Chapter 217: Infatuated with His Handsomeness
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Li Manyan smiled happily, stood up and was about to shake hands with Tang Xi when she was stopped by Jin Han. Tang Xi looked at Jin Han in surprise. Jin Han looked at Tang Xi and smiled. “Sorry, you’ve known about us. Now we’d like to know about the Queen.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows, smiled and retracted her hand. Then she sat down on the sofa naturally, and looked up at Jin Han. “Well, Mr. Jin Han is also applying for designer and art designer of the Queen, right?”
Li Manyan suddenly looked at Jin Han and jumped up with surprise after freezing for two seconds. “Jin Han, are you also applying for this job? Didn’t you say you weren’t interested? Why do you suddenly come to take the interview? Is it because of me?” Speaking of this, Li Manyan looked Jin Han with a smug look. “Oh…”
Jin Han’s face sank and he frowned.”I came here because I was afraid you would get lost and cause traffic jams.”
Tang Xi looked at the young lovers and a smile flashed through her face. They got along with each other just like she used to get along with Qiao Liang. Now she knew it was so sweet… Tang Xi looked at Li Manyan and smiled. But usually girls would suffer more and be more insecure.
Tang Xi came back from her reverie and smiled at Jin Han. “Jin Han? Please show me your resume and design drawings. Did you bring your computer with you? Can you design a web page for me to see?” Tang Xi gave a faint smile. “The Queen will make an official website after its operation gets on track, and you might be in charge of it.”

“Sure.” Jin Han took out his resume and design drawings, took out his laptop from his backpack and turned it on. “I have a question. Why doesn’t the company separate the art designer from the designer?”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “I had this idea before, but now I don’t have enough funds…”
“You don’t look like you’re short of money.” Jin Han looked up at Tang Xi, then lowered his head to open a page and began to make a web page.
Tang Xi smiled. “Our company is just getting started. There is no need to spend so much money. I will go to see our office today.” She put the resumes and design drawings on the tea table and looked at them. “I wonder if you have time? Would you mind going with me to see our office?”
Jin Han shrugged coolly. “I don’t mind.”
Li Manyan nodded. “Ok, Ok. let’s go.”
Tang Xi smiled. “Good, then can you go downstairs and wait for me. I’ll only be a short while? I…”
“I drove here. You can give me the address. I’ll drive there with Li Manyan.”
Tang Xi looked at her watch and said, “Okay. You probably haven’t had lunch yet since you rushed here to arrive at this time. Why don’t you go to lunch first?”
Li Manyan looked at Tang Xi in surprise. “How do you know we rushed here and didn’t have lunch?”
Tang Xi felt this Li Manyan who was talented in design but looked ignorant, it was really cute. She smiled. “He said just now that you might cause a traffic jam, which made him uneasy, so he came here with you. That means you didn’t make an appointment to come here together. And…” Looking at Li Manyan who looked hot though she just wore a white shirt and white jeans, Tang Xi smiled. “Your stomach just grumbled.”

Li Manyan laughed awkwardly. Jin Han suddenly stood up and glared at Li Manyan. Then he took Li Manyan to her feet and said to Tang Xi, “My resume has my name on it. Please call me when you’re ready or just send the address to my cell phone, and I’ll take Li Manyan there.”
Tang Xi smiled. “Ok, you guys go to lunch first.”
Li Manyan waved at Tang Xi and was pulled out by Jin Han. The door was closed and Tang Xi could hear Jin Han calling Li Manyan names. “You idiot, you usually eat five meals a day. Why did you come over without lunch today?”
“You should know I didn’t have lunch, when you heard my stomach growl… And… I didn’t wanna be late…”
“Yes, I heard it, but I thought…” Jin Han sounded helpless. “I thought you were hungry again after lunch!”
Tang Xi listened to their voices fading away, and smiled. Your boyfriend always thought you were hungry.
Tang Xi took their resumes and began to read them. Li Manyan was a graduate of the Design School of University A, and Jin Han was also a graduate of the Design School and was studying for his MBA degree.
“How I envy them! Watching them bickering, I feel I can become young again…” Tang Xi leaned back on the sofa, looked up at the white ceiling and sighed. Unlike them, she and Qiao Liang felt like an old couple, but God knew she was only 23.
“So you think you’re already old?” Qiao Liang’s low, attractive voice rang at the door. Tang Xi was frightened and looked back only to see Qiao Liang leaning against the door, looking at her. His eyes were full of affection. Tang Xi couldn’t help smiling and shook her head. “No, I just regret that we didn’t cherish the days we had but kept bickering. In the best times, we were in a cold war… No, at the best time, we weren’t in each other’s lives.”
Qiao Liang suddenly locked the door and walked towards Tang Xi. Tang Xi was suddenly feeling flustered. She jumped to her feet and retreated, stuttering, “You… well… what are you going to do?”
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi with a slight smile over his lips. At the very moment when Tang Xi’s back was about to touch his table, Qiao Liang threw the folder in his hand onto the tea table, grabbed Tang Xi by the hand and pulled her into his arms. Then he held her waist and put her on his table…
Tang Xi, “… Well, President Qiao… don’t… President Qiao… you must control yourself!”
Qiao Liang put his head against Tang Xi’s neck, took a deep breath and said hoarsely, “I can’t control myself, Xixi. When will you marry me?”
Tang Xi swallowed her saliva and gently pushed Qiao Liang. “This is not the time…”
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi deeply, suddenly pulled her to his side and made Tang Xi stick closely to him. Tang Xi swallowed and cursed fiercely in her heart. “Damn it! He is tempting her with his face! How shameless!
Qiao Liang bowed his head… further and further… When he was about to kiss her, Tang Xi suddenly closed her eyes, but at this point, someone suddenly knocked on the office door…
