Hearing Chen Jiannan's words, Jing Zhe didn't feel there was anything wrong with it. He secretly sighed, "This kid is getting smarter and smarter!"
But Murong Xi next to her was so embarrassed that her face turned red all the way down to her neck. Not only that, she lowered her head and wished she could hide in the ground.
Murong Xi was so intelligent that she could naturally understand the meaning behind Chen Jiannan's words, and she would definitely feel shy.
Jing Zhe glanced to the side and instantly understood.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Jing Zhe glared at Chen Jiannan: "I'm going to take Empress Yueyao on another tour and learn from her later. We'll be done in no time. How are we supposed to leave if you lock the door? Besides, locking the door in broad daylight is disregarding the reputation of Empress Yueyao and me."
As she spoke, she secretly gave Chen Jiannan a wink.
Chen Jiannan understood and immediately said, "President Jing is right to reprimand me. I was rash and didn't think things through!"
Then he pointed to the corner near the door and said, "President Jing, the lock is on the windowsill—we're leaving!"
Jing Zhe nodded, and after everyone else left, he kept Chen Jiannan behind and said to him, "When everyone else goes to Ruyi Restaurant, go back and tell Xiaoyu that tomorrow is the last issue of the newspaper before the New Year, and the newspaper wants to celebrate for the next two days."
However, we were worried about not having booked Wenxiangju in advance and disrupting their business, so we decided to go to Ruyi Restaurant instead. We asked Xiaoyu to reserve three tables for us tomorrow night. If anyone asks about me, just say I went with you and we're already at Ruyi Restaurant!
"..."
After hearing Jing Zhe's explanation, Chen Jiannan was completely dumbfounded.
It seems that what he said earlier about Wenxiangju being fully booked and tables already reserved was all a lie, and his earlier guess was definitely right—these two people were going to stay here…
He looked up at Murong Xi again, and remembering her identity as Empress Yueyao, all his shock finally coalesced into one sentence:
President Jing is awesome!
"Wait a minute."
Just as Chen Jiannan was about to leave after agreeing, Murong Xi stopped him again, "Do you have any paper and pen?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Chen Jiannan quickly took it out, and Murong Xi wrote some words on it. After the writing dried, she folded it up and handed it to Chen Jiannan.
"Give this to the Holy Maiden when you go to the Fragrance Pavilion."
"Oh, yes, Your Majesty."
So Chen Jiannan said goodbye to Jing Zhe again and then left.
A large group of people had already left, and after Chen Jiannan left, the once crowded hall was instantly left with only Jing Zhe and Murong Xi.
The warm sunlight shone in through the door, making it quiet and cozy.
Jing Zhe walked over and closed the door. At this moment, Murong Xi raised her head and gestured towards him with her lips.
"What's wrong? Are you suggesting we leave the door open?"
Jing Zhe was just putting on an act when he told Chen Jiannan that; Murong Xi wouldn't take it seriously, would she?
Upon hearing this, Murong Xi rolled her eyes at him and said with a charming air, "What I mean is, you should lock the main gate as well!"
"oh…"
Jing Zhe quickly ran out, still feeling a surge of excitement. Murong Xi's directness made him a little thrilled.
For a normal person, whether they lock themselves out or in, it becomes difficult to get in and out again. But Jing Zhe is not normal.
So after locking the door, he leaped back, and if an outsider had passed by, they would have thought the newspaper office was closed...
...
Upon returning, Jing Zhe closed the door, shutting out everyone and everything.
He asked curiously, "What did you write on that note you gave Chu Xia just now?"
Murong Xi laughed and said, "Just like you!"
"Same as me?"
Jing Zhe was stunned.
"You deliberately made them all go to Ruyi Restaurant, and you also had Editor-in-Chief Chen tell Zhang Xiaoyu that you went there too—wasn't that just to make her think that we weren't together?"
After listening, Jing Zhe scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, "Well... it's all for safety! We've finally got such a great opportunity, it would be such a disappointment if someone came and disturbed us!"
Murong Xi nodded in agreement, "Yes, that's what I was thinking too. So I told Chu Xia to ask the waiter for some brown sugar, ginger slices, and hot water. She should close the door tightly and if anyone asks, she should say that I'm not feeling well."
"..."
After a brief analysis, Jing Zhe gave her a thumbs up.
Because Ruyi Restaurant is too far from Wenxiangju, Zhang Xiaoyu, upon hearing that she had gone to Ruyi Restaurant, would most likely not go there. Therefore, she would definitely check if Murong Xi was there. If Murong Xi was not there, then the lie would be exposed. If Murong Xi was there, Zhang Xiaoyu and Zhu Xinning would definitely not think too much about it.
With Chu Xia saying that, Zhang Xiaoyu, being a woman, would definitely assume that Murong Xi was on her period and therefore feeling unwell. She would then lower her guard, making the two of them even safer!
After he said that, the room fell silent, and the atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous.
Murong Xi looked at Jing Zhe with tenderness on her face.
If Jing Zhe were a novice, he would definitely have grabbed Murong Xi without saying a word and started kissing her passionately, then used both hands and feet to keep himself busy and happy.
But Jing Zhe was long past the age of a novice; having had numerous women, he was already a seasoned pro. So, his next step was to look at Murong Xi with deep affection, and then—he kissed her…
Whether you're a novice or a veteran, when faced with such a stunning beauty, nothing beats a good meal. If you can't, then have two!
Murong Xi gently wrapped her arms around Jing Zhe's waist and responded passionately. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and now Murong Xi was quite familiar with kissing, especially passionate kissing. She knew how to make Jing Zhe more comfortable.
Of course, she herself felt incredibly comfortable.
When Jing Zhe was studying video materials where only two or three people could carry a big show, he would fast forward whenever he saw 20 or 30 minutes of kissing scenes on the progress bar.
And you can't help but think to yourself: Is this even fun?
Looking back now, I realize that his mentality at the time was like sour grapes. Now that he has so many women, he still has a great interest in kissing.
Is this interesting?
Absolutely!
About fifteen minutes later, the two reluctantly parted ways, but had no choice but to, because Jing Zhe was afraid that if they kissed any longer, they would both run out of oxygen.
Murong Xi's eyes were alluring, and she was breathing heavily.
No wonder women need men; the pleasure they experience is truly captivating!
Her outfit was now in complete disarray, and it was fortunate that she wasn't wearing a skirt, otherwise Jing Zhe would have already taken it off...
