Mo Chuxi seemed to be contemplating as he looked at Yan Xinxin.
Indeed, there was something very important he wanted to ask her, but posing such a question might very well arouse her suspicion.
"Mo Chuxi, you... Mm?"
Mo Chuxi opened his eyes, half-dazed and half-intoxicated, his bathrobe loosely draping over his chest, revealing his alluring torso under the glow of the crystal chandelier.
Yan Xinxin stared absentmindedly for half a second before snapping back to her senses.
"Young Master Mo, if you’re not going to ask, then I’m going to sleep."
As she spoke, she lay down, hugging a pillow and slightly turning her body to the side.
Mo Chuxi leaned down, moving closer to her side, their scents mingling.
"What did you say on the phone with Xiao Yize?"
He asked, his deep voice caressing her ear.
"Since when did the two of you become so close?"
So, after all this, it’s still about doubting me and Xiao Yize?
Yan Xinxin turned her delicate face, gazing at Mo Chuxi’s strikingly handsome features at such close range, and suddenly raised her soft little hand to touch his refined cheek.
Her sudden action made him freeze for a moment.
"Young Master Mo, why are you so insecure about your own looks? You’re the most attractive man I’ve ever seen."
Yan Xinxin parted her lips slightly, teasing him with playful words.
"Besides, there’s an agreement between us. During our collaboration, I am very clear about my role, and I guarantee!"
As she spoke, she cupped Mo Chuxi’s handsome face and swiftly lifted her pink lips, planting a light kiss on the corner of his mouth.
"Goodnight, President Mo."
Mo Chuxi was completely stunned by Yan Xinxin’s action.
Lowering his gaze, he saw the petite woman underneath him closing her eyes, already drifting into sleep.
This was too suspicious.
Before yesterday, Yan Xinxin had never been so actively flirtatious toward him. Ever since she came back from the exam today, her behavior was noticeably different.
Mo Chuxi’s gaze darkened, his piercing eyes fixed steadily on Yan Xinxin’s serene sleeping face.
He quickly landed on two possibilities.
First, something must have happened to Yan Xinxin at school.
Second, she must have experienced something with Xiao Yize.
Otherwise, there was no way she would abruptly change so drastically.
While being the recipient of her teasing brought him a certain pleasure, what he desired more was to understand the reason behind her actions.
But right now, his priority was uncovering what happened five years ago.
Even if he couldn’t yet determine what went down that night, at the very least, he could confirm one thing first.
First day of the internship.
Yan Xinxin donned the professional suit she had purchased earlier.
Standing in front of the full-length mirror, she smiled faintly, her mood vibrant and upbeat.
After dropping the two little ones off at kindergarten, it was only natural for Yan Xinxin to ride in Mo Chuxi’s car to Di Jue Group.
This was her dream company, the place she had longed to work at. She couldn’t believe her dreams had come true so soon.
Yan Xinxin rode the VIP-exclusive elevator with Mo Chuxi, raising her hand to press the button for the 16th floor.
Seeing the eager smile on Yan Xinxin’s face, Mo Chuxi felt an inexplicable sense of displeasure.
The 16th floor arrived quickly, and Yan Xinxin stepped out confidently.
"Young Master Mo, I’ve got some things to do at lunchtime, so I won’t join you for lunch. I’ll see you after work."
She spoke without turning back and walked away without hesitation.
Watching her departing figure, devoid of any reluctance, Mo Chuxi didn’t think twice before reaching out, grabbing her wrist, and yanking Yan Xinxin back into his arms as the elevator door threatened to close!
