She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

"Is it okay?"

With his breath suffocated, Huo Xibai froze in place, unable to move. This was the first time that Meng Xia took the initiative while sober except for that time when he was drunk -

Even if they just touched his face, even if they had done more intimate things, he had always been the one taking the initiative, while Meng Xia was almost always the one who passively suffered, and almost never even responded.

Huo Xibai almost clenched his fists before he could barely suppress his inner excitement. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "That's it?"

"..."

Of course Meng Xia knew what Huo Xibai meant, but...

Seeing her suddenly lowering her eyes, Huo Xibai thought he was getting too close and was about to take a step back. Unexpectedly, Meng Xia suddenly grabbed his collar and forced him to lean over. At the same time, he stood up on tiptoes and came closer——

The moment their lips touched each other, Huo Xibai's heart trembled. Before he could react, Meng Xia had already let go of him, "That's okay... um!"

Before she finished speaking, Huo Xibai had already clasped her neck, leaned over and kissed her. Unlike Meng Xia's casual kiss just now, the man's kiss fell like a storm, urgent and fast.

Meng Xia couldn't react in time and could only huddle in his arms and endure it silently...

-

The next day, Meng Xia went to the set. Huo Xibai drove him there. He happened to bump into Wen Yingying and teased him a few words, "I thought you were reluctant to send her here?"

"I also thought that anyone with any sense would not ask her to join the team at this time."

Naturally, Huo Xibai didn't care. He hugged Meng Xia and showed off his affection, which made Meng Xia blush. While pushing Huo Xibai to leave quickly and not to disturb her work, he turned around and apologized to Wen Yingying.

"What does it have to do with you that he's arrogant? You've only been together for a short time, and why are you so quick to defend yourself?"

Wen Yingying stared at her teasingly, and Meng Xia had no choice but to explain, "No, I just hope to separate work and life."

"I don't know why Miss Wen gave me this job, but I cherish this opportunity very much. I also hope that you choose me because I am qualified, not because I am Huo Xibai's girlfriend."

It seemed that I hadn't heard such an innocent statement for a long time, especially just a second ago, Huo Xibai was still sending her a message, asking her to find any reason to fire her.

After only being stunned for two seconds, Wen Yingying chuckled nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry, with me, your relationship with Huo Xibai will not provide any convenience for your work."

"Thank you, Miss Wen."

Feeling happy, Meng Xia turned around and was about to leave, then stopped as if remembering something, then took out a box of things from her bag and handed it over hesitantly——

"This is a snack I made at home. If Miss Wen doesn't mind it, you can try it."

After that, without waiting for Wen Yingying to reach out to take it, she put down her things and ran away, leaving Wen Yingying staring at her back in a daze.

I casually opened the box and took a look. Inside were exquisitely shaped biscuits, which should be very popular with children.

Suddenly thinking of something, Wen Yingying's eyebrows were filled with tenderness. She picked up a small biscuit and threw it into her mouth. The taste was surprisingly good -

Crispy and fragrant, a little sweet but not too greasy.

Huo Xibai really found a treasure...

Glancing at the message just sent by the man, Wen Yingying sneered slightly, threw the phone on the table, and did not reply.
