My Sexy Female CEO

"It's nothing, just ran into some annoying issues." Thinking about today's events, Lin Yifan instantly lost any desire he had, left only with anger.

"Tell me, let me, this understanding beauty, help you get rid of your worries," Han Meiling said seductively.

"Forget it, you better go back to playing your game," Lin Yifan sighed.

Telling anyone about this was useless, only he could solve it.

"Right! The game might have started, so I'll go first. If you need anything, please remember to call me. I, the great beauty, will definitely attend to you attentively and comfortably," Han Meiling winked and went inside.

"OK!" Watching her graceful figure, Lin Yifan really wanted to rush up, push her down, and then show some "care."

"Gulp! Gulp!"

After swallowing a few times, he held back and then, with an itchy heart, turned and went back to his own house. Some things, once done, had to be taken responsibility for to the end, and right now, he didn't even know what to do.

After taking a hot shower, relaxing his muscles, and clearing his head; he finally lay in bed, recalling this morning's events. His gaze turned sharp as he spat out harsh words, "It's just money, I'll use it to smash you people who look down on others."

Then, he fell asleep.

The next day, when he woke up and turned on his phone, he discovered several hundred missed calls, all from Zhou Jiajia.

Lin Yifan knew that Zhou Jiajia must be very worried he'd get desperate, and equally scared that he'd just mysteriously disappear; soon after, he replied with a message to reassure her: I'm still here, I'm not that easily beaten.

Less than ten seconds after sending the message, a reply came, Zhou Jiajia clearly had been waiting for his message.

Opening the message, he read: Thank you for not abandoning me, I will love you forever.

Upon reading this message, Lin Yifan unconsciously felt an invisible pressure because he needed to haul a mountain of gold to crush Zhou Jiajia's parents until they couldn't bear it anymore.

"Since I've chosen, then I must bravely face it!" With a bit of encouragement, he got out of bed.

Next, he washed his face, brushed his teeth, ate breakfast, and after finishing all these, he drove to work at Golden Sand Bay's Sunshine Community.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived at An Qi's doorstep; not long after, Zhou Jiajia came out from inside.

"Yifan!" Zhou Jiajia called affectionately and ran over.

Lin Yifan turned and saw that Zhou Jiajia, who was usually full of life, looked suddenly haggard today, appearing utterly spiritless.

Coming up to Lin Yifan, Zhou Jiajia didn't hold back with her usual restraint and caution, but plunged straight into Lin Yifan's arms, then held on tightly.

"Yifan! I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen, I'm sorry," Zhou Jiajia cried tearfully while apologizing.

After yesterday's farewell, she was really scared that Lin Yifan would just leave and never come back.

"The fault isn't yours, blame this world for being too mercenary," Lin Yifan comforted.

"Yifan! Let's elope! Let's leave here, find a paradise free from worldly troubles," Zhou Jiajia suggested.

"Can you leave your elderly parents?" Lin Yifan asked.

To him, this question was a joke; because Zhou Jiajia was an only child, from the choice made yesterday, he knew that she couldn't do it.

Indeed, upon hearing his question, Zhou Jiajia instantly fell into hesitation; her parents had not had an easy time raising her—she had always been coddled and nurtured by them—so how could she not repay their kindness?

"Alright! My dear Jiajia, you're already an adult, stop acting like a child, thinking about eloping at the drop of a hat. There are far too many things obstructing us as it is, it would be difficult to leave without saying goodbye," Lin Yifan soothed Zhou Jiajia's emotions.

If this tactic didn't work, she'd resort to another; thus, Zhou Jiajia hardened her heart and said, "Then I will threaten them with suicide until my mom and dad agree to this marriage."

This childish idea made Lin Yifan helplessly laugh, "A marriage without your parents' blessing is likely to fall apart."

"Then what should we do? I can't live without you," Zhou Jiajia said through tears.

She had suggested every solution she could think of, but none were useful, and she truly didn't know what to do anymore.

"Don't worry, we'll face the problems as they come. Your parents want money, right? Then we'll keep throwing money at them until they agree," Lin Yifan replied.

"But, I asked my mom and dad yesterday, they said they would agree to this marriage only if you had an estate worth fifty billion," Zhou Jiajia said, struggling.

Fifty billion was far too much; when she had heard that figure, she had almost fallen into despair and considered ending her life; after all, Lin Yifan, a bodyguard, could never earn that much money.

"Fifty billion." Upon hearing this figure, Lin Yifan also felt an immense pressure.

It was no small amount; for him, it was insurmountably vast.

"It looks like, without getting into business, it's hard to earn so much money. What should we do?" Lin Yifan wondered.

Just then, Zhou Jiajia's parents hurriedly ran towards them.

As they approached, they yelled, "Jiajia! Let go!"

"No! I won't leave Yifan!" Hearing her parents' shout, Zhou Jiajia clung on even tighter.

"Are you... Are you trying to infuriate us to death?" Zhou Jiajia's father rebuked.

"Mom, Dad! Can't you accept Yifan? We truly love each other, please," Zhou Jiajia begged.

"As long as he brings out fifty billion, I'll let you get married immediately, and after that you can do whatever you want," Zhou Jiajia's father harshly replied.

Hearing this, Lin Yifan suddenly felt a great pain in his heart; treating their daughter as a pawn for their benefit was detestable.

"You know he can't produce fifty billion, why still make it difficult for him?" Zhou Jiajia asked sadly.

"That's his incompetence! What has it to do with me? If someone wants to marry my daughter, he must be financially robust," Zhou Jiajia's father said coldly, showing no mercy.

Following that, he came up to Zhou Jiajia and started pulling her away.

However, after several tugs, he realized he couldn't move Zhou Jiajia; turning around curiously, he saw that Lin Yifan was holding Zhou Jiajia's other hand.

He then angrily shouted, "Let go of my daughter's hand!"

"What's the rush? We haven't even started discussing yet," Lin Yifan said calmly, unafraid.

"Discuss what? There's nothing for us to discuss," Zhou Jiajia's father replied irritably.

"You only laid out a condition but didn't specify a deadline, so I want to know what your deadline is," Lin Yifan answered.
