Yaoxin, did he use some sort of method on you? Don't be fooled by him. ”
”That's not it …”
