Chapter 71 - Perhaps She Was Too Sensitive (1/2)
Li Qin Yao hummed a little tune as she walked out of the bathroom. She dried her hair with the towel and sat in front of the mirror for her daily skincare routine. As Li Qin Yao was applying some eye cream under her eyes, her thoughts went back to everything that happened on the day.
The project proposal that she had prepared with her team was approved by the board.
Actually, Li Qin Yao did not harbor too much hope that the project will move on to the next step. When her grandfather had proposed her to take the project in B City, Li Qin Yao was hesitant.
A part of her told her to let everything go, but there was a part of her that refused to give in. In the end, Li Qin Yao decided to gamble.
If the shareholders reject her proposal, she would be disappointed but would take it as a sign that she should not go back into real estate. However, if her project passed through, she will take it as a sign that she needed to return and perhaps take the chance to clear her name.
Unexpectedly, with Li Mu Bai's help, they can proceed with the project.
She did not know why did Li Mu Bai had agreed to help her with his vote, or what did her grandfather had said to him. However, Li Qin Yao knew that Li Mu Bai will surely have an argument with her mother over this matter.
With a sigh, Li Qin Yao continued with her skincare routine. Whatever it is, today was full of happy occasions. Besides the project matters, she had successfully shot the ball into the hoop.
Thinking about it, she was really grateful for Zhang Yu Han's coaching.
The first time she had properly seen his face at the coffee shop to retrieve her phone, Li Qin Yao had thought that although he was good looking, Zhang Yu Han had this domineering vibe around him that makes people did not want to get close to him.
Unexpectedly, he can be so patient while he taught her to play. Who would have thought that the man she thought were too scary to sell insurance policy would have a gentle side as well?
In the past, while teaching her to play basketball Han Yue Xiu would often have that look as if she was going to kill someone whenever she failed to grasp what she had taught. Han Yue Xiu is a good friend and a good basketball player, but she is not a good coach.
At this time, Li Qin Yao was wondering if perhaps she was not so bad at basketball. It was just that, she had a bad teacher. With Zhang Yu Han's coaching, she had grasped the move clearly and had even scored once.
In the beginning, she was too nervous when he had spoken softly at her. Because there were just the two of them on the court, his voice was all she could hear. Which was why she could not focus and shoot the ball properly.
It took her a while to get used to his voice and stopped herself from getting affected by it.
As she thought about Zhang Yu Han, Subconsciously, her lips curved into a wide smile. However, that smile froze in place as she realized that her thoughts were full of that man.
Li Qin Yao was grateful that Zhang Yu Han had invited her out for a meal. It might be a coincidence that they both have not had their dinner yet. However, Li Qin Yao began to notice that something does not feel right.
Perhaps she was just too sensitive, but after all, she had met a few guys who tried to court her and had experienced Chen Hao's courting in the past. Somehow, she got the feeling as if Zhang Yu Han was trying to court her.
Was he?
Her neck grew warm up to her ears as she recalled how she had leaned on his chest as Zhang Yu Han tried to correct her posture.
The way he was looking at her...
Li Qin Yao laughed at herself and shook her head. ”Li Qin Yao, let's not think too much or you'll only embarrass yourself.”
Perhaps she was just thinking too much. There was no way that he was trying to court her. After all, they did not know each other for that long, or that well.
