Chapter 596: She didn’t believe him at all.
Xu Hui quickly closed the door, turned around, and lowered his voice, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? You didn't say you wanted to play your girlfriend in the company. Tell me the truth, are you deliberately using me to ward off romantic interests?"
Ji Chuan put down the pen in his hand, looked up at her for a few seconds, and said, "Is it bad for you? Don't you see that there are wolves all around us?"
Xu Hui rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "So, you're willing to sacrifice yourself to protect me? Not to dissuade Lawyer Wei from leaving?"
She doesn't believe him at all.
Can he be so kind?
It was obvious that he asked her to be a shield.
"I guess Miss Wei is hard to offend? That's why you invited me here, hoping to make her back off. That was a brilliant move of yours. I saw her face turn green with rage just now, and she wanted to kill me right then and there."
"I finally understand. No wonder you insisted on inviting me here. You're killing three birds with one stone."
"This kind of work is really not something someone with poor mental preparation can do. Who is this Lawyer Wei? She seems so aggressive. Can you introduce her to me so I can be mentally prepared? I don't think she'll let me off easily."
"I'm telling you, if anything happens to me, it'll be considered a work-related injury."
She had an expression on her face that showed she was already immersed in the role, with a bit of excitement and a bit of timidity and caution, which was very exciting.
As the person involved, he was not as indifferent as she was. She saw that his brows were gloomy and his thin lips were tightly pursed. He didn't speak for a long time.
Xu Hui realized that he might have talked too much and crossed the line, so he immediately changed his tone to serious. "I'm kidding, I'm not complaining to you. I have no opinion at all. Honestly, I feel much more balanced now. I used to think the salary was too much, but now it's not. I think I'm worth it. When it comes to acting skills and mental toughness, no one can compare to me."
"Don't worry, I will cooperate with you unconditionally."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard him utter two words, "Come here."
"Um?"
Xu Hui took two steps forward hesitantly and saw that he had also stood up from his seat. Then he pulled her with his big hand and brought her to the back of the desk. Her butt was leaning against the edge of the desk, and his office chair was in front of her. He sat down on the chair, still holding her hand.
Xu Hui was still in a daze when he heard a knock on the door behind him. Before he could answer, the person came in rudely, "Senior Brother..."
Wei Wei was about to walk in with a stack of documents in her hand, but the moment she raised her head, she stopped and her face suddenly darkened.
Xu Hui felt Ji Chuan's thumb rubbing her palm twice, which made her feel itchy. The two of them were too close to each other, and although there were no drastic movements, it was still ambiguous enough.
Moreover, it happened too suddenly. She was not prepared at all. There was no rehearsal or transition. She was pulled in front of him at the last minute. Her heart was pounding and it was beating wildly.
Fortunately, the people behind her couldn't see her face. She looked dazed and didn't dare to look back or even move.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Ji Chuan looking towards the door, his brows slightly furrowed, and a trace of annoyance at being suddenly disturbed appeared on his face.
"Sorry to bother you, I'll come back later."
Xu Hui didn't look back, but just by listening to Wei Wei's voice, he could feel her embarrassment and sadness at the moment.
She felt a little sorry for Wei Wei. Liking someone was not a heinous crime. Men were really cruel. Or rather, the man in front of her was really cruel.
The sound of a door closing came from behind. Xu Hui's hand was still holding his. She moved, hinting him to let go. "She left, right?"
He let go of her hand, raised his eyes to glance at her, and moved his thin lips slightly: "Your mental quality is average."
He also commented on it.
The blush on Xu Hui's face slowly faded. She moved away from him and retreated behind the desk. She whispered back, "I just don't react as quickly as you."
He didn't mention that there are action scenes.
