With a smile, she put on her gloves and began peeling shrimp.

"Bosch wines have been selling quite well in China over the past six months; you can see them everywhere."

Yan Zhixu: "Hmm, the publicity is quite good."

Liang Liangwei thought of Le Peier: "The endorsement... is not bad."

Yan Zhixu neither agreed nor disagreed and did not respond.

Liang Liangwei glanced at him and asked, "After that incident in Shacheng, did you and Le Peier see each other again?"

Yan Zhixu: "No."

No? Didn't Le Pei'er say she was going to pursue him? Hasn't she done anything about it?

Yan Zhixu added, "The higher-ups at her company have invited me to dinner a few times, but I declined."

In commercial endorsements, it's usually the business that hosts the banquet for the spokesperson; how could it be the other way around?

This clearly shows whose intention this is.

It turns out that it wasn't that they weren't taking action, but rather that they couldn't find a reason or opportunity to meet privately. So they created opportunities through senior company executives, which is also a viable method.

She smiled and handed the peeled shrimp to the man: "Open your mouth~ Ah—"

Yan Zhixu was somewhat surprised: "You peeled it for me?"

Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "You pick out the fish bones for me, and I'll peel the shrimp for you. It's a little bit of fun. Hurry up, my hands are tired."

Yan Zhixu smiled and bit off a piece of shrimp.

He moved slowly and deliberately, and even casually sucked on her juicy fingers, his gaze towards her full of meaning.

Liang Liangwei's fingertips trembled slightly, her mind screaming like a groundhog: Ahhh, this jerk is blatantly flirting with her—

I'm so excited! I really want to flirt back!!

But now is clearly not a good time.

Just wait, she's a very patient fox hunter. She'll lie in wait, waiting for her chance to strike, and once she gets her chance, hmph...

Man, you can't escape my grasp!

The meal ended perfectly amidst their flirtatious banter.

Yan Zhixu postponed the morning's tasks to the afternoon, making the afternoon's schedule more packed.

Before he had finished his meal, Xu Chaofeng called to urge him to attend a meeting at 1:30.

Liang Liangwei generously said, "You go ahead with your work, I'll just wait for Yan Bei'an here."

Yan Zhixu hesitated for a moment: "You don't have a car, can I send one over to take you home later?"

Liang Liangwei felt happy, but she didn't accept the arrangement: "Really, there's no need. Yan Bei'an can give me a ride. He's not so lacking in manners. Besides, I can call a car. It's very convenient."

Yan Zhixu reluctantly agreed: "Let me know when you get home."

Liang Liangwei nodded quickly: "I know."

She dropped the man off at the mall entrance and watched him walk away until he was out of sight. Then she went back to the Starbucks next door, ordered a dessert, and ate it slowly.

Yan Beian sent word that he would arrive soon, and sure enough, he appeared 10 minutes later. Liang Liangwei sighed that the uncle and nephew were really going to miss each other today, only missing each other by a hair's breadth.

Yan Bei'an sat down opposite her, looking exhausted from his journey.

Liang Liangwei ate her cake and looked him up and down: "Didn't you sleep well last night? Your dark circles are so heavy."

Yan Bei'an stared at her for a long time without saying a word, which made her heart skip a beat: "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Yan Bei'an gave a soft snort.

That heartless little thing! He really didn't sleep well last night, but who was to blame? She's acting like she's completely uninvolved, only concerned with being all lovey-dovey with that god.

Liang Liangwei misunderstood: "You...you and Fang Xun...did that all night last night?"

Yan Bei'an looked bewildered: "What, all night?"

It took him a while to understand what she was thinking from her mischievous look, and his handsome face darkened: "What nonsense are you talking about? I sleep in a separate room from him."

Liang Liangwei's eyes widened in surprise: "What? You and him... such a good opportunity to be intimate, yet you're sleeping in separate rooms?"

