Chapter 24: What a Weird Request

In an instant, her wrist was released. Suddenly, Xiao Yu, who was sitting in the car, leaned over.

The two of them were very close. Without a second thought, Ye Yanxi got out of the car. But as soon as she stepped out, Xiao Yu got out too.

"President, take your time. You don't need to get out." Ye Yanxi quickly turned around and bowed respectfully as she spoke.

However, Xiao Yu ignored her. Under the dim light, it was hard to see his expression clearly. Ye Yanxi only felt his cold gaze sweep over her. Then, she watched as he strode straight towards the entrance of the residential community with his long legs.

Ye Yanxi stared at Xiao Yu's actions in disbelief, her mouth gaping in a circle as she looked at his back.

Uh, something seemed off. What did it mean that the president was walking towards the community where she lived? Before Ye Yanxi could think much, she quickly trotted to catch up with him. Unfortunately, his long - legged advantage was showing at this moment. Ye Yanxi had to run all the way just to keep up.

"Wait, President. Where are you going?"

At this moment, the two of them entered the community at the same time. The security guard at the gate watched them go in. He was quite familiar with Ye Yanxi as she was a long - time resident. Looking at their figures, he said to Ye Yanxi with a smile, "Little girl, your boyfriend is really handsome!"

"..." Ye Yanxi was stunned for a moment. After reacting, she explained, "Uncle, you've got it wrong. He's not my boyfriend."

"Got it. Not yet, but you should hold on to such a handsome man!"

"..." Did he really get it?

However, Ye Yanxi didn't bother to explain anymore. Seeing that Xiao Yu was walking straight towards the building where she lived, she rushed to catch up with him again.

By the time she caught up, still out of breath, Xiao Yu had already entered the elevator. After the previous elevator incident, Ye Yanxi still had a lingering fear, but now she had no choice but to follow. Then she watched blankly as Xiao Yu pressed the button for the 15th floor.

"Um, President. How did you know I live on the 15th floor?"

Xiao Yu didn't answer. It wasn't until the elevator door opened and he stepped out with his long legs that he replied, "Your address is on your resume."

After saying that, Xiao Yu stopped in front of her door and waited for her to open it.

Ye Yanxi rummaged in her bag for a while and took out the key. But she stared at Xiao Yu warily and didn't open the door, always keeping a certain distance from him. "President, it's... really late. What are you doing coming to my place?"

"Thirsty. Need water!"

These four words popped out. Looking at his serious expression, Ye Yanxi felt dizzy.

Coming to her place in the middle of the night just for a glass of water?

"President, if you're thirsty, there are many convenience stores downstairs in the community. They're open 24/7. Why come to my place for water?" Ye Yanxi wasn't going to give in at this moment. She didn't believe his words for a second.

"Open the door. I'll leave after drinking the water." After saying that, he even raised his wrist to check his watch, looking extremely impatient.

Could he really be here just for water? But why was his attitude so bad? He acted as if he was the master, as if she owed him something. However, seeing his expression, it seemed that he was really in a hurry. So she had no choice but to reluctantly open the door.

After entering the door, Ye Yanxi almost rushed into the living room like a flying arrow. She threw her bag aside, took out a paper cup from the cabinet, and filled it with warm water.

Xiao Yu, on the other hand, showed no sign of being a guest. He sat on the sofa leisurely.

Ye Yanxi held out the cup in front of him, still on high alert. "President, here's your water. Can you leave after drinking it?"
