‘That doesn’t make sense!’
Placing her left hand in front of her chest and resting her chin in her right hand, Xia Wei’an began thinking about it.
‘Di Xingchen is already 28 years old and we’re in such a liberal society. An outstanding CEO like him should have a lot of pretty girls lining up to woo him. Logically speaking, he should be an expert in romantic relationships. Why does he seem like a newbie?’
‘No, I have to give it another try.’
Xia Wei’an thought for a while and quickly came up with an idea. She immediately bit her lip and took small steps to approach Di Xingchen. She then reached out to tug his shirt and said in a coquettish voice, “Lower your head, I have a secret to tell you.”
“There are only two of us here, so you can feel free to say anything.”
With Di Xingchen’s eyes still fixed in front, Xia Wei’an curbed her urge to roll her eyes and continued to say coquettishly, “I just want to whisper it into your ear.”
She lifted her head and looked at Di Xingchen petulantly, her eyes full of expectations. Unable to resist it, he obediently lowered his head.
The corners of Xia Wei’an’s lips curled into a triumphant smile, and she quickly reached out to put her arms around his neck. With a kiss on his cheek, she exclaimed, “You’re so sweet!”
Di Xingchen’s body stiffened abruptly, and he suddenly stood straight like he had gotten an electric shock, completely forgetting that Xia Wei’an’s hands were still hanging on his neck.
After being pulled by him, Xia Wei’an’s forehead was slammed against his chest. Although it was a little painful, she could hear his heart beating like a drum.
Ding!
The elevator reached the first floor, and Di Xingchen quickly exited the elevator like he was fleeing.
His talent was amazing, and he had dominated the world of business for several years. He had long developed the ability to remain collected and composed at all times. It was Xia Wei’an’s first time seeing such a flustered expression, and she couldn’t help but grin like a fool. ‘My idol is so adorable!’
Due to time constraints, they chose to have their meal at a cafe near the office.
Xia Wei’an was a bona fide foodie. As soon as the dishes were served, she was immediately attracted to the various types of cakes and desserts that Di Xingchen ordered. She hurriedly put her bag down and rolled her sleeves up before digging in heartily.
‘This world is unfair. Some people are indeed favored by God, just like me. I’m a foodie, and I can eat whatever I want without ever getting fat.’
“Mmm, this one’s tasty.” She took a big mouthful of cake, and a moment later, the waiter served another dish. She frantically licked the cream off her fingers and reached for it. “This one’s delicious too.”
Di Xingchen did not move and simply looked at her ugly dining etiquette. However, he somehow felt blissful. When she was almost done, he asked, “Are you here to see me for something?”
Recently, their skincare brand had achieved success in developing a new skincare product, which would be launched and sold on the shelves soon. The Xia Group wanted to have their female artiste Chu Yan’er be the product ambassador. He was aware of that because Assistant Ji had reported it to him before.
Due to the fact that the company’s products were all high-end and luxurious, they would only consider international A-listers to be the brand ambassadors. Chu Yan’er was only a local B-list actress who wasn’t pretty enough to be the brand ambassador either. Hence, Assistant Ji politely turned Xia Zhenwei down when the latter proposed the matter.
However, Di Xingchen received an anonymous call last night which claimed that Xia Zhenwei had handed the contract to Xia Wei’an and instructed her to find a way to make Di Xingchen sign it. The caller even said that Xia Wei’an married him, only because of his money.
