Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 556: The CEO’s Desperate Pursuit in the Flames of Regret
Wan Tianning strode ahead, with a sullen face, quite flaunting the aura of a domineering CEO.
Lin Yue followed behind her, looking like a mistreated child bride, with his tall figure drooping his head, appearing pitiful.
Lan couldn’t help but catch up to Wan Tianning, softly reminding, "Miss Wan, President Lin looks quite pitiful."
"Am I not pitiful? I just helped him pay off eight million," Wan Tianning shouted loudly.
Lin Yue whispered, "Don’t worry, I will pay you back."
"With what?" Wan Tianning turned to look at him and questioned.
"Would selling myself to you be okay?" Lin Yue stared intently at her, asking in a deep voice.
Wan Tianning: "..."
She was instantly shocked by his shameless remark, her face turning crimson.
"Shameless, indecent."
Wan Tianning angrily scolded him.
However, her expression didn’t really seem like she was genuinely angry, it had a touch of coquettishness.
Having followed her for so long, how could Lan not see through it?
Lips pursed, she quickly smiled and said, "Miss Wan, I’m heading off first. I’ll come and tidy up the things tomorrow, no rush, you don’t have to worry, just rest well."
"Lan, how can you leave?" Wan Tianning said urgently.
If she left, wouldn’t it just be her and Lin Yue at home?
"Miss Wan, I haven’t been home for a long time too, and my plants at home are dying." Lan quickly left in a hurry, not giving Wan Tianning any chance to persuade her to stay.
Wan Tianning stomped her foot angrily, then turned her head to glance at Lin Yue, whose eyes were gentle, and said angrily, "You’re still smiling. If it wasn’t for you, Lan wouldn’t have left."
"I’ll pack things up myself, where should I put them?" Lin Yue picked up the suitcase.
Seeing Lin Yue working like an ox for her, Wan Tianning’s mood instantly felt much better.
The eight million she gave out didn’t feel like a loss, and she immediately started directing Lin Yue on what to do.
"Alright, you can take a break now. But, are you hungry? Why does it feel like I’m really hungry?" Wan Tianning touched her stomach.
"What do you want to eat?" Lin Yue leaned over and asked.
After being busy for so long, he was sweating all over.
However, it didn’t smell bad, in fact, there was a faint fragrance of fresh grass.
This reminded Wan Tianning of when she was young, picnicking with her family, tired from playing and lying on the grass, smelling the scent of the meadow.
There was an indescribable feeling of satisfaction and happiness.
"Stay away from me, you’re all sweaty and smelly."
Her body reacting beyond her control, Wan Tianning was both surprised and shy, quickly pushing him away.
Lin Yue sniffed himself, frowned, and asked, "Smelly? Then I’ll take a shower first."
"Wait, tell me what to order first. Hurry up and place the order because it’s hard to get deliveries at this hour, and if it’s any later, there’ll be nothing to eat."
"What do you want to eat?" Lin Yue asked again.
"I’m not picky, I’ll eat whatever you order. But I don’t like lamb or cilantro, anything but those two. However, it’s best not to be high fat and high calorie, you know, I’m a celebrity, I need to maintain my figure, preferably low-fat and low-calorie food; otherwise, losing weight afterward is too troublesome."
"You have weight loss troubles too?" Lin Yue frowned.
To him, Wan Tianning wasn’t at all fat, in fact, she seemed a bit too thin.
And she was young, with a fast metabolism, she shouldn’t have weight loss concerns at this age.
"What a joke, which actress doesn’t have these concerns?" Wan Tianning sneered.
"But I’ve watched your shows, and your persona there is as a foodie who never gains weight, often eating high-calorie foods."
"That’s for the show, that’s a persona, you know? Persona is not real, it’s not the real me." Wan Tianning rolled her eyes.
"Oh, so that’s not real, I thought that was the real you." Lin Yue murmured softly.
"So, you liked me because of the persona I set up?" Wan Tianning exclaimed.
Lin Yue said with a smile, "Of course not, I like you, the complete you. Since those aren’t the real you, I’ll slowly get to know the real you, being by your side."
"You don’t need to understand, just go away." Wan Tianning rolled her eyes, urging him to take a shower and not stink up her surroundings.
Lin Yue walked away with a smile, while heading into the guest room, he said, "I’ll place the order now, you rest for a while, you’ll have food soon."
Wan Tianning curled her lips and went upstairs to rest.
She took a shower and lay in bed for a little nap.
No idea how much time passed when she heard a knocking on the door.
"Come in, stop knocking."
She thought it was Lan who came.
Besides Lan, very few people come over.
"Dinner’s ready." A soft voice sounded beside her ear.
She was too sleepy to pay much attention.
Thinking it was Lan, she said with her eyes closed, "Can’t get up, help me up."
Soon, a pair of strong hands helped her up.
Wan Tianning leaned on the person’s shoulder: "Lan, why is your shoulder exceptionally broad today?"
"It’s me." Lin Yue looked at her adorable, silly expression and couldn’t resist gently touching her cheek.
Actually, he wanted to kiss her awake.
But worried she would get angry, he abandoned this crazy idea.
Wan Tianning opened her eyes, looking dazedly at Lin Yue, with a moment of confusion.
"Lin Yue?"
"It’s me, are you awake now?" Lin Yue asked in a gentle voice.
Wan Tianning murmured, "Why do you speak so softly? It sounds so nice."
"Really? Then let me say a few more words," Lin Yue leaned closer, whispering a couple more sentences.
Looking at Lin Yue’s lips so close, his handsome face was so near; Wan Tianning’s brain stalled for a moment. Almost uncontrollably, she leaned in to kiss him.
Lin Yue was initially a bit stunned but quickly responded, kissing her back more passionately.
This time, Wan Tianning truly woke up.
Gazed at by his kiss, her eyes widened, showing an incredulous expression.
"Lin Yue, what are you doing?"
After a moment, Wan Tianning finally regained strength, forcefully pushing Lin Yue away, angrily questioning him.
Lin Yue replied innocently, "You kissed me first."
Wan Tianning was taken aback.
Seemed like she kissed him first?
However, she was groggy then.
"I was sleepy."
"So, you’re putting the blame on me?" Lin Yue retorted.
Wan Tianning felt guilty, naturally not arguing with him further.
"It’s not like it’s the first time, no big deal, hurry up, I’m starving."
Lin Yue curled his lips, obediently stood up, taking her downstairs to eat.
But once downstairs, they saw seven or eight dishes on the dining table.
Wan Tianning frowned.
Annoyed, she murmured, "Why put takeout on plates? I order takeout so I don’t have to wash dishes. You’re so pretentious, there’s no one else here, why put them on plates?"
