C22 Good to Meet You Again Today

After hanging up, Le Xiaoting turned around and leaned her back against the elevator. After a busy day, she felt a little tired.

Suddenly, she saw a figure beside her. Wasn't he Ji Chengxi, her "guy who was attracted to her"? He was so shocked that he leaned against the elevator and stood up straight. How could it be him! Then, did he hear what she said just now?

When she came in, she saw a figure, but she was too busy on the phone to notice his appearance. It was all because she was too short, no, he was too tall.

When Le Xiaoting saw him, she awkwardly touched her forehead with her hand and forced a smile, "What a coincidence …" "Hehe …"

"What a coincidence." Ji Chengxi smiled at him, as if he didn't notice what she just said.

Le Xiaoting immediately felt embarrassed. Why was it that every time she saw him, she would feel so awkward? Why hadn't the elevator arrived yet? Just as she was thinking, the elevator suddenly rumbled and came to a halt.

She lost her balance and leaned forward. Ji Chengxi caught her arm just in time to stop her from falling.

Le Xiaoting hurriedly said, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome!" Ji Chengxi still maintained a warm smile.

Le Xiaoting stood up straight and walked to the elevator door, knocking on it. How could it be broken at this time?

"What do we do now? Do we fight 110 or 119?" Le Xiaoting asked Ji Chengxi. She had never encountered such a situation before, so her mind was a mess.

Ji Chengxi said calmly: "You don't need to fight anything." He then walked up to the elevator and pressed the button for the alarm on the elevator. Luckily, the other party quickly picked up.

Knowing that there was a problem with the elevator, the staff on the other side made them wait patiently. They immediately called the maintenance staff on duty over and warned them to not move around in the elevator or jump around randomly.

The two of them quietly waited in the elevator. In order to ease the atmosphere, Ji Chengxi said, "The current you is different from the you on stage today."

"Hmm?" Le Xiaoting looked up and asked curiously, "How is it different?"

"Today on the stage, you were full of arrogance, like a proud princess. The current you, feels like a little cat without spirit."

"Hehe, I feel a little tired and want to go home early, but the elevator is broken, so of course I'm not in a good mood."

"From the looks of it, you're not interested in this time's show. You actually don't want to go on a blind date. Why are you here?"

"I came together with a good friend of mine, and she helped me register. She wanted me to accompany her backstage and give her some encouragement, so she came along. Seeing that she was rejected and was a bit angry, she said those words onstage, you don't mind, do you?" Le Xiaoting felt that he was not bad, at least he wasn't as arrogant and conceited as she had imagined him to be.

"No way!" Ji Chengxi replied.

"What about you? Why would you come to this blind date? There should be a lot of girls who like someone with your status, right?"

"I was busy with my work and rarely had any contact with girls. Since my family was anxious, they registered for me."

Le Xiaoting smiled. "So you're taking part too?"

"Yes." Ji Chengxi replied with a smile.

Just like that, they chatted back and forth as the two of them sat in the elevator.

After a while.

Le Xiaoting said, "Why aren't the maintenance staff here yet?"

"There's no need to be nervous. They might already be here. Let's do some maintenance for them from the back."

"I wonder when it will be fixed. We won't be trapped in this night, right?"

"No way!"

Le Xiaoting suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh no, will we die from lack of oxygen and suffocation after a long time?

Looking at her nervous face with that rich expression, Ji Chengxi couldn't help but laugh. Her voice was like the gentle but not dazzling sunlight, giving people a warm feeling.

"What are you laughing at? What I'm saying is true. It's on TV and on the news. It's really suffocating."

Ji Chengxi didn't know why, but he seemed to have been smiling ever since he saw her.

Le Xiaoting looked at Ji Chengxi, who was still smiling, and was a little confused. "Is what I said really that funny?" "After a while, when it's hard to breathe, I'll see if you can still laugh!"

Just as he finished speaking, the elevator started working again with a ding. The two of them were caught off guard and fell to the side. Luckily, Ji Chengxi was quick enough to grab the elevator with one hand and Le Xiaoting with the other.

"Thank you!" Le Xiaoting said, embarrassed.

Soon the elevator reached the first floor and the doors opened.

At this moment, Ji Chengxi said, "Let's go. We don't need to worry about dying from suffocation, right?" he joked with a smile.

Seeing that Le Xiaoting was a bit embarrassed and still standing there in a daze, she walked up to Le Xiaoting and held her hand, walking out.

When they got out of the elevator, Le Xiaoting finally reacted. She stopped and looked at Ji Chengxi, then pulled her hand back.

Ji Chengxi also felt embarrassed, so he quickly let go, "Sorry, I pulled you out when I saw you standing there. I was worried that the elevator would crash again." Actually, he was just taking her hand and didn't think too much about it.

"It's alright, I should thank you instead. If you leave and the elevator breaks, I'll be in trouble alone." Le Xiaoting said.

"Hehe, you really like fantasizing. Let's go. It's so late and I'm sending you home!"

"No need, I'll just take a taxi myself. It's very convenient to take a taxi here."

"You don't have to be courteous with me. Aren't we friends now? Or are you worried that I'm a bad guy?"

"That's not it..."

"Then come with me. Didn't you want to go home early to rest?"

"Oh." Now that the conversation had come to this, any more rejection would be considered coquettish.

Thus, she followed Ji Chengxi to the parking spot.

Gentleman Ji Chengxi opened the car door for her and said, "Get on!"

"Thank you!"

Le Xiaoting sat inside.

After the car started moving, it finally stopped below Le Xiaoting's house.

"Thank you so much for today!" Le Xiaoting said.

"Then how are you going to thank me? You're not just talking about it, are you? "

Le Xiaoting's expression froze and was slightly embarrassed.

"If you want to thank me, just treat me to a meal." Ji Chengxi said again.

"Huh?"

"Heh heh... "I'm just teasing you, why are you looking so serious? Are you afraid that I will eat you up?"

Le Xiaoting was a little embarrassed and quickly explained, "No …" It's just a treat. Okay, no problem. "

"Then I mean it."

"En!" Le Xiaoting nodded.

"Alright, hurry up and go up. It's getting late."

"Thank you!" After thanking him again, Le Xiaoting got out of the car.

At this moment, Ji Chengxi called out to her, "Le Xiaoting!"

"Hmm?" Le Xiaoting turned around.

Ji Chengxi smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you today!"
