Chapter 98 The Arrival of the Special Assistant

"I didn't think it through and left you there alone."

Xu Yueqing was stunned.

I never thought he would apologize.

It was not his fault at all, yet he apologized to her.

She shook her head: "I'm fine."

She in turn went to comfort him.

"You didn't expect this to happen, so don't blame yourself. Besides, I'm fine."

Ji Bingqian didn't say anything, but just dipped his fingertips in some ointment again and continued the unfinished action.

His hands were still moving very gently, and he carefully spread the last bit of ointment on her face.

After doing all this, he took a half step back and looked her face up and down.

"The ointment is quite effective," he said, his tone becoming a little lighter. "It shouldn't be swollen when you wake up tomorrow."

"Thanks."

Ji Bingbingqian screwed the cap of the ointment, placed it casually on the coffee table, and then returned to his original position on the sofa.

As the man's tall figure moved away, the air around them became much more spacious.

Her tense back finally had a chance to relax.

The next second, there was a knock on the door

Ji Bingqian stood up to open the door, and Xu Yueqing also stood up subconsciously and looked towards the door.

A capable career woman was standing outside the door, wearing a well-fitting suit and carrying several shopping bags.

It’s the female special assistant Chen Lin.

"Mr. Ji, here's what you asked for." Chen Lin handed over the bag. "I also bought two extra nightgowns, thinking you might need them."

"Thank you for your hard work." Ji Bingqian nodded lightly and took the bag.

Chen Lin's gaze passed over Ji Bingqian's shoulder and naturally fell on Xu Yueqing in the living room.

The girl was wearing a men's bathrobe that barely covered her thighs, and her legs were thin and straight.

Their eyes met.

Xu Yueqing nodded politely to the other party as a greeting.

Chen Lin remained expressionless and responded with a polite smile, but her heart was already in turmoil.

It turned out that there was really a woman hiding in Mr. Ji's room.

No wonder he didn’t go back to the old house during this period and rejected all blind dates arranged by the board of directors.

Her curiosity was aroused to the extreme.

So, Mr. Ji has really let go of the past?

But it's okay this way.

Chen Lin has followed Ji Bingqian for so many years, and no one knows better than her how depressed Mr. Ji was during those years.

If this girl could make him come out of this, that would be a great thing.

Chen Lin was thinking about this when the next second, the delivery man came out of the elevator: "Who is Mr. Ji? Your takeaway from the Cantonese restaurant has arrived."

Ji Bingqian was holding the shopping bag that Chen Lin had given him in one hand, and he reached out with the other hand to take the heavy food box as well.

Xu Yueqing wanted to step forward to help.

She had already walked to the entrance and stretched out her hand.

Ji Bingqian leaned sideways, avoiding her hand and looked down at her.

"It's a bit heavy."

"Just go to the kitchen and get the dishes."

Xu Yueqing's hand, stretched out in the air, froze.

Listen to this conversation.

It seemed as if they had lived together for a long time.

The thought only flashed through her mind before she nodded and said softly, "Okay."

After saying that, she turned around and walked quickly towards the kitchen.

After watching Xu Yueqing's back disappear at the kitchen door, Ji Bingqian turned his gaze back to Chen Lin who was still standing at the door in a daze.

"Want to eat something together?" he asked.

Chen Lin shuddered and shook her head like a rattle.

Are you kidding me? You're going to stay here and be a 1,000-watt light bulb?

"No, no, thank you, President Ji!" Chen Lin's professional smile returned to her face. "I have some urgent matters to deal with at the company, so I'll leave first."

After she said that, she turned around and was about to slip away.

"Hold on."
