Out of control and sinking

The man took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and hung up without saying a word.

Jiang Ruan: ???
She was so close that she could see it clearly; it looked like Chen Nan's call. Curious, she asked, "Why didn't you answer? What if Chen Nan needed to talk to you?"

Bo Ye scoffed, his tone icy: "What could he possibly be up to at night?"

[On the other side, Chen Nan, who had personally led a group to set off fireworks for over an hour and was exhausted: President Bo, you're too much of a womanizer and neglect your friends! You actually hung up on me!]

Looking at the phone that had been hung up, Chen Nan sighed deeply, then led his men away.

Jiang Ruan nodded, it seemed so, but she still felt like something was off.

The fireworks had just ended when Chen Nan called.
Isn't that a bit of a coincidence?
Bo Ye's voice came: "Let's go."

Jiang Ruan turned her head and saw that his expression was not good. Feeling a little confused, she asked him, "What's wrong?"

Why do you seem to be in a bad mood?

She asked in a sweet, soft voice.

Bo Ye's eyes were deep and unfathomable: "Is that so?"

I set off fireworks for her, but she still complained.

How could he be in a good mood?
"Mmm." Jiang Ruan raised her hand and poked his cheek. He didn't change his expression. She chuckled and said, "I didn't do anything to you."

She asked curiously, "So why are you in a bad mood?"

Bo Ye grabbed her hand, pulled it down, and then put one hand in his pocket: "I'm fine, I'm okay, go back to sleep."

Just as he was about to turn around, Jiang Ruan leaned over and took his arm. Ignoring the fact that there were waiters nearby, she took advantage of the situation and stood on tiptoe to hug his neck.

Her eyes crinkled with a sly smile, like a fox's: "Those fireworks just now, you didn't have someone set them off, did you?"

Bo Ye immediately denied it: "No."

Jiang Ruan raised an eyebrow, clearly disbelieving: "Really not?"

Bo Ye was about to say "Mmm".

She spoke first: "Do you dare to call Chen Nan?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you were the one who ordered him to bring people to release them, right?"

"He suddenly said he wanted to take me out to dinner, and even booked the whole place. Then, right after we finished eating, the fireworks started, and Chen Nan called right after I finished." Jiang Ruan snorted, bringing her cheek closer to him with a mischievous grin. "President Bo, how can there be such a coincidence? Don't you think this is a bit too much of a coincidence?"

Caught off guard, Bo Ye's eyes flashed with awkwardness. He hadn't expected her to see through his first attempt at something like this. He took his hands out of his pockets, wrapped them around her waist, and pulled her into his arms.

He pressed his thin lips close to her cheek, his voice low and husky, even a little clenched: "Jiang Ruan, how come you're so smart, hmm?"

He spoke in a drawn-out, magnetic voice.

Surrounded by the deep, masculine voice, Jiang Ruan stuck out her tongue: "I didn't want to guess this either. Isn't this just too much of a coincidence?"

She smiled brightly and asked, "So you really set off those fireworks just now?"

Bo Ye: "..."

Can he say he already regrets it?

Chen Nan also said that all women like fireworks and find them romantic.

He shouldn't have listened to Chen Nan.

In her words, she became a rich, foolish woman who spent millions in the blink of an eye.

After all that effort, things still didn't turn out well. It would be a miracle if Bo Ye was in a good mood.

Bo Ye was depressed.

Jiang Ruan continued speaking smugly.

"Tsk, tsk."

"I never expected Bo Ye to have a romantic side."

Bo Ye: "..."

"I always thought you were naturally cold and aloof, with no romantic side."

Bo Ye: "..."

"Today really surprised me a bit."

Bo Ye: "..."

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Jiang Ruan blinked, deliberately trying to provoke him. "Could it be that you're upset by what I just said? I really didn't know it was you who put it there. If I had known, I wouldn't have said anything..."
