Chapter 348: Forced to Open for Business
Su Jin saw Xi Chenxiao’s hesitant look and was a little puzzled. Why didn’t he eat it? Did he mind her dirty hands? Or did he not like crayfish at all? He looked at Xi Chenxiao suspiciously and asked,
“Didn’t you like it very much? Or you mind my peeling?”
Xi Tian watched Xi Chenxiao from the side and became anxious. The chairman was usually a workaholic and often did not have regular meals. Over the years, he developed serious stomach problems and could not eat spicy food at all. Xi Tian went up to explain,
“Madam, the chairman…”
Before he could finish, Xi Chenxiao gave him a harsh look. Xi Tian swallowed the rest of his words and shut up. He went back and stood at the side quietly. Xi Tian did not want to be punished for talking too much.
!!
Xi Chenxiao opened his mouth and ate all the crayfish meat in Su Jin’s hand. His tongue accidentally touched Su Jin’s finger. Su Jin felt it and her face turned red as she lowered her head.
Xi Chenxiao’s heart was inexplicably warm. Looking at the shy Su Jin, he felt even more uncomfortable. He slowly ate all the crayfish meat in his mouth, then he said with a cold expression on his face,
“Not too bad.”
Su Jin’s face turned even redder when she heard this. She did not know if the devil’s “not too bad” was about the crayfish or her finger. She could only pretend that she did not understand and continued to peel more crayfish. But she did not dare to feed it to the devil anymore and continued feeding herself hurriedly.
When Xi Chenxiao saw that Su Jin did not give him more peeled crayfish, he was actually a little disappointed. Although he could not eat spicy food, he felt it very sweet and delicious when the girl fed him.
Su Jin suddenly stopped feeding him actually made him a little disappointed. Xi Chenxiao did not know why, but he had become a little strange lately. His mood was always controlled by this girl. Whether it was good or bad, it was all related to the girl.
When Xi Tian saw that Su Jin did not continue feeding the chairman, he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Madam did not continue feeding him. Otherwise, the chairman’s poor stomach might not be able to take it and he would have to go to the hospital.
Xi Chenxiao saw that Su Jin was eating so happily and he really wanted Su Jin to continue feeding him. However, before he could speak, he felt a pain in his stomach. His face instantly turned pale and large beads of sweat dripped down from his forehead.
Su Jin panicked when she saw this. What happened to Devil Xi? He just ate a few mouthfuls of crayfish. Could it be food poisoning? But that’s impossible because if it was, she would be the first one to be in trouble. She asked quickly,
“Boss, What’s wrong?”
Xi Chenxiao endured the pain and reverted to an expressionless iceberg. He avoided Su Jin’s gaze and wanted to leave as soon as possible. He did not want the girl to worry, so he told Su Jin coldly,
“It’s fine. I still have a video conference. I’ll go to the study first. You eat here.”
When Su Jin heard this and saw Xi Chenxiao’s cold expression, she did not doubt his words at all. After all, Devil Xi had always been cold. It was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. She nodded as she said,
“Okay, then go do your work! Don’t worry about me.”
When Xi Chenxiao heard Su Jin’s words, he caressed her beautiful hair. This girl was indeed sensible. He would let eat here alone. The pain in Xi Chenxiao’s stomach was almost unbearable so he said quickly,
“Okay, then I’ll go first.”
Xi Chenxiao then turned and left quickly. Su Jin watched Xi Chenxiao leave exceptionally quickly, unlike his usual calm self. She thought that the video conference must be very important. Otherwise, why would the devil be in such a hurry?
There was still plenty of crayfish on the table. She could not waste them. Besides, they were delicious. Su Jin ate them all without a care in the world. It was an hour later by the time she finished. Su Jin went back to her room and took a shower.
When she came out of the shower, she realized that the devil was not back yet. After changing into her pajamas, she looked curiously at the study. Usually, the devil would be back by this time. Why was he not back today?
Su Jin’s curiosity was piqued. She wore her slippers and walked to the study to see what the demon king was doing. When she reached the door and found that the door was not closed. She was ready to push it open and see if the demon king was having a video conference…
