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

The job of doing makeup can be tiring, but it can also be very easy.

Since the client is attending a specific occasion, the makeup artist doesn't need to do anything; she just needs to sit and wait.

Liang Liangwei and Lan Yin discussed some work-related matters, and then she contacted other clients for a while. When she had some free time, she thought of the man's phone number that she had just added as a friend.

Clicking on the profile picture and zooming in reveals a slender, well-defined right hand of a man, lightly resting on the armrest of a dark green sofa, a cigarette held between his index and middle fingers, wisps of smoke rising gently.

She remembered that his sofa was dark green, so was this photo a recent replacement after he returned to China?

She loved looking at his hands, and she remembered the feeling of those hands around her waist—strong, broad, and warm…

She looked at it for a while, then clicked save.

Clicking into his Moments reveals a rather unremarkable scene; there's nothing there, just a blank space.

Does he never post on WeChat Moments?

But thinking about it, it makes sense. How could someone of that status and position have time to spend on social media?

I exited Moments, just about to click on his profile picture again.

Suddenly, a line of text appeared at the top: 【The other party is typing…】

Her eyes lit up, her heart raced, and she quickly sat up straight, staring intently at the words, full of anticipation.

A moment later, the man sent two photos, all of which were of the food at the party: steak, seafood, and snacks.

Then came the sentence: "Is there anything you'd like to eat? I'll bring it over to you."

She smiled and imagined the man standing in front of the food table taking pictures with his phone; it would be quite amusing.

She typed a reply: "[That's not appropriate. I'm in the lounge, practically a staff member, so it's not suitable for me to eat at a cocktail party.]"

Yan Zhixu: [Then come out and be my date?]

As a female companion, she is a guest and can eat whatever she wants at the party. It's amazing that he even thought of that.

In a different setting and at a different time, she would be happy to be his date. However, she wore a mask to avoid running into acquaintances at the party. If she were to appear so openly, all her previous efforts would be wasted.

Although she hadn't spent much time at the party, she still spotted a few people she'd met before who knew her identity. It was best not to take any risks.

Liang Liangwei: [I'm not wearing a formal dress; it's inappropriate for this occasion and would embarrass you.]

Yan Zhixu: [No]

She replied with a smiling emoji.

Yan Zhixu, sitting in the meeting room, looked at the emoji the woman had sent on WeChat and felt somewhat helpless.

He was at a loss for what to do with all the food on display.

I don't know what she likes to eat.

Xiao Ling noticed and walked over, smiling as she asked, "What are you standing here daydreaming about?"

Yan Zhixu put her phone away and casually replied, "Nothing, just spacing out for a bit."

He glanced at Xiao Ling, his eyes flickering slightly, then suddenly called out to her, "Sister-in-law, I'd like to... bring some food for the girl, but I don't know what she likes to eat. Could you help me pick out a few things?"

Xiao Ling's eyes lit up: "Is that the girl you were chasing?"

Yan Zhixu felt a flicker of unease in his eyes as his sister-in-law suddenly became so enthusiastic, but he nodded and said, "Yes."

Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Okay, I'll help you choose. Tell me what kind of girl she is? What kind of food does she usually avoid?"

Yan Zhixu thought for a moment and said, "I think I just saw Bei'an's girlfriend. Does your sister-in-law know she's here?"

Xiao Ling was somewhat surprised: "You saw her too? She is indeed here, doing Miss He's hair and makeup. She should be in the lounge now."

Yan Zhixu: "That girl was about the same height as her, just as tall, just as slender, and just as..."

He slightly averted his eyes, a gentle glint in them, and whispered, "So beautiful..."

Xiao Ling chuckled: "Pretty? I didn't ask you if you were pretty or not, but you described it yourself."

Yan Zhixu: "..."

Xiao Ling: "However, slender girls should be more mindful of their figure, so please don't take anything too sweet. I'll go pick out some milder desserts for you, okay?"

Yan Zhixu was a little embarrassed, and nodded: "Thank you for your trouble, sister-in-law."

Xiao Ling laughed and said, "Why are you being so polite with your sister-in-law?"

I turned and went to the food counter.

Yan Zhixu followed her a few steps away, picking and choosing at the buffet table, while the party staff helped pack the leftovers.

He said casually, "Sister-in-law, why don't you pick one out for your girlfriend in Bei'an too? I'll deliver it to her on my way later."

