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

Originally, Yan Zhixu did not pay attention to Liang Liangwei's phone messages.

If someone contacts her, she will definitely respond; that's normal.

But he noticed that she hadn't typed or voice replied to him for a while, so he glanced at her while the light was red.

Liang Liangwei sat in the passenger seat, her head turned towards the window, her right hand resting on the door to support her head, her eyes slightly lowered as she looked at her phone.

His brows were slightly furrowed, as if he were troubled.

He watched silently for a moment, and just as he was about to ask a question, he saw her move and start typing a reply.

The red light ahead turned green, so he had to turn his attention back to driving.

Liang Liangwei bit her lower lip and replied to Fu Yankai: [Busy, can't keep up. Welcome back to Huacheng, your hometown~]

Fu Yankai: […Thank you for being from the same hometown.]

Fu Yankai: [Are you free tonight? How about we have dinner together?]

Liang Liangwei: [Busy, I have work.]

Fu Yankai: [Working at night? So tiring? Everyone else has free time in the evening, but you're giving it all away.]

Liang Liangwei frowned, feeling the urge to block him again.

I raised my finger, but after thinking about it, I decided to hold back.

She still needs to get information about her father's health from him, so she'll have to bear with it for now.

Liang Liangwei covered her phone upside down on her lap, too lazy to pay attention to it.

Turning her head to look at the man driving, she couldn't help but be lost in thought.

When Yan Zhixu wasn't smiling, he truly exuded an imposing aura. With a slight furrow of his brow and a pursed lip, anyone standing in front of him would immediately reflect on what they had done wrong to offend him.

But she had also seen him smile gently, his lips curving upwards; it was warm and alluring.

So she can't help but want to flirt with him.

She remembered how he had forcefully taken her away from the nightclub last night, and how he had just demanded that she not go again. He was clearly trying to control her, but she didn't dislike it at all.

Indeed, it's true that you feel differently when facing someone you like versus someone you have no feelings for.

She recalled several more dreams about him, all filled with erotic and stimulating scenes, a stark contrast to his serious demeanor during the day.

Her admiring gaze shifted from his perfectly handsome face to his well-dressed body.

She imagined that when he was alone, he would be like that in her dreams... naked. Sleeping?

The daytime is not as enchanting and hazy as the night; suddenly, I imagined explicit scenes, much clearer than in my dreams.

She unconsciously licked her lips.

Suddenly, the man's eyebrows twitched slightly. He flicked the turn signal switch with his left hand and calmly turned the steering wheel half a circle with his right. The car veered to the left due to inertia. A few seconds later, he returned the steering wheel to its original position with one hand and focused his dark eyes on the road ahead.

It was done in one go, flowing smoothly like clouds and water.

He executed even a simple turn with such style...

Liang Liangwei was a little stunned. When she saw that he seemed to be looking over, she hurriedly looked away as if she had done something wrong.

Just then, her phone vibrated again, so she looked down and flipped it over to cover up the fact that she was secretly watching the man.

Her pretty face was flushed.

Fu Yankai: [If evening isn't possible, how about noon?]

Liang Liangwei: [Don't let me regret letting you out.]

Fu Yankai: [What's wrong? Can't we even have a meal together like ordinary friends?]

Liang Liangwei: [It's nice to be a friend who only sends mass messages during the Lunar New Year.]

Fu Yankai: [We've known each other for so many years, do you really think it's possible for our relationship to turn into that kind of thing?]

Liang Liangwei: [I wouldn't mind becoming that kind of relationship at all.]

She turned off her phone completely, put it in her bag, and decided to ignore it.

If we're just friends, this guy has seriously overstepped his bounds.

Moreover, he didn't just want to be ordinary friends.

She paused for a moment, thinking of her father's recovered flu.

My father has always been in good health; he wasn't affected by wearing masks for three years, but now, in these peaceful times, he suddenly gets the flu.

Although the flu is not a serious illness, it is like a sturdy dam suddenly being breached. Even if it is repaired, the traces of the breach cannot be erased, and it may even become a hidden danger in the future.

