A saddened vice shrouded all around Han Yifeng. His expression seemed worn out and lonely as the sharp eyes he used to have were now dull and dark.
It was obvious that he was not doing well right now.
Xi Xiaye lost interest in continuing this conversation, so she turned around and left.
Han Yifeng raised his head and just looked at her retreating back. He wanted to catch up with her, but as he took his first step, he stopped.
What else could he say even if he went up to her?
He had nothing else left to say…
…
It was 5 p.m. when she left Yueying.
The sun was setting in the west and the orange light warmed the whole of City Z, giving everything a cozy vibe.
The breeze was not very strong, and it still felt a little warm walking under the sunset as Xi Xiaye walked slowly towards her car.
As she was about to get inside her car, a faint fragrance came near, and before she could react, a big bouquet of bright red roses appeared before her eyes.
She tensed up and quickly looked at who it was. Unexpectedly, Qi Lei’s face was right before hers.
“This is for you.” Qi Lei grinned. “This is the first time I’m giving a woman flowers. Xiaye, you’d accept it for my sake, won’t you?”
Xi Xiaye glanced at him as she narrowed her eyes.
Back in the office just now, Qi Lei’s reaction had been really odd. He was quiet most of the time but would voice out his agreement whenever she made any suggestions. His attitude made Xi Xiaye wary of him.
She put her briefcase into the car before turning around to face Qi Lei. “There must be something you want for you to do this, Vice President Qi. I feel that you’re quite a dangerous person.”
Qi Lei guffawed, his eyes smiling as he threw Xi Xiaye a meaningful glance. “Do I really look like a bad person? What if I say I’ve taken a liking to you for quite some time? Can you accept my flowers? Let’s be friends.”
“No.”
“Ah, what a heartless woman! I tried so hard to support you in the meeting and even gave you my first time of flower gifting, but this is how you repay me?” Qi Lei smiled wryly.
Xi Xiaye squinted her eyes at him. As she was about to get inside her car, Qi Lei grabbed her wrist and tucked the bouquet of flowers in her arms. “No woman can ever reject anything that I give!”
“You…”
He was so forceful that Xi Xiaye stumbled into the driver’s seat. Her face clouded over when she looked at the bouquet of flowers. Standing back up, she grabbed the bouquet and threw it back at the man outside. “Who do you think you are that I have to accept whatever you give? Don’t you know that I only take roses made of gold?”
The bouquet of roses smacked Qi Lei directly.
Qi Lei took the flowers she tossed at him, not seeming to be angry. Instead, he looked at her in surprise. “So, you have the same hobby as me? I’m noticing more and more similarities between us…”
“Vice President Qi, I’m going to be straightforward with you. I don’t care what happened between you and Mu Yuchen. I hope that you don’t come near me again. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what’s going to happen to you.” Xi Xiaye’s face and voice turned cold. “Moreover, I have a family. I believe you’re a cultured person. At least, you won’t be giving other people trouble, will you?”
“I really don’t like you. No matter which angle I look at you, you look just like a pervert!” Xi Xiaye enunciated the last few words angrily before sitting back into the car and starting it.
Qi Lei was not sore at all. He flung the bouquet of flowers away and just watched Xi Xiaye’s car drive away as he folded his arms.
“Are you close to Xi Xiaye?” A voice came from behind him. Qi Lei turned around and noticed Han Yifeng standing behind him.
“What do you think?” Qi Lei laughed.
Han Yifeng had seen him throwing the bouquet of roses away. He gave it some thought before looking at Qi Lei. “Do you like her?”
“She’s beautiful and pretty amazing, isn’t she?” Qi Lei shrugged as he gave Han Yifeng a smiling glance. “My taste is different from yours. She suits me well. Can’t I like her?”
“She’s already married to Mu Yuchen!” Han Yifeng pointed out coldly with a frown.
“Mu Yuchen… One can still get divorced after marriage. I’m not like you. I’m a person who’s brave enough to pursue true love. Moreover, the Xi family initially thought of making her marry me. In a way, Mu Yuchen’s the one that snatched my woman away, so why can’t I take her back!?” Qi Lei smirked before turning around and going toward his car.
Han Yifeng remained silent as his expression changed.
Qi Lei’s words reminded him of what had happened at West Park the other day…
…
Outrageous!
Xi Xiaye was scowling as she drove along the highway.
Of course, she did not take what Qi Lei said seriously!
She suddenly felt like she was on the verge of a vortex, and would get sucked right in if she was not careful. At the same time, she was worried about Mu Yuchen. She wondered if he was aware of the odd things happening.
Should she tell him about her concerns?
After giving it some thought, she stopped her car on the side and took her phone out to swiftly dial a number.
The call was connected very quickly.
“Ms. Xiaye?” It was a very familiar voice.
“Mmm, it’s me, Inspector Zhang. I have something to trouble you about… Can you meet me now?” Xi Xiaye asked.
“Right now?” Inspector Zhang responded.
Xi Xiaye nodded. “Yeah, right now. It’s just past working hours. Let’s meet at the Bamboo Teahouse. I’ll wait for you there.”
“Sure, I’ll head over now,” Inspector Zhang answered quickly and then hung up.
Xi Xiaye turned around and headed towards the Bamboo Teahouse.
