Bai Lu bit her lip and forced out a sigh. "… I'll do my best."
"I want you to win this project. I told you before that as long as you have confidence in yourself, you can do it well. Do you remember what I said? Hmm? "
His slender fingers slowly brushed past her cheeks. Her fair skin felt very good to the touch of his fingertips. Those red lips were right in front of his eyes. He would be able to suck them into his mouth if he bent down a little …
Liang Feifan secretly took two deep breaths and couldn't help but frown. A certain part of his lower abdomen was ready to move. The desire that he hadn't vented on her before was now clamoring for release …
However, this woman wasn't very cooperative.
"… Mr. Liang, can you not talk to me like that?!" Bai Lu was forced into a corner by him. Complicated and vexed emotions attacked her rationality. She felt like a little lamb waiting to be slaughtered in front of him. However, when faced with a big bad wolf, even a little lamb would fight back with all its might.
She reached out and grabbed Liang Feifan's wrist directly and pushed him away from her. "People will gossip if they see us."
"Who will see us?"
"…?" Bai Lu didn't want to stay in such a small and dangerous car with him anymore. "Can you open the door? I want to get out of the car! "
This time, Liang Feifan was very cooperative. He pressed the button on the central control. As soon as the car door was unlocked, Bai Lu couldn't wait to open the door and get out of the car. However, she regretted it the moment she stepped out of the car.
"… Where is this place?" She turned around in frustration and looked at the man who was leaning against the car door. She waited for him to give her an explanation.
"Can't you tell? This is my home. " Liang Feifan's lips curved into a smile. The last trace of tension on his handsome face disappeared. He locked the car door and walked directly to the main entrance.
Bai Lu wanted to cry but had no tears. Why did she feel like she had just escaped the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den?
"… Mr. Liang." She hurried to catch up with him. After thinking for a while, she said, "It's very late now. Um … I know Mr. Liang is very busy every day, but can you lend me your car? I still want to go home today to prepare the materials for tomorrow's bidding. If I walk down the mountain alone, it will probably be dawn. "
"I'm afraid it's not convenient for you to drive my car." Liang Feifan didn't even raise his head as he keyed in the passcode for the door. The transparent glass door slowly opened, and he walked in and took off his jacket. He said casually, "If people find out that you're driving my car, there'll be even more rumors. You hate that, right?"
"I'll let Guan Chao drive it tomorrow. I'm sure it won't cause any bad effects."
"Guan Chao is busy tomorrow." Liang Feifan looked helpless. "Besides, I'm used to driving that car. I've always been driving it myself. If you drive my car away, how am I going to go to work tomorrow?"
"Mr. Liang, you probably have more than one car, right?" For someone of his status, there must be many cars in the garage. It was just a car. Even if he was used to it, she didn't believe that he was the kind of person who had to have everything.
"I don't usually drive a car. I'm not sure if it has gas." Liang Feifan unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt. His voice was calm and emotionless. "Besides, I just said that it's my habit."
Bai Lu almost lost her temper. "Mr. Liang, just one day. Why don't you open the garage and let me choose a car?"
"I don't have a key." He went straight into the kitchen and poured a glass of water. As the host, he asked her very politely, "Are you thirsty after talking so much?"
"Mr. Liang …"
"Are you afraid that you can't go back? I have another plan for you to choose from. " Liang Feifan raised his eyebrows and pointed above. "This villa is not small. There are many rooms upstairs. You can choose one for the night and go to the auction site with me tomorrow."
"Mr. Liang, that's not very good, is it?" Bai Lu pursed her lips and frowned. "Aren't you making things difficult for me? I'm just your employee. If others find out that I'm living in my boss's house, they'll think that we … "
"Think that we what?" Liang Feifan's tall and slender body approached her silently. He put the glass of water in his hand on the coffee table, forcing Bai Lu to retreat. Leaning back on the sofa, he put his hands on both sides of her and looked at her with a half-smile. "What are you thinking? Do you think that I let you stay here because I have improper thoughts about you? Are you thinking too much, huh? Huh? "
Bai Lu's face flushed red.
This man was flirting with other people and saying things that made her heart beat faster, but he looked innocent and said that he didn't have improper thoughts about her at all …
Bai Lu felt that he was playing with her!
Was this very interesting?
Deep in her heart, there was a burning anger mixed with disappointment. She clenched her hands angrily and retorted loudly, "Am I thinking too much? If you think that I'm thinking too much, Mr. Liang … then, then don't say those ambiguous things to me, and don't get so close to me so often! That way, I won't think too much! Why are you … always like this? I'm just an ordinary woman. I have feelings and a heart too. I … "
"So you have feelings too."
