C198 (1/2)
After hanging up on Jiang Ye, Xiao Yu was thinking about other things.
Suddenly, the instant he raised his head, his gaze inadvertently swept across the bookshelf. He would often flip through the book, and after walking over, he flipped through a few pages and soon the photo appeared in his field of vision.
Looking at the old black-and-white photo, Xiao Yu's pupils suddenly contracted. His slender white fingers slowly slid across the girl's face. Even after so many years had passed, she was still only seventeen or eighteen years old.
Seventh Night … It was also the day of her death.
It wasn't that he didn't want to spend Valentine's Day with Ye Yanxi, but on this day, his mind would involuntarily remember that day more than ten years ago when she had fallen on the ground, covered in blood, looking weak and dying.
That scene was one he would never want to touch.
Thinking of this, a tinge of melancholy appeared in Xiao Yu's eyes. He gently placed the photo back into the book and then returned the book to its original position.
That night, he did not take care of the company's matters. As if he had suddenly thought of something, he got up and went upstairs.
The door to the second bedroom was the same as the one he had closed. After pushing open the door, Xiao Yu subconsciously looked towards the bed.
If he saw it correctly, at the moment of opening the door, Ye Yan Xi's head had turned towards the window. However, when she was facing the door, she had heard the door open, so she had deliberately turned her head to pretend to be asleep.
Her small movements naturally caught Xiao Yu's attention. She sighed, and Xiao Yu walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.
How could he not know her?
Her thick eyelashes trembled, and under the bright light of the lamp, her skin was even whiter and shinier, just like the drops of water rolling on a lotus leaf. That soft and tender skin of hers made others want to take a bite out of it.
Even though she was thinking like this, Xiao Yu still put it into practice. She lowered her head and took a bite off her tender, water-like face.
Ye Yanxi, who had been pretending to be asleep, groaned in pain from Xiao Yu's actions and opened his watery eyes.
”It hurts.” Ye Yan Xi used her hand to push Xiao Yu away, her heart was filled with anger, ”Do you belong to a dog?” You want to bite me just because you say so? ”
She touched the place on her face where Xiao Yu had bitten her, and she could even clearly feel the bite marks on her teeth.
Xiao Yu was amused by her resentful expression.
”What? Stop pretending to be asleep?” Xiao Yu was in a good mood as he teased her.
Ye Yan Xi looked at him speechlessly: ”Even a person would be scared awake by you.” She would never admit that she was pretending to be asleep.
”Hmm? means you just fell asleep? ”
”What do you think?”
”What did you dream? Waking up with such a huge grievance? ” The corner of Xiao Yu's mouth raised, his face full of ridicule.
Ye Yan Xi's black eyes rolled around, ”Of course I'm going on a date with a beautiful man. It's that star with a very good figure. I've been scared by you and I haven't seen him at all.”
Suddenly, Xiao Yu bent down, his face magnified in front of Ye Yanxi's eyes, and her pair of black eyes darkened, ”Beautiful man? A star with a good figure? As good as me? ”
”Anyway, you've disturbed my beautiful dream, so whatever you say is your fault. No matter how good you are, don't you know that when a woman is sleeping, the moment you wake her up, she would want to beat you up?”
Xiao Yu's face darkened, ”Does that mean you still want to date that beautiful man in your dreams?”
Ye Yan Xi wasn't in the mood to joke, she looked at Xiao Yu with a tired expression.
”I still want to sleep. Go out and don't disturb me.” Ye Yanxi waved her hand and began to shoo her guests away.
However, Xiao Yu continued to indifferently sit on the edge of the bed. He had no intention of leaving. His gaze was fixed on Ye Yan Xi's face. His gaze gradually became gentle, gentle and mesmerizing.
Ye Yan Xi still coldly pushed away Xiao Yu's hand, her face full of disdain.
”So you don't want to see me?” Xiao Yu's expression darkened.
”I'm living under someone else's roof right now, so how could I dare to not like you? I'll have to see your expression first. Otherwise, wouldn't I be sleeping on the streets after being kicked out?” Ye Yanxi said to herself sarcastically.
”It seems that you truly do not wish to see me.” Xiao Yu sighed.
”Aren't you very busy? Why are you always staying here? ”
”The company's affairs can be dealt with anytime, not a single day's work, and there won't be any big problems.”
”So you intentionally teased me when you were free?” Ye Yan Xi's tone was terrible, she reached out to push him, ”I'm tired, I still want to rest.”
”You're not allowed to make any other arrangements tomorrow night.” Xiao Yu suddenly said as he stared at her.
Ye Yan Xi almost immediately raised her head to look at him. She saw that Xiao Yu's expression was a bit unnatural, so she was even more surprised.
”Tomorrow night?” Is there anything tomorrow night? ”
Xiao Yu paused before replying, ”After work in the afternoon, just come to my office.”
What? He had to spend the seventh night in the office.
Ye Yanxi was in a very bad mood, ”Alright, I understand. Come to your office after work. That way, you can leave.”
”Mm, then have a good rest tonight.” Xiao Yu stood up and instructed.
