Seeing her angry look, shen cang became happy, his eyebrows and eyes curved, like crescents.
"Answer me."
"What?!"
"You know."
"I don't know!"
After playing a few riddles, shen cang felt bored and changed the question, "You don't have a boyfriend, do you?"
After getting along for a while, if ye zhiqiao couldn't see his intention before, it would be excusable. If she couldn't see it now, she would pretend to be stupid.
She... Broke up with gu mohan, so she didn't have a boyfriend, but she was very clear about the relationship. She took shen cang as a friend, and there was no love between men and women at all.
So she looked him straight in the eye and said firmly, "I don't have a boyfriend, and I have no plans to fall in love in recent years."
Mmm!
Shen cang didn't expect her to answer like this.
In his opinion, a woman like ye zhiqiao would only have two reactions to answer such questions.
First, you don't clearly tell yourself about your relationship, but you're insinuating that the other party can continue to pursue it.
The second is to tell yourself that you don't have a boyfriend and that you don't feel anything about him.
The first was a yes, the second was a rejection, and of course, the first was the majority.
But what does ye zhiqiao mean when she says she has no plans to fall in love? Was it just a kind person who didn't want to hurt his self-esteem, or... Who refused to accept it?
Shen cang could not understand the meaning in her clear eyes, so he had to continue trying according to his plan.
"Since we have no plans to fall in love, let's not fall in love. Let's talk about something else."
He bent down slowly and imprisoned ye zhiqiao between the kitchen counter and his body, the tip of his nose almost touching hers.
What serious business can we talk about in this position and distance?!
Ye zhiqiao was so angry that she threw her head back and pushed shen cang, who was covering her forehead, to the other side with both arms.
"You... Don't go too far!" She had endured it for a long time.
Originally, they decided to talk to shen cang about their relationship, but because a bunch of flowers messed up the plan, but they definitely can't continue like this, or even friends can't do it!
"I..."
Just as she opened her head, shen cang suddenly rubbed his forehead and complained, "Why are you so cruel? Why did you hit me?"
"I'll hit you..."
"I just wanted to talk to you about the menu tonight. I was just teasing you. Why can't I be so funny?!"
"Tease me?"
Ye zhiqiao lowered her eyes and recalled the scene.
In fact, she was flustered by shen cang's grasp and those words. Shen cang pushed her into a corner, but her body was still quite far away. He put his head closer but didn't touch her anywhere. If it was a joke... Maybe... Maybe?
Because these days, shen cang always teased her and occasionally crossed her shoulders. If you think about it carefully, the scene just now was nothing. Moreover, shen cang's eyes were too sincere at this time, and he could not see any concealment, even with a trace of resentment, as if he was blaming her for her heavy hand.
"... I'm sorry, does it hurt?"
Ye zhi qiao frowned and asked shyly.
"Of course it hurts! Forget it. I'm going back to my bedroom to recuperate. You can cook for yourself. Remember to call me when you're done."
Shen cang sucked in the cold air, covered his head and turned to walk out.
He left the kitchen and walked straight up the stairs. When he reached the second floor, his wrinkled brows relaxed and his lips were pursed into a straight line. His eyes were not filled with any sincerity or resentment, but with a playful smile.
He leaned forward and rested his arms on the railing, holding his breath as he listened to the noise downstairs. It was only when the sound of water and the collision of bowls and bowls started that he narrowed his eyes and showed an agitated expression.
It seems too obvious. She doesn't like it, so what does she like?
To be honest, the time he spent with ye zhiqiao was not short, but he could not find a way to make her heart beat. At first, he was cold to her, treating her like an ordinary employee, thinking that she would definitely not be able to stand the tiring work and come to him to take care of her, but she did not.
Later, due to the abuse of qu ning, he was discovered that he had just used that as a turning point to change his way, and from time to time, he had made advances to her to tease her, but it still seemed to have no effect.
"Ah--"
With a long sigh, he turned around and leaned against the railing, looking at the carved ceiling and thinking hard, hoping to find a way to successfully take down ye zhiqiao.
However, it was a pity that he had not succeeded in meeting ye zhiqiao since this day.
Sitting on the office chair, he circled back and forth in annoyance. Shen cang pinched his temple, using full force and still had a terrible headache.
This was how he felt. He had to get what he wanted right away. Otherwise, he would feel uncomfortable anywhere unless he vented out.
But now he was too lazy to look for qu ning, so he could only hold on by himself.
"Knock, knock, knock -"
He promised. The assistant pushed the door open and came in with a stack of documents in his hand.
The assistant introduced them in order and put them on the table. Shen cang squinted his eyes and tilted his head, not knowing if he was listening. Only when the assistant took out the last folder did he make a move.
The assistant handed the document to him and reported from memory, "This is gu mohan's schedule for the past two days. Nothing special happened yesterday. He was resting at the hotel. He went to see a building this morning and went back to the hotel."
"Gu... Mo... Han."
Shen cang slowly recited the name, not caring where he went, but thinking it was time for the players to meet.
Due to ye zhiqiao's evasion, his game seemed to have entered a dead end recently. What kind of chemical reaction would happen if he joined another player, gu mohan, at this time?
It's really exciting!
Throwing the document back on the table, he raised his eyebrows and instructed the assistant, "Find a way to ask gu mohan out for dinner. Time..."
He glanced at the clock and said, "It's the end of the day."
"Yes." The assistant nodded.
After the assistant left, shen cang immediately got up, sat upright, took a document to read, and his mind was filled with scenes that might appear at dinner.
It was almost the end of the day, and everyone in the office began to pack their things. Ye zhiqiao checked the data on her head and began to list the work plan for tomorrow.
Unknowingly, the surroundings quieted down, and she was wondering why she had not heard a few active colleagues shouting, "It's time to get off work."
She looked up blankly and shen cang was standing in front of her desk looking at her with a smile.
"President shen? Why are you here?"
Ye zhiqiao stood up at a loss and clearly heard the whispers coming from around her.
