When his wicked ex-girlfriend beckoned him, CEO Li lost control!
Chapter 23 Close-Range Ultimate Attack
Half an hour later, Li Chengyuan sat on the sofa, surrounded by bottles and jars, all of which were Lin Zhixia's usual skincare and cosmetic products.
Lin Zhixia held the face mask and examined his face with a serious expression.
"I'm going to put a face mask on you now, so don't move."
Li Chengyuan wanted to ask him why a grown man like him was doing skincare, but before he could even speak, Lin Zhixia had already covered his face with a face mask.
Li Chengyuan's breath hitched, a cold, sticky sensation washing over him, and he felt a tightness on his face, which was quite uncomfortable.
"How long should this be applied...?"
Shh! Don't talk, look, it's about to fall over.
Lin Zhixia reached out to press the face mask that was sticking up on his right cheekbone, but Li Chengyuan was still a head taller than her even when he was sitting down.
She tried to adjust herself for a while but still felt uncomfortable, so she simply stood in front of him with her knees against the edge of the chair, almost touching him.
Li Chengyuan's dark pupils trembled. She carried a faint fragrance, somewhat like the scent of cosmetics. She stared intently at his face mask, adjusting it.
Li Chengyuan's hands rested on his knees, his knuckles turning white from gripping them so tightly, and his breathing became heavier.
She pressed her fingertips from his jawline down to his forehead, very lightly, but Li Chengyuan could feel the faint touch of her fingertips on his skin.
His Adam's apple bobbed.
But Lin Zhixia didn't notice Li Chengyuan's unusual behavior at all. Instead, she tilted her head and helped him tidy up the stray hairs on his forehead.
Her soft body pressed against him almost imperceptibly, causing Li Chengyuan to tense up. He closed his eyes briefly before speaking in a hoarse voice.
"Lin Zhixia".
"Um?"
She subconsciously looked up, and their eyes met.
Li Chengyuan said softly, "I'll do it myself."
Lin Zhixia remained in that position until her back was about to break. She took a step back to create some distance between herself and him, and then, seeing something, stared at him with a strange look.
"Li Chengyuan, why are your ears red?"
Did I put a face mask on him and make him shy?
Li Chengyuan raised his hand to press down on his brow bone, his voice low and deep.
"No, it's too hot."
After saying that, he walked towards the bathroom, but his steps were noticeably more hurried than usual.
Lin Zhixia looked away and continued fiddling with the cosmetics, thinking that even someone as aloof as Li Chengyuan could have a shy side.
interesting.
He always thought that the original owner had long ago trained Li Chengyuan to be invulnerable to swords and spears.
Lin Zhixia was sitting in a chair when her phone suddenly rang. She opened WeChat and saw that it was a message from Xu Yanzhou.
Lin Zhixia, are you free these next few days? My sister's family is really at their wits' end with their child. Could you possibly come over for a bit?
Xu Yanzhou helped her, and no matter what Lin Zhixia said, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.
Okay, send me the address, and I'll see if I can go over there when I have some free time tomorrow.
My sister and her family are traveling in another city right now, but it's not too far from you. Don't worry, I know you're having a tough time right now, so I'll cover your travel and food expenses.
Lin Zhixia glanced at the message below and found that it was also in Jiangcheng.
So, does that mean she can be with Li Chengyuan?
Lin Zhixia has always been a person of action, so she naturally couldn't miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
She immediately contacted Wang Jingshan and said that she had an emergency at home and asked if she could take two days off.
When I come back, I'll bring Wang Jingshan some local specialties.
She was too embarrassed to call Li Jingchuan again to ask for leave.
Wang Jingshan felt that Lin Zhixia was more sensible than the other nannies, so he immediately agreed to help inquire.
Lin Zhixia excitedly sent several thank you messages.
As expected of the Li family's old steward, Wang Jingshan was quick to act; within minutes, a voice message was sent.
"Xiao Lin, President Li hasn't said anything yet. Considering your special situation, he'll give you a day and a half. But you need to keep your phone on the whole time so that he can send you a video if anything happens to the young master."
Lin Zhixia replied hastily.
"No problem, no problem. Young Master can send me a video if anything happens."
Anyway, as long as he can hear the young master's voice, he will know his needs, and then he can treat the symptoms accordingly.
Earn money while doing part-time work.
When Li Chengyuan came out of the bathroom, Lin Zhixia asked him curiously.
"Why did you take so long to get inside?"
A hint of unease flashed in Li Chengyuan's eyes, but he remained calm on the surface.
"Hmm, I also looked up the location of that banquet."
Lin Zhixia didn't pay any attention and then couldn't wait to tell him.
"Li Chengyuan, I can go to Jiangcheng with you this time. Last time I met Xu Yanzhou, it was either because he found me a job, or because he has a difficult child at home and wanted me to go over and help take care of him, to see what the situation is like."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengyuan was somewhat surprised: "Isn't Xu Yanzhou's home in Beijing?"
"He's in Beijing, but his sister took the child to Jiangcheng for a trip these past two days. I heard the little guy was being really unruly, so he urgently covered all the travel and food expenses."
Lin Zhixia was delighted at the thought. She wouldn't have to spend a penny and could earn some extra money. More importantly, she could go to Jiangcheng with Li Chengyuan to take a look.
She lived in constant fear in Beijing, but Jiangcheng was much safer.
Li Chengyuan listened to her, his face beaming with joy, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
"So what are you doing with your boss now? I've heard that people from wealthy families tend to have strange tempers and a lot of demands."
Lin Zhixia patted her chest confidently: "Don't worry, I've already taken care of everything."
Li Chengyuan nodded: "Okay, then go pack your things. We'll ride in our boss's car and set off together."
For the past few months, they've either been arguing or busy working to pay off debts. This time, they're getting a free trip on public funds, and they can also take Lin Zhixia with them to see the sights.
"Great!" Lin Zhixia couldn't help but cheer, finally able to leave this awful place for the time being.
……
When the day came to depart, Li Chengyuan and Lin Zhixia waited for the boss at their car wash.
The boss's name was Yang Guang, he was about forty years old, and he was accompanied by a girl.
When Song You saw Li Chengyuan, she had a big smile on her face and kept waving to him.
"Li Chengyuan, hurry up, we're waiting for you."
When he got closer, he saw that Lin Zhixia was following behind Li Chengyuan, and the smile on his face instantly froze.
Lin Zhixia noticed it too, and her lips twitched.
This change of attitude is so obvious, they're not even pretending anymore?
Li Chengyuan's face looks like a lucky cat when he's out in public; he's probably very attractive to girls. Otherwise, the original owner wouldn't have been so wary of him.
On the one hand, she was afraid that Li Chengyuan would run into someone she knew, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Li Chengyuan would be seduced by a woman.
Song You looked Lin Zhixia up and down without any restraint, then said to Li Chengyuan in an unhappy tone.
"We're going on a business trip this time, why did you bring other people with you?"
Li Chengyuan introduced her in a very serious tone: "She is my girlfriend, Lin Zhixia. I have already spoken to the boss about this."
Song You pouted: "I've heard that your girlfriend is very controlling. It's one thing to always check your location, but now she even follows you on business trips. It's outrageous."
Lin Zhixia froze, then went for it!
Do you really think she's an easy target?
Then she'll have no choice but to use the original owner's special skills.
