Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

The atmosphere between each other was no longer the same as before. Before hanging up the phone, Zige added, “My mom told me that you sent her the autograph. Thanks.”
“A show of hands.”
Ziggy then didn’t say anything more and disconnected the call.
Over here, Lan Yu Feng tossed his cell phone away, the smile on his face stiffening slightly. Looking at the phone, thinking of the way Meng Zige suspected him, his brows furrowed slightly and he only felt annoyed. After pondering, he picked the phone up and dialed another string of numbers.
“Sir.” Yan Nan spoke respectfully over there.
“What about her?”
“It’s been delivered to the house.”
“Remind her for me to keep her out of the City 3 neighborhood and roads.”
“Good.” Yan Nan Cheng responded, remembering Zi Ge, who had just sprinted over, “There’s nothing troubling on the lady’s side, is there?”
Got to talk more. “Not in the way.” Lan Yu Feng didn’t say anything more, but simply closed the line.
Driving slowly, his profound eyes calmly leveled ahead. It was true, as Meng Zige herself had said, she was still too innocent.
At work in the afternoon, Zi Ge called Su Jie again to make sure she was okay. Originally, she was still uneasy, but fortunately, Lai Hao, who heard that Su Jie didn’t come to work, went back for her.
Zi Ge, who had gone downstairs to the pharmacy to collect her medication, didn’t expect to meet Su Chen when the elevator doors opened.
Why is he in the hospital at this moment? Today was his engagement party, and normally he would be at home entertaining guests at this moment.
Thinking of those tears that Su Jie shed in front of herself today, Zi Ge was more or less angry with Su Chen Since they were not going to be together properly from the beginning, why did they have to mess with it? That day at the blind date banquet, how he pleases the cold Su Jie, playing those tricks, but everyone saw in the eyes.
“Young Master Su.” She greeted, her voice a little chilly, not lifting a step to walk in.
“Can you not be in the same tune as Xi Sujie?” Su Chen frowned and glanced at Zige. Propping his hand on the button, he glanced at the empty elevator, “Come in and go down together.” .
He looked very tired, body a straight suit, looks like it must be from the banquet out even clothes did not have time to change. Bow tie was pulled down by him, carried in the hand carelessly, collar open, lazy and sexy. Especially after drinking a lot of wine, that look really called aside a lot of small nurses and female patients to see the blush.
Not wanting to make any loose ends, Ziggy walked in as she was told.
The door closed and pursed her lips before Ziggy asked, “Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be at the engagement party right now?”
“I thought you were planning to never talk to me again.” Su Chen could see her resentment towards herself.
Ziggy shook her head, “I’ll admit to being a little angry with you, but that was from Suje’s standpoint. That said, I’m an outsider in this relationship.”
She knew neither when their love began nor where they stopped.
Su Chen agreed with her and nodded slightly. Suddenly spreading his hand out in front of her, he seemed to be asking her for something.
“What?” Ziggy wondered.
“Key.” Seeing that Zige was still confused, Su Chen added, “The key to your house.”
“You’re going to Suje?” At a time like this?
“Otherwise what else is there to do?” Su Chen asked rhetorically.
Zige didn’t give him the key. Since he was already engaged, why should he stab Su Jie again? Zi Ge pursed her lips and quietly glanced at Su Chen, “I think that young master Su still doesn’t need to go. Su Jie … now has Li Hao in her care, there should be no problem.”
“Lai Hao?” Su Chen was shocked, leaning against the elevator wall, somewhat stiff. In his mind, the image of last night’s scene of Xi Sujie undressing for Li Hao unconsciously flashed, and the bottom of his eyes slowly clouded over with a layer of hazy grayness.
Disheartened and disillusioned.
Zige had never seen him look like this before. Growing up so inclined, paired with such a heartbroken look, that melancholic aura could rival that of any prince in a manga.
Suddenly, there was some intolerance. Ziggy sinfully wondered if she had gone a little too far, although, she was telling the truth.
“Young Master Su, why don’t I give you the key and you go over there and take a look yourself. Actually, I’m not too sure if Lai Hao really went.” She really had no sense of propriety!
The words were already fumbling the key out of his pocket.
Looking at the key, Su Chen did not reach out to take it. Finally, opened his mouth. The nice voice was permeated with great coldness and sullenness, “Forget it, let’s stop here.”
Zige froze for a moment. Those words already sounded like she wanted to lament and lament in her ears. If Su Jie heard this, how sad would she be?
Not allowing her to think too much, the elevator door opened with a ‘ding’ sound, and without saying anything, Su Chen had already sidestepped past her and walked out with a deep step.
The back, there was an indescribable chill and depression.
After work, Yan Nan directly picked up Zi Ge to a fine cake store.
“Madam, you can go straight in, sir is already here.” Yan Nan respectfully pushed open the thick door of the cake store for her.
She nodded and walked in.
The waiter at the store directed her toward the studio at the back of the store again.
When she entered, she froze at the sight of Lan Yu Feng. Where was this the way he looked when she saw him in the past? At this moment, he was wrapped in a white apron, gloves on his hands, working hard on the dough. The cake chef at the side was instructing from the side, and he had a rare patience.
“What are you still standing there for? Go learn how to beat eggs.” He looked up to talk to her as he made the pasta.
Ziggy laughed a little, “Little Bean would sleep at night smiling if he knew you were so attentive.”
