As soon as she opened her mouth, she was frozen by the man’s cold gaze and changed her address forcibly.
"Go on in."
"Okay."
Jian Simeng withdrew her hand hanging mid-air and followed the man.
Brother Tingshen had a severe cleanliness obsession, she had known since she was a child. Perhaps after all these years, his impression of her was no longer as deep, but it didn’t matter. From now on... she would strive to always stay by his side, becoming the person closest to him.
After all, Auntie had said, she was the first girl Brother Tingshen had agreed to meet with voluntarily. From the very start, her status was higher than others.
At the entrance of the western restaurant, Bo Tingshen lowered his eyes to glance at his wristwatch, and Pang Kai immediately caught on, returning him a knowing look.
"Brother Ye! Brother Ye, you’re here!"
At the advertising shoot site of Sky Ring Building, room 1019, Zhou Lu held a cappuccino in her hands. Seeing Ye Xian walk out of the elevator, she happily greeted her, "Haven’t seen you in days, Xiao Lu has missed you to death!"
"You got a day off, shouldn’t you be happy?"
"Not happy, not happy, not happy at all! A day without seeing the handsome Brother Ye, I feel my hormones are dropping!"
Ye Xian laughed and took the coffee she handed over. This little fool, she had her become her assistant to prevent her identity from being exposed and she wouldn’t say a word, yet even now she hadn’t realized it. Really don’t know what her reaction would be once she found out.
"Teacher Ye Xian! You’re here~"
"Sorry, sorry, I’m very sorry!"
The person in charge at the shoot site ran over to apologize as soon as Ye Xian arrived, "Sorry, it might trouble you to wait for a while. There’s another newcomer from Jiamei Legend shooting the advertisement with you. Just called to say they’re stuck in traffic. Although they only have a few shots, they need to be in the same frame with you, so it’s hard to shoot without them."
"No problem, I’ll wait for a bit."
Ye Xian looked at the time, it was still early.
"Thank you, thank you for cooperating!"
"Brother Ye, meanwhile, try my homemade strawberry-filled cookies!"
"Strawberry-filled cookies, you made these?"
"Uh-huh! I’ve been so bored at home these days. I thought of how Brother Ye loves strawberries, so I learned a bit from a pastry chef. Although the presentation isn’t much..." She opened a box and handed a piece to her, "But the taste should be okay."
Ye Xian took it, put it in her mouth, the fresh and rich strawberry filling instantly burst on her taste buds, filled her mouth with sweetness, she nodded in amazement, "Tasty, Xiao Lu, did you really make this? Are you sure you didn’t take it from the pastry chef to fool me?"
"Really! Of course, I made it. Brother Ye, how could you doubt my devotion to you, I personally..."
Halfway through, Zhou Lu’s phone rang, "Wait a minute, let me take this call!"
Ye Xian seized the moment and took two more pieces, putting them in her mouth, well, really sweet, more addictive with each bite.
Zhou Lu picked up the phone, not sure what she heard, but she nodded happily, "Okay, okay Brother Kai, I got it!"
Ye Xian raised an eyebrow, "Brother Kai? Who is that?"
"Pang Kai! Brother Ye, Pang Kai just said the CEO is having lunch at the SKY Western Restaurant downstairs today, and he’s already there..."
"Really?!"
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Xian stood up abruptly, her amber eyes sparkling brightly.
"Uh..." Ye Xian recovered some of her wandering gaze, "What’s up?"
"Nothing really, but if you were looking for the CEO, it’s a bit unfortunate, because he is booked with Miss Jian all day today, no free time."
"Miss Jian? All day? She’s... an important partner of the CEO?"
"Nope~" Pang Kai smiled, "The Jian Family and the Bo Family used to be neighbors, Miss Jian is a childhood friend of the CEO, they grew up playing together, have a very good relationship, she went abroad to study a few years ago, at the CEO’s alma mater, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Now she’s back and wants to apply at BHS. Once the CEO heard about it, he invited her out right away. Oh right, Miss Jian is going abroad for a competition today, the CEO was worried about her being a girl, so decided to accompany her, so the next few days there might not be much time as well, do you have something important for the CEO?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at her, only to realize that at some point, the little woman’s face had changed, eyes fixed on the two by the window.
That look made him inexplicably a bit flustered.
Did he go a bit too far in his performance?
By the window, the man’s side profile was serene, his smile clearer than a river, the woman stylishly stunning, exceptionally elegant, the two sat together chatting and laughing, looking like a perfectly matched couple.
Ye Xian’s intense gaze gradually moved from them across the entire restaurant.
The restaurant was empty, the only guests were them at a single table.
"The CEO... rented out the place?"
"...Yes." Pang Kai gritted his teeth, deciding to go all the way, "Miss Jian likes serenity, so the CEO booked the place just for her."
Heh...
Really?
