He raised his head and took a glance at Lu Weixi, who was enjoying her meal across the table. A blurred memory of him calling her by her nickname “Xixi” when he was drunk emerged. Frowning, his hand wavered, and the porridge in his spoon flowed out instantly.
Lu Weixi saw this and was quite surprised. Though Qin Zhiyou behaved ruthlessly, all his actions displayed the demeanor of a gentleman. Such unbecoming behavior was rare.
It was probably because the work reported by Secretary Wang was challenging. She had casually overheard that Qin Zhiyou seemed to be interested in a plot of land in the northern suburbs of Yan City. He intended to acquire it for building a vacation resort. However, his uncle and aunt steadfastly objected, leading to a hidden, ongoing power struggle.
Across the table, Qin Zhiyou lowered his head, carefully wiping his spoon with a tissue like an ancient swordsman cleaning his precious sword. Auntie Hao came over to help him tidy up the spilled porridge. After a round of cleaning up and serving the meal again, Qin Zhiyou ate even more slowly this time.
Lu Weixi was extremely anxious, but knowing Qin Zhiyou’s personality, she dared not rush him. She could only wait for him to slowly and elegantly finish his meal, wipe the corner of his mouth with a tissue, and rinse his mouth with tea. After he finally finished tidying up, he turned around to go upstairs, but this time, he returned quickly with a document from the study.
Lu Weixi waited anxiously. When Qin Zhiyou came downstairs, he didn’t say a word or glance at her. He went straight towards his car. Lu Weixi quickly followed. Just when she thought he was going to drive away, he stopped by the car and began to convey his thoughts about his just-completed work to Secretary Wang.
Lu Weixi was on the verge of going mad. Couldn’t he wait until they were in the car before speaking? She checked the time—it was already 8:45. If they didn’t leave now, she would miss her 10 o’clock meeting. She might as well call a cab. However, the West Mountain villas were inhabited by either the rich or the noble who each had private cars. There was no way a cab would come this way on the ride-hailing app.
Just when she was on the brink of collapse, Qin Zhiyou finally finished talking and bent over to get into the car. Lu Weixi heaved a sigh of relief and followed. Seeing her get in, Qin Zhiyou pursed his lips, furrowing his brows. She recognized that expression: “Why are you getting in?”
Secretary Wang came to her rescue: “Young Madam helped to bring you home after you were drunk yesterday and left the car at the office.”
Qin Zhiyou let out a grunt in reply, no longer speaking, and started looking at the documents beside him. In the same fashion, Lu Weixi began preparing her meeting documents as well; upon reaching the office, she would have to dive straight into the meeting, so she needed to sort out her materials right away. Occupied with their respective tasks, they were quiet and left each other alone. During the ride, Qin Zhiyou sneaked a glance at her from the corner of his eye. Her long eyelashes were slightly lowered, and her red lips moved as if she was silently reading the information on her documents. Judging from her calm demeanor, he thought, she probably didn’t know he had called her by her nickname last night.
If they were headed to her office, they might run into her colleagues or clients. While he was perplexed by the situation, Secretary Wang at the front called out, “Young Madam, we’re almost there.”
Qin Zhiyou immediately straightened up, pretending as if nothing had happened.
“Stop here.” A block away from the office, Lu Weixi asked Secretary Wang to halt the car.. As she opened the door to step out, she suddenly remembered something, “Oh, about the *pill…”
