Who could she blame that she was just a lowly underling? She could only sit and kept quiet about her bitterness.
Shi Yuting was sitting on his sofa when he noticed Zuo Weiyi’s unhappy face, his lips unconsciously curved up.
Seeing that he was smiling, Tangteng Xi frowned suspiciously.
She was sitting right here, yet this man in front of her was eyeing that female worker?
Before she could say anything, Shi Yuting turned his head and showed a perfect grin. “I can’t help it, she’s my personal assistant. ‘Some stuff’ make us ‘inseparable’.”
Upon hearing this, Tengtang Xi frowned harder.
She turned her head to Zuo Weiyi, suspicion appeared in her eyes.
Tengtang Xi sat for the whole morning.
It was as if she was waiting for noon so she could have a meal with Shi Yuting.
“I’m a first-time visitor to this place. You don’t plan to invite me to a meal?”
Shi Yuting lowered down his gaze. It was all thanks to her that he was able to escape from his grandfather’s control, so of course, he would treat her to a meal.
“What does Miss Tengtang want to eat?”
“Just call me Xi, after all…” She looked up, her eyes sparkling with adoration and infatuation. “We’ll become a family soon.”
Even though the engagement was canceled during that night but their marriage was not obsolete. The Shi family and the Tengtang family’s marriage would happen sooner or later, this was already decided.
Hearing her sudden statement, Zuo Weiyi who was sitting not far raised her gaze and looked at the two of them on the sofa.
Miss Tengtang, Xi?
This woman…
Could it be the same Tengtang Xi that was mentioned by Shi Yuting’s mother yesterday? Shi Yuting’s fiancee?
Upon thinking about that, Zuo Weiyi felt her heart stabbed by a sharp pain as if it was pricked by a needle.
“I decline.” Looking at Tengtang Xi, Shi Yuting curled up his lips ever so slightly into a sensual smile.
Yet the smile did not reach his dark eyes, only a mask of coldness was visible.
“You and I, we’re not close.”
His word stunned Tangteng Xi.
This man was avoiding her?
Why?
She had the looks and a good figure, everything about her was perfect. Why was he not attracted?
There were many counts back in County C who wanted her hand for marriage, but this man did not even bother to look at her?
As expected from the man she loved, what a personality!
“Not yet, at least, but I believe that you’ll fall in love with me one day!”
He did not know where Tangteng Xi got her confidence from, but he felt like laughing after listening to her words.
The woman Shi Yuting love would never be her.
His gaze unconsciously wandered to the figure at the office desk not far from his.
As she came in contact with his gaze, Zuo Weiyi turned her head away. The annoyed look on her face was quickly replaced by sadness.
Shi Yuting frowned, the change in her expression from the one a few seconds before was obvious.
Following his stare, Tangteng Xi noticed Zuo Weiyi, suspicion began to swirl around in her heart.
“I will never love any other woman.” He turned his head away and smiled while standing up. “I know a restaurant that serves exquisite French cuisine, care to join?”
Tangteng Xi was still shocked by his first statement, but quickly recovered and stood up as well. “Of course!”
Both of them left the office room.
However, as Tangteng Xi was exiting the door, Shi Yuting suddenly bent his body and held Zuo Weiyi’s head in his hands when he was passing her table. Without any hesitation, he planted a kiss on her pink lips.
