The housekeeper and Mr. Bai said that all the aristocratic families have sent gifts and have now been sorted out.

"Okay." Mr. Bai responded and smiled kindly to Secretary Xia, "Qingqing, it's so sad that it's raining. Let's go and accompany grandpa to bring out the gifts."

Secretary Xia was embarrassed and wondered how to refuse?

She is more direct in rejecting people of her peers. She really has no experience in rejecting the elderly.

Especially when an old man looked at her kindly and enthusiastically, she was really afraid of discouraging the old man's interest.

"Let's go, the rain won't stop for a while. Let's see what's fun?" Grandpa Bai said with a childish tone.

"Okay." Xia Yuqing looked at Grandpa Bai's excited expression, which was really hard to disappoint people's pleasure.

So, the group went to Grandpa Bai's living room to see the gifts.

"Come on, Qingqing, please help grandpa tear it down together." Grandpa Bai said.

"Okay." Secretary Xia had to put out the gifts with Grandpa Bai.

There are many exquisite gift boxes neatly placed on the coffee table and on the floor in the reception room.

Grandpa Bai diligently handed the scissors to Secretary Xia: "Come on, Qingqing, you can tear the first one and see what it is?"

The gifts compiled by the housekeeper were afraid of being confused, so each of them had the name of the aristocratic family posted on them.

Grandpa Bai said: "This is a gift from the Jiang family, look!"

Secretary Xia carefully opened the box with scissors.

Open the box and inside it is a pair of 50-year-old national wines.

There is also a greeting card inside with the words written on it: I wish Grandpa Bai as good as the East China Sea and as long as the South Mountain.

"Qingqing, come, you can register. At that time, we will pay all these gifts back." Grandpa Bai said.

Xia Muqing was really embarrassed.

Although these things are trivial, she really finds them strange.

"I'll go board." Bai Jingyao said.

Grandpa Bai smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you can go, Qingqing will tear it down, I'll take a look."

"Okay." Bai Jingyao responded.

Secretary Xia helped to remove the gifts while listening to the sound of rain outside from time to time.

The rain was really amazing, and it kept scrambling and had no intention of stopping.

It took me more than an hour to dismantle the gift, and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Grandpa Bai said while yawning: "I'm sleepy, it's time to go to bed. Qingqing, it's too late today, so you don't want to go back."

"Grandpa, go to bed quickly." Secretary Xia said.

She will go back when the old man falls asleep.

The old man went to bed.

Secretary Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

She immediately quit the old man's living room.

Standing on the balcony, she listened to the sound of rain, and she whispered to Bai Jingyao: "Mr. Bai, I'll go back now, see you."

The next moment, her wrist was held by Bai Jingyao.

Feeling the temperature coming from his wrist, Secretary Xia's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"Xia Yuqing." Bai Jingyao called Secretary Xia's name.

Secretary Xia's heartbeat accelerated again. It turned out that his name sounded so nice and so deceptive.

The rain is still falling, the sky is black, only the street lights of the white house shine on the falling raindrops, like white lines, under the lights, shadows.

Secretary Xia thought Mr. Bai might be drunk, and the lights and rain scenes under the night were so charming that he was fascinated.

She immediately said in panic: "Mr. Bai, it's too late. You can rest early. I'll go back first. See you."

She wanted to leave, but he didn't let go of her hand.

He said, "Xia Yuqing, I like you!"

Secretary Xia: "..." Her heart was pounding like a drum, and she couldn't stop beating. She was panicked and messy, and she was completely at a loss.

She had imagined that he might like women of all kinds of personalities, and never thought that he would say he would like her one day.

She was shocked!

She fought and thought about it, like an old mother. She felt that Mr. Bai could not hate her and burn the incense if she didn't fire her.

He actually liked her.

She panicked: "Mr. Bai, you are drunk, rest early."

After saying that, she wanted to break free from his hand.

Bai Jingyao was like taking Dali Pills today, and he buckled her wrist tightly, and had no intention of letting go.

Secretary Xia looked at Bai Jingyao helplessly.

What's wrong with this? Is it possible to confess my love? If I don't agree, it's better?

Bai Jingyao looked at Secretary Xia seriously and said, "Starting from last year."

Secretary Xia's finally calmed down and started to bump into her like a deer, making her heart pound.

Bai Jingyao said again: "Start from the time you carried me home."

Secretary Xia frowned slightly and couldn't help but recall.

Carrying him home last year?

I remembered that there was one time.

He was drunk and unconscious.

She carried him home, tidied up the room for him in various ways, and scolded him for more than an hour.

"Start from the day you scolded me." Bai Jingyao said.

Secretary Xia: "…"

She thought he was drunk and unconscious and could not hear anything, but she still remembered it.

"I have a failed marriage and a regret that I can't get over. I have been working hard to get out of it." Bai Jingyao said frankly.

When Secretary Xia heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable.

In fact, as an employee and subordinate, and as his life secretary, she feels uncomfortable every time she sees him drinking because of Han Yinyin or Qiao Weien.

She could understand a little bit when she was drunk for Qiao Weien. After all, it was normal to realize that she had been wrong before and when she wanted to make up for her regret, she found that she had missed it forever.

But because of Han Yinyin, she really wanted to scold people.

Just like Han Yinyin, is it worth drinking?

However, she understood it later.

Maybe he felt uncomfortable not only because of Han Yinyin, but also regretted his lost youth. A broken dream for more than ten years.

Bai Jingyao said again: "I dare not confess to you before I walked out, for fear that I would appear frivolous. I dare not confess to you if I like you for too short time, for fear that I would not show my love to you."

Secretary Xia's heart was suddenly hit by something.

"Today's Chinese Valentine's Day, I want to be with the person I like!" Bai Jingyao said.

Before Secretary Xia could react, Bai Jingyao took out a rose from his arms, handed it to her, and said, "I am serious. I know that I am not worthy of you when I get married. But if you are willing to give me a chance, I will treat you well, respect you, love you, and live up to you."

Secretary Xia’s heartbeat was completely disordered and her mood was complicated. She said: “Mr. Bai, you know, I have never planned to get married in this life…”

"If you try to fall in love, maybe you will find that two people are happier than one person." Bai Jingyao said.

Secretary Xia’s mood became even more complicated.

Does she really look down on a man like Mr. Bai?

No!

She just lives very clearly.

She is not worthy of being as outstanding as Mr. Bai. So she doesn't think so.

She felt that the man who was too scumbag was consuming himself.

So, she, like her sisters, is better to work hard and enjoy life by herself than to spend time and energy to choose men.

Now, she is in a mess.
