Chapter 129 – We Are Both Single (3)
Unfortunately, her self-sacrifice was entirely in vain. Zhou Qinhe, having heard her explanation, wasn’t angry at all. He rely asked gently, “aning you are not interested in anyone right now?”
The boss was so good at getting the gist of the discussion! Yan Shuyu contemplated for a few seconds before she connected all the dots and nodded happily.
Yes. Credit where credit is due. There was, indeed, no third person between them.
Zhou Qinhe looked at her intensely and said, “You are single. You currently have no subject of interest. There’s no reason why I can’t pursue you then.”
“……” The slow Yan Shuyu finally realized that she had walked into the boss’s trap again?
At this point in ti, she could no longer rebut what the boss had said, but she had also noticed the focus of the point he made. She replied intelligently, “Yes, you can pursue, but I can turn you down as well.”
As though he had heard a very funny joke, Zhou Qinhe’s brows unfurrowed and he showed the first genuine smile of the night. His profound eyes, touched by his smile, seed even brighter.
He laughed for a long ti. So long that Yan Shuyu started wondering if she had truly told a joke when he finally said in a soft and gentlemanly way, “Yes. You are right. We are both single. I can pursue you and you have the right to turn down.”
aning? Yan Shuyu really wanted to ask him what exactly he ant by that, but Zhou Qinhe had already stood up. “It’s getting late. Let walk you back.”
Yan Shuyu took a look at her watch. It was almost 10 PM and even Starbucks was about to close. She had no choice but to put aside all the questions that she had and said politely, “There’s no need. I can go ho by myself.”
Zhou Qinhe, looked down at her gently, talked a beautiful talk, “I must at least wait until you get inside the elevator.”
The boss, who had picked back up his chivalry, most certainly could make one feel like one was basking in the warm spring breeze. Yan Shuyu’s ex-boyfriend was already considered very pampering in the eyes of her friends. Song Minghao, however, being just a tad over 20, was no match to the sophisticated Zhou Qinhe when each movent of his radiated charm. This was also the first ti the inexperienced Yan Shuyu ca across a sophisticated man who could conquer her with just his bearing. She couldn’t help but waver a bit. When she ca to, she noticed that she was already nodding happily as she said, “Yes, yes.”
After she had co to, Yan Shuyu looked sothing like this: “(-ロ-)”. She had made herself speechless. Not wanting to let the boss bewitch her further, Yan Shuyu decided to remain silent on her way ho from the coffee shop.
For so inexplicable reasons, Zhou Qinhe didn’t engage in chitchatting on their way back as well. The two of them walked quietly inside of Yan Shuyu’s building.
Yan Shuyu clearly recalled what the boss had said earlier. As soon as she arrived at the front of the elevator, she couldn’t wait to say goodbye. “I am here. You should take off now~”
Zhou Qinhe seed to be in a good mood since he had laughed out loud. Even now, still with a smile on his face, he said agreeably to her, “Okay, good night then.”
He turned around and started walking away soon after he had said that. Yan Shuyu stood at the sa spot to see the boss off. He had only taken a few steps away before she heard the “Ding!” signaling to her that the elevator has arrived. Yan Shuyu walked inside of the elevator without any hesitation.
She carefully stepped inside her house and imdiately could hear the little kiddo’s rhythmic long breathing throughout the house. Obviously, he was in a nice, deep sleep.
