Chapter 140 Take Action
Just as what Eric said, he was very busy in the next few days, and they seldom met each other. They got in touch with each other by phone basically every day.
As for Lily, she was not idle, because near the end of the semester, she had to prepare for the final exam. After that, she would have a winter vacation.
She paid little attention to the exams, which she had learnt in her previous life. When everyone was busy with reviewing, she only read the books that had nothing to do with her study, but the books about business.
Two days before the test, Lily received a call from Eric, who told her that he was going to G city with Noble, and was called back by their grandfather.
He went back secretly this time in order not to cause unnecessary trouble.
But the day before the final exam, Eric came back hurriedly and joined the final exam as usual.
The time for the exam was two days. After all the exams were finished, most of them directly entered the cold vacation mode and waited for grades.
The next day after the exam, Eric couldn't wait to meet Lily. To be exact, it was not an appointment, but directly rushed to the Qiao company. Because she was free from winter holiday, she stayed in the Qiao company almost every day.
When he found Lily, she was discussing business with Emily, who was talking about the project with Ellison.
Lily was surprised to see Eric come in with Bill. She asked, "Why are you here?"
"I want to see you in person." Eric said while walking towards her.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Lily's face turned red at his words. Though he didn't say these words too straightforward, they sounded like sweet words to her. She turned her head back to avoid answering his question, because Emily was also there.
"Aunt and I are talking about the project with brother Ellison. Come and have a look."
He had met her once, and with Lily's trust, he had no scruples about her.
He walked to Lily and sat down next to her. Then he put his hand around her waist and said, "I believe the profit from cooperation with Ellison will be good. I won't see it. What I want to see most is you."
As soon as he finished his words, he took back his hand around her waist, making her look like he was holding her in his arms. Then he buried his head in her neck and rubbed it softly. They were such an intimate couple and ignored others.
"Eric, aunt Emily is here." Lily didn't expect he to do this, and she struggled with a red face.
"It's okay. She doesn't mind," Eric raised his head and smiled at Emily, "Am I right, aunt?"
Emily was well aware of the relationship between the couple. She felt that their relationship was unusual when she first saw them. In addition, there were rumors about them some time ago, and in the end, the two families gave their secret blessings to each other. If she was no clear about it, she would be foolish.
Emily shook her head with a smile while she glanced at Eric, "I'm going to report to Mr. Joe about the outcome of the cooperation with Qi company. You guys..."
Then she continued with an ambiguous look, "Go on, I won't be followed by a third wheel here."
As soon as she finished her words, she turned around and walked out of the office. On the way out, she also called out Bill, who had brought Eric in before.
Seeing Emily walking out of the office, Lily's face turned redder. She said in a low voice, "I didn't expect that she also have some humorous moments."
Eric didn't care what she said. As the office door was closed, he couldn't wait to hold Lily in his arms and make her sit on his legs, then put his hands around her waist, lowered his head in front of her and took a deep breath.
"Hey, what are you doing..." Lily was frightened by his behavior. She patted on Eric's shoulder subconsciously.
"Girl, I miss you." Her voice was full of missing. Eric didn't raise his head, but held her tighter, as if to rub her into his bone.
Lily felt warm in her heart when she heard his words. She stopped what he was doing and looked down at the man who was burying his head in her chest and patting his head.
"I miss you too." "But we are in the company now. It's not appropriate for us to be seen like this."
"The office door is closed. No one is there." Eric looked up at Lily.
As soon as he raised his head, the hand that was caressing his head fell directly on his face before Lily could react. The intimate touch made her face flush.
Her gentle eyes and shy expression made Eric's heart skip a beat, and his throat slid subconsciously.
"Kiss me, girl." He asked her without thinking.
Hearing her words, Lily's face became redder, and her neck had a slight blush.
"Don't do this. We are in the office." She looked evasive, making an excuse. It was not an excuse. She had kissed him before, but she was still a little shy when he said it.
