C45

With that, Huo Changyuan sat up straight on his upper body.

Lin Wanbai was still staring at him blankly, just like before, while his breath was still lingering on her lips.

She had thought that ?

Huo Changyuan looked at her, "You don't want to get out of the car?"

The usual cold expression remained on her face, but Lin Wanbai's face was completely red.

"No!" She shook her head.

Just as he was about to close the car door, he leaned over and said to, "Mr. Howe, I'll go upstairs first. Take care ? "Good night!"

Lin Wanbai said the last two words shyly and ran into the corridor.

He did not head upstairs immediately, but hid behind the door.

Until the White Land Rover started the engine again, she slowly revealed her head.

Under the night sky, a trace of a strange feeling flashed through his heart as he used the taillights.

"..."

The next afternoon, after a meeting at the company, the supervisor called her over.

He said that he had a case to discuss with the cooperative company and wanted her to organize the documents to accompany him.

Naturally, Lin Wanbai did not dare to be negligent and followed the supervisor out of the company after half an hour.

The cab stopped at the center of the city's most prosperous CPB area. The first thing that came into view was a towering skyscraper. It was very grand.

When Lin Wanbai saw the eye-catching "Huo Family", she understood why the supervisor brought her here. It was probably because the last time at the dinner table, he thought there was something going on between her and Huo Changyuan.

After waiting in the meeting room for half an hour, Huo Changyuan's tall figure finally arrived late, followed by his assistant, Jiang Fang.

There seemed to be a trace of surprise, but it was very short.

He was still dressed in a tall, black, hand-made suit with narrow shoulders and a meticulous tie. From head to toe, he displayed delicacy and neatness. As the blinds fell, his resolute face seemed even more three-dimensional.

After Huo Changyuan sat down, Jiang Fang, who was beside him, immediately delivered the documents.

"Sorry."

After saying that, he went back to his work and swept his gaze across everyone's faces.

However, this was the first time Lin Wanbai had seen him in his working state since she called for the Director Huo at the table.

In addition to the indifference deeply rooted on his face, his brows were tightly-knit, and the pen between his fingers was pressed on the table. There was no unnecessary talk, and it was not ostentatious, but it was awe-inspiring.

By the end of the meeting, Lin Wanbai could not help but feel a knot in her head.

Putting away the documents he had brought with him, the supervisor stepped out of the elevator.

The moment he stepped out of the revolving door of the building, someone behind him shouted out respectfully, "Director Huo!"

Lin Wanbai and the supervisor turned around at the same time and saw Huo Changyuan and his assistant, Jiang Fang, walking out one after the other.

As if it was an accident, Huo Changyuan opened his mouth lightly: "It's along the way, I'll take you guys for a while."

"Thank you, Director Huo!" The supervisor immediately answered.

There was a black Bentley parked by the side of the road. Jiang Fang ran over and opened the back door.

Lin Wanbai was almost dragged over by the supervisor. She looked at Huo Changyuan, who was sitting inside, then turned around and said to her, "Lin, hurry, take a seat in the middle!"

"Ugh ?"

Before she could even open her mouth to refuse, she was already stuffed inside.

As the driver drove, Lin Wanbai was stuck between Huo Changyuan and the supervisor. The latter seemed to be very flattered by this favor as she rubbed her hands and kept on saying words of flattery.

Huo Changyuan had always been indifferent to flattery, and he would occasionally pout.

Lin Wanbai looked in front of her and listened from her left and right ears. Suddenly, her left hand was covered by her palm.

Her heart skipped a beat.

He wanted to pull it back, but he was held back.

The warmth of his palm seeped into the back of his hand, and his rough fingers even formed a circle.

Lin Wanbai's breathing slowed down. She gritted her teeth and reminded him, "?" Huo, Director Huo? "

"What's wrong?" Huo Changyuan raised his eyebrows.

Even the supervisor couldn't help but to look at her with a very casual and serious expression.

Lin Wanbai couldn't raise her left hand and her face gradually turned red.

She knew that, like the feet she had stretched out when she had first eaten with Lin Yaoyao, she would be able to do this sort of thing with ease.

"Nothing much, I'm just very grateful to you for sending us off ?"

Lin Wanbai could only make up some kind of answer. When her face was about to turn red, Huo Changyuan's palm slowly withdrew.

What happened just now seemed to be teasing on purpose, but also seemed to be accidentally touching.

When he returned to the company, Lin Wanbai's cell phone rang just as she sat down at her desk.

It was an unknown number. She answered it hesitantly, "Hello?"

"It's me."

Lin Wanbai almost lost her grip on the separated male voice.

Huo Changyuan seemed to still be in the car. He ordered from the engine, "Come over at 9 pm."

Lin Wanbai felt her ears buzz.

The pores all over his body seemed to be expanding as he recalled his words.

"Oh ?" She obeyed.

When he realized that the conversation was still going on, he was just about to ask about it when he heard a quiet male voice say, "Remember to buy two boxes of books when you come over."

"?" Lin Wanbai almost choked on her saliva.

"Don't you know that you can only take emergency contraceptives twice a year?"

"..." "I understand."

Hurriedly hanging up the phone, Lin Wanbai's face was even hotter than when she was in the car.

"..."

Ever since she answered Huo Changyuan's phone call, Lin Wanbai's mind had been in turmoil.

After quitting her job in the pub, she had plenty of time to accompany her grandma in the hospital until the sky turned dark. She was afraid of being late so she rushed over an hour earlier.

Before getting on the bus, she went into a convenience store.

Maybe it was because of the night, but there were quite a few customers in the store. She quickly scanned through all the items on the shelves and only stopped at a certain spot.

He looked around and stretched out his hand to grab two boxes.

"What can I do for you, ma'am?"

the cashier asked as it was her turn to check out.

Lin Wanbai almost could not raise her head, and had to dawdle for a long time before finally handing over the box in her hand. Her voice sounded like a mosquito in the summer, "Cough! "Help me tie it up ?"

Holding the change, not daring to look at the cashier's ambiguous eyes, she ran out of the room.

The convenience store won't be coming back in the future...

After stuffing the eye piercing item into her bag, Lin Wanbai realized why she had come to buy it!

At nine o'clock, she got off the bus on time.

However, after entering the district, Lin Wanbai stopped walking for a long time. She didn't know where to go as she looked at the straggling high-ranking officers, but she also had the habit of emptying her phone records.

"Why isn't he here yet!"

Half an hour later, Huo Changyuan called back with a very bad tone.

Lin Wanbai looked at her shadow on the ground, pitiful like a child who had done something wrong. "I forgot which one it was ?"
