Chapter 167: Chapter 168: Relatives Arrive (10)
Qin Mobai basically doesn’t eat sweets, so when Lou Xi handed it over, he shook his head without thinking.
"You eat, I still have work to do."
"But such a big cake, I can’t eat it all by myself." Lou Xi looked at this twelve-inch cake, she really couldn’t finish it. "It would be such a waste."
"It’s not like we can’t afford to buy a cake."
"Hahaha, Young Master Qin, you admit this cake is bought for me!"
"..." Three lines floated across Qin Mobai’s forehead; the focus of his previous sentence wasn’t that, okay!
Qin Mobai really didn’t understand how Lou Xi’s mind worked; it seemed particularly quirky.
Seeing Qin Mobai’s expression darken, Lou Xi sensibly sat across from Qin Mobai, quietly eating the cake.
Thinking about it, her current situation is something others can’t even imagine: sitting in the CEO’s office of Jia Sheng Group, eating cake, watching this exceedingly handsome man do his work.
She’s got both food and a man, truly fantastic!
If there’s anything to be concerned about, it’s only one thing...
Lou Nan.
Whenever Lou Xi thought about Lou Nan’s situation, it particularly bothered her, she racked her brains but couldn’t think of anyone besides Qin Mobai who could help her get Lou Nan into Nancheng’s high school.
But she really doesn’t want to trouble Young Master Qin anymore.
If these issues were her own, then it’s no big deal to ask for his help.
But she didn’t want to trouble Young Master Qin herself, and then have her family go and trouble him too.
Young Master Qin is with her, not with her family.
If everything requires Young Master Qin’s help, then her relationship with him will ultimately be in a state of imbalance, which Lou Xi doesn’t like.
So, she’s not particularly willing to talk to Qin Mobai about Lou Nan’s matter.
But, at some point, Qin Mobai had already moved from sitting opposite her to the seat beside her; he gently turned Lou Xi’s chair towards himself.
Lou Xi snapped back to reality, somewhat confused as she looked at Qin Mobai, suddenly asking, "Young Master Qin, do you want to eat cake now?"
Because the two were close, Lou Xi could see her own reflection in Qin Mobai’s dark eyes.
He simply said, "Yeah, I want to eat."
But who was it that said earlier they didn’t want to eat? Young Master Qin is more fickle than a woman!
"Alright then, how much do you want?" Lou Xi turned to use the fork to get a slice of cake for Qin Mobai.
But as soon as she turned her head, Qin Mobai held her chin with one hand, forcing her to look at him.
Only after a long pause did Qin Mobai release Lou Xi’s chin, gently brushing her crimson lips, and said, "From now on, don’t eat cake in front of others."
"You’re so domineering!" Why can’t she eat cake in front of others?
"The cream on the corners of your mouth is meant for me to eat, hmm?" Qin Mobai’s words made Lou Xi’s heart flutter.
So that’s what he meant.
