Chapter 98 - 98: Forever
Fang Yuan’s cheeks burned, and her body felt a warm sensation. An unfamiliar emotion coursed through her heart. Was it because she was touched? If not, then why was her heart racing?
“I want to be with you every day,” Bo Yi whispered, holding her close like a kitten, nuzzling his face against Fang Yuan’s.
Fang Yuan didn’t resist the intimate gesture; she didn’t push him away. After a moment, she calmly said, “It’s time to go.”
Upon dropping Fang Yuan off at the company’s entrance, Bo Yi still seemed reluctant to part. He lowered his head and spoke to the girl in his arms, “1’11 bring you some afternoon tea later. Is there anything specific you’d like to eat?” Fang Yuan raised an eyebrow. “Are you really not busy?”
Bo Yi replied, “I have some free time.”
In the driver’s seat, Mu Qing couldn’t help but be taken aback. Master Bo, you have two meetings in the afternoon, three business partners to meet, and over ten documents to review… Are you genuinely not busy?
“I’m not hungry,” Fang Yuan insisted as she prepared to exit the car, but Bo Yi clung to her even tighter. “Let me hold you for a little longer.”
Fang Yuan protested, “I’m going to be late!”
“Just a little while longer,” Bo Yi implored, taking in a deep breath of her fragrance, unable to let go.
“Please don’t send me food this afternoon,” Fang Yuan sounded slightly exasperated. “I’m swamped.”
“Is there anything I can assist you with?” Bo Yi inquired.
“No need,” Fang Yuan replied, finally managing to extricate herself from his embrace. She hurriedly headed toward the company.
“Master Bo, it seems like Miss Fang Yuan couldn’t wait to leave,” Mu Qing commented, watching Fang Yuan depart and then observing Bo Yi’s unwavering gaze fixed on her.
“Oh, by the way, the restaurant manager asked me to pass these to you,” Mu Qing added, turning on Fang Yuan’s phone and sending over a dozen photos to Bo Yi. The images captured moments from Bo Yi and Fang Yuan’s meal and were quite attention-grabbing.
If Bo Yi hadn’t witnessed it himself, he wouldn’t have believed it. As he gazed at Fang Yuan, his eyes radiated a tender and adoring light. Even though Fang Yuan was lost in thought, gazing out the window without noticing his gaze, it didn’t deter him from admiring her earnestly. What could be going on in her mind at this moment? Her eyes were clear, free from any trace of impurity.
He swiped the screen with his slender fingers, perusing the other photos. Each shot was well-composed. He stated calmly, “Give them a reward.”
Mu Qing promptly transferred 10,000 yuan to the restaurant manager.
“Actually, Master Bo, I took a few photos as well…” Mu Qing sent over some of his covertly taken pictures to Bo Yi. These images captured Bo Yi holding Fang Yuan and both of them gazing at the scenery.
“Master Bo, please understand that 1 didn’t seek any benefits. I only took those pictures because 1 thought both you and Miss Fang Yuan looked exceptionally captivating…” Mu Qing was worried that Bo Yi might reprimand him, considering he had taken the photos without permission.
Bo Yi remained silent. After a few seconds, Mu Qing’s phone chimed with a WeChat transfer notification. Mu Qing’s eyes widened in astonishment. It was a transfer of 99,999 yuan from Master Bo. What did this number signify?
Suppressing his excitement, Mu Qing asked in confusion, “Thank you, Master Bo, but what does this amount symbolize?”
Bo Yi meticulously explained, “It signifies that Yuanyuan and 1 will be together forever.”
Mu Qing instantly regretted asking that question. Somehow, he felt like he had just eaten a mouthful of dog food!
Bo Yi set his two favorite photos as his wallpaper and lock screen, taking one last lingering look at the company building where Fang Yuan had disappeared. With reluctance in his voice, he said, “Let’s head back.”
Mu Qing couldn’t help but detect the yearning in Master Bo’s tone. Well, it had been less than five minutes since Miss Fang Yuan left, and he was already missing her. Tsk tsk.
At the Bo Group.
Cheng Yuqi arrived with six sets of afternoon tea for the receptionists, and their faces lit up with delight.
“Lady Yuqi, it’s been too long! You’ve brought us treats as soon as you came!”
“And it’s the afternoon tea from the Fan Building, no less. We can’t believe our luck with such a luxurious treat!”
“For years now, Lady Yuqi has been spoiling us with delicious food.”
“We’ve missed you. Lady Yuqi, you’re becoming more and more stunning.”
“We’re truly fortunate to have a Young Madam like you! Your beauty, talents, and generosity have left many wealthy daughters envious!”
Cheng Yuqi graciously accepted the compliments and responded with a smile, “Oh my, there’s no honey in this afternoon tea. You all have such sweet words…”
“Lady Yuqi, we’re speaking from the heart. Your beauty is undeniable. Could you share your skincare secrets with us?”
One of the receptionists gazed at Cheng Yuqi’s flawless complexion with admiration. Her skin was impeccable, devoid of any blemishes.
Another receptionist chimed in, “I doubt we can afford Lady Yuqi’s skincare products. They must be quite luxurious..”
