That's not the case anyway.
Lei Yong looked at him with an inquiring gaze, and Chen Xiao nodded.
Only then did someone go to open the door.
When the door opened, a dignified and sensual beauty stood outside.
Chen Xiao was instantly stunned.
"Are you... Zhang Ting?"
He asked with some uncertainty.
Because her change today... was too significant.
Previously, Zhang Ting’s host attire looked somewhat unprofessional.
But looking at her now, Chen Xiao thought there was a famous program host standing outside the door.
"Mm."
Zhang Ting nodded, her swan-like neck elegant and moving.
"Is there, is there something?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Yes..."
Zhang Ting's gaze quickly swept over Lei Yong and the other two, a little shy and a little nervous.
Looking at the captivating Zhang Ting, Chen Xiao, who was in a slightly tipsy state, suddenly perked up.
Dressed like this in the middle of the night, her intention was already very clear.
What Chen Xiao was considering was... whether to give her this opportunity.
After a long while—
Chen Xiao said, "Brother Lei, you guys go to the next room to rest first."
Lei Yong scrutinized Zhang Ting with his eagle-like sharp eyes, then nodded slightly to Chen Xiao.
"Yes, Boss."
After speaking, he secretly pointed to his wrist.
Chen Xiao nodded, because there was a one-button alarm on his wrist.
As long as he pressed it, Lei Yong would receive it immediately.
When the room door was closed, leaving only Zhang Ting and Chen Xiao.
The atmosphere clearly changed.
Zhang Ting had hosted many shows and could remain calm and composed in front of thousands of viewers, but she was incredibly nervous at this moment.
The man sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed in a relaxed state brought her an inexplicable pressure.
"Yan Bingqin sent you, right?" Chen Xiao asked casually.
Zhang Ting's delicate body trembled, and she looked at Chen Xiao in surprise.
"I... I..."
Chen Xiao smiled, "Don't be nervous. This outfit of yours is worth over a hundred thousand, and the most likely possibility I can think of is that it came from Yan Bingqin."
"Tell me, do you have any purpose?"
Zhang Ting quickly shook her head, "No, no, she just told me..."
At this point, she stopped, not knowing how to continue expressing herself...
Chen Xiao smiled, "Alright, then you can do as Yan Bingqin told you."
"Oh."
Zhang Ting first breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that Chen Xiao hadn't chased her out.
But then she froze.
This... how to do it?
"Hmm? Is there any other problem?" Chen Xiao asked when he saw her not moving.
"I..."
Zhang Ting's delicate and pretty face was flushed with a deep blush.
The expensive, form-fitting evening gown accentuated her graceful figure, making her look as dreamy as a mermaid.
Especially the button on her neckline, which was under immense pressure.
"You... haven't... before?" Chen Xiao asked in surprise.
Zhang Ting nodded shyly.
Chen Xiao was very surprised, "Haven't had a boyfriend?"
"Had, had one..." Zhang Ting honestly said, "But it was only limited to holding hands or something..."
Chen Xiao suddenly understood. This girl was also a sensible person.
She knew to use the most precious things at the most crucial moment.
"Alright then."
Chen Xiao reluctantly got up.
He had thought he could sit back and enjoy, that she was a king.
Unexpectedly... she was a bronze...
...
The next day, seven in the morning.
Chen Xiao woke up from a soft dream.
He freed himself from Zhang Ting's arm, changed into a tracksuit, and left the house alone.
Most of the second-generation rich in Zijin Manor, after a night of intense battle, were still in sweet dreams at this time.
The manor's morning was exceptionally quiet.
Only some gardeners were tending to the flowers and plants, maintaining the lawn.
The freshly watered lawn, illuminated by the morning sun, looked vibrant.
Chen Xiao and Lei Yong, one in front of the other, ran rhythmically along the golf path.
The air in the suburbs was especially fresh, a sweet scent with a hint of earthy fragrance. Taking a deep breath, he felt completely refreshed.
The undulating terrain was a test of physical strength.
Running here was much more tiring than on a flat rubber track.
Chen Xiao had only run three or four kilometers when sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Good morning."
Beside him, Yan Bingqin, dressed in sportswear, revealed her perfect figure.
Chen Xiao slowed down, "Morning. Do you also have a habit of running?"
"I only run occasionally when I return to the manor. I heard you run often?"
Chen Xiao nodded, "Yes, for exercise."
Yan Bingqin smiled meaningfully and asked, "Last night... was it fun?"
Chen Xiao gradually stopped. Lei Yong automatically kept his distance from him, watching Yan Bingqin warily from afar.
He felt that although this woman was not on the same level as him, she could still be harmful to his boss if she wanted to be.
"Tell me, what is your purpose after all this effort?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Giggle giggle..."
Yan Bingqin chuckled, "If I had a purpose, would I be so obvious?"
"Go ahead and enjoy your beauty. I want to prove that as long as you marry me, I will absolutely not interfere with your private life, and for women like Zhang Ting, I will even help you find more."
"..." Chen Xiao.
"It can't be, Sister Qin. The Jinning Pharmaceutical matter was really a coincidence. You don't need to make such a big sacrifice for me."
Yan Bingqin smiled, "It's not really a sacrifice. Anyway, marriage is just like that."
"My marriage is destined to be a transaction. Rather than finding some other second-generation who is uneducated and messes around after marriage, it's better to choose someone I find pleasing to the eye and capable, and then help him find women that I approve of."
"..." Chen Xiao.
