The night was beautiful, and looking down from the top of the tall building, it was even more beautiful. It was both beautiful and spectacular, like a city paved with gold. It was simply amazing.
Xia Xinxin stood in front of the window, gazing at the city in the darkness. Everything seemed hazy, as if she was in a dream.
Ji Mucheng was holding a gla.s.s of red wine, sitting on the sofa with his long and slender legs crossed. His rare leisure time made him look lazy and graceful.
He seemed to be tasting fine wine, but his eyes were focused on the woman standing in front of him, enjoying the view of the sky.
Ever since he met this woman, he realized that her life was very simple, and the good thing was that this person seemed very simple, and didn"t have that many complex things.
Xia Xinyan turned around and met the gaze of the man. She blushed and purposely asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Looking at you?" The man answered straightforwardly.
"What do I have to look at?" Xia Xinyan pretended not to care, but her heart started pounding rapidly.
Being stared at by him like a wolf and tiger, she was still a little u
atural, her breathing was tight.
"Of course you have a good look. Otherwise, why would you keep grabbing onto my eyes?" The man"s voice dropped a few inches, blaming her for the blame.
"What nonsense are you spouting? It"s obviously you ??" Xia Xinyan suddenly realized that she had been tricked by him.
When Ji Mu Cheng saw her blus.h.i.+ng, he put down his wine cup and slowly approached her, pretending not to know what was going on. "What was I supposed to say?"
"Your eyes are on your body, why am I holding on to you? "Don"t think that just because you"re handsome you can be unreasonable." Even though he pretended not to understand, Xia Xinyan still wanted to argue with him.
"I just don"t want to be reasonable with you. I already like you for no reason at all. Why do you need to be so clear about it?" Ji Mu Cheng stood in front of her, his gaze fixated on her beautiful face from top to bottom. "Mind"s will, are you still related to Yan Junhan?"
Xia Xinyan trembled and immediately nodded, "Yes, he is my friend."
"He doesn"t just treat you as a friend. I want you to be able to tell the difference." The last time he saw He Jiaxuan in her office, Ji Mu City"s jar of acid had been turned over to this day.
"Of course I can tell." Xia Xinxin replied firmly.
"If he confessed to you, would you refuse him? If you refuse, you may not even be able to be friends with him. " Ji Mucheng was still worried that her willpower wasn"t strong enough, so he had to explain things to her clearly.
"Brother Yan is not such a petty person. Ji Mu Cheng, I know that there is no such thing as friends.h.i.+p between adults, but I ca
ot erase the favor he has given me just because I fell in love with you. I hope that I can find a chance to repay him." Xia Xinyan lowered her head and said softly.
Ji Mucheng was slightly surprised, but soon after, his lips curled up as he pinched her cheek, "Don"t worry, I will repay him together with you. It"s just that, in the name of a friend."
Xia Xinyan looked at him, and when she saw the deep emotion in his eyes, her heart trembled as she bit her lips and nodded.
Just then, the waiter started to serve the dishes. Ji Mucheng held her hand and took her seat.
The candlelight on the table reflected Xia Xin"s flushed face, making one"s heart beat faster.
Ji Mu Cheng had always thought that he had the best self-control. However, at this moment, he discovered that the woman beside him was even more attractive to him than the delicacies of a table. The person he wanted to get rid of was her.
Xia Xin didn"t know that she was the only person in the mind of the man beside her. She had been busy all day and was a bit hungry. Just then, the man reached out with his chopsticks to pick up a piece of beef and put it in her bowl.
Xia Xinxin murmured a thank you, picked up the beef, and began to eat it.
"Look at the frown between your eyebrows. Did you encounter some trouble?" Ji Mucheng observed her in detail and realized that ever since she got on the carriage, she had always been unable to open her heart. She had always been worried about certain things.
Xia Xinyan sighed, "I feel like I don"t have any more inspiration, and I can"t draw what I want."
Hearing this, Ji Mu Cheng couldn"t help laughing out loud. So he was just a
oying himself, and he thought it had something to do with him.
"What are you laughing at? I"m serious though, in our designer industry, we rely on inspiration to maintain our business. I don"t know why, but my brain has been bloated lately and I can"t squeeze out the s.p.a.ce to think about work. " Xia Xinyan sighed, unable to find a reason.
"Because you have me, I take over your heart, your brain, so, where do you think this?" Ji Mu Cheng said narcissistically.
"Speaking of which, it really was because of you that you messed up my originally single life. You caused me to be highly concentrated every day to be on guard against you." Xia Xinyan grumpily accused him.
"Take precautions against me?" The man was inexplicably shocked. His handsome face turned miserable. "You"re not mistaken, right? Why are you on guard against me?"
"Of course it"s to prevent you from stealing the child. I also have to prevent you from playing rogue with me. How can I calm down and work every day? It"s all your fault." Xia Xin pushed all the blame onto him.
Ji Mu Cheng didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. Was his influence on her that great?
"Alright, blame me, it"s all my fault. How do you want me to compensate you right now?" The man took the opportunity to ask as he looked at her with a heated gaze.
"You have to compensate me for my inspiration." Xia Xinyan glared at him angrily.
Ji Mu Cheng: "..." How could he find inspiration for her? Besides, his job was to keep his feet on the ground, and based on the data, he could never rely on inspiration to decide a single thing. Thus, he really did not know where he could get those intangible things.
Xia Xinyan knew that she was purposely angering him, and seeing that he couldn"t say anything, she couldn"t help but burst out laughing.
"Are you kidding me?" The man"s dark eyes turned dangerous.
"Eat more. After ordering so many dishes, don"t waste it." Xia Xin saw the danger in his eyes and quickly put the dish into his bowl.
"Ji Mu Cheng gritted his teeth. This woman dared to make fun of him. Does she not know how powerful he is?" Since you don"t have any inspiration now, why don"t you take a break and stop thinking about work? " Ji Mu City also felt sorry for her, as they didn"t want her to be tired.
"This won"t do, I"m going to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion soon, how can I have time to rest?" Xia Xin immediately shook his head.
"Do your best. Don"t be too tired. I don"t want you to be exhausted from wi
ing the award." Ji Mu Cheng frowned and reminded her in a low voice.
"Actually, I"m really determined to get it." Xia Xinyan sighed lightly, and laughed at herself.
"Why?" Ji Mu Cheng frowned.
"Because of my teacher, and also because of myself, he is thinking for the company. Everyone has placed their hopes on me, and if I fail them, I will feel sad myself." Xia Xinyan raised her gla.s.s and took a sip of red wine.
"Well, I wish you all the best." Ji Mu Cheng looked at her tenderly.
"Don"t help me, don"t control this matter. Let me fight with my strength." Xia Xinyan suddenly saw through the light in the depths of his eyes, and so she requested in a low voice.
Ji Mu Cheng"s gaze trembled. How did this woman see through his thoughts?
