Chapter 213: I Don't Want Special Treatment
and deep eyes, cold and aloof like they held endless ice and snow. Even wounded, he still radiated an aura of distance and indifference."Big brother, we came as soon as we got the news. We've taken c...Xu Yi Xue looked at his dark eyes, paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "You can let me go now, can't you"
"I rushed over to the Seasons Apartment first thing this morning, and then I came here without stopping. I haven't had a proper rest yet." She said, giving him a reproachful glance. "I told you I went to visit Xiaoru because there was something wrong at her home, but I forgot to tell you."
Gu Xicheng stared at her lips opening and closing, his eyes darkening. Something stirred within him, but in the end, he held back, gently loosening his grip on her fingers. He compromised, "Fine, go get some rest. I'll call you when dinner is ready."
Xu Yixue smiled, a seductive and alluring smile: "No need, I'm going to work."
"Finished," Xu Yixue turned away gracefully, but the words that followed were both true and false, "I'm not the boss's wife, so how could I just say I'm taking a break"
Because Xu Yixue's project proposal caused quite a stir, the person involved was surprisingly calm. She knew when to be humble.
By noon, after everyone had left and only the two of them remained, Xu Yixue worked with a detached air, oblivious to her hunger. She remained silent, glancing at Gu Xichen beside her thoughtfully, before finally speaking, "Mr. Gu, is something the matter" She quickly added, "Are you going to eat"
Xu Yixue smiled faintly, "I understand, you wait...."
Before Xu Yixue could finish her words, the man in front of her suddenly frowned before pressing down on her with a swift movement. His icy lips were domineering and left no room for refusal as they covered hers. One hand held her head captive while the other wrapped around her waist, completely imprisoning her within his embrace.
Xu Yixue did not struggle. She watched as the man kissed her, a faint smile playing on her lips.
For a moment, Gu Xiang let her go, their foreheads touching. He breathed heavily, warning, "Don't make me hear those two words from your mouth again!"
"Not Mr. Gu then, what would you like me to call you at work" she asked softly, a playful smile in her eyes.
His hands moved down, settling on her waist. His voice softened, his eyes becoming even more tender as he pressed his face against hers, nuzzling gently. "You're good," he whispered, "you know I don't like it when you call me that."
Xu Yixue listened to this and laughed quite innocently, "What, can't you call me like this during work hours"
"Yes." Gu Xi Cheng kissed her cheek, confirming without hesitation.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yixue puffed out her cheeks and wore a troubled expression. "I don't want to be seen as a vixen trying to seduce my boss."
Gu Xicheng's eyes, as dark as ink, gazed at her intently. Hearing what she said about the vixen, his brows furrowed in displeasure.
"Wei Wei pushed him away, her fingertips lightly tapping his chest. She said nonchalantly, "There are rules in the company, don't ruin my reputation. After all..." she paused, her smile becoming more alluring, "...I do look a lot like a fox spirit."
Gu Xicheng's face darkened upon hearing this.
"Anyone who dares to speak out will surely not be able to stay in the imperial capital."
"Call me Ah Xi after work, okay" Xu Yixue rested her head on his chest, lazily saying, "I don't want to be special... There are so many people at the company, stopping one person won't stop everyone..."
"How about it" Xu Yixue blinked innocently and coquettishly said, "I only call him Ah Xi when there's no one around."
Gu Xicheng fell silent for a while, her quick wit was both loved and hated. She lowered her head, her proud nose gently rubbed against her own, and softly said, "Okay."
His easy compromise caught Xu Yixue a little by surprise, and she then smiled lightly: "I'm hungry. Should we go out for dinner or order takeout"
Gu Xicheng's eyes were deep, looking at her pitiful appearance, there was no anger left. He kissed her cheek and said, "Go out for a meal," then pulled her hand and walked out.sually saying something for you"Gu Xicheng: "..."Gu Xi looked at him with a slight smirk. "Not bad for words," he said lightly.Xu Yixue proudly curled her lips, a smug look on her face. "Of course! Ba...
