Xia Xiaodie raised her eyes and looked at Tony and Ah A. Initially, she felt quite uncomfortable, but these two people made her laugh.
“No need.”Xia Xiaodie declined politely.
“Sister-in-law, this man must not be allowed to make mistakes. Moreover, our boss is definitely a good seedling. He is a legitimate seedling.”
Xia Xiaodie curled her red lips. “What I mean is… I have my own ways to punish him.”
Tony and ah a quickly revealed gossipy expressions. “Sister-in-law…”
Xia Xiaodie immediately interrupted them. “Let’s Get to work quickly. According to your request, I’ve already finished modifying this database. Take a look.”
Tony and Ah A played and enjoyed themselves, but work was the most important thing. They quickly returned to the main topic and seriously immersed themselves in their work.
..
In the middle of the night, the door to the Presidential Suite opened. Gu Yilin had returned.
“Boss, you’re back?”
Tony and ah a quickly put down the documents in their hands and went up to greet him.
Gu Yilin had drunk quite a lot, and there was a faint smell of wine on his body. However, his deep, narrow eyes were still relatively clear, and there was not much drunkenness to be seen.
He strode his long legs and sat on the sofa. He lifted his slender fingers and unbuttoned a shirt. He lifted his thin lips and said, “There are still people here?”
There were only Tony, ah a, and Xia Xiaodie here. Now that Tony and Ah A were here, only Xia Xiaodie was not, so Gu Yilin was very clear about who he was asking about.
“Boss, sister-in-law has already returned to her room.”
“Sister-in-law is indeed a genius girl. According to our request, sister-in-law has made adjustments to the database. Don’t make this database too beautiful!”
Tony and Ah A were full of praise and admiration.
Gu Yilin’s handsome face did not have much expression. He stood up and was about to leave.
“Boss, where are you going? Why did you go to the Bar to play tonight? There are beautiful women around you, and most importantly, you were caught by sister-in-law.”
“Boss, let me tell you. This time, sister-in-law is definitely not easy to coax. Just now, sister-in-law has already spoken. She has a way to punish you properly, so that you won’t dare to go to the brothel again. So you’d better avoid the limelight!”
Gu Yilin was about to leave, but when he heard this, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
She… said that?
Gu Yilin lowered his handsome eyelids, and a faint curve formed on the edge of his thin lips.
..
In the corridor, Gu Yilin came to the door of Xia Xiaodie’s room. He raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.
No one opened the door.
“Knock, Knock, Knock.”Gu Yilin began to knock on the door. His strong joints knocked on the door with a sharp and urgent sound.
Still, no one opened the door for him.
He knew she was inside.
“Xia Xiaodie, open the door!”Gu Yilin said.
In the room, Xia Xiaodie had not fallen asleep. The first thing she heard was the knocking on the door. Her heart skipped a beat, and her breathing tightened.
Almost in an instant, she knew who was knocking on her room door.
It was Gu Yilin.
He had returned from the bar.
However, so be it. It was already the middle of the night. Why was he knocking on her door so arrogantly?
Xia Xiaodie lifted the quilt and got off the bed. She was wearing a pink nightdress with a sling. She took a black silk scarf with tassels and wrapped it around her pink neck. She casually put it on her fragrant shoulders. Then, she walked to the door and said, “You wanted to see me?”
There was no sound outside.
“It’s already very late. President Gu, come back tomorrow to discuss business.”
Gu Yilin’s deep and magnetic voice came from outside. “Xia Xiaodie, my patience is limited. Open the door. Otherwise, I have a hundred ways to get in.”
”…”
Xia Xiaodie placed her small hand on the doorknob and opened the door.
Gu Yilin stood tall and straight in front of her door. The palace lights on the corridor came from behind him like a layer of gold.
Xia Xiaodie raised her beautiful face and looked at him, “Master Gu, what urgent matter do you have to tell me now?”
Gu Yilin took a step and went straight into her room.
Xia Xiaodie wanted to close the door and not let him in, but the man was fast and agile, so she could only watch him come in.
Gu Yilin went to the sofa and sat down. His long, proud legs lazily rested on the coffee table in front of him. He ordered in a low voice, “My head hurts. Come here and give me a massage.”
Xia Xiaodie walked over. She was more sensitive to smells, so she could naturally smell the smell of alcohol on his body and the perfume on the woman’s body.
She frowned slightly, but did not move.
Gu Yilin opened his eyes and looked at her. The room was lit up with dim yellow lights. The young girl’s fair skin was like egg white that had just been peeled. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, her black eyes were bright, and her red lips were delicate, the touch of these colors made her look lively and fragrant.
Gu Yilin was also a straight man with a taste for beauty. He never denied that he really liked Xia Xiaodie’s looks.
“Why? Don’t you understand what I’m saying?”
Xia Xiaodie looked at him. “Master Gu, you barged into my room in the middle of the night. This should already be considered harassment. If this gets out, I’m afraid it will have a great impact on your reputation.”
