After asking, she lowered her head shyly, evading his expression as her two hands nervously clasped together.
A silent but unique atmosphere spread between the two, with one in the car and the other outside. The noise and commotion outside seemed to not affect them.
After a while, Yan Xu’s calm and emotionless voice emerged. “I am sorry. I already have plans.”
Hearing that, Leila Shen raised her head to look at him, full of unconcealed disappointment. “Ah, you are not free?”
Yan Xu nodded his head. “I am not free.”
“Leila Shen, are you trying to anger me?” sister Qing walked over and knocked heavily on Leila Shen’s head before smiling awkwardly at Yan Xu. “Yan Xu, apologies for taking up your time. I’ll take this kid back now.”
As she spoke, she went forth to knock Leila Shen’s head. “You kid…”
Suddenly, her hand stopped in mid-air as she looked at Leila Shen in astonishment.
Leila Shen was looking at her with teary eyes, giving off an extremely pitiful look.
sister Qing frowned. “Why? I didn’t use much strength, why is she crying?”
Yan Xu also saw Leila Shen crying. However, he merely glanced at her before closing the window and ordering the chauffer to drive off.
As the car slowly left, Leila Shen’s tears fell down her cheeks as she stared at the car departing.
“Is it very painful?” Seeing that she was upset, sister Qing was instantly flustered. She lifted her hand to caress Leila Shen’s head.
However, Leila Shen evaded her advances, which made sister Qing frown even more. “Leila Shen, are you throwing a tantrum?”
Leila Shen stared at her before wiping the tears from her face. She merely said “no” before walking to the van.
sister Qing was extremely confused for she knew not what this kid was up to.
…
“Mr. Yan, Miss is working overtime in the company. Do you want to find her directly or do you want to wait for another time?”
Riding shotgun, the assistant turned around to look at Yan Xu, who was sitting in the back seat.
Yan Xu was resting, leaning back in his seat. Hearing the words of his assistant, he opened his eyes slowly, a unique and deep gaze within them. He pondered for a while before opening his thin lips and saying, “Go directly to TEG News.”
“Yes,” the assistant responded before asking the chauffeur to turn around at the crossroads.
He had seen her in the crowd today. She had looked even prettier than in the photos. When he saw her, he realized that he could no longer fulfill his desires for her just by looking at her photos.
When he saw her, he had been filled with memories and emotions.
He had really missed her.
Right now, the Media Department of TEG News was well lit. Rosiley and Xiao Xu were working hard in front of their computers as they had to rush to publish the news compared to other media companies.
After the charity dinner, everyone was focused on the celebrities. However, Rosiley and her crew had a different focus.
They were focusing on the charity event.
Hence, they had to focus on writing up the news.
Rosiley felt herself going nuts. She was choosing from the photos she had taken at the scene.
Even though their focus was on the charity event, everyone still wanted to see celebrities’ red carpet shots. Regardless of the event, the most popular information would always be the outfits of the celebrities.
Hence, that would have to appear in the news.
Working in media, she could not miss out on such details.
However, as there were too many photos of too many celebrities, it was a tedious task to filter out the less impressive ones.
