Chapter 374
Xanthea silently rolled her eyes.
“He’s off shooting a movie abroad and probably won’t have the time, Oh, and Xan, Realm of Illusions has wrapped up filmning. I’ve got a stack of scripts here, all of them specifically requesting you. There are also some advertising endorsements and magazine covers actively inviting you. Il send them all to you later, and you can choose whichever you like. I won’t interfere!”
“But”
“Listen, I know you’ve been busy with your love life
Yeah
ely, but you can’t neglect your career. Orion will understand that, right?”
It took Orion a moment to respond, his reluctance clear.
Xanthea bit her lip to suppress a laugh
He didn’t understand at all, he hadn’t been going to the company himselfi
“Okay, I got it.”
“Then I hang up. Have fun with Orion!”
As soon as the call ended, Orion scooped her up in his arms.
Xanthea was startled. “What are you doing?”
“Aren’t you the obedient one, Xannie, always listening to what I say?” Orion’s tongue lightly pressed against his palate, and his dark eyes gleamed with mischief, “Right now, I’m want to…”
“What the hell do you want!” Xanthea clung to the sofa tightly. The first sentence about being obedient was a lie, the second sentence biting you is what I meant”
“Is that so? Orion’s lips curved up, and his tone sounded full of eager anticipation. Then go ahead and bite.”
Someone actually wanted to be bitten. Did he have a hidden masochistic side? Wait.
She looked down at him in shock. “What are you doing?!”
you wanted to bite me?”
“Didn’t you say you
“Ah” Xanthea’s beautiful eyes widened as she pointed at him, “What are you doing?”
Orion chuckled, a mischievous glint in his eyes as he whispered, “Xannie, biting is a phrase”
How could bite be a phrase? It was clearly a word.
Suddenly, it clicked for Xanthea, and her face flushed with embarrassment and anger. “Orion, you’re shameless pervert!”
Orion’s laughter was bright and clear. “Do you want more?”
“Let go of me, you pervert! Someone helps me!”
“No way” Orion tightened his embrace, kissing her deeply as if relieving a craving, “Now that you’re in my arms, don’t even think about going anywhere”
Xanthea couldn’t shake off the feeling that screaming would be futile.
A servants voice came from outside, “Sir, ma’am, I’ve brought some fresh fruit from the orchard.”
“Quick, let go of me!”
Xanthea struggled, and Orion finally set her down.
“Ding”
Her phone buzzed with an email. It was from the research institute, and Xanthea froze as she read it.
‘StarTech Explorers invites y
you to participate in the annual team selection exam. The time. Is..”
StarTech Explorers was a top chemistry research team at Crestwood Hall Academy and nationwide, her dream workplace.
But now, she was torn between the enthusiastic support of her fans, her uncle’s expectations, and her own long–held aspirations
“What’s wrong?”
Orion, who had just brought in the basket of fruit from, noticed her unusual expression.
