The instant her hand was about to touch the door handle, the bathroom door was pushed open. A man walked out from inside with a vigorous posture, attracting Li Mengqi's attention.

At this moment, he was wearing a light gray household uniform. As he wiped his hair, he walked towards her.

Li Mengqi stared dumbly at him as he got closer and closer. In that moment, she completely forgot about the fact that there was someone outside the door.

Only when the doorbell rang did she regain her senses. She turned around with the intention of opening the door, but in the next second, her entire body was hugged by the man. Following that, a magnetic voice sounded in her ears …

"You dressed like this and you want to open the door, huh?"

He did not forget to put his head down on her cheek and print a small kiss.

Due to his sudden intimate action, Li Mengqi's small face quickly flushed red. Only then did she realize that she was only wearing one of his t-shirts. It was too embarrassing.

Fortunately, he had stopped her in time. Otherwise, he would have lost a lot of face.

Thinking of this, she softly replied, and then took his hand away from her waist. "Then I'll go in and hide for a while."

No matter who it was, it wasn't appropriate for her to appear in the living room at this moment.

"Alright!"

With that, Qi Junhao slapped her on the butt, "It's getting late, you can go to bed first."

"En!"

Li Mengqi hesitated for a moment before finally nodding her head.

Qi Junhao watched her back until she entered the room. Then he turned around and opened the door.

Qi Junhao's eyes quickly regained its coldness upon seeing the newcomer, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you brought the item over yet?"

"Well, it's all here!"

It was Linda, who had accompanied him to the JS + 5 dinner earlier.

She held a delicate paper bag and waved it in front of him. With a bright smile and a hint of gossip, she asked, "Who is it? It's worth it to be CEO Qi, but he actually wanted me to bring over so many female products. Hades, aren't you going to introduce us? "

"She's asleep!"

Qi Junhao snatched the bag from her hands and raised his eyebrows at her, "Thanks, you can leave now."

After he finished speaking, just as he was about to close the door, Linda blocked the door faster than him, "On account of the things that I have been sending over, you have to do what you promised me!"

"Alright, I'll see what I can do."

Qi Junhao impatiently waved his hands, only wanting to send the little witch away as soon as possible.

"Oh yeah, Hades, you're great!"

As Linda finished speaking, she glanced at the half-open door in the room. A crafty look flashed across her eyes, and when he wasn't paying attention, she tiptoed and lightly kissed Qi Junhao on the cheek, then ran away before he could get angry.

This damned girl!

Qi Junhao shook his head and closed the door behind him.

Earlier, he had found that what he had bought wasn't suitable, so he had called Linda and told her to prepare some women's necessities.

Linda was the daughter of Anthony, his uncle, and a cousin of his. She had returned from her studies in England and had become a secretary in his company.

In fact, the vivacious and enthusiastic Linda dreamed of being a designer, only her uncle didn't approve of her coming into the design world and forced her to learn business administration.

Linda did not give up. She had pestered Qi Junhao many times to plead for mercy. The usually quiet Qi Junhao had ignored her on this matter. But today, he had no choice but to agree.

Qi Junhao took the paper bag back into the house and opened it. Inside were different types of tampons, a few pairs of pants, and a set of dress, which made him feel very thoughtful.

The image of his little woman in his T-shirt, her legs showing, his throat tightening, feeling another wave of discomfort somewhere, flashed through his mind. He sighed, went into the bathroom, and took another cold shower.

In the other room.

Li Mengqi was lying on her bed, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she remembered the scene she saw from behind the door. It seemed that she wasn't the one being sensitive. He had a deep relationship with that woman!

Not only did he know where he lived, he even allowed her to kiss him?

Li Mengqi knew that Qi Junhao was a germaphobic person. If he wasn't the person he liked, how could he have let him take advantage of this opportunity? Of course, the attack on Christmas Eve by Shen Xingran was an accident! But this time, it was real …

His heart, at this moment, was filled with pain.

She subconsciously curled up her body, hugging the blanket to her chest. In this bedroom filled with his masculinity, she no longer felt at ease, but instead felt an incomparable sense of distress.

Was she really the only one of his people, his bed, after all these years? In the years that she had been gone, could he really be as good as a jade for her?

No, no!

It was already too late for him to hate her. How could he still foolishly guard over her?

Thinking of this, Li Mengqi's nose suddenly felt sore, and her eyes began to itch. She reached out her hand to rub it, trying her best to not let her tears fall.

At this time, the door was pushed open. Familiar footsteps were gradually approaching, causing her heart to become more and more flustered.

Li Mengqi didn't know how to face him, nor did she want to argue with him at this time, so she had to close her eyes and pretend to be asleep.

The man walked over to the bed and turned off the light. Then he gently lifted the quilt and lay down beside her.

In the darkness, Li Mengqi's long eyelashes trembled, and she felt his scorching breath within reach of her. She secretly breathed, and her whole body was wrapped in a pair of large hands, being hugged by him without the slightest gap.

Li Mengqi's heart ached. She really wanted to ask him why he could still act so intimate and natural even when he didn't want her anymore. She really wanted to ask him, who was that woman? She really wanted to ask him if he knew from the start that she was Jiang Yanxi, or if he really just thought of her as a substitute …

There were many questions that she wanted to ask him, but it was already late in the night. The man beside her had long since begun to breathe evenly and fell asleep.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, you must muster up the courage to ask him!

