Save me or save Adam?
The two men were still glaring at each other.
At this moment, Qiao Qiao passed a stack of documents to Adam and said, "Adam, I've finished reviewing these documents. Take them and release them."
Adam snapped out of his daze and kept the documents properly. "Yes."
Before he left, he gave He Shaochen a deep look. That look was definitely not friendly.
But He Shaochen didn't care at all!
After sending Adam away, only Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen were left in the huge office.
He Shaochen walked to Qiao Qiao's side and sat directly on the desk in front of her. His two legs were casually crossed, looking slender and straight. He reached out his long hand and lifted Qiao Qiao's chin as she was reading the documents. His tone had a hint of teasing. "Wretched girl, you're becoming more and more like a princess now. You actually dare to order me around, huh?"
Qiao Qiao slapped He Shaochen's hand away in annoyance. She glared at him and said, "If you weren't looking for trouble, would I have scolded you? No matter what, this is an office. People come and go. If you casually walk in and out, wouldn't it be bad if others saw it? It's very hard for me to step down, okay? "
Seeing that Qiao Qiao was still complaining, He Shaochen was furious. He pinched Qiao Qiao's face in revenge and pulled it to both sides. He said unhappily, "Who asked you to only know how to stay in the office all day? I can't find you all day long. If I don't come to your office, where else can I go? Do you think I'm very free all day long? He Shao has been very arrogant recently. I have to deal with him and then come to see you. Do you know that A Country and J Country are separated by an ocean? Do you think it's easy for me, huh? "
"You don't have to come. I didn't ask you to come to me every few days …" Before he could finish, He Shaochen suddenly tightened his grip.
"It hurts, it hurts …" Qiao Qiao quickly grabbed He Shaochen's hand. It hurt so much that tears came out.
He Shaochen let go of her when he saw that she was really in pain. He was furious. "Joe Qiao, you heartless girl. How could you say such things? Have you ever seen a couple who didn't see each other despite being so far apart? "
"There are so many long-distance relationships nowadays …" Qiao Qiao mumbled softly.
He Shaochen pretended to pinch her again. "Say that again?"
Qiaoqiao hurriedly covered her mouth and shook her head repeatedly. Her amber eyes blinked and were suffused with a layer of innocent expression, causing others to be unable to vent their anger.
He Shaochen coldly snorted and said unhappily, "How many long-distance relationships have you seen that have a result? Do you want us to be like that too? I've never seen you come to Country A to see me. I'm the one who comes to see you every time. In the end, you're nowhere to be seen all day long. When I come to your office, I have to face the attitude of an executive. I, He Shaochen, have never felt so aggrieved before! "
Qiaoqiao didn't feel anything at first, but after hearing what He Shaochen said, Qiaoqiao felt a little distressed.
She hurriedly came over to comfort him and held his arm. Her voice was soft. "I'm sorry, Shaochen. I've neglected you too much recently. Don't be angry."
"Ha." He Shaochen smiled coldly without any emotion. He turned his head away and ignored her.
Qiao Qiao thought for a moment and said, "You know that I have a lot of things to do here. The relatives of the royal family have been finding fault with me recently. I have to guard against Ravel and deal with official documents. I really can't find the time …"
"Ha ha."
She said it as if he had nothing to do every day. He Shaochen snorted when he still found time to look for her.
Seeing that He Shaochen was really angry, Qiao Qiao gritted her teeth and said, "Alright then! I'll free up my time and look for you once a week, okay? "
He Shaochen suddenly turned around and said, "Forget it."
Qiao Qiao was speechless.
This person was deliberately finding fault with her, wasn't he?
Just as she was about to flare up, He Shaochen sighed and said, "With your muddle-headed personality, if you were to be ambushed, I wouldn't even be able to save you in time. It's better for me to look for you in case something happens again."
"Hehe, isn't that right?"
Qiao Qiao agreed. The speed at which he changed his attitude was amazing.
He Shaochen narrowed his eyes. He suspected that Qiao Qiao was deliberately digging a hole for him to jump into. He said, "Don't think that I'm appeased just because of this."
"Then what else do you want?"
Qiao Qiao asked in return.
He Shaochen looked at her carefully. He pinched her chin and observed her carefully for a while as if he was inspecting an item. He said, "Why do I feel that you're getting thinner? There's no meat on your face. "
"It's probably just an illusion."
Qiao Qiao said casually.
"Huh?"
He Shaochen's voice rose. He didn't have to be angry to be imposing.
Under his coercion, Qiao Qiao had no choice but to tell him the truth. "I can't help it. I've been feeling very nauseous recently, so I can't eat. It's normal for me to lose weight."
"Is the morning sickness very serious?" He Shaochen's heart ached a little.
He remembered that the last time Qiao Qiao was pregnant, he didn't take care of her because of his cold illness. Was she like this when she was alone in the hospital? This time, because of their identities, he still couldn't stay by her side all the time.
For some reason, his chest felt a little stuffy.
Qiao Qiao saw that He Shaochen's brows were tightly knitted together. She squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay. I take vitamins and iron on time. My body is fine. After the doctor's examination, he said that the baby is very healthy. You don't have to worry."
He Shaochen secretly made a decision.
He suddenly grabbed Qiao Qiao's hand and pulled her outside.
Qiao Qiao was surprised and hurriedly said, "Shaochen, where are you taking me?"
"I've waited for you for so long. You have to make it up to me."
He Shaochen said firmly.
"Huh?"
Qiao Qiao was stunned. Did this person have to talk to himself like this?
