Chapter 1555: Stunned

“Didn’t you use the casual ‘you’ before when we’re filming? You used it so naturally too.” Han Zhuoling frowned. “Didn’t you say you forgave me?”

Shi Xiaoya quickly waved off his concern. “It’s really fine now, I just got used to it. Plus… probably seeing you being serious right now doesn’t help. You wore casual clothes during filming, unlike now when you’re all decked out in suit and leather. Seeing these just…”

Make one use honorifics, not daring to go overboard.

Han Zhuoling: “…”

He huffed. “Then don’t use the honorific ‘you’ anymore next time. It sounds so distant.”

Hearing her use that word made him discomfited all over.

He spoke as if they were very close, Shi Xiaoya thought.

But she also couldn’t help thinking that her relationship with Han Zhuoling was probably better than others.

“Alright.” Shi Xiaoya nodded.

Han Zhuoling then moved away. When Shi Xiaoya walked past him, she smiled up at him.

She’d barely walked two steps before Han Zhuoling called, “Wait.”

Shi Xiaoya stopped and turned to look at him.

Han Zhuoling walked over with big steps. “I’ll send you up.”

Shi Xiaoya looked at him in surprise. She wanted to say that there’s no need as her neighborhood was quite safe.

Even though she’d moved out to set up her own company, her family wouldn’t let her suffer by herself outside.

So they had bought her a flat in this neighborhood.

The amenities in this area were not bad, and the security was good as well. Strangers were not allowed in.

Her family would be assured while she lived by herself only if her safety was guaranteed at least.

Plus, her flat had direct elevator access.

Directly outside the lift was her home.

If Han Zhuoling sent her up, wouldn’t that mean…

Shi Xiaoya quickly rejected, “It’s alright, the security here’s exceptional. You’ve probably seen it when you entered. The security officer won’t let you in if you’re a stranger. Plus, I’m fine every time I go home by myself.”

“That’s different.” Han Zhuoling was extremely gentlemanly. “You can’t help it going home alone, but since I’m here today, I can’t let you go up alone.”

Han Zhuoling frowned slightly. “Relax, I’ll just send you to your doorstep. I don’t have any other ideas.”

Shi Xiaoya scratched her head, saying embarrassedly, “I wasn’t really thinking about that. If you put it that way, it would seem like I’m cautioning against you.”

The latter half was mumbled, but Han Zhuoling managed to catch it.

Not only was he not upset, he even grinned.

He felt that she was too polite just now, and he didn’t like that at all.

Yet she actually sounded a little sulky just now; she had obviously relaxed once more around him.

How could he not be glad?

“Then let’s go.” Han Zhuoling’s happiness laced his voice.

Unsure if she heard correctly, Shi Xiaoya tagged along behind Han Zhuoling without further questions.

Han Zhuoling pressed for the lift.

The lift was on the ground floor, so they needn’t wait before the doors opened.

Han Zhuoling went in with Shi Xiaoya, who took out her card to activate the lift before pressing for her floor.

Han Zhuoling watched silently from one side, reassured about the security here.

When the lift stopped and the doors opened, Han Zhuoling was stunned.

A wide corridor entered his sight.

Towards the left wall was a sturdy wooden stool, while a shoe cabinet was on the opposite side.
