Chapter 287: Alone Time
Su Jin nodded obediently when she heard Xi Chenxiao’s words. She couldn’t just say no, could she? In any case, if anyone invited her to a meal in future, she’d bring Pang Lili along. That way, it would not be considered eating alone with someone.
Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin’s nod but he was still not happy. The jealousy he felt did not go away. His girl was too perfect and it’s highly likely that someone would s.n.a.t.c.h her away from him. He continued coldly,
“And don’t flirt with others, understand?”
Su Jin felt a little wronged when she heard this. She’s not flirtatious at all. It was others who approached her and flirted with her. She was innocent. Moreover, when others approached her or flirted with her, she had always rejected them. She protested quickly,
“I don’t flirt with others.”
!!
Xi Chenxiao glanced at Su Jin coldly and realized that she was dressed quite nicely. She was so beautiful that it was very easy for those young boys to fall in love with her. It was too risky. He replied expressionlessly,
“Also, keep a low profile. Don’t dress up too much.”
Su Jin felt really wronged when she heard this. She was only wearing her school uniform, yet Devil Xi called it “dressed up”. How could she tolerate this? She replied unhappily,
“Don’t blame me for being beautiful. If I really can’t do it, will you disfigure me?”
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin even more coldly when he heard this. He realized that Su Jin was still incredibly beautiful even without make-up. Her face was too attractive that people could not help but fall in love with her.
“It’s not that I won’t.”
When Su Jin heard this, she immediately retreated and looked at Devil Xi warily. This madman was capable of anything. She had better stay away from him to survive. He treated killing people like game. Disfiguring her would be a very small matter…
Xi Chenxiao looked at the escaping Su Jin and thought that she was silly but cute. The jealousy in his heart instantly dissipated. He gently stroked her beautiful hair as he said softly,
“Alright, how could I bear to do that?”
Su Jin, who was panicking and fearful, felt relieved when she heard this. She was afraid that he would act on impulse and disfigure her. She was not afraid of losing her good looks, but it would hurt so much.
Xi Chenxiao found it funny that Su Jin was so afraid of him. To calm her down, Xi Chenxiao took an orange and handed it to her. He smiled lightly and said,
“Alright, stop being so scared.”
Xi Tian was a little jealous when he saw this. When had the chairman acted so gentle towards them? The chairman read Madam’s file carefully today. It said that Madam was p.r.o.ne to carsickness, and eating oranges as she rode the car would prevent it.
Therefore, the chairman ordered that in future, there must be oranges in the car if they were driving her. Some oranges could be sour so the chairman changed his instructions to keep only sweet oranges in the car for Madam.
Su Jin carefully took the orange from Xi Chenxiao’s hand and saw that it was plump, bright-colored, and looked very sweet. She peeled the orange as she said earnestly,
“Boss, I’m your wife. If I’m disfigured, I’ll embarra.s.s you when I go out!”
Xi Chenxiao was using his laptop to hold a video conference at the time. He looked up at Su Jin when he heard this and reached out to stroke her beautiful hair. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile as he said,
“That’s true. That makes sense.”
Xi Chenxiao’s eyes were filled with a certain gentleness that even he did not realize. His heartbeat quickened as he looked at Su Jin. This girl was too important to him. Just then, a man’s voice boomed from the laptop.
“G.o.d, what the f*ck is going on? Brother, are you married? Sister-in-law’s voice is so pleasant, but it’s a little youthful. Is she a minor? Brother, well done! You found a young one this time around!”
Su Jin’s face darkened when she heard this. What the f*ck was this? Who would say such a thing? This person didn’t seem to be an executive in the company. She curiously tilted her head and looked at the laptop.
“Boss, are you in a video conference? Why didn’t you tell me?”
