Chapter 292: Wall Slam

Chapter 292: Wall Slam

Xiao Qi originally stood in the middle of the lift. That handsome face of his, which left all the women in the company in a frenzy, was expressionless. Yet, the moment he looked at Chu Jiao, his gaze went through an ever so slight change. When Chu Jiao faced him, she coincidentally caught sight of this change.

After walking into the lift, she stood straight in front of the man, but instead of turning around to face the doors like how most people would, she instead looked right at Xiao Qi’s pair of deep black eyes.

“Why is Director Xiao getting off work so late?”

As a minor employee who had previously been harboring a deep crush on this man, Chu Jiao still faintly remembered the fates of those cannon fodders who had actively tried to strike up a conversation or even woo Director Xiao Qi—— Each and every one of them was fired from the company, immediately losing their jobs and losing their reputations. And, that was why she only kept her love for him in the dark back then, never daring to take action and make the slightest contact. First, it was because of her sense of self-inferiority, and second, it was because she was afraid she would lose her employment status that allowed her to get close to him.

However, at this moment, Chu Jiao’s mentality had long been changed.

If Xiao Qi were ‘him,’ then he wouldn’t treat her as coldly as he would to anyone else.

If Xiao Qi weren’t ‘him,’ then there was no longer a need for her to continue staying in this company. She was going to move on and try her best to find the person she truly loved.

“....En.”

At this moment, the distance between the two had already dwindled so much that Xiao Qi’s back was helplessly against the lift walls, with Chu Jiao bluntly raising a hand earlier and formidably propping it against the wall beside his shoulder.

In reality, Chu Jiao originally wanted to do a wall slam, but the man was too tall for her to do so. Even though her height was considered average for a woman, she was still a full head shorter than him, so her hand couldn’t even reach the side of his head.

This scene certainly looked a little comical from an outsider’s perspective. Yet, Xiao Qi stared at the serious woman in front of him, who was clearly attempting to provoke him, and the stiff corners of his mouth couldn’t help but slightly raise.

What should he do? He was almost unable to continue this pretense. His lady was always so adorable, and she caused his original plans of staying uninvolved in this world to falter.

“What do you want ‘as compensation’?” Xiao Qi tried his best to suppress his happiness and the desire to embrace her welling up in his heart, deliberately following Chu Jiao’s question.

“I want to....”
