"Pack what luggage!"
Si Jiangchen reached out his long arm and pulled me back into his arms. "You heartless thing. Do you want to run away just like that?"
"No! I'm not trying to run away!"
My feet left the ground. I had to put my arms around his neck before I could speak. "You're going to have a meeting. I have nothing to do. I might as well go back and pack my luggage!"
"Quibbling! You just don't want to stay with me!"
Si Jiangchen carried me back to the room specially arranged for me and threw me, along with my phone, onto the bed.
"There's only an hour left! Don't you need to prepare?"
I pushed him in alarm and shouted. If he didn't prepare well for his projects worth tens of millions, and if the projects failed, wouldn't it be my fault?
"Of course I need to prepare!"
Si Jiangchen had already loosened his tie and leaned over. "So, Xiao He needs to cooperate with me more so that I can have time to prepare."
"… But!"
I still wanted to push him away and argue with him, but Si Jiangchen had already tied my wrists together with his tie and fastened them to the headboard. "You can't… Um…"
I couldn't say the words of argument anymore. That guy was like a hungry wolf that had gone without food for several meals. He bit my neck. In an instant, a tingling and itchy numbness spread all over my body. How could I say anything? All that could come out of my open mouth were shameful gasps…
The bed sheets on the bed must have been newly changed by the hourly worker. They were full of the faint smell of sunlight.
I was tied to the headboard and couldn't break free from Si Jiangchen's restraint no matter how hard I tried. A ray of afternoon sunlight shone through the clear glass and landed on the pillow, and also on my eyelids. Although my eyes were tightly closed, there were still red spots dancing in front of my eyes.
Suddenly, it was as if a dark cloud had covered the spots in front of my eyes. Si Jiangchen's hoarse voice sounded above my head. "Do you like it, Xiao He? Why don't you open your eyes?"
How dared I open my eyes? I desperately turned my head to the side and tried to hide my face with my arms tied above my head.
Just then, the phone that Si Jiangchen had thrown beside the bed rang. First, there was a WeChat notification on my phone. After it rang for a long time, Si Jiangchen's phone started ringing non - stop.
"Um… Don't work anymore…"
I couldn't stand this guy's insatiable demands anymore. He was cool and calm in front of others, but in front of me, he was an out - and - out lecher!
"It's not even four o'clock yet. Why bother with it?"
Si Jiangchen laughed softly. "This is private time. I belong to Xiao He."
"… You bad guy!! Bad guy… I have calls too!!"
I had to open my eyes and glance in the direction of my phone. Although it was no longer ringing continuously, the notification sound every two seconds made it impossible for me to ignore.
"Do you want to answer it?"
Si Jiangchen seemed to be very kind. He reached out his long arm and grabbed my phone.
"Yes!!"
I nodded quickly, thinking that he was going to untie me. Unexpectedly, this guy directly unlocked the phone screen and held it in front of me.
"Let me go and let me answer it myself!"
I was extremely anxious and struggled to sit up. If Zhao Zifeng or A Wen called me on WeChat video, wouldn't I be so ashamed that I'd want to crawl into a hole in the ground?
"… Hehe."
Si Jiangchen squinted his eyes and playfully threw my phone to the side.
"No!! Then I won't answer it…"
Looking at the phone thrown to the side, I was so angry that I opened my mouth and bit his arm.
Si Jiangchen was quite satisfied at this moment and didn't even bother to dodge. He let me bite him a few times, then reached out and held my chin for another deep kiss. The suffocating feeling of lack of oxygen and the increasingly intense impact finally made me lose consciousness… Extreme fatigue and stimulation instantly lulled me into a sweet dream…
…
I didn't know how long I had slept. I seemed to hear Si Jiangchen talking to someone.
I was immediately startled and quickly sat up.
Clearly, that guy had his own office. Why was he having a meeting in my bedroom?
In a daze, I saw Si Jiangchen sitting on the chair beside the bed. He was wiping the water off his short hair with a towel while holding a phone and talking.
"… You, get out!!"
I was extremely anxious. I crawled to the edge of the bed like a little worm and poked his waist behind him. "Get out… Get out!"
He was having a meeting, and it was an international meeting. How could he be so casual?
Unexpectedly, Si Jiangchen was really shameless. While still on the phone, he directly pulled me onto his lap. "Does Xiao He not want to part with me, huh?"
I was startled by his action and quickly reached out my hand to cover the phone screen. He might be shameless, but I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of foreigners.
"Um…"
I glanced at the screen and found that it was just a WeChat voice call interface, with Ji Chen's WeChat avatar displayed on it.
I immediately realized that I had been tricked by Si Jiangchen again. I was so angry that I lay on his shoulder and bit him hard.
"Ah… Miss Du, I'll go to your place to pick up your luggage right now. Is there anything else you need to tell me?"
Ji Chen on the other end of the phone had already heard Si Jiangchen call my name and immediately knew that I was beside him. He quickly asked me, "You don't need to go back to the shop. I'll pick you up at Mr. Si's place early tomorrow morning."
"…"
I was so embarrassed that I bit my lips. I didn't know how to answer Ji Chen, so I could only glare at Si Jiangchen angrily.
"Xiao He says thank you, Assistant Ji."
Si Jiangchen held the phone and said, "Come here at 8:30 sharp tomorrow."
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
Ji Chen's voice on the other end of the phone was full of smiles. He then said, "Miss Du, that little boy named Xue Shuo today was really interesting. If it weren't for him, I really wouldn't have learned that chicken - immobilizing technique!"
"Ah!! How is Xue Shuo?"
Hearing Ji Chen mention that poor little boy, I couldn't help but ask, "Is he okay at Si Tong's place?"
"He's doing great. Tongtong is very nice to him."
Ji Chen rambled on, "He taught Tongtong and me the chicken - immobilizing technique. The method was so simple. Miss Du, you really fooled me badly."
I couldn't help but curl my lips. With Ji Chen's intelligence, my little tricks should have never been able to fool him. It was probably the bloody scene in Hongluo Temple that had scared him, causing him to overlook some details of my so - called magic.
However, I also didn't expect that little Xue Shuo to observe so carefully. I only heard Ji Chen say rather dejectedly on the phone, "I didn't even know it could be so simple to immobilize…"
"Enough!"
Before Ji Chen could finish rambling, Si Jiangchen had already impatiently interrupted him. "It's almost 3:30. Don't you need to prepare for the meeting?"
"… Um!!"
Ji Chen immediately fell silent. Although Si Jiangchen was usually gentle and reasonable to everyone, if there were any mistakes in work, he wouldn't show mercy to anyone!
