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

She chatted casually with Yan Bei'an for a few moments, and then Yan Zhixu returned with the coffee.

A coconut latte was placed in front of her: "It has sugar on it."

"Thank you~" Liang Liangwei opened her mouth slightly, tilted her head back and took a sip. It was sweet, just like her thoughts at that moment.

The man, casually sipping a latte, didn't sit down, but looked down at her and said, "Let's go eat."

"it is good."

The two walked out of the milk tea shop and headed towards the Cantonese restaurant where they had made a reservation.

Yan Zhixu reached out to her to take her hand, but Liang Liangwei looked around and deliberately took a step back, shaking her head and smiling at him.

Although the deal with Yan Bei'an was terminated last night, Yan Bei'an hadn't told Xiao Ling yet, so she should restrain herself to avoid any complications.

Although she also longed to hold hands sweetly with a man.

Yan Zhixu looked at her with some helplessness, but did not force her, and continued to walk side by side with her.

At the same time, he also reminded people: "Don't keep looking around for people."

Liang Liangwei: "Why? Otherwise, I'll be very nervous if I don't know where she is~"

Yan Zhixu: "That's a sign that you're feeling guilty. Just be more natural."

"..." Liang Liangwei thought about it and realized it was true. "Okay."

Upon entering the Cantonese restaurant, the two chose an empty seat. There was a menu on the table, and Liang Liangwei took out her phone to scan it, but Yan Zhixu handed it to her.

"Use mine."

Liang Liangwei didn't stand on ceremony. She took his phone and used facial scanning to unlock it.

Yan Zhixu looked at her cooperatively.

She smiled as she unlocked the device and scanned the code to order food.

Each time she chose a dish, she would ask for his opinion. At first, Yan Zhixu would reply with "okay," but after two times, he said gently, "Just order what you like."

Liang Liangwei: "When two people eat together, it has to be something you like. Otherwise, if I order something you don't like, you'll just have to watch me eat it."

Yan Zhixu chuckled: "Cantonese cuisine is light, which suits my taste. Besides, Bei'an and I ate at this chain restaurant elsewhere before, and the food was quite good, so you can order whatever you want."

Liang Liangwei smiled: "Did Yan Bei'an take you to eat here? Speaking of which, I was the one who recommended this restaurant to him."

As if she had just thought of something, she blinked and looked at him: "Did he tell you that I like Cantonese food, so you brought me here to eat?"

Yan Zhixu looked at her without saying anything, but the look in his eyes already indicated his agreement.

Liang Liangwei chuckled.

Sure enough, that's how good things are; they spread from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and eventually end up back with the person who first shared them.

After ordering the food, return the phone to him.

The food was served quickly, and they began to eat.

Liang Liangwei started a conversation by telling Yan Beian about the WeChat message he had sent her.

“He said he had arranged to meet both of us, but my car broke down, so he asked you to pick me up first.”

Yan Zhixu was looking down, gently poking at a piece of fish with a spoon, but not putting it into the bowl.

Liang Liangwei glanced at it a few times, and finally couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Are you playing games with the fish?"

Yan Zhixu glanced back at her: "I'm picking fish bones out for you."

Liang Liangwei felt a warmth in her heart, but still spoke up: "...Turbot doesn't have many bones, so you don't need to pick them out."

Yan Zhixu paused, and his expression visibly turned awkward.

Can he say, "No wonder there are hardly any thorns after all this time?"

I thought the fishbone was hidden deep inside, but it turns out it wasn't...

Liang Liangwei suppressed a laugh and handed him the small bowl, saying, "Thank you, I was just thinking of eating fish."

Yan Zhixu chuckled lightly and placed a large piece of fish into her bowl.

Liang Liangwei ate with a happy mood.

After taking only two bites, the man suddenly said, "He's quite cooperative with you."

Liang Liangwei looked up at him.

Yan Zhixu's expression was indifferent, and his tone was also indifferent: "Knowing that you chose to be with me, not only did we not argue, but you also put friends first and were even willing to cover for me and me."

Beneath the surface of his seemingly emotionless words, there was a hint of dismissive sarcasm.

It seems that what she said is true. She was only with Yan Bei'an to give it a try. A month of dating did not create any emotional bond between them. Either party could call it off at any time, and they would immediately revert to an ordinary relationship.

He looked up at her and handed her a piece of fish: "He's got a big heart."

Liang Liangwei raised her hand and scratched her brow bone: "..."

This action is a sign that she feels guilty.

Yan Zhixu received an overseas phone call and spoke entirely in English.

Liang Liangwei ate her food slowly, glancing at him every now and then.

The man lowered his eyes slightly, his expression indifferent, and spoke fluent English in a deep voice. Although her English was also very good, she only had a vague understanding of many of the technical terms he used, and gradually stopped paying attention.

While answering the phone, Yan Zhixu also used a slotted spoon to pick out the meat from the soup and put it into the woman's bowl across from him.

Liang Liangwei tried her best to feed herself like a pig.

Suddenly, she heard the man raise his voice slightly and say in Chinese in a very displeased tone: "Lisa, don't test my patience. We don't need you here. You're superfluous."

Liang Liangwei paused, stopped chewing, and looked at him.

Yan Zhixu switched to English, said a few words rather rudely, and then hung up the phone.

Noticing her gaze, he softened his expression and explained, "A colleague from abroad said he's coming over; he's not an important person."

colleague?

He's the CEO; anyone he calls a colleague can't be an ordinary employee, right? They must be at least a senior executive, maybe even a CEO.

Since he's a manager, what's the point of him showing up here out of nowhere unless there's a special reason? Is he abandoning his work?

Lisa...is she a woman?

If it's really not important, why are you so angry?

They're probably here for him.

Although he spoke English for a long time on the phone, the sudden burst of Chinese suggested that the other person was also Chinese? Or of Chinese descent?

Perhaps it was her intriguing expression that prompted Yan Zhixu to raise an eyebrow: "What?"

Liang Liangwei rested her chin on her hand and asked, "What is your status in the United States? Have you acquired their citizenship?"

Yan Zhixu: "No, I just got a green card."

Acquiring foreign citizenship makes one a citizen of that country, which is equivalent to giving up one's own citizenship. However, a green card holder is merely a foreigner with permanent residency status, so he currently still holds citizenship of the Panda Nation.

Liang Liangwei: "Will you choose to come back and settle down in the future?"

Yan Zhixu: "I hadn't considered it before. It doesn't matter where it is, since flying is very convenient anyway."

Liang Liangwei: "So what about now? Have you considered it?"

Yan Zhixu chuckled, her gaze unfathomable: "There are too many uncertainties. It depends on which specific matter is troubling me. After weighing the pros and cons, I may choose to settle down anywhere."

He paused, then added, "Once it's decided, it won't be changed."

This is both a statement and a commitment.

Although it was said in a very subtle way, Liang Liangwei understood.

After all, their business is firmly established there, and changing their base would be a huge challenge, so they wouldn't easily cross that line.

But as he said, if he encounters something that requires him to weigh the pros and cons before making a final decision, he will also make a careful choice.

Once decided, it cannot be changed.
