Ye Xian stared incredulously at the man who had surpassed her five-minute lead in just one minute—how was that even possible!
The CEO must have cheated!
Ye Xian quickened her pace to catch up with him, "CEO, you broke the rules, you said you’d let me run for five minutes first, but you actually sneaked along behind me all the time!"
Bo Tingshen glanced at her skeptically, "Don’t you trust me?"
"If you don’t trust me, check the surveillance after we’re finished. If I didn’t cheat, you’ll have to run an extra half hour."
Ye Xian immediately shut up.
"Forget I said anything."
It seemed that he truly had overtaken her in just one minute.
The slight desire of rebellion that had started to rise in her heart immediately burst.
How can you fight back against a man who outsmarts and outperforms you in every aspect, and who is also your boss?
"CEO even though our scenes at Yanliu Mountain are done, ’Conquest of the World’ is rushing its schedule. Sometimes we have to shoot a lot of extra scenes and night shoots. I can’t come back to cook for you every day. How about I cook for you once a month?"
Bo Tingshen selectively heard those few words, and his clear eyes darkened, "Not enough."
Ye Xian, "Then can we negotiate, twenty days?"
"Three days won’t work! That’s too often, I can’t handle that!"
Bo Tingshen looked at her, his eyes growing darker. He stopped walking, took a bottle of water from beside and drank it down in one gulp.
Ye Xian looked at him; "...." Only a few minutes into the run and he’s that thirsty?
Ye Xian, "Half a month!"
Bo Tingshen looked sharply at her, "Ye Xian, I’ve already made concessions."
Ye Xian thought about their first deal when he hadn’t given in at all, and now...he really had compromised. It was also a reminder for her not to push her luck.
"Alright," Ye Xian gritted her teeth, "one week it is then, CEO, you must keep your word."
Words are binding now, but not necessarily later.
One week was too long for him.
At half-past seven, the Sun rose over the eastern horizon, breaking through layers of clouds. The morning light filtered through the swaying leaves, casting mottled circles of light, focusing on the boy with brows shining brilliantly, every hair gleaming.
Bo Tingshen watched her intently. The bottle in his hand deformed, then he randomly tousled her hair.
Ye Xian’s hair suddenly became a messy, "???"
Bo Tingshen, "There were leaves in your hair."
Ye Xian quickly took out her phone to check herself, but couldn’t find any leaves on her head—she just noticed that the current scene in the garden pathways was quite lovely.
"CEO, do me a favor!"
She had a sudden idea.
"Jiang Wen asked me to record a fun video for him to post, and the lighting and scenery here are perfect right now. How about we shoot a morning run video here? Active, healthy, and beautiful. You shoot it for me, make sure to capture from the side, get the angle right, highlight my long legs and perfect side profile. And handle the lighting and background well, ideally, make it look like I’m running through the forest bathed in morning light, creating a dreamy, beautiful vibe..."
Ye Xian gestured extensively before handing her phone to Bo Tingshen, "CEO, can you handle it?"
The CEO, being such a smart and capable person, would surely catch on quickly and make her look fantastic!