Xiao Ling thought about it and agreed: "Okay, that girl must be quite bored in the lounge. I'm with your brother and a friend and can't leave for the time being, so you can go for me."

A moment later, Yan Zhixu took the two dessert boxes packed by the staff and strode away from the party venue.

From afar, He Yaxiu watched his retreating figure, her face showing a mixture of admiration and confusion.

Where is he taking the dessert?

Are you leaving?

She felt a pang of panic, thinking this might be her last chance to get to know him better, so she quickly followed him.

As I followed him, I sensed something was off. Why was he heading towards the winery's lounge?

She hid around the corner and watched the man knock on the door of the lounge where Rachel was. A short while later, the door opened, and Rachel, wearing a mask, stood by the door.

She thought the two people were strangers, but they actually started chatting at the door, and the man handed Rachel the dessert he was holding, which Rachel naturally took.

Then, after what they said, Rachel took off her mask, revealing a face she would remember even if it turned to ashes.

Her eyes widened in disbelief, her gaze gradually turning fiery as she gritted her teeth.

Liang, Liang, Wei!

Yan Zhixu walked out of the cocktail party venue, took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Liang Liangwei: [Which lounge are you in?]

After sending the message, he stared intently at his phone screen, waiting for a reply. The smile on his lips showed that he was in a very good mood.

It feels so good to be able to contact her anytime!

Soon, Liang Liangwei replied with a room number.

Then another question mark was sent.

He smiled, didn't reply, put away his phone, and went from room to room, quickly finding his destination. He stood in front of the door and knocked.

Liang Liangwei had a premonition when she received his WeChat message, and when she heard the knock on the door, she subconsciously got up to open it.

Sure enough, it was him outside the door. The two exchanged a smile.

Liang Liangwei: "Why are you here?"

Yan Zhixu lifted the box of snacks in her hand: "I brought you some food."

Liang Liangwei felt a warmth in her heart: "Didn't I say I didn't need to? It wouldn't be good if someone saw us."

And they brought two portions! What's this? Did they eat it and then take another?

Yan Zhixu smiled and said, "I'll watch the door for you. You just eat quickly and make sure no one sees you."

Liang Liangwei was amused and reached out to take it, saying, "Thank you."

Yan Zhixu looked at her and said, "Wearing a mask in the room? Isn't it stuffy?"

"A little." She pulled down her mask, revealing her clean and delicate face, and smiled at him.

Yan Zhixu also curled the corners of her lips.

Liang Liangwei suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, your clothes, I almost forgot, I'll go get them for you."

She turned and went inside, put the box aside, walked to the coat rack to take his coat down, and then went back to the door.

Yan Zhixu stared at her back as she took off her coat, revealing a slender waist and tall figure that was captivating.

Lan Yin, who was sitting in front of the mirror scrolling through her phone, was stunned when she saw the tall, handsome man suddenly appear at the door and then walk in.

Yan Zhixu glanced at her indifferently before turning her gaze back to the other person.

Liang Liangwei handed the wool coat back to Yan Zhixu and thanked him.

Yan Zhixu slowly and gracefully put her coat back on, her every movement pleasing to the eye.

Liang Liangwei watched intently, a little heart fluttering in her heart.

So beautiful~

"Are you going back?" she asked.

Yan Zhixu looked at her and said, "It's still early, let's stay a little longer. What about you?"

Liang Liangwei: "I'm afraid I'll have to wait for Miss He's notification before I can leave."

Yan Zhixu nodded.

After a moment of silence, since there was a third person in the room, he decided not to linger and said, "Then I'll go ahead."

Liang Liangwei saw him to the door and waved to him from the doorway.

Yan Zhixu glanced at her with a smile before turning around and walking back towards the banquet hall.

As soon as Liang Liangwei closed the door and turned around, she saw Lan Yin with a malicious smile on her face: "Sister Rachel, that handsome guy just now... is he your boyfriend?"

Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "No, just an ordinary friend."

Lan Yin: "Just an 'ordinary' friend who lent you their coat? Tsk tsk, this 'ordinary' friend is quite thoughtful, bringing you snacks on their own~"

Liang Liangwei walked to the table and handed her a box of pastries: "Here, this is for you, to keep quiet~"

Lan Yin accepted it without hesitation: "Really not your boyfriend?"

Liang Liangwei: "Really not..."

Before they could finish speaking, the door was pushed open, and the two looked up to see He Yaxiu standing by the door with a cold expression.

"Liang Liangwei, it's actually you!"