Gu Yilin raised his dashing eyebrows in amusement. His half-drunk state made him look willful and bewitching. “What impact could it have? Men are unmarried, women are unmarried.”
Xia Xiaodie curled her slender white fingers, “Let president gu rest in this room. I’ll go out.”
Xia Xiaodie turned around and left.
Seeing her beautiful figure getting further and further away, Gu Yilin’s deep narrow eyes suddenly narrowed. He got up and chased after her with quick steps.
His big hand grabbed her slender wrist and then pulled hard. Xia Xiaodie was forced to turn around. Before she could react, Gu Yilin pushed her against the wall again.
“Gu Yilin, what are you doing? Let Go of me!”Xia Xiaodie struggled hard.
Gu Yilin held her in his arms domineeringly. He slowly curled his thin lips. “You kept calling me president gu just now, but now you know how to call me gu Yilin.”
His hand fell on her slender waist and hugged her. “You woman, I really want to rip out your heart and see why you’re so cruel to me!”
Xia Xiaodie saw how he was gnashing his teeth. She was clearly feeling anxious, but the way he looked at her with such concentration, there was still some… helpless love in his eyes.
Xia Xiaodie’s heart ached. Her two small hands pressed against him, trying to push him away. “Gu Yilin, you’re drunk. Don’t use alcohol to commit murder!”
Gu Yilin saw how she was struggling and was anxious to get rid of him. His eyes darkened and he whispered into her ear, “Since you’ve Said So, I definitely won’t let you down.”
..
A series of melodious ringtones rang in the room. Xia Xiaodie’s phone rang.
Xia Xiaodie reached out for her phone. It was a call from the hospital.
She quickly answered the call. “Hello.”
“Miss Xia, come to the hospital quickly. Your Mother has a heart attack and is undergoing surgery. Her condition isn’t looking good.”
Xia Xiaodie’s palm-sized face suddenly turned pale. “Okay, I’ll rush over now.”
Xia Xiaodie got off the bed and changed her clothes. At this moment, the bathroom door opened and Gu Yilin walked over with a warm towel in his hand.
The alcohol smell on his body had dissipated a lot and his eyes were clear and bright. He was still wearing that black shirt and black trousers. He did not have time to take a shower and his clothes were already wrinkled, but for a man like him.., it only added to the texture of a mature man.
Gu Yilin looked at her. “Why are you out of bed? It’s so late, you’re going out. What Happened?”
Xia Xiaodie ignored him and went out directly.
Gu Yilin threw down the towel in his hand and chased after her. Then, he stretched out his strong arm and hugged her from behind. “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Don’t be angry.”
Gu Yilin probably did not expect himself, the proud son of heaven, to be so humble and coax a girl in his life.
Moreover, it was not that he was not angry about what she had done previously.
Xia Xiaodie wanted to push him away. “Let go of me. I’m going to the hospital now. My mother is in the hospital.”
What?
Gu Yilin quickly held her cold little hand in his palm and brought her out of the door. “I’ll go with you.”
Xia Xiaodie wanted to shake off his big hand. She did not need him to go with her, but he held her very tightly. She looked up at the man’s straight shoulders and the warmth of his warm palm that was slowly spreading to her cold skin. Her heart.., slowly softened..
..
In the hospital.
The red light in the operating room was still on. The surgery inside was not over yet.
Mother Xia’s health had always been poor. All these years, she had been like a medicine pot. Now that her heart was getting worse, the doctors said that mother Xia did not have much time left.
Xia Xiaodie loved her mother very much. In this world, her mother was her only family. If her mother was not around, then she would be an orphan.
No matter how big the world was, she did not have a home anymore.
Every time her mother fell ill, every time she was hospitalized, every surgery, Xia Xiaodie was very scared.
At this moment, the operating room door opened, and a nurse in a white coat came out.
Xia Xiaodie quickly ran over. “May I ask how my mother is doing? is the surgery going well?”
“Miss Xia, the surgery is still ongoing. There’s no danger for the time being.”
After saying that, the nurse went back in.
Xia Xiaodie sat on the cold bench in the corridor. At this moment, her shoulders felt warm and a black coat draped over her shoulders.
Xia Xiaodie looked up and saw Gu Yilin standing tall and straight in front of her.
Gu Yilin sat beside her, and then stretched out his long arm to hug her smooth shoulders, letting her lean against his muscular chest. “It’s very late. Sleep for a while, I’ll watch over you.”
Xia Xiaodie’s cold little face pressed against his heart, where his strong and powerful heartbeat beat, one after another.
It inexplicably made people feel at ease, making them want to rely on it.
Xia Xiaodie gently closed her eyes.
In fact, she had gotten used to it all these years. She was used to being alone. She could solve all her problems by herself, but she could not be comforted and hugged because her grievances would be magnified, she would become soft and weak and then want to rely on her.
After all, she was only a 19-year-old girl.
Gu Yilin looked sideways and kissed her fragrant long hair. He said in a low voice, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
