She looked directly at Joseph, but with the shyness and maidenliness. May realized that Susan had a crush on Joseph.
It was hard for girls to fall in love with Joseph since he was such a perfect man.
Susan turned back to talk to Joseph.
May saw a can of coconut milk on the table. Oddly enough, there was a tall glass of wine in front of everyone on the table, while coconut water was only for her.
She picked up the tin of coconut milk and tried to open it.
But maybe it was because her palm was sweating, or something else, she couldn't open the coconut milk.
Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Suddenly a hand with a cigarette stuck out from the side.
As he spoke to Susan, Joseph inadvertently removed the can of coconut milk from her hand.
Joseph had long, slender fingers and beautiful bones. He had a cigarette between his index and middle fingers, and the rest of his fingers were gripping the tin of coconut milk with the grace and charm of a grown man. As soon as he held the can of coconut water, it reminded May of the night when he held her head with his fingers and kissed her.
When she blushed, May's body was a little stiff.
When Joseph took the can of coconut milk, he put his cigarette to his thin lips, squinted his eyes, held the can in one hand, and opened it with another, only to hear the sound as he opened the can and then he casually handed it over to her.
May also pretended as if nothing happened, she casually took the drink from his hand close to his lips and had a sip.
Seeing that, Jeff and Manager Liu looked at each other, with a tacit smile.
Susan, frowning slightly at what she had just seen, knew she couldn't wait any longer.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms and packed up for their departure tomorrow.
May went back to the room and found it was hard to calm down.
"Calm Down, calm down. There's only several days away from a deadline, and this time, I'm going to get the clear Water Bay project. "She said to herself.
May constantly comforted herself. It's almost 11:00, and she was still awake.
She thought about going for a walk, and as she reached Entryway to change her shoes, she heard a knock at the door of her neighbor.
Of course, she knew her neighbor was Joseph. "Did Jeff have a job to report to Joseph? "she thought.
Then the door was opened, and there was a silence, followed by a shy, soft female voice, "You are leaving tomorrow, and tonight I want to thank you for taking care of Yang's Group during this period.
This is the red wine my father asked me to bring. He has been saving it for more than ten years. I wonder if you are free tonight. "
May was no stranger to the voice. It was from Susan.
May froze before changing her shoes.
It's not hard to imagine Susan's intentions with the late-night boozing and Susan's recent obsession with Joseph.
She couldn't help but sneak a crack through the door, and, from her perspective, she could get a clear view of the scene outside Joseph's room. At first glance, May's brow furrowed.
Susan was well-groomed, and her figure was even more striking.
With one look, May confirmed Susan's intentions, frowning even more.
In fact, Susan did have her own motive.
She had met Joseph a long time before and had fallen in love with him, who was the heir apparent.
Her cooperation with Huo's Group, on the one hand, for the development of Huo's Group; on the other hand, she wanted to get close to him and marry him.
Because she didn't know Joseph's character, in the beginning, she didn't dare to act rashly, but Joseph seemed to treat May differently. Susan was a little flustered and didn't want to admit that she was afraid of a married woman's threat, so she wanted to take measures sooner, just in case something strange happened.
Looking at the sexy lady in front of him, Joseph squinted his eyes, leaning on the door frame, handsome and graceful.
Susan blushed when she saw Joseph watching her, shivered, and lowered her head in shyness.
"President Huo," Susan said.
"I am free tonight, but I don't want to waste my time on wine. "
Joseph had his arms folded over his chest, his long legs crossed, his posture languid, and his voice cold.
Susan was stunned, and she felt a surge of a surprise because she misunderstood that Joseph was so initiative! She hated herself for chasing him so late!
She looked at the tall and straight man in front of her. Just looking at him like that, she could guess how strong and powerful the figure was under the white nightgown! Susan felt hot that her mouth was dry, and her heart seemed to pop out of her chest.
"Oh, that's fine without wine. If you want to talk about something else or do something else, Susan can accompany you. "
She took a step forward, making a gesture to move closer to Joseph. But before her body touched him, Joseph has already stepped aside. Susan didn't have time to withdraw her body, fell heavily on the door frame, hurt as she was, and hurriedly held red wine on the plate.
"I don't know Miss Yang has this kind of business. "Joseph said.
Joseph stood aside, seemingly oblivious to the fact that the woman in front of him had hit the door, he asked in a cold voice, "Does Miss Yang like to take the bus? "
Susan looked shocked and soon pulled her face away from the stiffness, forcing herself to show a softer smile. "You must be joking, how can people like us go to take the bus. "
Joseph seemed to laugh, which made Susan became more fascinated, but the coldness under the eyes of the man in front of her made her heart tremble again. The next moment she heard the man said sarcastically, "Well, more people get on the bus. In the end, it's not only dirty but also messy. I am wondering how much better Miss Yang is than a bus. "
Susan's face froze, then she understood what he said, and her face changed.
Joseph was comparing her to a bus, or saying that she was dirty and messy?! She thought.
