C24 No Need to Thank Me

"Do your best?"

Seeing Yun Yefeng's serious look of hunger, Xia Xiaoyu couldn't help but repeat Yun Yefeng's words. However, she shook her head and said.

"Forget it. You just need to handle your own matters. As for the rest, you don't need to thank me. Just run the company well."

Xia Xiaoyu's words surprised Yun Yefeng. He had never thought that Xia Xiaoyu was such a person who didn't ask for anything in return. However, he still nodded and followed Xia Xiaoyu's words.

"Since you can't think of anything now, we'll owe you first. When you think of something that you need my help with, just tell me. I'll definitely do it."

"That's right, that's right. Miss Xia, you don't have to be so polite to him. I'll be the witness. After all, in order to help him, you've lost your reputation."

Roy didn't say anything, but when he spoke, the atmosphere between the two of them became even more awkward.

Xia Xiaoyu didn't know what to say after hearing Roy's words. Yun Yefeng felt helpless as well. Why didn't he realize that Roy was such a talkative person?

"Alright, alright. It's getting late. The cocktail party is about to end. I'll send you guys back."

Yun Yefeng could only find another excuse to ease the awkwardness between the two of them. Luo Yi knew what Yun Yefeng meant, so she did not continue to make things difficult for Yun Yefeng. She nodded and said.

"Okay, okay, I got it. You don't have to send me. I'll go back myself. Miss Xia helped you so much today. You have to thank her properly. Remember... You have to send her home safely. "

The words' safe 'were especially deliberate. Everyone could hear the meaning in Roy's words. Fortunately, Xia Xiaoyu did not react in time this time, so she did not say anything.

"Alright, I will send Miss Xia home safely. It's getting late. Since you want to leave alone, you have to be careful on the road. I won't send you off."

At this moment, Yun Yefeng only wanted to send Roy away as soon as possible. If Roy continued to stay here, who knew what he would say? It would only make the relationship between the two of them more awkward.

"Look, they are already starting to chase people away. Alright, alright, I won't say anymore. I will leave now. I won't disturb the two of you."

After saying that, Roy waved at Yun Yefeng and turned around to leave.

Seeing that Luo Yi had finally left, Yun Yefeng let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and smiled at Xia Xiaoyu. He made a welcoming gesture and said.

"It's getting late. Let's go. I'll send you back first."

Xia Xiaoyu hesitated. Yun Yefeng knew that Xia Xiaoyu cared about what Roy had just said, so he spoke again.

"Don't worry. I'll definitely send you home safely. I promise."

Hearing Yun Yefeng say so, Xia Xiaoyu felt embarrassed to continue rejecting him. She nodded and agreed.

"Then I'll have to trouble you. Let's go."

The two of them left the cocktail party together. Originally, Xia Xiaoyu was not a taciturn person. However, for some reason, when the two of them were in the car, Xia Xiaoyu remained silent and did not say a word.

The atmosphere became more and more awkward. Yun Yefeng could not help but take the initiative to speak.

"Don't take Roy's words to heart today. She is that kind of person. She likes to joke around with everyone, but she has no ill intentions at all."

Yun Yefeng's words were meant to ease the awkwardness between him and Xia Xiaoyu. However, he didn't expect that Xia Xiaoyu would become even more silent after hearing those words.

Yun Yefeng felt extremely awkward, but he didn't know what to say. After a while, Xia Xiaoyu finally spoke.

"It's alright. Actually, I didn't take her words to heart. I was just thinking about my own matters."

"Your own matters. Is there anything that you can't resolve by yourself? Otherwise, if you tell me, I might be able to help you."

Yun Yefeng couldn't help but speak with concern. However, he didn't expect Xia Xiaoyu to only shake her head when she heard Yun Yefeng's words. There was a hint of frustration in her tone.

"No one can help me with this matter, so it's useless even if I say it out loud. There's no need to worry about other people. Forget it. Things might get better after a while."

Xia Xiaoyu had already said so. Yun Yefeng had known for a long time that perhaps there were some private matters that Xia Xiaoyu did not want anyone to interfere with, so he did not continue to ask. He could only change the topic once again.

"To be honest, tonight, I really did not expect you to take the initiative to help me. I'm flattered."

Yun Yefeng's words carried a hint of a smile. When he thought of Xia Xiaoyu's previous appearance, he could not help but want to laugh. She had clearly taken the initiative to say that she was her boyfriend, yet she kept a distance from him at all times.

"Don't think too much about it. I'm really not interested in you at all. Actually, the reason why I'm doing this is for the sake of my family's company. You can't let all of our hearts go to waste just because of you, can you? "

Xia Xiaoyu's words sounded reasonable, but if one thought about it carefully, it didn't seem to make any more sense. However, Yun Yefeng didn't intend to refute her words. Instead, he continued to speak in accordance with Xia Xiaoyu's words.

"Yes, you're right. I know that you're definitely not doing this for me. I'm insignificant. You're only helping me because of the company. However, I still have to thank you. What I said just now has always been true. "

Yun Yefeng could not help but emphasize again. This time, Xia Xiaoyu finally raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes were somewhat complicated. She did not know what she was thinking in her heart. However, she finally nodded and said softly.

"Yes, I know, but let me give you a piece of advice. Don't be too full of yourself. Don't worry. If I really need your help in the future, I won't be polite to you. "

Xia Xiaoyu paused for a moment and continued.

"However, I'm afraid that you won't be able to do what I ask of you. That would be too embarrassing."
