Chapter 69 Betrayal (5)
"Where are you going?" Venus Mu asked.
Xinyou Qiao turned around, looked at her surprised look, and said softly, "I want to go to the commercial building across the street. It has a good dining area there."
Venus just looked at her back and sighed.
Xinyou Qiao walked into the elevator. Waiting for the elevator doors to close, she gazed at the buttons for the elevator floor and finally pressed the number 28.
As she looked at the constantly rising numbers, there was a smug smile on her face.
She didn't intend to go downstairs, but went upstairs to find Kerry.
Walking out of the elevator door, Xinyou walked straight to the door of the Kerry's office. The door was ajar at the moment, and she could see Kerry concentrating on his work through the gap in the door.
Looking at his handsome face, Xinyou’s heart was beating fast. How she wished he was her boyfriend.
After Xinyou knocked at the door, Kerry raised his head and said indifferently, "Please come in."
When Kerry saw Xinyou, he looked stunned.
"What’s up, Miss Qiao?" he asked coldly.
Xinyou looked at him nervously and asked in a tone with concern, "Mr. Ye, have you had lunch?"
"Not yet."
Hearing his words, Xinyou was very happy. She slowly stepped forward, fingered the food in her hand, and said, "I just bought pizza and coffee online, would you like to have some with me?"
Kerry would have turned her down, but then he suddenly remembered that she was the woman of that night, so he thought for a while and said quietly, "Thank you. Let’s go to the lounge."
"Okay." Looking at his back, Xinyou looked proud to keep up with him.
The lounge was in the inner room of the office, and it was fully furnished. Actually, it was a small bedroom. On the east side of the room was a single bed next to a wardrobe and bookshelves. On the west was a beautiful sofa in front of a fine coffee table.
Xinyou put the food on the coffee table and said happily, "Black pepper beef pizza, coffee without sugar. Do you like it?"
"Good." Kerry said quietly.
When they dined in silence, Xinyou was thinking what she should say. Then she said softly, "Mr. Ye, you said that my work was impressive last time. Do you really think so?"
Kerry sipped the coffee and nodded.
After getting his recognition, Xinyou was very happy.
"I have been worried that I wouldn't be able to make it to the finals. Actually, that design isn't my original draft. I drew it again according to my memories. I always feel that it isn't as good as the first one." She said deliberately.
"Why didn't you use the original draft?" Kerry asked.
With a remorseful look on her face, Xinyou said helplessly, "I lost it and I don't know where it fell."
Xinyou pretended that she was that girl of that night and continued to make up story.
Kerry lowered his head. His look was complicated.
"Oh, I see." He said in a low voice.
"Do I need to order more pizza?” she said gently.
“No, thank you. I’m full.” said Kerry. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“It’s better to eat on time, or it's not good for your health." Xinyou said with concern.
Hearing her words, Kerry felt warmed.
"Yes, I’ll keep it in mind." he said softly.
From that day on, Xinyou would bring take-out upstairs to Kerry at lunchtime every day.
She was glad that Kerry was no longer so indifferent to her and would occasionally say hello to her or talk to her.
Looking at Kerry’s charming face, Xinyou was filled with fascination. Her desire to get him was growing stronger. But as soon as she thought about the fact that it was Venus who slept next to him every night, she hated Venus.
She'd always thought Kerry was hers. It was she who had the right to be Kerry's wife.
But she didn't know if Kerry had feelings for her.

On the other hand, Venus turned on her computer after lunch. She wanted to find some design materials and planned to organize the materials into a file for future reference. At this moment, Meiling's voice came out.
Venus looked up and saw Meiling’s cold look.
She handed a file to Venus and said lightly, "Please send this file to Mr. Ye's office. I need to go to the warehouse immediately."
Venus hurriedly took the document and said, "I'll go right away."
Having said that, Venus immediately rose from her seat and hurried to Kerry's office.
"Venus. Thank you," Meiling said suddenly as she looked at Venus’s back.
"You're welcome." Venus turned around and smiled slightly,
"
Then Venus took the elevator, and directly went to the 28th floor.
When she arrived at the door, she found it half open. So she walked straight into Kerry's office. After she shifted her gaze in the direction of the desk, she stood still as if she was struck by lightning.