This made her aware of the crisis.

But she didn't want to easily give in to her father...

"What are you thinking about?" Yan Zhixu finally couldn't help but ask when she didn't say anything for a while.

Liang Liangwei snapped out of her reverie and smiled, "I was thinking about tonight's work."

When they arrived near the nightclub from the previous night, Liang Liangwei found her car, and Yan Zhixu parked his car behind hers. They both got out of their cars.

Liang Liangwei opened the back door of the car, put a few bags inside, closed the door, turned around and said to Yan Zhixu who was standing next to her, "Okay, I'm going back now. You can go to the company and get busy too. You don't really need to come down to see me off."

Yan Zhixu stood with his hands in his pockets, looking down at her. When he heard her words, his eyes flickered slightly.

Didn't this woman realize that the words she blurted out sounded exactly like those of a wife driving her husband to work?

He didn't answer, he just stared at her.

Liang Liangwei felt uncomfortable being stared at, looked away, coughed lightly, and wanted to say something more.

A gust of wind blew by, and she felt something fall onto the end of her hair. She instinctively raised her hand to swat it away.

"Don't move, I'll do it~" the man said softly, his hand already a step ahead of hers, pinching a fallen leaf from the end of her hair and showing it to her.

Liang Liangwei was stunned for a moment, looking at the fallen leaves in front of her, feeling both embarrassed and amused.

"It was just a leaf. I thought it was a bug that had fallen down..."

Feeling a little embarrassed, she smiled to defuse the situation.

Yan Zhixu gently twirled the stem of a fallen leaf between her fingertips and said, "Go back now, be careful on the way."

"it is good."

Liang Liangwei got into the car, turned around and waved to him before driving away.

Yan Zhixu stood there watching the car drive away until it was no longer visible before returning to his own car.

There was no rush to leave.

He lit a cigarette and held it to his lips, the white smoke drifting gently out of the open car window.

He lowered his eyes, his expression calm, lost in thought.

His phone rang, and he glanced at it; it was Xu Chaofeng calling.

He removed the cigarette from his lips and answered the phone with one hand: "What is it?"

Xu Chaofeng: "President Yan, the person you asked me to investigate a few days ago has yielded results."

“His name is Fu Yankai. He is the vice president of Huacheng Bank. He comes from a family of bank regulators and has been in the industry for 5 years. He graduated from the University of California.”

Yan Zhixu: "What's your relationship with her?"

Xu Chaofeng: "They should be friends, we can't find anything else."

"Can't find anything?" Yan Zhixu narrowed his eyes, a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "Is it encrypted?"

Xu Chaofeng, sweating profusely, said, "President Yan, you didn't ask me to investigate Miss Liang, so I didn't continue the investigation. Now I'll..."

“Never mind,” Yan Zhixu said after a moment’s thought, “No need to investigate her. Let her and Bei’an develop naturally.”

After a pause, he asked again, "Does Fu Yankai have a girlfriend?"

Xu Chaofeng was somewhat confused. Wasn't the purpose of checking someone's personal occupation or social information? How did it suddenly escalate to matters of the heart?

Fortunately, he was prepared; one must prepare early to deal with President Yan.

He read from the information he found: "He doesn't have a girlfriend at the moment, but there are photos online of him giving roses to a car owner on the street six months ago. It seems like he was confessing his feelings to the person and asked someone to take the photo for him."

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhixu, for some unknown reason, said to Xu Chaofeng, "Send me the photos."

Xu Chaofeng immediately sent over the photos.

Yan Zhixu's eyes darkened the moment he clicked on it.

The photo does indeed show Fu Yankai, dressed in a sharp suit, holding a bouquet of bright red roses, kneeling on one knee next to a red Wenjie car, smiling as he speaks to the owner.

But have you ever seen a person confess their love by kneeling on the ground?

It was less of a confession and more of a marriage proposal.

What made him turn so dark wasn't the man, but the car.

How come the bright red, sports car, green license plate Wenjie looks so similar to the car that was right under his nose just 10 minutes ago?
