Ming Siran's eyes were deep, and after two seconds, he hummed in agreement.
……
At 10 pm, they left the club.
Ming Siran drove back to the villa. Luo Qiao wasn't there, and the house was pitch black.
He opened the door, but before he could turn on the light, Luo Qiao's Golden Retriever came up to him and wagged its tail.
Ming Siran rubbed its head, turned on the light, and caught a glimpse of the Ragdoll cat lying on the living room sofa.
When it saw the person, it raised its head and meowed softly.
There was a bouquet of fresh flowers in the vase, and on the table were some small accessories that Luo Qiao had casually left on the table. Even though she wasn't around, the whole place was filled with the warm and fragrant scent of life.
Ming Siran slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.
He leaned back, the corners of his lips slightly curved, and his eyes were filled with warmth.
Life was like flowing water, but it made people feel peaceful and happy.
……
The next afternoon, Luo Qiao left the beauty salon and drove to Ming Siran's office. She was going to accompany him to get off work and have dinner together.
She had changed to a new hairstyle. Her long hair was slightly curled, which made her look more amorous. She was wearing a beautiful red dress and her skin was cold and white. She was so beautiful that she was practically glowing.
She pursed her red lips in front of the mirror and hummed a nice song as she drove along the road.
He was in an extremely good mood.
At the same time, Ming Siran had just returned to his office after a meeting when his Secretary knocked on the door and reported, " "President Ming, a Mr. Huo wants to see you. He doesn't have an appointment. Do you want to see him?"
Ming Siran paused for a moment and looked up. "Huo?"
yes. He said he's the boss of Shengtai group and wants to talk to you.
Sheng Tai.
Ming Siran's eyes narrowed, and his voice deepened. "Invite him in,"
"Okay," the Secretary replied with a lowered head.
Not long after, footsteps could be heard from outside the door.
The Secretary walked in front and opened the door. She looked at Ming Siran, who was sitting behind his desk, and said, " "President Ming, he's here."
Ming Siran raised his eyes.
A Slender Man walked out from behind the Secretary. His black leather shoes stepped on the ground, and his pace was neither fast nor slow. He was wearing a high-end custom-made suit without a tie, and his whole body presented an elegant and comfortable posture.
The moment he walked in, Ming Siran's eyes met his. A few seconds later, the man's lips seemed to curl up. He looked at Ming Siran and slowly said, " "President Ming, I've long heard of your name."
……
The distance from the beauty salon to Ming Siran's office wasn't too far. After 20 minutes, Luo Qiao got off the car at the entrance of the building.
She closed the car door and walked into the company.
"Hello, miss Luo." The receptionist quickly stood up when she saw her.
Luo Qiao nodded at her and walked towards the elevator.
Pressing the button for her floor, Luo Qiao walked in and took out her phone. She casually replied to her friend's WeChat message.
The elevator made a soft sound and reached the floor where Ming Siran's office was located. Luo Qiao glanced at the elevator and walked out.
Given Luo Qiao's relationship with Ming Siran, no one would stop her. She threw her phone into her bag and strode over to the office. As she knocked on the door, she pushed it open and said, " Siran, I found a new restaurant. Let's go eat some steamed buns tonight.
Before he could finish, he stopped when he saw another person in the office.
A man was sitting on the sofa with his back facing her.
Luo Qiao's eyes widened slightly and she said, " "I'm sorry, I didn't know there was a client here."
As she said that, she prepared to close the door and leave.
"It's alright, I'm done." Ming Siran put the pen in his hand back into the holder. As he stood up, he glanced at the man and said in a cold voice, " "President Huo and I don't share the same ideals. There's nothing to talk about, so I won't keep you any longer."
Since Ming Siran had said so, Luo Qiao walked in directly. She looked at him with a smile in her eyes. Ming Siran's cold face softened and he walked towards her.
At this moment, the man on the sofa moved.
it's a pity. I wanted to work with President Ming, " the man said in a gentle voice. He was not in a hurry, and even the end of his voice seemed to have a soft lingering charm.
Luo Qiao's footsteps came to a sudden halt, her entire body frozen on the spot!
It was as if she had been frozen in place, and her mind was buzzing.
"Is this President Ming's girlfriend?" She could feel the man's gaze on her, his eyes sweeping across her face inch by inch. His voice was like a slippery snake drilling into her ears as he said word by word, " "It's so beautiful."
Luo Qiao slowly turned her head around and her eyes met a pair of smiling eyes.
He looked at her with an indescribable look in his eyes. Then, he reached out his hand to her and said slowly, " "My surname is Huo, Huo Nanchuan,"
In the eyes of outsiders, whether it was his voice or his appearance, this man gave people a perfect feeling, gentle and elegant.
Luo Qiao's gaze shifted down to his hand.
The man's fingers were slender and well-defined. When she looked at them, she seemed to feel the appropriate warmth.
Luo Qiao stared at his hand, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Huo Nanchuan seemed to be surprised by her silence. He smiled and took a step closer to her. "Hello," he said.
As he approached, that nerve-stimulating aura seemed to press down on him.
Luo Qiao's eyelashes trembled. She was about to react when a sudden force from behind pulled her towards him.
Ming Siran's hands were strong and warm, and his chest was firm. He pulled her into his arms, and the clean and pleasant scent of his body soothed all her uncontrollable emotions in an instant.
He looked down at her and seemed to say something to her. Luo Qiao didn't hear him clearly, but it didn't matter. His strong and gentle posture had long made her feel that she had enough support.
Luo Qiao's tense back relaxed and her rationality slowly returned to her.
"President Huo, I'll take my leave," he said, raising his eyes.
Huo Nanchuan's gaze fell on Ming Siran's arm around Luo Qiao's waist, and his eyes stopped there for a few seconds.
His eyes darkened.
"It seems that President Ming's girlfriend is very shy." Huo Nanchuan retracted his gaze slowly and looked at Ming Siran again. The corners of his lips curled up."I won't disturb the two of you any longer."
Ming Siran looked him in the eye and frowned, but did not say anything.
Huo Nanchuan turned around and walked out of the room. The moment he stepped out of the door, he turned around.
The woman behind him gradually calmed down. She was full of trust and dependence on the man in front of her. She did not break down and fear as she had expected.
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze slightly cold. He lifted his legs and walked out.
……
In the office, Ming Siran's gaze shifted from the direction the man had left to Luo Qiao.
He was about to let go of her when he noticed her slightly trembling shoulders. He paused."Qiaoqiao? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
The knuckles of Luo Qiao's fingers that were gripping his clothes had turned white. When she looked up again, she shook her head."I'm fine."
Her lips moved and she slowly said, " "Hey, who was that man just now?"
"You mean Huo Nanchuan?" "He's the new boss of Shengtai group," Ming Siran said.
Shengtai group:
Luo Qiao pursed her lips and committed the words to memory.
Ming Siran looked at Luo Qiao and his brows furrowed. His eyes were probing and he was about to ask something when Luo Qiao suddenly said, " Siran, I found a new restaurant, let's go eat tonight.
Ming Siran looked at her expression, and after a moment, he grunted in agreement.
Throughout the meal, Luo Qiao was a little distracted.
Ming Siran sat opposite her and took in her expression.
