Xuxu heard him and somehow his concern for her made her heart melt. She explained, "My battery died."

After a little bit more explanation, she walked up to him and embraced him with all her might. She meekly rested her head on his chest. "Ah Sheng, everything is great right now."

All his rage, jealousy, and grievances all vanished with her embrace.

Yan Rusheng stretched his hands and hugged her back. He then bent his head to kiss the top of her head.

He thought to himself, "Xuxu, everything… is indeed great!"



Yan Rusheng was swamped with work lately.

He held a mouse in his hand and a cup in the other. His eyes darted from end to end on the computer screen as he read through Flourish & Prosper's stock analysis.

In the midst of his work, the office door swung open without a prior knock. Yan Rusheng remained unbothered for he already knew who it was that had stepped inside his office.

"President Yan, Mr. Charles from Country Y would like to have dinner with you at the Beautiful Metropolis Hotel, 7 p.m. tonight." Wen Xuxu shut the door after her then walked towards him.

Yan Rusheng didn't even need to think twice. He then said to Xuxu, "Ask him to scram."

Xuxu halted her steps and glared fiercely at him. "Yan Rusheng!"

"I won't go," Yan Rusheng said, he was hell-bent with his decision. "Stop wasting your time, I won't meet him."

He would rather die than meet the man, otherwise he might end up beating him to a pulp if he saw him.

Xuxu didn't coerce him and spoke in a relaxed manner, "In that case, I'll meet him myself instead."

She turned around to leave.

This dumb woman dared to threaten him! Yan Rusheng glowed in rage as he looked at her retreating figure.

He knew that if he didn't agree, she would really meet him.

So… he gnashed his teeth. With threat seething through his voice, he told her, "I can't promise you that I would behave like how you would have expected."

Xuxu spun around happily and met Yan Rusheng eye to eye, she was glowing in excitement and satisfaction. "You're going there to discuss business, not to yield to him."

Yan Rusheng could not help but feel miffed when he saw Xuxu's giddy, exuberant expression etched on her face. Is this how he was going to be subdued by Xuxu from now on?

He was having reluctant thoughts in his mind, but in the end, gave in and barked out a command, "Come here."

Xuxu blinked but she didn't move. Instead, she asked cautiously, "Why?"

"Give me a kiss." Yan Rusheng pointed at his rosy lips — the corners of his mouth curled into a playful smile. "This is the condition in return."

What condition was that? Does Flourish & Prosper belong to the Yans or Wens?!

She had worked so hard for Flourish & Prosper and he still wanted to discuss conditions with her.

Wen Xuxu was dumbstruck with what Yan Rusheng had to say. He stared at him and said, "You're really shameless."

She sighed in defeat, went forward and bent her body before giving him a quick peck on the lips

The series of actions was seamless.

It was too swift for Yan Rusheng to enjoy the kiss as she immediately left after.

He licked his lips to savor the lingering aftertaste of the kiss. He enjoyed it thoroughly and wished that he could taste it again.

Every time they had such intimate encounters, the feeling was too wonderful for words.

He felt like he was getting addicted.



In a luxurious private room, two gorgeous men of different nationalities shook hands, each with a different attitude.

"Hi, Mr. Charles." Yan Rusheng gripped his hand tightly and stared at him with hostile brooding between them.

He just could never tolerate someone who had an interest in his woman.

His mood right now was exactly how he felt when he saw the wretched guys in school sending Wen Xuxu love letters; he also wanted him gone.

Now he finally understood how possessive he could be.
