Chapter 676: Chapter 676 Director Qi is too scheming!

The stormy kiss stole all the oxygen from Lu Mian.

Just before she became unable to fend it off and let out a whine, she used the last of her strength to push Xiao Qimo away.

Clutching her chest, she gasped for air in deep, ragged breaths.

The tender affection at the bottom of her eyes still carried a hint of resentment, as if blaming him for throwing her into such disarray, her heart racing excessively.

Lu Mian concluded, Xiao Qimo was a seductive demon who could steal away her soul!

Pushed away, Xiao A* Demon A* Qimo lightly traced his own lips with his fingertips, his deep gaze resting on the girl’s blushing face.

With one hand tucked into his pocket, his breathing turned heavy.

He stared at her, and amidst his hot breath, the man’s deep voice slowly began to speak.

“I think…” he paused mid-sentence, “you.”

Lu Mian focused on the shape his mouth made during the pause, her pupils shrank, and her breath hitched.

Her heart trembled violently.

He hadn’t vocalized the third word, but Lu Mian understood it through the turbid yearning in his eyes.

[Desire]

It was his first time doing this.

And she wasn’t ignorant of it either.

But in this setting, saying it in this way, even someone with a strong heart like Lu Mian couldn’t take it, her face visibly cycling through a range of intense emotions.

Only by fiercely swallowing her saliva was she able to suppress that palpitation he had forcefully stirred within her.

Thump, thump, thump.

Mouth dry, tongue parched.

Face flushed and ears burning red.

Xiao Qimo watched her steadily, not missing any of the subtle expressions on her face.

He felt that at this moment, the little girl was incredibly cute, lacking the cold aloofness, instead showing a girlish coyness, wanting to kiss, to embrace, and even wanting much more…

With those teasing, heated eyes set upon her, Lu Mian found all her rational thoughts in disarray.

Flustered and at a loss for how to respond, her face aflame, she could only utter an annoyed complaint after a long while.

“Shut up, you.”

Though it was a reprimand, it was laced with a hint of tenderness.

Xiao Qimo let out a low chuckle, his magnetic voice spreading effortlessly, sounds incredibly pleasant.

His smile carried a mischievous darkness as he spread his hands innocently, “What did I say?”

“You…”

Lu Mian opened her mouth, then instantly found herself at a loss for words.

Seeing the onlookers who had turned their backs on them, she became even more vexed.

This man was shameless!

He clearly said those words and yet put on such an innocent face.

“Old fox!” Lu Mian spat out the words and turned on her heel, “I’m going back to my room.”

Her face was about to burst into flames, aaaah…

—

And so, the restaurant returned to its peace.

Xiao Qimo didn’t rush to chase after Lu Mian, lazily pulling his gaze back only when she was out of sight and leisurely sat back down.

“Turn back around,” he commanded.

The people standing neatly in two rows finally turned back around with a sense of relief.

Even though they hadn’t seen anything, the images they conjured up in their minds were indeed vivid.

Ah, what a show it was.

Ke Weimin asked softly, “Mr.

Qimo, that lady is…”

“My girlfriend,” Xiao Qimo responded, his mood clear and cheerful, his smile turning even more mischievous, “The little girl missed me, she insisted on chasing me here.”

Ke Weimin: I’m finished…

Lu Mian in her room: …Hmm?

Are you sure?

Wa Zhiqi slapped his thigh, laughing along with Xiao Qimo’s words, “Indeed, Lu Mian put a lot of effort into coming to the office to find you, even running to the hospital to give me a shot!”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but cover his behind, “It was her first time giving an injection, and it had to be on me, it still hurts now!”

“Oh, is that so?” Xiao Qimo’s eyes were too deep.

He fiddled with the soup spoon in the bowl, the white ceramic handle clinking lightly against the bowl, emitting a few soft ticks.

Wa Zhiqi laughed, “But Lu Mian also got there by her ability, she scored full marks on the basic assessment!

Mr.

Qimo, aren’t you surprised, isn’t this unexpected?”

Everyone: That girl actually scored full marks?!

Before everyone had a chance to marvel at how awesome Lu Mian was, they were frightened by a cold laugh from Xiao Qimo.

“Heh.”

Xiao Qimo’s smile didn’t fade as he lazily glanced at Wa Zhiqi.

That look, quite complicated.

Wa Zhiqi suddenly became silent.

Did he, did he do something wrong?

“Team Wa,” Xiao Qimo “dinged” as he dropped his spoon, with an ambiguous smile, he said lightly, “Your wound hasn’t completely healed, has it?”

Wa Zhiqi shook his head, “Not quite.”

“Well then, I have some medicine here, you should try it.”

Xiao Qimo spoke carelessly, pulling out a small medicine bottle from his pocket and pushing it over.

The RE Factor from the farm had now entered the clinical trial phase.

He had received a sample these past few days, just right to give to Wa Zhiqi.

Wa Zhiqi had no clue about Xiao Qimo’s real thoughts, thinking the big shot had given him some miraculous elixir, tears of gratitude filled his eyes.

The others showed envious and jealous expressions in unison; this thing obviously exuded a quality far from ordinary.

Such a treasure, how they wanted it!

Wa Zhiqi pocketed the small medicine bottle like a treasured item and realized the covetous gazes from everyone around him, so without further ado, he tore open the packaging and swallowed the pill in one gulp.

There was only one pill in the small bottle, tiny like a soybean, and just like that, it was gone.

The team members around him were full of regret.

After taking the medicine, Wa Zhiqi quickly thanked Xiao Qimo, “Thank you, Mr.

Qimo, may I ask, what is this medicine?”

Xiao Qimo gave a cold laugh, “Experimental drug, you’re the first one to take it.”

Wa Zhiqi: …

He started frantically scratching at his throat, but the pill melted as soon as it touched his mouth; he broke out in a sweat and couldn’t cough it up.

The man sat down on the chair, looking slightly defeated.

Everyone: …What kind of plot twist is this?

In this drama of small separations winning over honeymoons, does Team Wa also have a script?

Wa Zhiqi: Thanks, you guys don’t understand my lab rat traits.

Ultimately, it was I who bore it all…

The sudden turn of events once again made everyone realize that the thoughts of this big shot were truly unfathomable.

However, when they looked at Wa Zhiqi, they still felt a bit envious.

Even if it was an experimental drug, it must be very precious…

No one spoke further, and Daine softly patted Xiao Qimo’s arm, trying to ease the atmosphere.

“Mr.

Qimo, cheer up!

Tonight you’ve seen your girlfriend and also enjoyed such a delicious supper, you should be happy!

Come on, everyone, don’t be so tense, let’s sit down and have some more!”

Since Daine was also their superior, people listened to him.

And gladly so.

They hadn’t finished a few dumplings just now!

The crowd surged forward again.

Xiao Qimo lifted his eyelids slightly.

Oh, there’s still supper.

He watched the men wolfing down the food, his features gloomy, grinding his teeth.

This was what his wife made!

Her supper, why should others eat it!

But he couldn’t just dissect them all, could he…

Xiao Qimo felt irritable, and as the teammates eyed the last two platters of stir-fried vegetables on the table, he dominantly and coldly pulled the plates toward himself.

And so he protected his food.

So what?
