Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Your CEO act won’t work on
The confused Lin i nodded obediently and said earnestly, “Yes, I have a mission, and Weiwei is my little assistant—no, my invincible big assistant.”
After saying that, Lin i raised her eyebrows playfully at Ye Weiwei.
Ye Weiwei was filled with black lines, unsure how to respond.
However, Xiao Jinghan, sitting off to the side, rely repeated, “If you’re taking the mission in North City, Weiwei has to assist you.”
Lin i sensed sothing was off and turned to stare at Xiao Jinghan. “Cousin, why are you repeating yourself like a broken record? Is there sothing wrong?”
Xiao Jinghan’s eyebrows arched slightly, and the seemingly eternal frost on his face suddenly lted away. A streak of warmth appeared, dispersing the lingering gloom within him.
He smiled.
Lin i slapped her forehead, stunned again and again. She shuffled sideways like a crab toward Xiao Lingyun, her expression incredulous as she asked, “Is your brother—my cousin—possessed? He actually smiled!”
But Xiao Lingyun, long accustod to this, curved her brows and said, “Ever since Ye Weiwei ca into the picture, my brother went from being the icy mountain big boss to the silly son of a landlord. If you don’t believe , just watch!”
Right on cue, Xiao Jinghan put down what he was holding and stood up, walking toward Ye Weiwei.
The mont their eyes t, Ye Weiwei’s heart started pounding wildly. She kept stepping back, trying to avoid him, but it was futile.
Xiao Jinghan grabbed her waist in one swift motion, preventing her from escaping his embrace.
“Ye Weiwei, so this is why you’re with Ou Feimo?” His deep voice carried a faint trace of amusent.
He was soone with a complex mind and exceptional intelligence. He only needed a few pieces of information to deduce most of the truth.
He had already been investigating the connection between Ou Feimo and Ye Weiwei, suspecting their relationship was fake. After hearing Lin i’s words, he was now certain—the little liar had been deceiving him all along.
On Ye Weiwei’s side, her mind was in turmoil. She hadn’t expected to be exposed so quickly. Her gaze darted around, avoiding eye contact with Xiao Jinghan.
But Xiao Jinghan held her chin firmly and tilted her face upward. As a form of punishnt, he bit her lip lightly, then placed his free hand over her left chest to feel her heartbeat.
“Ye Weiwei, deceive again, and the punishnt won’t be this mild,” Xiao Jinghan said with a low chuckle.
God knows how happy he felt at that mont. He had been right all along: Ye Weiwei certainly had feelings for him.
Ou Feimo? Jiang Che? All lies!
Their interaction was sweet, no doubt, but Lin i wasn’t enjoying this public display of affection. She balled her hand into a fist, propping it under her chin as she lightly coughed before speaking. “Cousin, I don’t care what’s going on between you two. But we need to set so ground rules now, or you’re going to get Weiwei killed!”
The latter comnt imdiately ignited Xiao Jinghan’s anger.
He had montarily overlooked the fact that Lin i wanted Ye Weiwei to assist her with the mission.
And who was Lin i? An international police officer—her work involved life-and-death situations, and yet she was planning to drag Ye Weiwei into such peril.
Hmph, she wasn’t his wife, so she didn’t know how to cherish her properly!
“Lin i, find soone else!” Xiao Jinghan’s icy gaze was as sharp as shards of ice, piercing directly at Lin i. This wasn’t a suggestion; it was a command.
Lin i rubbed her temples, already anticipating this response from Xiao Jinghan.
“Brother, this mission has already been reported. All the materials and personnel have been set. There’s no way to retract it. Besides, we’re not in the sa system. Your big CEO act doesn’t work on here!”
