The light in the room was too dim, and Chen Yao only felt darkness in front of her eyes. She could not see Xu Zhi's face clearly, nor any expression on his face.
For a moment, all she could feel was his hot breath close to her and the pressure on her wrist.
The force was neither strong nor weak, but it carried an irresistible momentum.
Chen Yao's heart skipped a beat, "Xu Zhi, if you have anything to say, just say it nicely, you first..." let me go.
But in the darkness, the only response to Chen Yao was Xu Zhi's barely perceptible sigh, and a whisper a moment later: "Chen Yao, you're really brave." There was even an inexplicable hint of gnashing of teeth in his voice.
Chen Yao was a little confused.
What kind of thing?
She clearly didn't do anything.
Could he be referring to the fact that she hadn't checked or replied to messages much in the past few days?
She didn't mean it. Sometimes when she was busy, she really didn't have time to look at her phone.
Is this why he is angry?
After thinking about it, Chen Yao deliberately explained: "I've been busy these days, and I didn't mean to ignore the news."
Xu Zhi: "I know."
His tone was a little calmer at this time, and he didn't sound as gnashing as before, but he still kept pressing down on Chen Yao, and it didn't look like he was going to let go.
Chen Yao raised her eyebrows, and just when she was about to use brute force to break free from his shackles, her wrist was suddenly loosened without any warning.
But then, my waist suddenly tightened.
It was Xu Zhi who hugged her.
Hug very tightly.
The distance between the two people suddenly became close, so close that their heartbeats were touching, and their heartbeats were transmitted to each other.
In the darkness and silence, all sensory perceptions were magnified one by one. Chen Yao only felt that Xu Zhi's warmth and breath soon enveloped her whole body, and his breathing and heartbeat, again and again, seemed to be about to merge with her.
"I didn't expect that you would work with Zhou Cheng." His voice sounded unstable, as if he was suppressing some emotions.
Xu Zhi now knows that a big part of the reason why Chen Yao appeared in front of him was because of Zhou Cheng, and he also knows that she has been working for Zhou Cheng, but before he knew this, he really didn't expect it.
I didn't expect that she would dare to take such a risk and go there alone.
Even if there have been several years of preparation and groundwork, if Zhou Cheng sees even a little bit of the plan behind it, the outcome will be tragic.
How would someone like Zhou Cheng deal with a subordinate who has ulterior motives towards him?
Not to mention those things, how did Chen Yao get through these few years alone?
Xu Zhi couldn't bear it when he thought about the humiliation and cautiousness she had to endure for this.
Realizing that she had probably lost the first layer of her vest, Chen Yao couldn't help but gasp.
"You know everything? Did Zhou Cheng tell you? What did he say?" she asked in a muffled voice.
"He didn't say it directly, but as soon as he mentioned you, I understood everything," said Xu Zhi.
At the same time, he couldn't help but worry: "Are you sure that he has never had any doubts about you?"
Chen Yao didn't answer this question. She just pushed him and whispered, "Do we have to hug each other and talk like this? Don't you think that we are..."
