Chapter 1045: Falling into His Arms
“Chief Editor Xia, can I ask, have you taken a fancy with that man?” Xia Mo asked as she sat beside Xia Yanran with her hand supporting her chin.
Xia Yanran pondered for a moment. “We’re still in the process of getting to know each other.”
Still in the process of getting to know each other? That meant their impressions of each other were good, right?
Then what about Uncle Xiao? Did he come all the way from Hong Kong to chase back Chief Editor Xia?
She did not know what happened between them, but Uncle Xiao must have loved her a lot as she was able to make Uncle Xiao unable to forget about her!
“Chief Editor Xia, what do you think of CEO Xiao?”
Xia Yanran could see Xia Mo was testing her. Did the little girl know about her relations.h.i.+p with Xiao Yi before? Was she trying to inquire if she had broken ties with Xiao Yi?
Xia Yanran smiled and said, “Mr Wen is back with the tickets. Momo, I’ll go in first.”
Before Xia Mo could say anything, Xia Yanran had already stood up and left.
Xia Mo quickly ran behind Xiao Yi, who was still buying the tickets. “Uncle Xiao, did you get the tickets that are at the same row as Chief Editor Xia?”
Xiao Yi took the tickets and looked at the anxious Xia Mo, finding it a little amusing. “Why are you even more anxious than me?”
“Of course I am! Uncle Xiao saved me before and you’re my benefactor. I naturally want to save my benefactor’s happiness!” Xia Mo took Xiao Yi’s arm and dragged him towards the ticket gate.
The film had not started and the theater was still lit. Xia Yanran and Wen Qian sat on the seats.
After a while, she saw two familiar figures walking in. Xiao Yi was tall, devilishly handsome and exuded a cold and dangerous air. He attracted the gazes of many girls in the theater as soon as he came in.
Xia Yanran had to admit, younger girls would be easily attracted by his big boss temperament.
Who had not thought of being the woman of a big boss when they were young?
If Junyuan had not injured his right wrist that time and could not hold the scalpel forever, she might still be deeply involved with him, unable to extricate herself and unwilling to wake up.
Xia Yanran and Wen Qian had picked a literary film. Compared with the Hollywood blockbusters, the attendance rate of literary films was obviously much lower.
Wen Qian had chosen seats in the middle row.
The seats beside them were still vacant.
After Xia Mo and Xiao Yi came in, Xia Mo pointed excitedly at Xia Yanran. “We’re sitting there.”
Xia Mo got Xiao Yi to go in first and she followed behind him.
Xia Yanran raised her head to look at Xiao Yi. She frowned when she saw him walking towards her.
The film was about to start and the lights in the theater were dimmed.
In the shadowy light, Xiao Yi’s figure was extremely tall and striking. There was heating in the theater so he took off his leather jacket and he wore a thin woolen sweater inside, making him seem young and fas.h.i.+onable.
Xiao Yi sat beside Xia Yanran.
Smelling the faint scent of tobacco and the mint fragrance of chewing gum on him, Xia Yanran felt like she had been cut off from the outside world for too long.
The film had started, but Xia Yanran was slightly distracted.
According to Xiao Yi’s past character, he would certainly do something to her.
But he didn’t.
He watched the movie with Xia Mo quietly.
Xia Yanran’s tense nerves relaxed slightly. Perhaps she was thinking too much.
“Miss Xia…”
Halfway through the movie, she heard Wen Qian calling her and she tilted her head slightly.
“I’m sorry, I just got a notice from the hospital and have to get back.”
Xia Yanran nodded to show that she understood.
After Wen Qian left, Xia Yanran glanced at Xiao Yi from the corner of her eye. He had never liked to watch such literary films and sure enough, he was leaning against the chair, his eyes slightly closed as if he were asleep.
Xia Yanran was not in the mood to watch the movie so she got up and prepared to leave.
She had to pa.s.s Xiao Yi and Xia Mo in order to leave. Xia Yanran bent over and walked lightly, trying not to wake Xiao Yi and disturb the people watching the film behind.
As she pa.s.sed Xiao Yi, her foot seemed to have tripped over something suddenly.
She stumbled and when she recovered, she had already fallen onto the man’s hard thighs.
Xia Yanran was shocked.
She did not know how she had fallen on Xiao Yi. Under her b.u.t.tocks, the man’s thighs were strong and firm and she could feel the hot temperature even through the fabric of his pants.
On the big screen, it was showing the scene of the male and female lead kissing. Xia Yanran’s fingers clenched and she suddenly found that her fingertips seemed to be pressing on something…
Xia Yanran’s beautiful face turned a flaming red in a flash.
She quickly withdrew her hand, but her fingertips brushed past the man’s zipper. She could feel the man’s lower abdomen tightening.
Xia Yanran looked at the man and he had opened his eyes, staring at her gloomily like a wild animal who was awakened and the light shooting out of his eyes seemed like it was going to burn her.
“Sorry.” Xia Yanran ran away in panic.
After she stood up, Xiao Yi did not chase after her. He covered his legs with the leather jacket.
…
Xia Yanran returned home and even though she had washed her hands, she still felt that sensation on her hands.
A strange feeling settled in her heart.
Junyuan was standing at the entrance of the kitchen and saw that Xia Yanran was was.h.i.+ng her hands again. “What’s wrong with you, why do you keep on was.h.i.+ng your hands from the moment you came home?”
“…Nothing.”
“How was your date today?”
“Quite good.” Xia Yanran went to Junyuan and looked at his right hand. “Brother, I asked Zhizhi and she knows a Miracle Doctor Bai whose medical skills are good. She said that if you look for him, there might still be a chance in curing your hand.”
Junyuan said with his eyes slightly dark, “After experiencing hope and disappointment several times, I don’t want to have much hope anymore.”
Not wanting to talk more about his hand, Junyuan turned and returned to his room.
Letting out a sigh, Xia Yanran knew that Junyuan was upset. He had a chance to be promoted but his injured wrist almost ruined his life.
…
The next day, Xia Yanran received some unbelievable news when she arrived at the office.
Sister Mei, one of the most senior employees of the company, was dismissed.
Xia Yanran’s first reaction after hearing the news was to find Xiao Yi and reason with him.
Why did he dismiss Sister Mei? Was it because Sister Mei introduced a date to her?
But, didn’t he buy over the boss’s shares because of Xia Mo?
Xia Yanran asked Da Li and learned that Xiao Yi had arrived at his office early in the morning. Xia Yanran knocked on the door of his office.
She only heard the man saying ‘enter’ after several knocks.
Xia Yanran pushed the door open.
Xiao Yi was sitting behind his desk looking through doc.u.ments and Bai Tongtong was sorting them out for him. Bai Tongtong had taken off her coat and wore only a tight white s.h.i.+rt inside, her chest area tight and two b.u.t.tons were unb.u.t.toned. From Xia Yanran’s angle, she could already vaguely see her cleavage, let alone Xiao Yi, who was sitting on the chair.
Xia Yanran went over and slammed at the table. “CEO Xiao, I heard that Sister Mei was dismissed?”
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows. “Why, you’re finally willing to look me in the eye and talk to me?”
