Nan Zhi stiffened.
Speeding to the door, she peeked cautiously through the peephole with her teeth biting nervously on her lower lip.
The man wearing a black shirt and trousers was standing outside. A cigar sat between his scarlet lips while his eyebrows were straight and it made him appear slightly aloof.
It was obvious that he could not see her. However, he looked up in her direction as she snuck a peek through the peephole.
Ah!
Nan Zhi’s heart skipped a beat when her eyes met his deep black ones.
Suddenly remembering the document Yan Ran had brought over, Nan Zhi murmured quietly to Xia Yanran, “Wait for a while before you open the door. I’ll take the document to my room first.”
Nan Zhi walked towards her bedroom hurriedly.
What she didn’t know was that the door of the apartment was opened from the outside almost immediately after she closed the bedroom door.
Xia Yanran, who was still standing in front of the door, jumped in surprise. She was dumbfounded as she stared at the man who was holding a metal piece and had spoilt the door.
Young master Mu… probably was not a professional thief, right?!
The door lock was practically useless to him!
Mu Sihan clearly did not expect that Xia Yanran would be standing there. He furrowed his eyebrows as his expression was a little cold.
“Why are you here?”
Xia Yanran did not have the chance to reply when the man walked purposefully towards the bedroom after he told her to leave.
Xia Yanran froze for a few seconds from his sharp gaze, strong aura and order that prevented people from speaking.
She only remembered that she was in Zhizhi’s house and not at Mu Sihan’s place when she finally regained her senses. There was no reason for her to listen to him and she chased after him hurriedly, “Young master Mu, Zhizhi is showering. You can’t enter now…”
Before she could finish her words, Mu Sihan had already pushed the bedroom door open.
Nan Zhi had only just hidden the document in the storage chest. She spun around and frowned when she saw Mu Sihan entering her room. “Why did you come in without knocking?”
Mu Sihan’s tall body moved towards Nan Zhi when he saw the flash of panic in her almond-shaped eyes.
Taking a few steps forward, Nan Zhi pulled onto his arm with both of her hands to push him outside of her bedroom. “I’m going to shower, you go out first.”
Mu Sihan looked down at the woman in front of him. His black orbs narrowed dangerously. “What are you trying to hide in such a panic?”
Nan Zhi shook her head. “It’s nothing.”
Pulling him over to the bedroom door, Nan Zhi thought that he would cooperate and leave the room. Instead, he grabbed her hand and threw her to the wall with just a tug.
He moved towards her, his eyes dark and dangerous like a panther. Within seconds, his muscular and strong chest was pressed against her soft one and he was too close.
His large palm rested on the wall above her head as his handsome and perfect face leaned towards hers. The heat of his scorching breath touched her tender skin and she felt very constricted, like it was suddenly hard to breathe. “Kitten, will you never take the initiative if I don’t contact you?”
Nan Zhi held onto her breath as she stared into his deep black eyes. Her red lips curled up into a faint smile. “You’ve been really steamy with Qin Yubing recently. Wouldn’t I be ruining something good for you if I went to look for you?”
The moment she finished her words, his large palm grabbed her petite chin, forcing her to look into his eyes.
“At least you’re still clever.” Mu Sihan’s calloused fingers caressed her soft lips, making her feel a slight tingle from his touch.
Nan Zhi was a little embarrassed as her hand stretched out to push him away.
However, she did not expect to actually be able to push him away.
He turned and walked towards the storage chest she placed the document in.
Sh*t! Nan Zhi’s heart tightened as she moved after him, wanting to stop him. However, the man was quicker as his broad back faced her while his large body blocked her from where she was standing behind.
He bent down slightly and pulled open the storage door.
Nan Zhi’s heart sped up when she saw him taking the document file out from the storage chest. In that second, she felt like her heart would leap out of her throat.
