Zhong Li leaned against the car window with one hand propping up her head and said after so thought, "I’m fine on my own, I don’t want any extra thoughts or concerns."
Gu Nanxi’s distinct fingers casually tapped the steering wheel as he continued to drive with a silent smile.
The car soon stopped in front of Zhong Li’s villa. As Zhong Li unbuckled her seatbelt, she realized she might not have given him the address: "How did you know I live here?"
"I just happened to live across from you."
Gu Nanxi shrugged with a smile, getting out of the car with one hand in his pocket.
Zhong Li’s brow furrowed unconsciously. She quickly stepped out of the car and caught up: "Why do you have to live right across from ?"
"Are you suggesting I move in with you, to cohabit?"
"You’re crazy."
Zhong Li had already bought the house, so if Gu Nanxi didn’t move out, wouldn’t that an she would have to live across from him forever?
Zhong Li walked to the elevator in her high heels and pressed the button: "President Gu, could I trouble you to move out?"
"Why are you reacting so strongly? It’s just living across the door, are you afraid of falling in love with ?"
Gu Nanxi’s thin lips curved slightly, adding a touch of warmth to his deep-set eyes.
Zhong Li shrugged nonchalantly: "Whatever."
Just as she spoke, the elevator doors opened, and the two of them walked in together, almost simultaneously reaching out to press the button for their floor.
The next second, Zhong Li awkwardly withdrew her hand and leaned her body slightly against the elevator wall.
Gu Nanxi leaned in leisurely to her ear and spoke ambiguously, "We’ve already kissed, why are you still reacting like this, hmm?"
Zhong Li lifted her head, her cheek almost imperceptibly brushing against his thin lips, making her inexplicably nervous: "President Gu, please mind your manners, this is a public place."
"So you’re saying we can do whatever we want once we’re back in our rooms?"
Just as Zhong Li was about to respond, the elevator doors opened. She quickly pushed Gu Nanxi away and got out.
Gu Nanxi followed her out with a hand in his pocket, casually remarking, "You just blushed."
"President Gu must have been seeing things."
Zhong Li replied offhandedly, took out her keys from her bag, and went inside.
Gu Nanxi leaned against the wall, his long fingers absentmindedly rubbing his chin, and his deep, ocean-like eyes shone with the brilliance of a starry sky.
Gu Nanxi rarely used to smile, but ever since being around Zhong Li, he’s ward up, no longer as cold as ice.
.......
Han Xi woke up around three o’clock in the afternoon. She groggily sat up from bed, lifted the covers, and was about to wash her face in the bathroom when the phone on her bedside table rang.
Han Xi picked up the phone, glanced at the na on the screen, and pressed the answer button: "Manman, what’s up?"
"I heard from Feng Yi that this morning Han Yaxin took ng ng away, and wanted you and Han Siyu to jump off the building as a burial accompanint. Are you hurt?"
Although she knew that with Lu Jinghan protecting her, there shouldn’t be any danger, she still needed to hear from Han Xi directly to be relieved.
"I’m not hurt, it’s just that Han Yaxin got shot in the head."
"She deserved that, those who act recklessly bring about their own death. People like her don’t deserve sympathy."
Actually, Han Xi didn’t sympathize with Han Yaxin, she just felt a bit sorry that such a young life was lost.
