After the news of the Xiao Corporation’s failed attempt at acquiring Ai Shang Group was released, the Xiao Corporation stock prices plunged by 60% within 20 days.

At the same time, the news of the Wen Corporation investing in the Ai Shang Group was exposed together with the clarification of the cancer-causing agents in the products. After seeing the quality test report, the public began to think that the Wen Corporation was launching an attack on the Xiao Corporation.

The Wen Corporation had also openly declared that there were no issues with the quality of Ai Shang Cosmetics’ products. However, they realized that they could achieve better results by improving the formulas. Hence, the Wen Corporation recalled all the products that were on sale and instructed the chemical researchers to develop a new formula for the products before reintroducing them to the market.

Everyone knew that it was just part of Wen Corporation’s plan to revamp Ai Shang Group’s products and convert them into luxury cosmetics.

“I managed to accomplish the mission by chance,” Si Yiyan said smilingly while handing Wen Xinya a glass of red wine.

Although his words were simple, they managed to invoke an inexplicable feeling within Wen Xinya. She could not help but recall what he said to her previously—”If I manage to raise the stock prices to a hundred yuan, how are you going to reward me?”

“Are you hinting that you want a reward?” Wen Xinya asked while glancing at Si Yiyan, who was holding a glass of red wine in his hand and standing gracefully with a confident aura. It was as if he was in control of everything.

“You can interpret it that way as well!” Si Yiyan answered, beaming with joy. The glass of wine in his hand appeared extremely tempting and alluring under the light from the chandelier, though not as charming as he was.

Seemingly shocked by the look in his eyes, Wen Xinya instinctively looked away and asked, “Si Yiyan, can you actually read minds?”

Si Yiyan stopped glancing at her.

Wen Xinya picked up the glass of red wine from the coffee table and swirled it in her hand gently. “You first moved into the Mo Family using my grandfather as an excuse and then you slowly made me lower my guard against you. It may seem casual, but you had actually planned each and every move. By the time I realized it, there was no longer anywhere for me to run. It’s the same case for the Xiao Family. You planned everything out meticulously and thought through every part of the plan. Bit by bit, you eroded Xiao Zhiyuan’s rationality, and by the time he woke up, it was all too late.”

“So?” Si Yiyan asked calmly.

“So…” Wen Xinya swirled her wine nonchalantly, though she still seemed as graceful as a Persian cat. Gazing at him, she continued, “Make a guess if I like red wine or not. If you guess it correctly, I’ll give you a reward!”

Despite knowing that she was not an ordinary girl, he was still shocked by her words, and he actually panicked at that instant. Indeed, he had planned every move meticulously when courting her. He had managed to win her heart through careful planning and precision.

Wen Xinya burst into laughter, seemingly having read his mind.

The tinges of flirtatiousness in her clear, crisp and yet coquettish voice gave Si Yiyan the chills. He grabbed the glass of red wine from her hand and chugged it down in one go. He then planted a kiss on her lips.

Their passion grew stronger and the aroma of red wine wafted in between their lips. He then pressed his lips together and moved them down her decolletage slowly and sensually.

Si Yiyan licked the drop of red wine that seeped out of the corner of her lips and asked in a deep, dreamy and alluring voice, “Do you like this?”

“I do,” Wen Xinya answered meekly and coquettishly, entirely mesmerized by him. It was the first time that she realized how decadent red wine could be, as the sweetness of it filled her taste buds.

“Shall I stay here tonight, then?” he suggested, trying his best to curb his urges to let his hands wander about her body.

Wen Xinya snapped back to reality and pushed Si Yiyan off her. She then sprung up from the couch and glowered at him.

“Si Yiyan, you’re playing it dirty!”

Si Yiyan chuckled and teased. “How so?”

Wen Xinya could not help but recall the romantic scene from before. Despite being on cloud nine, she could not speak at all. She was clearly the one who could not resist his charm…

“You said you’d give me a reward if I guessed it correctly. Are you going back on your word now?” Si Yiyan questioned, tightening his grip on her waist, only to discover just how thin and slender her waist was.

“You’re wrong. I don’t actually like red wine, and I don’t know anything about the labels on red wine bottles at all. Neither do I know how to appreciate wine. Regardless of how expensive red wine is, it can never compare to beer for me,” Wen Xinya said in a shaky voice while sliding down the couch. She shivered slightly and looked at Si Yiyan. The next thing she knew, she was already cuddling up beside him.

“But you said that you liked it just now. Do you need me to prove it again?” Si Yiyan asked teasingly with overflowing affection in his eyes. Despite claiming that she did not know how to appreciate red wine, she held the glass correctly, thus exuding her poise and grace. At the same time, she too, let her rebellion show.

Wen Xinya blushed as red as a tomato. Pretending to be composed, she said, “I’m going to take my end-of-semester examinations soon and will have to continue with revision later. Besides, Lanxin Cosmetics is going to open soon. There are lots of things for me to do.”

“Your revision bag is with me. Didn’t you already leave the store opening to Manager Li?” he asked. Wen Xinya darted her pretty eyes all over the place, not daring to hold his gaze at all. She was clearly just finding an excuse.

Glaring at him, Wen Xinya said, “Ninth Young Master Xiasi, my family forbids me from staying out for the night.”

Si Yiyan pulled her into his arms and said, “The Wen Family may forbid you, but the Mo Family doesn’t!”

Wen Xinya glowered at him, well aware that he wanted her to use the Mo Family as a smokescreen.

Si Yiyan placed her on his lap and wrapped his arms around her. “Wen Xinya, why are you so lovable? I really can’t wait for you to grow up. Once you’re grown up, I can shower you with much more love and affection.”

Wen Xinya pinched his ear and exclaimed, “Hooligan!”

Not angered by her actions at all, Si Yiyan chuckled and said, “Hurry and grow up so that you can love me and understand my woes.”

He’s so handsome and decent-looking on the surface, yet, deep down…

Wen Xinya was speechless!
