As Xia Lan was eating, she did not realise that there was a living person at the door.
From what Xiao Ze said, his father only knew how to make breakfast, nothing else.
The man's eyes were as deep as the ocean, with a hint of amusement in them: ”Marry who?”
Or rather, he was staring at the breakfast in her hands.
”Is it delicious?” Gu Xi Jue squinted his eyes, with a playful smile on his face.
”Oh! Not bad, thank you Gourmet. ” Xia Lan thanked him sincerely.
”Stealing Boss's food so early in the morning, are you so poor now? ”You don't even have the money for a breakfast?” No matter how he looked at it, this woman was not someone who would lose face just for a meal.
”Snatch?” Xia Lan looked at Gu Xi Jue in confusion. Wasn't this brought to her by Xiao Ze?
”Otherwise? Could it be that you want a boss like me to bring you breakfast? ” The smile on Gu Xi Jue's face became even more mischievous.
This smile didn't contain any contempt or belittlement, but was instead one that was naturally proud and arrogant.
Seeing his arrogant look, Xia Lan thought for a bit, then understood that Xiao Ze's ghost spirit must have only asked the Gourmet to bring breakfast, it didn't tell him that the breakfast was for her right.
So that's why Gourmet felt that she was blatantly robbing for breakfast?
She couldn't help but find it funny. It seemed like both of them had been played by that little fellow.
Xia Lan did not sell Xiao Ze out, but asked back with Gu Xi Jue's words, ”I'm already so poor, Gourmet, will you give me a raise?”
”No!” The company has its own rules and regulations. As long as one has the ability, it's natural to raise one's salary. For people like you who make mistakes every few days, they can only deduct their salary. ” Gu Xi Jue rejected it flatly.
Xia Lan curled her lips. Luckily, she didn't have much hope and knew that Fascism didn't have any sympathy.
Gu Xi Jue sized Xia Lan up from head to toe, and laughed meaningfully.
He bent down with his face not even five centimeters away from Xia Lan and used one hand to pick at her lower jaw. ”However, if you really lack money, and make me happy, I can actually help you.”
The frivolous expression on the handsome face in front of him made Xia Lan feel extremely uncomfortable. What did he take her for? What did he take himself for?
Xia Lan smiled, picked up the sandwich that she had half-eaten, and handed it over to him. ”How about I return it to you?”
Gu Xi Jue glanced at the messy eating food and frowned, extremely disdainful. Why did he need to eat half of the sandwich?
This woman was not cute at all. She was so scared just by a joke, how could she be so honest?
”Alright, you keep it for yourself.” Gu Xi Jue put the half sandwich back into her hands, got up, and walked out.
