Xie Yanci snorted coldly.
Under Xu Shi's guilty gaze, he advanced unhurriedly on his long legs, closing in step by step.
[Haha.]
[I'm going to die again.]
He was so annoyed he laughed.
Xu Shi lowered his head, bracing his long fingers against his forehead and frantically avoiding eye contact.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Zhou An asked as he moved closer.
He had just been about to reach out and feel Xu Shi's forehead when a mocking snort sounded above him.
Zhou An looked up.
The man stood directly opposite him, his six-foot-three height radiating pressure, his dark, threatening eyes slightly narrowed.
He wore a bespoke, all-black suit, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, slicked-back hair, and thin lips. His downward gaze carried the pressure of someone accustomed to authority.
Like he was catching someone cheating...?
Zhou An instinctively moved away from Xu Shi.
Unsure whether the man had come for him or Xu Shi, he asked tentatively, "And this gentleman is...?"
There was a red carpet event today, and the stars attending were all top names in the industry, but Zhou An had never seen him before.
He probably wasn't a celebrity.
That could only make him a big shot from one of the companies behind them.
Xie Yanci calmly positioned himself behind Xu Shi, turning slightly to enfold him completely within his arms.
His dark eyes narrowed slightly, and three words emerged slowly in an emotionless voice. "I'm his boss."
"...Oh." Zhou An nodded.
With that tone and that bearing, he had thought this was an actual boyfriend getting jealous.
So he was just his boss.
How strange.
"Ahem." Xu Shi cleared his throat, holding back a mischievous smile. "Let me introduce you."
He took the initiative to push Xie Yanci in front of Zhou An.
