Chapter 1127: If I Said That I Don’t Want a Child?
Xiao Yi looked at the woman who was trapped in his arms. Her skin was fair with a red tinge, her eyes clear and looking at him unblinkingly, and he felt his heart soften.
His hands that were around her tightened its grip.
Her body was so soft he never wanted to let go. Burying his face into her neck, he smelled the faint fragrance in her hair. “Silly girl, how could I not want you?”
Xia Yanran held his waist and said, “What if I said that I don’t want to have children?”
Xiao Yi raised his head from her neck and looked at her. “Didn’t you say you want to have children with me? It’d be best if it’s a daughter and looks like you. Then I would have two princesses with me in the future.”
Xia Yanran looked at the expectant look in his eyes and felt a suffocating and miserable feeling in her heart. He was looking forward to having a child with her and if she told him that she could not have children with him, he would be very disappointed!
Xiao Yi looked at Xia Yanran who had her eyes lowered and was silent, and he rubbed his calloused fingers on her cheek. “If you don’t want to have children now, it’s fine if we wait another two years.”
“What if I don’t want to have children forever?”Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, his handsome and cold face tensed slightly. The fingers that were rubbing her face turned to pinching her. “You’re full of nonsense.”
Xia Yanran bit her lip, not knowing what to say.
The man’s thin lips came by her ear and his warm breath landed on her ear. Xia Yanran closed her eyes, letting him kiss…
Thoughts were running through her mind and Xia Yanran shivered when she thought of how there were still people from his company sitting in the living room, she pushed his shoulders. “Xiao Yi, you go out first… Mmh.”
Her unfinished words were blocked by the man’s lips. So Xia Yanran did not push him anymore and cooperated with his actions.
She was slightly afraid that if he knew the reason why she did not want to have children with him, he would not kiss her so deeply in the future.
…
In the living room.Those who had come for the meeting were the managers from several departments of the company. It had been several minutes since Xiao Yi had carried Xia Yanran into the room and seeing him not coming out yet, the managers started a whispered discussion.
“Young Master Tang, the woman CEO Xiao carried is his girlfriend, right? No wonder CEO Xiao isn’t interested in any other women, his girlfriend is so beautiful.”
“Well, I find CEO Xiao’s girlfriend looks slightly familiar. It seems like I’ve seen her before.”
“If those female colleagues who like CEO Xiao know that he has a girlfriend, they would be so sad!”
When Yi Ran, who was staring at her laptop screen, heard the marketing manager’s words, her expression changed slightly and she said softly, “It’d be better for us subordinates to not discuss CEO Xiao’s personal matters. But CEO Xiao and Sister Yanran really love each other. Usually when CEO Xiao works, he would want to sleep in the office. Now that Sister Yanran is here, he might even forget that we’re still having a meeting.”
Yi Ran’s words reminded Tang Chao of something.
They were still in the middle of a meeting and Brother Xiao ran towards Xia Yanran as soon as she came out of the room. Now, they could not even see his shadow anywhere.
He was usually not a person who did not make a clear distinction between public and private matters!
Tang Chao stood up from the sofa, his expression slightly strange. “Everybody hold on a minute. I’ll go call Brother Xiao.”…
When Xiao Yi and Xia Yanran were kissing passionately, there was a knock on the door.
Followed by Tang Chao’s voice. “Brother Xiao, everyone’s waiting!”
Xia Yanran suddenly became clear-headed and she pushed Xiao Yi, her cheeks red. “Oh my god, this is really embarrassing!” There were people waiting outside for Xiao Yi to continue the meeting, but he was still being intimate with her in the room. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if word got out?
Xiao Yi looked at Xia Yanran’s red face and kissed her two more times. “What’s there to be afraid of, kissing my woman? Okay, I’ll go out and finish the meeting. Wait for me in the room.”
Xia Yanran hummed in agreement.
Xiao Yi came out of the room, a smile on his face, looking gentle like a spring breeze had stroked his cheek.
The several managers could not help looking at one another. Xiao Yi was usually dignified and stable in the company. Who would have thought that he would have this side of him?
The several managers saw the change in Xiao Yi’s expression and Yi Ran naturally saw it too.
She was a girl so she was more meticulous. She noticed Xiao Yi’s lips were redder. It was obvious they had been kissing just now.Working under Xiao Yi, Yi Ran would understand him a little. He never said anything more to female colleagues, unless it was something related to work. Therefore, many female colleagues treated him as a highly eligible bachelor, and as his assistant, many of them would ask her about him.
And there were even some who had joked around during their free time that among the female colleagues in the company, Yi Ran was the only one worthy of CEO Xiao.
After Xiao Yi came back, the meeting continued without a hitch.
…
Xia Yanran stayed in the room for half an hour and when she heard the several managers leaving after the meeting, she came out from the room.
Xiao Yi was going to get up to call Xia Yanran, when Yi Ran took her laptop and sat beside Xiao Yi. “CEO Xiao, I wanted to discuss with you about a few doubts I have about the new ideas you have put forward during the meeting.”
Xiao Yi nodded when he heard her words and then told Xia Yanran, “I’ll be done soon. Wait a while more.”
Xia Yanran did an OK gesture to Xiao Yi.Instead of returning to the room, Xia Yanran sat on carpet in the living room, looking down at her phone.
Yi Ran used professional jargon in the construction industry when raising her questions and Xia Yanran did not understand it. She tilted her head and glanced at the two of them on the sofa.
When Xiao Yi was answering Yi Ran’s questions, he was serious and looked like a veteran.
Although she did not understand the construction industry, she could see that Xiao Yi was professional as Yi Ran was nodding away.
Xiao Yi talked for a while and because his cold had not recovered yet, his throat felt itchy and he coughed a few times. Xia Yanran wanted to get up and pour a cup of warm water for him, but Yi Ran was faster. “Oh, before the meeting, I forgot to pass the things I brought for you and Young Master Tang. Young Master Tang’s stomach doesn’t feel well so I made millet porridge. You have a cough, so I made stewed pear with rock sugar. I put loquat and fritillaria in it so it should be good for your cough.”
Yi Ran got up and went to the kitchen.
Xia Yanran saw Yi Ran’s thoughtfulness and she could not help thinking about herself. Although she had known Xiao Yi for ten years, her usual concern for him was not as thoughtful as Yi Ran.
After Yi Yan brought over the stewed pear with rock sugar, Xiao Yi put it aside and did not drink it. He continued discussing work matters with Yi Ran.
Xia Yanran also noticed Xiao Yi’s action. She got up and brought a cup of warm water to him. Xiao Yi took it and smiled at her before taking a sip. “I’ll be done right away.”
Xia Yanran nodded, her heart feeling bittersweet. Although he was somewhat of a male chauvinist, he was always paying attention to details when it came to men and women. In front of his girlfriend, he would never do anything to let her misunderstand.
