Si Hongqi raised a brow and was obviously clueless at what kind of secret she was talking about. "What do you an?"
Tian Ruyi sighed. "I know that you're gay."
"Huh?" Si Hongqi's face was full of question marks.
Unlike him, both Sean and the driver were shocked when they heard the words that ca out of her mouth.
It was a good thing that the car had stopped just in ti because of the traffic lights or else, those simple words of hers would have caused an accident.
"You don't have to deny it. I have already seen it. I know that you're gay." She had a gloomy and disappointed look on her face.
"Pff!" Sean tried his best to control his laughter but when he received his boss' glare, he held it in and coughed. "Excuse ."
"How did you co up with this blunder?" His voice was low and clipped.
She sighed heavily. Guessed he would continue to deny his gender since it could ruin his image. She took out her phone from her purse and finally showed the picture she took.
Si Hongqi's face darkened when she saw the photo. The temperature in the car suddenly dropped and everyone in the room could feel the iciness coming from him.
"I'm sorry for taking this shot without your permission… don't worry, your secret is safe with . I won't tell anyone about your relationship with Sean," she finally confessed.
"WITH ?!!" The poor man in front snapped out to her. His eyes looked like they were about to fall out of their sockets. It was a comical sight to behold.
Si Hongqi instantly deleted the photo before he turned his narrowed eyes at her. Soon, his eyes turned crescent as she flashed her a smile. There was a chilly irritation in his gaze as he spoke, "I'm not gay."
Tian Ruyi instinctively shrunk back on her seat. It was a good thing that there was a divider between them… that was until Si Hongqi decided to raise the armrest just so he could close into her.
"B-but the kiss…" she stamred. She has never seen a smile so scary that she felt the chills run till her bones! The authoritative bite in his voice was sothing she had heard once and that was during the ti where he threatened her not to hurt Lu ngjie.
"We didn't kiss." He inched closer to her until he had finally cornered her when he placed his palm against the window. "Right, Sean?"
"Y-y-yes—NO!! I an no! We didn't kiss!" Sean suddenly felt embarrassed when he realized that soone saw what happened the other night. He also thought that his boss was going to kiss him when he cornered him.
The driver gave Sean a weird look before he gazed back at the road as he continued to drive.
The smile on Si Hongqi's face widened but his eyes darkened. "See?" His smile was so alluring but at the sa ti… devious. "I think I should just demonstrate my straightness to you right now."
She flushed. Her hands fell flat on his shoulders in an attempt to stop him from inching close. He was so dangerously close. As her body craved the sensation of his touch, heat rushed through her veins. She had to control her inner desires for him. "T-t-there's no need! I believe you! I believe you!"
"Good girl." He patted her head.
When she saw him pull away, she heaved out a slow and shaky breath. She felt relieved and at the sa ti, disappointed. Relieved because he was not gay and disappointed because he didn't kiss her. He was harmful to her heart. So dangerous to her heart.
She felt like her heart was going to jump out of her just so it could hug him.
Tian Ruyi sighed inwardly as she facepald herself. Why was she acting so weird in front of him? She once read from quantum physics that certain things change state when directly observed. If so, in her case, she changed into a moron!
She was brought out of her thoughts when she suddenly felt sothing on her lap.
She blinked twice.
Si Hongqi had just placed a blanket to cover her legs.
Ba-dump!
She could swear that her heart had a mind of its own! How could it get so excited just by a simple sweet gesture from him?!
He probably realized that the dress she was wearing was short so out of respect, he gave her a travel blanket.
"A-anyway, why did you co tonight?" She asked.
"You didn't want to co to so I ca to you."
His words stopped her heart and ward her face. Why was he saying words that she could misunderstand? He really should stop saying words that could give her hope.
She turned her gaze away from him. Should she confess? It was embarrassing to do that when there were other people in the car. Tian Ruyi knew that she should let her feelings out or else, it would continue to make her feel restless. It would only make her needier of him.
An awkward silence enveloped the car. She was only able to breathe in relief by the ti they arrived at her place.
Si Hongqi went out of the car with her and accompanied her to the floor of her apartnt. They haven't said a word to each other at all. It was not like he minded it. He had other plans in mind.
"Here…" Tian Ruyi took off the coat from her shoulders and gave it back to him. "Thank you…"
His softened gaze stared right at her as he accepted his coat back. "Will you have ti for tomorrow?"
Si Hongqi was rather straightforward with his words when he asked the question from her. His straightforwardness caused her to blush. It was the reaction he wanted to see, especially when he found her adorable.
"Tomorrow… I'm busy." It was the truth. She had to attend a photoshoot for a jewelry brand. Aside from that, they were going to film a comrcial shoot in the afternoon.
He lifted a brow. "The next day?"
She shook her head again. "It's the first day of shooting for the movie."
"Then the weekend?"
Once again, she moved her head from side to side. "I have a headache coming this weekend."
"..."
"I-I an, I'll be attending a party on Friday and you know… there will be lots of drinks so… yeah… I'll most likely have a hangover the next day. I'll just ssage you once I'm available! Thanks for dropping , Mr. Si."
She mustered up her courage and decided to reward him with a kiss on his cheek. He saved her from the humiliation she was about to receive from Chu Huani. He deserved a reward.
Tian Ruyi hastily went inside her place after pecking his cheek, her body flushed with embarrassnt.
Si Hongqi was left speechless.
