Chapter 186: A certified flirt?
Eminence Headquarters.
"I-Is that Chief?"
"Who else? Are you blind?"
"For fuck's sake, he is carrying a woman. How could you not be shocked?"
"He is a man. Although he hasn't shown his face to the public, but only his status and wealth can get him the title of the Most Eligible Bachelor. What made you think that he will be single?"
"Why are all desirable men taken?"
"What are you guys talking about? The woman with him is the CEO of Rosette."
"Her? But I have seen President Leanne. It's not her, I think..."
"You should check today's headlines then."
While the employees were busy discussing all these sorts of things currently going on in their heads, Yu Mei had another struggle going on.
"They are all looking at us. Put me down, please," She buried her face in his chest.
Jun Zixuan did not pay attention to her words as hugged her closer to him.
"Hey, I can walk!"
"You were limping a moment ago," The man coldly muttered.
"Good Morning, Chief. Have a nice day," All the employees bowed and greeted the man as soon as he walked past the receptionist desk.
Jun Zixuan paused in his tracks. His eyes slightly narrowed, "Is she invisible to you?"
Their expressions turned awkward as they followed his gaze and glanced at the woman in his arms, "Good Morning, President Leanne," They bowed once again.
Left with no choice, she looked at them and forced a smile, "Morning everyone," Her grip around his neck tightened while she tried to strangle him.
Unfazed, the man walked straight inside the elevator holding her firmly.
As soon as he put her on the couch in his office, she glared at him, "How could you take me out like this?" She asked, pointing at herself, "I don't have my makeup on, I am wearing these baggy pyjamas, my hair is in a mess. What a woman dislikes the most is to look ugly. Don't you know that?''
He walked towards the glass desk and picked up a small remote before pressing a switch on it. The translucent glass walls turned opaque with the surface being a mirror.
He sat beside her and pulled her onto his lap, "See there," he pointed at the opposite wall.
She raised an eyebrow and followed his gaze before looking at their reflection in the mirror.
Bringing her hair to one side, he placed his chin on her neck, "Ugly, huh? The most beautiful people will shy away at your statement."
She paused for a split second before leaning back on him, her gaze remained fixated on his reflection, "Beautiful indeed."
"Flirting with me?" The corner of his lips tugged up.
"I guess I am.''
"Not shy anymore?" He nibbled her earlobe.
Her eyes widened slightly as another image of their morning workout flashed in her mind. She buried her face in her palms and ignored the man. Did he have to remind her?
He helped her sit on the couch as he stood up. One of his hands remained tucked inside his pocket while he stroked her hair with the other one, "We will not do it again if that makes you uncomfortable," She missed the twinkle in his eyes.
As he turned around, she grabbed his hand and pulled him back to the couch, "Stop assuming things. I-I liked it but-"
"But you're shy again?" His deep teasing voice made her raise her head to look at him.
"You...were acting on purpose," She punched his chest.
He laughed before pressing a soft kiss on her forehead, "On a serious note, we will not do anything that you don't want."
She smiled and pressed a kiss on his lips, "Say, Zixuan, have you always been this good with women?"
"Why do you think so?"
"You look and talk like a certified flirt."
"With you only."
"What about your ex?'' There was an undertone of jealousy in her words that even she did not realize.
"She is not my ex. We-"
"Knock Knock Knock.''
"Come in."
Steward Gu stepped inside with a bag in his hand as he bowed, "Master, Young Mistress...'' He passed the bag to Jun Zixuan, "I have got the things you wanted."
"Thank you," Jun Zixuan nodded at the man.
Steward Gu bowed again before looking at the couple. Although his holiday did not last long but as long as they are together, he was sure he will be getting more holidays. With a smile plastered on his face, he walked out of the office room.
Jun Zixuan held her legs and pulled them up slowly before putting them on his lap.
"What are you doing?"
"Preventing a swollen ankle," He pulled the front zipper and grabbed an ice pack from the bag before pressing it gently on her ankle.
She pressed her hand on the couch and leaned back, swaying her body back and forth slowly, "Should I consider myself the luckiest woman to have a man like you?"
"Try to fall like that once again and I will twist your ankle until you get a broken bone."
The corner of her lips twitched, "You're unromantic."
"You want me to be romantic?" He raised an eyebrow at her.
"That will be cringe," She made a face at him, "Moreover, I am too smart to be seduced by your romantic advances."
"Is it?" His face had the expression of 'Try me now and see if I could seduce you'.
She gulped, "It is."
He laughed, "I won't bother trying it then. My wife is cold-hearted."
She pursed her lips, "Girlfriend. Not wife."
"Whatever suits you."
Later that day.
Jun Zixuan closed the laptop and leaned back on the swivel chair, "Mei, I am do-" He paused looking at the woman who was fast asleep on the couch.
He entered the room attached to his office and grabbed a blanket before walking towards her.
He slowly removed the sketching pad lying on her chest and the pencil peeking out from her messy hair before tucking her properly in the blanket.
'Ring Ring.'
Jun Zixuan answered the call and walked towards the window, "Have you picked him up from the school?" The reply from the other side made his gaze darken.
"Guard this place. I'll be there,'' He hung up the call and grabbed his suit jacket from the swivel chair before striding towards the door.
His footsteps halted and he took a swift turn before walking towards the couch. After placing a soft kiss on the sleeping beauty's forehead, he left.
