Chapter 238: It’s a miracle

Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

This man, himself spent the first half of his life to love …
She was completely unsure if she could really forget him for the rest of her life …
“What are you looking at?” He suddenly spoke up, lifting an eyebrow to look at her. The low voice, which was unusually sexy for the night, made Zoey’s heart leap. Embarrassed as if she had been caught doing something bad, she awkwardly averted her eyes and straightened the hair on her cheeks, “Nothing, I just didn’t think your design could be done so well.”
Seemingly because it was rare to hear her praise, Jerry Xiao hummed a little proudly. She gave her another glance, “Are you sure you were just looking at the design?” ! Do you want to ask so clearly?
Zoey blushed slightly and ignored his words, only to lower her head and continue to look at the pile of data.
Looking at her evasive look, Jerry Xiao hooked his lips and looked at her for a long time before suddenly asking, “Zoey Baker, did you do it with Sea Gu that night?”
There’s that problem again!
Zoey took a deep breath, gripped the pen in her hand, didn’t look up, and simply said, “President, this is my personal business!” . “I’m asking you, to do or not to do!” He stubbornly continued to ask, his voice low and dangerous.
Zoey looked up, his serious and obstinate look made her whole person froze for a moment.
In my heart, I missed a beat. The first thing you need to do is to ask yourself a question, and then you’ll think about it and say, “What about you, did you do it with my sister-in-law that night?”
As soon as her question came out, both of them froze.
Zoey wanted to bite her tongue right off.
Isn’t asking this question a clear way of telling him that she actually cares and cares about what happened between him and Nabi that night?
Jerry Xiao raised the tip of his eyebrow and gave her a meaningful look, “You care about this?”
“No.” Zoey retorted almost subconsciously. But the more he did, the more vain he seemed.
She lowered her head and held the pen to scratch out some erroneous data on the paper while saying, “Pretend I didn’t ask, you can not answer.”
Jerry Xiao curled his fingers on the paper in front of her and reminded her, “This data is right!”
Zoey looked down and saw that she had made a mistake, and admired his sharp eyes, and was ashamed of herself.
Quickly changed it, only to hear him say carelessly, “That night, we didn’t do it.”
Her hand, holding the pen, shook gently, holding her breath without looking up.
“Even if you didn’t show up, I couldn’t have touched her that night.” Jerry Xiao tried his best to make the words sound less like an explanation and just a calm narrative.
“Why?” Zoey looked up.
“It’s simple. Because she has a husband! And I, for one, am not interested in being a third party.” He spread his hands and looked at Zoey .
Zoey’s expression clearly floated and seemed to brighten up a lot. He pulled his lips and added coolly, “But she’ll be divorced soon!”
Fruity …
Her complexion quickly darkened and she opened her mouth, even her voice was astringent, “Yes, I will definitely bless you guys for my brother when the time comes.”
“Zoey Baker, you’re jealous!” He looked at her with certainty, his night-like pupils narrowed slightly, dangerously enough to make Zoey’s mouth go dry.
“I didn’t!” She retorted, almost subconsciously.
He stared at her meaningfully for a long time, as if to identify the truth in her words, half a long time, before changing the subject, “Now, it’s your turn to answer my question! That night, you and Sea Gu …”
He didn’t go on, just waited for Zoey to answer.
Zoey tightened her grip on the end of her pen, and her thin fingertips turned pale, “You never thought I was a very casual and messy person with a private life. To put it bluntly, in your eyes, I’m just a woman who can be used as a husband. So, the answer to this question is in the end how, to the president does not matter at all. You have prepared an answer for me in your heart long ago!”
Her words were filled with aggression and accusations of wrongdoing against him.
Jerry Xiao shuddered slightly in his heart, looked at her flashing pupils and repeated, “Tell me the answer. That night, were you not together at all?” . Subconsciously, he was expecting an answer of what kind, he knew very well. But …
Instead, she replied, “No, we were together the whole time that night.”
His expression, all of a sudden, darkened.
The thin lips moved, wanting to say something, but only felt that the mouth of the throat was blocked by something general, so stuffy that he could not say a word.
Glaring at her heavily, he suddenly dropped the pen and ruler in his hand in annoyance and got up to leave.
Zoey’s voice rang out behind her, “Would you believe me if I said that we were just talking that night and didn’t do anything?”
Jerry Xiao’s movements stalled.
Turning back, he gazed at her.
She continued, “We didn’t do anything, we just drank all night.”
Jerry Xiao raised his eyebrows.
To be honest, after drinking is the easiest way to mess up sex. Especially, a man and a woman in a hotel, and Sea Gu is never a decent man, if the two still sleep in the same bed, and nothing happened, it is a miracle to say.
However, Jerry Xiao somehow believed in the existence of this miracle.
The breath that was blocked in the chest seemed to be smoothed out all of a sudden.
The corners of his lips lifted slightly, and did not go away, but instead folded back to continue drawing.
He, who believed in himself!
This is very comforting to Zoey’s heart. She quietly hooked her lips, looked at the time, it was already very late, originally wanted to pack up, but he opened his mouth to stay: “Stay a little longer, stay with me to finish revising the lines over here.”
His tone, also not as hard as before, seems to have added continued gentleness.
In the quiet of the night, it is particularly moving and tantalizing.
Unable to refuse, Zoey sat back quietly, glanced at him quietly, and deliberately asked, “Now that you know that Ingram and I don’t have that kind of relationship at all, are you sorry you gave me this case?”
Jerry Xiao was in a good mood and looked at her half-heartedly, “Yes, I regret it! If I leave it to someone familiar, I don’t have to follow you to suffer over here.”
“This is a lesson for your reckless use of people.” Zoey is in a better mood, and her smile haloes into her eyes, very moving in the light, and for a moment, makes Jerry Xiao lose his eyes.
The surrounding atmosphere, without the previous cold, but on the contrary, there is a lot more unspeakable warmth.
The flickering of his eyes made Zoey’s chest tingle. Smoothing out her hair, she stood up, “I’ll go get you another glass of milk, did you finish the one you just had?”
“Hmm.” He nodded, and although his mouth was annoyed with her for making her own way, he seemed to have taken to drinking the milk clean.
She smiles with satisfaction and turns to walk out of the conference room.

