Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 723: Didn’t Stop Them
"Surprised?"
Ye Xinluo shook her head.
She wasn’t surprised because he had mentioned it a few days ago, but the time hadn’t been finalized then.
Resting her head on his chest, she quietly listened to his strong heartbeat, feeling that all of this seemed somewhat unreal.
Fate is such a magical thing. A few months ago, she didn’t even know Beichen Rui, nor did she know about Jingxi’s background. Yet a few months later, she was going to marry Beichen Rui. It all felt like a dream.
"Brother Rui, I want to go out for a walk. Could you accompany me..."
The office door was pushed open, and before the word "please" could leave Liang Qianqian’s mouth, she saw the scene inside and quickly closed her mouth.
She quickly averted her gaze, fingers tightly clutching the strap of her bag, her expression somewhat awkward.
Ye Xinluo, who was leaning in his arms, was startled by the commotion and hurriedly tried to get up, but before she could move, her shoulder was pressed down, immobilizing her.
"Is something wrong?" He looked up and glanced coldly at the suddenly intruding Liang Qianqian, his tone neither good nor bad.
Pinching her fingertips, she pursed her lips and lowered her head. After a while, she stammered out, "I... I didn’t know sister-in-law was here, I’m sorry..."
Mo Han walked into the office and saw the awkward situation. Scratching his head, he only explained after Beichen Rui’s cold gaze swept over him, "Rui, this lady insisted on coming in. I couldn’t stop her."
"Hmm." Beichen Rui’s face darkened, and he replied before turning to look at Liang Qianqian, "Remember to knock the next time you come in. What do you need?"
Liang Qianqian: "Rui... Brother Rui, I wanted to say that I want to go out for a walk... but I’m not familiar with this place. Could you, maybe, accompany me?"
Beichen Rui didn’t speak. He glanced down at the person in his arms, and the moment Liang Qianqian finished speaking, he felt a sharp pinch at his waist, increasing in intensity.
Yet he didn’t make a sound, not even frowning. He freed a hand, picked up a document on the table, and spoke in a bland tone, "I have things to do. If you want to go shopping, go by yourself."
Having no intention to be polite, he casually set his gaze on Mo Han, "Help me show Miss Liang out."
Hearing this, Liang Qianqian was about to say something, but before she could utter a word, she saw Beichen Rui lower his head, ignoring her...
She bit her lip, forcing a smile despite the awkwardness, "Then... I’ll take my leave, Brother Rui, sister-in-law, goodbye." After speaking, she tightened her grip on her bag’s strap and walked towards the door.
As she turned, a sharp coldness flashed in her eyes...
Once the office door closed again, the indifference on Beichen Rui’s face disappeared completely, replaced by a deep frown as he reached for the spot on his waist.
"Wife, you’re trying to murder your husband," he said, pulling her hand away from his waist to hold it in his own.
"Who’s your wife? Stop calling me that, we’re not even married yet," she retorted discontentedly, then lifted her head, looking into his eyes with a sarcastic tone, "Brother Rui, I want to go shopping..."
He rolled his eyes in exasperation, "How come I’ve never seen anyone else call so intimately before?"
Sometimes, a woman’s sixth sense is very accurate. She always felt Liang Qianqian’s attitude towards him was odd, and for no apparent reason, sensed that Liang Qianqian harbored hostility towards her.
...
The next day, Beichen Rui was still handling a lot of documents, and it went on like this for several consecutive days. As the new week began, Beichen Rui handed over the company’s affairs to Mo Han and Xu Kun, and boarded a flight abroad with Ye Xinluo and Jingxi.
