The little rose is so sweet and alluring, even the aloof CEO can't resist!
Chapter 16 has a touch more of the everyday life in it.
Xu Chaofeng has been Yan Zhixu's assistant for several years, driving for him all year round, and has become accustomed to the quiet atmosphere when the two are alone in the car.
Now there's suddenly a third party... uh, a third party, and she's a girl. He keenly sensed that the atmosphere had become strange.
Fortunately, there wasn't much traffic on the road at this time, and he would occasionally glance at the back seat.
President Yan usually either reads documents or rests with his eyes closed. Now, even though there are documents to be read in the back seat, he doesn't take them out to look at them.
To make his hands more comfortable, he would usually lower the armrest in the middle of his seat, rest his wrists on it, and lean against his body.
The handrail has now been retracted, and he is looking out the window, slowly loosening his tie with one hand.
It seemed that because there was a girl sitting on the bus, he didn't know what to do, so he just made some random movements to ease the awkwardness.
This version of President Yan has inexplicably become more down-to-earth, no longer resembling a cold and aloof leader.
It's actually... kind of cute~
Yan Zhixu was indeed a little uncomfortable. It was the first time a girl had sat in his Rolls-Royce, especially since she was his nephew's girlfriend. It was an awkward situation for him to relax and not be able to stretch out his usual lazy and relaxed posture.
A faint fragrance lingered in the air, a light floral scent that smelled quite pleasant.
He took a deep breath without making a sound, and then realized that his behavior was indeed a bit perverted, and his ears involuntarily burned.
Hearing the rustling sounds beside him, he lowered his brows and turned his head to look.
Liang Liangwei took off the coat she was wearing. It was warm in the car, and it would be a bit too hot to wear it on. She folded it neatly along the lines and placed it between the two of them, saying, "Thank you for the coat."
Yan Zhixu gave a faint "hmm" and glanced at her.
Perhaps because of the heating, the woman's complexion was much better than before, rosy and tender, and her eyes had regained their original brightness, no longer looking sickly.
The phone rang inside the car. It was Liang Liangwei's phone, which she had placed in her backpack. Yan Zhixu had casually put it in the middle of the seat when she got on the bus, and she turned around to pick it up.
It was Lin Yi calling, and she quickly answered.
"Sister Lin Yi, has your event ended?"
Lin Yi: "Yes, you just came out. I heard you weren't feeling well. How are you now?"
Liang Liangwei: "Yes, my stomach problem flared up. I got an IV drip at the hospital, and I'm feeling much better now."
Lin Yi: Are you ready to come back? Do you need us to pick you up?
It's always nice to be cared for. Liang Liangwei felt a warmth in her heart and said, "Thank you, Sister Lin Yi. I'm on my way back. I called... beep beep."
As she spoke, she turned to look at Yan Zhixu, who was also looking at her. Their eyes met, and she saw a strange look in his eyes.
Xu Chaofeng almost burst out laughing. Call Didi? Who can call Didi and get a Rolls-Royce?
It's probably divine intervention!
Lin Yi: "Okay, come back and rest quickly. Contact me if you need anything."
Liang Liangwei: "Okay, sure."
After putting down her phone, she saw Zhenzhen on WeChat asking about her situation. While replying that she was fine, she absentmindedly thought about Le Peier's previous words about wanting to pursue Yan Zhixu.
If she knew she was sitting in the car of the man she fantasized about, and was even wearing his coat, how would she feel?
As she pondered this, she stealthily glanced in the man's direction again.
Night had fallen, and the car was dimly lit, with occasional streetlights shining in and illuminating the man's profile, revealing his deep black eyes, resolute jaw, and refined, aloof demeanor.
She was quite engrossed in watching it.
Yan Zhixu was looking down at a file on his phone when the woman next to him asked, "Yan Zhixu, what time is your flight back to Huacheng tomorrow?"
Yan Zhixu paused for a moment, then slowly turned to look at her.
Their eyes met again, and this time neither of them looked away first; instead, they locked eyes in a competitive struggle.
"9 point."
Liang Liangwei looked disappointed: "Oh, what a pity, we're rushing to catch the 7:30 train, so we can't be on the same train."
Yan Zhixu felt as if a feather had gently brushed against her heart.
He lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the beautiful face of the woman beside him. His gaze slowly moved down to her rosy lips, and his eyes deepened.
"Why do you want to sit on the same flight as me?" he heard himself ask.
Liang Liangwei: "Sitting on the same flight, we can chat. It's a two-hour journey, it's so boring without anyone to keep us company!"
A clumsy excuse.
He smiled slightly and kindly "reminded" her, "Even if you're on the same flight, you can't sit next to each other, so you can't chat."
Liang Liangwei furrowed her delicate brows, pouted, and muttered to herself, "That's true."
Unlike high-speed rail, when you ask someone to switch seats, they will usually be polite and accommodating.
There was a moment of silence inside the car.
Yan Zhixu suddenly asked, "What did you just call me?"
Liang Liangwei's heart tightened, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and after a moment she looked up to meet his gaze again, feigning innocence, and said with a smile, "Name? What's wrong? I didn't remember the characters wrong, did I? Yan-Zhi-Xu, right?"
The two were not speaking loudly, and Xu Chaofeng was trying to focus on the road conditions while driving at night, so she didn't pay attention to what they were talking about.
A mischievous glint flashed in the woman's eyes, the kind that seemed to be up to no good, making it hard to ignore.
Or perhaps she did it on purpose.
Yan Zhixu narrowed his eyes, forcing himself to look away from her face, and said in a deep voice, "You should call me Uncle like Bei'an does, instead of calling me by my name directly, which is disrespectful."
Liang Liangwei: "You're only a few years older than me, yet you expect me to call you 'uncle'? We're only dating. Let's wait until we're in a committed relationship before we talk about it."
The "conflicting relationship" she was referring to was engagement or marriage. Yan Zhixu immediately understood, and her expression darkened further.
“If it weren’t for Bei’an’s sake, I wouldn’t have come here in person tonight. You should know what you’re doing.”
Liang Liangwei puffed out her cheeks, somewhat annoyed.
She glanced at the suit jacket on the seat, gritted her teeth, and retorted, "You only gave me your jacket because of him? He must have a lot of influence! I'll thank him properly later!"
Yan Zhixu was rendered speechless by the retort and gave her a cool glance.
She glared back defiantly, her eyes wide open.
A moment later, they both looked away.
Yan Zhixu looked out the car window, where the glass reflected the back of the woman's head beside him. He stared for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled silently.
After driving back to the hotel, Xu Chaofeng parked the car in the underground garage.
As soon as the car stopped, Liang Liangwei got out, carrying her late-night snack and backpack.
The garage was chilly and cold; a gust of cold wind blew in, and she couldn't help but hunch her shoulders.
So cold~
Yan Zhixu got out of the car with his coat in hand. Seeing her reaction, he immediately came over and draped the coat over her back again.
Liang Liangwei shrugged defiantly: "No need..."
Yan Zhixu pressed down firmly on her shoulder, his tone stern: "Wear it!"
Liang Liangwei was furious. She turned and glared at him: "Yan Bei'an's face?"
Yan Zhixu looked down at her, feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "No, it's just that the temperature is low, and you'll get cold if you don't wear it. It has nothing to do with Bei'an."
His tone unconsciously carried a hint of coaxing.
Liang Liangwei was pleased and immediately smiled: "Okay, I accept this reason."
Yan Zhixu felt relieved to see her bright smile return.
At the same time, he released her shoulder, took a step back, and tilted his head slightly towards the elevator: "Let's go."
