Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 558: The CEO’s Desperate Pursuit in the Flames of Regret
The sudden unexpected business of Wan Tianning left Lin Yue completely baffled.
However, after spending a lot of time with her, he managed to figure out a pattern.
If the enemy retreats, I advance; if the enemy advances, I retreat.
Since she was angry, he decided to pretend he didn’t know, and continued teaching her how to exercise as if nothing had happened.
At first, Wan Tianning was quite awkward and didn’t want him to touch her.
But she couldn’t resist Lin Yue’s fitness expertise; he tried out every piece of fitness equipment, looking very professional, just like a real fitness coach.
Especially when he took off his shirt and wore a white vest, revealing his strong muscles, which made Wan Tianning’s heart itch.
Clearly, it hadn’t been long since she ate, yet she couldn’t help but feel a hunger that made her swallow.
"What’s wrong?"
Lin Yue came over, his arms propped on either side of her, lowering his head to ask in a deep voice.
He was sweating from the workout.
Yet, it wasn’t unpleasant at all. For some reason, every time he got close, she could always smell a faint grassy scent on him.
Especially after he sweats, the scent became even stronger, always stirring an impulse in her.
An impulse to kiss him.
Now, that scent was back again.
Wan Tianning quickly got up, trying to avoid him.
However, she got up too quickly and accidentally bumped into Lin Yue.
Lin Yue quickly wrapped his arm around her waist to prevent her from falling.
"What’s the rush?" Lin Yue looked at her gently, his voice low and hoarse.
Damn it. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Wan Tianning frowned heavily.
Does he have to be this seductive?
Is he doing it on purpose?
"Lin Yue, are you doing this on purpose?" Wan Tianning became more annoyed the more she thought about it.
It’s too much; he’s actually seducing her.
Does he think she hasn’t seen the world?
But honestly, it’s really tempting.
Being held by him, her heart was pounding loudly, so much that she wondered if he could hear it?
What if he hears it?
That’s it; he’ll definitely think she’s still interested in him.
"On purpose? Ningning, what are you talking about? I don’t understand," Lin Yue asked, looking innocent.
Damn it.
So handsome, dominating when he’s assertive, yet innocent and pure when he’s at ease, evoking a strong protective desire.
Clearly, she’s still a young girl, but being teased by him, her maternal instincts were overflowing.
"You don’t know what’s on purpose? Are you deliberately seducing me? Lin Yue, you’re doing it on purpose."
Wan Tianning said somewhat resentfully.
Saying that, under Lin Yue’s surprised gaze, she hooked her arm around his neck and kissed him.
Hm.
Since he deliberately seduced her, then don’t blame her for being impolite.
After all, she just paid off eight million for him, so taking a bit of advantage is nothing.
Honestly, Lin Yue was a very good debtor.
Knowing that he owed her, she was the employer.
So when she hooked him by the neck for a kiss, he immediately deepened it, kissing back even more passionately.
Wan Tianning was left dizzy and breathless from the kissing.
Suddenly, she was lifted by her waist and placed on the fitness bench.
"Lin Yue."
Wan Tianning gasped, calling out Lin Yue’s name.
Lin Yue was already kissing down her neck.
However, just as the two were lost in the kiss, about to progress further, Wan Tianning’s phone suddenly rang.
The piercing ringtone snapped Wan Tianning back to reality, and she hurriedly pushed Lin Yue away to jump off the bench and grab her phone.
Lin Yue didn’t insist either, taking a step back with a slight smile as he watched her, face flushed, run out of the gym with her phone.
But after finishing the call, Wan Tianning didn’t return.
Instead, she said at the door, "I’m tired, going to rest first. You continue your workout!"
"I’ll rest too. What’s your plan for tomorrow?" Lin Yue quickly asked.
"No plan, and nothing to do with you," Wan Tianning said before leaving.
Lin Yue smiled, understanding this was just her stubbornness.
That’s fine; if she’s going to be obstinate, let her be. He just needed to be more proactive, and she wouldn’t be as awkward anymore.
"Damn that Lin Yue, bastard Lin Yue, he did it on purpose. Luckily, I stopped in time and didn’t make a huge mistake. So infuriating."
Wan Tianning returned to her room and cursed Lin Yue fiercely.
At this moment, her phone rang again, showing an unfamiliar number.
Wan Tianning frowned and picked up to answer.
"Who is this?"
"Miss Wan, I am your fan; I really like you," a man’s voice came through on the other side.
Wan Tianning was terrified, her face turning pale, and she immediately threw the phone to the ground.
Even then, the phone kept sounding with declarations: "Miss Wan, I really like you, please give me a chance."
"Ah."
Wan Tianning screamed in fright and turned off the phone immediately.
However, her scream alerted Lin Yue outside, who dashed in.
"Ningning, what’s wrong?"
Lin Yue rushed in and held her, asking.
Wan Tianning, her face pale, said, "A man called to confess, but how did he get my phone number? This is my private phone number; it shouldn’t be leaked."
Lin Yue picked up the phone, opened the call log, and took a look.
He noted down the number from the caller ID.
"It’s alright, I’ll investigate and definitely find out who it is. With me here, you don’t need to be afraid," Lin Yue reassured her.
Wan Tianning nodded, subconsciously leaning against him.
But soon, she pushed him away: "I’m fine, you go out!"
Lin Yue didn’t insist, and he left the room.
As soon as he went out, he took out his phone to make a call, asking the person on the other end to trace this number.
The next day, before Wan Tianning got up, Lan came by, but Lin Yue stopped her first.
He told her about the fan call from yesterday, asking if she had any clues or knew who might have leaked Wan Tianning’s phone number.
Lan was shocked.
"What? Miss Wan’s phone number got leaked? How is that possible? No one outside the circle knows it. Even people within the circle wouldn’t leak it casually; that’s against the rules. If found out, it’ll be over. Usually, it’s not leaked unless there’s a deep-seated grudge," Lan said.
Lin Yue said, "I’ve already hired someone to investigate this; we’ll find out. Also, Ningning isn’t a timid person; she’s braver than most girls. Why was she so scared when receiving a fan’s call, to the point of throwing her phone away? Did something happen before?"
Wan Tianning’s reaction yesterday was indeed abnormal, not something she would typically do.
However, he didn’t dare to ask her yesterday, afraid of pushing her further.
But Lan has been her assistant for years and should know something about her past.
Sure enough, Lan sighed and said, "I can’t believe after so many years, Miss Wan still hasn’t moved on from that incident and is still afraid."
"What happened?" Lin Yue frowned.
