The little rose is so sweet and alluring, even the aloof CEO can't resist!

Liang Liangwei grasped the key point in his words: "You're saying that Yan Zhixu asked you to switch with me?"

Xu Chaofeng: "Yes."

Liang Liangwei turned to look at the other side of the gangway and saw Yan Zhixu had already reached the cabin door and was preparing to walk inside.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and glanced down in this direction as if by accident.

Liang Liangwei hurriedly pretended to tidy her wind-blown hair, and took the opportunity to turn around and say, "Why didn't he tell me himself to send you?"

Xu Chaofeng shook her head, then looked at her expectantly: "Miss Liang, would you like to change?"

It's a question, but it's actually an implication: Let's change it, let's change it, let's change it...

Liang Liangwei was amused by him and nodded, "Okay."

Xu Chaofeng laughed and took out her phone: "Let's take pictures of each other's seat numbers."

Liang Liangwei did as she was told, and then the two took turns going up the gangway.

~

After entering the cabin, Le Peier realized that her seat was in the same row as Yan Zhixu's, separated only by an aisle, which secretly pleased her.

Yan Zhixu had already sat down and was fastening his seatbelt when he saw a woman's figure in his line of sight. He instinctively thought it was Liang Liangwei, but when he looked up and realized it wasn't her, he frowned slightly and asked coldly, "What is it?"

Le Peier pulled down her mask, revealing her charming smile, and said, "It's a pleasure to be on the same flight back to Huacheng as President Yan. The cooperation with your company this time has been very pleasant. I wonder if it would be convenient to add President Yan on WeChat? Perhaps there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Looking at the man up close, he was excessively handsome. She had seen many wealthy and powerful men, but this type was truly rare. Whether for her future or for personal reasons, she didn't want to miss out.

So what if he's cold to her after several encounters? That's what makes a man more attractive. Once I successfully conquer him...

She really has everything she could ever want!

It's worth hitting a few more walls for this.

It's better than letting that woman benefit from it.

Of course, she was prepared to be rejected by him again, so she didn't even take out her phone, just asked him a question to test the waters.

Yan Zhixu said impatiently, "I don't handle the company's brand promotion, and you're not in charge of external affairs. You've come to the wrong person to discuss cooperation."

She hadn't had high hopes to begin with, so she wasn't too disappointed. Le Pei'er smiled slightly and said, "Alright then, have a pleasant trip, Mr. Yan."

As more and more passengers boarded, she put her mask back on and returned to her seat.

She had just fastened her seatbelt and looked up when she suddenly saw Liang Liangwei walking out of the cabin door. Her eyes widened in disbelief.

Didn't she say first class was full and she couldn't upgrade? What's she doing here again? She's like a persistent ghost!

Le Peier glared angrily at Liang Liangwei, then quickly glanced at Yan Zhixu, who had already leaned back and closed his eyes. She followed suit and closed her eyes, pretending to sleep.

A short while later, the woman's voice rang out from very close range: "Excuse me, you're blocking my way."

She must have been temporarily assigned a window seat. Hmph, she's lucky.

But her smile vanished the next second when she heard the man's slightly surprised voice: "Why are you sitting next to me? Where's my assistant?"

Looking at the man's raised eyebrow, Liang Liangwei chuckled inwardly: You're faking it!

She said irritably, "I paid three times the price to my assistant for this first-class seat, could you please move aside?"

As she spoke, she touched the man's knee with her own.

That stinky man's body is just like his personality—cold, hard, and uncomfortable.

Yan Zhixu squinted at her for a few seconds before slowly pulling his leg back to let her in.

The first-class seats were spacious, but the two inevitably came close to each other for a moment. He smelled a faint fragrance emanating from the woman, the same as that on his coat.

His eyes darkened slightly, and he reached out to gently protect her slender waist. After watching her sit down, he chuckled and said, "Assistant? You're quite polite to him, but why do you call me by my first name? You should change that as soon as possible; it's not proper."

Liang Liangwei sat down and turned to look at him: "What rules? When you're traveling, you should keep things simple. You've been abroad for so long and you're still sticking to old rules?"

Yan Zhixu whispered, "Sharp-tongued."

His tone... it was so indulgent, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Liang Liangwei's ears turned red, and she glanced at him.

