Step aside! My Demon CEO

Chapter 189 Gentle Waiting

Under the gentle moonlight, Xia Nuan looked at lu xiujie so seriously for the first time. When he faced her, there was always a faint smile on his lips, which was as gentle as the wind.

"I'm not afraid now, am I?" Lu Xiujie asked with a smile and gently smoothed her slightly frowned brows. His sudden intimacy made xia nuan unable to adapt.

Xia Nuan shook her head. The dark part of the elevator just now seemed to have gone through the purgatory of life. She was really afraid at that time. It was a psychological fear. Perhaps many people could not understand it. She was afraid to go back to those days, that painful past, always with her.

It was because of that that she hated Ji Mingze more and more. She hated her own stupidity. Everything was created by her, but she also hated herself.

Xia nuan wanted to withdraw her hand, but lu xiujie didn't seem to want to let her go. Instead, he held her hand tighter. She went to the underground garage and took the elevator. Xia Nuan didn't dare to step in. At this moment, she was a little resistant to the elevator.

"Don't be afraid. What just happened was an accident." Lu Xiujie encouraged her with his eyes.

"Let's take the stairs." Xia Nuan struggled to get rid of Lu Xiujie and turned to escape. She was still afraid of going through the dark and secluded scene just now. At least she didn't want to have another physical examination now.

"Nuan, what about you going to work tomorrow? Take the stairs?" Lu Xiujie did not stop her, but said faintly.

Xia Nuan's public relations office was on the 22nd floor. If she climbed the stairs, she would be half dead.

Xia Nuan knew that she shouldn't have run away. She was so strong, so what was this little difficulty? Suddenly, she smiled in her heart. When did she become so fragile?

This kind of thing might happen many times in her life. What should she do then, or run away like this? But her mother and child needed her care. She couldn't even take care of herself, so how could she take care of others?

She should be stronger and more fearless.

Xia Nuan raised the courage in her heart. She knew that the worry and fear in her heart were caused by the devil. She had to overcome it. Even in the darkness, she had to stand straight.

She turned around, glanced at Lu Xiujie, skipped him, and walked straight to the elevator. But undeniably, she was a little scared. She was afraid that the next second would happen again.

Suddenly, a big hand pulled her back. It was so strong that she brought her whole body into lu xiujie's arms.

"Forget it. I'll take the stairs with you. I'll go to work with you tomorrow." Lu Xiujie said seriously, his eyes filled with heartache.

He hated Xia Nuan for pretending to be strong and loved her even more.

Just now, maybe she could act coquettish, maybe she could rely on him more, but she didn't. She just wanted to face it alone. Even if this had happened before, she was so scared that her legs were weak and her whole body was full of energy.

Lu Xiujie had rarely been so strong in front of her, but there was no room for rejection in his words. Xia Nuan's heart was inexplicably moved. It was like a tidal wave that swept over her heart. At this moment, she didn't want to think about anything. Let's go with him. It was so relaxing to not think about anything.

All the way there was silence. Xia Nuan wanted to sleep when he got into the car. He was still dizzy. The window was half open and the breeze blew in. It was very comfortable.

She was very tired and fell asleep unknowingly. Lu Xiujie stopped the car on the side of the road and adjusted the seat for her so that she could sleep more comfortably. He took off his coat and covered her. Afraid that she would catch a cold, she closed the window and played soft music.

The car was driving in the noisy city, but at this moment, Xia Nuan's heart was quiet and comfortable. He took off his burden and fell asleep safely.

Lu Xiujie's gentle eyes slowly fell on her face, without any makeup, but the soup and noodles were always so beautiful that he was moved.

After sending Xia Nuan upstairs and coming down, Lu Xiujie remembered that the cake she had packed had fallen into his car, but it was already so late. Knocking on the door again might affect her rest.

