Chapter 240: Chapter 240 Obsession
Su Zixi couldn’t figure out why, despite being very familiar with this man, she still felt a momentary dizziness every time she saw him.
It was just the duration that varied.
That morning, perhaps because the light was too bright, the quietly seated He Jingyao seemed even more dazzling.
So she stared blankly a little longer than usual.
It wasn’t until He Jingyao set down his cup and looked up with a slight smile, “Come here.”
Only then did Su Zixi snap back to reality and suppress the restlessness in her heart, hastily taking a seat next to him.
The man’s left hand wrapped around her waist, leaning close to her ear with a warm breath, tinged with laughter, “Why were you daydreaming just now?”
Su Zixi tensed up, having thought he hadn’t noticed…
She gave a sweet smile, feigning innocence, “I wasn’t daydreaming.”
He Jingyao gazed deeply at her.
Su Zixi widened her eyes and continued to look innocent…
“Not bad, you’ve improved,” he praised with a nod, his fingertip grazing her rosy lips, his voice slightly husky, “This time you didn’t even blush.”

Su Zixi had indeed held her composure, but after he said those words, her cheeks gradually grew warm, and her gaze started to wander…
He Jingyao chuckled softly, turned and trapped her in the couch, leaning down to nibble her lip. A kiss so fleeting, yet it left Su Zixi breathless and her eyes misty.
He Jingyao’s fingertips gently caressed her cheek, his gaze dark and profound.
Since when had it started? From her initial resistance to him, to an involuntary affection, and now, to infatuation. Despite the fact that he had not actually done much.
Almost every time, he could see in her eyes a light that belonged to him alone, a small but astonishingly bright flame, with a tenacious vitality.
Such an unexpected glow always stirred an indescribable joy deep in his heart.
He cherished every minute and second spent with her.
Li Bo had said that he would definitely feel it when love arrived.
So, was this feeling love?
There were many times he felt it might be, yet he worried that if he was wrong, it would disappoint her.
His gaze was so focused, so intense… it even contained something else, something that made her anticipate yet fear.
Su Zixi’s heartbeat unintentionally accelerated, and she murmured unconsciously, “Jingyao…”
“Hmm,” he responded softly, then suddenly laughed, “I almost forgot about the matter at hand.”
Only then did Su Zixi remember her purpose, her face flushing red as she pushed him, “Where is the beta version?”
He Jingyao finally released her, reached out to open the laptop on the coffee table, and pushed it towards her, “This is the web version. The basic functions are the same as the client. Try it out.”
Su Zixi’s eyes widened in delight, she quickly grabbed the laptop onto her knees and began to try out the features one by one.
“This is fantastic!” her face lit up with excitement, her eyes shining, “The tech department has really outdone itself. They implemented everything! I didn’t communicate much with them, so I was worried they wouldn’t fully understand my vision, but… the result is even better than I imagined! Those tech guys are incredible!”
While she spoke, her gaze was fixed on the screen, filled with surprise.
Observing her animated reaction, He Jingyao suddenly felt a bit displeased.
