Xu Xudong really didn’t have the guts to make his boss listen to him and get out of the car.

As if reading Xu Xudong’s mind, Chi Shuyan reached in through the window and opened the car door for him to get out. Xu Xudong couldn’t wait to get out of the car at that moment, afraid that his insignificant self would suffer if the two of them quarreled.

Of course, given his boss’s character, he absolutely wouldn’t get into an argument, but a cold war was possible.

But he didn’t expect the frail-looking young lady to have such guts. Look at the way she spoke to the boss!

This young lady definitely wasn’t ordinary in the boss’s heart; it was just that she didn’t have a steady nature. Look, the boss had caught her in the act!

Seeing that Xu Xudong was silent and kept looking shakily at the man behind him for his opinion, Chi Shuyan pulled him out of the car without thinking. She was quite strong, so she pulled him out of the car and got in herself. She closed the car door and rolled up the window.

Before Chi Shuyan rolled up the window, she didn’t forget to politely say to the dazed Xu Xudong, “Assistant Xu, I’ll be taking some of your time. Have a cup of coffee across the street on me – I’ll settle the bill later. Sorry to trouble you!”

The reason Xu Xudong was in a daze at that moment was because he was shocked by his little lady boss’s strength. She had picked him up like he was a duck, without the slightest bit of effort. Did she have to be so strong?

When he heard his little lady boss’s words, Xu Xudong wished he could run away. He didn’t dare hang around when it had to do with his boss’s personal affairs, but if he wanted to flee, he still had to ask his boss, right?

Xu Xudong immediately looked nervously at his cold, sharp and imposing boss. Because he was too nervous, he stuttered, “B- Boss!”

Qi Zhenbai’s face remained unchanged and he only nodded. No one could guess at what he was feeling at all.

After Xu Xudong left, Chi Shuyan relaxed. She rolled up the window and turned to look at the tall man behind her.

At that moment, the atmosphere in the car was strange and dead silent. For a long while, she didn’t speak, and neither did the man. His thin lips were pursed tightly, and his face grew colder and colder.

Chi Shuyan, on the other hand, was deliberating over how to explain the matter. She didn’t want to have more and more misunderstandings with this man. If there was any misunderstanding, she should immediately clear it up. Why hide it the whole time?

At the same time, she made up her mind to explain the matter of marrying into her family. She had been in a cold war with this man for the past two days. No, it couldn’t even be considered a cold war. She was very unhappy with how this man ignored her.

Finally, she said, “What you saw just now was a misunderstanding. The other party is Brother Feng’s cousin. Yang Lan took a fancy to him, and invited me to have a meal with them. I came because it was in a group. As for what happened just now, I really didn’t know…” That would happen.

Chi Shuyan wanted to explain herself, but the man in front of her didn’t give her a chance to finish at all. He raised his eyebrows indifferently and interrupted her coldly. “You don’t have to tell me this!”

Chi Shuyan: …

Chi Shuyan didn’t give up. She gritted her teeth and said, “Okay, then let’s talk about something else. For example, the matter about marrying into my family last time. I know what I said before disappointed you. I’m sorry. That’s not really what I think. I owe you an apology!”

After Chi Shuyan apologized, she didn’t dare look up at the man’s face. She gritted her teeth and said, “Qi Zhenbai, can we make up? I was wrong!”

Chi Shuyan gritted her teeth and finished speaking. When she didn’t hear a reply from the man for a long time, she plucked up the courage to look at him. She couldn’t help but panic and feel cold in her heart.

She originally still wanted to say, Can we stop arguing? I’ve been feeling terribly lately after arguing with you. As long as he wasn’t angry, she would do anything.

However, she swallowed her words under the man’s cold and indifferent gaze. At the same time, she couldn’t help but think of his gaze when he broke up with her that night.

It had also been this cold, unfeeling gaze.

Her heart inexplicably turned cold.

Before this, she had thought that he probably didn’t really want to break up with her and that there was still room for reconciliation. It was impossible for this man to break up with her. However, in front of this man’s cold gaze, she suddenly felt that perhaps it was true that he had broken up with her that night.

Thinking about how this man hadn’t come back for the past few days, perhaps it wasn’t because he was busy at all, but because he wanted to avoid her and didn’t want to see her at all.

Chi Shuyan’s head buzzed and her face turned a bit white, but she still harbored hope and unwillingness in her heart. She gritted her teeth and stared fixedly at the stoic man in the backseat, who hadn’t said a word from beginning to end. She said, “Zhenbai, can we make up?” Her tone even carried a hint of pleading.

When Qi Zhenbai heard this, his face changed drastically and his eyes were a bit moved. It was a very complicated and fleeting expression, but he seemed to think of something, and quickly regained his composure.

The man said casually, “Anything else?”

Chi Shuyan’s face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and asked, “You… you really want to break up with me?”

“Mm!”