Yan Beian gritted his teeth, a blush of embarrassment flashing across his handsome face: "He's just a student. Even if I were a beast, I would never do anything to him."

Liang Liangwei was even more surprised: "...From what you're saying, nothing ever happened between you and him?"

Yan Bei'an: "..."

He shouldn't have said that.

The only emphasis was: "He is still a student."

Liang Liangwei shrugged: "But he's an adult."

Yan Bei'an paused for a moment, then said, "Anyway, there's no rush."

What unexpected news!

Yan Bei'an, seeing her strange expression, became somewhat annoyed: "What's with that look? Am I wrong for protecting the students?"

Liang Liangwei suppressed a laugh: "That's right, that's right, Young Master Yan, you are so noble and virtuous, I admire you!"

Yan Bei'an: "Get lost! I don't care!"

He paused, looked at the woman's smug face, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Are you and him... really sure about your relationship?"

Liang Liangwei nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's confirmed~"

Yan Bei'an looked at him with a complicated expression: "Oh, then you got what you wanted. That's good."

Liang Liangwei: "You've been driving for a long time. Have you eaten?"

She asked the question casually, but she figured that since he was with Fang Xun, it was impossible for him not to have eaten yet.

Yan Bei'an replied, "Not yet."

Liang Liangwei: "You came over without eating? What about Fang Xun?"

Yan Beian: "I sent him back to school."

Liang Liangwei felt a little sorry for his exhaustion: "If you had come back earlier, you could have eaten with us. Your uncle just left."

Yan Bei'an looked mournful: "Didn't you reject me?"

Liang Liangwei: "I was just thinking that since you're with Fang Xun, why would I starve myself?"

Yan Bei'an remained silent.

Liang Liangwei: "Where shall I go with you to get something to eat?"

Yan Bei'an said dejectedly, "Never mind, I ate late this morning, so I'm not very hungry yet."

Changing the subject, he asked, "Did you run into my mom later?"

Liang Liangwei shook her head: "No, I don't know where Auntie saw me from, I didn't see her."

Yan Bei'an took out his phone and showed her a photo: "This is a photo taken by my mom."

Liang Liangwei leaned closer to look and saw a picture of her and Yan Zhixu on the escalator. The two were standing one behind the other, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.

Looking from this angle... it turns out Yan Bei'an's mother was on the other side back then.

Fortunately, they didn't do anything else intimate at the time, like holding hands or hugging...

Thinking about it this way, Yan Bei'an's reasoning is not entirely unreasonable.

Yan Bei'an: "My mom and a few other ladies went to look at skincare products, and they also had a spa appointment in the afternoon. They were busy."

As they were chatting, Yan Beian received a message from Xiao Ling: "Son, are you and Weiwei still together?"

Yan Beian showed the message to Liang Liangwei, and then sent a voice message to Xiao Ling: "I'm here, I'm here, she's right next to me."

Then he took a picture of Liang Liangwei and sent it to his mother.

Xiao Ling was delighted: "Your uncle is gone?"

Yan Beian: "My uncle's company is busy, so he left after dinner."

Xiao Ling: [Then you should accompany Weiwei shopping and buy her what she likes.]

Yan Bei'an: "Okay, okay, you're having a spa treatment, don't get distracted."

After sending the message, he showed Liang Liangwei the conversation between the mother and son.

Liang Liangwei chuckled: "Auntie wants you to go shopping with me, are you willing?"

Yan Bei'an casually replied, "Sure, I'm not very busy today anyway."

He glanced at Liang Liangwei and said, "Buy whatever you want. I'll pay for it. Consider it a... breakup gift."

Liang Liangwei scoffed, "Who wants your breakup gift? Do you think I don't have money to buy things? I earned an extra 90 this month."

Yan Bei'an choked for a moment, "Isn't it 90?"

300,000 a month, plus 600,000 from one meeting with his mother and two trips back to the old house—this little money-grubber…

Liang Liangwei's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that she had also received a message from Xiao Ling.
