"I’m just talking theory on paper, who knows whether I’m leading you down a bright path or into a wrong turn? So, you can’t trust or depend on completely. I’m just a consultant and your personal advisor; the actual work still needs a professional team, and you need to improve yourself. You can’t just practice martial arts, you need to exercise your mind constantly!" Li Yan said seriously.
Her complete trust and reliance sowhat satisfied his vanity as a man. After all, people like Wen Qianyi, Zhang Yurong, and Hai Fu are all very independent and strong won who don’t need much help from him. However, he also knew that his ability in company managent and expansion shouldn’t mislead her.
After hearing his words, Li Jie was sowhat annoyed and snorted coldly, "What do you an by that last sentence? Are you saying I’m all bust and no brains?"
"Absolutely not! What I an is that learning a bit more when you have ti and exercising your mind well will definitely be beneficial for you. Of course, if your bust gets larger, that’s a good thing too..." Having just gotten out of bed, and thinking that since returning from City H, he hasn’t had the chance to rekindle passions with Li Jie, now discussing bust size made him feel a bit stirred inside.
"Go away! I’m hanging up!"
Back then, Li Jie had been daring because she had personally witnessed several deaths, and they were all well-trained elite agents, including herself who almost got killed by a Si Country agent’s gun, knowing that there were dozens if not hundreds more of such elite agents, her chances of survival seed slim. Faced with death, everything else beca trivial and nothing to worry about. Now back to normal life, being teased by him again, she felt shy and embarrassed.
...
After returning two phone calls, Li Yan, lying in bed, continued to call Zheng Yixuan. Zheng Yixuan had no particular issues; he simply asked about Li Yan’s situation and if everything was okay. So things were inconvenient to discuss over the phone, but vague and simple words could help both understand each other’s aning.
As Li Yan had guessed, the third brother hadn’t fallen out with him over the minor value of the antique. Although, in this matter, Li Yan seed a bit like he was siding with outsiders rather than the tenth brother, but their thods and channels were not as professional as Rose and her team. This ti, they also managed to share most of the pressure for the wanted notice with the tenth brother’s Rose team.
Li Yan suspected Zheng Yixuan didn’t learn from He Bin about him taking 1.5 million International Coins from Sonia and her team, otherwise, he might not have such a good attitude. He didn’t actively explain either, since he wasn’t motivated by money; taking the money was to get ’Rose’s trust, otherwise who would trust you when you’re trying to diate in good faith? In such situations, the scene often becos ’either a friend or a foe.’ He also didn’t ntion how the tenth brother’s n threw bombs at the place where he still was.
After finishing the call, Li Yan guessed they had all finished breakfast, and it was ti to get up.
Just as he pulled back the quilt, there were two knocks on the door, and then soone opened it and ca in directly.
"I’ve been calling you for so long! Still not up yet? You lazy bug!" Zhang Yurong ca in, laughing and teasing, then walked over to the wardrobe to help him find clothes.
Since Li Yan wasn’t wearing underwear inside his pajama pants, he had to carefully pull the quilt back to cover his body while talking.
"Have you already had breakfast?"
He found Zhang Yurong’s attitude a bit off today. How co she not only ca in to wake him up for the second ti but also ca into the room and was helping find clothes, with such a... feminine tone?
Yes, today her deanor was very feminine! Although she is herself a woman, a stunning beauty at that, originally whether during their initial unfamiliar and cold interactions or her usual composed attitude as a strong woman, Li Yan always felt a sense of distance and lack of feminine aura, as if facing neither a girl nor a wife but a female CEO. Her gracefulness and composure, her deanor and aura had all blended into her everyday life with a CEO’s presence.
But just now, he saw a sunny side of a girl and a more approachable, intimate tone!
Just like... Wang Fei, when singing, whether in music videos, on television, or on stage, she exudes a strong presence and an air of untouchable coolness. But when you watch her act in movies, even in Wong Jiawai’s films where she plays her cool deanor, she becos more approachable, revealing a cute side of the cold, glamorous girl. (Of course, the era of ’Chungking Express’ was before Wang Fei got married and had children).
"No, we’re all waiting for you! I just went for a workout, and when I ca back and knocked on the door, you hadn’t been woken up yet. By the ti I finished bathing, you’re still sleeping! Are you a pig?" Yurong laughed easily.
Although she seed particularly close today compared to usual, perhaps because he was used to her previous attitude and style, Li Yan couldn’t shake off the feeling of oddness—it seed like she was intentionally putting on an act. He silently asked himself whether he was a masochist, why did he feel unnatural and unaccustod when she turned gentle and intimate?
Deciding to test if it was an act, Li Yan deliberately stretched lazily, then, looking bashful, said in a low voice: "Maybe I had a wet dream last night, so I’m a bit weak and slept extra."
"What?" Even while finding clothes, Zhang Yurong’s efficiency was very high. "This set? Or this set?"
Seeing she hadn’t caught what he said, Li Yan was speechless, sending chard glances into the blind. "I’ll handle it myself later, it’s okay to just wear pajamas at ho, right?"
