Chapter 1672: Chapter 6: Xie Duo Extra (3)

Compared to the people you meet on blind dates, working in the same group naturally makes you lean more toward your colleagues, and you also want to give this guy a chance.

At least let him confess and express his feelings.

After sending the two female colleagues home, it’s just the two of them left in the car. Yuan Jianyue has a headache, thinking about how to deal with him.

Originally, she planned to get out of the car at the community entrance, but he was very insistent on sending her to the building entrance. The car’s central lock was engaged, so Yuan Jianyue couldn’t just jump out and had to go along with it.

At the building entrance, the two got out of the car...

"Thank you." Yuan Jianyue thanked him.

"You’re welcome."

"I’ll head home first, drive safely." Yuan Jianyue was being polite, just wanting to leave.

"Wait a moment." The male colleague was a bit anxious but slightly introverted, not daring to voice his liking openly. Just when he was gathering courage to express his inner feelings, someone suddenly stepped out from the building.

The lights of the building were bright, the person was wearing glasses, with eyes behind the lenses that alternated between fierce and obscure, giving off a strong oppressive vibe.

He was already a bit timid, didn’t expect there to be a passerby, words stuck in his throat, but he didn’t dare speak.

Yuan Jianyue noticed his gaze was fixed behind her. She turned to see a familiar figure, "You... why are you here? When did you return?"

"Not long ago. I wanted to see you, so I came directly."

"Why didn’t you call me?"

"You said you were at a gathering, didn’t want to disturb you."

The male colleague saw the man approaching closer, the oppressive feeling from someone of a different class made him fear in his heart.

Instant intimidation!

"Is this your colleague?" Xie Duo walked up to Yuan Jianyue.

"Yes, he brought me back tonight."

"Thank you for bringing her." Xie Duo extended his hand.

The two men shook hands briefly. After the male colleague got in the car, watching Xie Duo and Yuan Jianyue stand side by side, a feeling of envy surged in him. He initially thought her blind date might be terrible, so he wanted to try, but unexpectedly...

It’s obvious he is extraordinary!

And his face looked somewhat familiar, though he couldn’t recall where he had seen it before.

The male colleague returned home defeated, listening to the radio on the way, a program was analyzing the recent stock market.

"... Due to Tang Wan’s solo exhibition impact, the initially declining Jiang stocks have recently surged, bringing Si Group and Xie stocks up too. These connected families truly rise and fall together, though Xie Group has relatively developed steadily in the past two years, thanks to Xie Gongzi expanding overseas businesses..."

Xie Group...

He immediately parked by the roadside, opened his phone, and searched for reports related to Xie Group. Over the past two years, Xie Duo had been away, not many photos, yet still available.

The male colleague wilted upon seeing the reports related to him!

How could he compare, how could he compete with Xie Gongzi.

On the other side

Xie Duo just returned to Beijing and came straight over, Yuan Jianyue naturally invited him to her home. They entered the elevator, and no one spoke, possibly because of the earlier incident, Yuan Jianyue felt a bit embarrassed, and Xie Duo felt a sense of crisis.

He seemed to forget, for an excellent girl, there wouldn’t be a lack of suitors around.

"Did you drink?" Xie Duo smelled the alcohol on her, in the small, airtight space, his voice was low and husky, seemingly with a hint of echo.

They hadn’t met for half a month, suddenly meeting brought a strange awkwardness.

"Just had a small glass with a leader."

"Hmm." Xie Duo nodded, "Earlier, your colleague, he likes you."

Yuan Jianyue didn’t expect Xie Duo to suddenly point out this matter, inevitably felt embarrassed, just replied softly, not knowing whether to admit or deny.

"If he confessed to you, would you accept?"

Yuan Jianyue just smiled, "Such hypothetical questions hold no significance."

"Earlier, I saw him wanting to confess to you, was a bit scared."

"Would you be scared?" Yuan Jianyue thought he was joking, raised her hand to adjust the strap of her shoulder bag.

The next second

Her fingers were pressed by someone, then her entire hand was tightly held in his palm.

His gaze, honest and direct as always, wandered across her face, scrutinizing her, the elevator was small, and their distance was instantly shortened.

Yuan Jianyue felt him getting closer, the breath blown over her, a wave of undeniable thrill filled her every limb.

"I don’t like him." Yuan Jianyue felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation and hurried to explain.

Xie Duo nodded, and the distance between them immediately widened.

But the air inside the elevator remained thin...

Causing oxygen deprivation!

"Then who do you... like?" Xie Duo still held her hand, tightly.

Yuan Jianyue’s breath stalled, lowering her gaze, not daring to look at him, only feeling the fingers holding her wrist, slowly loosened.

Her heart sank, inexplicably nervous, then...

She reached out and reversed to hold his hand.

Just in that brief moment—

She felt a soft, scorching sensation at the corner of her lips, gently landing.

Her pupils slightly dilated, the person in front of her, was at arm’s length.

Pressing against her lips.

In a searing embrace.

Accompanied by the "ding—" sound of the elevator reaching its floor.

She felt her heart racing almost to the point it might leap out of her throat.

She didn’t dare move, Xie Duo didn’t move either, just a gentle touch, without any shade of color.

Softly, even so briefly that there was no time to savor it.

Only that gentle burning sensation lingered, all emotions, tension, excitement, helplessness... pressed heavily on her heart.

The suffocating lack of oxygen made her face instantly flush red.

Xie Duo lowered his gaze, laughing softly as he looked at her:

"You like me."

His voice was certain, close to hers, as if constantly screaming her heart.

At this moment, the elevator door opened, the rush of fresh air coming in was like a flame encountering a gust of wind, instead of extinguishing it, the fire expanded more intensely.

Xie Duo tightened his grip on her hand, immediately taking her bag, holding it in his hand, pulling her out of the elevator.

Yuan Jianyue still felt the lingering touch of his on the corner of her lips. She had only drunk a small glass of wine today, yet now felt a little intoxicated...

Dizzy!

Letting Xie Duo lead her to her doorway, only upon hearing the barking from her dog inside did her consciousness gradually return.

He...

Kissed her!
