Chapter 614: Now She Had Someone to Depend On
When he returned to the bedroom, Qiao Mu was nowhere to be seen.
In the middle of the night, this little thing was not sleeping in bed. Where did it
Li Yan stood in the corridor and saw a glimmer of light in the study. He walked over and pushed open the door. He was about to teach the little one a lesson for staying up late to work, but he saw her petite body lying on the desk and sleeping.
His handsome brows furrowed, and his movements lightened. He walked to Qiao Mu’s side and gently placed her in his embrace. Just as he lifted her up, the little woman in his embrace grunted and opened her eyes with narrowed eyes.
“Uncle, you’re back.” Qiao Mu raised her head and saw that it was Li Yan. She tilted her head and leaned against his chest.
“Why aren’t you in bed? Why are you sleeping here?” Although Li Yan’s tone was very light, it carried a hint of blame.
Qiao Mu blurted out her answer almost the moment he finished speaking, ” I’m waiting for you. ‘
Li Yan’s heart softened. Then, he saw the little thing raise her hand in front of him.
“Uncle, give me a kiss.”
Li Yan’s lips curled up. It was rare for the little one to take the initiative to ask for a kiss.
He placed her under the blanket and lowered his head to kiss her lips. The next second, she pushed him away.
“No, I want you to kiss my hand.”
As she spoke, Qiao Mu brought the back of her hand to Li Yan’s mouth. Although Li Yan did not understand what was going on, he still kissed her.
“Kiss me again.”
Li Yan did as he was told.
After the kiss, Qiao Mu’s small face broke into a smile. She reached her hand into Li Yan’s clothes and rubbed it a few times before hugging his waist. ” I’m sleepy. Let’s sleep. ‘
Li Yan was speechless.
Li Yan held her hand and sized it up. ” What’s wrong? ”
Qiao Mu wanted to complain to Li Yan, but if this man found out that she had been taken advantage of, who knew what kind of trouble he would cause?
Moreover, if she had to find him to solve such a small matter, she would really become a rice worm that relied completely on him.
Ye Nuan was right. This industry was very dark. When she officially stepped into the fashion industry, there would be a lot of trouble. She couldn’t rely on Li Yan for everything.
With that thought, Qiao Mu snuggled into Li Yan’s embrace and shook her head. ” It’s alright, Uncle. Let’s sleep. ‘
Li Yan did not ask further when he saw the little woman laughing so heartlessly. He only reminded her,”lf you encounter anything that you can’t solve, leave it all to me.”
Qiao Mu’s heart felt warm. ” Don’t worry, Uncle. I can resolve these small
matters. If I really encounter something big, I’ll tell you without holding back. ‘
As long as this man was around, she was not afraid of trouble. Even if she could not solve it, she had him.
Now, she had someone to rely on.
The corners of Li Yan’s lips curled up. Although he wanted to protect her in his arms at all times, he also wanted to satisfy her desire to be independent. Actually, watching this little woman grow up bit by bit was also a kind of happiness.
After that, Qiao Mu buried herself in her own matters and did not interact with anyone else. She also made an excuse not to attend the meeting of the team members that was temporarily formed for the sake of the new autumn product.
However, they worked in the same department after all. How could they not have interacted?
Key called Qiao Mu to his office upstairs. Qiao Mu entered the elevator and bumped into Chen Ou inside.
Chen Ou wasn’t the only one in the elevator. There were also two other staff members. Qiao Mu stood in the corner, keeping a distance from Chen Ou.
Qiao Mu wanted to go to the ninth floor, but the elevator stopped at the seventh floor. Someone pushed a delivery cart in, and at this moment, Chen Ou came over and placed a hand behind Qiao Mu’s back. He kindly said, “Qiao Mu, stand over here. Don’t block the car.. “
