How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?

As dusk fell, the sunset in the sky was gradually replaced by darkness.

A gleaming Bentley Mulsanne drove smoothly and at a steady speed away from the airport.

“Mr. Lin, we’re a bit pressed for time. We’ve arranged guest rooms; you can go to your room to wash up and change once you arrive at the hotel,” Zeng Ziyan said to the dusty man beside her, sitting in the back seat.

"Hmm." Lin Xuedong leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

Zeng Ziyan didn't bother him anymore, only secretly admiring his handsome face. She thought to herself, soon he would be completely hers!

Tonight, she prepared two adjacent guest rooms.

It was ostensibly for resting and changing clothes, but she had secretly prepared aphrodisiac incense in his room. It was brought back from abroad by Chen Meiyuan; it was colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

Once she and Lin Xuedong have a real relationship, given the reputations of both families in S City, a marriage will be inevitable.

As she pondered this, she resembled the White Bone Demon coveting the flesh of Tang Sanzang. A sly, greedy glint appeared in her eyes as she curled her red lips into a smile.

The banquet hall was brightly lit and filled with the clinking of glasses.

Soft, soothing music drifted gently through the spacious banquet hall.

The celebrities and dignitaries, holding wine glasses, chatted amongst themselves in small groups.

Inside, the air was filled with the fragrance of fine clothes and the aroma of wine wafting from clinking glasses, adding an indispensable touch to the banquet's atmosphere.

Just then, a dazzling couple arrived at the entrance.

The man was tall and handsome, with an exceptionally good figure. Underneath his royal blue handmade suit was his usual white shirt, and his blue and yellow diamond-patterned tie further accentuated his mature, noble, and elegant demeanor.

The woman was charming and alluring, her hair styled in a high bun. The diamond necklace around her neck shone like stars.

She wore a glossy black halter-neck, backless evening gown that perfectly accentuated her graceful figure and revealed her snow-white skin.

Zeng Ziyan, with her tall and slender figure, standing at 168cm, leaned against Lin Xuedong in high heels, exuding an aura and charm that was no less than his; on the contrary, they were quite a good match.

Tonight's banquet also marked the first time Lin Xuedong had ever brought a female companion other than Lin Lan. Moreover, standing beside him was the Zeng family's daughter.

Therefore, the handsome man and beautiful woman attracted everyone's attention. This further aroused the curiosity of the crowd, and the public media reporters present eagerly handed over their microphones, vying to conduct interviews.

"Mr. Lin, Ms. Zeng, it's rare to see the two of you together. Please wait a moment so we can take some behind-the-scenes photos."

"Mr. Lin, is Ms. Zeng your date tonight? Rumor has it that the Lin and Zeng families are planning a marriage alliance. Are you planning to officially announce your relationship tonight?"

"Miss Zeng, congratulations! You and President Lin are a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"

Microphones were thrust in front of the two, and camera flashes went off... Click, click, the reporters were as enthusiastic as if they had seen a rare mirage.

Lin Xuedong gentlemanly extended his large hand to shield Zeng Ziyan from numerous microphone attacks. His protective gesture only fueled the excitement and enthusiasm of the reporters.

"Mr. Lin, after the marriage, does the Lin family plan to re-enter the real estate industry?"

"With you two working together as husband and wife, and your two families joining forces, you're bound to achieve great success in S City. When, then, would you like to announce your auspicious date?"

"After marriage, will you each manage your respective groups, or will the husband be the breadwinner and the wife stay at home? How many children do you plan to have...?"

Just as they were surrounded by reporters at the entrance of the venue, Lin Lan, lifting her skirt, arrived gracefully with ten security guards. With the security guards' help, the situation was somewhat brought under control after they separated the reporters.

"Dear friends, thank you for your concern for the Lin Group and President Lin. Ms. Zeng is President Lin's special assistant. They just returned from a business trip, which is why they came together. Please refrain from making unfounded speculations." Lin Lan answered the reporters fluently. "Regarding the development of the Lin Group, please refer to official announcements. As for President Lin's personal situation, please be kind and give him space. Thank you again for your attention."

"Ms. Lin, you've always been Mr. Lin's date at banquets and parties. It's rare to see Mr. Lin with another woman these days, so the public is quite interested in his love life. Why don't you just openly reveal a little bit?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin is a universally recognized business god. Could you please tell us that Ms. Zeng is more than just an assistant?"

Although the reporters were separated, their sharp criticisms continued to relentlessly attack them.

Lin Xuedong straightened his suit and took two steps forward. He waved to the reporters present, his confident demeanor immediately attracting a flurry of camera flashes.

Her sensual, thin lips parted slightly, and her voice was exceptionally gentle and humble. "Ziyan is currently my special assistant; we are simply boss and subordinate. As Miss Lin Lan said, we just returned from a business trip and entered the venue together. Tonight, Ziyan is representing the Zeng Group at this business banquet, not as you might think. She is not my date; please don't misunderstand."

"However, Mr. Lin, in our opinion, you and Ms. Zeng are a very good match. Moreover, your two families have a very good relationship. Is there any possibility that things could develop further?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin, a marriage between Zeng and Lin would be the talk of the town! Both of you are unmarried, so there's a good chance things will develop between you, right?"

Zeng Ziyan looked up at the sound, revealing a gentle smile. This whole media frenzy was also orchestrated by her. Seeing that things had gone well, she stepped forward to give a brief and to-the-point response. "Thank you for your hard work, fellow reporters. I am indeed currently only Mr. Lin's special assistant. We just returned from a business trip. As for the matters you are concerned about, I believe Mr. Lin has his own arrangements. Please do not speculate wildly."

"Alright, everyone, it's almost time. We need to go into the venue now. Excuse me." Lin Lan stepped forward, naturally took Lin Xuedong's arm, and pulled him into the venue.

Zeng Ziyan maintained a polite demeanor, nodding apologetically to the reporters before following closely behind.

As soon as Lin Xuedong entered the banquet hall, people gathered around him. CEOs and beautiful women constantly chatted and exchanged pleasantries with him, but he remained calm and composed, handling the situation with ease.

"Ziyan~." Chen Meiyuan, who was not far away, quickly spotted Zeng Ziyan and walked towards them with a smile.

"Brother Lin, hello, we meet again."

"Hello, is Chairman Chen here?" Lin Xuedong nodded slightly in greeting.

"Brother is talking to Chairman Zeng and Chairman Lin over there. Why are you and Ziyan so late?" Chen Meiyuan blinked her eyes. Her thick black eyelashes and brightly colored eye makeup exuded a bold and unrestrained chic.

“We just got back from a business trip and came straight here after we got off the plane,” Zeng Zi said with a smile, clutching her silver handbag studded with sparkling rhinestones.

"You guys chat, I'll go say hello to them first." Lin Xuedong raised a handsome eyebrow.

Lin Lan wasn't interested in chatting with them and followed Lin Xuedong. "Brother, let's go together."

"Hmm." Lin Xuedong responded, and gracefully propped his arm around her.

Lin Lan readily agreed, easily taking his arm and walking towards Lin Zhicheng. Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the two women behind her, noticing their whispering, and a sense of unease crept into her heart. "Brother, don't get so close to Zeng Ziyan, she's got ulterior motives."

"Hmm, the dress is beautiful today." Lin Xuedong didn't comment, but instead changed the subject. Because Liu Sisi and Lin Lan were close, he didn't want to mention too many women other than Liu Sisi in front of her.

"Really? Sisi helped me choose it." Lin Lan smiled brightly; she was very happy.

Lin Xuedong smiled but remained silent, his longing for his woman growing stronger.