Yan Zhixu tilted her head and reminded him, "What are you looking at? Fasten your seatbelt."

Liang Liangwei lowered her head and did as instructed.

Recalling his assistant's words, her eyes flickered, and she said, "The assistant said that you asked him to switch seats with me, thank you."

Yan Zhixu leaned back comfortably, her eyes slightly closed: "Mmm."

Liang Liangwei: "Shall I make up the price difference for you?"

Yan Zhixu: "No need, it's not much money, just consider it a small gift from me."

Liang Liangwei asked, puzzled, "What kind of gift?"

Yan Zhixu paused for a moment before saying, "You are Bei'an's girlfriend. As her uncle, shouldn't I give you a gift on our first meeting? That night was a bit rushed, and I didn't prepare one. I'm taking this opportunity to make up for it."

Liang Liangwei felt a lump in her throat; she wanted to be angry but also wanted to laugh.

She deliberately said, "A meeting gift? Then it's not up to this level. Your family is so well-off, yet your uncle is offering the cost of an airfare as a meeting gift. That's so insincere!"

Yan Zhixu laughed, opened her eyes, and turned her head to look at her: "Then what do you want?"

Liang Liangwei originally wore her hair down at the back of her head today, with elbow-length hair and slight curls, which looked very feminine.

But now that she had to sit up, being pressed against her back was very uncomfortable, so she took out a hair tie from her backpack and started to tie her hair into a bun.

Hearing his words, she wrinkled her nose before saying, "Shouldn't the decision of giving such a gift be made by the female elder?"

Yan Zhixu: "I'm afraid that won't work. I'm not married yet, and I don't have a girlfriend. No one can stand up for me."

His gaze unconsciously fell on her slender white neck, watching the delicate part sway slightly with her movements, much like the graceful neck of a swan.

His eyes grew increasingly dark, and his throat tightened, bobbing uncontrollably a few times.

Liang Liangwei used her raised wrist to cover the corners of her lips, and as she lowered it, she said in a nonchalant tone, "Oh, then forget it. I don't really mind this gift."

Yan Zhixu also withdrew his gaze and said, "It's only right to show courtesy. Consider it something I owe you. You can come to me anytime you want it."

Liang Liangwei snorted: "How can I find you? You won't give me your WeChat."

Yan Zhixu curled her fingers on the armrest to resist taking out her phone.

He chuckled softly, his tone indulgent: "I already told you—"

Liang Liangwei mimicked his tone and said, "If you need anything, just contact me through Bei'an."

Then she glanced at him and said quietly, "I can recite it all."

Yan Zhixu stared at her intently: "Are you angry?"

Liang Liangwei looked away: "How dare I?"

The plane slowly took off, with clouds and mist constantly drifting past the window.

She watched for a while, then suddenly felt drowsy and couldn't help but yawn.

Yan Zhixu noticed: "What time did you get up this morning?"

Liang Liangwei pinched the bridge of her nose, her voice unconsciously softening: "5 o'clock."

Yan Zhixu said softly, "Lie down and take a nap?"

She nodded and was about to adjust her seat when the man reached out and lowered it before she could.

He whispered, "Just lie down."

The seat gradually lowered with a slight hum, and she looked up at the man suspended above her.

He had exceptionally handsome features: deep-set eyes, a high nose, pale skin, and a firm jaw. He was the most attractive and captivating man she had ever met.

A faint, cool scent of pine wafted into her nostrils, causing her eyelashes to flutter and her cheeks to flush rapidly.

"Is this okay?" he asked, looking over.

Liang Liangwei panicked and quickly looked away, saying, "Yes...yes."

Yan Zhixu's gaze fell on her cheeks, inch by inch downwards, not ignoring the blush on her cheeks, before slowly moving to her lips.

Seemingly sensing his gaze, her two pink lips pressed tightly together, then suddenly bit down on them with her pearly teeth.

The man's gaze deepened.

Did that guy kiss her?

The thought flashed into his mind, and a ruthless glint appeared in his eyes.

He stared at it for a while before closing his eyes. When he opened them again, his handsome face was still tense. He quickly leaned back in his seat and tried to regulate his suddenly disordered breathing.

Damn...
