Chapter 262: Chapter 262 I’m Very Focused, I Only Like Beauties

This wasn’t the first time he had asked this question.

Yet Qiao Xi still found herself blushing red.

She hastily picked up a bowl of soup to drink, hiding the turmoil inside her heart.

How could he ask such a question in broad daylight, with such seriousness?

It left her not knowing how to answer.

"Do you like it or not?" His patience was excellent as he leaned in and asked again.

The hot breath nearly touched her earlobe, and the brief electrifying sensation filled Qiao Xi’s mind with many inappropriate images.

Every night they were truly indulgent, utterly absurd.

With misty eyes, Qiao Xi lowered her head and dodged the question, "What does it matter if I like it? What if I don’t?"

"If you like it, continue riding, if not, you still have to ride. You can’t get off this horseback."

So domineering!

Qiao Xi’s breath hitched, and she bit her lip. She could feel his kiss landing on her neck, intense and entwining, while his strong hand familiarly wrapped around her slender waist, neither too forceful nor too light.

It was like a wildfire spreading uncontrollably.

Qiao Xi tried hard to control the tremor in her voice as she said, "Mr. Huo, this is... the office. I heard... you’ve been very busy lately. This afternoon..."

Huo Xingzhou’s thin lips silenced her words with a fierce kiss.

It took a while before he let her go.

His voice hoarse, he said, "We’ll ride tonight."

Qiao Xi hurriedly straightened her clothes and nodded haphazardly.

Standing up, Qiao Xi said, "I’ll take a look around the company first and wait for you to get off work so we can go back together."

Her cheeks were rosy, her eyes brimming with a spring mood, yet she seemed green and at a loss.

Huo Xingzhou magnanimously said, "Go ahead."

With permission granted, Qiao Xi opened the office door and quickly walked out. She pressed her burning cheeks with both hands, taking a while to cool down.

Mr. Huo was too good at stirring up emotions.

"Sister-in-law!"

Zhou Yu appeared out of nowhere, smiling at her, "Why aren’t you staying in the office?"

Qiao Xi said, "I... just walking around. I haven’t really explored the Tianyuan Building before."

"Let me be your guide."

"Oh, okay."

Qiao Xi didn’t refuse Zhou Yu’s offer, feeling more at ease with a familiar face around.

Besides, she always felt there was something off about Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu held a high position within Tianyuan Group, and employees greeted him wherever he went. Their curious eyes then turned to Qiao Xi.

Zhou Yu would help introduce her, "This is President Huo’s wife, the lady boss of Tianyuan Group."

It didn’t take long for the news that the lady boss was inspecting Tianyuan Group to spread throughout the building.

"Hello, Lady Boss."

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, hello, Lady Boss."

Qiao Xi was embarrassed by their salutations.

Zhou Yu said with a smile, "There’s a tea room over there, let’s sit there first. The tea room has a collection of various types of tea and always provides refreshments. Employees sometimes come here to relax during their break."

"Okay."

Qiao Xi followed him into the tea room.

It was very quiet inside, and the seats were separated by screens.

The air was filled with the faint aroma of tea, refreshing and pleasant.

Zhou Yu picked a seat by the floor-to-ceiling window where sunlight poured in, offering a view of the bustling street outside.

He poured a cup of tea for Qiao Xi and said, "Try this, it’s Lu’an Melon Seed tea, very suitable for girls. Though personally, I prefer Yashixiang Tea."

Qiao Xi didn’t know much about tea, but she found the name Yashixiang Tea quite intriguing.

Just as intriguing as Zhou Yu himself.

Qiao Xi commented, "So you like tea? I thought you were more into coffee or alcohol."

"I like them all, I don’t have a particular hobby that I stick to."

"Where is that person?" Qiao Xi wanted to test his attitude towards Shu Xue.

Zhou Yu and Shu Xue still didn’t know that she and Mr. Huo had already found out about their relationship.

