The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 801 - 816: Can You Take Me In From Now On?

Zhong Li reached out and held Gu Nanxi’s hand, turned around and smiled at Assistant Wang: "Do you want to join us for a bite? He just made some pasta."

Assistant Wang glanced at the dining table, thinking it looked quite delicious, and was about to say "sure," but was intimidated by the dark look in Gu Nanxi’s eyes: "I just ate, so I won’t disturb you two. There are still matters at the company, so I’ll leave now."

Zhong Li smiled and nodded: "Thank you for making a special trip."

"It’s alright." As they walked to the door, Assistant Wang whispered: "President Gu looks terrifying when he’s jealous."

Zhong Li laughed, patting Assistant Wang’s shoulder: "Drive safely on the way back, see you at the company tomorrow."

After watching Assistant Wang leave, Zhong Li closed the door and went to the dining room.

"What did he say to you at the door just now?" Gu Nanxi placed the pasta in front of Zhong Li and casually asked.

"He said you look scary when you’re jealous."

Gu Nanxi smiled and pinched Zhong Li’s chin: "As long as I’m gentle with you. By the way, can you take me in from now on?"

"What?" Zhong Li was a beat slow and didn’t catch what Gu Nanxi meant.

"Just let me live here with you."

Zhong Li was slightly dazed for a few seconds, stirring the pasta on the plate with utensils: "You have a place to live, why do you need me to take you in?"

"I want to hold you while sleeping at night."

They’re both adults, so there’s really nothing wrong with that, but Zhong Li hesitated, thinking about the scar on her back: "No need to rush, we just got together."

Since Zhong Li wasn’t ready yet, Gu Nanxi didn’t want to push her. After all, she’d be his sooner or later, no hurry.

"As you wish, but have you considered returning to work, staying by my side?"

Now that Zhong Li and Gu Nanxi were together, she really didn’t want to return. After all, dating such a handsome and wealthy boss would definitely attract jealousy and envy from many female colleagues, and she’d likely become the topic of gossip. The unpleasant comments wouldn’t be few.

"Better not, I’ve already adapted to my current work environment, and I don’t want to keep switching jobs."

Gu Nanxi put down his utensils, seriously looking at Zhong Li: "That Qi Shangyu has his sights on you, I don’t feel at ease with you there." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"He’s never done anything inappropriate to me, can’t you stop overthinking?"

Zhong Li laughed, pinching his ear. This man really wasn’t just a little jealous.

"Who says he hasn’t? Today he even danced with you."

"I agreed to dance with him because I saw you being arm-in-arm with another woman. Besides, that’s how dancing goes, right?"

Zhong Li didn’t find anything wrong with it, if anything, it was his own fault for being too close to another woman.

"I swear I’ll never let another woman touch me again." Gu Nanxi’s attitude in admitting his mistake was exceedingly good.

Zhong Li smiled, nodding: "Then if we ever fight, you have to remember to comfort me. Don’t let me be sad or cry out of anger, before you say sorry."

"I promise, if we ever fight, I’ll definitely be the one to apologize first."

If a man truly loves his woman, he wouldn’t bear to see her cry. Even if he’s not the one in the wrong, he’d still console her proactively.
