Chapter 291 You Are My Destiny 7
As the first rays of morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains and shone onto Anna's fair face, she slowly opened her eyes. Half asleep, she felt a pair of strong arms tightly embrace her. The blushing, heart-pounding memories of last night flooded back into her mind, causing a blush to spread across her cheeks.
Anna gently raised her head, her eyes furtively glancing at the sleeping man beside her. His eyes were tightly closed, his long eyelashes fluttering like two small fans. His thin lips, beneath his high nose, were slightly raised, as if he were dreaming a sweet dream. Anna cautiously shifted her body, trying to break free from this warm embrace and quietly get out of bed.
However, just as she was about to sit up, a large hand suddenly reached out and pulled her back onto the bed. Then, Zheng Qi's deep, magnetic voice reached her ears: "Nana, you're awake so early? Aren't you tired? Sleep a little longer. I'll take you to eat something delicious later." He then kissed Anna's forehead affectionately.
Anna suddenly felt embarrassed. She quickly pushed Zheng Qi's hand away and stammered, "Zheng Qi, I... I want to get up!" Seeing this, Zheng Qi no longer forced her and slowly loosened her hands. Just as Anna was about to get up, perhaps because her legs were still a little weak, or perhaps because she was too nervous, her body suddenly swayed and she almost fell to the ground.
In a flash, Zheng Qi quickly reached out and held her. Anna instinctively looked up, and what she saw was Zheng Qi's bare chest, revealing his toned chest and abs. Instantly, Anna's pretty face flushed like a ripe apple. She shyly lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you...thank you, I need to go to the bathroom! Could you please let go..." Then, she hurried to the restroom.
Entering the bathroom, Anna took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner panic. She turned on the faucet and washed her face with cold water, hoping to calm herself down. After washing up, she changed into clean clothes and felt a little more at ease.
When Anna gently pushed open the bathroom door and walked out, she saw Zheng Qi had dressed neatly. He was wearing a well-tailored suit and standing tall in front of the bright mirror, holding a toothbrush in his hand, about to start washing up.
Seeing this, Anna didn't want to disturb him any further, so she turned and walked towards the living room. After arriving in the living room, she slowly sat down on the soft sofa and quietly waited for Zheng Qi to come out of the bathroom.
Not long after, Zheng Qi wiped the corners of his mouth with a towel and walked out of the bathroom quickly. He looked at Anna with a smile and said softly: "Okay, Nana! Let's go out and find a place to eat..." However, what surprised Zheng Qi was that Anna looked very embarrassed after hearing his words, and her body didn't even move. Then, Anna said a little nervously: "I'm sorry! Zheng Qi, I really drank too much last night! How about we just forget about what happened last night and pretend nothing happened, okay? I don't think you want to take any responsibility for this matter..."
After hearing Anna's words, Zheng Qi, who had been smiling, instantly became furious. He widened his eyes, staring intently at the seemingly nonchalant woman in front of him, and shouted, "Nana, do you even know what you're talking about?"
Faced with Zheng Qi's strong reaction, Anna just nodded slightly, indicating that she understood clearly. Then, she raised her head and looked directly at Zheng Qi.
Zheng Qi was furious. He had never imagined Anna would say such a thing. Looking at this heartless woman, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "Fine! Since you wish so, then it's as you wish!" Then, Zheng Qi grabbed the car keys on the table and walked straight to the door without looking back.
Seeing Zheng Qi leave her home without any regrets, Anna, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She slowly leaned back against the sofa, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away at this moment.
On the other side, Zheng Qi, who had just walked out of Anna's house, quickly got into the car parked downstairs. He sat in the driver's seat, unable to calm down for a long time. Thinking of what Anna had just said, Zheng Qi couldn't help but feel angry. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Finally, he simply took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one, lit it, and took a few deep puffs. In the smoke, Zheng Qi thought to himself: Could it be that everything that happened between the two of them last night really meant nothing to that woman? He originally thought that after the intimate contact last night, at least in the depths of Anna's heart, she would have some different feelings for him. After all, it was other women who always tried to stick to him, Zheng Qi. This was the first time in his life that he met a woman who was afraid of being entangled by him. How hateful!
Anna rested for a while and was about to go to bed for a while when the phone rang. Anna picked up the phone. Jinglei asked, "How are you, sister?"
Anna said calmly, "You're so heartless! You still remember this! You just left me alone to a strange man. Aren't you afraid that I'll be sold?"
Jinglei said with a giggle: "Qi Shuai has a good character, is popular with women, and is handsome. Sister, I am thinking about you getting hurt by a scumbag, so I am creating an opportunity for you to pick up a handsome guy!"
Anna said, "I see, little housekeeper, I'm fine! I drank too much last night and have a headache! Now I want to rest..."
Jinglei asked with concern: "Have you eaten? I'll come to see you now and bring you something to eat!"
Anna smiled and said, "No need! You go ahead and do your work. I'll call you after I get some sleep!"
Jinglei said, "Okay!" Zheng Qi was in a bad mood when he returned to the company. The entire R&D department was reprimanded by him. After hearing what Yan Qing said, Feng Teng asked Zheng Qi to come to his office.
Feng Teng said in a deep voice, "What happened? Zheng Qi?"
Zheng Qi stared at his phone absentmindedly and muttered, "Nothing!"
Feng Teng looked him over and knew there must be a reason. After a moment's thought, he said, "Tell me! Yan Qing and I can help you analyze it."
Zheng Qi was silent for a moment, then said, "I fell in love with a girl and spent a night with her. But she doesn't want to have anything to do with me anymore, and she doesn't even want me to take responsibility!"
Yan Qing smiled slightly and said, "This is not like you! Zheng Qi..."
Feng Teng thought for a moment and then asked, "Where did you meet her?"
Zheng Qi replied, "At first, we bumped into each other by chance on the Bund street, but we apologized to each other and separated. In the evening, I met her again at Jinglei's party, and we both drank too much..."
Feng Teng said thoughtfully, "That's not surprising! She doesn't know you well, and the two of you just had a drunken outburst! She might think you're not the right person for her... If you like her, get to know her better, and then pursue her seriously!"
Yan Qing echoed, "Yeah! Zheng Qi, you're not acting like yourself now..." After hearing the words of comfort from his two good brothers, Zheng Qi hurried away. Feng Teng said to Yan Qing, "Go investigate. The company's stock is soaring, and the game is booming. I'm afraid someone with ulterior motives might be using a honey trap to get you into trouble!"
Yan Qing said: "That shouldn't be the case! Zheng Qi wouldn't be so incapable of not seeing through such a small trick!"
Feng Teng said, "Zheng Qi is in charge of the R&D department, so it's better to be cautious!" Upon hearing this, Yan Qing quickly arranged for someone to investigate...
