Chapter 458: Not Responding To Arguments
As a finance official, Taike’s thinking was quite clear.
This kid called Lin Xiao was just a normal investigator, he wasn’t handsome, nor did he have any wealth or power. Yet he wasn’t respectful in his words toward Claire and planned to use ways to punish her for dozing off, this meant that Claire respected and trusted him, she really treated him like a teacher!
What was more strange was that with Claire’s personality, she would never let a man easily touch her body, but this time she didn’t mind at all with Lin Xiao. That meant their relationship was already intimate and wasn’t just normal friends that just meant, perhaps they were already…
Just as Taike thought, since Claire personally admitted they did a lot of things together last night, that meant she was using a subtle way to announce to everyone Lin Xiao’s identity! He wasn’t just an investigator, advisor, and teacher, but also her lover and future husband!
“Uncle Taike, w-what are you talking about!?”
How could Claire not understand Taike when she saw his expression? She immediately panicked and sobered up and quickly denied it. She explained that nothing happened between them and they were only up late last night looking through documents and preparing for the meeting.
Taike was skeptical of her justification, as well as the others, but regardless of the truth, at least everyone knew that this normal youth wasn’t simple and they had to respect him.
“Cough, cough… okay, okay, it’s time, we should start the meeting!”
Claire endured the shame and coughed to change the subject then announced the start of the meeting but was stopped.
