Luo Xiyun grabbed Chen Xu's hand, preventing him from touching it, and then entered the room.
Chen Xu took off his scarf, took out his mobile phone and took a picture. He saw a very small wound above his eyebrow, which was probably caused by ice chips.
After a while, she came out with a small white box and pulled him to sit on the sofa.
Chen Xu saw her take out alcohol and cotton swabs and said, "It's just a scratch, it shouldn't be serious."
"It's bleeding. What if it gets infected?" She dipped a medical cotton swab in alcohol and gently rubbed it on his wound. Seeing his brows slightly frowned, she said, "Bear with it."
After wiping it, she leaned over and blew gently on the wound.
Then, she clearly felt the changes in his eyes and breathing, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, a smile of revenge.
She blew that breath just now completely on purpose.
No matter how well Chen Xu concealed it, she could still feel his strange eyes from time to time.
Women are always extremely sensitive to men's gazes.
Humph, men, no matter how high-sounding their words are, they can’t hide the filth in their hearts.
She felt contempt in her heart.
Until one day, when she was helping Chen Xu clean the room, she accidentally discovered that there was a quarter less tissue paper than yesterday, and the amount used was far more than usual, but there was not much tissue paper in the trash can. It was as if that part of the tissue paper had disappeared out of thin air.
She finally knew how to "retaliate" against this bastard.
From then on, she often pretended to have some physical contact with him accidentally, and then, the next day, she would notice that the consumption of tissue paper in his room had increased significantly.
When she thought about how he pretended to be indifferent in front of her, but actually felt so uncomfortable inside, she felt a sense of pleasure as if she had succeeded in her revenge.
You bastard, now you have come to this day.
She had hated Chen Xu for a long time, but she couldn't force him. Now she found a way to make him lose face, and she couldn't suppress her impulse at all.
Whenever she had the chance, she would find ways to tease him. Then, she would feel so relieved when she saw him suppressing his inner restlessness and pretending to be calm. She finally got rid of the bad temper in her heart.
This time is no exception.
While eating, Chen Xu seemed a little silent and absent-minded.
After living together for a month, Luo Xiyun was familiar with his personality and defined him as someone who liked to immerse himself in his own world. Now, he was obviously daydreaming again.
After realizing this, she was no longer surprised as to why he had been able to ignore her for those three months.
I'm afraid that even if he were the only one left in the world, he would be able to live a good life.
"He probably doesn't have many friends. He's probably used to being alone..."
Luo Xiyun suddenly felt a little depressed and the atmosphere was a little dull. He couldn't help but ask, "Um, is that your girlfriend?"
"Um?"
Chen Xu was a little slow to react and looked at her in confusion.
"When I was taking out the trash, I accidentally knocked your wallet off your desk. When I picked it up, I saw a photo inside."
"Oh, that's my ex-girlfriend."
"Why do you keep photos of your ex-girlfriend? Can't you forget her?"
"What about you? Why haven't I heard you mention your boyfriend?"
Luo Xiyun looked up at him and asked instead of answering, "How do you know I have a boyfriend?"
"Many people in the company know that a handsome guy drove a Ferrari to pick you up after get off work. Things like this spread very quickly in the company."
Luo Xiyun said sarcastically, "I didn't realize you also like to gossip about others."
"I'm just an ordinary employee. Why do you think I'm an exception?" Chen Xu asked back.
"snort."
Luo Xiyun snorted coldly, obviously disgusted with the gossip in the company, "You don't work properly, but comment on other people's private affairs and spread malicious rumors every day. Do you deserve your salary?"
"If you think they are not worthy of the salary you pay, just fire them. What's the point of keeping them?" Chen Xu said unhappily. As a worker, he found such words, spoken from the perspective of a capitalist, extremely harsh.
Luo Xiyun was speechless. She had just said that in anger. She also knew that it was difficult to stop employees from gossiping about each other in private. It was human nature and it would remain the same even if she replaced a group of employees.
She immediately changed the subject. "His name is Du Feng. He is an executive at a technology company and has a PhD from MIT. His parents and my family are old acquaintances. He is 5 feet 4 inches tall, very handsome, has a rich family, and is educated and capable. Everyone says he is the perfect match."
Chen Xu nodded and said, "It sounds like we are a perfect match, not bad."
"Really? I thought you were going to say I wasn't good enough for him."
Chen Xu looked at her in surprise, "Aren't you usually very confident?"
“It used to be.”
Luo Xiyun had almost finished eating, put down his chopsticks, and said, "But after meeting someone, humph."
"Are you talking about me?"
Chen Xu couldn't help but laugh. "Actually, the reason why I wasn't seduced by your beauty is not because you're not pretty enough, but because I know that there's no chance of anything happening between us. If it's impossible, then don't even think about it."
Luo Xiyun asked, "Have you ever been hurt by love before?"
"It's not a sentimental injury."
Chen Xu said, "After hitting a wall many times, you will naturally know your own strengths and weaknesses. Often, you only need to show a little interest, and people will block all your escape routes. Some will just lure you and play you around. Others will simply reject you before you even do anything."
The last sentence obviously refers to Luo Xiyun.
Luo Xiyun's face once again showed sarcasm, "You back off after hitting a snag. Is this how you pursue a woman?"
"When you scratched the lottery ticket, after you scratched out the word 'Thank you', did you have to scratch out the next three words?" Chen Xu asked.
"Can this be the same thing?" Luo Xiyun said excitedly, "Sometimes women reject you just out of modesty, but you keep chasing after them. Don't you know how to pester them? You give up so easily, you deserve to be single."
Chen Xu was unmoved and said, "I think there's nothing wrong with being single."
"These are all your excuses to escape." Luo Xiyun said coldly, "Do you dare to say that you have never been particularly eager to have a girlfriend?"
