He really did not notice she was Zhui Guang. His attention was fully on the matter regarding the Red Alliance.
However, it seemed like he now had a better understanding of her.
Ye Wangchuan was in a good mood. He raised his hand, rubbed the girl’s head naturally, and smiled. “Have you chosen something yet? Which one do you think is good?”
His sudden movement surprised Qiao Nian. She was stunned and couldn’t move. The blood from her whole body gathered in the heart, and it beat very quickly.
She couldn’t concentrate, so with one of her slender white fingers, she casually pointed at something.
“This one?” Ye Wangchuan’s gaze fell on the gift she pointed at. His thin lips curled up and he leaned back. His voice became more sultry. “Are you sure?”
Qiao Nian frowned irritably and was not in the mood to see what she had chosen. She vaguely remembered that it seemed to be a child’s clothing, which looked quite cute. She nodded and said, “Yes, Chen Chen likes cute things, and that dress is very cute.”
“It is pretty cute.” Ye Wangchuan put his hand on the mouse and clicked on the webpage in front of her. He raised his head again, locked her eyes, and smiled. “But this is a parent-child clothing line. There are three pieces in total. In addition to the one meant for Chen Chen, there are also two more sets of adult clothing. I can wear the male one and you can wear the female one.”
Qiao Nian was speechless.
Why did she feel like she was tricked?
However, at closer inspection, the children’s clothing she chose had a photo of a family of three. All of them were wearing matching clothes.
Feeling a little shy, she frowned.
Looking up at the man who naturally teased her about her choice of clothes, she felt that he was a little brazen. He was a good friend, but it seemed as though he was too close to be considered a good friend.
The more she looked at him, the more she felt like she had caught on to something. However, she couldn’t fully understand the situation for a while.
“Yes?” The man’s lazy gaze met her own.
Taken by surprise again inexplicably, Qiao Nian swallowed what she was about to say. “Do you like me?” She had almost blurted it out.
Qiao Nian stared at his eye-catching face for a long time, then moved her dark eyes away. She pursed the corners of her mouth and said impatiently, “Forget it, it’s nothing.”
She was afraid of embarrassing herself like the previous time.
The memory of the previous time was still vivid in her mind.
She didn’t want to be embarrassed again.
Ye Wangchuan noticed her hesitation and was just about to ask her about it when Qiao Nian’s cell phone rang.
She breathed a sigh of relief and sat up straight. She distanced herself from the man and said, “Let me pick it up.”
Ye Wangchuan didn’t speak and watched the girl walk away. She took out her cell phone from her pocket angrily and squinted her eyes. She frowned slightly and walked away to pick up the call.
“Is something wrong? Now…”
She seemed to look over at him and then replied carelessly, “Where can I meet you?”
In less than a minute, she then said indifferently, “I understand. I will be right over.”
Qiao Nian hung up the call and turned around. She then spoke to him. “I’m going to school. There’s a computer with the programming script on it. You can ask Gu San to take it back for me and put it on the desk in my room. I will look at it when I go back.”
“Just now…” Ye Wangchuan wanted to ask her what she was going to say just now.
Gu San pushed the door in at this time and interrupted him again. Seeing Qiao Nian packing up her things, he smiled and asked, “Miss Qiao, are you leaving?”
“Yes, I have something on. I need to go to school for a while.”
Wu Jie had just called her, saying that she had something she wanted to give her in person.