Li Mengqi secretly made up her mind. She couldn't help but nestle against him, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier as she slowly fell asleep.

The next day, Li Mengqi woke up. The man was no longer by her side.

She stretched, picked up the phone on the bedside table, looked at it, and found that it was already 9 o'clock.

Oh no, he couldn't have gone to work, could he?

Li Mengqi quickly got up from the bed, tidied her hair and hurried out of the bedroom. She saw the man elegantly sitting on the sofa with a cup of coffee in one hand, leisurely reading the morning paper.

"Why are you still here?"

Li Mengqi couldn't help raising her voice, but in her heart, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. It was great to see him when I woke up! How great it would be if he could see him every day when she woke up!

As she thought about it, she suddenly realized that this hope seemed to be a little slim. After all, between them —

"Why can't I be here?"

Qi Junhao took a sip of his coffee, then glanced at her indifferently, "Hurry up and wash your teeth and face. I'll take you to breakfast!"

"Don't you have to work?"

As far as she knew, today was not the weekend! However, when she heard that he still wanted to take her to eat breakfast, Li Mengqi felt a sweet feeling in her heart. She couldn't help but secretly despise him, as she was becoming more and more disappointing!

"It's fine to go to the company later!"

Qi Junhao explained in a low voice as he lifted his wrist to look at his watch. His deep eyes swept over her body, and his lips curved up in a pretty smile, "The change in clothes is already on the shelf, you only have ten minutes."

"No, fifteen minutes!"

Li Mengqi bargained, and without waiting for him to agree, she slipped away into the bathroom.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, she went over to the shelf and saw a fine paper bag with a skirt, a few packets of tampons, and a pair of pants, all luxury brands.

Li Mengqi pursed her lips as a complicated expression flashed across her almond eyes.

Did that woman bring these last night?

Qi Junhao was quite capable to have his new partner buy a woman's item for an old lover like her.

Heh, if it was her, she would definitely throw that thing ruthlessly at his face and make him scram, the further he goes, the better!

The more Li Mengqi thought about it, the angrier she became. At this moment, her heart was filled with anger, and she really wanted to throw the entire bag into the trash can. However, due to reality, she could only unwillingly change her clothes under this pressure.

It had to be said, that woman's insight was truly unique. The clothes she chose were extremely suitable for her!

The other party was indeed a formidable opponent. He did not even have the courage to ask her who she was!

Sigh!

Sighing heavily, Li Mengqi opened the bathroom door and walked out.

By this time, the man had put on his coat, packed it, and was waiting for her.

Li Mengqi knew that he had always been a person with a strong sense of time. When she saw that fifteen minutes had already passed, she hurriedly found her bag and followed him out the door.

The two of them entered the elevator. Qi Junhao pressed the button for the first floor and asked casually, "How long are you planning to stay in New York? When are you going back?"

"…"

Li Mengqi did not answer. Her originally depressed mood had dropped even further from what he had just said.

He was chasing her away!

Seeing that she didn't say anything, a strange light flashed across Qi Junhao's eyes, which were as dark as ink.

He deliberately coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "BGH television station has its own department in New York, and Anthony also has his own department. Do you want to consider returning after this episode?"

After he finished speaking, he actually felt a bit nervous, afraid that she would refuse.

Li Mengqi obviously did not expect him to make such a suggestion. Her almond-shaped eyes widened with disbelief, and after a long time, she finally reacted. Her delicate lips moved, and she asked, "Are you serious?"

Did he really want her to stay?

Her heart seemed to have been rekindled.

"You don't want to?"

Qi Junhao patted her head and raised his eyebrows, "That's your god, Anthony!"

"En, I promise you!"

At this time, regardless of whether it was a male Goddess or a male Goddess, none of this was important to Li Mengqi. She only knew that her Hades still had her own in her heart, and she …

He didn't want to give up!

When Qi Junhao saw that she had agreed, his lips curled up into a faint smile.

At that moment, the elevator door opened, and he wrapped his arm around her slender waist and walked out, feeling refreshed.

Their breakfast was being held at the Chinese restaurant in the Lashel Hotel.

The breakfast he ordered was still her favorite. It had a variety of styles and was extremely exquisite.

Li Mengqi was moved, and she suddenly had an illusion. It was as if they had returned to the time when they belonged together.

"Come back to the office with me after breakfast!"

The man's sudden words pulled Li Mengqi back from her thoughts. She raised her head and caught his probing gaze.

Li Mengqi was startled for a moment, and then nodded her head, "Okay!"

She had come here for him, so she didn't mind following him around.

"What are you thinking?"

Qi Junhao couldn't help but ask when he saw her distracted.

"No, no!"

At this moment, how could she say that she was thinking of him?

Sigh, there is a saying that goes' love to the depths of one's mouth and it's hard to open one's mouth '. From the looks of it, that makes a lot of sense!

Thinking of this, she felt shy for some reason. Her eyes flickered, looking a little awkward. In the eyes of Qi Junhao, she felt guilty.

Thinking that she was thinking about Lu Kuchen, Qi Junhao narrowed his eyes and became gloomy. However, he did not speak again.

About fifteen minutes later, they left the Chinese restaurant.

"Wait for me here. I'll go get the car."

Qi Junhao rubbed her little head as he instructed her in a low voice.

Just as Li Mengqi was about to nod, she suddenly remembered that he had injured Lu Kuchen last night. She wondered how Chen-gege was doing now.
