Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

Ten minutes later, the car arrived at the hotel. Li Xiaoyao pulled out the keys before staring intently at Lan Cai.

This woman had a great figure, light makeup, and a natural look. There was a faint scent of perfume on her, a fragrance Li Xiaoyao liked.

With her head down, Lan Cai could feel Li Xiaoyao’s overly direct gaze. She felt a twinge of annoyance and suddenly looked up at Li Xiaoyao as if to catch him red-handed.

However, to her surprise, she did catch him in the act. Li Xiaoyao was indeed staring at her. What left Lan Cai speechless was that even after being caught, he didn’t look away but kept on watching her.

"What are you looking at?" Lan Cai exhaled and asked with irritation.

"Guess!" Li Xiaoyao replied, winking at her.

"Guess?" Lan Cai was almost driven mad by Li Xiaoyao’s words. You’re looking at my face and asking me to guess? This man is truly shameless.

If it weren’t for the fact that Li Xiaoyao had just helped her, she would have fired him from the company right then and there.

Li Xiaoyao tossed the car keys to Lan Cai and said, "We’re here. Let’s get out."

Li Xiaoyao picked up the bouquet of roses from the back seat and walked beside Lan Cai.

Lan Cai reached out to take the roses, saying in a not-so-pleasant tone, "I can go up on my own."

After speaking, Lan Cai walked towards the elevator with the roses in her arms.

Lan Cai had her principles. Although Li Xiaoyao had teased her in the car, he had also helped her today. If not for him, her ankle injury wouldn’t have healed so quickly. Therefore, regarding Li Xiaoyao’s flirting, Lan Cai decided to let it slide this time.

But if he continued this behavior when they met in the future, Lan Cai wouldn’t let him off so easily.

"Ding!"

The elevator arrived. Lan Cai stepped in, and just as the doors were about to close, a foot suddenly wedged itself in, prompting the doors to reopen. Lan Cai then saw Li Xiaoyao following her into the elevator.

Lan Cai’s eyebrows furrowed but then relaxed. She guessed that Li Xiaoyao was probably concerned about her recent ankle sprain, so he had come into the elevator to protect her.

Lan Cai didn’t speak and kept some distance from Li Xiaoyao.

Once they reached the top floor, the two stepped out of the elevator. Li Xiaoyao looked around and realized the entire floor was an open terrace.

It seemed someone was celebrating a birthday, as there were balloons and "Happy Birthday" signs all around.

As soon as Lan Cai left the elevator, her phone rang. It was Lin Yuanyuan calling.

"My little Cai’er, where are you?"

"I’ve arrived," Lan Cai said, scanning the area.

"Arrived? Oh, I see you! Don’t move, I’m coming to get you right now."

Lin Yuanyuan, in her super short skirt and off-the-shoulder top, didn’t let Lan Cai wait for long. She walked over with her long legs showing.

Li Xiaoyao was searching for Zhao Si on this floor when his gaze shifted and caught sight of a stunning beauty scoring full marks in every category, walking towards him with an enticing smile on her face as if saying, "Handsome, come play."

Li Xiaoyao licked his lips, thinking the girl had an eye for talent, spotting him out of the crowd at a glance.

When the beauty was two meters away from Li Xiaoyao, she suddenly spread her arms and walked up to him with a giggle, saying, "My little Cai’er, you finally made it."

Li Xiaoyao blinked, "What? Little Cai’er?"

The beauty walked straight past Li Xiaoyao and then, under his gaze, hugged Lan Cai tightly beside her.

"Damn, it’s a good thing I didn’t just go for a hug, that would have been so embarrassing."

This beauty was none other than Lin Yuanyuan, Lan Cai’s best friend.

Lin Yuanyuan caught sight of Li Xiaoyao at once, hugged Lan Cai’s slender waist, her beautiful willow brows slightly raised as she sized up Li Xiaoyao from head to toe.

"Cai’er, who is this guy? He’s not your man, is he?" Lin Yuanyuan had a threatening tone in her voice.

Lan Cai’s cheeks flushed, she shook off Lin Yuanyuan’s hand, and said, "Don’t talk nonsense, he’s an employee from my company. We just had a little accident on the road, and he gave me a ride here." Then, turning to Li Xiaoyao, Lan Cai said, "Thank you for today, you can go back now."

Li Xiaoyao, observing Lin Yuanyuan’s actions and the way she looked at him, thought to himself, "Do these two have some sort of a problem with their orientation?"

If that was true, it would be such a waste, such high-quality girls being lesbians is such a pity.

Lin Yuanyuan, noticing Li Xiaoyao’s strange gaze, raised an eyebrow and demanded, "What are you looking at with those dog eyes?"

Li Xiaoyao replied with a sneer, "Beauty, can you speak human? What do you mean dog eyes? Do you think dogs can judge people?"

Li Xiaoyao’s mouth really was sharp, and Lin Yuanyuan was so angered by his words she burst out, "You dog slave, how dare you insult me!"

Li Xiaoyao scoffed. She was pretty but her personality left much to be desired. This kind of woman must have been spoiled since childhood, probably has no clue about respect.

Li Xiaoyao couldn’t be bothered with her and turned to walk away.

"Stop, who allowed you to leave?" Lin Yuanyuan shouted from behind, "Besides, this is not a place you should be at, hurry up and leave!"

Lan Cai tugged at Lin Yuanyuan, reprimanding a bit, "Yuanyuan, don’t talk to him like that, he’s actually a nice person."

"What? He’s nice? My Cai’er, didn’t you hear how he insulted me just now?" Lin Yuanyuan looked at Lan Cai with a face that suggested she’d seen a ghost, and after a few seconds said, "Ah! Cai’er, you couldn’t possibly like this guy, could you?"

Lan Cai’s cheeks were so red they could drip blood, and she slapped Lin Yuanyuan’s arm lightly, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Yuanyuan chuckled, winking at her and said, "But this subordinate of yours really does have a personality, daring to insult me. He’s the first man I’ve encountered who would do that."

Watching Li Xiaoyao move around, Lin Yuanyuan smirked and said, "He wouldn’t be trying to scrounge food and drinks, would he?"

Lan Cai also frowned; she had already made it clear to Li Xiaoyao to leave the place, after all, today was Lin Yuanyuan’s birthday. And indeed, this was not the kind of event he should attend.

Just as Lan Cai was about to go over and talk to him, she saw Li Xiaoyao sit down confidently, facing another man who seemed to be in a very friendly conversation with him, as if they had known each other for a long time.

Lan Cai was slightly stunned, suddenly realizing she had misunderstood something.

Li Xiaoyao wasn’t there just for her; he had already made plans to meet a friend there.

Lan Cai felt her face heat up, while also feeling a bit annoyed with Li Xiaoyao for not being clear about his plans from the start.

Lin Yuanyuan also noticed and said, "So he isn’t here to freeload after all, I underestimated him. Hey, Cai’er, what does your subordinate do? He’s dressed so casually, I remember you’re quite strict with your employees. With such standards, how could you let him into your company?"

Lan Cai shook her head, changing the topic, "It’s your birthday today, you’re the star, don’t stay here, go over there quickly."
