"Are you hungry?" He straightened her body up, and the two of them looked at each other.
The light in the study was very dim. He stood with his backlight, and there were many shadows on his face. He looked at her with an unpredictable expression.
Ji Xiaoxiao's heart was beating fast. Staring at such a close distance, she could only vaguely see his eyes, flashing with suspicion that was different from what he said.
Yes, if it were any person who suddenly found someone eavesdropping on their phone conversation outside the door, they would be suspicious of the other person’s motives.
Gao Shenran was no exception. Although he didn't ask directly why she was lying on the door in the middle of the night and eavesdropping.
This is also his cleverness. If he doesn't ask, if she doesn't tell him, it means she has something secret in her heart and is deliberately hiding it.
If she takes the initiative to confess, whether the answer is trustworthy depends on his smart intelligence.
Gao Shenran is not a fool. He built his family from scratch and owns a large and wealthy company. How can such a successful boss and CEO allow others to deceive him so easily?
Ji Xiaoxiao spent a lot of time thinking about the best excuse in her mind.
"Well, I'm hungry." She answered his question, then put her arms around his waist, buried her face in his arms, and complained coquettishly: "I had a nightmare just now, and when I woke up, I found you
No, I’m so scared!”
"It's okay, aren't I here?" He patted her shoulder, focusing on her thin clothes.
The back under the palm of her hand was wet. I believe it was really caused by the nightmare that woke her up.
"Then..., then I walked out of the room and heard some strange noises in the study. I..., I was so scared! I thought it was some kind of ghost, so, that's why I clung to the door panel and listened carefully. I
I didn’t know it was you in there.”
She hugged him harder and harder, his whole body trembling slightly, his voice became choked, and he looked like he was about to cry.
When Gao Shenran saw this, his whole heart softened. He hugged her shoulders, kissed the top of her hair, and comforted softly: "It's okay, it's okay."
In fact, he knew very well how long Ji Xiaoxiao had been outside and what she might have heard.
He noticed it clearly from the moment she turned the doorknob and walked out of the bedroom and headed towards the study door.
As a top killer, if he couldn't even notice the actions of ordinary people, he would have died a hundred and nine thousand times.