“I can’t do it alone, I have to have your help.” Lan Yu Feng glanced sideways at the side, “Over there are aprons and gloves, hurry up. The little thing is still waiting for us at home.”
Zi Ge did not dare to delay. If she went back later, the little one might be so disappointed that she thought they had forgotten about this day. However, the more disappointed they were, the more surprised they might be. Thinking of that bright smiling face, Zi Ge’s heart was sweet.
Hurriedly put on an apron and stood beside Lan Yu Feng. The pastry chef thought that she was a member of a wealthy family and must not know how to do this, and was going to teach her, Zi Ge smiled, “Thank you, no need, I just happen to know a little.”
“You can make cakes?” Lan Yu Feng looked at Zi Ge.
“Uh-huh.” Zige took a deep breath, looked at the golden yolk in her hand, and said softly and quietly, “My dad taught me that.”
Knowing that it touched her heart, Lan Yu Feng didn’t ask any more questions, and only gestured to the dim sum chef at the side, “Since she can do it, there’s no need to trouble you guys, you guys go first.”
“Okay, Mr. Blue.”
The pastry chef brought the door with him and retreated. All of a sudden, only the two of them were left in the entire workroom.
Ziggy whisked the eggs while watching him get up to speed with them. Looking at him in his apron, he couldn’t help but smile again.
“Laughing at what?” He frowned.
“I didn’t realize you looked like this in an apron.” Ignoring his warning look, Zige looked him up and down mischievously, “It’s quite nice. Wait, pose for a second and I’ll take a picture of you like this.”
“Don’t you dare!”
“Show it to Little Bean, who must be having as much fun as I am.” Someone simply ignored his stern warning and ‘clicked’ to freeze him on her phone. Looking at the chic look on the photo and his warning glare, she couldn’t help but smile away, a little smugly.
“Delete it.” Lan Yu Feng decisively ordered. It really affected his tall image. Moreover, it was still in front of his son! It was both detrimental to his image and majesty.
“No!” Zige was afraid that he would grab the phone and hurriedly hid it in her pocket.
Lan Yu Feng took one step towards her and cut her off. Narrowing his eyes, he looked at her, “Don’t force my hand.”
He raised his hand warningly, a white layer of flour on it.
“I’m not going to delete it anyway.” Zige refused, sneaking backward. Lan Yu Feng moved even faster, stretching out his white hand he cupped her face, his sunken eyes met hers, “Delete it, hurry up!”
Zi Ge’s face was immediately covered in a layer of white flour, which got all over her hair. Breaking away from his hand, she wiped her face while not forgetting to mock him, “You’re really childish!”
“Violate my portrait rights, but also dare to say that I am childish!” Lan Yu Feng raised his steps to follow him over, Zige was forced to the edge of the table by him, seeing his two hands reach over again, she narrowed her eyes and shrieked, “Don’t, I … I’ll delete it!”
Sure enough …
Lan Yu Feng’s hand paused.
But he didn’t anticipate that Zi Ge quietly touched the flour box next to him and grabbed a handful of it and threw it at his face when he wasn’t prepared.
“Meng, Zi, Ge!” He gritted his teeth and rubbed his face, his appearance becoming even worse.
Zige knew she was being unkind, but, when it came to it, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Lan Yu Feng, you look so funny! It’s really a good loss if I don’t take a picture of it and post it on Weibo.”
He had white splatters all over his hair, his eyelashes, and his lips, and it was several times worse than how she looked. This man, though, just had the ability to look like he wasn’t a mess at all.
Seeing that Zige really wasn’t afraid to die and went to pull out her cell phone, he grabbed the cream pen on the side and forced it over, “Meng Zige, today you’re dead!”
The studio wasn’t very big, and within a few steps, Ziggy was forced to the edge of the table again.
“Last chance, delete or not?” He was still making his last stand. This man, he always did not stop until he reached his goal.
“Don’t worry, you look really good like this. I promise!”
Zi Ge raised three fingers, and halfway through, her hand was suddenly clasped. In a second, the whole person was pressed onto the table by his heavy and tall body.
Dark shadows covered down, Zige’s heart leapt. The cream pen in his hand, almost landed on her face as well, as if he also realized something at this moment, his hand holding the cream froze slightly. His body, too, froze.
The line of sight, falling on her face, the color of her eyes, slightly deeper.
“Bang bang bang…” She heard her heart beating fast, as if it didn’t stop for a moment. On top of her, the man’s body, visibly tensed.
“Bang bang… bang bang…” His heartbeat was clear and powerful, but also disordered.
Each other’s breath, which had become a little thicker, clashed fiercely in the air. The air was overflowing with the fragrance and sweetness of the cake.
Looking at each other for a split second, Zi Ge immediately looked away. She wanted to tell him to go away, but her throat felt like it was blocked by something, and she couldn’t say a single superfluous word. When she was at a loss for words, she only felt his large palm suddenly roaming around her waist.
Her jaw dropped and her body tensed so tightly that even her heart popped out of her throat. This man! What’s it going to be? This was a cake store!
“You … get off me.” Her small face flushed red, her hand curled against the man’s chest. The eyelashes were trembling badly. But he ignored it, and his large palm went all the way down, directly branding her leg.
“Hey …,” Ziggy spoke again, even her voice quivering.
