It possessed a unique design and exquisite workmanship, exuding an aura of luxury and elegance as it adorned Fang Yuan’s wrist.
Bo Yi’s lips curled into a smile. “It’s truly stunning,” he remarked. This piece had an unparalleled impact; even the most accomplished jewelry spokesperson working under him couldn’t match the satisfaction and awe he felt right now.
His girl was undeniably beautiful. She was captivating without the bracelet, but with it, her beauty seemed to radiate even more.
The waiter, discreetly attending to their table, couldn’t help but steal glances at Fang Yuan. She possessed a captivating visage and an air of freshness that seemed otherworldly. It was no wonder she had captured the heart of Young Master Bo. The waiter pondered her background; she remained composed even when receiving such an extravagant gift. An ordinary girl might have burst into tears of joy. This girl, however, was anything but ordinary if she could elicit such a tender, adoring gaze from Bo Yi.
“Thank you,” Fang Yuan responded calmly as she picked up her knife and fork to commence her meal, a succulent steak before her.
Bo Yi’s affectionate smile persisted as he offered, “Allow me to assist you.” With practiced precision, he cut the steak into manageable pieces and placed them onto Fang Yuan’s plate, his tone exceptionally gentle. “Please, eat to your heart’s content.”
At that precise moment, Fang Yuan’s phone buzzed several times, a message from her assistant, Wang Ning.
[President Fang, regarding the company’s cafeteria… Would you like to oversee its management?]
[Ordinarily, the food is tolerable, but recently, I’ve noticed an unusual flavor!]
[While I don’t frequent the cafeteria, it’s been some time since our employees began grumbling about it.]
Wang Ning attached a picture and added, [The cafeteria is managed by relatives of President Zhao, and they charge us 9 yuan per meal!]
Fang Yuan’s fingers danced across her phone’s screen as she replied, [Indeed, it lacks flavor.]
[There has been some improvement in the past few days! The kitchen staff is aware of your recent company restructuring efforts, so this afternoon, they even included fish soup. Take a look.]
Wang Ning sent yet another picture.
Fang Yuan examined the fish soup and knit her brows slightly. “The color seems off.”
Wang Ning responded immediately: [Huh? President Fang, don’t scare me… Isn’t this fish soup supposed to be milky white?]
Fang Yuan zoomed in on the photo, taking a closer look at the other dishes Wang Ning had captured. [Leave all the dishes as they are. I’ll inspect them when I return later.]
Upon reading Fang Yuan’s message, Wang Ning couldn’t help but feel that the fish soup before him had suddenly lost its appeal.
Bo Yi, who had been observing Fang Yuan’s interactions with her phone, inquired, “Is everything alright? Do you have some business matters to attend to at the company?”
“Yes, a bit,” Fang Yuan replied as she took a few more bites, planning to visit the company cafeteria later. “Take me back.” She had just risen from her seat and taken a couple of steps when Bo Yi embraced her from behind.
“It’s still early,” Bo Yi remarked, gazing down at her attractive profile. “Stay with me a little longer.”
Fang Yuan felt somewhat helpless. Hadn’t she already accompanied him for the meal? Wasn’t that enough?
“I want your company,” he murmured, holding her tightly and inhaling her fragrance greedily. “I miss you when you’re out of sight. And when 1 see you, I want to be with you every moment. I want to stay by your side, every minute and every second.”
The two waitstaff and the restaurant manager couldn’t believe their ears upon hearing these words. Was this truly the notorious, unfeeling Young Master Bo Yi? He was actually whispering sweet nothings to a girl! Were their ears playing tricks on them, or had the rumors been mistaken?
“There are people watching,” Fang Yuan reminded him with a hint of helplessness in her tone. Bo Yi seemed to be growing increasingly clingy, and his words were becoming more direct.
Bo Yi lifted his head and glanced to the side. The restaurant manager and waiter simultaneously turned away, their backs to the couple, avoiding further eye contact.
“Yuanyuan,” Bo Yi’s voice oozed with seduction, “I want to experience everything that couples do with you.”
Fang Yuan,”.. ”
Bo Yi insisted, “Many, many times.”
“I’m really swamped,” Fang Yuan responded, her recent persistent requests having caused delays in her work.
“I can patiently wait for you during your busy times,” Bo Yi replied, as if he had anticipated her rejection. His voice softened as he continued, “You can be with me whenever you have a moment.”
Fang Yuan stayed silent.
As the Ferris wheel slowly ascended to its highest point, Fang Yuan gazed out at the sprawling cityscape. Then, she heard a whispered confession in her ear. “I have feelings for you.”
Fang Yuan was taken aback. This marked Bo Yi’s first admission of affection since they had met, leaving her momentarily stunned.
Bo Yi went on, “1 enjoy holding you, just as 1 am now. 1 cherish our time together. 1 value those who care about you, regardless of your personality or who you are.”
Meanwhile, on the other side of the door, Mu Qing, who had intended to enter and retrieve Master Bo and Miss Fang Yuan, hesitated when he saw three individuals outside, subtly gesturing for him to refrain from interrupting Master Bo’s romantic moment.
Before Mu Qing could process what was happening, he overheard Master Bo’s heartfelt confession. He watched the two figures embracing not far away with disbelief in his eyes.
“Yuanyuan, 1 really like you,” Bo Yi declared, sealing his words with a gentle kiss on Fang Yuan’s cheek..