"But I still have a lot of documents …"
"Isn't your CEO very capable? Why don't you just ask him to deal with them for you? "He Shaochen was always so willful.
Qiao Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I have a meeting this afternoon …"
"Cancel it."
Qiao Qiao. "…"
This person's ability to talk to himself had already reached the point of perfection.
He Shaochen had just walked out of the office with Qiao Qiao when they ran into Adam.
Seeing them like this, Adam narrowed his dark red eyes and looked at He Shaochen. "Mr. He, what are you doing?"
He Shaochen raised his chin and said arrogantly, "I'm taking my girlfriend out for some fresh air."
Adam's face immediately darkened. He took a step forward and blocked He Shaochen's path. He said coldly, "Mr. He, this is not A Country where you can do whatever you want! This is not an embassy either. This is the administrative office of Princess Lilith of J Country. Please stop your rude behavior! "
He Shaochen didn't want to waste time talking to him.
"Get out of my way!"
Adam was unmoved.
The two men's eyes met in the air and sparks flew.
Why did these two people act as if they had eaten gunpowder the moment they met?
Qiao Qiao's heart was about to break down.
She quickly intervened between the two of them to smooth things over. "Both of you, stop! This is a public place! "
"Qiao Qiao, don't waste time talking to him. Let's go." He Shaochen grabbed Qiao Qiao's hand.
Adam narrowed his eyes. "Mr. He, are you forcing me to use force?"
Adam's fighting ability wasn't something an ordinary person could resist. Qiao Qiao had experienced it firsthand during the explosion.
Qiao Qiao quickly stood in front of He Shaochen and said to Adam, "Adam, this is actually my idea. I've been too tired recently and I want to take a breather. Since He Shaochen is here, I want to go out with him for some fresh air. Please help me cancel the meeting this afternoon."
"Lilith?"
Adam didn't expect Qiao Qiao to be on He Shaochen's side. There was a hint of struggle in his eyes.
Qiao Qiao put her hands together and bowed. "Please, please. I just want to rest for half a day. Adam, can you make an exception?"
Adam was at his wit's end when it came to Qiao Qiao's pleas.
There was a hint of helplessness in his voice. "Lilith, have you been really tired recently?"
Qiao Qiao blinked and quickly pretended to be weak. "Yes, cough cough … I've been suffering from overwork lately …"
Adam was speechless.
"All right then." Adam compromised. He looked at her and said, "I'll help you deal with the rest of the documents and postpone the meeting. Is that okay?"
Qiao Qiao immediately beamed. "Adam, you're so nice."
With that, she pulled He Shaochen away.
Adam watched the two of them leave. Eve's words suddenly surfaced in his mind.
"Lilith will show more and more signs of rebellion … Your existence will be erased … Lilith will also be monitored by the rest of the organization …"
"D * mn it!"
Adam smashed his fist on the glass beside him, producing a squeaking sound. Several cracks had already appeared on the glass.
After dealing with Adam, Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen got into the car.
He Shaochen said unhappily, "Aren't you too obedient to Adam? Don't forget that you're the boss. He's just an executive! "
Tsk, tsk, tsk …
Why did it feel like there was a strong smell of jealousy in the car?
Qiao Qiao glanced at He Shaochen. As expected, his face darkened.
"Why are you so jealous?" Qiao Qiao asked.
He Shaochen narrowed his eyes.
"Qiao Qiao, I dare you to say that again."
"Hehe, it's true. Adam is my right-hand man. I will definitely protect his rights. What's more, he's doing it for my own good. I have no reason to go against him, right?"
"I don't like him!"
He Shaochen said bluntly.
Qiao Qiao nodded calmly. "Oh."
He Shaochen's heart was broken by this understatement. He turned around and said seriously, "Qiao Qiao, I'll only ask you one thing. If Adam and I fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?"
The corner of Qiaoqiao's mouth twitched. She was shocked by this question.
She immediately imagined a series of classic scenarios.
His girlfriend asked her boyfriend with tears in her eyes, "Would you save me or your mother?"
Damn it! What kind of cliche is this?
Qiao Qiao cursed in her heart ten thousand times, but she said, "Of course I would save you, my dear!"
Because Adam knew how to swim.
Qiao Qiao added in her heart.
However, the "girlish" Young Master He looked much better. He raised his eyebrows and said with satisfaction, "That's more like it."
Finally, it stopped.
Childish!
Qiao Qiao rolled her eyes in her heart.
He Shaochen took Qiao Qiao to the restaurant. The dishes here were the most traditional A Country dishes. He Shaochen ordered according to Qiao Qiao's preferences.
Perhaps it was because she was with the person she liked, but Qiao Qiao didn't feel nauseous.
When they walked out of the restaurant, she touched her belly and said with a smile, "Hold on tight, the baby is so obedient. It's much more obedient with Daddy around."
He Shaochen's eyes shone with a gentle light. He took Qiao Qiao's hand and said domineeringly, "Then I'll eat with you often in the future. If the little guy in your belly isn't obedient, I'll teach him a lesson!"
"Haha, okay!" Qiao Qiao was amused.
"Where are we going now?" Qiao Qiao asked when she saw that the car wasn't going back to the palace.
He Shaochen smiled and said, "There's a large-scale auction here today. I'll bring you to see the world."
"Tsk!"
Qiao Qiao didn't think much of it. She had seen all kinds of things.
But when she really got there, she realized how wrong she was!
This kind of large-scale auction could only be attended by people with prominent identities and large sums of money. Just entering the venue would require a strict inspection and identity verification.