The two were sneaky, trying to avoid her.

Little did they know, she had already seen them.

"Person? I’m quite devoted," Zhou Yu said openly, "I’m devoted to beautiful women."

Shu Xue indeed looked attractive and had style.

Qiao Xi hesitated and then said, "I heard... Mr. Huo say that you are a marriage skeptic, right? I originally wanted to introduce a friend to you, but now it seems I shouldn’t harm them."

Zhou Yu’s eyes were deep, and his smile made him look more handsome: "Is it that friend who works at the hospital? Did I see her at the restaurant just now on a blind date?"

He was pretending!

Pretending not to be close with Shu Xue.

Qiao Xi didn’t expose him: "Yes, what do you think of her?"

Zhou Yu, sipping his tea, replied: "I don’t know much about her. Did her blind date go well? She seemed quite happy in the restaurant, so I suppose she is satisfied?"

A hint of annoyance arose in Qiao Xi’s heart; men were all so insincere.

She wanted to provoke him for Shu Xue’s sake.

She said, "It went quite smoothly. The blind date is young and promising, with good conditions. I heard from Shu Xue that her parents are very satisfied. They are watching a movie this afternoon."

She shook her phone, and the screen displayed Shu Xue’s Moments.

Shu Xue had posted a photo of movie tickets with the caption: "A delightful day."

Zhou Yu almost let out a cold laugh but restrained himself and said, "It seems she is really satisfied, then congratulations to her."

"We are good friends," Qiao Xi smiled innocently, "when she gets married, Mr. Huo and I will definitely attend the wedding. Mr. Zhou, would you like to join the fun? Maybe after attending a few weddings, you might want to get married."

"Cough, cough..."

Zhou Yu choked on his tea.

He held his fist to his lips and said, "I’m not close to her, so I’ll pass on this excitement. Continue with your tea, sister-in-law. I still have some tasks to handle, as you know. The Zhong Family is truly troublesome, and Huo Er has been quite stressed recently."

Qiao Xi stopped there and said, "Okay, go on with your work."

Qiao Xi watched him leave, his figure a bit hasty.

She picked up the teacup and sipped gently; the fragrance was graceful and lingeringly fresh.

Delicious.

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes, thinking about her own matters.

She hadn’t mentioned to Mr. Huo about registering with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. Dr. Yan had said that few people knew about the past incident. It was a matter for the Chinese medicine community, and outsiders couldn’t intervene.

Mr. Huo probably didn’t know the consequences of losing at the trial competition.

The selection competition hadn’t started yet.

She... didn’t know how to start talking about it.

Maybe wait a bit longer.

Dr. Yan had also said he had cleared up the relationships. Starting tomorrow, she could go help him at the hospital whenever she was free, to see more medical cases and further accumulate experience and refine her acupuncture skills.

She hadn’t even mastered the first Chapter of "Plum Blossom Nine Needles" yet.

...

The night was deep.

Streetlights threw dappled reflections onto the car window.

Tiny, fragmented reflections scattered along the entire length of Wolt Street.

An Audi A3 stopped at the entrance of the residential area. Shu Xue got out of the passenger side and politely said to the driver, Qin Yuan, "Thank you for bringing me back. The movie was great."

Qin Yuan smiled graciously and said, "Then next time you have a day off, I’ll take you to the resort area around Haicheng. Our company’s project is over there, just to relax."

Shu Xue didn’t agree but said, "Next time, we’ll see, as we’re both quite busy."

"Your aunt has already given me your address. How about I pick you up for work tomorrow?"

"Sure, drive safely."

Shu Xue greeted him and walked back. Just as Qin Yuan was about to drive away, he noticed a pearl earring that had fallen in the gap by the passenger seat.

On this end,

Shu Xue rode the elevator up, entered the password, pushed open the door, and walked in.

A tall silhouette pressed her against the door, his cool lips forcefully and fiercely kissing her.
