Shuxin was slightly stunned. It took her two seconds to react. Huo Yanqing must have overheard Huo Jibai's last words to her. "I didn't write the love letter. I'm just passing it on behalf of someone else."
A gentle breeze blew over. Shuxin's ink-black hair fluttered gently in the air. A few strands of hair gently brushed past Huo Yanqing's face, leaving behind a faint fragrance.
There was a trace of gentleness in Huo Yanqing's cold eyes, and his thin lips were faintly visible. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and raised a hand that was close to Shu Xin. "Sorry to trouble you, Miss Shu."
The place where Huo Yanqing stopped was right at the staircase. Shu Xin was surprised by his strong sense of distance. Looking at the slender and elegant big hand in the air, her heart beat so fast that she could not control herself.
Shuxin wasn't stupid. She knew that Huo Yanqing wanted her to help him down the stairs.
Shuxin gulped nervously. She slowly reached out her hand. Just as her fingers were about to touch Huo Yanqing's hand, she curled her fingers and released them. She then placed her hand on the back of his and held his hand.
Huo Yanqing was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Shuxin to hold his hand. Usually, he would place his hand on Song Li's forearm.
Shuxin had only met Huo Yanqing four times. The first time was at a bar, where he was sitting on a chair. The second time was on the road, where he was sitting in the car. The last time was at his company.
She had never seen how Song Li served Huo Yanqing. Naturally, she didn't know how to help him.
Shuxin's face quickly heated up. Her heart was beating wildly. "Two more steps and we'll be at the bottom of the stairs."
"Okay." Huo Yanqing's lips curved into a charming smile. He held Shuxin's delicate hand in his.
Shuxin's heart raced again because of Huo Yanqing's small action. It felt like it was going to burst out of her chest. She looked up at the calm man beside her.
His side profile was deep and defined. His thin lips were slightly pursed. His expression was as calm as ever.
Shuxin shook her head. Shuxin, what were you thinking? How could someone like Huo Yanqing take advantage of you? It was just more convenient to hold his hand. After all, her hand was too small to hold his big hand.
Yes, that must be it!
After Shu Xin hypnotized herself like this, the rampaging heart in her chest calmed down a little.
"There are two more steps on this floor..."
"Yes.
"Turn, slow..."
"Yes.
"We're going down the stairs."
"Yes."
The girl's delicate and caring voice seeped into his heart. It was like the song of a skylark, sweet and moving.
From the fifth floor to the first floor, Huo Yanqing's lips were pursed into a faint smile.
Song Li was worried about Huo Yanqing, so he waited on the first floor. When he saw Huo Yanqing, who had always avoided women like snakes and scorpions, holding Shuxin's hand as they came down the stairs …
His eyes were as big as copper bells. His mouth formed an 'O' shape. It was so big that an egg could be stuffed in. The expression on his face was as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight. Horrifying, too horrifying!
Song Li pinched his leg hard. Ouch, it hurt. It wasn't a dream.
It was real. The Fifth Lord's century-old iron tree was about to bloom.
Song Li composed himself and walked over with a smile. "The Fifth Lord, Young Master Bai is waiting in the car."
Shuxin saw Song Li walking over. She withdrew her hand and greeted him with a smile. "Secretary Song."
