Su Zixi was a bit confused. He Jingyaoâs second uncle was really nothing like she had imagined. He was also a bit too gentle with her, and if it hadnât been for the fact that this was the first time she had met this man, she might have thought he liked her.
If he treated every girl like this⦠she really didnât know how many girlsâ hearts he might hurt.
Lost in her wild thoughts, Su Zixi finally reached the top floor when the elevator stopped.
She walked out with her head down, but suddenly a shadow appeared in front of her.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked up, meeting He Jingyaoâs eyes that were smiling but not really smiling.
âJingyaoâ¦â she raised her hand a little and greeted him with a sheepish smile, âIâm here to report⦠Uh, should I go to HR first?â
He Jingyao gave her a deep look, grabbed her wrist, and said, âCome with me.â
Su Zixi obediently followed behind him.
This entire floor was the presidentâs office area, so it was designed as an open space. As Su Zixi walked by, she saw all of He Jingyaoâs assistants and secretaries, a total of more than twenty people. Their expressions upon seeing Su Zixi being led by the wrist by He Jingyao were as if they had seen a ghost.
Strangely, there wasnât a single woman among themâ¦
After turning a corner, they reached He Jingyaoâs office.
Before Su Zixi had time to observe carefully, she was embraced around the waist by the man, and then, with one hand cradling the back of her head, he bent down and kissed her deeply!
âMmm!â Su Zixiâs hands pressed against his chest, desperately pushing him away.
He Jingyao frowned slightly, simply grabbed her wrists preventing her from struggling, then pushed her onto the desk, kissing her without any restraint!
Overwhelmed by his kisses, Su Zixi found it hard to breathe, and what was most important was⦠this position was really uncomfortable. Her back was pressed against the hard desk, and in front, she was being pressed by this man, with her wrists held tight⦠Her face turned beet red.
It took the man a full minute to finally release her. His breathing was rapid, his eyes dark, and his fingertips lingered caressingly on her cheek.
Su Zixi was left gasping for air.
Seeing her exhausted and unable to bear his ravishing, He Jingyao lazily chuckled, helped her up, and held her in his arms: âHave you taken leave from school?â
Su Zixi nodded weakly, struggled a little, but as usual, without success. Feeling frustrated, she decided to change the subject: âBy the way, I ran into your second uncle in the elevator just nowâ¦â
He Jingyao responded nonchalantly with a âHmm,â stroking her hair: âWhat did he say to you?â
âUh⦠he said if you bullied me, I could go to him and he would definitely stand up for me,â said Su Zixi, sneaking a peek at his face.
He Jingyaoâs expression darkened slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly: âDid you agree?â
âOf course not! How could you bully me!â Su Zixi said indignantly.
He Jingyao expressed satisfaction: âYou know whatâs good for you. He just happens to be back in the country for the moment; heâll be off to Country S in a few days, so he probably wonât have the chance to stand up for you.â
Su Zixi nodded, then couldnât help but express her curiosity: âYour second uncle looks so young.â
âOh? Just young?â The man raised an eyebrow, his voice cool.
Su Zixi was taken aback. Was it her imagination, or was there a hint of jealousy she detected?
Could he be worried that she had been charmed by He Yizheng? Su Zixi thought with a secret smile.
He Yizheng was certainly very good-looking, but where could he compare to Master Heâs natural charmâ¦
