Meal

“No, Boss, I wish you a pleasant meal.” Dong Xuewen placed the dishes on the dining table, then gracefully tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, untied her apron, and said goodbye.

Although the beautiful young woman was captivating, it was clearly not the right time today.

Chen Xiao said, “Alright, then I’ll see you out.”

Upon hearing this, Dong Xuewen quickly waved her hand, “Boss, please stay, I’ll come again tomorrow.”

“Ah, alright then, are you really not staying to eat together?”

“......” Dong Xuewen.

“Thank you for your kind invitation, perhaps another day.”

“Hmm, that’s fine too.”

......

After entering the elevator, Dong Xuewen placed one hand over her heart and the other on her burning cheek.

Her mind was a jumble of various images.

As she approached the first floor, she suddenly startled, then shook her head, gave a self-deprecating smile, composed herself, and gracefully walked out of Binjiang No. 1.

In the restaurant,

Xi Yunru was charming and captivating.

Knowing Chen Xiao was coming back, she had specially dressed up according to his preferences.

She wore an off-white athletic tight-fitting top and light grey stretchy fitness pants.

Her waist was slender, and her figure was full.

Chen Xiao pulled her over and said:

“Yunru, did you miss me?”

Xi Yunru’s face was flushed like peach blossoms, vibrant and captivating, and she nodded slightly.

Her perfect figure deeply moved Chen Xiao.

His fingertips glided along her soft curves, and his nose was filled with a refreshing fragrance.

“Shall we eat?” Chen Xiao said.

“Mm.”

......

Chen Xiao finally opened the treasured fine red wine, raised his glass for a toast, and the deep red liquid flowed down, rich and mellow.

The music was melodious, and the red candles flickered.

Chen Xiao finally tasted the long-awaited delicacy of the human world.

In Tibet, he had once thought he would never have the chance to taste it again.

So at this moment, he cherished it especially, with deep affection and careful appreciation.

After three rounds of drinks,

Chen Xiao brought the food to the gym.

This was the starting point of everything, the beginning of their acquaintance.

Having been hungry for a long time in the desolate Tibet.

Chen Xiao’s craving for food reached its peak.

The two ate and chatted, mostly about stock market knowledge, but also touching on other topics.

......

Chen Xiao was originally a person who cherished and protected women,

But alas, Xi Yunru was too beautiful.

It was late afternoon.

“Grrr…” Chen Xiao’s stomach rumbled.

Xi Yunru snuggled into his arms and playfully complained:

“I told you to eat first.”

Chen Xiao smiled, “I still want to eat.”

“......” Xi Yunru.

......

In the restaurant, a table full of food remained untouched, already completely cold.

Chen Xiao picked a few microwave-suitable items, heated them up, and then brought them to the bed.

“Come, Yunru, you must be exhausted too, right?”

“......” Xi Yunru.

“Mainly, you worked hard.”

“I’m not tired, why don’t we…”

Xi Yunru quickly said, “Why don’t we eat quickly, I want to sleep after eating, I’m so tired.”

......

After they finished eating, they fell asleep in each other’s arms.

Chen Xiao only slept for an hour before getting up and heading to the study.

Xi Yunru looked like she would sleep until tomorrow.

The sleeping beauty was alluring, and Chen Xiao couldn’t resist kissing her several times until Xi Yunru protested by turning over and weakly waving her hand, only then did he leave contentedly.

He opened Su Tang’s latest company report.

The purchase of Dayang Group shares had already cost 3.6 billion.

Only over 500 million in cash remained on the books.

Tomorrow was July 19th, which was the last day of the first wave of decline.

Then it would rise by 35 percentage points.

In the first wave of Dayang Group’s market, Chen Xiao believed it would be easy to make over a billion.

He just didn’t understand why Dayang Group would plummet by 55% during the month from July 31st to August 28th.

Chen Xiao held his phone, hesitating whether to call Yan Bingqin and ask.

Although the two had just experienced life and death together,

But she was Yan Bingqin, and after returning, she would definitely not disclose core interests to him because of personal feelings.

Unless… he really married her.

But that was impossible.

No matter how good Yan Bingqin was, he wouldn’t let her become his burden.

As he was thinking, his phone vibrated, and Chen Xiao couldn’t help but smile when he saw it.

Because it was Yan Bingqin calling.

“Hello? Sister Qin, how can I help you?”

Yan Bingqin’s tone was not good, still angry about Chen Xiao’s breaking his word in Chahake’er.

“I want to treat you to a meal, Young Master Chen, would you do me the honor? To thank you for your ‘careful’ attention in the cave!”

Chen Xiao smiled upon hearing her angry words, “Sorry, Sister Qin, I’m busy.”

“You!”

“Sister Qin, this time it’s really not intentional, I really have something to do, how about the day after tomorrow, I’ll treat you then.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Bingqin’s mood eased a bit, “Alright then, I’ll wait for your call the day after tomorrow.”

“Mm, goodbye.”

......

After hanging up the phone, Yan Bingqin pondered, “This time it’s really not intentional???”

Bastard!

All the previous times were intentional!!!

Chen Xiao didn’t notice his slip of the tongue; after hanging up the phone, he put on his clothes and went out.

He was afraid that if he stayed at home, he wouldn’t be able to resist waking Xi Yunru up again and continuing to torment her.

This girl was already overloaded.

Although his heart was restless, Chen Xiao still had some pity for women.

He went to the basement and got into the fiery red Ferrari 458.

With a roar of the engine, this sleeping, alluring beast was awakened.

Normally, one would warm up the car for a few minutes, but Chen Xiao was not a car enthusiast, nor a collector.

A car was just a car, a tool; even though it was worth several million, it wasn’t worth wasting two minutes of his time.

He pressed the accelerator and drove straight out of the basement.

A Land Rover naturally followed behind.

The evening breeze in Jinning was not as cool as in North Province, but Chen Xiao still opened the convertible top.

He immersed himself in the muggy air, blending into Jinning’s fiery night.

The supercar streaked past the neon lights.

That red silhouette remained in the hearts of many passersby.

Arriving at 1912 Bar Street, Chen Xiao got out of the car and strolled around.

He had no particular destination in mind tonight; he had never been to a bar before, and since he was nearby, he decided to go in and take a look.

However, before he even reached the entrance, two heavily made-up beauties hooked their arms through his, one on each side.

“Handsome, can you buy us a drink?”

Chen Xiao looked back at the Ferrari not far away, then at the two beauties, and immediately realized he had become prey.

“No.”
