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

After breakfast, Liang Liangwei immediately went back to her room to pack her belongings. She didn't have much, so she finished packing quickly.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, I texted Yan Zhixu: [I'm better, how about you?]

Yan Zhixu replied almost instantly: 【We can leave anytime.】

Liang Liangwei: [Then I'll wait for you downstairs.]

After sending the message, she picked up her luggage and went downstairs.

I thought I would have to wait for Yan Zhixu, but when I got downstairs I saw him standing behind the living room sofa, talking to Grandpa Yan who was sitting on the sofa.

He was dressed in a bespoke suit, the fabric so smooth and wrinkle-free, his hair neatly combed, one hand in his pocket, the other holding his overcoat, listening obediently to the instruction, like a well-behaved child.

Oh, he really is a child in front of the old man.

The old man frowned and said, "Don't always treat people like you treat your subordinates. Can your girlfriend compare to them? Girls like to hear nice things. Sometimes you can swallow your pride and coax her nicely..."

Yan Zhixu remained expressionless and simply replied, "Mm."

Seeing his reaction, she couldn't help but smile.

It's... kind of cute~

Yan Zhixu immediately noticed her appearance and turned to look at her.

Her brows and eyes softened instantly, and a hint of... embarrassment appeared.

The old man saw her too, and promptly stopped talking. His brows relaxed, and he smiled, saying, "Weiwei, are you all ready?"

Liang Liangwei walked over and stood two steps away from Yan Zhixu, standing next to him with a smile. She said, "Yes, I bothered Grandpa Yan yesterday. I left in a hurry today and couldn't chat with Grandpa Yan like last time."

Just as the old man was about to say something, he suddenly stopped and looked at the spot where she had unconsciously stood.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt... it was as if the two children had planned it all out. He stood there waiting for her, and she stood at just the right distance. They even smiled at each other, and they actually looked somewhat alike...

The old man's eyes sharpened, and he immediately dismissed the absurd idea, feeling somewhat annoyed that he had such unfounded thoughts.

He forced a smile and said to Liang Liangwei, "I'm not bothering you. I'm just happy that you're willing to come to my house to see Grandpa Yan. Come back with Bei'an for dinner next time, and chat with this old man for a while longer."

Liang Liangwei: "Okay."

"Weiwei's downstairs?" Xiao Ling heard the voice and came out of the storage room, carrying a gift box bag. "Perfect timing. Didn't you say the bird's nest was delicious last night? Here, take this box home. You can stew it yourself whenever you want to eat it. It's very convenient. If you don't know the steps, just ask me on WeChat. If you really don't want to do it, that's fine too. You can come over anytime and have the housekeeper make it for you."

Liang Liangwei quickly said, "Auntie, no need—"

Xiao Ling, however, insisted on shoving it into her hand: "Don't refuse, or I'll get angry! A girl should never refuse something that's good for her!"

The old man chimed in, "Yes, please don't refuse Mother Bei'an's kind offer."

Liang Liangwei was forced to hold the gift box bag, feeling both touched and conflicted.

That Yan Bei'an, with such good family, he actually asked me to join him in deceiving people...

555, they really deserve to be beaten to a pulp!

Yan Zhixu watched coldly from the side, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.

He stepped forward calmly and took the bag from her hand: "I'll go get the car first. Put your bag in the car and wait for me at the door."

With her hand suddenly empty, Liang Liangwei subconsciously turned her head: "Oh, thank you..."

All that could be seen was the man turning and leaving.

She was somewhat stunned.

Xiao Ling: "Let's go, I'll see you out."

Liang Liangwei snapped out of her daze, greeted the old man, and walked out with Xiao Ling.

Standing on the porch of the main house, Xiao Ling was still muttering to her: "That brat Bei An doesn't care about his girlfriend at all. He made you suffer. I'll definitely teach him a lesson when he gets up!"

Liang Liangwei: "I was in a hurry."

She didn't utter a single word of blame towards Yan Bei'an, which made Xiao Ling feel even more sorry for her: "Did you send him a message?"

Liang Liangwei: "I sent it, but he hasn't replied yet."

Actually, she hasn't posted it yet; she plans to post it after she gets on the bus.

Xiao Ling was about to curse again when she heard a car horn.

Liang Liangwei: "Auntie, I'm leaving now."

Xiao Ling said reluctantly, "Come back to Bei'an for meals often~ Auntie will come to visit you for tea when she has time."

Liang Liangwei: "Okay."

She got into the back seat of Yan Zhixu's Bentayga and was about to wave goodbye to Xiao Ling when the car window rolled up automatically.

"Auntie, hey hey hey..." She was dumbfounded, then turned to look at the driver's seat.

Yan Zhixu had already driven the car toward the villa gate, her voice cold: "Aren't you in a hurry?"

Liang Liangwei was embarrassed: "There's no rush, there's no need to rush. Your aunt will think I'm very rude."

Yan Zhixu: "I'm also in a hurry."

Liang Liangwei: "..."

She carefully observed the man's slightly somber profile and cautiously asked, "Are you angry?"

Yan Zhixu glanced at her in the rearview mirror: "Why would I be angry?"

A blank expression and a cold tone are clearly signs of anger!

Liang Liangwei unconsciously fiddled with her fingers: "If I knew, why would I ask you if you were angry?"

Yan Zhixu looked at her for a few seconds, then looked away without saying anything.

A short while later, he parked the car on the side of the road.

Liang Liangwei was startled. Was he going to kick her out of the car?!

Although this is a high-end villa area, it is far from the city center and not a major traffic artery, so there is not much traffic on the road. If she gets off here, she probably won't be able to hail a taxi for a while.

If this man dares to abandon her, she will—

She was silently gritting her teeth and uttering harsh words when she saw the man look at her and casually utter a few words: "Sit in the front."

Liang Liangwei: "..."

Seeing her stunned, the man raised an eyebrow: "Hurry up, I'm in a rush!"

Liang Liangwei blinked twice, then suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, coming right away~"

He quickly pushed open the door, got out of the car, and got in through the passenger door.

Yan Zhixu waited until she closed the door and fastened her seatbelt before continuing on her way.

Liang Liangwei felt as sweet as if she had drunk honey water.

"Why did you ask me to sit in the front?"

Yan Zhixu said calmly, "I'm driving, so it's inconvenient for me to see you in the mirror."

Liang Liangwei chuckled. What kind of reason is that?

"Is it more convenient to sit in the front?"

Yan Zhixu: "Sitting close by, you can hear clearly without even looking at the person."

"..."

There is no way to refute it.

She fiddled with the seatbelt in front of her, looked at the interior of the car, and then took a sniff. The car had a new car smell.

"Is this car new?"

Yan Zhixu: "Yeah, I'll buy it and drive it myself."

She said ingratiatingly, "SUVs are great! The visibility is high, the seats are spacious, and they're so comfortable!"

The man didn't reply, but the corners of his lips curled up almost imperceptibly, indicating that her words had pleased him.

Actually, men are quite easy to coax.

She felt as if she had grasped some kind of trick.

Leaning back in the comfortable seat, she turned her head to look at the man's handsome profile and gently bit her lower lip.

Some ideas popped into my head.

Yan Beian's mother said that he had suggested sending snacks to "that girl" at the party that day, but last night he said there was no "that girl". So who were his snacks for?

The fact that he brought two boxes of pastries to see her was quite obvious.

She smiled knowingly.

It seemed as if only a thin veil separated them, and they were just waiting to see who would be the first to break through it.

Pulling herself out of her thoughts, she took out her phone, found Yan Bei'an's WeChat, and sent him a message: 【Any news from Fang Xun?】
