Ms. CEO is His Bodyguard - Chapter 59

Xia Jiannan stared deeply at Wang Rouxi for a few seconds before nodding his head, “Okay.”

Looking at ‘his’ bright smile, Xia Jiannan believed that ‘Di Yi’ must be planning something, going as far as to invite him out for lunch.

His highly observant trait also allowed him to catch on to the subtle change of the way ‘Di Yi’ had addressed him — from “Mr. Xia” to “CEO Xia”.

“Shall we go now?” Wang Rouxi asked, deliberately not mentioning anything about the woman from before.

“Mmm.”

The two of them walked side by side, both enjoying the comfortable silence as they got on the private elevator.

But of course, there would always be that wicked witch who would jump in to ruin this perfect moment.

“Wait!” Qin Kexin ran awkwardly in her high-heels, just barely managing to get inside before the elevator door closed. “I made it!”

She leaned against the wall and tried to regain her breathing. She did not expect that Xia Jiannan would really leave her there alone!

Xia Jiannan merely cast a glance her way and turned to Wang Rouxi who was treating Qin Kexin like air.

“Yes?” Wang Rouxi felt Xia Jiannan’s stare and she could not help but ask.

At the side, Qin Kexin seethed with anger when she realized that the two men were blatantly ignoring her presence. She clenched her fists on her sides, trying hard to regain her calm and to retain her prim and proper demeanor.

Fortunately, the elevator ride only lasted for less than a minute. If it was any longer, Qin Kexin would have already lost her mind.

“Hmph!” Qin Kexin stumped her foot before walking out the elevator. She was obviously displeased that her charm did not work on the two.

What’s worse was that she heard the sounds of faint laughter as she got inside her car in a huff!

Her personal assistant yelped in surprise when her boss slammed the car door in her fit of anger.

“Let’s go!”

Seeing her boss like that, the personal assistant wanted to ask what happened but she hesitated, not wanting to face her wrath. But her curiosity got the better of her and she eventually stammered: “Y-young Miss, aren’t you supposed to get a ride with CEO Xia?”

Qin Kexin froze.

Right. She did ask her personal assistant to “leave” earlier so that she’ll create a chance for her and Xia Jiannan to spend time together.

But in her fit of anger, she forgot about it and just stormed off. Qin Kexin really wanted to strangle herself right now. She screwed up big this time. She just told Xia Jiannan that her driver was not back yet. How would she explain this to him? Where would she put her face now? It’s really embarrassing!

“Bring me to my Villa.”

Qin Kexin’s face was not that thick to show up in front of Xia Jiannan after such humiliation without feeling ashamed. It would be best to not see him for the time being.

. . .

Inside Wang Rouxi’s car.

“Say, CEO Xia, would you like to guess where we are going?”

Wang Rouxi tried to initiate a conversation as she gave Xia Jiannan a sideways glance.

The stubborn CEO refused to sit at the back and insisted on sitting on the passenger’s seat, saying something along the lines of “I’ll take the shotgun. You drive. End of discussion.”

Thus, Wang Rouxi sat on the driver’s seat while Xia Jiannan sat on the passenger’s seat.

Xia Jiannan would usually not bother about these things, but he found himself guessing, “Hao Hua?”

Wang Rouxi smiled and made a U-turn. “Hao Hua it is then.”

Seeing the car go back in the direction they came from, Xia Jiannan suddenly had a thought. He felt that even if he mentioned another place, Wang Rouxi would bring him there.

“Hold on.” Xia Jiannan could not help but ask, “Where were you planning to take me originally?”

Wang Rouxi tilted her head to the side and said while looking straight at Xia Jiannan’s eyes, “What do you mean? Of course I’ll take you to where you want to eat. Didn’t you say you’d like to eat at Hao Hua? Or did you change your mind?”

Xia Jiannan was speechless.
