"Qin Ziang, you monster!"
At this moment, An Xiaochu did not know what to say other than this sentence.
"What's there to be excited about? Didn't you like it here? You'll be living here from now on." Qin Ziang consoled An Xiaochu, who was just about to go berserk, with one hand.
Women were truly strange creatures. One second they were shy, gentle and playful, and the next, they would be furious. Didn't Uncle Yao say that as long as he took advantage of An Xiaochu's working time to find a new house for her? Then, when they get along, could An Xiaochu be settled just by having a better attitude? Why is the truth so far from the truth, is the old man's flirting way out of date?
Qin Ziang was a little confused, his mouth was dry.
"Why do I have to live here? It's just a contract between us. I just need to complete your orders, and I don't need you to meddle in my matters. " An Xiaochu shook her shoulders with all her might, shaking off the hand that Qin Ziang had placed on her shoulder.
"An Xiaochu, stop messing around. I specially prepared this place for you. Even if you want to be angry with me, you shouldn't joke around with yourself. The environment here is not only slightly better than the one you lived in before, the prices are also very suitable. As long as it's within your range of acceptance, you, a girl, will be safe living in this place. "
Qin Ziang was still not done yet, so he could only analyze the advantages and disadvantages from the perspective of the house.
"I'm going back. Thank you for your good intentions." An Xiaochu lowered her head, in her hand was the little rabbit that Qin Ziang had just stuffed in front of her, and her eyes drooped down as she thought about something.
"Did I say I won't listen to you? An Xiaochu, you are already such a big person, can you not make me worry? " Speaking to this point, Qin Ziang originally thought that An Xiaochu had already been moved, but who knew that she would still insist on leaving.
He, Qin Ziang, had always lived a proud life, when had he ever been humble like this, and yet there was someone who didn't buy it. The anger in his heart flared up, and the words that came out of his mouth didn't even need to be filtered through his brain.
"Who told you to worry …" An Xiaochu's originally drooping head quietly raised up.
Ah, she was worried. She never thought that one day, she would actually hear these words from Qin Ziang's mouth. The key thing was, after hearing what Qin Ziang had to say, her face turned extremely red!
"It's over." Qin Ziang's hand landed on An Xiaochu's hair and gently fiddled with it, smoothing her hair out.
An Xiaochu's heartbeat instantly reached a new high point. Qin Ziang's voice was too soft, too seductive!
The two of them did not speak, allowing the silence to flow in this warm room. However, this time, the two of them did not feel awkward.
The emotions that had been bothering him for the past ten days all vanished at this moment.

When An Xiaochu woke up the next day, she discovered a note on the bedside table. On it, a few words were written in calligraphy that was as flamboyant as flying dragons and dancing phoenixes.
'I'll take you to dinner at seven o'clock this evening, 'he said. His tone of voice, which didn't carry any hint of inquiry or discussion, was no different from that of the notice.
It was really his style. He didn't even have a name. It was as if the gentle and refreshing Qin Ziang from last night was only an illusion of An Xiaochu, and during the day, he was still him.
Thinking back to last night, An Xiaochu still felt like she was in a dream.
Qin Ziang wanted to help An Xiaochu find a place to stay so that he could treat him to a meal. An Xiaochu more or less understood that he did this deliberately because she did not want herself to be burdened. Thus, she gritted her teeth and decided to treat Qin Ziang to a good meal.
Who would have known that Qin Ziang's demands were so low? As long as An Xiaochu cooked a meal for him at home, it would be enough. An Xiaochu rejected Qin Ziang with the excuse that he did not have any ingredients. She had always remembered the Steward Yao saying that Qin Ziang Adai was picky.
The things that Qin Ziang had decided on would never change. However, An Xiaochu still agreed to it after fighting to the death. The two of them went to the supermarket first, and by the time they got home, it was already quite late. As the two finished their meal, it was getting late.
An Xiaochu had been tired the whole day, leaning on the sofa and waiting for Qin Ziang to peel the apple, she had already entered her dream.
As for when Qin Ziang left, she had no idea.

"Xiaochu? Xiaochu? What are you doing? " Her colleague Xiao Mei called out to An Xiaochu a few times in puzzlement. An Xiaochu had already stood in front of her with the menu in her hand for a few minutes, yet she was still unable to pass it to her.
"Ah?" "No, I'll give it to you. This is the list for table number 5." An Xiaochu smiled apologetically as she placed the list in Little Mei's hands in a flurry. However, within that smile, no matter how you looked at it, it didn't seem right.
"Xiaochu, are you alright? You've been out of your mind the entire day. It can't be that you overworked last night and left behind side effects, right?" Xiaomei was quiet, but she was an old 'locomotive' driver. They had experienced it since the first day that An Xiaochu came here to work.
When she had heard Little Mei talk about this in the past, An Xiaochu had only smiled. But today, her face blushed a little, even her ears felt a little hot.
Pretending to get coffee for her guest, An Xiaochu fled.
After receiving the guests, An Xiaochu returned to her seat and continued in a daze. The scenes of last night with Qin Ziang kept playing in her mind, causing her to be confused and confused at the same time. What exactly could she and Qin Ziang be considered?
Half a month ago, that confession that was full of meaning at Qin Ziang's home once again swept through An Xiaochu's thoughts, causing her to panic.

