After he was rejected, Chen Sinan looked faintly at her and said, “Do you want me to do what I did last night to you again? If that’s what you want, I am very willing to.” Once he was done, he purposefully moved closer to her.
Xin Siyue continuously took a few steps back out of fright. She hurriedly rejected and waved her hands. She said, “No. Don’t come over!”
“Ok. Go pack your things. I’ll be waiting for you to get off work.”
Xin Siyue clenched her teeth in frustration due to his confident look that she would submit to him. She firmly glared at him before returning to her office.
When the colleague saw her returning, she immediately asked with bright eyes, “How is it? Do you know that handsome guy?”
Xin Siyue didn’t want to talk about him. “Nothing happened. I’m going back to work now.”
She had worked approximately another two hours until Chen Sinan called her. Xin Siyue hung up on him without a doubt.
In the next second, he sent her a blunt text. “If you don’t come down. I don’t mind coming up and bringing you down.”
Xin Siyue looked at the message and felt like hardships were ahead. She grinded her teeth and picked up her bag as she stood up. When she walked downstairs, she was expressionless. Seeing his car was still parked there, she immediately got in the car. Without looking, she said, “Chen Sinan, we should make it clear between us. I can act like nothing happened last night so stop coming to see me in the future…”
“Cough, cough…”
“Huh?”
This voice?
Xin Siyue looked shockingly at Chen Sinan. That man looked expressionlessly back at her.
He wasn’t the one making the noise before.
Xin Siyue was confused but Chen Sinan shifted his gaze to the seat in the back. Xin Siyue followed his gaze to see a middle-aged man wearing a black suit in the car, besides Chen Sinan.
She looked carefully at him and it wasn’t hard to tell that he and Chen Sinan had the same thick eyebrows and red phoenix eyes. Even the bridges of their noses were similar.
“This is…” Xin Siyue felt her heart thumping violently. Did he hear everything that she had just said?
Chen An seemingly understood how awkward she felt so he slightly smiled, before returning to his serious face. “Hello, I am that boy’s father, Chen An.”
“Father?” Xin Siyue was shocked. Why did she see Chen An?!
She remembered the book mentioning how Chen An was still a high government official early in his years and resigned later on due to health reasons. After many years of treatment, his body had recovered. Then, he muddled himself in the business world.
Her impression of Chen An wasn’t fully developed. He seemed to be the typical male lead’s father who was successful in business and had little to say. He also barely intervened with the male lead’s matters and the matters at home were handled by his wife. He only made decisions regarding major matters.
Xin Siyue was feeling sluggish, up until Chen Sinan reached over to pat her head. He laughed at her and said, “You really are self-conscious. Although you have to change the way you address him eventually, I’m scared that my father might be frightened by you calling him ‘father’ during the first meeting.”
Seeing the two’s interactions, Chen An pondered deeply over Xin Siyue’s words. He immediately had a hunch that his son, who had been pursued in the past by numerous people since he was a child, was currently being mocked by the other party. This son was now having a hard time on the path to pursuing his future wife.
Chen An was in a pretty good mood after thinking of this. Someone could finally abuse this boy now.
Chen An laughed and agreed, “I did get frightened.”
Xin Siyue watched as the father and son echoed one another and she felt embarrassed. She avoided Chen Sinan’s hand seamlessly and explained, “That’s not it. I was just a bit shocked so I repeated the phrase. Uncle, please forgive me. I didn’t mean that.”
