Chapter 674 It was just an accident
Shen Anning sat up, using the armrest for support, and hooked her high heels over to put them on.
"Please let him in."
Xiaoxue nodded and turned to look at Qi Yue beside her. "Mr. Qi, please."
Qi Yue responded indifferently and strode into the office.
Shen Anning stood up and calmly instructed Xiaoxue, "Xiaoxue, prepare tea and snacks for President Qi."
"Okay." Xiaoxue nodded, closed the office door, and turned to walk towards the break room.
...
Inside the office, Qi Yue and Shen Anning stood facing each other.
Shen Anning was not at peace; Qi Yue would not come knocking on her door for no reason.
Before this, Shen Anning considered last night's events as a drunken mess and wouldn't investigate who the man was.
But now that Qi Yue has come knocking, the suspicions she had just dismissed have resurfaced.
Could it be that last night... wasn't a dream?
That man, is he really Qi Yue?!
But how could Qi Yue be with her...?
Shen Anning felt it was unlikely to be Qi Yue!
Qi Yue doesn't remember her at all now, so how could he still be with her... Could it be that Qi Yue is also drunk?
Shen Anning pursed her lips, pretending to be calm as she looked at Qi Yue, and pointed to the sofa, "President Qi, please have a seat."
Qi Yue looked at her, his handsome and sculpted face devoid of emotion. He simply responded with a faint sound, then walked to the sofa and sat down.
Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Shen Anning felt even more uneasy.
She walked over and sat down opposite Qi Yue.
"Mr. Qi, is there something you need from me?" Her voice was calm, and her tone seemed casual, but in reality, her heart was in turmoil.
If the man from last night really was Qi Yue, then what does it mean that he's come to my door now?
They are both adults, so Qi Yue wouldn't come and say he has to take responsibility for her just because of one night of foolishness, would he?
Knock knock.
The knocking interrupted Shen Anning's thoughts, and she looked up at the door.
Xiaoxue pushed open the office door and walked in carrying a cup of tea.
"Sister Anning, Mr. Qi, please have some tea."
Xiaoxue came over and gave Shen Anning a glass of lemonade, and placed another glass of oolong tea on the coffee table in front of Qi Yue.
"Thank you," Qi Yue said calmly.
"Mr. Qi, you're too kind." Xiaoxue nodded slightly, then looked at Shen Anning, "Sister Anning, I'll head out now."
Shen Anning nodded.
Xiaoxue left the office and closed the door again.
The office was quiet.
The atmosphere, which had eased slightly when Xiaoxue came in to bring tea, instantly became eerie again.
Shen Anning picked up the lemonade and took a sip.
"Do you often do things like sleeping with someone and then running away?"
"Cough cough—"
A question posed without any warning made Shen Anning cough violently!
Qi Yue stared at her with his narrow eyes, then got up, pulled out a few tissues, and handed them to her.
Shen Anning put down her water glass, took a tissue, and wiped her mouth.
She lowered her head, not daring to look at Qi Yue.
How should I say it?
She said she was drunk and thought that Qi Yue from last night was just a hallucination in her dream?
No, in Qi Yue's memory right now, they are strangers who have never met. She was drunk and fantasized about Qi Yue sexually... If Qi Yue heard this, he would probably think she was a pervert.
Shen Anning closed her eyes and decided to give up entirely. "I drank myself into oblivion last night. When I woke up, I received an urgent call, so I rushed back to the law firm."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue narrowed her eyes. "So, you mean you don't care who the man you spent the night with is?"
Shen Anning stared at him, her hands on her knees tightening slightly. "Anyway, we're all adults. It's normal for something to happen when you're drunk and impulsive. There's no need to take it too seriously."
Qi Yue stared at Shen Anning, his eyes dark and deep, like a black hole, making people afraid to look directly at him.
Shen Anning stood up, turned and walked to her desk. Her calm voice echoed in the office, "If President Qi has nothing else, please leave. I was drunk and lost control last night, but these things are consensual, there's nothing to fuss about."
Qi Yue stood up, staring at Shen Anning's back, and for some reason, a strange fire rose in his heart.
"Shen Anning, are you using me as a gigolo for your amusement?"
Shen Anning leaned on the desk with one hand, her fingertips turning slightly white.
She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and smiled. Then, she turned to look at Qi Yue.
"Mr. Qi, you're exaggerating a bit," Shen Anning said with a smile, seemingly carefree. "It was just an accident. I, a woman, didn't even make a fuss. Do you expect me, a grown man, to take responsibility for you?"
Qi Yue's face was gloomy, and his thin lips were pressed into a line.
Shen Anning walked to the inside of the desk, bent down and sat in the executive chair. "President Qi, my partner is on vacation recently, and I will be very busy. If you have nothing else to do, please leave."
Qi Yue stared at Shen Anning, never expecting that the woman who had cried while holding her last night would turn her back on her after just one night.
"You said you blacked out last night." Qi Yue's voice was low, his eyes fixed on Shen Anning with a cold intensity. "Then do you remember holding me and calling my name?"
Shen Anning was taken aback.
Of course she remembers.
Although I drank too much, I didn't black out.
He was just too drunk and mistook everything for a dream.
It was precisely because it was treated as a dream that it allowed for such unrestrained and unbridled behavior...
She regrets it now, but what's done is done, and she can only try to minimize the impact.
"Are you sure I called your name?" Shen Anning looked at Qi Yue and raised an eyebrow slightly. "President Qi, it seems you're quite narcissistic."
Qi Yue frowned. "What do you mean by this?"
"My name should be Qi Yue."
"Qi Yue?" Qi Yue asked almost instinctively, "Who is he?"
“My first boyfriend.” Shen Anning looked at him, her voice very soft, “but we broke up. He went abroad and we haven’t been in contact for five years.”
Qi Yue stared intently at Shen Anning.
Shen Anning also looked at him.
The atmosphere inexplicably froze.
After a long while, Shen Anning heard Qi Yue ask her, "Do you still love him?"
"Whether you love me or not, it's all the same." Shen Anning smiled indifferently. "President Qi, we're not that close. Last night was just an accident. I don't think I need to tell you about my emotional experiences."
Qi Yue nodded, a cold smile playing on his lips. "Yes, it was just an accident, there was really no need for it."
"Then Mr. Qi, please leave." Shen Anning nodded slightly to him, once again issuing an order to leave.
Qi Yue nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Only after everyone left did Shen Anning's tense nerves finally relax completely.
She got up and walked to the French windows to look down.
After waiting for a while, I finally saw that familiar figure walk out of the office building.
The driver got out of the car and opened the back door for him.
The man stood in front of the car, but instead of getting in immediately, he turned around and looked up.
Shen Anning's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she did not flinch.
The glass has been fitted with privacy glass, so people outside cannot see inside during the day.
Shen Anning saw Qi Yue turn around and get into the car.
The black Rolls-Royce drove towards the main road ahead.
Behind me, the cell phone on the desk was ringing.
Shen Anning withdrew her gaze, walked to her desk, and picked up her phone.
It was Fu Nian'an calling, telling her to come home for dinner that night.
…
At six o'clock in the evening, Chen Anning's white Panamera drove into the front yard of the villa.
As Shen Anning got out of the car, she noticed the Rolls-Royce Wraith in the adjacent parking space.
She had seen this car once during the day; it belonged to Wen Yusen.
Shen Anning sighed inwardly.
It seems that the family has a very high opinion of Wen Yusen.
He had just gone on a blind date during the day, and that evening he invited her to his home.
Shen Anning stepped into the house.
