BXBX NOVEL Chapter 216: Of Course, Happier
After breakfast, Rong Yan dropped the little guy off at the Li Family’s Old Mansion and, after giving him a flying kiss goodbye, returned to the car.
The man in the car was dressed in a business suit, looking tall and imposing with his long legs crossed and a laptop resting on his knees. He was clearly busy, with an earpiece hooked to his left ear, giving instructions to someone on a video call. His chiseled profile was the epitome of determination and nobility!
So it’s said that a man is at his most handsome when serious!
A man who is already handsome becomes even more captivating when he works intently.
Probably hearing her enter the car, the distinguished man said to the person on the other end of the video call, “Pause the meeting, take a break.”
Then he removed his earpiece, turned to Rong Yan, and asked, “Did Duidui go back?”
Rong Yan was caught off guard by his sudden pause of the meeting and answered after a brief pause, “Yes, Mrs. Lin had Nanny Wang take him back. I told him I would pick him up after I’m done with my work.”
A hint of desire flickered in Li Shengxiao’s eyes as he scanned her smooth small face, “Where will you go later?”
Where to go later… Rong Yan thought for a moment, “I should go back to the office. I have quite a lot to do today. The trainee program at AQis starting filming, and then there’s the movie you gave me yesterday; there’s a kickoff ceremony today that I need to attend.”
She had told Estelle about her plans to snatch Rong Weiwei’s movie role, and although Estelle did not quite agree with her taking on the film at this time, she did not say much, just discussed the arrangements for the next agenda with her.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Li Shengxiao closed his laptop and instructed Gu Ming, “To KT.”
“Yes, Mr. Li.”
Gu Ming turned the car around, and the black Bugatti steadily made its way toward KT Entertainment…
The scenery outside the car window rushed by.
Rong Yan belatedly asked, “Li Shengxiao, what are you doing at KT, is there something going on?”
Li Shengxiao narrowed his eyes, somewhat displeased.
Couldn’t he go to KT without reason?
“I’m taking you there!” His handsome face remained composed, but his voice was imperious.
“If you’re really busy, you don’t have to…” Rong Yan initially wanted to say ‘you don’t have to take me if you’re busy,’ but looking at his tightly pressed lips, her eyes brightened, and she suddenly changed her tune, “However, if you have time to take me, I’m certainly happier-”
I’m certainly happier!
With that one sentence, Li Shengxiao’s mood suddenly improved and he wrapped his arm around her waist, “I have time!”
Gu Ming driving in the front had gotten used to such scenes; no matter how busy the BOSS was, he always had time for Miss Rong!
Twenty minutes later, the car glided to the entrance of KT Entertainment.
“Miss Rong, we’re here.”
“Okay.”
Rong Yan opened the car door and was about to get out when she suddenly paused, her clear contrasting eyes intensely fixed on the man sitting opposite her.
“What’s wrong?” Li Shengxiao, who was rarely the object of such focused attention from her, lifted his phoenix eyes slightly, his pinky curving over the laptop—a subconscious reaction that those familiar with him knew signified his nervousness or concern about something.
Rong Yan stared at him for three seconds then suddenly leaned forward, swiftly kissed his cheek, and hurriedly slipped out of the car, “kissgoodby.”
The unexpected touch of soft lips against his left cheek sent ripples through Li Shengxiao’s heart. Just as the ‘mischievous’ woman was about to make her escape, he abruptly captured her wrist and pulled her back toward him..
