It was Li Xi's first time in such a high-end office building. There were not only security guards but also greeters at the entrance. The receptionists were all well-dressed and polite.
Before she could even ask for directions, a helpful young woman approached and asked, "How can I help you?" Is this a company? This is pure heaven.
However, Li Xi also knew that she had never been in the company before, and no one knew that she and Luo Jingxuan were a legal couple. If she rashly told the front desk that she was looking for Luo Jingxuan, holding an insulated box in her hand, she might be seen as someone who was trying to get him to pay her out.
After gently writing to the receptionist, she called Assistant Jiang.
With Assistant Jiang personally leading the way, they looked very impressive. Even the gossip in everyone's eyes couldn't be stopped. Li Xi didn't care. She was just a passerby here, and no matter how much they gossiped, they couldn't gossip about her.
Moreover, this time, he agreed to send food to Luo Jingxuan because he could not stand Aunt Lin's eager eyes. Next time, he would definitely not agree so easily.
However, Li Xi could ignore the gossipy looks from others, but Assistant Jiang, who was walking beside her, couldn't help but ask, "Assistant Jiang, is there something wrong with my outfit today? Why do you keep looking at me?"
"No, no." Assistant Jiang waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm just curious about what the mooncakes Miss Li made taste like."
Li Xi raised the thermos box and shook it, "You want to eat too?"
"It's okay." Although Assistant Jiang said this, his eyes were fixed on the thermal box.
"..." Li Xi was speechless. She really wanted to eat it. "I'm just trying it today, so I don't have many finished products. I only brought four for you, Mr. Luo. If you want to eat it, I'll give you one later."
"How can I be so embarrassed?" Upon hearing what Li Xi said, Assistant Jiang's eyes lit up a bit and he smiled a little foolishly, "How can I be so embarrassed to snatch the food that Miss Li specially prepared for Mr. Luo."
"..." Assistant Jiang is really good at talking. Don't say that next time. "I didn't prepare it specially for him. I just wanted to eat it myself."
As the two of them were talking, they arrived outside Luo Jingxuan's office.
Assistant Jiang went forward and knocked on the door. After receiving a response, he pushed the door open and invited Li Xi in.
Li Xi was a little nervous about actually entering Luo Jingxuan's office. The overbearing CEOs in novels and TV dramas all had a certain sense of territory, especially when it came to their study and office. It was like some kind of plot twist, and they were very averse to anyone who was just a nobody setting foot in those places. While Li Xi wasn't useless herself, her character was.
She didn't know what Assistant Jiang had said to Luo Jingxuan, asking him to agree to bring her food. Li Xi was worried that the message wouldn't be relayed well, and that she would end up like in novels, where Luo Jingxuan would humiliate her with a few words and run out of the office crying, sparking a wave of gossip in the office.
Of course, crying was out of the question, and she wouldn't let Luo Jingxuan humiliate her. She was just a little nervous, sobbing.
But once I actually stepped into Luo Jingxuan's office, I wasn't so nervous anymore. After all, Luo Jingxuan still had that icy face. It was true that no matter where I went, seeing familiar things made me less nervous.
Thinking of this, without waiting for Assistant Jiang to speak, he placed the thermal box in front of Luo Jingxuan and said, "I made some fresh meat mooncakes on a whim today. Aunt Lin and the others said they were delicious, so they asked me to bring them to you. Would you like to try them?"
Luo Jingxuan looked up at her, still expressionless, just pursed his lips, "You said before that you would treat me to a meal after the matter was done, and I thought this was the meal you were treating me to."
"..." Li Xi stared into Luo Jingxuan's eyes, trying to see some emotion, but unfortunately, she could see nothing. "I invited you to dinner, how can you afford such a small thing? Next time, next time I'll treat you to something delicious. Hahahaha."
"Hmm." He responded coldly. Luo Jingxuan took the insulated box and prepared to open it. The moment he opened it, the aroma wafted out. It wasn't very strong, but it was enough to arouse people's appetite.
Before Luo Jingxuan could say anything, Assistant Jiang beside him had already swallowed his saliva.
“…”
“…”
Maybe it was because the office was too quiet or because Assistant Jiang swallowed too loudly, but Li Xi and Luo Jingxuan both heard it. They turned to look at Assistant Jiang, looking at him so hard that he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
"Well, it smells pretty good. Hahaha."
It was so embarrassing to hear that, Li Xi quickly said, "Assistant Jiang must be hungry too, I brought a few, give one to Assistant Jiang." Assistant Jiang usually helps a lot, so it's okay for him to eat one, and he just promised to give it to him.
Li Xi took it for granted, but Luo Jingxuan, listening to this, felt a bit uncomfortable. One moment, it was Aunt Lin who asked him to send it, and the next, it was to be divided among Assistant Jiang. Yesterday, he was so affectionate and affectionate, calling her "husband," but today, he was so unkind. Really?
ungrateful.
"Eat it." Assistant Jiang took a tissue and carefully picked up a mooncake. Luo Jingxuan also took one. A bite left a lingering fragrance. It was quite delicious.
Isn't Li Xi a pretty loser? How come she's making fresh meat mooncakes?
Luo Jingxuan's eyebrows slightly raised as he ate. He finished one in three or two bites and took another one. One after another.
Assistant Jiang watched from the side, swallowing his drool in envy. Why did they only bring four of these delicious treats? The boss wasn't considerate of his subordinates, giving them one extra. Sob.
Luo Jingxuan finished three and was about to reach for the fourth, but it was empty. His mood suddenly turned bad. He finished it already?
Glancing at Assistant Jiang, Luo Jingxuan wiped his hands gracefully. Although his mood wasn't great, his expression remained unchanged, save for a subtle frown.
"I'm done eating."
Li Xi didn't know if it was her own illusion, but she felt that Luo Jingxuan's tone was a little aggrieved. No, it must be an illusion.
