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

Liang Liangwei still remembered that the last time she met this woman, the way she looked at her was very unfriendly.

Looking down at her with obvious scrutiny and disdain in her eyes, she was like a high-ranking princess looking down on a lowly peasant girl with no way out.

That blatant, provocative gaze made it seem as if... she had offended the other person.

Have they met or known each other before?

She had no recollection of it, and was quite certain that it was the first time she had met him that day.

baffling.

She definitely wouldn't pay any attention to someone like that if she just met them on the street.

However, since the client was introduced by Mrs. Wen out of kindness, regardless of the client's personality or temperament, or perhaps they were arrogant and looked down on others, she only accepted orders based on her own preferences and on a one-time basis. As long as she could make money, she was willing to endure the temporary discomfort. Perhaps the client would return to America after the cooperation ended, and she probably wouldn't have the chance to see them again in the future.

That's exactly what she came here with in mind.

Lisa spotted the two people sitting from afar at the entrance. The one facing her was her friend Xiang Ting, and the one with her back to her was definitely the stylist.

Xiang Ting waved to her: "Lisa, over here."

She smiled back and walked over.

Standing in front of the table, he met Liang Liangwei's gaze.

This was the second time the two had faced each other, and just like last time, one stood and one sat, staring at each other.

Xiang Ting glanced at the two of them and felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

She quickly introduced them to each other: "Weiwei, this is Lisa who wants you to do her styling. Lisa, this is stylist Weiwei, you can also call her Rachel."

Liang Liangwei smiled slightly and extended her hand to her first: "Miss Lisa, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Lisa slightly raised her chin, lowered her eyes and glanced at her, scrutinizing her closely.

She was indeed beautiful, with impeccable makeup. Her eyes were long and narrow with upturned corners, exuding a unique charm of Eastern women. She had a delicate nose, red lips, and skin so tender it looked like you could squeeze water out of it.

She was wearing a new suede coat from the brand Clotis. Although the designs of this brand's clothes are very beautiful and she likes them very much, the overall style is more elegant and gentle. Her mixed-race features make the coat look a bit out of place, so she has always wanted to wear it but dared not buy it.

Unexpectedly, this woman was quite adept at handling...

Lisa gritted her teeth, really unwilling to admit that this woman had a really good temperament.

After a few seconds of scrutiny, she reluctantly extended her hand: "You—"

Just as Lisa's hand was about to touch her, Liang Liangwei changed direction and extended her hand in a "please" gesture: "Miss Lisa, please sit down."

Lisa's outstretched hand missed its mark: "..."

Xiang Ting noticed the interaction between the two and felt a little awkward. She quickly tugged at Lisa's sleeve and said, "Sit down. What would you like to drink? We haven't ordered yet, we've been waiting for you."

Lisa reluctantly withdrew her hand and sat down in the empty seat: "Give me a latte, no sugar."

Liang Liangwei: "Miss Lisa also likes to drink lattes?"

Lisa looked at her, pursed her lips and smiled, "Yes, my boyfriend likes to drink lattes, and I have the same preference as him."

Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "My boyfriend likes it too. I recently switched from coconut latte to latte, and it's really delicious."

Xiang Ting's eyes darted back and forth between the two men without making a sound.

Lisa looked confused: "What kind of latte is a coconut latte?"

Liang Liangwei: "It should be a flavor unique to Panda in China, made with coconut, which is coffee mixed with coconut. We call it a coconut latte."

Lisa pursed her lips and said, "I see. But you don't need to explain it to me in English. I understand Chinese and know what a coconut is. I just didn't understand why a coconut is also called a 'raw coconut'."

Xiang Ting hurriedly called over a waiter to take their order: "Quickly, let me see what you'd like to eat. I've been sitting here for half an hour and we haven't ordered yet. I'm starting to feel a little embarrassed..."

The food was ordered quickly, and Lisa's latte was served. She took a sip, frowned, and said, "The latte in China... well, how should I put it? It's too bland. My boyfriend makes the best latte for me."

Xiang Ting glanced at Liang Liangwei: "Does your boyfriend often make you coffee?"

Lisa rested her chin on her hand and smiled casually, "Yeah, whenever I want to drink it, I just have to beg him a little, and he'll make it for me. He's always there for me."

Xiang Ting: "Your boyfriend is so good to you."

Liang Liangwei lifted her eyelids, took a sip of the chrysanthemum tea in her cup, smiled, and did not respond.

Is making coffee enough? My boyfriend even cooks for me, am I proud of that?

Lisa looked at Liang Liangwei: "Weiwei, don't you like lattes too? Why aren't you ordering one?"

Liang Liangwei: "I've been feeling a bit hot lately, so I'm drinking chrysanthemum tea to cool down."

Lisa paused for a moment, then turned to Xiang Ting: "What does 'getting too hot' mean?"

Xiang Ting spread her hands, racking her brains for a while before saying, "...For example, if you have a pimple on your face, or a sore throat, or various inexplicable symptoms, it could be due to internal heat."

Lisa: "Aren't they all sick?"

Xiang Ting: "...You can understand it that way too."

Liang Liangwei lowered her head, raised her hand to scratch her brow bone, and tried to hide the urge to laugh.

Didn't you say you were good at Chinese? How come you can't understand "getting a sore throat"?

Lisa looked back at Liang Liangwei, her face full of surprise: "Are you sick?"

Liang Liangwei: "...Prevention is like preventing a cold."

Lisa pursed her lips: "Oh, it seems you're quite frail. You get sick all the time and have to take precautions."

Xiang Ting couldn't help but purse her lips and suppress a laugh, giving Liang Liangwei a look that said, "Don't bother arguing with her about her poor Chinese."

Liang Liangwei nodded slightly, and they understood each other perfectly.

The waiters brought the dishes one after another, and Xiang Ting invited the other two to start eating, while also getting them talking.

"Lisa is back in China on a business trip. She has some business parties and events to attend from time to time, so she would like to ask you, Vivi, to do her hair and makeup. You two will have to discuss the specifics yourselves."

Liang Liangwei: "I often do business makeup, but I've already told Mrs. Wen that I won't be taking any more orders before the new year. If we're going to work together, it will have to be next year."

Lisa frowned: "Next year? I might not be in the country next year."

Liang Liangwei: "If that's the case, then it's a pity. We can't cooperate in the short term."

Lisa put down her latte and said unhappily, "Are you really that busy? Are you just putting on airs to raise your own value?"

These words were quite provocative. Xiang Ting, seeing that the situation was not going well, was about to speak up for them.

Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "My prices are clearly marked in the company. I have worked with Mrs. Wen several times, and she knows that I raise my prices every six months. I won't charge arbitrarily. If Miss Lisa doesn't believe me, she can find another stylist."

Xiang Ting hurriedly said, "What Weiwei said is true. Every time I work with her, I sign a formal company contract with a price list."

Lisa's expression softened, but she was still somewhat displeased: "Isn't there still two months until Chinese New Year? Why are you making plans so early?"

Liang Liangwei slowly peeled shrimp for herself and said casually, "I've been busy all year, and all I want is to relax at the end of the year. I'm going to the United States with my boyfriend next month, so I turned down the order in advance."

Upon hearing this, the other two people immediately looked at her.
