Chapter 718: On the Plane to Jingcheng
by xennovelAugust 5th.
Clear skies with white clouds.
At seven in the morning Xu Shaochen boarded the plane to Jingcheng.
Accompanying him were Long Yi and Long along with twenty bodyguards as well as Xie Wei responsible for supervising him on behalf of the women to prevent him from flirting outside.
Deng Tianwen and Hou Xiaoyan were also there.
As for why Hou Xiaoyan was going it was entirely because Deng Tianwen had shamelessly begged Xu Shaochen to use his authority as boss to order Hou Xiaoyan to go on the business trip with him.
Originally his relationship with Hou Xiaoyan was progressing quickly and he could have easily invited her out on his own but unfortunately he screwed up.
He went out for fun one night and the next morning during his usual video call to wish Hou Xiaoyan good morning he forgot to wipe off the lipstick on his neck. Hou Xiaoyan instantly blew up.
She immediately blocked Deng Tianwen and reverted to a cold attitude towards him.
So Deng Tianwen could only use this method to travel with Hou Xiaoyan and take the opportunity to eliminate the barrier between them during the trip.
Before boarding the plane he had already told Xu Shaochen that during their time in Jingcheng he was determined to win over Hou Xiaoyan.
Besides clothes Xu Shaochen was carrying two contracts for shares in the special AIDS medicine on this trip to Jingcheng.
These two contracts were of course the ones promised to Liang Huan and Zhao Li.
“Have you been to Jingcheng before?”
Looking at the clouds outside the plane Xu Shaochen asked Xie Wei beside him.
Xie Wei’s outfit today was simple her long hair tied back exposing her delicate oval face completely. A few strands of hair unwilling to be constrained fell across her forehead and her luscious red lips looked as if they could be pinched to release water.
A black strapless short dress wrapped her shapely figure the hem just reaching her knees. Thin crystal sheer tights accentuated her straight slender calves making them even more alluring. Her dainty jade feet were adorned with a pair of white high heels forming a stark contrast with the black dress.
Her whole being exuded a mature aura different from her peers which was of course the result of Xu
Shaochen’s hard work day and night.
Hearing Xu Shaochen’s words Xie Wei shook her head: “No I’ve only been to my older cousin’s house in Songshan all my life. I’ve never been to any other city.”
“Then you’re really pitiful. I’ve already been to quite a few places” Xu Shaochen said smugly.
Xie Wei pinched him: “You don’t take us with you because you’re afraid we’ll get in the way of your flirting right?”
“How could that be? Don’t say such things” Xu Shaochen denied quickly pulling her into his arms. “The reason I don’t take you out is because you’re all too beautiful. Walking with you puts a lot of pressure on me!”
“Hmm alright do you think I’ll believe such nonsense?” Xie Wei pouted dismissively.
Xu Shaochen was at a loss for words. Thinking about it it made sense. Xie Wei was a person with a clear plan for her life and certainly not so easily fooled.
However Xu Shaochen had his own clever plan.
With a mischievous smile curling at the corner of his mouth he leaned close to Xie Wei’s ear and said “Weiwei you seem to have grown again.”
“No way it’s all because of you. How am I supposed to face people when school starts?” Xie Wei’s face reddened as she glared at Xu Shaochen charmingly instantly forgetting the previous topic.
Due to Xu Shaochen’s day and night nurturing Xie Wei had developed somewhat abnormally growing almost a full cup size over the summer vacation.
She was a bit worried that when the next semester started those girls would surely surround her asking for her secret.
Most importantly it was super inconvenient to walk and if she ran it would be even more unseemly. She couldn’t help but think about how painful PE classes would be in the future.
“Hey you two what’s with all this public display of affection on the plane? Have you no sense of public decency? Can’t you see that Long Yi and the others are all single?”
“Look at me and Xiaoyan how considerate we are of their feelings. We haven’t said a word since getting on the plane unlike you two crazy lovebirds.”
Deng Tianwen sitting on the other side said somewhat sourly. Although he couldn’t hear what Xu Shaochen and Xie Wei were saying just looking at Xie Wei’s bashful expression he knew that Xu Shaochen must not be saying anything proper.
Looking at Hou Xiaoyan beside him engrossed in a management textbook his heart felt ice cold.
“Hehe you’d like to show affection but she’s not paying attention to you” Xu Shaochen said with a fake smile then provocatively kissed Xie Wei on the corner of her mouth.
“Damn it.”
Deng Tianwen cursed darkly then turned his head away no longer looking at Xu Shaochen.
Suddenly Hou Xiaoyan put away her book and stood up.
Deng Tianwen immediately put on a fawning face and said ingratiatingly “Xiaoyan are you thirsty? Just call the flight attendant. Or are you hungry? I can call the flight attendant for you…”
“I’m going to the restroom” Hou Xiaoyan said coolly.
“No problem I’ll help you there’s no need to be polite with me…” He realized something was off after speaking and laughed awkwardly moving his body aside “Xiaoyan if there’s no paper in the restroom remember to send me a message okay?”
“Get lost!”
Hearing this Hou Xiaoyan’s face turned pale with anger as she quickly walked towards the restroom.
“Xiaoyan! Be careful don’t fall!”
Deng Tianwen called out to her retreating figure.
“Pfft—”
Xu Shaochen and the others couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“What are you laughing at! A bunch of single dogs what’s there to laugh about? Do you know why you’re single? It’s because you can’t do what I do!”
Deng Tianwen looked at Long Yi and the others and scolded them irritably.
“Young Master Deng but acting like you do you’re still single now” Long Yi being an honest person couldn’t help but retort.
Deng Tianwen twitched his mouth: “Get lost!”
Xu Shaochen looked at Deng Tianwen and said “Deng Tianwen you know you’re very much like my dog Puppy at home. Puppy is just a bootlicker who goes crazy trying to please me for a bite of food.”
“If it’s not true love who would be willing to bootlick wholeheartedly?”
Deng Tianwen sighed softly uttering a rather profound statement.
“You’re the one who screwed yourself over. You go fooling around outside and don’t even know how to clean up the evidence properly. You should spend more time learning from me…”
As Xu Shaochen was speaking he suddenly felt a chill envelop him. His whole body went cold and he immediately swallowed the rest of his words.
“Go on keep talking. Why did you stop? Tell us how you manage to cheat behind our backs. I’m very interested too.”
Xie Wei looked at Xu Shaochen with a ambiguous smile her eyes flickering with dangerous light.
“Weiwei don’t joke around. I was just bragging. Bragging is a common flaw in men. With a little vixen like you around how could I have any energy left for others!”
Xu Shaochen said with a grin inwardly sighing that Weiwei had also been corrupted by the women at home and had gone astray.
He recalled that in the past Xie Wei was completely obedient to him gentle as water and even helped him find women.
Now… let’s not talk about it.
Indeed one takes on the color of one’s company.
All the women at home had been corrupted by that strong woman Mei Liangying.
