Chapter 83: Do You Have a Woman You Like?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“It’s alright, ma’am. We still have to thank you for helping us,” Xu Jiaojiao said.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work.”

Xu Jiaojiao nodded. “Thank you.”

After the cleaning lady left, Qi Shenbai left with Xu Jiaojiao.

Downstairs, in the black Bentley, Qi Shenbai brought Xu Jiaojiao to the back seat.

“It’s so hot…” Xu Jiaojiao reached out to open the car window.

At this moment, a strong hand grabbed hers. Xu Jiaojiao looked at Qi Shenbai in confusion.

“You’ll catch a cold from the wind. Let’s keep the windows closed, okay?” Qi Shenbai explained patiently. Then, he instructed Cang Xing to turn down the air conditioner.

Xu Jiaojiao pouted and looked at Qi Shenbai pitifully. Her eyes were misty as she said, “Can we just wind the windows down halfway…”

Qi Shenbai sighed slightly and agreed. “Alright, just halfway.”

The car window was quickly rolled down halfway, and the breeze outside blew into the car. Xu Jiao jiao felt much more awake, and she squinted her eyes in enjoyment. She could not help but exclaim, “It’s so cool out. This feels great!”

Qi Shenbai looked at Xu Jiaojiao’s back affectionately. He tucked her hair behind her ear and spoke in a low and magnetic voice,

“You’re such a little drunkard.”

“I’m not.” Xu Jiaojiao wanted to retort, but just as she turned around, she met Qi Shenbai’s bright eyes. It was as if they were filled with stars, mysterious and ethereal.

Unknowingly, Xu Jiaojiao felt her heart begin to beat faster.

“Do you have something to say?” Qi Shenbai’s gentle gaze fell on Xu Jiaojiao as he patiently waited for her to continue.

“I, uh… No.”

Xu Jiaojiao did not notice that under Qi Shenbai’s gaze, her cheeks had started to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She looked extremely adorable with a troubled expression on her face.

After a few seconds of silence, Xu Jiaojiao could not help but ask, “Qi Shenbai, do you have a woman you like?”

Qi Shenbai did not expect Xu Jiaojiao to be so direct. He was stunned.

He had lived in the Qi family for many years, and later on, he had traveled extensively to earn his current reputation. It was very easy for him to detect a person’s thoughts.

He could even predict Xu Jiaojiao’s reactions to anything he might say next.

However, when he saw Xu Jiaojiao’s innocent heart and expectant gaze, he felt himself growing flustered.

This had never happened before…

“Qi Shenbai, answer me…” Xu Jiaojiao spoke again after Qi Shenbai did not answer for a long time.

Qi Shenbai’s throat bobbed. He seemed to sigh the word, “No.”

Hearing this answer, Xu Jiaojiao did not seem to be discouraged. Instead, she revealed a faint smile. “Does that mean I can pursue you now?”

Qi Shenbai fell into a short silence. He originally thought that Xu Jiaojiao would ask if she could be his girlfriend, but she only asked for permission to pursue him.

It was as if she had never thought that he would like her as well.

This was rather unexpected.

She spoke very carefully, as if she had always been afraid of causing trouble and burdening others.

Even her confession was…

“Does this mean that you like me?” Qi Shenbai looked at her quietly.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, but Xu Jiaojiao gained courage that she had never had before. She nodded her head lightly.

Qi Shenbai did not speak for a long time, but a slight wave had already risen in his heart. However, his many years of calmness and rationality had taken the upper hand. His expression did not change at all, as if he would always be this calm.

He was like a hunter who lured his prey into an inescapable trap step by step.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m a hard man to win over.” Qi Shenbai revealed a rare smile.

“I see… In that case, I’ll work hard. No matter how stubborn you are, I’ll win your heart!” Xu Jiao jiao clenched her fists and cheered herself on.

“But how do 1 do that?” Xu Jiaojiao was a little vexed.

Qi Shenbai thought for a moment and asked, “How did you pursue Lu Zhuo back then?”

At the mention of Lu Zhuo, a hint of anger appeared on Xu Jiaojiao’s face. That scumbag, just hearing his name made her feel unlucky!

She had almost married this guy back then!

“I never pursued him!” Xu Jiaojiao said.

She was telling the truth. In the past, everyone around her had said that she was fated to marry Lu Zhuo. It was only a matter of time before they got married. Neither of them pursued the other.

Hearing Xu Jiaojiao’s answer, Qi Shenbai was taken aback. He raised his slender right hand and pinched Xu Jiaojiao’s chin. Their gazes met.

“Is that true?”

“Of course. I swear, I never—”

Qi Shenbai put his other hand to her lips, indicating for her to keep quiet.

“I believe you. You don’t have to swear on anything..”
