She couldn't do such an unreasonable and burdensome thing as asking a stranger to accompany her down 17 flights of stairs.
Xiao Xingyu's gaze slowly moved from her face, inch by inch... all the way to her hand holding his arm. He raised his eyelids and suddenly said, "You didn't do this on purpose, did you?"
"?" Zhang Moyan suddenly felt the back of her hand getting hot and hurriedly let go of him, "No."
Xiao Xingyu glanced towards the emergency exit and said, "Stop talking nonsense and just go this way."
As he spoke, he walked to the emergency exit with a green light, pushed open the heavy white iron door, took a look inside, and then stood there like a doorman.
Zhang Moyan walked over and looked into his eyes, confused.
"Aren't you going to leave alone?" Xiao Xingyu reached out and pushed the door, tilting his head inside.
Zhang Moyan said "Oh". What? Didn't he mean to accompany her?
She did say she wanted to go alone, and now... I can't go against her face!
Squeezing past Xiao Xingyu (whom he'd taken up so much space at the entrance, I wonder) Zhang Moyan stepped into the emergency passage. The gray, eerie space seemed to chill the air ten degrees Celsius. Under the dim light, the stairs spiraled downward, seemingly endlessly, leading straight to hell.
Zhang Moyan was walking in front, but after a few steps, she stopped fearfully and turned around hesitantly: "Can we go together?"
So what if she got slapped in the face? She's not a celebrity, and her face isn't well-known, so what's the big deal? Besides, she slapped herself, not someone else.
"Okay~" Xiao Xingyu came up very politely, his voice lazy: "If you say it's okay, how can it be not okay?"
Each floor of the Shiyue Building had high ceilings, requiring three turns to reach the next floor. Xiao Xingyu and Zhang Moyan walked in tandem, their footsteps echoing in circles in the hallway. The lighting in the corridor was a motion sensor, lighting up when someone passed by. As the lights flickered, they always maintained a distance of two or three meters.
The empty staircase has excellent sound insulation, and anything that happens here will go unnoticed. Zhang Moyan followed a young and strong man who was not yet familiar to her, but she felt a strange and unfamiliar sense of security in her heart.
When they reached the first floor, Xiao Xingyu opened the door for her like a gentleman. After she went out, he stood at the door and instructed her, "Wait for me at the main entrance. I'll go get a car. Don't run around."
The tone is like that of a parent of a naughty child.
Without waiting for Zhang Moyan to reply, he left. The heavy white iron door slammed shut behind him, like a warning from a parent of a naughty child.
Brother Xiaowa is right. It is raining now. The rain is not heavy, but the wind is quite strong, and the rain seems to be coming with great force.
Zhang Moyan could only stand inside the glass door waiting for Xiao Xingyu. The cold wind rushed in through the cracks in the glass, making her shiver with cold.
The late spring cold snap predicted in the weather forecast has arrived, and cold air is invading. In the next two days, Shenhai City will experience abnormal heavy rains.
After waiting for a while, a black Mercedes-Benz G65 drove up and stopped steadily at the main gate.
The driver's door of the purebred off-road vehicle opened, and Xiao Xingyu came down from it with a plaid long-handled umbrella. A gust of wind lifted the hem of his coat, and he slammed the car door shut and strode towards Zhang Moyan.
Zhang Moyan quickly pushed the door open and walked out. The strong wind immediately blew her long hair over her face. The rain in the wind was so cold that she shivered. She immediately felt the power of nature.
Wrapping her coat and bag tightly, Zhang Moyan practically trotted under Xiao Xingyu's umbrella. Unexpectedly, with a "splat," she stepped into the puddle on the ground. Her right calf suddenly felt cold, and half of her trouser leg was soaked.
"Be careful!" Xiao Xingyu pulled her toward him, and with her, they hurried to the front of the car. The strong wind had truly blew her like Mei Chaofeng! Zhang Moyan quickly opened the back door of the car and climbed in.
