She smiled, and a thousand words came together into one sentence: "Thank you."
"Silly child, why are you saying thank you to your uncle?"
Xing Minggao stood up from his chair: "You have a good rest, and leave the company's affairs to me."
"good."
………
Ji Zhinan was busy until around five in the afternoon before he got off work.
Picking up her phone, she saw two missed calls and several unread WeChat messages. She pursed her lips and silently turned off the screen.
After Gu Yibei failed to get through on the phone twice, he chose to send a text message because he was afraid of disturbing her.
Ji Zhinan packed up and left the office and got into the elevator.
Few employees knew about ZN's small door. Even those who knew thought it was just an ordinary small door, not knowing that it was the back door for Ji Zhinan to enter and exit the company.
Usually there are not many people here.
Ji Zhinan had only taken two steps out of the small door when someone suddenly grabbed his hand.
Before she could react, a force made her take two steps back, and then she fell into a warm embrace.
Ji Zhinan wanted to push away, but an arm held her tightly.
"Still angry?"
A man's helpless yet doting voice came from above his head. Ji Zhinan paused, then resisted.
Gu Yibei placed his other hand on the back of her head, and no matter how Ji Zhinan struggled, she remained firmly in his arms.
Unable to struggle free, Ji Zhinan simply chose to give up.
"Why are you here?" Her tone was muffled and a little stiff.
Seeing her sulking alone, Gu Yibei felt a little happy for some reason. He chuckled and changed the hand that was holding her head to pinch her cheek.
"How would you know my girl is so angry if you don't come?"
It was also thanks to Mr. Gu, who was busy with all kinds of things, that he waited outside this small door for most of the day just to appease his angry girlfriend.
“…”
Ji Zhinan didn't know what was wrong with her. She was always calm and composed when encountering problems, but today after coming out of Jiujin Platinum Palace, she felt a tightness in her chest and was so depressed that she couldn't breathe.
As a result, my mind was in a mess all day and I couldn't figure it out.
But she wasn't sulking, she was just in a bad mood.
Are you really not angry?
Ji Zhinan began to suspect that he was covering up...
"Why didn't you answer my call?" Gu Yibei looked down at her: "Don't you want to hear my voice?"
When he said this, his dark eyes flashed with obvious hurt, which made Ji Zhinan, who was about to say something harsh, suddenly soften his heart and swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Although people don't often pass by here, it doesn't mean that no one passes by.
Ji Zhinan looked around and pushed the man's chest, trying to escape from his arms.
"Let me go first..."
"..." The man pursed his lips and said nothing. After a pause, he suddenly picked her up, stuffed her into the passenger seat while Ji Zhinan exclaimed, and fastened her seat belt.
Then he strode into the driver's seat and locked the door before Ji Zhinan opened it.
Ji Zhinan couldn't open the car door, so he could only turn his head and look at him helplessly: "What are you going to do?"
"Return to the Nine Brocade Platinum Palace."
When the words "Jiujin Platinum Palace" were mentioned, Ji Zhinan's expression was stiff for a moment, but it was fleeting. She bit her lip and silently turned her head to the window.
"I'm not going."
Gu Yibei didn't allow her to refuse and started the car and left.
The journey of more than ten minutes was not far. When they saw Mr. Gu’s car, the door of Jiujin Platinum Palace opened and the man’s Maybach drove directly in.
The car stopped in an open space. Gu Yibei got out and walked around to the passenger seat to carry Ji Zhinan down without even closing the car door.