The pantry, where she was the only one, was quiet.
There was a cold wind blowing outside the window, and Zoey looked at the traffic and neon lights, and it was a different kind of feeling than before.
It turns out that nothing happened between him and Nabi that night.
So is it possible that he really drove out to find himself that night in the pouring rain?
She punched herself in the head, why think so much? Never thought he would fall in love with himself as a possibility, so it doesn’t matter anyway, just hope, in his mind, she’s not too bad a person, so, that’s good!
After brewing milk and going back to the conference room, he was still working on his painting.
Zoey didn’t dare to interrupt, just gently set the milk aside and buried her head in her data.
This night was surprisingly good …

When the painting was done and he looked up, she was already asleep on the table.
Under the body, the paper has not yet had time to dry the handwriting, just printed on half of her face, black paste bad look, Jerry Xiao surprisingly feel a kind of indescribable cute … she slept too much like a feasting child, even the eyelashes have not flapped.
This time, it seems, she really is overtired!
Jerry Xiao rose gently, walked around to her side, leaned over the conference table, and gazed deeply at her with sunken eyes.
Even the strange sentiment that permeates the eyes is not even noticeable to himself.
He took off his jacket and bent over to drape it over her. As soon as he bent his head, he was able to see her too good spring light under her loose T-shirt.
Like seaweed-like hair spread out, her elegant neck was exposed like a swan.
The beautiful clothing was pure white, lining the roundness of her breasts with more and more white, almost glowing in the shadows of the light with a clear sheen. From his angle, he could faintly see the beautiful gesture of the red plum.
The large palm holding the clothes stiffened.
He looked away, his mind wandered back to the last dinner party where she wore that gown in a seductive way. … A hot current rushed downward. His body immediately reacted.
Damn it!
The one time with Nabi, he wasn’t like that either.
As if, this stupid woman can always easily tickle the desire inside him.
Zoey is still asleep, naturally he does not know what he is suffering at the moment.
Once her shoulders were warm, she gave a contented cry and unconsciously turned sideways as her jacket slipped off again.
That dazed wooing was a deadly invitation to Jerry Xiao at the moment.
The deep pupils stared at the small, unaware face, the mind moved, he held her small face with both hands, opened his lips and kissed her lips.
Not long ago in the elevator, already kissed.
But that time was so angry that he didn’t have the heart to taste that kiss, let alone taste her taste. This time, he could savor her sweetness and he could not be that flustered.
So, he kissed with fervor, but in a delicate and gentle way, as if a moist willow branch brushed his heart, and like a flame heavily crushed Zoey’s lips and tongue.
