Ji Weitian stopped and looked at him in surprise. Isn’t there already a bottle of water in front of him?
He looked so serious. Does he want hot water?
Seeing the hot water bottle at the corner of the lounge, Ji Weitian walked over and checked it. The bottle was empty.
Maybe no one had prepared hot water for the lounge since there was plenty of bottled water here.
Ji Weitian didn’t act like a princess. It was just getting water. She picked up the water bottle and refilled it with hot water at the boiled water station. She poured Qin Nanyu a glass of hot water and moved it toward him.
“Sir, here’s the water.”
Qin Nanyu looked at the water and Ji Weitian, who seemed so gentle and submissive right now. If he didn’t see how she acted at the restaurant, he’d have believed she was sincere.
Qin Nanyu didn’t touch the glass of water she offered. His dark eyes flickered and glanced at some tangerines in a nearby fruit basket.
“The water is too hot. Let it cool. Peel a tangerine for me.”
Ji Weitian: “???”
Yes, she was the host today, but how dare he treat her like a housekeeper?
He has hands of his own, why did he need her help in eating a tangerine?
Qin Nanyu didn’t miss any part of her expression. He caught the stubborn light in her eyes, looked down at his watch, and then casually said, “I just remembered, I have something to do at the office. I might not have much time today…”
Ji Weitian was shocked into action.
She didn’t have time for a tantrum. Grabbing a tangerine, she sat down in front of Qin Nanyu. “Since Chairman Qin came to our Jiangcheng University, you’re the most esteemed guest we have. I’d get a durian for you if you wanted it!”
She quickly peeled a tangerine, sectioned the fruit, and handed them to Qin Nanyu.
Qin Nanyu’s mouth quirked up. He didn’t touch the tangerine. He looked toward the fruit basket, where there was indeed a durian.
Ji Weitian: “…”
Is it too late to fake amnesia?
If not, she could pretend to pass out.
If he really asked her to peel a durian by hand, she’d have to beg for mercy and say she couldn’t.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Saved by the bell!
Ji Weitian could have cried while holding the phone. She told herself that whoever called is her savior, and she would be eternally grateful.
She checked and saw it was the director of academic affairs.
Ji Weitian answered the call. Before she could ask if the event had started and that she could have Qin Nanyu go to the assembly hall right away, the director apologized. “The assembly hall has something going on, maintenance workers are working on it right now. It doesn’t seem like the forum will start on time. So Chairman Qin… Weitian, you have to help us, make sure he stays put…”
What did she just say?
Savior? Oh no, the director would probably ruin her life with Qin Nanyu’s help.
Why did the equipment at the assembly hall have to break down now?
Ji Weitian hung up and turned toward Qin Nanyu to share the news with a sinking feeling. In the next second, the man on the sofa has taken out the durian from the fruit basket.
Their eyes met. His lips turned up. “Miss Ji, I want to have some durian.”