Before Bai Lu could finish yelling, Liang Feifan slowly interrupted her.
The smile at the corners of his mouth seemed to deepen, and his enchanting eyes were instantly filled with dazzling starlight. It was so dazzling that she didn't dare to look directly at him. His voice was deep and rich. "Don't you understand why I'm doing this? Then I can give you some time to think about it carefully. When you understand, we can have a good talk. "
Seeing that she was tongue-tied and blushing, Liang Feifan's heart softened. His voice seemed to become gentler. "The guest room around the corner on the second floor. You can sleep there tonight."
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Bai Lu to react. He had already turned around, bent over, and picked up his glass of water from the coffee table. He took a sip and then went upstairs.
Bai Lu watched the tall figure disappear around the corner of the stairs, but she still hadn't completely recovered from her shock.
What did he just say?
"Don't you understand why I'm doing this? Then I can give you some time to think about it carefully. When you understand, we can have a good talk … "
…
Her brain was buzzing, and all the noise in her ears seemed to be retreating. In the end, the only thing left in the world was that deep and seductive voice in her ears and the sound of her heartbeat …
Bai Lu couldn't help but reach out and gently cover her chest. Then she slowly closed her eyes —
It was all real. His words were real. Her feelings were real …
But everything was so real. Why did she feel so dazed and unreal?
She didn't finish the sentence — I'm just an ordinary woman. I also have feelings and a heart. I don't want to, don't dare, and can't …
The corners of her mouth slowly curved into a bitter smile. Bai Lu took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions. Then she walked up to the second floor.
She couldn't go back tonight, and she didn't want to waste any more time. After all, there was a very important bid tomorrow.
She couldn't think about those unrealistic things right now. Liang Feifan was right. She couldn't just try her best. She had to win that project! …
In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the master bedroom, a man had one hand in his trouser pocket and the other hand holding a wine glass. The red wine in the glass swayed with his casual movements.
His phone rang, and he took it out of his pocket. "Did you get it?"
Guan Chao sounded a little troubled. "… Mr. Liang, the earliest is tomorrow evening. The attending doctor at XX Hospital didn't dare to give the patient's case in private. I went to the director, but the director just went to C City to attend a conference. He won't be back until tomorrow afternoon."
Liang Feifan replied, "Hmm." He paused and asked, "What's going on with Jingxiao?"
Liang Jingxiao suddenly joined EC's design department. Liang Feifan didn't know about this at all, but he could roughly guess that it must have been arranged by his father at the headquarters of the Liang Clan.
"Mr. Liang, I'm very sorry about this. Chairman Liang personally gave the order. It was very sudden, so I didn't have time to inform you. Miss Liang has already been assigned."
Liang Feifan reached out and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Get someone to keep an eye on her. She's pregnant now, and she's getting married in a few days. Don't let anything happen to her."
Liang Feifan naturally knew that Liang Jingxiao joined EC's design department specifically. More or less, it must have something to do with Bai Lu.
However, she was still his biological sister. If she knew her place, she could learn a lot in the design department, and he wouldn't be too opposed to her coming to work …
Bai Lu was a little picky about her bed, so she didn't sleep very well that night. In the middle of the night, she repeatedly woke up a few times. The next day, before seven o 'clock, she was already wide awake, but she was still very tired.
She simply washed up, but she didn't have any clothes to change into. She kept feeling uncomfortable all over.
When she left the room and went downstairs, she realized that Liang Feifan was already up.
He was sitting in the dining room eating breakfast. He looked refreshed, so he must have had a good rest last night.
"Have some breakfast. We'll go directly to the auction site later." Liang Feifan heard footsteps, but he didn't raise his head. He just shook the newspaper in his hand.
Bai Lu knew that she had no other choice. Today, she would definitely have to take his car to the auction site. Fortunately, she didn't have to go directly to the company. In any case, no other employees would see her at the auction site. Plus, she was representing EC, so even if she took his car, there wouldn't be too much of a problem.
After comforting herself like this, she felt much better. She sat down gracefully. A servant helped her prepare breakfast and brought it up. She thanked them and quietly began to eat.
The two of them didn't say much at the table. Liang Feifan seemed to be concentrating on the newspaper in his hand. Bai Lu, on the other hand, was thinking about the auction site later.
