BXBX NOVEL Chapter 234
Chapter 234: Chapter 234 he was still angry
At 10 o’clock at night, the last light of the Li Corporation’s conference building was finally extinguished. A group of high-level executives walked out of the conference room exhausted.
Li Jingran returned to his office with a slight frown.
The light was extinguished, and the only light in the room was from the floor-to-ceiling window.
The neon lights shone on the glass and refracted on the sofa in the corner. The light and shadow folded on the floor, leaving layers of marks.
On the dark gray sofa, Xu Wanwan was lying on her side. Her sleeping face was quiet and serene. Her long hair fell down casually, and her arms were curled up slightly as she hugged her body.
Li Jingran’s tired expression was slightly restrained. The moment he saw Xu Wanwan, his mood immediately became much better.
He strode over and half-squatted beside her, his eyes staring at the girl’s sleeping face.
It was very quiet when she fell asleep.
She was very obedient today, knowing that she had come to look for him.
Li Jingran’s thin lips curved slightly, and he raised his hand to gently stroke the hair on the side of Xu Wanwan’s face.
Secretary Lin happened to see this scene when she walked into the office. She was slightly stunned for a moment, and then recovered her indifferent expression. “Director Li, Miss Xu has been waiting for you here for a long time.”
“Yes.”Li Jingran did not even turn his head. His attention was completely on Xu Wanwan. “What’s the matter?”
“There’s a video conference at Eight o’clock Tomorrow Morning. I’ve already sorted out the detailed process,”secretary Lin said. She put the documents on the desk and left.
Li Jingran stared at the girl for a moment before he bent down and carried her in his arms.
In the car in the basement of the company, the driver had been waiting for a long time.
Xu Wanwan was carried into the car by the man. She was probably very tired and had slept soundly the whole way home. She did not feel anything at all.
When they reached home, Li Jingran bent down and picked her up again. After putting her on the bed, he took off his coat and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Wanwan vaguely heard the pitter-patter of water. She opened her heavy eyelids and stared blankly at the ceiling. After a few seconds, she instantly woke up.
Wasn’t she in the Li Corporation?
How did she come here?
A lot of questions had yet to be answered when the sound of the bathroom door opening reached her ears.
Subconsciously, Xu Wanwan looked towards the source of the sound.
Li Jingran walked out from a hazy fog. The man was naked and had a towel tied to his body.
The lights in the room were dazzling, and she could clearly see the man’s perfect figure. His muscles were neither exaggerated nor thin, and his well-proportioned figure was faintly discernible in the mist. The mermaid line extended all the way to his abdomen..
Xu Wanwan’s face turned red, and she instantly averted her gaze.
“You... why aren’t you wearing clothes!”
After she came back to her senses, she hid her head under the blanket and asked angrily.
She was already very angry today. Now that she saw the man acting like a hoodlum to her, the fire in her heart was ignited again.
Li Jingran’s thin lips slightly twitched as he slowly walked over. His black hair was still dripping with water, and his Adam’s apple and collarbone were still covered with water droplets.
“Why are you taking a shower and wearing clothes?”He looked at the ball of clothes that was tucked into the quilt with a faint smile.
Xu Wanwan took a deep breath and clenched her fists as she glared at the man. “You’re Shameless!”
“You’re shameless without clothes?”Li Jingran chuckled. He propped his hands on the bed and leaned in Xu Wanwan’s direction. “There’s something even more shameless. Do you want to see it?”
Xu Wanwan’s ears were so red that they could bleed. However, the man’s hoarse voice seemed to ring in her ears.
She could not help but shiver. She jumped off the bed, lifted the blanket on the bed, and pounced on the man.
Li Jingran’s body was covered with the blanket so that his upper body was not exposed.
This way, she would not be embarrassed.
Xu Wanwan hugged a pillow and stood in front of the man. She glared at him fiercely and only then did she realize her real intention of looking for him.
“Why did you plant a bug on me? Do you know that this is going too far?”
Li Jingran frowned. “What?”
Seeing that he was still playing dumb, Xu Wanwan became even angrier. “Stop pretending. I found a bug in my schoolbag. I’ve been staying at the Li family. Who else can get close to my schoolbag but you? !”
“I know you don’t trust me, but isn’t it too much for you to do this to me? I’m not a criminal, why would you do this to me?”
The more Xu Wanwan spoke, the angrier she got. She stood on the ground barefooted and clenched her fists tightly, as if she was venting her anger.
Li Jingran’s face darkened.
“A Bug?”His voice also turned cold. “You found a bug in your schoolbag, and you suspect that I did it?”
He understood what Xu Wanwan meant.
But he didn’t expect that she didn’t even have the most basic judgment and didn’t suspect anyone at all. Instead, she was the first to point the spear at him.
Xu Wanwan said confidently, “It’s not suspicion, it’s certainty! You’re the one who did this. I’ve already found the clues. You should quickly admit it.”
Other than Li Jingran, she could not think of a second person who had such a strong desire for control.
She almost did not suspect anyone else. The moment she discovered the eavesdropping device, Li Jingran’s cold and gloomy look when he was angry appeared in her mind.
“In your heart, am I such a despicable and shameless person?”
Li Jingran’s face was dark. He took a deep look at Xu Wanwan, trying to discern other emotions from her expression.
However, Xu Wanwan didn’t hesitate and said directly, “Other than you, no one else would do such a thing.”
Besides, who would be so bored as to eavesdrop on her?
She didn’t have any important secrets on her, nor did she have anything valuable. She didn’t have a reason to be eavesdropped on.
Li Jingran tilted his head and sneered. His lips curled into a mocking smile. “You don’t trust me that much?”
They had been together for a long time. His attitude toward others had never been reflected in her.
Now she had misunderstood him.
Xu Wanwan bit her lower lip. “I want to trust you, too, but what you’ve done to me is not worthy of my trust.”
Eavesdropping on her? What was that.
Even if he wanted to know where she was, he could do it openly.
Xu Wanwan was sulking. She did not notice that Li Jingran’s emotions had dropped to the freezing point.
“Xu Wanwan.”
The man’s voice was extremely cold as he called her name.
Xu Wanwan was slightly stunned. When she reacted, she looked unhappy.
Why was he acting even angrier than she was?
Who was the victim here?
Li Jingran looked at her with a deep gaze. “I’ll only explain it to you once. I Won’t do such a thing.”
Xu Wanwan furrowed her brows tightly. “Then do you have evidence to prove it?”
“You don’t believe me?”
“Since you don’t have evidence to prove yourself, why should I believe that you’re Innocent?”Xu Wanwan blurted out.
However, this unintentional sentence of hers was very hurtful to Li Jingran.
Xu Wanwan was still immersed in her own emotions when the man on the bed suddenly stood up, casually pulled on a shirt, put it on, and walked out of the door coldly.
Bang.
The door to the room was slammed shut, and an ear-piercing sound was heard.
Xu Wanwan was stunned on the spot. As she watched the man’s back leaving, her nose suddenly felt sore.
Was He angry?
But why was he angry?
She should be the one who should be angry.
Xu Wanwan stood where she was, feeling wronged. Her eyes were filled with warmth, and her tears flowed down like broken beads.
He was the one who didn’t trust her first, so why was he even more angry?
He didn’t even apologize, but he actually slammed the door and left. who was the unreasonable one?
