Chapter 335: You Will Get Used to It Eventually
“I came at the wrong time?”
The moment those words left his mouth, Huo Yingcheng felt like he wasted his saliva saying it.
Those already unfriendly eyes turned colder in an instant.
Gu Qingjiu’s face was flushed red while still being trapped in He Niancheng’s embrace. She didn’t dare to turn to look at Huo Yingcheng’s expression either.
After all, it was slightly awkward to be caught red-handed in an embrace.
“Knock when you come in next time.”
It was a cold voice that chilled one down to the bones that rang. Huo Yingcheng could feel the boiling rage in the tone.
h.e.l.l, the two of them were showing off their love. The office doors were wide open and he could already see them even before he arrived at the office.
And yet, he had the gall to ask him to knock?
Was this person r.e.t.a.r.ded?!
Of course, he could only keep those thoughts to himself.
He smiled amicably as he agreed, “Yes, yes, yes, I understand. I’ll knock next time.”
It would be most befitting if Huo Yingcheng was awarded a trophy for his act as a treacherous minister.
His flattery was like those of eunuchs in ancient times.
That was what Gu Qingjiu thought when she heard Huo Yingcheng’s tone.
But if she mentioned that, someone might get killed so she held her thoughts in.
“But Chief Instructor He, Ye Henyu asked if you wanted to attend a gathering. Do you want to go?”
So it turned out that he was here to pa.s.s a message.
He Niancheng’s arms loosened slightly.
Gu Qingjiu could feel that she was no longer restricted, but she still didn’t dare to carelessly turn her head back.
She really didn’t want to face Huo Yingcheng and get mocked.
“Ye Henyu?”
He Niancheng frowned slightly as Huo Yingcheng chuckled. “Yes, that’s right. That time when we came to China…”
“Who is that?”
When He Niancheng continued, Huo Yingcheng had to swallow all his words.
He was a little speechless. “The fifth child of the Ye family. The one who was pampered to the very core. After he learned that we are at the capital, he invited you to…”
“Not going.”
He Niancheng’s cold voice evidently meant that he wasn’t buying it.
That answer seemed to be within Huo Yingcheng’s expectations. He didn’t try to persuade him and instead nodded. “Okay, I will tell him that you’re not going then.”
After speaking, Huo Yingcheng cast a mischievous glance at Gu Qingjiu. “Qingjiu, bye-bye.”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
For Huo Yingcheng to call her out when she was still stuffed in He Niancheng’s embrace really caused her to lose all will to raise her head.
The heavy footsteps gradually faded. Realizing that Huo Yingcheng had gone away, Gu Qingjiu was about to raise her head when she heard He Niancheng’s teasing voice. “He left.”
“Is… is that so?”
Gu Qingjiu looked up. Because she was stuffed in his embrace, her face was slightly flushed.
And it was even more obvious on that porcelain white skin of hers.
The soft red flush which was as beautiful as peach blossoms presented a girl’s most youthful side.
Gu Qingjiu could hear the rumble from He Niancheng’s low pitched chuckle.
That sound was incredibly moving, much to Gu Qingjiu’s chagrin.
“Chief Instructor, I…”
“Shy? You will get used to it eventually.”
His statement caused her to unwittingly recall the scene the time she was leaning in his embrace, and that alone caused her face to flush in a deep red.
Feeling that she would only get embarra.s.sed to death if she stayed any longer, she quickly found an excuse to leave. “Chief Instructor, I still have to report at the shooting department, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“Okay.”
His voice was gentle and indulgent as he answered. “Go on.”
Hearing his permission, Gu Qingjiu left immediately without daring to raise her head to even see his expression.
