I looked up subconsciously and could only see Tang Jue's handsome chin.
"You're sleeping soundly." He said, turning his head a little to look at her with a calm expression.
Qiqi woke up completely.
Only then did I realize that not only did I fall asleep with my head resting on his arm, but... I didn't know when a thin blanket had been covering me.
Did Tang Jue put it on herself
But at this moment, she didn't care about this. She just blamed herself for being so careless that she could fall asleep in the Tang family.
After adjusting her mood, she removed herself from his arm and sat up straight.
"Have you been sleeping poorly recently?" Tang Jue did not embarrass her. He had already shifted his gaze to the documents and was talking to her while flipping through them.
"I slept well." Qiqi was confused and replied perfunctorily. She just took her bag and prepared to get up. "Mr. Tang, I..."
"You slept well, but you still have dark circles under your eyes?" Tang Jue closed the file, interrupted her, and suddenly turned around, looking at her with a smile, "Is our Qiqi worried about the lawsuit?"
We Qiqi...
What he said was always so natural, yet so ambiguous.
Qiqi has always been unable to resist this unfathomable man, and her purpose of coming here was not to find him. So, she stood up and bowed awkwardly, "Mr. Tang, I'm leaving first."
But…
Just as she took a step, her wrist tightened. The next moment, a force pulled her around. When she came to her senses, her legs were spread apart and she was sitting on the man's lap, face to face.
It was hot outside, so she was wearing an ankle-length skirt today. But in this position, the hem of her skirt was forced up and slid down to her thighs.
"Tang Jue!" She resisted with some embarrassment. However, she lowered her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, and she didn't know where to push him.
He was wearing only a casual white shirt, with three buttons open, revealing his beautiful collarbone and sexy chest. His silk tie was loose, hanging lazily around his neck.
He is evil yet full of temptation, and looks like a serious nobleman.
"You don't want to call me 'Mr. Tang' anymore?" Tang Jue lifted her chin with his long fingers, letting her look at him with her clear eyes. "You hide when you see me. Are you so afraid of me?"
"... Shouldn't I be afraid of you?" Qiqi had to put her hands on his shoulders and try to keep a safe distance from him, although... they were already quite unsafe. She looked at him steadily, "There are many things that I have not forgotten."
She was referring to her father's death.
Tang Jue chuckled nonchalantly and played with the ends of her hair on his fingertips, "It's okay, forgetting those things is a matter of time... One day, you will fall hopelessly in love with me and will only remember the good things about me, Tang Jue."
With the last two sentences, he put away his frivolous smile, and his eyes were serious enough to make Qiqi panic. It was as if he really wanted to take her heart.
Qiqi's heart skipped a beat. She felt that his eyes were like a dark whirlpool, which seemed to suck her whole body and soul into it.
and…
This man is like a poppy. Even though I know he is hateful and scary, I am still bewitched by his gorgeous appearance.
"I'm leaving..." Qiqi took her hair back from his fingertips, wanting to leave even more urgently.
"How can the Tang Sect be a place where you can just enter and leave as you please?" Tang Jue held her hips with his big hands, and with a little force, he pushed her forward an inch. At this moment, the two of them collided with each other, separated only by some thin cloth.
She gasped softly, her face flushed with embarrassment.
She wanted to struggle, but Tang Jue raised his hoarse voice, "Don't be afraid that I will eat you like this, just try to move."
Every word was filled with alluring ambiguity and naked threats.
Qiqi couldn't help but think of that night. He was too aggressive, as fierce and strong as a wild animal in heat.
She even held her breath.
Her hands were clenched into a ball, leaning against the sofa behind him.
"I... I'm here to see Young Master Tang today, not you." Qiqi stated her purpose, her voice already difficult to calm down.
Tang Jue liked to see her about to lose control, so he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Talk to him about this lawsuit?"
She said in a sullen tone, "Why do you ask when you already know the answer?"
Tang Jue smiled, her smile was extremely charming, "How about this, you kiss me."
Qiqi raised her eyes to look at him.
"Kiss me, and I'll pretend this never happened. I'll ask the lawyers to withdraw the lawsuit." He said, and really put his stunning face in front of her. He looked so excited, like a child asking for candy.
Qiqi was stunned and found that she really couldn't understand this mysterious man at all.
Sometimes, it is bloody and brutal; sometimes, it is strong and domineering; sometimes, it is charming and charming;
But right now…
How many sides does he have? Or in other words, which side is the real him
Just as she was daydreaming, the cell phone in her bag suddenly rang.
Her thoughts snapped back to her original form. “I’ll answer the phone.”
Without waiting for Tang Jue to say anything, she hurriedly got up from his lap and took her cell phone out of her bag.
Anyway, I breathed a sigh of relief, but I didn't notice that the man next to me had a slightly disappointed look on his face.
On the screen, a string of unfamiliar numbers flashed.
She could feel Tang Jue's eyes still on her. She turned her back to avoid his sight, but still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
He exhaled softly, adjusted his mood, and then put the phone to his ear, "Hello."
"Ms. Qi, we are from Sunshine Law Firm. Our lawyer Li said he is willing to talk to you about this case."
"Really?" Qiqi glanced at Tang Jue, who didn't look at her anymore, just focused on the documents, serious and solemn. She breathed a sigh of relief and calmly took her bag in her hand, "Then I wonder when Lawyer Li is free. Is it convenient for me to go to him now?"
"Lawyer Li will be meeting with a client at the 928 Private Club tonight. You can meet him there at 7pm."
"928, right? Okay, I'll be there on time at 7pm." Qiqi said as she walked out of the hall with her bag. She didn't dare to look back, secretly hoping that Tang Jue, who was concentrating on reading the documents, didn't notice her leaving.
Although, that is wishful thinking.
However, when he walked out of the Tang family’s gate, Tang Jue did not chase him out.
This made her breathe a sigh of relief. She secretly decided that no matter what, she would never come here again, not even to find Tang Song.
She got into a taxi, holding her bag, but Tang Jue's words were still echoing in her mind - one day, you will fall hopelessly in love with me...
It's impossible and not allowed.
He is her enemy. Even if she falls in love with Mo Xun, she cannot fall in love with him. Otherwise, it will only lead to an endless abyss.
She hugged the bag tighter and reminded herself again and again in her heart.
