In the elevator, when faced with Le Peier's question, Yan Zhixu merely glanced at her coldly and said indifferently, "Am I that familiar with Miss Le? Do I need you to know about my friendships?"

Her tone was light and airy, but her words carried a heavy weight, causing Le Pei'er's heart to tremble and her face to turn deathly pale.

He was warning her not to meddle in other people's business.

Seeing this, Lin Yi, who was behind her, quietly nudged her shoulder and gave her a look, reminding her to apologize quickly so as not to anger the sugar daddy.

Le Pei'er's face was very unpleasant, but she had to force a smile, which made her expression look very stiff. She said, "I'm sorry, President Yan, I overstepped my bounds. I just wanted to find a topic to talk about and get to know you better, after all, we are cooperating..."

Yan Zhixu: "I'm not in charge of Bosch's domestic publicity. The decision to cooperate with you was made by the regional vice president. Today's meeting was just a coincidence, and we're unlikely to have the chance to meet again in the future. You don't need to get to know me."

Just as he finished speaking, the elevator reached the 10th floor. The doors opened, and without even looking at the other person, he stepped out first.

Xu Chaofeng followed without looking to the side.

His room was on the 9th floor, but he still had some work-related matters to discuss with President Yan.

Half an hour later, after finishing their work discussion, Xu Chaofeng packed up the documents in her hands and prepared to say goodbye.

Yan Zhixu leaned back on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and held it at an angle to his lips.

He exhaled gently, wisps of smoke drifting away. He lowered his eyes, his expression unreadable.

Xu Chaofeng was about to speak after putting away her things when he interrupted her.

"There should be an earlier flight tomorrow, at 7:30. Go and change your ticket so we can leave earlier."

Xu Chaofeng was taken aback: "Should we go back early so we can arrange other work?"

Yan Zhixu: "No, I'll give you half a day off after you go back, and you can go to the company in the afternoon."

Xu Chaofeng: "?"

Yan Zhixu paused for a moment before explaining, "Getting up too early will leave you feeling unwell, and you won't be able to get things done even if you go back to the company. So I'll give you half a day off to rest at home."

Xu Chaofeng asked suspiciously: Is that really the reason?

Yan Zhixu took another drag of his cigarette, leaned over and extinguished it in the ashtray. He glanced at his dazed assistant with his dark eyes and frowned: "Is it so hard for you to accept a half-day off? How about you work overtime for free on the weekend too?"

Xu Chaofeng quickly smiled and said, "It's not hard to accept, it's not hard to accept. I'll change my ticket as soon as I get back to my room. President Yan, please get some rest. I'll be going now."

Yan Zhixu: "Mm."

After Xu Chaofeng left, Yan Zhixu raised his hand to wipe away the smoke in front of him and got up to take a bath.

Seeing the suit jacket placed to the side, he paused, and the image of a woman wearing it and smiling charmingly at him flashed through his mind. He smiled slightly.

He picked up his coat, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose. His eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but move closer.

The fragrance became clearer; it was the scent of an unidentified flower.

Same as what she was wearing.

His thumb unconsciously rubbed lightly against the fabric, his eyes deep in thought.

After a long while, he finally stepped into the inner room.

Half an hour later, after taking a shower and drying my hair, I took my phone to the bedside to charge. When I saw that a message had come in, I opened WeChat.

Yan Bei'an: [Thank you, Uncle. You've worked hard!]

Yan Zhixu got into bed, leaned back lazily, and replied: 【Replying to me so late, where were you gallivanting all night?】

Yan Bei'an: [A few friends asked me to go out for a late-night snack.]

Yan Zhixu: [Did you eat your late-night snack at a nightclub?]

Yan Bei'an: [How could that be! We went to a proper restaurant for a late-night snack.]

Yan Zhixu: [Your girlfriend is sick, and you still have time to eat late-night snacks?]

Yan Bei'an: [(Innocently) I knew you were over there, Uncle.]

Yan Zhixu narrowed his eyes: [Your girlfriend? My girlfriend?]

Yan Bei'an, who was sitting in the center of a booth at the nightclub, curled his lip and thought to himself, "She would like to be your girlfriend, would you be willing?"

A well-dressed young man came over, took his arm, and kissed his cheek: "Stop playing on your phone and come dance with me."

Yan Bei'an clicked his tongue: "Stop messing around, I'm replying to my uncle's messages, he'll be angry if I reply late."

The young man pouted: "I didn't expect you to be so henpecked."

Yan Bei'an ignored him and continued to fawn over his uncle: "[She's my girlfriend, so thank you for your help, Uncle. I'll treat you to dinner when you get back~]"

Yan Zhixu: [Rare indeed!]

Yan Bei'an: [Then please enjoy a full-service massage.]

Yan Zhixu: [Get lost! I'm going to sleep, don't bother me!]

Yan Bei'an: [Okay, goodnight, Uncle. Sweet dreams~]

Sweet dreams?

Yan Zhixu lay down but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

The scenes of seeing that woman several times today kept replaying in my mind.

It has to be said that women are incredibly audacious. Almost every time they meet, they intentionally or unintentionally try to win his favor. He's not stupid; he can naturally distinguish between behaviors that are in accordance with the rules and behaviors that are ambiguous.

If one's speech and behavior are still within proper bounds, then the way one addresses another is truly unacceptable.

Just two days ago, he was obediently calling him "Uncle," but today he gradually went from calling him "Uncle," "President Yan," to finally calling him by his full name.

If he were truly ruthless, he should have treated the female celebrity the same way, coldly reprimanding her and forcibly ordering her to change her tune.

But when he saw her beautiful, delicate smile, he couldn't bear it and indulged her time and time again.

He raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows, a feeling of irritation rising within him.

But she just happens to be that kid Bei'an's girlfriend...

The thought popped into his head, and he suddenly opened his eyes, somewhat incredulous.

What was he thinking about?

What would he do if she weren't Bei'an's girlfriend?

……

ridiculous!

There are no "what ifs"!

She is Bei'an's girlfriend. Even if they don't end up together, as Bei'an's uncle, he can't possibly provoke her!

I pressed the tip of my tongue against my back teeth, closed my eyes again, and forced myself to fall asleep as soon as possible. I had to get up early to catch my flight tomorrow!

Catching a plane...

He opened his eyes again, his face cold, and turned to grab his phone. He opened WeChat and sent a message to Xu Chaofeng: "No need to change tomorrow's flight time, just take the 9 o'clock one."

Xu Chaofeng must still be awake, because she replied immediately: 【Ah? But I've already corrected it.】

Yan Zhixu's fingertips trembled slightly; this assistant's movements were too fast!

Xu Chaofeng: [Should I change it back?]

Yan Zhixu lowered her brows: "No need, the 7:30 one is fine."

Xu Chaofeng: [Okay.]

Yan Zhixu reluctantly put down her phone.

I don't know how I finally fell asleep, because I had some unpleasant feelings in my heart, and my sleep was always a bit restless.

In his dream, reality and illusion blurred. He was lying in bed sleeping, but he always felt like someone was spying on him.

He tried to ignore the thought, because the hotel had already checked him when he entered, and he was the only person inside and outside the rooms; it was impossible for any outsider to have hidden in.

But the feeling was really strong, just like that day in the old house, a pair of eager, greedy eyes were staring at his body!

Who is coveting his body?

In reality, many women coveted his body, and quite a few threw themselves at him, but none of them could make him feel his body heat up like the owner of these eyes...

Damn it, if you've got the guts, come out and show yourself to him. What kind of person are you, always hiding in the shadows!
