"Leave, I don’t want to see you."
"Everything was fine before, but after you danced with Qi Shangyu, you’re so resistant to ?"
Zhong Li forcefully pushed Gu Nanxi away, her clear eyes revealing sothing he couldn’t understand: "Hurry back, isn’t there soone waiting for you at ho?"
Suddenly, Gu Nanxi understood everything, a smile curled at his lips as he looked at Zhong Li: "Are you jealous?"
"Why would I be jealous? Who you stay with doesn’t concern , just let go of ."
Gu Nanxi’s slender fingertips brushed through Zhong Li’s hair, his thumb gently caressing her cheek: "She’s the daughter of my father’s current wife and her ex-husband. She just landed this morning and insisted on attending the banquet with , but she’s leaving soon and won’t stay with ."
Gu Nanxi reported everything to Zhong Li, noticing her discomfort and even a bit of helplessness on her face, his smile deepened further.
"Why are you... telling all this? We don’t have anything between us."
"As long as you nod, we can have anything between us right now."
Zhong Li awkwardly turned her face toward the window, just catching sight of Qi Shangyu below: "Why is President Qi downstairs?"
Gu Nanxi leaned over to take a glance below, his words tinged with jealousy: "Of course he’s thinking about you. From now on, you can’t be so close to him. The two of you even danced together at the banquet today."
"You were also dancing with another woman."
The mont the words left her lips, Zhong Li regretted them; she had practically confessed to being jealous.
Gu Nanxi’s distinct fingertips pinched Zhong Li’s chin, lifting it slightly: "Still saying you’re not jealous, hmm?"
"Just go back, I want to rest."
Zhong Li changed the topic in a panic, her heartbeat seemingly faster than usual.
"I think I could move in with you, or you could co to my place."
"Gu Nanxi, what are you thinking? Did I say I wanted anything with you?"
Zhong Li wished she could escape quickly now; his gaze was too deep, she feared she might accidentally fall into it.
Gu Nanxi leaned in close to Zhong Li’s ear, his voice gentle: "What do you want with ?"
"Could you just let go of ? I’m really a bit tired and want to rest."
Gu Nanxi slightly tilted his head, his thin lips brushed past Zhong Li’s cheek and landed on her lips.
This was the first ti Gu Nanxi kissed her, and she didn’t resist.
"If it weren’t for Gu Hanjun today, would you have admitted that you like , hmm?"
Zhong Li hadn’t thought about this question before; she didn’t even know when she started liking this man, but today, seeing him so intimately with another woman, she realized she was jealous and angry.
Before Zhong Li could speak, the door that wasn’t fully closed was pushed open again, and Gu Hanjun stood at the entrance with a suitcase, his expression complex as he looked at the two holding each other: "Here’s the key, I’m leaving first with Assistant Cai."
Gu Nanxi released Zhong Li, turned and nodded.
Gu Hanjun placed the key onto the shoe cabinet nearby, giving them one last look before finally leaving with the suitcase.
