"Looking for me?" A hint of confusion appeared in Li Weixi's eyes.
The next moment, she recalled what Tom had whispered in her ear. She couldn't help blushing and said hesitantly, "Did Mr. Tom say what it was about?"
"No, boss usually doesn't tell us anything."
"I see …" Li Weixi thought for a while and nodded. "Okay, take me there."
Although she shouldn't be alone with him, it wouldn't be good for her to avoid him if something really happened to him.
As the receptionist arrived at the office, Li Weixi suddenly wanted to back out, but the receptionist had already opened the door for her and Tom, who was sitting inside, saw her.
"Come in." Tom smiled and got up to welcome her. "Are you tired after watching me for so long?"
"No." Li Weixi shook her head and followed him in.
She glanced around and found that Tom's office was the same as his home. It was clean and simple in style and looked very comfortable at first glance.
There was black tea on the table and it was still steaming. Tom must have poured it for her at the right time.
Li Weixi's heart skipped a beat when she saw how attentive he was.
She picked up the hot black tea and blew at it. "Mr. Tom, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Nothing much. I just heard that you were kidnapped by Bai Sha, so I found a chance to find you today. I'm relieved to see that you are fine."
Tom's strange pupils were overflowing with radiance as his gaze locked onto Li Weixi.
Li Weixi clenched the teacup and looked away. "I see. Lina was protecting me at that time, so I was fine. Instead, she was injured."
"She deserved it. If she hadn't helped you, she would have been finished." Tom said disapprovingly. Li Weixi was a bit confused because he didn't have a good attitude towards Lina.
Tom had always been very gentle and rarely targeted someone like this.
Sensing the questioning look in the girl's eyes, Tom realized that he had lost his composure and laughed. "I'm sorry, I should've restrained myself. That woman and Pesha have done a lot of bad things in the past, and they've ruined my plans, so I don't like her."
"I see." Li Weixi answered softly. Although she was also curious about the plan, she knew her limits and didn't ask rashly.
However, this reminded her of another purpose for coming here. She deliberated for a moment and carefully worded her words. "Mr. Tom, I want to ask you a question. If one day I become your enemy and affect your very important plan, what will you do?"
"I will never do anything to hurt you." Tom said without hesitation. He looked very serious, and his tone was unprecedentedly serious. "I think no matter what I'm doing at that time, it's definitely not as important as you. At least, please believe me on this point."
"Ah, okay …" Li Weixi didn't expect him to be so serious. For a moment, she felt a bit panicked, as if she had been caught doing something wrong.
She really wanted to continue asking him why he was contacting Gu Ze.
However, she was too embarrassed to ask Tom, so she fell silent and wondered if she should believe him or not.
The girl couldn't hide her expression, which made Tom's heart sink.
Did she know about it too?
After thinking for a moment, Tom still didn't explain. He just repeated what he had just said. "Sissi, you must believe me. I won't hurt you."
"I already know." Li Weixi squeezed out a smile. Even though she still had some doubts in her heart, she didn't want Tom to know.
However, how could she hide her conflicted expression from Tom?
However, since she had already said so, Tom didn't want to force her too much, so he just took it that she believed him.
After sitting for a while and finishing the black tea in her cup, Li Weixi got up and said goodbye to Tom. She left the office and went to the front hall. She had been away for a long time. If Roman couldn't find her when she came back, would she think too much?
This thought did not make her very happy, because she knew that somewhere in her heart, there was a grudge against Roman that would not disappear.
When she returned to the hall, the project team walked back one after another.
Li Weixi glanced around and was relieved to see that Roman wasn't around. She walked over to a team member and asked casually, "Where's Sister Roman? Is she still in the lounge? "
"She went back first," Linlin said impatiently. Lin Lin took over the conversation and said impatiently, "She told me to tell you that you don't have to look for her anymore. Do as you please."
"Okay, thank you."
Lin Lin sneered and said in a strange tone, "What about you? Where have you been all this time? There's no one in the lounge and you just came back. Don't tell me you went to look for Mr. Tom just because you're close to him? "
Her voice wasn't soft, so her words attracted a lot of attention.
Li Weixi's gaze was evasive for a moment. She felt guilty and annoyed. She explained in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense."
Her weak appearance made Lin Lin even more arrogant. "You know very well whether I'm talking nonsense or not."
"I …"
"Lin Lin, stop talking nonsense. If you want to hook up with Tom, then fight for it yourself. Don't vent your anger on others just because you didn't get off to a good start," Ji Xi interrupted coldly, making Lin Lin's expression turn ugly.
She looked around and realized that the team members who were attracted to her at the beginning were all looking at her with evil intentions.
This made her very angry. However, Ji Xi was a manager and she didn't dare to offend her. She gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger. "You'll know whether I'm talking nonsense or not in the future." She then turned around and walked to a secluded place to stand by herself.
This small farce ended just like that. Li Weixi secretly heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Ji Xi. "Thank you."
"You're welcome. I'm just disciplining my team members. You're embarrassing TK by saying such things in someone else's shop." Ji Xi was as cold as usual. After saying this, she ignored Li Weixi.
However, Li Weixi was already used to her personality. She just smiled and said, "Thank you."
She was glad that Roman and Ji Xi didn't treat her as an enemy when they were fighting both openly and secretly. Their attitude was still the same as before.
After that, Tom didn't appear again. He only sent someone to say that he had something to deal with.
