After Sheng Ruming let her go, Luo Lixi put her hand on his chest and gently pushed him back.
Afterwards, she turned around and rummaged through the closet, took out some knee length socks. Afterwards, before his intense gaze, she sat on the edge of the bed and wore them one by them.
"Do you need help?" Sheng Ruming asked when he saw her struggling to lift her leg.
"Nah!" Because she had worn a pencil skirt, she was having difficulty lifting her legs. So, she bent down and slowly put the socks.
Even though Luo Lixi had worn knee high socks, her skin could be seen through from outside. Sheng Ruming felt very dissatisfied. If he could he would have wrapped her in a large cloth and turned her into a caterpillar in a cocoon who doesn't show its flesh...
"Stop showing that face. Or I might take back my words and go to find a job elsewhere." Luo Lixi clicked her tongue as she stood up and went outside.
"How about… I'll give you a little company?!" When Luo Lixi heard that, she turned around and showed him a blank face, which made him shut up instantly.
Afterwards, Sheng Ruming followed her closely, without making any sound. When it was time for going out, she brought out a box from the shoe cabinet.
Sheng Ruming saw she took out two high heels and found them quite dangerous. Thus, he asked, "Are you sure you can handle this?"
As Luo Lixi put one leg in one of them, she put one arm on his shoulder and lifted her leg to adjust her heel while putting her weight on Sheng Ruming.
"I can."
Sheng Ruming supported her arm as she finally put them. Afterwards, she turned towards and spoke loudly, "Done! Let's go!"
"Hmm." Luo Lixi put her weight on her heels and walked out from the door. Sheng Ruming closed the door behind and then followed Luo Lixi.
But when Luo Lixi tapped the button for the elevator, she stopped in her tracks and turned towards him.
"Ruming, stop."
But Sheng Ruming had already locked the door. Thus, she went forward and then unlocked the door. After thirty seconds, she came back with a black purse.
The elevator had finally arrived on their floor and it was open. As usual, there was no one in there.
Then, both of them entered and clicked the button for the ground floor. Sheng Ruming was standing straight and his sight was fixed on the door of the lift. While, first Luo Lixi glanced around the lift, afterwards her sight fell on the reflection of him on the silvery outlayer of the lift's door.
'For some reason, I am having this urge to break that cold face of his. Should I do it?...' Luo Lixi's sight fell on the CCTV which was in one upper corner of the lift. 'So what if they see?'
As Luo Lixi thought this, she moved before him and then placed a quick kiss on his lips. At her bold action, Sheng Ruming's eyes enlarged in surprise.
After they had entered the lift, Sheng Ruming's thoughts were on somewhere when the woman did that. Also in the blink of an eye, she returned to her position and crossed her arms before her chest as she looked somewhere else except him..
The man's expression cracked when he realised what she had done. "Heh, wait till we reach the company." Sheng Ruming murmured in a very low voice but Luo Lixi heard them all.
'Ah, what have I done?! Why am I digging a grave for myself?!' Luo Lixi pressed her eyes shut when she thought. But, she felt a kind of satisfaction when she saw the surprised face of him. 'It's worth it? I guess…'
Luo Lixi slowly opened her eyes and turned towards him. This time, she was taken when she saw him staring at her.
When Sheng Ruming saw her attention was on his face, he flashed a sly smile. At that, Luo Lixi blinked her eyes innocently. He didn't care about her look as he raised his hand, wiped the red stain from his lower lips and stared at his two fingers which had the mark of her lipstick.
"Ah, sorry Ruming. I had forgotten that I have my lipstick on. Let me clean it for you… Uh!" Before her eyes, he raised his fingers before his lips and kissed the red mark.
"..."
Luo Lixi hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers. Sheng Ruming didn't let her do that at first but when she became forceful, she let her.
"Secretary Xi, be careful of your image. Now, you are a part of my great company. Refrain yourself from doing such immoral things in public places. If you can't control, we can continue after we reach my office room..."
