Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Mr. Li is joking, right?” she forced a laugh, “Haha, Mr. Li lacking a girlfriend is definitely the funniest thing I have ever heard.”

Li Shengxiao, however, was not laughing; his sharply defined, handsome face was like God’s most perfect sculpture, his deep, eagle-like gaze fixated on her from start to finish, filled with aggression, “I do not like to joke, you might consider it.”

Rong Yan’s perfect composure cracked. Is this for real?

“I have a boyfriend.”

Li Shengxiao’s gaze darkened.

Rong Yan instantly felt danger and swallowed hard, “We’ve been together for five years, and our relationship is very strong; although he can be somewhat childish at times, he’s the person who loves me the most in this world, and I love him very much too.”

The child was not even five, it would be odd if he weren’t childish.

Her Rong Duidui was already the world’s least childish five-year-old!

It’s uncertain whether Rong Yan’s words had had an effect, but the grip on her wrist gradually loosened, and she felt that oppressive aura lift off of her. She quietly let out a sigh of relief and patted her chest.

Oh my gosh, she had been scared to death just now.

After he released her, Li Shengxiao, with an inscrutable expression, walked past her, “It’s too late today; the driver has already left. I will have the servants prepare a guest room for you, and tomorrow when the driver is back, I’ll have him take you home.”

…Does this mean he wants her to stay?

Having just gone through a confession, Rong Yan indicated she didn’t want to stay another second!

“It’s okay, I can walk back on my own.”

“The nearest urban area is 20 kilometers away from here. Are you planning to walk for several hours?” Li Shengxiao stated domineeringly, “I do not like to repeat myself!”

“…”

The servant, noticing what was going on, quickly stepped forward to mediate, “Miss, you should stay. It’s really too late, and no one but us uses this road. It’s not safe with so few people around at night. Mr. Li is also considering your safety. When the driver arrives tomorrow morning, I will have him take you back. Is that okay?”

Seeing no room to decline, Rong Yan begrudgingly nodded, “…Thank you.”

“It’s no trouble at all,” the surprised servant waved her hand.

This was the woman who had rejected their BOSS’s confession; she had to be extremely careful to take good care of her.

She kept sneaking glances at Rong Yan, almost wishing she could read her like a book…

One had to admit, the woman the BOSS had personally brought back was indeed very beautiful. But it’s not like there haven’t been beautiful women chasing after their BOSS over the years. Besides her beauty, the servant didn’t see what was different about her.

Still, this was the first time she saw someone who dared to reject the BOSS. Overall, at least in terms of courage, this Miss surpassed everyone else she had seen!

“Miss, please follow me, I will take you to the guest room.”

Rong Yan, unaware of her thoughts and out of respect for Li Shengxiao, reluctantly agreed, “Um, okay, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

The servant led her upstairs, and before going up, Rong Yan again thanked the certain someone for the ‘forceful’ hospitality, her politeness indicating a clear sense of distance.

With everyone gone upstairs, Li Shengxiao returned to the sofa, his fingertips drumming on the tabletop.

Everyone in the living room held their breath, all lowering their heads, pretending they hadn’t just witnessed their BOSS being bluntly rejected.

“Thud, thud, thud…” The sound of fingertips drumming on the tabletop seemed to strike upon each person’s heart.

Just when the others were almost holding their breath, suddenly, the dignified man stopped his motions, lifted his head, and his chiseled features looked even more striking, “Go check her background.”

Who she was needed no explanation!

The butler reacted the fastest, bowing his head immediately, “Yes, young master.”
