Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 319 - 312: The Mysterious Boss

In the luxury suite of a certain hotel, Ma Li just came out of the bathroom after a shower, wrapped only in a towel, her voluptuous figure completely exposed.

She was wiping her wet hair with a towel while scrutinizing her face in the mirror.

A new fine line had appeared at the corner of her eye, and the nasolabial folds on either side of her nose seemed to have deepened, while the lines on her neck were becoming looser.

These marks all confirmed that she was aging...

Ma Li’s complexion turned sour, and even her hair-drying movements became rougher.

A pair of strong arms gently embraced her from behind, and a soft, alluring voice sounded by her ear.

"What’s wrong? Why aren’t you happy?"

Ma Li looked at Bai Chuan’s youthful face in the mirror, feeling a deep sense of loss. She reached out to touch Bai Chuan’s face and said, "Chuan, will you dislike me for being old?"

Bai Chuan tightened his arms slightly and said, "How could that be?"

Ma Li’s expectant expression dimmed at Bai Chuan’s response.

Yes, her relationship with Bai Chuan was nothing more than a transaction of money. As long as she could afford it, why would Bai Chuan mind her aging? After all, it was all for the sake of money.

But she was unwilling. She gradually realized that she had developed feelings for Bai Chuan, which is why she was so furious when Bai Chuan stood up for Bai Yiran! Yet, she couldn’t refrain from seeing him; as long as he beckoned with a finger, she’d obediently come to his side.

"Chuan, what do you think of me?"

"You’re great." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Other than being great? Is there nothing else?"

"..."

"Forget it." Ma Li chuckled bitterly. What was she hopelessly longing for? She took out a check from her bag and handed it to Bai Chuan, "I’ll be very busy recently and may not have time to see you. Keep this money."

Bai Chuan casually accepted the check as if it were just an ordinary piece of paper, then reached out to lift Ma Li’s chin, "What’s up? Is your husband starting to check on you?"

"No." Ma Li couldn’t stand Bai Chuan teasing her like this, it always made her lose control. "It’s business-related. I’m currently handling a big deal, and if successful, the profit will be enough to spend a lifetime."

Bai Chuan’s eyes shimmered with a dark light, "Oh? What kind of deal is that big?"

Ma Li’s expression tensed, her voice sinking, "Don’t ask what you shouldn’t know."

Bai Chuan nodded, remained silent, and turned his back to start getting dressed.

Seeing this, Ma Li got a bit anxious and grabbed Bai Chuan’s arm, "After this deal is over, I’ll divorce Brother Qiang."

Ma Li looked hopefully at Bai Chuan, but he seemed to not understand the implication of her words.

Bai Chuan kept his back to Ma Li as he dressed, not saying a word.

At that moment, Ma Li’s phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID, then at Bai Chuan standing in front of the mirror, and answered the call.

"Hello, Aqiang." Ma Li quietly listened to the voice on the other end. "Okay, I know, tell the boss not to worry, there won’t be any issues."

Ma Li put down her phone and turned around to see Bai Chuan looking at her.

"I didn’t expect you and Brother Qiang to both work for someone else." Bai Chuan hugged her shoulders, his lips curving with a charming, crooked smile, "But, I’m very curious, what kind of person could be the boss of Sister Ma Li?"

Initially somewhat depressed, Ma Li was once again drowned in Bai Chuan’s charming affection, and she laughed, "Ha, my boss is very mysterious. Both Aqiang and I have worked for him for so long but have never met him in person."

Bai Chuan smirked, seemingly sighing, "That really is mysterious!"