Luo Lixi felt like banging her head on the door of the lift. She put a smile that Sheng Ruming didn't see before but had seen on Ji Yanli's face countless times.
"I have yet to join your company.."
"It will be soon. Just some hours and then, you will become my personal secretary." Sheng Ruming answered without changing his face. Even after the lift had come on the tenth floor, it didn't stop.
After the elevator finally stopped at the ground floor, they walked out and exited the company.
Sheng Ruming walked in large steps while Luo Lixi followed him. After they had reached the parking lot, Sheng Ruming stopped and turned towards her.
Luo Lixi lifted her head and saw him taking out two car keys. Then, he pressed one of them and immediately the car beside his black car gave a response.
Thus, Luo Lixi turned towards that car and scrutinised it.
"A normal car which you have wanted."
Luo Lixi nodded her head. It was a very normal car whose logo was an unknown brand.
"This looks good." Luo Lixi turned at him and said. Then she tried to take the key chain from Sheng Ruming's hand but he raised his hand high up.
Luo Lixi stared at him in confusion when he asked, "Can't we go in the same car?"
Luo Lixi smiled softly and replied, "Of course we can. But that will happen only if we work separately." Sheng Ruming dropped his hand when he heard her. His expectation also died down which was to travel with her.
Sheng Ruming gave the key of that car to her. When she unlocked the car door, she heard him, "Be careful. I will follow you or you can follow me. Even now I think there isn't a need for you to drive by yourself. Yet you even rejected the idea of hiring a driver…"
The man's voice was overlapped with concern for the woman before her. In many matters, she wouldn't explain anything and would just deny it outright which made him very dissatisfied. At the same time, it increased his worries for her.
When Luo Lixi heard him, she turned at him for the last time, "It's okay. Don't think too much. I can handle…"
Afterwards, Luo Lixi entered the car. But then she stopped and hurriedly retreated her steps. She lost her balance and Sheng Ruming immediately grabbed her from behind.
Even though she could've balanced herself, she let him held her and Luo Lixi knew he liked it.
"Look, even before you started, you nearly fell on the ground. Let's go there today in the same car. From tomorrow, you can drive."
"Uh. Ruming, this car is not normal or ordinary at all! You disguised its outer shell with some random parts?!" Luo Lixi stared inside. The inferior looked even more hightech than his own car.
"It's a special and one of a kind piece in the whole world. The exterior seemed very ordinary but the inside is very hightech."
"I can see." Luo Lixi had already stood up on her feet and peeked at the inferior of the car then she opened the door and entered.
"Lixi, it has cost me a lot. You have to compensate me with…"
"After I can access my bank account, I will transfer the money to you."
Sheng Ruming's last word '... kiss.' didn't see the light of the day anymore. The man I warmly hissed, 'I don't need your money. I only need you…' He didn't have the leisure to think further as Luo Lixi had already closed all the windows of the car and started the engine.
Sheng Ruming also got into his car and then drove it on the road. Luo Lixi found the car to be very smooth to drive. She liked the design and everything else.
'When I will go back, I will surely take it with me.' Luo Lixi thought as she saw Sheng Ruming's car overtaking hers. She didn't know the exact location of the branch company thus she let him.
Thus, on the busy road, a luxurious-branded car was seen stalking by a plain looking car. Wherever the car goes, the cheap car would follow it. Even when the black car circled the square for the third time, the white car did that.
Many observant onlookers had already noticed this bizarre thing. They wondered as to what those people in those cars were doing. Luo Lixi clenched the steering wheel tightly when Sheng Ruming did that.
"This man! What will I do with him?!" She shouted aloud in her car. As if Sheng Ruming had heard her, he stopped circling the square and immediately went on to another road; driving slowly.
This time, he didn't cause anymore irrationality to Luo Lixi as they headed towards the company.
