Take her to country A.
After Xia An 'an got the key to the study, she was nowhere to be found in the villa.
She seemed to want to finish all the books in the study in one go and would run to the study whenever she had time.
"Sir, the food is ready."
"Mm."
Si Lijue had just sat down when he saw Xia An 'an preparing to leave. He frowned and said, "Where are you going?"
"Ah?"
Xia An 'an turned around and asked, "Is there anything else, sir?"
"Sit down and eat with me."
"Uh, I've already eaten."
Xia An 'an stammered.
Si Lijue's face darkened. "Then sit down and eat with me!"
"Oh …"
Xia An 'an saw that Si Lijue seemed a little unhappy and didn't dare to provoke him, so she sat down. Since she had nothing to do, she picked up a bowl and said, "Sir, shall I get you a bowl of soup?"
"Mm."
Si Lijue took a sip. "It's not bad."
When Xia An 'an heard this, she smiled. "If you like it, I'll make it for you every day. Actually, this beef can also be fried. If you want to eat steak one day, I'll fry it for you. This beef is very tender and will definitely be delicious."
Xia An 'an described it vividly. Her words were always so moving and could give people endless fanciful thoughts.
Si Lijue couldn't deny that he liked the feeling of interacting with Xia An 'an. There was the warmth of a home. No matter how late it was, there was someone waiting for him. It was really nice.
Xia An 'an was a very considerate person. When she took care of people, she treated them like God. No one could find fault with her.
Even though Si Lijue had so many servants before, he felt that all of them couldn't compare to Xia An 'an.
She was just a little maid and was so ugly. But he didn't know when it started, but Si Lijue couldn't take his eyes off her.
"Where were you in such a hurry to go just now?"
Si Lijue pretended to ask casually.
"Ah?"
Xia An 'an didn't understand.
Si Lijue said, "Am I not? I saw that you were absent-minded. "
She had never been like this before.
Xia An 'an thought that Si Lijue was unhappy about her reading. She shrunk her neck and said carefully, "Sir, I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
"Hmm?"
"I still have a book that I haven't finished yet, so I've been worried about it. Just now, I wanted to read the rest of the book …"
So it was to read …
Si Lijue looked away. He thought that she wanted to escape because she felt uncomfortable by his side.
Shen Jianian's words from before had always bothered him.
"Don't you feel cold when you're with that ice cube?"
"I'm much more interesting than him."
…
It seemed that this woman did not take the brat's words to heart.
"What have you been reading recently? Tell me about it. "
Si Lijue said.
"Hmm?"
Xia An 'an laughed dryly. "The books I read are all very boring. Sir, you might not like them."
"Speak."
Si Lijue ordered domineeringly.
Xia An 'an had no choice but to tell Si Lijue about the plot of the book. At first, she was a little restrained, but who knew that Si Lijue had also read the book. The two of them had a common topic, so there was no restraint. The two of them discussed the plot together and whether or not they would have different opinions because of the characters in the story.
"It seems that you really like books."
Si Lijue was amused.
At first, he thought that Xia An 'an was just brushing him off by saying that she read books. Who knew that this girl had already read so many books.
Xia An 'an smiled. "I think that the stories in the books are very interesting. As long as I read a book, no matter how bad my mood is, it'll be better."
"Your parents must like to read a lot too, right?"
Si Lijue asked.
Xia An 'an thought about her foster mother. Every time she read a book, she would feel dizzy and nauseous. It was as if she was born with a grudge against books.
She couldn't help but laugh when she thought about her foster mother's expression when she saw a book.
"What are you laughing at?"
Xia An 'an said, "Then my parents must be an exception. She doesn't like to read at all. Every time she reads, it's as if she wants to die."
"Oh?"
Si Lijue made a single sound.
Xia An 'an saw Si Lijue's deep gaze and suddenly thought of something. She quickly changed the topic. "Sir, let's eat. Otherwise, the food will get cold."
"Okay."
Xia An 'an secretly glanced at Si Lijue. Seeing that he didn't pursue the matter, she heaved a sigh of relief.
…
Di Jue.
The new project that they had been preparing for a long time was successfully launched. In order to reward everyone, the company organized a three-day trip to Russia Island in Country A. Moreover, it was a five-star hotel chain. It was said that the people who stayed there were either rich or respectable. It was very common to meet rich businessmen when they went out.
When they heard this news, everyone was excited.
They always knew that Di Jue's benefits were good, but they didn't expect the boss to be so rich!
But while everyone was happy, they were also wondering if their CEO would go too.
"The CEO is so busy. Will he go with us?"
"It'll be great if the CEO goes. Maybe there will be a chance to spend some time alone."
"That's right."
…
"Bam!"
A stack of documents was placed heavily on the table.
"Quiet. It's working hours now. If you're so free, why don't you do the end of the month report first?"
A beautiful woman glanced at those people.
When they saw that it was the design director, Jiang Shi Xuan, they immediately stopped talking.
After a while, Jiang Shi Xuan took the design drawings and left. Those women then complained unhappily.
"She just got in through the back door. She's so arrogant."
"What can we do? Her father is a director of the company. Naturally, she has the power. "
"Hmph, who doesn't know that she likes the CEO? Who is she pretending to be so noble for? "
Jiang Shi Xuan walked to the CEO's office.
She lightly knocked on the door.
"Come in."
A cold voice came from inside the room.
Jiang Shi Xuan walked in and saw Si Lijue dealing with some documents. His face was cold and his handsome face was expressionless. He was like a perfect sculpture. Jiang Shi Xuan had loved Si Lijue for five years. She believed that her silent protection would be able to move this iceberg one day.
"CEO, this is my design drawings. Please take a look."
"Put it there."
Si Lijue said lightly.
After Jiang Shi Xuan put down the drawings, she mustered up her courage and asked, "CEO, will you participate in the company's activities?"
"I'm not interested in these activities."
Si Lijue's attitude was still cold. He didn't even raise his head.
"Is that so?"
Jiang Shi Xuan was a little disappointed, but she still tried her best. "CEO, it's important to strike a balance between work and rest. If you keep working, your body won't be able to take it. I heard that Russia Island in Country A is very beautiful. The weather is pleasant and there are many exotic customs. It's not good to be bored. I think it's good to go out and relax."
Jiang Shi Xuan's words made Si Lijue think of Xia An 'an.
That girl stayed at home every day. Although reading books was a good thing, wouldn't she become a bookworm if she continued like this? If she stayed at home all the time, it would definitely cause problems.
It would be good to take this opportunity to take her out for a breather. Russia Island's climate was pleasant. She would like it.
"I also heard that the sea there is very blue …"
Jiang Shi Xuan was still trying her best to persuade him, but she knew that there was little hope. Just as she was about to give up, Si Lijue said lightly, "Then I'll go to this activity too."
"Really?"
Jiang Shi Xuan was overjoyed. She thought that her persuasion was effective.
"Is there anything else?"
Si Lijue asked.
Jiang Shi Xuan shook her head. Her face was slightly red, but she was happy.
The CEO did have her in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to her request. Jiang Shi Xuan felt that her hopes were much higher. She stole a glance at Si Lijue's handsome face and said shyly, "I'll go out first, CEO."
"Okay."