On the top floor of the Honorary International.
The secretary, Little Chen, and the manager of the planning department came out together towards the CEO's office. Their high heels were stepping on the white carpet, making no sound at all.
"Did the sun come out from the south today?"
Just as he closed the door to the CEO's office, the manager of the planning department couldn't help but gossip with Little Chen. Inside the Honorary International, there was a saying that when the CEO's expression was cold, it was called the normal sun rising.
The description of the south was naturally inconceivable. Even now, the manager of the planning department was still rejoicing. The proposal that she submitted just now was more than half overturned by the CEO. She thought that she would die for sure, but who knew that the CEO would go over to her side and ask her to pick a bunch of flowers before letting her go.
He didn't scold her, didn't ask her to work overtime, and he didn't even use 'cold air' to freeze her. This was unbelievable!
"I feel the same way. Didn't you see the spring breeze on the face of the CEO when he came this morning? It made people suspect that he had carried out some 'physical and mental' activity last night."
Because in the world of the Little Chen, Qin Ziang always had a straight face that was filled with dissatisfaction.
"Hahaha …" "How could that be? Our CEO is famous for being pure and clean. Not long ago, I heard a few little girls secretly betting that our CEO was not that guy."
The manager of the Planning Department gave Little Chen a mysterious wink. Little Chen immediately understood what she meant, but she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
What and what? These people really did dare to think about it. She clearly remembered that a while ago, she had helped the CEO pick out a girl's clothes.
"That won't happen. The CEO isn't gay." The Little Chen defended her reputation as a direct superior with all her heart. However, she was not aware that due to her extreme excitement, her voice had suddenly risen to a higher pitch, blocking the sound of the door opening.
"Aiya, you rotten girl, what are you thinking about? I'm talking about that first time, virgin! Now do you understand! " Qin Ziang's footsteps were fixed in place, the hand on the doorknob relaxed and closed, and did not move for a long time.
"Hahaha …"
"Cluck, cluck, cluck …"
The two women outside the door were chatting merrily, and laughter was occasionally heard mixed with it. Qin Ziang only felt his head aching.
With a gloomy face, Qin Ziang slammed the door. He walked to the side of the desk and casually picked up the phone.
A minute later, Little Chen and the manager of the planning department, who were happily gossiping just a moment ago, returned to their jobs dejectedly with fear written all over their faces.
When Qin Ziang came out of the office again, the outside had already calmed down.
"The planning department meeting tomorrow afternoon will be moved to the morning." With that, Qin Ziang left. Only the Little Chen was left in a mess in the wind!
The planning department's meeting was supposed to be held at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon, but if the time was suddenly changed, it meant that the planning department had to complete the plan before the end of the day. After she submitted her proposal, she would make a report on tomorrow's meeting!
All in all, there was no need to run during today's overtime! Little Chen could not understand, wasn't the CEO in a good mood today? How could she change her face so suddenly without any warning!

Qin Ziang had received him at a crossroads.
"Why did you come here? Didn't you say I was going to pick you up?" If it wasn't for his good eyes, which saw An Xiaochu walking slowly on the street corner from far away, the two of them would have definitely missed him today. Qin Ziang had a headache from An Xiaochu's disobedience.
"Today, I had a shift early, so I wanted to take a few steps and take it as training my body." An Xiaochu knew that when she was lying, she would look especially guilty and afraid to look at others, hence she did not raise her head at all as she stared at the safety belt and replied gloomily.
"Someone bullied you?" With how low the atmosphere was, it was obvious that it was not An Xiaochu's style. Qin Ziang frowned, and immediately stopped the car by the side of the road.
"No, what are you thinking about? I'm just bored." An Xiaochu looked up and saw that Qin Ziang's expression was overly serious and cold. A person's concern could be faked, but the warmth in his eyes was hard to fake.
"Are you bored?" I'll take you out one day when I have time. " Seeing that An Xiaochu did not seem to be alright, Qin Ziang nodded his head thoughtfully and drove An Xiaochu back to the villa.

"Young Master, this is what you wanted me to prepare. It's all done." An Xiaochu looked at the table that was filled with dishes, and started to eat.
"Wouldn't it be too much of a waste for just the two of us to eat?" An Xiaochu didn't think that Qin Ziang would bring her home to eat. While being surprised, she also felt a bit of hidden joy.
She remembered that someone once said that only when a person truly admitted another person's feelings would they bring her to meet their family and friends. The Steward Yao should be considered Qin Ziang's kin!
