Night Fire Lingering

Is Chapter 387 okay? Hmm? Little Doctor?

Jiang Xing suddenly came to her senses and pushed Lou Qi away.

Several employees outside the elevator stood there dumbfounded when they saw this scene. Especially after seeing Lou Qi's face, they didn't know whether to go in or back. One of them even turned pale, fearing that he would be fired.

Jiang Xing looked up at the sky and down at the ground, his eyes darting around, wanting nothing more than to leave as soon as possible, but no one outside dared to come in.

A smile flickered in Lou Qi's eyes as he finally asked the person outside, "Shall we come in?"

Enter?

How could I dare to go in?

Everyone shook their heads frantically.

Finally, someone mustered up the courage to speak up: "Mr. Lou, please go first."

The elevator doors closed automatically.

Jiang Xing breathed a huge sigh of relief and couldn't help but glare at the culprit.

"We'll find out sooner or later," Lou Qi said calmly. "They wouldn't dare to talk nonsense."

Jiang Xing was speechless: "How could the boss hear employees gossiping about him? They all do it in secret."

"You're quite experienced, young professor," Lou Qi chuckled and asked, "Do you often gossip about your CEO, Mr. Gu?"

Jiang Xing had completely forgotten that this man was in cahoots with her boss. She pursed her lips and remained silent.

Lou Qi was in a good mood and, despite being ignored, still smiled and said, "I won't tell on you."

Jiang Xing left no room for doubt: "President Gu is strict with himself and lenient with others. I have never spoken ill of him."

"This person is praising someone so much that I don't even know who they are anymore."

"..."

On the way from the company to home, Lou Qi held Jiang Xing's hand, his thumb occasionally stroking her skin, seemingly innocent, yet also carrying a hint of lust.

"Are you hungry?" Lou Qi asked Jiang Xing.

Jiang Xing shook her head. She had afternoon tea with sweet soup and cake, so how could she be hungry?

Lou Qi was very satisfied with the result, and expressed his satisfaction the moment he opened the door—he grabbed Jiang Xing's waist, turned her around, and pressed her against the wall, kissing her eagerly.

"Well!"

Jiang Xing had no time to react or prepare, and clearly felt the man's suppressed impatience all the way.

Jiang Xing's body went limp uncontrollably, and she could only barely stand by relying on the man's arm for support.

"Is it alright? Hmm? Little Doctor?"

"Since you're not hungry, eat later."

"Give it to me, okay?"

As Lou Qi asked, his free hand had already slipped into the hem of Jiang Xing's shirt.

There were some things Jiang Xing felt like they were burning his tongue, but he had to say them anyway: "We...we've made up, haven't we?"

Since you've made up, then of course you can.

"Yes, we've made up." Lou Qi kissed her tenderly. "Even if we've made up, we still need to respect your wishes, right? Little Doctor, it wasn't easy for me to appease my girlfriend."

Jiang Xing couldn't help but chuckle, and as she chuckled, the man kissed her again.

"Hmm?" he urged her impatiently.

Jiang Xing asked him with a smile, "Why are you suddenly in such a good mood today?"

Lou Qi understood; she was asking why he had been so calm yesterday.

Was he calm?

He was clearly afraid of scaring away the rabbit he had just acquired.

Lou Qi became even more excited and couldn't resist rubbing against her.

“Because of you—” he paused, his voice becoming even lower and hoarse, “you encouraged me.”

Lou Qi's eyes were shining. He couldn't describe how happy and excited he was when he heard Gao Zhu report that Jiang Xing had directly mentioned his relationship with her in front of his employees that afternoon.

That was nothing short of a reward she gave him.

"So happy?" Jiang Xing couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Lou Qi said, "I would be even happier if you nodded now."
