C83 Cocktail

Qiao Xi's body continued to tremble uncontrollably. She had already seen two broken trees. Humans appeared too small before the might of nature.

Shen Yeyan lightly patted her hand and comforted her in a low voice, "When Li Ran returns, we will return to the Imperial City."

They found another seat in the hall, not being too close to the outside. Qiao Xi's nervous expression slowly turned better. He sipped his hot tea and waited for another 20 minutes. Li Ran hurriedly came down with his bag.

Suddenly, two shouts of a man and a woman came from behind him, urgent and anxious. Qiao Xi first heard the voices and very quickly, the two of them blocked his path. They were both around forty years old, and blocked his path on his left and right.

The man was so anxious that he nearly knelt down and bowed as he apologized, "Mister Shen, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I will perform well."

The woman was already on her knees crying. She wanted to hug Shen Yeyan's leg and beg for mercy, but Qiao Xi stopped her.

"Mr. Shen, I beg you to let me off on my behalf. I will definitely repay the company in the future."

Qiao Xi looked at the two people in front of him and guessed that they were Shen Ye Ling's men.

Li Ran took a step forward and stopped him, "Mister Shen gave you a chance. Since you chose your own path, you should be prepared to bear the burden."

Hearing this, the man kneeled down and begged for mercy, "Mr. Shen, I was also threatened by young master. I have no other choice, I beg you to let me off, for the sake of working for the company for so many years."

Shen Yeyan sneered, "You have to take the benefits that the young master has bestowed upon you. Can you give it to the young master now?"

The man was stunned, but he also knew that he had said the wrong thing. Right now, he had offended Teacher Shen, as well as the young master. In the future, it would be even harder to mess around in the Imperial City.

"Mister Shen, I was muddle-headed."

"You have to know the consequences of being confused."

The man continuously kowtowed in front of Shen Yenan, "Please be magnanimous, Mister Shen."

The farce in front of them had already alerted the higher-ups. Today, Shen Yeyan made an example out of nothing in front of all the higher-ups.

Very quickly, a security guard came forward to hold them back, leaving them immobile. Li Ran was the first to go out and drive, while Shen Ye An walked out with a dark expression.

The rain outside had lessened, but the water in front of the door had yet to disperse. Qiao Xi's sandals directly stepped into the water and wet landed on the car.

When Shen Yeyan saw her wet sandals, he handed her a packet of tissue. "Take it off and wipe it off."

Qiao Xi felt embarrassed. "It's fine."

A light flickered in his eyes. "I'll strip it for you."

His overbearing posture was about to arrive. Qiao Xi hurriedly dodged and looked at him vigilantly. "I'll do it myself."

She carefully took off her sandals, exposing her pink toes, and quickly wiped them off with a few pieces of paper.

In the dim carriage, Shen Yeyan's eyes were focused on her small feet. Her toes were soft and cute, and the skin on the back of her feet was white and smooth. She even wanted to place it in her palm.

She bent down to wipe her sandals. She moved quickly, putting them back on under his burning gaze.

Due to his passionate gaze, Qiao Xi even felt her face heat up. It was getting hotter and hotter inside the airless car. If it wasn't for the rain outside, she would even want to open the window.

Shen Yeyan noticed that her face had turned slightly red all the way to her ears. She looked cute and interesting with her head lowered. He purposely asked, "Do you feel that it's very hot?"

Qiao Xi said angrily, "It's definitely not as hot as yours."

"Do you know where I get the heat?"

What's the difference between his words and throwing hooligans? Li Ran was sitting in front, while Qiao Xi couldn't compare to him being shameless. Thus, he just ignored him and looked out the window.

The sky outside was getting darker. It was clearly summer evening, but it seemed like there was almost no light at night. All the cars on the road had their lights turned on, moving slowly in the rain.

Qiao Xi kept looking out of the window. Soon, the curtain of rain on the window grew larger, completely obscuring the scenery outside. Lightning and thunder began once again.

The windshield wipers on the front of the car were working non-stop. Li Ran looked at the navigation screen and said, "Mister Shen, it's sealed at high speed."

"Take another route back."

Li Ran had already started to turn around. As she listened to the patter of rain outside mixed with the sound of thunder, her heart was filled with worry.

Shen Ye An could see the graveness on her face. He suddenly pulled a blanket over his legs and said, "You'll be there soon."

"Yes."

She pulled the blanket over her chest, turned her head to the side and closed her eyes. She just couldn't see the lightning outside, but she didn't feel sleepy.

Shen Ye An watched her closing her eyes. It was quiet and beautiful, and occasionally, lightning would shine on her face, illuminating her facial features.

He leaned over slowly and looked at her tilted head. He raised his hand and gently twisted it to rest on his shoulder.

Qiao Xi had not slept at all, and was incomparably clear on his small movements. Her head landed firmly on his shoulder, moving closer to him to almost smell the faint fragrance on his body.

After holding on for a few minutes, Qiao Xi pretended to flip over and took his head off his shoulder. Within a few seconds, Shen Yeyan stubbornly turned her head around and put it on his shoulder once again.

Her mood was in a mess. Shen Yeyan's hand even gently caressed her cheek. His actions were gentle and gentle. After a few seconds, he moved away, causing her to feel a chill run down her spine.

Qiao Xi's mood was like the heavy rain outside the window. She didn't stay on his shoulder for long before turning around and moving away once again.

Shen Ye An couldn't help chuckling when he saw her curled up by the door. "Qiao Xi, are you pretending to be asleep?"

Seeing that she was able to keep her composure, Shen Ye An abruptly moved closer to her. His wide body almost pressed her petite body against the door, deliberately pulling down the cover in front of her, causing the space to become even narrower.

His warm body deliberately stuck close to her. Feeling annoyed by him, Qiao Xi wanted to fiercely turn around and overthrow him, but instead he crashed into his embrace.

"Surrender?"

Qiao Xi was stunned and tried to push her away in panic, but the space was too small. He pressed his body down on purpose, pressing her down beside the door.

His eyes flickered with a black light that seemed to be tainted with an unfathomable desire. Qiao Xi did not dare to move recklessly in his arms, afraid that he would become so beastly.

She poked him in the chest, creating some distance between them. With a serious and serious gaze, she accused him, "Shen Yeyan, this is harassment."

"You ran into my arms and blamed me for disturbing you?"

"Sit away."

"This is my car, I'll take it wherever I want."

"…"

Qiao Xi was so angry that she wanted to jump out of the car. The suddenly rogue Shen Ye An gave her a headache. She had no choice but to stick close to the car door, unable to escape Shen Ye An's hot body.

Finally, she figured out a way to slip off the seat and sit down. She was small enough to sit down.

When Shen Yeyan saw her pitiful appearance, he didn't tease her anymore. Instead, he returned to his seat and touched his trembling chest, "Come up."

Qiao Xi stared at him, but spoke to Li Ran: "Assistant Li, how much longer?"

Li Ran was having a headache. His car had been blocked off at a high speed, so it was difficult for them to take other roads, not only to take detours.

"I think it'll be a while."

Having said so, the smooth car suddenly jolted. The car suddenly turned right, causing Li Ran to quickly stabilize the car.

Qiao Xi almost crashed into the car door, but was pulled back by Shen Ye An.

"I'm sorry, Mister Shen. I'll go down and take a look."
