“Where are you taking me?” she asked angrily, truly despising his “just come with me” duck-like domineering attitude.
He shrugged. “Where do you want me to take you?”
His words caught her off guard. She just wanted to see him, just wanted to beat him up, but as for the location, she hadn’t thought about it.
”A place where we can fight,” she said, her palm itching, desperately wanting to punch a human punching bag.
”I don’t fight with women. But if you want to release some energy, I can take you to that villa and continue what we didn’t finish last time,” he had anticipated that the Super Daily interview would turn her into an invincible iron-clawed tigress.
”What?” she raised her voice in surprise. Unfinished business?
Her first association was that kiss, and those dialogue lines with SM undertones like “I want you” and “I want to train you”. Damn, he was so shameless! Her face suddenly turned red.
”Causing destruction,” he glanced at her, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. “What were you thinking?”
She tried to suppress her blush. “I’m not going there.”
She was afraid of seeing holes in the wall made by other women working with him. No, correction – not “afraid”, but “disliking”.
”Then do as I say,” he controlled the steering wheel, smoothly driving.
”Hmph!” she turned her face away. This bad man, not showing any consideration at all!
He clearly knew how much she wanted to interview him, and they had gotten together because of this matter, but regarding the Super Daily’s extensive advertising of his interview, he didn’t even mention it, as if the person being reported on had nothing to do with him.
How dare he say he wanted her! If he truly wanted her to be his woman, why let the water flow into someone else’s field?
She glared at him resentfully, wishing she could bore two holes through his body. He always maintained that superior posture, his straight back, sharp eagle-like eyes, looking down condescendingly, even in his most difficult times, his spine remained perfectly straight.
Her gaze softened gradually.
He was actually very attractive, and this attractiveness wasn’t just from his handsome appearance and tall, upright figure. What was more captivating, making it impossible to look away, was his spirit.
His eyes were crystal clear and spirited, his gaze direct and unblinking, daring to look anyone in the eye without fear. His emotions were well-concealed, like a mysterious lake, impossible to see through, but definitely not without warmth.
His nose bridge was straight, full of heroic spirit, his chin and entire facial contours elegant, filled with an unyielding atmosphere. This man was full of domineering presence, yet his thoughts were incredibly deep. Whoever offended him would find him approaching silently and imperceptibly, the opponent completely unaware until they were taken down, not understanding how they collapsed.
Especially in the business world, with the slightest wind or grass movement, news would spread quickly, but when he emerged, his enemies only saw his disguised surface, failing to notice the precise calculations and calm waiting beneath, until he seized the perfect moment and struck precisely…
Suddenly, she shivered. She suddenly felt that this kind of man was actually very dangerous.
”Cold?” he asked.
She instinctively shook her head, continuing to look at him. His thin lips were the only soft part she had ever witnessed.
His kiss surfaced in her mind, each taste different. She had never been kissed so breathtakingly, as if about to be drawn into a whirlpool, to be devoured by him. But what shocked her more was that she, who had always been rebellious since childhood, actually persisted until the end, and still got lost in his boiling passion…
”Get out,” he stopped the car in an open-air parking lot.
By now, the sky had darkened.
”What kind of ghost place is this?” she looked out the window.
The surrounding area was a residential zone, with no shops, only a small Japanese restaurant.
”A place to eat,” he said concisely. “Get out.”
Eating is eating, why be so mysterious? She pursed her lips and did as he said.
”Hand,” he extended his hand to her.
”What for?”
”I want to hold it,” with a completely unreasonable tone.
”Dream on!” she spat, her ear roots heating up from his teasing.
He couldn’t be bothered to argue, directly grabbing her hand. She tried to pull away, but he held tighter. The more she tried to shake free, the firmer his grip, and they wrestled their way into the Japanese restaurant.
”Welco—”
Before the “me” could be spoken, Qinyan violently shook her hand, almost hitting the approaching beautiful woman.
The woman stepped back in shock. “May I ask… are you Mr. Wei’s guest?”
”Yes.”
She forced a smile to smooth things over. “You seem so… lively.”
Qinyan bared her teeth. Lively? She wasn’t some monkey in a zoo.
”Shall I show you to the usual seat?” the woman composed herself and displayed her service spirit.
Wei Zhanyue nodded.
”Please follow me,” she gracefully led the way in front, passing a series of private rooms.
How strange! From the entrance, the restaurant seemed tiny, but the interior was surprisingly spacious, truly a world within. Qinyan curiously looked around. Suddenly, a private room door opened, and a delicate woman with a small makeup bag walked out.
”Zhan… Zhanyue!” her timid voice called out in disbelief.
It was He Qianqian!
You bastard, Wei Zhanyue! She glared at him. He was notorious for being a playboy – it seemed every private room had his past or present lovers?
Wei Zhanyue remained expressionless, giving a slight nod.
He Qianqian stared at him infatuatedly. “Why haven’t you answered any of my calls? I went to Yihai Group to find you, but was blocked at the door. Don’t you know I’ve been looking for you?
He Qianqian was originally a delicate and pitiful water-like beauty. At this moment, her eyes were misty, making her even more endearing and lovable.
”I didn’t expect you…” Those watery eyes slid from Wei Zhanyi’s cold and aloof face to their intertwined hands.
”You two…” She looked at Qingyan, her eyes full of sadness and pleading.
Qingyan was furious. Damn Wei Zhanyi, look at the mess you’ve caused!
”You two take your time catching up.” Not wanting to be caught in the middle as the “bad woman”, she flicked her jade-like hand and stormed away, each step seeming to leave a murderous imprint on the ground.
”We’ll come back another time.” He turned to leave as well.
He Qianqian rushed forward, grabbing his sleeve. “Zhanyi, I…”
”Go review the contract. Our transaction ended a year ago.”
”How can you use a contract to restrain my heart? Zhanyi, I love you!”
During the time he was accumulating revenge, he had been so gentle, carefully protecting her to create a scene for the paparazzi of a man spending lavishly for his beloved. He had spoken countless sweet words to make her laugh – were those all fake?
”I’ll return all the compensation…”
Her manager came out, overhearing her words. “Qianqian, are you crazy?”
”I’m not crazy! Zhanyi, including the jewelry you gave me and the money transferred to my account, I’ll return everything. Can we start over? Please?”
