C166 (2/2)

She felt like she had no backbone. She had said that she would no longer care about his matters, but she was just nervous because she was worried that he would have a stomachache. As expected, she could not be indifferent to him.

She handed him the water. ”It's a little hot, but you should drink it while it's hot. You just ate something cold, so your stomach might feel uncomfortable.”

Sheng Liang looked at her. From her reaction just now, he knew that it was Xu Yi who told her something.

Sheng Liang was not one who had slow reactions. He knew very early on that Qiao Xuan liked him, and sometimes he would say things that were too excessive just because he hoped that she could understand and stop.

The things he carried on his back were too heavy, and he was destined to never give anyone any promises, including Qi Luo.

They had been together for so long that he had never let anyone else know about their relationship.

It was just that, he seemed to be unable to endure Sheng Qian pestering him by his side. Especially with Senior's appearance, he finally realized that he had an extremely strong possessive desire towards Qiao Xuan.

This was the feeling he had towards Qi Luo.

”What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?” Seeing that he did not move the water cup, Qiao Xuan tensed up, but very quickly she realised she had lost control of herself, and her face immediately flushed red. ”I don't have any other intentions, I just …”

Sheng Liang looked at her playfully as he tweaked the hair beside her ear helplessly. He whispered to her, ”The water is too hot, help me blow on it.”

Qiao Xuan was startled for a moment, then lowered her head to look at his ambiguous gaze, as her face became even redder: ”It's not like I'm …”

She was not his girlfriend or lover, and she had no obligation to do so, but she swallowed the second part of her sentence anyway, because she realized that it sounded like she was losing her temper.

”Not what?” However, Sheng Liang closed in step by step as if he was watching a show.

”Nothing,” Qiao Xuan frowned, he turned and was about to open the door, ”I'll ask Xu Yi to buy you something else to eat.”

Sheng Liang suddenly reached out and stopped her, ”There's no need to trouble him, I'm not hungry anyway.”

The warmth of his body transmitted through her fingers caused Qiao Xuan's entire body to tremble as if she had been electrocuted. She hurriedly retracted her hand and said with her head lowered, ”How about we … ”Let's go eat outside …”

Today, Sheng Liang seemed to have changed into a different person, making it difficult for her to resist. She was worried that someone would come in and see their current state and misunderstand something.

Seeing that she was becoming more and more anxious like a little deer, the corner of Sheng Liang's lips curved up slightly.

He didn't know before that he actually had this hobby. He just wanted to see her flustered and bashful expression.

Sheng Liang followed behind Qiao Xuan, patiently waiting for her to explain the situation to him. Then, when she lowered her head and quickly walked past the office, he followed her into the elevator at a leisurely pace.

There were two female employees inside, when they saw Qiao Xuan, they immediately stopped joking around: ”Good morning, Boss Qiao.”

Qiao Xuan's face was still red, he didn't dare look straight at them, and only nodded slightly, before standing in front of them.

Sheng Liang stood to the side. From his angle, he could clearly see all the expressions on Qiao Xuan's face.

From the corner of his eyes, Qiao Xuan sensed from the corner of his eyes that Sheng Liang had been watching her the entire time.
