"Aren't you done yet?"
Xie Jinxing looked up at her and said with a smile, "Could you wait for me for about ten minutes?"
Jiang Ningxi had no doubts, nodded slightly, stood up and sat down on the sofa opposite her.
"I'll sit here and wait for you for a while. You go ahead with your work."
Xie Jinxing looked down at the document, and after two minutes, he looked up at the person sitting on the sofa not far away looking at their phone.
Today, she wore her long hair with slightly curled ends, a white shirt and a black jacket, paired with a gold A-line skirt that revealed her rounded knees and fair, slender legs.
She was wearing a pair of black pointed stilettos, which made her feet look even more slender and long.
Her overall demeanor is refined yet carries a charmingly languid air.
Noticing him staring at her, Jiang Ningxi felt strange and tilted her head to ask.
Is there something on my face or body?
For a moment, Xie Jinxing felt a little embarrassed.
He coughed lightly, deliberately keeping a tense expression, and said in a nonchalant tone, "No, I was just thinking about whether I should arrange for someone to bring you some drinks and food, so you won't get bored."
Jiang Ningxi's pale pink lips curved slightly. "No need, I just ate, I'm not hungry."
It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it, because once she did, Xie Jinxing was reminded of the scene in the video where Chen Yanyi served her food.
I feel a little uncomfortable.
He raised his hand and tugged at his tie.
"Miss Jiang, are you very familiar with the Chen family?"
Jiang Ningxi knew immediately that he must have seen the trending topic.
Xiaoxiao said, "Of course, I'm closest to that kid Chen Qingyan."
"What about Chen Yanyi? I saw him putting food on your plate, so it seems like you two have a good relationship," Xie Jinxing asked subtly.
While speaking, he kept glancing at the other person's reaction.
Jiang Ningxi glanced at him again, then lowered her head and said while scrolling through her phone.
"He didn't serve me food; he just moved away the food that Chen Qingyan had piled up in front of me."
After saying that, she suddenly turned her head and stared at the document in his hand, narrowing her eyes.
"Are you done with your work? I keep looking at the same document, this same page." It seems like she hasn't turned the page since she came in.
Xie Jinxing: ...We've been discovered, what should we do?
He coughed lightly, blinked, and said, "Um, my eyes feel a little uncomfortable, so I want to see more clearly."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ningxi immediately stood up, walked over, and sat down opposite him.
A hand reached out and rested on his wrist, which was resting on the table.
Suddenly feeling a gentle touch, Xie Jinxing's heart skipped a beat, his Adam's apple bobbed, but his face remained calm.
A moment later, Jiang Ningxi frowned. "Is your heart not feeling well either? Your heart is beating a little fast right now."
Even Xie Jinxing, who was usually calm and collected, couldn't hold back his emotions at this moment.
She quickly lowered her eyes to hide the fleeting panic in them.
He quickly explained, "Occasionally, just occasionally, it's not always that fast."
"Of course not all the time. If you were jumping this fast all the time, you'd be in the hospital by now, not here!" Jiang Ningxi gave him a disgruntled look.
I took his pulse carefully for a while.
But this time, his heartbeat calmed down and wasn't as fast.
Jiang Ningxi then asked, "Are you feeling unwell right now?"
Xie Jinxing immediately shook his head, "No, I just still have a bit of a headache."
"I'll give you acupuncture."
"As for your fast heartbeat, go to the hospital for an X-ray when you have time," Jiang Ningxi said as she took out silver needles from her bag.
Xie Jinxing immediately replied, "I had a physical examination the day before yesterday, and the doctor said there was nothing wrong."
"It's probably still related to my staying up late. I'll be more careful in the future."
"That would be best." Jiang Ningxi gave him a warning look.
"What doctors hate most is disobedient patients."
At that moment, Xie Jinxing suddenly felt a fear he had never experienced before.
She nodded immediately, "I understand, I'll definitely listen to you from now on."
Jiang Ningxi looked up and gave him a meaningful look.
After giving him the acupuncture, I put away the needles and prepared to leave.
Xie Jinxing looked on, and suddenly felt a little anxious.
So he spoke.
"Thank you for making this trip for me again."
"I know there's a coffee shop downstairs from my office that has really good desserts. Let me treat you as a way of thanking you."
Jiang Ningxi: ...Could it be the one she just went to?
That won't work.
"No need, you're too kind."
Xie Jinxing felt somewhat disappointed.
Suddenly, something else came to mind.
So he spoke again, "Actually, I didn't eat much for lunch, and I'm a little hungry now. I was wondering if you could come with me?"
Looking into his expectant eyes, Jiang Ningxi suddenly couldn't bring herself to refuse.
After all, it seems impossible for anyone to refuse being looked at like that by such a handsome man.
"Okay then."
"But I didn't know you liked sweets?"
Xie Jinxing smiled slightly, closing the document in front of him as he said, "I didn't like sweets before, but ever since I tasted the red bean cake you made, I suddenly think sweets are not bad."
"You won the red bean cake I made?" Jiang Ningxi exclaimed in surprise.
Xie Jinxing smiled, his delicate phoenix eyes slightly upturned, and said, "Yes."
