Chapter 285

Side Story 3 (7)

At this moment, Su Yuanzhou originally intended to ask a few more questions, but Pei An’an quickly changed the topic, saying, “I’m a bit hungry, let’s go eat quickly.” Su Qiuge also swiftly picked up the topic and said, “Right, I’m also a bit hungry. Let’s finish shopping and I’ll show you my cooking skills.”

Seeing everyone diverting the topic, Su Yuanzhou raised an eyebrow slightly, but fortunately, he didn’t continue to ask. In his opinion, this hurried change of topic was just to help Xie Xinglin make excuses, without noticing any other issues.

Later, when Pei An’an left, Su Qiuge felt a special reluctance. She watched the little girl walk towards the car in the distance, turning her head three times to look back at her. Su Qiuge smiled faintly and waved her hand towards the little girl.

The little girl pouted, then shook her hair and stepped on the skateboard, gliding away into the distance.

Su Qiuge’s gaze followed her closely, watching her ride the skateboard towards the distance, as if the once incomplete angel had finally spread its wings and soared high.

The angel who was once broken could now fly towards the sky, having her own blue sky and future.

Thinking of this, Su Qiuge couldn’t help but smile, her eyes even filled with tears. In a way, Pei An’an and she were similar. She saw her childhood self in her. That girl who was clearly soft on the inside but had prickles all over, desperately trying to protect herself, was always alone. Her eyes became a little moist, and Xie Xinglin saw it. He reached out and wiped away the tear at the corner of her eye, looking down at her, “Reluctant to part?” She hesitated for a moment and saw him slightly lower his head, his gaze meeting hers. With clear and charming eyes, he curved his lips and said, “Do you like children?”

She nodded.

He then held the back of her head and leaned close to her ear, whispering softly, “Then we should have one too.”

The warm breath flowed into her ear, making her earlobes blush. She retorted, “I, I haven’t graduated yet, and… having a child is not something you can just decide…”

Xie Xinglin looked down at her with lowered eyes, his gaze flickering slightly, then he looked at her with a lazy smile and said, “No rush, we have plenty of time…” He curved his lips slightly and revealed a lazy smile, “I will work hard for it.”

Su Qiuge: “…”

She wasn’t sure why he was particularly enthusiastic about this matter, especially the way he looked at her as if he wanted to devour her alive.

When she got off the car, her assistant placed the dishes on the counter, and she started contemplating the recipes. At this time, she heard that he had to make a sudden trip to the company. Although she said she would wait for him to come back, in reality… she planned to cook the dishes and deliver them to him.

It is said that executives always have beautiful secretaries by their side, right? Su Qiuge thought about this while crushing the vegetables. It’s probably especially true for successful individuals like Xie Xinglin. They are likely more popular among career women.

With these thoughts in mind, Su Qiuge exerted more force while crushing the vegetables.

She heard that his company headquarters were overseas, and this time it was just a branch here. However, the office building of this branch alone was already impressive.

Just as Su Qiuge entered the office building, a long-haired woman and her assistant got out of a Porsche and passed by her. The woman bumped into her, and Su Qiuge almost dropped the insulated container she was holding. But the woman didn’t even glance at her, and her assistant merely cast a casual glance before quickly walking towards the reception desk.

She faintly heard the woman say something about meeting their company’s General Manager Xie to discuss business. Looking at her ostentatious appearance, Su Qiuge couldn’t imagine her being here for business; it seemed more like she wanted to engage in a romantic rendezvous with him. So she walked up to the reception desk and said to the receptionist, “I’m also here to see General Manager Xie.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The woman raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and Su Qiuge smiled and said, “Of course, first come, first served. This lady can go first.” Due to not feeling well, Su Qiuge was dressed simply in a black coat and had no accessories, making her look out of place in this commercial building. The assistant next to the long-haired woman then gave her a quick glance up and down and asked, “You’re looking for General Manager Xie? What for?” It seemed that the long-haired woman finally noticed Su Qiuge, and her gaze fell on the insulated container in Su Qiuge’s hand. She said to the receptionist, “Can your company allow just anyone to enter?”

Compared to the long-haired woman, Su Qiuge appeared much calmer. She retorted, “What do you mean by ‘just anyone’? This is a delivery ordered by General Manager Xie. I am a delivery person from Bao Le Me, ensuring his satisfaction.” She raised the insulated container in her hand and continued, “Food is essential, and this is a matter that concerns General Manager Xie’s well-being. Sister, how can you say such things?”

The woman was taken aback by Su Qiuge’s response and gave her a disdainful look. Then she turned to the receptionist and said, “How can you let mentally unstable people like her in? Won’t it affect the clients’ mood? I will definitely report this matter to General Manager Xie.”
