Chapter 20
This voice sounded familiar.
Xie Xuan squinted his eyes and turned his head to see Little Marshmallow standing just a step away from him.
She was stunning upfront and her side profile even more exquisite.
Xie Xuan openly let his gaze travel from her forehead, eyes, nose, all the way down until it rested on her pretty pink lips.
As perceptive as Lu Haiqiao was, she had noticed Xie Xuan looking at her from a distance. So, before he could withdraw his gaze, she turned her head.
Just like that. Their eyes met.
The young girl’s eyes were bright and her features delicate, with long, curly eyelashes that fluttered.
Lu Haiqiao’s expression revealed no hint of embarrassment or shyness. Meeting Xie Xuan’s direct gaze, she initiated a greeting, “Hello, nice to see you again.”
There was an underlying message in her words.
He put down the Rubik’s Cube in his hand and glanced towards the cafe’s entrance. “You have an appointment today as well?”
Lu Haiqiao smiled faintly, “No, I’m alone.”
At this moment, the iced Americano that Big Xie personally prepared was placed on the pickup counter. “Order number 133.”
“Yours?” Xie Xuan asked.
Her receipt clearly showed the number ‘133’.
She nodded. “Yes.”
Xie Xuan picked up the paper bag containing the iced Americano and then handed her a straw and two tissues.
His hands were very beautiful, with well-maintained and clean nails, and his fingers were fair and slender.
A bright red rope bracelet on his wrist stood out prominently.
It was this hand that had thrown three darts at the bar yesterday.
Lu Haiqiao stared at his hand for a moment and then pulled out her phone while taking the paper bag. “Can I add you on WeChat?”
Although Big Xie was busy, his attention was consistently on Lu Haiqiao.
Particularly when he heard her ask, “Do you have WeChat?” his gaze toward her became not only inquisitive but also somewhat cautious.
The three of them were not just tasked with completing the mission assigned by their boss; their primary duty was to ensure their boss’s safety.
So, Big Xie picked up the cafe owner’s WeChat QR code displayed on the counter and said, “Miss, if you need anything, you can add the cafe’s We…”
Lu Haiqiao seemed to ignore Big Xie’s words, staring at Xie Xuan’s abyss-like black eyes. “Yours.”
Big Xie, who was ignored. “…”
Not going to give it, for sure.
Considering the boss’s personality, being able to exchange a few words with her was already a great honor.
Xie Xuan looked deeply at her and then lowered his gaze.
—— Can I add you on Wechat?
—— Yours.
This Little Marshmallow sure was bold.
Xie Xuan stood up straight and calmly extended his hand to her. “Phone.”
Lu Haiqiao was momentarily stunned.
Xie Xuan added, “Yours.”
Recovering her senses, Lu Haiqiao lit up her phone, unlocked it, and opened the WeChat interface before handing it over to him.
Unexpectedly, Xie Xuan swiped his finger to exit WeChat and opened the dial pad.
He tapped on the screen using his thumb and finally hit the green call button at the bottom.
Shortly after, a strong vibration sounded.
Xie Xuan retrieved his phone, staring at the eleven-digit phone number flashing on the screen with a slight curl of his lips.
He handed Lu Haiqiao’s phone back to her and leaned slightly closer, “My WeChat is the same as my phone number.”
Big Xie, who had been observing the whole time: “…”
This guy, not only did he give her his WeChat, but also gave away his private number.
This slap in the face stung!
Lu Haiqiao took her phone and raised an eyebrow. “Thanks.”
