Chapter 730: I Was in the Middle Before I Knew That I Had Begun (2)

There was an assortment of photos taken from all angles with great clarity and every single photo was of him and Xu Weilai.

Qiao Chu stared at the ground and placed his hands in front of his body limply as he said gravely, “These are the photos that I managed to intercept. CEO Zuo likely received the rest of the photos.”

After a brief pause, he added on in an even lower tone of voice than before, “I’m willing to accept punishment for failing to complete the mission.”

Qiao Chu was showing through his actions that he had chosen to stand on Zuo An’s side. Zuo An was well aware of his father’s capabilities and knew that Qiao Chu must have put in a lot of effort to intercept these photos.

Leaning back into his seat, Zuo An closed his eyes and massaged his tired glabella with his fingers before he replied, “It’s alright. I know that you’ve already done your best.”

He then opened his eyes again and waved Qiao Chu off, “You could leave now.”

Qiao Chu nodded in acknowledgement before he turned and walked out of the office.

Zuo An casually picked up one of the photos and saw that it was taken on the day when he tailed after Xu Weilai while she was drunk.

His attention was drawn towards the expression on his face. In the photo, his lips were subconsciously curled up into a smile as he watched Xu Weilai who was walking ahead of him and his eyes shone.

“So that’s how I appear to be when I’m looking at Xu Weilai? Or was it just a coincidence?” he wondered.

Zuo An found it rather incredible and proceeded to pick up another photo randomly. In this photo, he was talking to Xu Weilai on top of the mountain. Despite having a tiff at that point in time, his gaze was still gentle and his eyes continued to glow when he took a sideways glance at her.

Most of the photos were of him looking at Xu Weilai and grinning the widest. Although they were all photos of him, the person in the photo felt like a stranger to Zuo An.

“Was I in the middle before I knew that I had begun?” he wondered.

He knew that he had a good impression of Xu Weilai, for she simply had too many merits that inevitably attracted others to her. However, he had always thought that he merely had a good opinion of her or was just fond of her.

But right now, it seemed like he had underestimated the extent of his affection towards Xu Weilai.

Zuo An tapped his fingertips on the table lightly and waves of emotions roiled in his eyes.

When Xu Weilai saw Qiao Chu come out of the office, she took out the cup of Americano from the bag before she got up and walked over to lock on Zuo An’s door.

“Please come in.”

Xu Weilai then pushed the door open and entered the room.

After she strolled up to Zuo An’s desk, she smiled and greeted, “Good morning, Big Boss. How was your weekend?”

Zuo An flashed her a faint smile before he nodded and replied, “Good. How about you? Is your hand better?”

“It’s fine,” Xu Weilai assured as she raised her injured hand and waved it in front of him. “As I’ve said, it’s just a minor injury,” she emphasized.

“That’s great to hear.”

“Oh right, this is a token of appreciation for you,” Xu Weilai added and placed the cup of Americano down on the table before she resumed, “Hope you don’t mind.”

Zuo An’s lips curled up into a smile as he picked up the cup of Americano and took a sip to prove that show that he does not look down on her gift at all. He even complimented, “It’s delicious.”

“…Don’t all coffee taste the same?” Xu Weilai remarked.

“This is different,” Zuo An insisted before he took another sip and added, “Anything that you brewed or bought personally tastes delicious.”

Although Xu Weilai was already used to how frank Zuo An was with his words, she still found it hard to stomach his flirting so early in the morning. With the intention to drop the topic, she said, “I’ll get back to work if there’s nothing else that you need.”

Just when she was about to turn and leave, Zuo An called out, “Weilai.”

Xu Weilai instantly paused and blinked her jet black eyes as she replied with bafflement, “Yes?”