Lu Xiujie took the cake back to his small apartment, cut it up and tasted it bit by bit. He, who had always disliked sweets, thought of Xia Nuan's quiet eating of the cake and ate it with relish. At this moment, he felt that he must be crazy. He actually ate sweet food and ate so much at once.

When she got up in the morning, Xia Nuan went out at the same time as usual. Because the place she lived was far from the company and more remote, she had to take a bus to the subway station.

Every day, she shuttled through the crowd and saw all kinds of faces. As she walked, she turned a blind eye to everything around her and came and went in a hurry.

In the morning, there were not many people at starbucks. A figure in a black suit sat upright by the window and was focused on reading the newspaper. There was a plate of fake plants on the table, and the steaming cup of Mocha chino coffee gave off a refreshing fragrance.

Ji Mingze looked at the watch in his hand. It was exactly 8: 20. He looked up and looked out the window. Finally, he saw the familiar figure among the people.

Xia Nuan was wearing a light gray suit dress today. It was tailored very well, with a delicate lapel design. It was simple and elegant, with a mature feminine smell, and was exceptionally elegant and capable. However, the small face, which was the size of a palm, and the clarity in her eyes, seemed to be a few years younger than her actual age. Her beautiful hair was shining in the sun.

She turned her back to him, and Ji Mingze stared at her background, lost in thought. He did what he shouldn't have done like a child and was afraid of being discovered. He carefully held the newspaper in his hand, afraid that she would suddenly turn around, but there was a hint of expectation.

Xia Nuan carried a baggy bag on his shoulder. It was a black leather female bag without any decoration. The only feature was that it was big enough to hold a lot of work documents. She was holding breakfast from the street, sometimes soy milk and bread, sometimes egg rolls or something.

Standing in the crowd, waiting for the traffic light like the people around her, she had a calm expression on her face, not a trace of anxiety. The car would always raise a cloud of dust when it passed the road. There was too much traffic at this intersection.

When the wind blew, it always blew up Xia Nuan's long black hair.

When the red light passed and the crowd like quicksand rushed towards the opposite side, she walked slowly and disappeared at the corner. The subway was just opposite the intersection. She took another subway and could reach the company in about ten minutes. When they arrived there, breakfast was already cold. They would eat it immediately after heating it in the microwave and then start working all day.

Ji Mingze watched her disappear, put down the newspaper in his hand, took a sip of coffee, and then went to the front desk to pay the bill. His car was parked outside. If Xia Nuan had been more careful, he would have noticed it.

Not sure how long it had been, Ji Mingze knew exactly when Xia Nuan was passing by. It was this starbucks. He waited here every day just to see her.

There was an inexplicable impulse in his heart that drove him to do this. From the north to the west, Ji Group and the Dingsheng Group were completely different directions, almost spanning two North Coast.

At half past eight, he drove back to the company.

Hao Yang used to pick him up, but now that he was driving alone, Hao Yang felt a little inexplicable about his change. In order to come here for this cup of coffee in the morning, he had to get up an hour earlier than before. In the morning, he ran a few laps around the path in front of his house with an empty stomach, then went home to eat the breakfast prepared by Nanny Loong, and then came to starbucks.

It was that seat every day, and it was as if it had been arranged. It was always empty, as if waiting for him to come. The waitresses at starbucks recognized him. If they had the guts, they went up to him and asked for his business card.

He smiled and didn't say a word. Then he pointed to Xia Nuan, who was standing outside waiting for the traffic light. The girl looked at xia nuan's background. Although she couldn't see the front, she could see her outstanding demeanor just by her slender figure and beautiful hair.

The girl blushed, lowered her head and left resentfully.

Perhaps they were all thinking that such a handsome man would come here on time every day to wait for the girl he loved, and that girl was really happy.

**

Xia Nuan usually arrived at the company 15 minutes earlier, so there was still time for breakfast.

She nodded and greeted everyone passing by with a smile on her face, polite and kind.

When she returned to the office, she saw a small cake on the table with a note beside it. It said, "I ate your cake last night. I'll compensate you for this."
