The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Shen Yanran retreated cautiously, completely unaware of the hospital bed behind her. She lost her balance and fell directly onto it.

Li Zhanting strode over with his long, powerful legs. When he saw Shen Yanran, his sexy lips curled up slightly. "I didn't expect that Miss Shen would call me a rogue while her body tells a different story... I just don't like this position. Can you change it?"

"Change my ass!" Shen Yanran, her face flushed red, threw the pillow above her head at Li Zhanting.

Li Zhanting slightly turned his body and easily dodged her pillow attack, even commenting on her suggestion to switch to his sister, "Switching to my sister won't work, I don't like her."

Shen Yanran was speechless for a moment. She really didn't know if he didn't understand or was pretending to be stupid. In any case, it was too embarrassing.

"I don't care who you like, I don't like you. Please stay away from me, okay?" Shen Yanran deliberately kept a cold expression on her face. She didn't want to give Li Zhanting any hope, nor did she want to give herself any illusions.

Li Zhanting narrowed his eyes, seemingly trying to determine the truthfulness of her words.

After a while, Shen Yanran thought that Li Zhanting would give up or angrily turn around and leave, but what she got in return was a deep rejection from the man, "No."

Shen Yanran felt that life was so difficult. Her relationship with Gao Yufeng was already a mess, and now there was Li Zhanting, such a domineering and aggressive man. It seemed that no matter how she refused, it was useless.

Shen Yanran calmed her chaotic emotions and then said sincerely, "Mr. Li, you have a large and wealthy family, you can have any kind of woman you want, why does it have to be me? I really don't deserve this from you."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhanting's lips curled into a wicked smile, his gaze fixed intently on Shen Yanran, "But I like you just the way you are."

Shen Yanran suddenly felt like she was punching cotton. No matter what she said or did, Li Zhanting always had an attitude of "what can you do about it?"

She really didn't know what to do.

"So what exactly do you like about me? I'll change it, okay?" Shen Yanran said helplessly.

Li Zhanting raised an eyebrow, his unfathomable eyes flashing with intense light. "I love that you reject me."

Li Zhanting's answer immediately blocked all of Shen Yanran's paths. She was in a dilemma, whether she changed her ways or not.

Seeing Shen Yanran's adorable conflicted and helpless expression, Li Zhanting smiled indulgently and said, "Alright, stop overthinking and come eat."

Whether out of anger or embarrassment, Shen Yanran's blush remained, and she pouted slightly, refusing, "You can eat it yourself, I'm not eating it."

"Really not going to eat?" Li Zhanting opened the insulated lunch boxes one by one, and the entire ward was instantly filled with an enticing aroma.

At this moment, Shen Yanran's stomach also started growling, making her extremely embarrassed. She wished she could disappear into the ground.

Li Zhanting chuckled softly, though his voice was low, Shen Yanran could hear it clearly in the unusually quiet ward.

Speechless, Shen Yanran picked up the blanket from the bed and covered herself, pretending she hadn't heard anything.

However, Li Zhanting did not intend to let her go like that. After all, she was weak and had not eaten all day. No matter how unwilling she was, he had to feed her the porridge.

Looking at Shen Yanran, who was wrapped up in a small ball on the hospital bed, Li Zhanting smiled indulgently.

As he brought the congee over, he gently tugged at her blanket. "Shen Yanran, come out and drink the congee."

Shen Yanran was furious and refused to compromise easily. She would rather starve to death than drink a single drop of porridge from his bowl!

Li Zhanting had clearly lost his patience. He yanked the blanket off her and pulled her tightly into his arms.

Shen Yanran felt a chill run down her spine, her body trembling slightly. Before she could react, she heard a deep, cold voice from above, carrying an unyielding tone: "Shen Yanran, obediently drink your porridge. I'll leave after you're done, or don't blame me for being impolite..."

Shen Yanran twitched her lips. Honestly, when has this man ever been polite to her? Every time, he makes her blush and her heart race before he's satisfied.

Besides, she said she wouldn't eat it and that's it. If she were to back down and eat it now, wouldn't that be a slap in her own face?

Shen Yanran gently raised her head, meeting the man's deep gaze, and still firmly refused, "I won't eat it, you can leave."

Li Zhanting's thin lips curved into a handsome smile, his gaze burning as he locked onto her trembling, cherry-blossom-like lips, and said, "Shen Yanran, I've already given you a chance, but you didn't want it. So I have no choice but to be blunt..."

Shen Yanran was slightly taken aback, unsure of what he meant by "being impolite," but she knew she had to get out of this ambiguous position first.

However, as soon as she struggled, the man's noble and elegant face lowered, resting against her forehead. He looked at her with a deep gaze for a moment, and then his thin, sensual lips pressed against hers...
