968 Turned Failure into Victory!

PA Wen was stunned. He looked at her and asked nervously, "She won't ask us to break up, will she?"

"Hah, you think too much," Xiao Yaojing chuckled and stared at PA Wen with her chin resting on her hands.

"I think you'd better not mention your mother when you're in my house," she reminded him.

PA Wen was not an idiot.

However, there was something else distracting him. PA Wen could clearly see Xiao Yaojing's milky skin under her collar from his current position.

He gulped unconsciously. He wanted to look away but he could not take his eyes off her body.

Xiao Yaojing did not notice PA Wen's unwavering gaze on her as she was thinking about something else. "I think my mom has a motive for inviting you over," she said slowly.

PA Wen still did not respond. Feeling suspicious, she glanced at him and noticed his intense gaze. She dipped her head and looked down, then made a surprised noise. She thought he had no urges like a thousand-year-old monk but apparently he felt desire too.

Xiao Yaojing leaned forward to give him a better view and said teasingly, "Hey, I am talking to you. Why are you silent?"

PA Wen was speechless.

Minx. This woman was a real minx.

"Nothing. I was just wondering what to buy for your parents," replied PA Wen smoothly, clearly avoiding the question.

Xiao Yaojing mocked his timid attitude silently. She reached out to cup PA Wen's face, tilting it towards hers. "Look at me when you are talking to me. That's basic manners, don't you know?"

PA Wen felt like crying. If she wanted to talk about manners, he could not face her now.

He rested his hand on hers and asked instead, "Aren't you busy?"

"I am efficient; I have already completed my work for today. Don't try to avoid my question," prompted Xiao Yaojing.

PA Wen had failed to change the topic.

He was still holding her hand. Suddenly, he stood up, kissed her lips and murmured, "Can you help me with these documents then?"

Xiao Yaojing's delight over the kiss was immediately destroyed by PA Wen's next sentence. Gu Juexi was such a bad influence on him.

PA Wen looked at Xiao Yaojing who was seething silently and did not dare let her hand go. "Think about what to eat for lunch later if you have nothing to do."

He wanted to spend time with her as well but the CEO had gone out again. He had tons of work to complete right now so he was unable to keep her company.

Xiao Yaojing's big eyes looked around, then she stood up and walked over to him coyly. Leaning towards him, she whispered into his ear, "I can keep you company while you are doing your work. Did you like my posture just now?"

Heat crackled in the air.

PA Wen held his breath again. 'Why couldn't this woman stop teasing him?'

Xiao Yaojing observed PA Wen's reaction. She was delighted and silently cheered. She was about to close the gap between them when PA Wen suddenly pulled her into his embrace.

Xiao Yaojing was speechless, staring up at him with wide eyes.

PA Wen kissed her gently without saying anything.

He had turned failure into victory!

Ye Yuwei and Qian Yikun were sitting facing each other. Qian Yikun was his usual self. He was very gentle and concerned about Ye Yuwei, and kept asking about her recent updates.

"As I needed to follow up on the Bai Family incident, I did not manage to come back on time. I am sorry for not being able to explain things during that critical period," explained Qian Yikun softly while holding his cup. He looked at Ye Yuwei who was seated opposite him.

"I understand," replied Ye Yuwei hesitantly, still not able to accept his fondness.
