"We'd like to go up and sit for a while."
Mingdai nodded happily.
He Yaonian took Mingdai in the private elevator, which took them directly to the chairman's office floor.
After getting off the elevator, Mingdai remembered something else.
Ask He Yaonian, who is standing next to him.
"Third Uncle, which floor is Xingqiong on?"
Since she's here, I'd like to take this opportunity to meet her.
"You're here to see her?"
He Yaonian's tone was unreadable, but when he asked Ming Dai, his eyes narrowed slightly, which looked a little dangerous.
"no."
Mingdai denied it, saying, "I was just asking casually."
"She shouldn't be here; she went out with Xingjian."
"They work together, don't they?"
Mingdai believed that each of them had their own area to manage.
"Tell me why you've come to see me."
He Yaonian pushed open the office door, knowing that Ming Dai would only come to his office if she had something important to say.
"Delivering coffee."
Mingdai pretended to be stupid.
He Yaonian did not expose her.
He closed the door, pointed to the sofa, and said, "Sit down first."
He Yaonian asked, "What would you like to drink? I also have coffee here, would you like to try some?"
After asking, he remembered Mingdai's health condition.
"You should have some tea instead."
Mingdai had no objection and gracefully sat down on He Yaonian's leather sofa with her high heels.
Seeing He Yaonian personally pour her tea, and remembering her purpose, Mingdai hurriedly got up again.
"Third Uncle, I can do it myself."
"Sit down."
He Yaonian wouldn't let her move.
Mingdai had no choice but to sit down again.
He Yaonian brought over some tea and handed it to Mingdai, then sat down next to her.
"Going out shopping?"
I noticed that Mingdai was just carrying a shopping bag.
Mingdai held the teacup in both hands obediently, saying, "Thank you, Third Uncle."
She said, "I had dinner with some friends."
He Yaonian nodded, curious, "Why did you think of me?"
"Of course..."
Mingdai took a sip of tea, her almond-shaped eyes darting around mischievously.
She put down her teacup, took out her watch from her shopping bag, and offered it to He Yaonian with both hands.
"Third Uncle, I found a treasure these past few days. It's very beautiful and would suit you perfectly."
Mingdai opened the box, and the watch was on full display in front of He Yaonian.
A look of surprise flashed across He Yaonian's deep eyes, and he suddenly burst out laughing, his handsome face vividly portrayed.
He took the watch directly out of the box, carefully holding it with his long, slender fingers.
Mingdai scrutinized He Yaonian's expression like a detective, cautious yet full of anticipation.
"Third Uncle, do you like it?"
He Yaonian's throat bobbed, and his lowered eyelashes trembled several times, revealing his obvious emotions.
He lightly touched the watch face with his fingertips, then looked up and met Mingdai's gaze.
"Is this a return gift?"
Mingdai must have already guessed the price of the necklace.
Where did you buy this watch?
Mingdai shook her head. "I didn't buy it, I took the picture."
He Yaonian said meaningfully, "This watch isn't cheap."
“With Uncle’s status, how could he possibly wear something cheap?”
Mingdai's eyes darted around, clearly indicating that this wasn't just a simple gift-giving gesture.
He Yaonian looked down and stared at his watch for a moment.
After thinking about it, I put it on.
Mingdai stared at He Yaonian's slender fingers as he fastened the watch chain onto his strong wrist, her heart pounding wildly for some reason.
She craned her neck and leaned closer.
"The chain fits perfectly; there's no need to adjust it anymore."
Mingdai was excited and inexplicably satisfied by the suitability of the gift.
He Yaonian was very pleased, his tone light and cheerful, "Yes, it's just right."
Looking up, I saw Mingdai's excited big eyes.
She must have been in a good mood today; her hair was styled playfully, her dress was brightly colored, and she looked like a young girl, with a sparkling necklace around her neck.
He Yaonian couldn't help but think about that night.
Mingdai that night was very different from the one now.
That night she was passionate and alluring, but now she is innocent and naive.
"Didn't you say you weren't working? Where did the money come from?"
He Yaonian's breathing became a little rapid. His gaze swept down from Mingdai's beautiful eyes, as if he were bewitched, and quickly stopped on her full red lips.
Desire wasn't very tempting for He Yaonian, a career-driven man, but because he had once been intimate with Mingdai, his body and mind remembered the blissful and unrestrained feeling from that time, so that he would always be unusually impulsive whenever he faced Mingdai.
For example, right now, he wants to kiss her.
She sensed that He Yaonian seemed to be slowly approaching her.
His eyes were also terrifyingly deep.
Mingdai immediately became alert and pulled back, her outstretched neck springing back like a spring.
His behavior was comical.
The ambiguous atmosphere vanished instantly.
He Yaonian: "..."
Mingdai discreetly picked up her teacup and gulped down the tea, emptying the cup quickly.
He Yaonian looked away and calmly adjusted his breathing.
Seeing that she was still biting the teacup after finishing her drink, He Yaonian felt helpless.
He got up, intending to take a pot directly from the pot.
Mingdai, unaware of his thoughts, sat obediently, holding a teacup, her heart pounding wildly.
My mind is in turmoil, filled with all sorts of wild thoughts.
He couldn't have been trying to kiss her just now, could he?
Her ears had turned bright red without her noticing, and Mingdai's face was burning hot.
Where is the sense of proportion and boundaries we were promised?
But she didn't do anything wrong just now, she was just returning a favor. She's always been very proper, okay?
He Yaonian placed the teapot in front of her, raising his chin with an air of superiority. "Drink."
Mingdai: "..."
It wasn't that I really wanted to drink it; it was just to ease the awkwardness.
"cough."
