754 Returned to the Original Owner

The words “Mr. Ji” were stuck between Qiao Xi’s lips as she mulled over them repeatedly. Just the sound of his name made her blush and her heart throb. She did not need to say it out loud, but just the thought of it made her feel sweet and bitter. Perhaps she only dared to call him that when he was drunk, but when he looked at her with a clear gaze, she could only retreat to her original position and look at him from a distance, calling him “President Ji” in awe and in a distant manner.

Qiao Xi’s long eyelashes trembled and her eyes were a little red. She hesitated for a long while, and when Ji Yan frowned, she stammered, “I… I’m moving out.” She didn’t know what she was expecting. She knew that he wouldn’t care. In his eyes, she was probably just a pa.s.serby with a name. Whether she left or stayed, it was not enough to attract his attention. However, she still wanted to stand in front of him and tell him that she was leaving. At least, she could not disappear without him knowing.

“Congratulations,” Ji Yan raised one of his eyebrows and responded indifferently as if he didn’t care at all. Even though she had expected this, Qiao Xi still felt a little disappointed. She clutched her suitcase and said in a low voice, “I… Still, thank you for taking care of me during this period of time.”

“It was Madam’s decision, it had nothing to do with me. I didn’t take care of you,” Ji Yan said indifferently. “Even if I did, it wasn’t because of you. You don’t have to thank me.” Even if he had really helped Qiao Xi, it wasn’t to help her, but to please his Madam.

Ji Yan was straightforward and honest, even to the point of being cruel. Qiao Xi’s heart ached. Ji Yan did not even give her the chance to lie to herself. “But I’d still like to thank you, even if you don’t need it.” Qiao Xi felt a little depressed, and her tone became a little more stubborn. She suddenly looked up at Ji Yan impulsively. “President Ji, I want to ask you something. Do you…” “Mr. Ji, you’re still here? That’s great.” At this moment, a surprised voice was heard. Qiao Xi’s body stiffened, and she turned around stiffly. Shen Hanxing was standing not far away from the door, looking at her with a smile on her face. There was nothing unusual about her expression. When did she come over? How long had she been standing there? How much did she hear? Did she notice anything?

Horrified, Qiao Xi paled.

“Why did Madam come out?” Ji Yan’s expression visibly softened when he saw Shen Hanxing. He said softly, “The sun has been strong out here. Madam, don’t stand in the sun.”

“Mr. Ji, you left something behind. I bring it over to you.” Shen Hanxing chuckled and raised her hand. A faint light flashed between her fingers. It was a simple and elegant tie clip that was low-key and well-designed.

Ji Yan paused for a moment and curled his thin lips. “Did I leave it at Madam’s room last night?” Of course, he did not have the chance to leave the tie clip in Shen Hanxing’s room last night. The tie clip did not belong to him either. In other words, it was probably a gift that Shen Hanxing had prepared for him. Growing up in a well-off family, he had never been short of money even in the most difficult times. He had a professional image designer and paid attention to details. His clothes, shoes, and accessories had always been tasteful and elegant. He had a lot of tie clips and other stuff that were luxurious to ordinary people. However, every time he received a gift from Shen Hanxing, he was always pleasantly surprised and cherish it from the bottom of his heart. It was as if these small objects were coated with a different kind of glow when they came from her hands, making them particularly attractive.

“I’m returning it to its rightful owner.” Shen Hanxing laughed as well. Both of them knew that it was a gift from her, but neither of them mentioned it. They exchanged a sweet and affectionate look as if they had a tacit understanding. Shen Hanxing slowly approached Ji Yan and put the tie clip on for him. Then, she took a step back and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. “It’s very suitable for Mr. Ji.”

“Many thanks, Madam.” Ji Yan looked at the tie clip again and again, feeling happy and sweet. He lowered his head and planted a gentle kiss on Shen Hanxing’s cheek. “It’s because Madam’s taste is good.” Was he hinting at Shen Hanxing’s good taste in tie clips or in men?
