Chapter 14: Sneaking a Peek

  Volume 1 Chapter 14 Peeping

  "Alright, I'll wait for you outside." Zhang Yisu smiled and left through another exit, although he was a bit puzzled by Bai Shuang's overreaction to Qiao Qi.

  Bai Xiaofan was still looking at Qiao Chuan. The twinkling lights reflected on the glass and shone onto her face, causing her to frown slightly. Then, Bai Xiaofan took a slight step forward, his tall and straight figure perfectly blocking out the dazzling light.

  Qiao's eyebrows gradually relaxed.

  Time passed minute by minute, second by second. Bai Xiaofan didn't leave and Qiao Cai didn't wake up. The surroundings were quiet as if there were only the two of them.

  But it was getting late, and Bai Xiaofan still had an important gathering to rush to, so he directly raised his hand and lightly knocked on the glass a few times to wake up Qiao Qi, who was sleeping like a pig.

  The sound of 'ding ding ding' woke up Qiao Sai, who was squatting at the corner of the revolving door. He opened his sour eyes and couldn't see clearly who was outside, so he quickly picked up his bag and made way by pushing the door open.

  "Sorry... I was just waiting for someone and accidentally fell asleep..."

  Qiao Cui hastily lowered her head to admit her mistake, and her urgent explanation was interrupted by Bai Xiaofan's cold voice. "Why are you still in the company? Isn't it already off-work hours?"

  At the sound of this voice, Qiao Cai's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly raised her head to meet a cold, handsome face with no mental preparation!

  At this moment, she just wants to knock herself dead on the white tofu!

  The person who woke her up was actually Bai Xiaofan! Then didn't he see the awkward way she had just fallen asleep in the doorway?

  How long has he been here?

  He let out a deep sigh and looked down, too embarrassed to face Bai Xiaofan. "I've been asked to stay behind for overtime," he said weakly.

  "Are you alone?" Bai Xiaofan raised an eyebrow and asked, his black eyes scanning Qiao Qi's attire that didn't match the summer season, flashing with suspicion.

  "Ah, just me." Qiao Qi replied in a soft and weak tone, as if she was getting more and more used to being a timid little wife in front of Bai Xiaofan.

  For some reason, Qiao Chuan seemed to hear Bai Xiaofan laugh, a faint and inaudible smile, like a candle quietly extinguished in the gentle breeze, silently disappearing, leaving only a wisp of clear smoke.

  But when she lifted her head, the other person still had a cool expression, where was the trace of a smile?

  Qiao Cui glanced at Bai Xiaofan with a tilted head, but when she saw that he was also looking at her, she didn't dare to be presumptuous again and lowered her head, twisting her slender fingers like a middle school student waiting for the teacher to dismiss class.

  "Are you afraid of me?" Bai Xiaofan asked calmly, but inexplicably tinged with a layer of dark coldness.

  Qiao Tai shook his head vigorously and said that he wasn't afraid, but simply didn't want to get entangled with him.

  "Qiao Xi!"

  Shang Jing is here!

  As soon as she saw Shang Jing, Qiao Cai was like seeing a lifesaving lucky star, her small face blooming with a shy smile, which was extremely sweet.

  "President, you're here too?" Shang Jing hurried over, she had originally planned to have dinner with Qiao Tai, but why was Qiao Tai with the new president again?

  Bai Xiao Fan withdrew his gaze, ignored Shang Jing, and turned around to leave.

  Shang Jing watched as Bai Xiao Fan got on the car and left, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Was he just stealing glances at Qiao Tai?
