143 Knowing The Truth of The Matter, The Misunderstanding Is Resolved!
“Miss Li!” Someone called out to her from behind!
Li Xiwu stopped short. If she heard correctly, this was Chen Xin’s voice? Chen Xin was also here? She took a breath and turned slowly.
At this moment, Chen Xin had just gotten out of the car. He was dressed in a formal suit, but the shirt in his jacket looked a little wrinkled. It should be because he was in a hurry to get out of the car.
Before the car door closed, Chen Xin looked at Li Xiwu, who was only a few steps away, and said, “Miss Li, wait a moment!” With that, Chen Xin reached into the car and took out a shoe box. Then, he walked towards Li Xiwu.
Li Xiwu’s tone was steady. “Why Assistant Chen come here?”
Chen Xin handed the shoe box in his hand to Li Xiwu. “Mr. Pei specially asked me to come over and give you boots.”
Li Xiwu raised an eyebrow. “Boots?”
Chen Xin nodded. “Yes. Mr. Pei knew that you were going to Mount Liang tomorrow. It was very cold there, and it would probably snow again soon, so he personally picked a pair of snow boots and asked me to send them to you.”
Pei Jingzhou actually found out so quickly that she was going to Mount Liang tomorrow.
Li Xiwu’s lips twitched. “That’s thoughtful of him.”
Chen Xin looked at Li Xiwu’s expression and deliberated before saying, “Mr. Pei is very busy today. He has been in a meeting since the afternoon. He only has time to go to the hospital to change the dressing on his wound at eight in the evening. Mr. Pei was still changing the dressing before I came over.”
Chen Xin said this because he wanted Li Xiwu to care more about Mr. Pei. But it seemed that… Miss Li’s motionless expression was indifferent to this.
Li Xiwu thought of the discordant voice she had just heard and sneered silently. Then, she reached out and took the shoe box. “Tell Mr. Pei for me. Thank you.”
Then she turned and went back.
Chen Xin was speechless.
Li Xiwu did not care if Pei Jingzhou was in the car just now or changing his dressing in the hospital. She just needed to be obedient and pretend not to hear anything even if she heard it. Only then would it be beneficial for her to obtain the 400 million yuan steadily.
On the way back, Li Xiwu hefted the shoe box. It was quite light. Casually, she opened the shoe box. She planned to carry the boots in and throw the shoe box in the trash can outside. Otherwise, the shoe box would take up space.
As soon as she opened it, she didn’t see any snow boots, but she saw a set of… adult supplies, and brand new black silk…
Li Xiwu stiffened. She closed her eyes hard and closed the shoe box, planning to throw it away. As soon as she raised her hand, she suddenly smiled. Wouldn’t it mean that she was jealous to throw it away?
Li Xiwu turned around and returned with the shoe box. Before she could approach the car, an untimely voice came sweetly—
“Brother~”
“Kiss me~”
Li Xiwu stopped short. During the time she had known Xue Jinzhu, she had clearly remembered the tone of her voice. Those few words just now were Xue Jinzhu’s voice. She was delicate and charming, enough to melt one’s bones. Not only was the voice clear, but she was also outside.
Li Xiwu looked up and saw Xue Jinzhu standing in the shadow of the car with a man leaning against it.
Xue Jinzhu wrapped her arms around the man’s neck, tiptoed, and raised her head to kiss the man’s chin. “Did Brother miss me? I brought black silk out just now~ Do you want to see it, Brother?”
Chen Xin lowered his head, his breathing unstable. “Where? Why didn’t I see it?”
Xue Jinzhu giggled. “It’s not easy to hide it on my body for too long. I hid it in a box and wanted to give Brother a surprise.”
Chen Xin asked, “A box. What box?”
Xue Jinzhu said, “It’s just a box with a pair of shoes. I took out the shoes and threw them aside. Other than black silk, there are other toys. Brother will definitely like them.”
Chen Xin held his breath. All the excitement and heat from before feel like cold water after Xue Jinzhu’s words!
Xue Jinzhu smiled charmingly. “Brother, are you looking forward to it?”
Without hearing Chen Xin’s answer, Xue Jinzhu wrapped her arms around Chen Xin’s neck and shook it gently. “Brother, it’s too cold outside. Let’s go into the car. I’ll wear it for you to see.”
Chen Xin suddenly asked, “You really put it in the shoe box.”
Xue Jinzhu nodded obediently. “Yes, I wanted to give you a surprise. I can’t hide it.”
Chen Xin asked, “Then why didn’t you say anything when I took the shoe box down to Miss Li just now?”
That wasn’t a harsh tone. He was just a little angry. Xue Jinzhu was unhappy when she heard that. She pouted angrily. “You kissed me until I was confused in the car just now. How would I know that you took a shoe box down?”
Speaking of just now…
After coming out of the inn, she got into the back seat. Chen Xin was still in front. She took advantage of the time when Chen Xin went to the back to stuff the ‘good stuff’ she had brought out into the shoe box in the back seat.
She’d even taken out the shoes, which she’d left under the seat. She thought that Chen Xin had brought her shoes. When Chen Xin picked up the shoe box and surprised her, she would turn this surprise into a surprise for Chen Xin.
As soon as she put it away, Chen Xin got into the backseat. Without another word, he pressed her down and kissed her. When she was dizzy from the kiss, Chen Xin suddenly paused. Then, he took something and hurriedly got out of the car.
She did not see what she had taken at all. She was still dizzy and regulating her breathing. When she adjusted her breathing and looked out of the car window, she saw Sister Li turn around and leave. She got out of the car and was about to ask Sister Li if she had specially come out to rush her back when Chen Xin pressed her outside the car door and kissed her.
Xue Jinzhu heard Chen Xin mutter, “It’s over.”
Xue Jinzhu was curious. “What’s over?”
Chen Xin pushed Xue Jinzhu away. “I have to get it back.”
Xue Jinzhu was confused. “Take what back?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly sounded—
“Are you getting this back?”
Li Xiwu’s sudden voice shocked Xue Jinzhu and Chen Xin. Xue Jinzhu was so frightened that she screamed, “Ahhhh—” After screaming, she quickly pressed her face into Chen Xin’s arms. “Brother, I’m so scared ~”
Chen Xin coaxed Xue Jinzhu, “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid.” He took the time to say to Li Xiwu, “Miss Li, I’m sorry to have embarrassed you.”
Li Xiwu: “…”
It wasn’t a matter of being embarrassed. This was a matter that she was also shocked by!
Chen Xin actually got together with… Xue Jinzhu?!!! What’s going on? No… when did this happen?
Chen Xin quickly pushed Xue Jinzhu away and reminded her to stay here. Then, he straightened his clothes and walked towards Li Xiwu. “Miss Li, that shoe box…”
With that, Chen Xin reached out to take it.
Li Xiwu raised her hand and avoided Chen Xin’s outstretched hand. “Aren’t these the shoes Mr. Pei chose for me?”
Chen Xin looked lifeless for a few seconds. Oh no, Miss Li had already opened it and looked at it! Chen Xin clapped his hands. “Miss Li, this is a misunderstanding. Give me this shoe box first. I can explain.”
Li Xiwu threw the shoe box to Chen Xin. “Explain yourself.”
Chen Xin took the shoe box and felt a little more at ease. He explained, “I’m sorry, Miss Li. I really shouldn’t have taken the opportunity to meet Xue Jinzhu in private when Mr. Pei arranged for me to send you shoes.”
Li Xiwu: “?”
