Chapter 270: Chapter 265: Mr. Qi, I was wrong Chapter 270: Chapter 265: Mr. Qi, I was wrong As soon as she entered the high-end private room, Shen Yan slled a strong odor of smoke, her delicate brows furrowing slightly.
Inside sat a collection of business tycoons, both big and small. Upon seeing Qi Si, no matter their age, all stood up with smiles swiftly forming on their faces, “President Qi! We’ve long admired your great reputation!”
“It’s our luck to encounter the enigmatic President Qi here!”
“President Qi, please take a seat, take a seat!”
“This seat is great, President Qi, please!”
Everyone promptly gave up the chief seat.
So who didn’t know who Qi Si was quietly sized him up, those who had heard rumors without ever seeing him in person kept glancing over.
Seizing the opportunity, the greasy Mr. Bai “accidentally” bumped into Shen Yan as she walked to her seat alongside Qi Si.
Shen Yan, while thinking about how to explain herself to Qi Si, didn’t notice Mr. Bai’s sneaky move and staggered forward.
Qi Si, just about to ask her to sit down, turned around and caught her, his own body following suit as he sat down on the sofa and subconsciously wrapped his hand around her waist, steadying her as she leaned sideways.
In that collision and embrace,
The next second, Shen Yan found herself sitting on Qi Si’s lap, half of her body leaning into his embrace.
Shen Yan: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Witnessing this scene upon entering, everyone was a bit taken aback. As old hands in the business world, they reacted quickly, their expressions on their faces changing even faster.
The looks they gave Qi Si contained that certain sothing among n.
With an unspoken agreent, they all laughed, deliberately ignoring the little beauty in Qi Si’s arms and spoke to Mr. Bai: “Mr. Bai, the way things are handled here is a bit improper…”
Qi Si, with his arms around Shen Yan, breathed a bit more deeply.
He glanced up at Mr. Bai.
Just as Mr. Bai was about to smile, he beca stiff all over from Qi Si’s look, and could barely force a smile.
That gaze was sowhat terrifying!
Mr. Bai gave an awkward chuckle, then waved soone in from outside, and in ca a group of pretty girls. Each was dressed conservatively, their sweet or enchanting smiles actually bore an extre allure!
The tycoons sitting there, upon seeing these girls, maintained their expressions, but the gazes of so glued to the young won!
Shen Yan saw these people naturally summoning girls they liked to double up, and abruptly turned her head to look at Qi Si, her eyes sowhat cold.
Qi Si’s gaze was drawn to the pale legs draped over his lap and did not notice Shen Yan’s look.
The next second, Qi Si took off his jacket and laid it over the exposed legs of Shen Yan.
Shen Yan, seeing him cover her legs, initially interpreted it as a possessive gesture. But given the situation, any fluster Shen Yan felt from being “caught” instantly vanished.
She pushed against Qi Si’s chest with her hand, sliding off his lap to a seat next to him and let out an inaudible huff of cold laughter.
Qi Si’s pupils blazed with a dark fire for a mont, his body slightly tensing, his expression tightening.
This made him seem suddenly terrifying.
There was also a vague sense of furious wrath at being rejected by the little beauty!
Because of Shen Yan’s action, the atmosphere in the private room instantly dropped to freezing point.
Mr. Bai’s expression instantly turned ugly as he glared at the ignorant Shen Yan.
Qi Si, pressing down the tingling sensation from the slide of her legs, watched the scene before him with cold eyes.
Had he not run into Shen Yan in the elevator, he wouldn’t have sat here with these people.
“President Qi, about that…” the greasy Mr. Bai tried to say sothing to lighten the mood.
But then Qi Si stood up coldly, “The Bai Family’s hospitality, I’ve taken note.”
Even a fool like Mr. Bai could taste the undertone.
Qi Si despised this kind of event.
Shen Yan stood up, “Mr. Qi, enjoy yourself, I won’t be joining.”
She pulled off Qi Si’s jacket and strode past him to exit the room.
“This lady…” Mr. Bai, upset inside, was about to scold Shen Yan for being ignorant. However, he quickly realized that Shen Yan was not one of their club’s female employees; he had no right to scold or order her around.
And by that ti, Mr. Bai had also belatedly realized sothing.
Since she was acquainted with Qi Si, how bad could this woman’s identity possibly be?
Mr. Bai wanted to give himself a slap at that mont.
Not only did the other business executives cease their movents abruptly, but they also didn’t dare to look at Qi Si, repeatedly cursing Mr. Bai internally.
They had been discussing business smoothly here and had finally had an opportunity to get acquainted with the person in charge of the Qi Family. But now, it might be ruined by Mr. Bai, the fool!
Qi Si picked up the suit jacket with a cold expression and left.
Just as Mr. Bai was about to follow, a bodyguard standing at the door stopped him in his tracks.
Then, Mr. Bai saw Qi Si hurriedly approaching Shen Yan, who had left in a huff, and heard him quietly explaining sothing.
Mr. Bai’s eyes widened in shock!
Even though he couldn’t hear what the two were talking about, Mr. Bai knew he was finished this ti!
Shen Yan walked out of the private room, feeling an inexplicable sense of oppression in her heart.
In places she couldn’t see, did soone as eagerly sought after as Qi Si always have crowds of won flocking around him in any setting?
If she weren’t there today, would so other woman have taken her place on his lap just a mont ago?
Just the thought caused Shen Yan to feel stifled. If she had actually seen it, she would have been even angrier.
Shen Yan took a deep breath, suppressing this inexplicable feeling.
Turning to her side, she saw Qi Si catching up with her in a few large strides.
Her mood suddenly beca very calm.
“You’re leaving just like that, Mr. Qi?”
“I don’t know them,” Qi Si explained bluntly.
Shen Yan was startled for a mont before replying, “You don’t have to explain to , Mr. Qi.”
“I don’t like those kinds of situations either.”
“Mhm,” Shen Yan responded indifferently.
“Why are you dressed like this and showing up here?” Qi Si asked, a scrutiny in his gaze.
Shen Yan: “…”
“Your car is parked outside.”
Shen Yan: “…”
She had forgotten that car had also been in the garage, one that Qi Si had driven before.
Shen Yan felt guilty and annoyed at her own carelessness.
But then again.
She had disguised herself so well, and yet Qi Si had recognized her at a glance?
Shen Yan hurried into the elevator and frantically pressed the button to close the doors, but a pair of long hands blocked the door from closing, and those deep black eyes looked down at her from above.
Shen Yan offered a sheepish smile, “I… need to hurry ho to sleep.”
Qi Si stepped in and stood before her, almost pressing up against her.
The warm breath spraying on Shen Yan made her heart involuntarily contract.
Feeling his invisible pressure, Shen Yan’s scalp tingled as she reached out a hand to hold back his warm chest, whispering as faint as a mosquito, “I was wrong, Mr. Qi.”
Just when she thought she had a reason to confront him, the next second, he caught her out.
Shen Yan felt sowhat dejected.
Qi Si was staring at Shen Yan, with complexities swirling in his deep, shadowy eyes he himself hadn’t even noticed.
The next second, Shen Yan felt a tightness around her waist.
She saw the expensive suit jacket tied around her waist, knotted and then turned around to cover her sowhat short skirt.
Shen Yan looked up at Qi Si, whose expression was unreadable, “Mr. Qi?”
“The air-conditioning is set low.”
“Oh…”
Shen Yan looked down at the suit jacket tied around her waist and quietly laughed to herself, head bowed.
