"Hehe, Sister Fei, you've had too much to drink. Let me take you home." Facing a charming woman expressing her interest, as a man, one would feel secretly delighted.

"What? Sister's told you she's fallen for you, and that's your reaction?" Feng Feifei wasn't happy with Xiaofan's expression.

You have to know, in the entertainment circle, even though Li Sisi is quite the star, Feng Feifei is also a very dazzling presence. Especially with her mature woman's charm, many men want to experience what it's like to control such a woman.

So, Feng Feifei understands what men think. If the man in front of her doesn't have any physiological shortcomings, then a woman flaunting her charms in front of him will surely capture his attention.

"Then we'll have to see what you mean by those words." Xiaofan smirked.

"Come on, I'm not drunk. How can the same sentence have two meanings?"

"Huaxia literature, it's so profound and deep." Xiaofan chuckled.

"Huh? Oh, you cheeky boy, you dare tease your elder sister." Feng Feifei mumbled and then suddenly caught on. She coquettishly bit her lip, rolled her eyes, but a sweet smile slipped across her lips.

Seeing Feng Feifei show a girlish demeanor, Xiaofan couldn't help but be a bit stunned.

"Waiter, bill, please..." Xiaofan also smiled gently. Over the past year, he had learned more than just combat experience. Playing the part in various social settings, he could hold his ground well. So, jokes could be made freely, but actions would remain appropriate.

However, Feng Feifei realized that after all these years of navigating the business world, this young man was one of the few people she couldn't quite grasp.

She couldn't guess what he was thinking or whether things would progress as she hoped.

"Little Brother Shen, we've reached this point. Aren't you going to give sister a hint?"

"A hint about what?"

In the car, they continued their earlier conversation... even though they were less than two minutes away from home.

"Nothing." Midway through the sentence, Feng Feifei didn't continue, reluctant to rely on this guy's willingness to help.

Feng Feifei's residence is a seven-floor walk-up. According to her, walking promotes physical vitality. Sometimes, taking the stairs is good for the body.

"Would you like to come up for some tea?"

"I remember Sister Fei saying that ordinary strangers aren't casually invited to your home, especially at this late hour. A man and a woman alone, you're suddenly changing your original intention. It makes me think otherwise." Xiaofan quipped, pouting.

"Slick talker, I bet you have a number of outstanding girls around you. Suit yourself."

"Actually, Sister Fei doesn't need to rack her brain over me. The current situation doesn't align with the prior agreement. Going back to the company to ask for a replacement is a normal thing anyway." Xiaofan clarified his stance while opening the car door for Feng Feifei.

"So you're saying, no matter what, you're not willing to stay?" Feng Feifei asked disappointedly. This guy just won't take the bait, it seems.

"Business is business."

"Price-wise, you're welcome to set your rate. I've seen these past few days that you have the ability to protect Sisi's safety." Feng Feifei was still reluctant to give up.

"It's not about the money."

"Then just tell me what's bothering you. If it's because we were rude to you earlier, I sincerely apologize here. Feifei is still young; please don't take it to heart. I assure you, in the future, she won't make things difficult for you over work matters." Feng Feifei persisted.

"The truth is, it's a personal issue of mine. To be honest, I don't like getting involved in troublesome situations."

"Even if Sister Fei invites you to come in and sit for a while?" Feng Feifei said, leaning ever so slightly toward Xiaofan under the influence of alcohol.

Seeing her delicate, jade-like arm reach over, Xiaofan knew she did it on purpose, yet he couldn't bring himself to avoid it.

"Sister Fei, is it really necessary..."

"Then let's not talk money; let's talk about feelings."

"Discussing feelings is expensive." Xiaofan said helplessly.

"Hehe, you really don't get romance. But I'm actually dizzy. I really can't deal with you, but don't get me wrong. Sister's a person with self-respect. I just imagined you too simply. Can you help sister back home?"

"If you don't mind, of course."

"Annoying."

The moonlight was at its fullest; the stairwell was very quiet. Each time they ascended a level, the light would sense the sound and illuminate.

Feng Feifei was over 170 cm tall, and with high heels, she was almost the same height as Xiaofan.

It seemed Feng Feifei wasn't pretending to be drunk; her alcohol tolerance was genuinely low. Her steps were slightly unsteady, though her mind was still clear.

Appreciating the delicate fragrance beside him, Xiaofan couldn't help but sigh. No wonder heroes throughout history struggled with the allure of beauty. In this scene, even though he intended to maintain a clear mind, he couldn't quite reach a state of utter calm.

Ah, women, they're indeed bewitching.

"The keys are in the bag, don't rummage through it."

"Rummaging through it, it's just a few personal items." Xiaofan smiled softly, unzipped Feng Feifei's handbag, and then used the key to unlock the door.

Gently placing Feng Feifei on the sofa, he then poured a glass of water by the water dispenser.

Seated on the sofa, Feng Feifei rubbed her temple vigorously. She really seemed dizzy.

"Thank you, and sorry, you're the guest, and I didn't even make you tea; I had you pour water for me instead." Feng Feifei hadn't expected her alcohol tolerance to be so poor. In the past, she'd go to a bar and have just one drink. Maybe it was the work stress; one drink would make it easier to fall asleep once home. But unexpectedly, after three drinks, she almost couldn't make it back.

"You live here alone? Where's your boyfriend?"

"Why, are you indirectly trying to find out if I have a man? Or does it mean you have some intentions towards sister?" Feng Feifei gently set down the water glass, once again using those dreamy eyes to gaze at Xiaofan.