"Nobody is here." Eric's dark eyes were full of expectations, he began to feel uneasy with his hands on her back. He gently caressed it and said in a somewhat shameless tone, "Girl, you have to give me some candies. I can't really touch you until ten years later. I can't always wait."
Lily was supposed to be a little moved, but when she heard this, she suddenly woke up. She held Eric's face in both hands and pushed him to the back of the sofa, with his back attached to it.
She sat on his lap and straightened up. "So what? I won't let you touch me. So what? Why don't you ask someone else for help?"
"I dare not, I dare not." Hearing that, Eric immediately softened his voice and said jokingly, "How can I go to find anyone else since you are here? Besides, no one can compare with my girl. She is beautiful, smart, doing business at a young age, and most importantly, she knows and is considerate to me."
"Hum, don't try to butter me up. I know what you're thinking." Lily glared at him and exposed his lie rudely. "If you dare to find others like brother Ellison, I'll find others."
She leaned forward with her eyes wide open, which made the distance between the two closer.
"No, They're not as handsome as me. Look at me. I have better face and figure..." He began to praise himself.
"Haha..." Lily couldn't help laughing. She patted on Eric's face and said, "I didn't expect that you have such a thick skin on your face. Are you a narcissist?"
"I'm not being narcissistic. What I said is true..." He grabbed her hands which were making mischief on his face, put them close to his lips and kissed them. There was sincerity in Eric's eyes. "Girl, I want you to love me, and only me in your heart. You are not allowed to pay any attention to others."
Hearing his sentimental words, Lily blushed and deliberately distracted, "You are not the only one in my eyes, including Grandpa, mom, uncle, and many others."
Eric said with a spoiled smile, "You can make me unhappy on purpose. After all, I only know that you..."
As he said, he held her hand and pointed at her chest. "I am in a unique position and nobody can compare to me. Just like your position in my heart..."
He then took her hand and covered his chest, saying, "You're unique and irreplaceable."
Being too shy to look straight into his eyes, Lily said in a spoiled tone, "How shameless you are."
"I don't care. You are mine anyway."
"You..."
Right then, Lily's phone rang, interrupting their conversation.
"Hello, uncle Kerr." She answered the phone.
"Really?" No one knew what Kerr said on the other end of the line. Lily asked in disbelief, "Where? Okay, what about the details?"
Eric couldn't hear the conversation on the phone. He only heard what Lily had said.
His hands caressed her back and smiled at her quietly while she was talking on the phone sitting on his waist.
"Are you sure everything is ready? Where is brother Andrew? When will he arrive?" Lily said with a smile. She didn't care who was taking advantage of her at all. "Okay. We'll be there soon."
No one knew what Kerr had said on the other end of the line, and she changed immediately. "Okay, I'll go change with Eric, and then go there. Okay, come on, uncle Kerr!"
She was very happy when she said the last few words. She couldn't stop smiling.
"Oh, that's great!" Lily hung up the phone and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that she was so happy, Eric asked, "What did Uncle Kerr say to you?"
"It's a secret!" Lily smiled mysteriously and got off from him, "Stand up now. Let's go to the shopping mall and then go to the place uncle told us."
"For what?" A touch of confusion flashed across Eric's face. Although he didn't understand what she was doing, he didn't stop and followed Lily.
"Shopping. It's a special day today. We need to get dressed up. We're running out of time." She kept urging him. Seeing that he was slow, she pulled his hand and walked out directly, regardless of anything.
"Can't you just tell me first?" There was a touch of sadness in Eric's tone.
"It's not funny if I tell you. That's the happiest thing in my life." No matter in the tone or in the way of walking, Lily was extremely happy. She then emphasized, "Well, this is really the happiest thing!"
Seeing that she was so happy, Eric smiled and shook his head. Since she refused to tell him now, he would know later. However, looking at her happy appearance, he could roughly guess what it was.
It seemed that uncle Kerr took actions.
