Burning Love: The Scapegoat Bride of The Cold-blooded President

Chapter 53: Dark office

Views:

What awaited her was still silence.

Mingxi secretly felt lucky that he was not there and also breathed a sigh of relief. But just when she was about to relax every cell in her body and wanted to leave, the office door suddenly creaked and cracked.

Mingxi was so frightened that her hair stood on end.

You know, this floor was so quiet and deserted that there was not a single sound. She stood at the door for so long but didn't see a single person.

In the dignified Mutian Group, there was not a single person to be seen! Of course, except for the dense crowds on the first floor.

Ming Xi swallowed her saliva, then carefully pushed the door open a little bit and asked in a low voice: "Master, are you in there? Can I come in? If you don't make any noise, I will take it as your consent, okay?"

Mingxi waited quietly for thirty seconds, but received no response of either yes or no. Mingxi took a deep breath, pushed open the door and walked inside.

However, as soon as she stepped in and before she could even take a look at the office, she was pushed against the wall by an extremely strong force.

Mingxi, who was completely unprepared, was frightened out of her wits by the sudden external force. She closed her eyes and screamed with all her might.

However, her scream lasted less than three seconds, and something soft and wet immediately blocked her mouth.

Instantly, the unique scent of masculinity filled her nose, gradually surrounding her, and even engulfing her...

Mingxi was completely stunned standing there, allowing the unknown man to invade her. She forgot to resist and could only open her eyes in horror, trying to see clearly the man who was forcibly kissing her. However, the moment she opened her eyes, she found that the office was actually pitch black.

Mingxi was stunned again, not quite understanding why the president's office was so dark. She couldn't tell whether it was day or night outside from inside the office.

Why is the CEO's office so dark? Is it because his heart is dark? Or does it mean that his life has lost all color and only darkness remains

President's office

Only then did Mingxi remember where she was and understood who the man who was kissing her was!

Who else could it be but him

Thinking that it was him, the husband who called her "not a wife but a dog", the fear in her heart faded away and rose again.

Mingxi twisted her body to get free from his tight pressure, but his hands that were restraining her shoulders were like steel bars, binding her tightly and making her unable to move at all!

Xue Qijing's kiss was domineering and not gentle at all. He kissed her hard as if in revenge and punishment, depriving her of the oxygen she needed to survive.

It was not until Mingxi was about to suffocate that Xue Qijing reluctantly released her lips. The hot masculine breath he exhaled hit Mingxi's face.

Mingxi's little face instantly turned red in the dark office, and she felt like her face was burning.

She never knew that his kiss could actually make her heart beat so fast that it messed up the rhythm.

Mingxi frowned in embarrassment, then lowered her head shyly.

In the darkness, Xue Qi was shocked to see Ming Xi's reaction. Thinking of the men he had just sent to monitor her coming to report her whereabouts today, he could not help but feel furious. "Baby, who did you meet today?"

Xue Qijing's cold voice rang out in the dark office. His voice was so faint that Mingxi couldn't help but shiver.

By interrogating her directly like this, he must have known that she had met Xue Qiwei today.

Although he concealed his anger very well, thinking that others would not be able to see through him if he covered up his anger, he did not know that he would be extremely calm every time before he got angry, which was something that any normal person could see.

Ming Xi carefully pushed Xue Qijing away, took out the gold card Xue Qiwei gave her from her arms, and said softly, "Master, the stinky pig man, he came to return the card to me out of kindness, this card is back to you!"

Even in the dark, Mingxi could still clearly feel his questioning and cold gaze. His gaze was like a sword, trying to pierce her.

Xue Qijing didn't take the card, but looked at her for a while before looking away.

He sneered, "Stinky pig man?! Ha... I don't remember you two having such a close relationship! Tell me, when did you start to seduce him?"

Xue Qijing gritted his teeth as he said this. Thinking of the photo his men had just handed him, he was so angry...

They actually hugged each other!

Mingxi's eyes flashed with panic, and she realized that she had just said the wrong thing. She hurriedly explained: "No, it's not the stinky pig man, but the second young master! He came to return my card!"

Xue Qijing sneered, turned around and walked to the window and opened the curtains.

The strong and dazzling white light instantly illuminated the entire office. Mingxi was a little uncomfortable with the sudden appearance of light and could only raise her hands to cover her eyes.

She squinted her eyes and looked through her fingers at the man standing in front of the window, but her heart trembled violently when she saw his back...

Mingxi couldn't believe her eyes, and her half-closed eyes suddenly opened wide.

Why did she see his back without the previous arrogance and indifference, but a sense of loneliness? Moreover, he looked very lonely...

Is it an illusion

Or is it because he didn't play a trick on me today that I feel sympathy for him

Sympathy? Mingxi was shocked by the word that suddenly popped up in her mind.

Would I feel sympathy for him

He can get whatever he wants, the whole world belongs to him, he has nothing to lack, does he need sympathy

Mingxi couldn't help but want to laugh at herself, but because Xue Qijing was there, she had to hold it back.

"She used to like standing high up and looking down at the whole city. She said that as long as she stood high up, she could see what she wanted. She said that as long as she stood high up, she could be noticed by everyone. She liked the feeling of being looked up to by others."

"So, every time she and I go to a city, I will build the tallest building for her."

"I like to see her happy smile when she stands on the highest building and sees the whole city. That smile is like sunshine, warming my heart; that smile is like honey, moistening my heart. But, I can't see it..."

She? Are you referring to Li Xue

Looking at his sad face and listening to his words that exuded a strong sense of loss, Mingxi felt sad.

She finally understood where the sympathy came from.

She killed the woman he loved most in his life, so she sympathized with him. But why did she have an indescribable feeling in her heart? That feeling made her want to cry!

"If she appears again, I will definitely hold her tightly and never let her out of my sight. I won't allow her to do that even for a second!"

"Ever since that night when she stayed with me, I swore to love only her in this life. But, I can't even protect the woman I love the most... Am I useless? Today is... is..." the day my father left.

Ming Xi took a breath and listened to Xue Qijing's hoarse voice. Was he still the strong, cold and emotionless man he usually was? It turned out that he also had weak moments!

Tears quickly slid down her cheeks to the ground. She ran over and hugged Xue Qijing's back. She choked for a long time and only uttered three words, "I'm sorry!"

Now she really couldn't say a word. All of this was caused by her. Listening to Xue Qijing's sad voice, she really blamed herself to death!

"Am I useless? Although I am a millionaire in my career, I am poorer than a beggar in my love life! Maybe she doesn't love me enough, so she is willing to leave me..."

Ming Xi pressed her face against his back and shook desperately, her hot tears seeping into his black suit. "It's not that you are useless, nor that she doesn't love you enough, but that she committed suicide because she loved you too much. No woman can tolerate the man she deeply loves marrying another woman. I'm sorry, I ruined your happiness, I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..."

Listening to his extremely frustrated words, her heart ached, aching for him.
