Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 709 - 675: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age (Part 2)
"What do you like to eat?" Mr. Zhan asked.
You Mei smiled and mentioned a place that turned out to be a nice private kitchen restaurant.
Mr. Zhan drove her there.
You Mei seemed to be a regular at places like this, expertly ordering some of the signature dishes.
"Has Mr. Zhan’s wife ever liked someone before?"
While eating, You Mei casually asked.
Mr. Zhan’s eyes darkened.
You Mei laughed and said, "It seems so; once the heart is lost, it’s not easy to get it back."
"It’s not lost, just temporarily misplaced. I’ll get it back," Mr. Zhan said firmly.
You Mei said, "For someone as outstanding as Mr. Zhan, retrieving it surely isn’t hard. However, a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; often, just because you’re nice doesn’t mean she’ll like you. Women’s affection is complicated, yet also simple. Let me offer Mr. Zhan a suggestion and see if it works."
"What suggestion?" Mr. Zhan was intrigued.
You Mei asked, "How does Mr. Zhan plan to give the gift?"
"How else to give a gift? Of course, just give it to her?" Mr. Zhan said.
You Mei chuckled, "You’re not just going to hand it to her directly and say, ’Here, a gift for you. See if you like it,’ are you?"
"Isn’t that how?" Mr. Zhan frowned.
You Mei said, "Of course not. Very few girls like receiving gifts that way. Of course, girls who are easily impressed are an exception. But Mr. Zhan’s wife is surely not a girl who’s inexperienced, so you can’t use that method."
"I humbly ask for Miss You’s guidance."
"I wouldn’t dare to call it guidance. You can listen to my method and try it out." You Mei smiled and shared her approach.
The two continued eating and chatting, and the conversation was quite enjoyable.
Mainly, You Mei was good at finding topics, and though Mr. Zhan was reserved, he shared quite a bit about him and Xia Luo.
"Here’s my business card. You can contact me if you need anything."
Before leaving, You Mei handed her business card to Mr. Zhan.
It only had her name and contact information, with no hint of her identity.
However, Mr. Zhan wasn’t interested in her identity and casually put the card away, not intending to contact her again.
After returning home, he followed You Mei’s suggestion, unwrapped the gift, and left clues for Xia Luo step by step as instructed.
When Xia Luo got home, the first thing she saw was a card on the coffee table.
It had three words written on it: Go to the kitchen.
Xia Luo curiously walked towards the kitchen.
There was also a card in the kitchen, which read: Open the lid.
Xia Luo hesitated before the lid, thinking it felt like a hidden land mine.
However, she still followed the instruction on the card and opened the lid.
"Hello, beauty. Could you do me a favor?"
Unexpectedly, instead of a land mine or food, there was a plush toy kitten inside?
This little kitten was incredibly cute, pure white, and could even blink and talk.
Xia Luo was both surprised and delighted.
She gently touched the little kitten’s paw and asked, "What do you want me to help with?"
"Go upstairs, go upstairs," the kitten chirped.
Xia Luo laughed, picking up the kitten to go upstairs.
"Find Mommy, find Mommy."
Upon reaching upstairs, the kitten repeated the phrase.
Xia Luo frowned, realizing that this kitten needed help finding its mommy!
But how was she supposed to know where kitty mommy was?
"Bedroom, bedroom."
So it was in the bedroom?
"Okay, I’ll take you to find mommy now." Xia Luo opened the bedroom door, holding the snow-white, adorable kitten.
Sure enough, as soon as she entered the bedroom, she saw a large cat on the bed, identical but twice the size.
"Little kitten, your mommy is here." Xia Luo smiled and placed the little kitten beside the big cat.
"Thank you, beautiful lady. As thanks, here’s a gift for you."
The big cat could speak too and stretched its head over, revealing a necklace hanging around its neck?
A sapphire necklace at that?
Xia Luo was stunned!
She removed the necklace from the cat’s neck.
The sapphire shimmered with a captivating blue hue.
"Do you like it?" Mr. Zhan’s voice rang out as he slowly walked over from the next room.
Xia Luo looked up, delighted, "Did you give this to me?"
"Do you like it?" Mr. Zhan didn’t answer her question but moved closer to ask again.
Xia Luo nodded, "Yes, I like it. Thank you!"
As she said thanks, her cheeks tinted with a faint blush, her eyes cast down, a picture of shy bashfulness.
Seeing her like this, Mr. Zhan couldn’t help but feel a stir in his heart.
How long had it been since he’d seen her show such an expression?
"Luoluo..."
Mr. Zhan walked up to her and leaned down to kiss her cheek.
Xia Luo’s face turned red, her breath quickened.
A fleeting taste wasn’t enough for him.
Unable to resist, he bent down, lifted her, and pressed her onto the bed, capturing those rosy lips.
However, just as he was getting deeper, Xia Luo pushed him away.
"No."
"Why?" Mr. Zhan’s eyes were tinged with red, his desire pushing him to the brink of madness.
Young love was always so intense and straightforward.
Looking at the girl he loved in front of him, the best way to express affection was to possess her, become one with her.
How could Xia Luo not sense his intentions?
Only...
"I’m sorry, really, I can’t." Xia Luo pushed him away and ran into the bathroom.
Mr. Zhan sat on the bed, feeling defeated.
She seemed so happy to receive the gift, so why did she push him away?
Was it because it was him?
So, she pushed him away when she was clear-headed?
"So, how did it go? Was she happy with the way she received the gift?"
Mr. Zhan’s phone buzzed; it was a message from an unknown number.
But from the content, he immediately guessed it was from that woman named You Mei.
