730 -730: Ningxue’s Charm
Ye Fei paused his motion of throwing the scoundrel out the window and turned to Li Ningxue, asking, “What’s wrong?”
“Let him go.
Just let him leave,” Li Ningxue said.
Although she was seething with anger at the man’s vile words, her inherently kind nature couldn’t condone killing someone.
Despite her status as a powerful figure, her path had been smooth thanks to Ye Fei’s support, and she hadn’t yet developed the ruthlessness often required in high positions.
Ye Fei could somewhat guess her thoughts, so he didn’t push further.
He casually tossed Li Jian aside and said, “Get out of here, and don’t let me see you again!”
However, deep down, he had already made up his mind.
He wouldn’t let this man, who dared insult his woman, off the hook.
He was merely putting on a show in front of the kind-hearted Li Ningxue.
Though Li Jian was filled with resentment, he didn’t dare say anything after witnessing Ye Fei’s strength.
He slunk out of the room, but as he left, he caught a glimpse of Li Ningxue throwing herself into Ye Fei’s arms.
This reignited his scheming mind.
Since aligning himself with a powerful figure, he had never suffered such humiliation.
He had no intention of letting the young man who had dared strike him off the hook.
Now, he even convinced himself that Ye Fei was just a boy toy Li Ningxue had taken in.
This thought excited him.
Killing someone like that would be easy, and Li Ningxue wouldn’t dare make a fuss.
With his connections, he’d face no consequences.
At that moment, he made a decision he would regret for the rest of his life.
In Ye Fei’s embrace, Li Ningxue felt a sense of safety she had never experienced before.
Her tense heart relaxed instantly.
The long-held longing, combined with the earlier humiliation, soon brought quiet tears to her eyes.
Ye Fei’s heart ached for her.
He gently patted her back and said softly, “Silly girl, why are you crying?
Just think of it as hearing a dog bark.”
But Li Ningxue’s sadness wasn’t about that.
Having grown up in the lowest strata of society, she had heard far worse insults.
Her pain came from a deeper worry—that Ye Fei might one day grow tired of her, or worse, think she only loved him to maintain her status.
Between sobs, she whispered, “Ye Fei, I’m not what he said I was…”
“Of course, you’re not.
I know you better than that,” Ye Fei interrupted her, then leaned in close to her ear with a mischievous grin.
“Besides, Ningxue, you’re already mine.
Why would you need to ‘sell’ yourself to me?”
“You’re awful!” Li Ningxue blushed furiously, her heart eased by his words but still flustered by his teasing.
For the first time, she used a coquettish tone with him.
Seeing her cheeks flushed and her delicate expression, Ye Fei felt a surge of desire.
He chuckled, “Since no one’s around, maybe I should take a proper taste of what’s mine?” His gaze drifted toward the area covered by her professional skirt.
Li Ningxue instinctively tightened her legs and shot him a look that was both reproachful and alluring.
“Not here, please,” she pleaded.
Ye Fei had only been teasing, but her words ignited a fire in him.
Still, he knew a woman’s first time shouldn’t be in such a setting.
He took her hand and smiled, “Then let’s go somewhere else?”
Li Ningxue had been anticipating this moment for a long time, but the shyness of a first-time experience made her hesitate.
She glanced at the unfinished work on her desk and said, “But…”
“No buts,” Ye Fei cut her off.
“As the boss, I declare you’re on a day off—no, three days off.
For these three days, I’m all yours.
How’s that?”
Given the earlier flirtatious tone, Li Ningxue misunderstood and blurted out, “Three days?
I don’t think we’d survive that!”
Ye Fei paused, then burst into laughter.
“I meant spending three days with you, not three days in bed!
You naughty girl!”
Realizing her misunderstanding, Li Ningxue was both embarrassed and flustered, her head nearly dipping between her ample chest.
The mix of a maiden’s shyness and a mature woman’s allure made Ye Fei seriously consider keeping her in bed for those three days.
“Let’s go,” Ye Fei said, wrapping an arm around her shoulders as they left the office.
Once outside, Li Ningxue gently pulled away, and Ye Fei didn’t insist.
After all, they were still in the company, and as the top executive, Li Ningxue had to maintain her image.
Even so, their closeness didn’t go unnoticed.
Li Ningxue wasn’t the icy type, but she had never been seen close to any man before.
Even during work discussions, she kept her distance.
Now, she was walking side by side with a strikingly handsome man, her gaze filled with unmistakable tenderness.
This was big news for the employees.
Under the curious and knowing glances of many, they finally stepped out of the elevator, catching the attention of the receptionist who had been waiting for Ye Fei.
However, upon seeing Li Ningxue beside him, the girl hesitated.
Though she considered herself attractive, she paled in comparison to Li Ningxue.
She quickly realized how unrealistic her fantasies were.
Being a pragmatic person, she shook off her disappointment and approached Ye Fei eagerly.
“Ye Fei, could I get your autograph?”
Ye Fei was taken aback.
“I’m not a celebrity.
Why would you want my autograph?”
“Please!” the girl insisted, her eyes filled with hope.
Li Ningxue chuckled beside him, “Just sign it for her.”
Seeing Li Ningxue’s approval, Ye Fei relented.
He took the marker the girl handed him—he had no idea where she got it—and signed his name on a piece of paper she provided.
“Looks like you’re quite popular.
They’ve never asked for my autograph,” Li Ningxue teased, linking her arm with his.
From the way people looked at them, it was clear their relationship couldn’t be hidden, so she stopped trying.
