<h4>396 My Feelings</h4>


    Cali had no idea what was running through Dn''s mind but she was certainly not used to following people around or being dragged along.


    "Dn, what the hell do you want? Let my hand go!" she didn''t want to create a scene that''s why she kept her voice low. "I need to find Yan Ying."


    Just one step away from his door, he stopped and turned around to face her with aplicated gaze, "You aren''t here for me?"


    Cali was taken aback by his question. Was she here for him? No! She wasn''t!


    Was she happy to see him here?


    Well... That was hard for her to exin.


    Cali shook his hand away as she replied, "No. I didn''t even know I''d see you here."


    Dn''s eyes lost the twinkle slightly but it didn''t fade at all. He took a step towards her, his hand lifted up as it brushed past the side of her face and lingered there in an almost sensual way. Even his face wasing awfully close to hers now. And as he came closer, Cali''s eyes kept widening.


    "EeeeShhh!"


    Dn''s trance only broke when he heard that girly shriek and that''s when he realized that he was standing before his employees who had been gawking for a long while now. Needless to say, the fangirls were about to go crazy because of his charm. Since Dn wasn''t looking his usual cold self today, he gave off a wild charm and along with his flirting, it just blew people''s imagination to a new dimension.


    Dn took a deep breath, he opened the door of his office and dragged her in before closing the door shut with a bang. Leaving everyone''s imaginations to run wild about what could happen behind closed doors.


    *PTAK!*


    After he left, in the originally pin-drop silent space a loud p was heard. "You idiot! Why did you make that sound?!" One of the female employees Liu Jinjing couldn''t help reprimanding her colleague, Gu Luli for ruining such a rare moment.


    "I couldn''t help it. Mr. Qiu was..." Gu Luli''s face had gonepletely red as she tried to form her words. "He was gonna kiss her."


    *PTAK!*


    Gu Luli groaned as she had been pped again on her head, this time by Wang Hualing who shook her head at Gu Luli saying, "Exactly! He was gonna kiss her and you spoiled the beautiful moment."


    Gu Luli could only grumble herints. It wasn''t her fault that she couldn''t help fangirling over her boss. In fact, it was already a miracle that she didn''t start cheering out for Dn. ording to her, Dn Qiu had beenbeled as a yboy because of how many socialities had been around him but he had never been official with anyone. Moreover, none of his employees believed that he was a yboy because he was a very cold and grumpy boss even on normal days.


    It was after Xiu became his assistant that his habit of firing people on a whim came to an end. Not only that, but he also started showing more emotions as well.


    Today, these people had finally seen another side of their boss. Other than bullying Xiu or being bullied by her, he was also capable of looking like a real heartthrob.


    Dn who had created a lot of buzzes outside was now staring at Cali. Right after closing the door, he had pressed her back against the door and left no way for her to escape with both of his hands right beside her head.


    "Dn, what are you..."


    Cali''s words died down in her throat as she saw his faceing closer again. He looked dead serious. There was no yfulness in his eyes as his eyes stared right at her full lips without even blinking. And the way he licked his lips made her hold her breath. She pressed her hands on his chest but did she push him?


    No!


    She couldn''t gather the strength to do so. Because the moment his soft lips brushed against her own, she was lost. Her reason or excuses everything just burned away with that kiss. One of his hand held the back of her neck and the way his fingers danced over the nape of her neck sent shivers through her body.


    When he pulled away, he finally got his senses back. Earlier he was annoyed to know that she didn''te to see him. It really frustrated him. Why couldn''t shee to see him? And the tone of her voice had made her feel like if she knew that he''d be here, she might have not evene.


    "Why did you?" she couldn''t help asking. This was the second time he kissed her. She could call thest kiss as his impulsive stunt but what about now? What was he ying now?


    His thumb pad rubbed the side of her bottom lip as he spoke in a raspy voice, "Why I kissed you?" She nodded in response. "Because I wanted you to know that it wasn''t an impulse that made me want to kiss you that night." Her eyes went round at his confession. "I wanted to do it for a long time. But since that night..." His eyes shifted to meet hers as he added, "Since that night I wanted to do it even more."


    "That sounds crazy," said Cali trying tough it out while she pushed him away to make some distance between them. She needed to think rationally and with him around, she wasn''t gonna be able to do so.


    "You confessing your love to me sounded crazy as well," he said halting her in her steps to look back at him. "I thought I was dreaming that a person like you could love someone like me." She frowned at him. "You and I have nothing inmon. You''re an adventurer, I''m a homebody. You aren''t scared of anything and I''m scared of every little thing in life. For instance, I''m scared of ghosts, small insects, dogs, roller coasters, blood, and even feelings."


    Cali smiled at his words. He really was scared of a lot more things than he mentioned. He was a weird creature, she had to admit that.


    "You had been friends with remarkable people since you had been in school. I, on the other hand, was too scared to even look beyond myfort zone because I was scared of getting hurt."


    "What are you trying to say here?" she chimed in with curiosity and perplexion palpable in her eyes.


    "What I''m saying is that... I think I like you."


    "Yeah, as a friend. I know that already."


    Dn shook his head. "No, not like that. It''s a different kind of like."


    "How do you know it''s different? Maybe you''re just confused because of what I said that night. I told you, it wasn''t supposed to be that serious. You don''t have to worry at all."


    Dn ran his fingers through his hair as he cursed, "Damn it!" With that, he took a step towards her. "I don''t care whether you''re serious or not." Another step towards her while she moved back on instinct. "But I''m very serious about this." One moved ahead, the other moved back again. "And I know what my feelings are. You don''t have to exin it to me." Cali''s legs hit the edge of the couch and as Dn stepped forward again, she lost her bnce and fell back but on instinct, she held his suit jacket pulling him with her.


    Now with his body pressed over hers on the couch, she had nowhere to run. Dn took a deep and heavy sigh before continuing, "You''re gonna have to do better than this to run away from me now."
