"I've seen you work hard for two days. Have you found inspiration for your design? What style of work are you going to submit to the manager?" Shen Rui'an looked at her and asked with an extremely unnatural smile on her face.

Xia Yanxi raised her eyebrows, "Don't try to trick me, it's impossible for me to tell you about my work plans."

"Xia Yanxi, I was kind enough to communicate with you, but you actually talk to me with this attitude!" Shen Rui'an said angrily.

"You really just want to communicate with me, not to steal the fruits of my labor?" Xia Yanxi said leisurely.

"You!" Shen Rui'an was blocked by her words and could not refute.

Yesterday she heard a staff member of the personnel department reveal that the company executives were very optimistic about Xia Yanxi.

Although she is just an ordinary designer like herself now, if Xia Yanxi submits a refreshing work in this competition——

Thinking of the grievances between himself and her, Shen Rui'an was inexplicably flustered.

Xia Yanxi was too lazy to communicate with her, and was about to leave with a cup of hot coffee.

"Wait, I still have something to tell you... Ah!" Before Shen Rui'an finished speaking, her ankle seemed to be sprained, and her body fell heavily towards Xia Yanxi.

A sharp light flashed quickly in the girl's eyes, but when she was about to dodge, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed other colleagues passing by behind her.

Thinking that what she was holding was hot coffee, Xia Yanxi had no choice but to pour it in another direction.

"hiss--"

Because of the huge range of motion, the coffee in the cup spilled out and onto her arm, Xia Yanxi gasped in pain.

Shen Rui'an came prepared, but she didn't expect that Xia Yanxi would suddenly change her angle, and a lot of coffee was splashed on her arm.

"Ah!" she screamed in pain, "Xia Yanxi! Look at what you've done!"

Xia Yanxi stood up and rolled up her sleeves.

Because she was wearing a thin shirt today, the coffee quickly penetrated through the thin fabric and burned her arms red.

Shen Rui'an stood up, stared at her and said dissatisfiedly: "I didn't expect your heart to be so vicious. I just chatted with you kindly, but you did this to me!"

"Shen Rui'an, can you stop the villain from suing first!" Xia Yanxi went to wash her hands and soaked her arms in cold water, "If you didn't hit me on purpose just now, how could I have fallen?"

"I... I didn't do it on purpose." Shen Rui'an's eyes dodged a little, but seeing the red marks on Xia Yanxi's arm, she still felt happy in her heart, "Forget it, I won't bother with you anymore .”

Colleagues passing by couldn't stand it anymore, and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Miss Xia, she clearly did it on purpose."

Xia Yanxi smiled, "I know, but I don't want to worry about this kind of thing now."

In the company, there is no absolute right or wrong.

If she makes this matter too big and affects the normal order in the company, then the boss will definitely blame her.

After get off work, she went to the pharmacy to buy plasters, smeared them on her arms indiscriminately, and hurried to the public elementary school.

At this time, a black Hummer quietly followed her.

The man in the back seat looked at the bottle of plaster in her hand, and frowned deeply, "What is that?"

Zhao Bin took out a magnifying glass to study for a while, and reported to him: "Third Master, that is a plaster for healing the skin from burns."

As soon as the voice fell, a cold breath spread from the car immediately.

Feeling the oppressive low pressure emanating from him, Zhao Bin didn't even dare to vent his breath, "Master, I...I'll send someone to investigate now to see what happened to Miss Xia in the company."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but slander in his heart: I don't know who is so desperate that he even dares to touch Miss Xia!

The car followed her all the way to the gate of the public primary school before stopping...

Xia Yanxi found Xia Jinyuan at the school gate, and immediately asked, "Jin Yuan, how are you today?"

Xia Jinyuan nodded, "I'm fine, sister."

"Go home first." She held out her hand to him.

Xia Jinyuan also stretched out her hand, and her palm accidentally touched her arm.

There was a scorching tingling sensation from the scalded place again, Xia Yanxi frowned, her expression a little uncomfortable.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Xia Jinyuan realized something was wrong and asked worriedly.

"I accidentally got burned at work today, but it's just a trivial matter, so don't worry." She quickly calmed down and got on the bus with him.

The man in the car had a panoramic view of the scene just now.

The driver watched the bus that Xia Yanxi and the others got on leave, and asked Ji Beimu, "Master, do you still want to follow?"

"Follow." The man's thin lips parted slightly, his eyes dark.

The car followed Xia Yanxi's apartment and stopped near Xia Yanxi's apartment. Ji Beimu's slightly frowning brows relaxed after seeing the two of them enter the apartment safely.

Zhao Bin received a call from the company, and asked him cautiously: "Master, the director of the company's financial department said that there is an urgent document that you need to deal with..."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Beimu suddenly opened the car door and strode out with long legs.

The man walked forward without looking sideways, and all he could see in his mind was Xia Yanxi's uncomfortable expression after being touched by Xia Jinyuan on the arm just now at the school gate.

"Ding-dong-"

Xia Yanxi and Xia Jinyuan had just entered the room when the doorbell suddenly rang.

The two looked at each other with vigilance on their faces.

Since the Xia family went bankrupt, many relatives have cut off contact with them, so no one would come to them at ordinary times.

"I'll go take a look." Xia Yanxi walked to the door, cautiously looking outside through the cat's eyes.

When she saw that familiar face, her heart couldn't help but tremble.

The man probably guessed her actions, raised his head and said indifferently: "Open the door."

Xia Yanxi pursed her lips, and had no choice but to open the door, "Master, why are you here?"

"Give me your hand." Ji Beimu spread his palm towards her expressionlessly.

Xia Yanxi blinked, not understanding what he wanted to do for a while.

"Hurry up." Seeing that she didn't respond, the man urged.

"What do you want to do?" Xia Yanxi stretched out her hand.

Ji Beimu gently grabbed her wrist and rolled up her sleeves.

When he saw the shocking red mark on her fair arm, a cold light flashed in his eyes, as if a harbinger of a storm.

"Third Master?" Xia Yanxi didn't expect him to make such a move, and asked unexpectedly, "How do you know..."

"Who did it?" Ji Beimu raised his eyes, his voice was as cold as ice.

Xia Yanxi was about to speak when she remembered how different their identities were now.

She sighed lightly, and changed her words: "I accidentally burned myself."
