Chapter 359: 0359 Just what I wanted Chapter 359: 0359 Just what I wanted Fu Qiyuan saw her swearing so confidently, his lips hooked into a smile, and he reached out to touch her head.
“Hmm, that deserves a reward.”
After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her lips, to her surprised gaze.
It was but a brief taste!
Su Ran blinked, “Are you rewarding me, or rewarding yourself?”
Fu Qiyuan’s lips curved, and a warm smile flashed in his eyes.
“Both. Or do you not way of rewarding?”
A blush spread across Su Ran’s delicate face as she looked at him wordlessly.
How was she supposed to answer that?
The smile on Fu Qiyuan’s lips grew wider as he pulled her body closer to him, bending down slightly to come nearer to her.
“Haven’t you always liked it when I kiss you? When did you learn to say one thing but mean another?”
Su Ran’s face turned even redder, and she shyly glared at him.
“Since when did I like it? Don’t talk nonsense.”
Fu Qiyuan raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a deep meaning.
At a loss for words, Su Ran could find no reply to counter his statement, so she just quietly watched him.
A faint smile adorning his face, Fu Qiyuan’s gaze didn’t waver from the person in his arms.
Recalling her just moments ago, her slender and tall figure stood on the balcony, calmly and confidently facing attacks and doubts from the crowd, bold and capricious, with a cold demeanor and strong presence–she stood out from the rest, radiating a noble and chilly brilliance.
Wherever she went, she deeply attracted everyone’s attention. She had that kind of charm, a radiant appeal that captivated all.
Now looking at her in his arms, with traces of red on her beautiful face, her eyes revealed a coyness and softness unseen by others.
Her lovely lips curled slightly, her eyebrows tinged with a gentle smile, fully displaying a young girl’s demeanor.
And this side of her, unseen by anyone else, was only shown in front of him, where she would let down all her guards and alertness, giving him a sense of satisfaction and pride.
That feeling was even more fulfilling to him than signing any large deal.
Su Ran did not want to delve deeper into this issue with him. The result was nothing more than liking or not liking.
Not liking… that was impossible!
But for her to admit liking, that was impossible too.
Otherwise, the man would only become more presumptuous!
“Where did you go just now?”
Fu Qiyuan did not answer her question but played with her fingers, countering with a question of his own.
“Did you come today because of the Xiao Family’s investment?”
Surprise crossed Su Ran’s face for a moment.
Fu Qiyuan did not respond, just silently watched her.
Su Ran quickly caught on, “Did Xiao Yize tell you?”
Fu Qiyuan’s frown deepened, and his expression fully conveyed his displeasure.
“Are you close with him?”
Fu Qiyuan had never thought those three words could sound so grating.
Su Ran shook her head, smiling,
“Not close. Qianran International had two collaborations with Xiao’s, and as for Xiao Yize, it was just an acquaintance.”
Fu Qiyuan nodded, the chill that had just settled between his brows gradually dissipated.
“If you want investment, why not come to me?”
Surprised, Su Ran looked at him and raised an eyebrow, “You want to invest in me?”
Fu Qiyuan looked down at her, taking in her surprised expression, a hint of helplessness in his profound eyes.
“You are my girlfriend.”
The implication was clear: investing in his girlfriend was a matter of course.
Su Ran’s starry eyes twinkled with a sly glint, twinkling like a crafty little fox no matter how one looked.
“Are you sure you want to invest in Zisu?”
It was a while before he faintly parted his lips, but Su Ran could detect a hint of stiffness in his typically deep voice.
Su Ran covered her lips, holding back a laugh, “Naturally, as the vice president of Zisu, its development is closely related to me.”
Fu Qiyuan pursed his lips and did not speak.
Su Ran chuckled softly and asked him.
“Do you still want to invest in Zisu?”
Fu Qiyuan’s brows were tightly furrowed together, seeing the smile on Su Ran’s face.
“Yes, as long as you’re happy!”
Su Ran paused, feeling a slight warmth in her heart. She leaned her head against the man’s warm, strong chest, listening to his robust heartbeat.
“I was joking with you.”
Fu Qiyuan took the opportunity to embrace her, removing his suit jacket and wrapping it around her, his hands placed protectively on her back.
“I was not joking with you.”
He was much taller than her, and in their embrace, Fu Qiyuan’s chin rested just atop her head–the perfect height difference.
“I know, Fu Qiyuan, actually Zisu doesn’t necessarily need the Xiao Family’s investment.”
The man’s Adam’s apple moved slightly as a deep syllable spilled from his throat.
Su Ran lifted her head from his embrace, “Aren’t you curious why?”
“Why?” Fu Qiyuan naturally asked.
Su Ran was taken aback, and then she began:
“Because Chongguang wants that investment.”
Su Ran paused for a second, adding another sentence.
“Chongguang is a company under the Gu’s umbrella.”
Fu Qiyuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a faint gleam flashing in the depths of his profound gaze.
Su Ran’s lips curved up, tightening her hold around his waist, looking up at him.
“Don’t you think I’m being too much?”
Fu Qiyuan picked up on her subtle movements. One hand gradually slid up along her back, tenderly kneading her nape, and he bent slightly down to be eye-level with her.
“It’s exactly what I wanted.”
Elated by his praise, Su Ran was very happy.
That’s why Fu Qiyuan was her man, remarkably well-matched with her in many ways.
Even she herself was surprised by how well they clicked together, the feeling as if they had known each other for a long time.
“So, I should reward you.”
At the sound of his voice, Su Ran looked up, the position was just right. Fu Qiyuan leaned down, and the distance between their lips disappeared into nothingness.
Su Ran was stunned for a second, then regained her senses, following the man’s rhythm, and naively began to respond.
The girl rarely took initiative, and Fu Qiyuan’s eyes suddenly darkened. His hand tightened on her waist, deepening their kiss.
Just as the two were inseparable, a discordant voice sounded from behind.
“Oh my God, I’m blinded!”
Their bodies shook violently, and Su Ran immediately snapped back to reality, pushing the man in front of her away and looking up to see–
Mo Shangjie standing not far away with a shocked expression, hands covering his eyes, but the gaps between his fingers were wide enough to fit eggs.
Su Ran’s lovely cheeks flushed red instantly, her tipsy and dazed eyes somewhat at a loss.
At this moment, Fu Qiyuan pulled her back into his embrace.
How could he let others see her nestled up against him like a little bird!
“What are you doing here?”
Fu Qiyuan squinted his eyes, an intense killing aura radiating from his body and an icy tone that nearly ended Mo Shangjie on the spot.
