Chapter32 - When I'm with you
While walking, when they reached her home, they were totally unknown.
It seemed that both wanted to spend some more time together. However, why was it so?
With a tight-lipped smile on her face, she stopped in front of the main door.
"Umm... Well, then see you next time."
"Oh? Yeah, okay. Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
She stepped ahead and walked inside. While he remained there, silent. Puzzled about his feelings.
As soon as she started closing the door, he put his hand in between and stopped her.
Mustered up a little courage, and he came in.
Stepping back, she looked at him when he leaned forward.
"I don't want to leave regrets in life, Xia Na... I love you. Be my girlfriend."
Without letting her utter a word, he pressed his lips against hers.
She could feel his sincerity. Thus, she closed her eyes and kissed him back.
Their lips were melting, creating a delicious taste.
While her hands rubbed his head.
Totally lost in the moment, he took off his jacket and threw it to the floor.
They kept kissing each other, walking to her bedroom.
They glued their bodies to each other, causing heat in the room.
With their lips smacking together, she lay down on the bed with him on her top.
Taking her hand, he intertwined their fingers and stared deep down into her eyes.
"Thank you for being with me."
Saying, he planted a kiss on her forehead as she smiled. "Thank you for loving me, Ling Xiao."
A smile spread all over his face as he leaned forward and kissed her again.
.......................................
The delightful morning arose with a wintry day. There was frost on her window as she opened her eyes and welcomed a new day.
However, it was different and quite exceptional for her. There was someone who was cooking breakfast for her, which made her day already.
With a grin on her lips, she rolled down the blanket and walked to the kitchen.
...................................
She wrapped her hands around his waist, making him frown.
"Oh, you woke up?"
"Hmm!"
"I made breakfast for us. Get ready, or else you'll be late for the office."
As he turned around, she planted a kiss on his lips. "Thank you so much for everything."
.......................................
After a golden morning with Ling Xiao, she finally reached the office where her friends were waiting for her.
Both were stunned at the sight of her pink-flecked cheeks.
"Xia Na, since when did you become Xingyue?"
Shifting her gaze, Xingyue glared at her. "What do you mean, Tang Xue?"
"Ayo! You both stop arguing. We should live with love and peace."
Putting her bag on the desk, she walked towards the cafeteria while they remained dumbfounded.
"LoVe? What the heck is wrong with her?"
..............................................
After seeing a wild change in Xia Na's behavior, both gathered around the coffee table and gossiped about her.
"Don't you think Xia Na is being too sweet today?"
"Yep. It seems she also got infected by the same virus as you."
"What virus?"
"LoVe!"
"Yah! You--"
As she was about to say something, someone cut her words off. "Xingyue? Please, come with me."
Turning her head, she saw Ms. Zhang seeking her. "Sure, Ms. Zhang."
.....................................
Walking to her cabin, she saw Xia Na there as well, which made her confused.
"What happened, Ms. Zhang?"
"I need your help. There is a client meeting in the evening. But I'm busy with my family matters. Can you both go on behalf of me?"
"Sure, Ms. Zhang. We'll go there together."
"Thanks to you both. Remember to be kind to our clients."
"Rest assured, Ms. Zhang."
.............................................
Sitting on the chair, Xi Song kept knocking his hands on the table. "It's been late. How come Xingyue is not back?"
He kept checking on the time as with each minute, his heart was popping out.
He was too concerned about her.
Waiting no longer, he took his phone out and sent a message to her.
Xi Song: When will you come home, Xingyue? I'm missing you.
..............................................
Both had come to meet the clients, but they were feeling odd there.
Everyone was staring at them, making them feel uneasy.
One's eyes couldn't shift away from Xingyue. With an unfriendly smirk on his face, he approached Xing again. "Ms. Li, one more time. Let's drink together."
She already had over four cups of wine, which made her feel dizzy. However, she couldn't refuse either.
To keep her company's reputation, she slightly pushed herself and lifted a glass. "Cheers to our partnership and future projects."
With her shivering hands, she gulped it down and almost fainted when he gripped her arms.
"Aye! Ms. Li, it seems you're drunk already. Shall we stop here? Or will you drink one more glass for our recent project?"
"I'll, Mr. Wang."
She filled her cup again with the wine and gulped it.
All the time, Xia Na was there, helpless. She felt upset for not granting help to Xingyue.
She herself was alone, helpless, and stuck with morons in the mask of clients.
When she noticed those evil eyes, she immediately felt like throwing up.
No matter what, she wouldn't let anything happen to Xingyue.
Thus, she sought help from the most trustworthy person.
Xia Na: Xi Song, save your princess from devils.
