Chapter 1386: Chapter 1387: Asking for My Phone Number, Hmm?
Cai Wen asked curiously, “Who did you find to help you recuperate? I know an internist who’s quite skilled. If you need, I can introduce you.”
“Cui Jiangjing.”
“Cui?” Hearing the na, Cai Wen felt it sounded familiar, quickly realized, and said with sudden clarity, “Oh, that lad from the Cui Family. Seems like he got a dical doctorate from abroad and has so ability in dicine. Having him take a look works too. Take good care of your stomach; don’t let it turn into a serious issue.”
“Hmm.”
Checking the ti, Cai Wen whispered to him, “If your stomach’s not feeling well, you can go ahead. I’ll probably leave after sitting for another hour.”
Li Shengxiao glanced at his fancy wristwatch – it was almost ten o’clock. He estimated the ti, then looked up at Cai Wen and said, “I’ll just leave with you.”
The others had only sat down for a short while, and Li Shengxiao leaving now would indeed be a downer, so he moved his lips slightly, pondered, and decided not to persuade him further. He was then pulled back into the conversation by the others.
The atmosphere in the booth was lively.
The boss of Hongsheng was eager to please Cai Wen, and there were also people from the Trade Departnt speaking up for the boss of Hongsheng. As for Cai Wen, a slick old hand, both sides sparred back and forth, neither gaining an advantage over the other.
Li Shengxiao silently observed, his posture relaxed, leaning against the sofa with a languid stance that, paired with his aristocratic features, attracted more attention from the opposite sex than any aphrodisiac. A few girls, previously intimidated by his cold attitude, started to stir again, exchanging glances and trying to encourage soone to venture out and give it another try…
However, their subtle actions went unnoticed, as Li Shengxiao didn’t even glance in their direction, instead taking out his phone and scanning the empty ssage inbox. His eyes slightly darkened as his profile, illuminated by the faint light of the phone, beca even more striking, prompting a few girls outside the booth to keep turning their heads back to look…
He lowered his gaze, pursed his lips, and tapped open the WeChat ssages.
At the very top, the nickna [Little Demon Rong] was particularly conspicuous; he clicked into it.
The conversation was still on the ssage he had sent two hours ago. Below it, the little woman had replied with a Peppa Pig sticker at so point, the cartoon piggy’s head innocently topped with a colorful “Got it!” looking dumb and cute.
He wondered if she made it ho? If she called Gu Ming? Where did she go this afternoon?
Li Shengxiao’s thoughts drifted…
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from behind him, so close and so real.
“Hey handso, can I have your number?”
The rising intonation indicated the speaker’s good mood.
Initially, Li Shengxiao thought his longing had caused him to hallucinate, but when he turned around and t those eyes shinier than stars, his deep eagle-like eyes suddenly dimd. His voice was husky and captivating, as low as a nasal echo, “You’re asking for my number? Hmm?”
The last ‘hmm’ rose in tone, suggesting an unclear aning.
Rong Yan felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her head, her flirting hand frozen in mid-air. She almost wished she had a knife to chop it off!
Li, Li Shengxiao?!
Damn it, the man in the gray suit Chen Anchen referred to at the booth was actually… Li Shengxiao!
Her expression beca stiff, her limbs felt like they were frozen, and she watched helplessly as the man’s inscrutable gaze swept over her body from top to bottom. Foolishly following his gaze downwards, she saw her bare midriff and imdiately wanted to die of embarrassnt!
