Chapter 552: Chapter 581: Taking the Kids? (Second Update)
"Are these two people against me?" Lin Xi thought to himself, as he walked forward.
The person who had just warned Lin Xi now looked at Xiaoyi with satisfaction, "Manager Xi, don’t worry, with us here, that hooligan won’t dare do anything!"
"See, he’s already left!"
The other person also nodded, "Hooligans these days have no guts."
"If you encounter this kind of person again, Manager Xi, just curse them out directly!"
"Such people will leave after being scolded. If you don’t scold them, they’re likely to push their luck."
Xiaoyi finally realized that it was indeed a misunderstanding.
So, with a slightly awkward expression, she was about to say something, but just as she managed a "Uh, you guys," she was interrupted by the two others, filled with a sense of justice.
"Manager Xi, there’s no need for you to thank us, we always detest evil!"
The other person chimed in, "Even if that guy came in, the two of us would absolutely make sure he leaves lying down."
Xiaoyi really didn’t know what to say now; these two people were overly enthusiastic.
At this point, she had no choice but to point behind them to have them take a look.
The two immediately seemed to understand, and ’whoosh’, stood up, turned around to see the young man they had been talking about earlier was walking towards them.
At this moment, they were still somewhat tense. Even though they were middle-aged, their bodies had long been hollowed out by wine and women. If the young man wanted to make a move, they really might not be able to beat him.
But at this moment, they couldn’t admit defeat either, so just as they were ready to roll up their sleeves to fight, the young man ignored them and walked right past them, standing in front of Xiaoyi with his back to them, saying cheerfully,
"Sister Xi, what a coincidence!"
Xiaoyi turned her head, showing a complaining little-woman expression.
"......" The two standing men suddenly felt bewildered, wondering what the heck was going on?
Turns out they were just like monkeys in a circus, making fools of themselves, how embarrassing!
So the next moment, the two quickly apologized, saying that they were sorry, it was all a misunderstanding, but Lin Xi completely ignored them.
This made the two feel somewhat unhappy inside, but they didn’t dare to show it, since this person knew Xiaoyi.
After the two signed off, they immediately left the café in a hurry.
Actually, if those two had known that the young man they had just cursed was the reason everyone either feared or tried to please Xiaoyi, they probably would have been scared into fainting.
You see, last time when someone tried to make unwelcome advances towards Xiaoyi, their overall strength was much greater than those two, but still ended up admitting defeat like a grandson obediently.
After the two left, Lin Xi sat across from Xiaoyi.
"What’s up, Sister Xi, you’re mad at me?" Lin Xi asked again.
At this point, Xiaoyi turned her head without a friendly expression and replied, "I don’t even know you, why would I be mad at you?"
Alright!
She must still be angry!
Lin Xi had no choice but to explain, "Sister Xi, it’s really not my fault!"
"You must know, I wasn’t the one deceiving you that day, I was always passive!"
"So, it’s really not my fault..."
Upon hearing Lin Xi’s words, Xiaoyi immediately got angry, "Then you’re saying it’s all my fault?"
"Why didn’t you explain anything for the entire afternoon and evening?"
"You even kept deceiving me until you left, making me waste a breakfast specially prepared for you the next day!"
Lin Xi was amused but realized quickly that discussing logic with women was a very unwise move; no matter whether you have an argument or not, you definitely shouldn’t argue!
Because you’re bound to lose.
So he didn’t explain further and instead said, "Sister Xi, let’s not go on, it’s all my fault."
"Come on, give me a kiss!"
Seeing Lin Xi shamelessly leaning his head over as if to plant a kiss on her face, she dodged aside.
Of course, Lin Xi wasn’t really going for a kiss, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to dodge, or have had time to react.
"Alright, this time you’re forgiven!" Xiaoyi looked at Lin Xi with disdain, "But tell me, why were you at our marketing department that day, or rather, how did you get into our Emmy International?"
"Don’t tell me you’re one of our employees. I’ve checked, and there’s really no one like you in our company!"
Faced with Xiaoyi’s questioning, he didn’t reply immediately but instead called the waiter.
When a male waiter walked over, Lin Xi said, "Bring me a cup of Longjing tea!"
The male waiter was quite handsome, and hearing Lin Xi’s request for tea, he frowned slightly. If it weren’t for Xiaoyi on the other side, he would have turned around and left.
"Sorry, we only sell coffee here!" he shook his head and explained.
Lin Xi sighed, "Other places that don’t specialize in drinks have tea, and you who specialize in drinks don’t have tea? Bad review!"
"......" waiter.
"......" Xiaoyi suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
"If there’s no tea, just bring me a cup of warm water!" Seeing the waiter not moving, Lin Xi frowned, "What are you standing there for, hurry up and go!"
After the waiter left with an unpleasant expression, Xiaoyi heard Lin Xi speaking again, "Clearly, our Chinese tea is the best beverage, but young people these days prefer foreign coffee instead!"
"Really don’t know if it’s pretentiousness or trendy, their minds are so twisted!"
Xiaoyi happened to pick up a cup of coffee, and hearing Lin Xi’s words, her expression turned a bit dark.
Noticing this, Lin Xi quickly said, "Sister Xi, don’t misunderstand, of course, I’m not talking about you."
Xiaoyi coldly snorted, and after the waiter brought over a cup of warm water, she also said, "Bring me a cup of warm water too!"
The waiter froze again, nodded, and walked away.
When the waiter brought another cup of warm water, he glanced at both of them with a strange look, as if to say, "Are you two not normal?"
At this moment, after drinking a glass of water, Xiaoyi looked at Lin Xi, "Don’t change the topic, quickly answer the question I asked."
Lin Xi smiled, "I’m indeed not an employee of your company!"
Xiaoyi continued to glare at Lin Xi. She knew that without him saying.
"Actually, I’m your President Bai’s boyfriend, and I was there to see her that day!" Lin Xi didn’t hide and told Xiaoyi.
Xiaoyi, "......"
After a while, she sighed, "If you don’t want to say, that’s fine, but using such a fake excuse, clearly all men in this world are deceitful!"
"Not one good thing!"
"......" Lin Xi, after a few seconds, seriously explained, "Sister Xi, I’m really not lying to you, I swear!"
Xiaoyi didn’t continue to dwell on this issue, because she was too lazy to figure out what exactly Lin Xi was up to. As for him being President Bai’s boyfriend, she completely didn’t believe it.
It’s well known that their President Bai is such a beautiful person, with such status, and has never had any scandals.
Of course, she wasn’t looking down on Lin Xi, she just couldn’t connect the two and thought Lin Xi was boasting, likely wanting to fool her.
After drinking the warm water, she looked at Lin Xi again, "Do you have some time later?"
"Yes!" Lin Xi immediately replied, thinking Xiaoyi was going to ask him out?
"Good, I’m quite busy at the company today, probably won’t be back until eight!" She said happily, "It’s the weekend today, and Xixi finishes school early, so please pick her up for me."
"By the way, if you feel early, you can take Baby out for some fun. She’s been asking about you lately anyway."
"Taking care of a child?" Lin Xi was stunned.
"You’re unwilling?" Xiaoyi asked in return, "If you’re unwilling, then I’ll let the baby stay longer at school!"
"No need, I’ll go pick her up!" Lin Xi said.
After all, last time he was the one constantly deceiving Xiaoyi and didn’t explain afterward, so he felt a bit guilty.
Plus, Xixi isn’t a troublesome kid, she’s very cute and beautiful!
