Without waiting for Mixiao to reply, he reminded her of the harsh reality . “Anyway, you don’t have any leave to take . ”
“Oh… right . ” Mixiao hung her head and looked like a deflated balloon . Her lips sunk and she had lost all her fighting spirit .
She had second thoughts about entering the contest .
That was true . Even if he helped her win the complimentary voucher, what was the use? She had no time to stay on this beautiful island .
She seemed dejected when Su Yan cut across, “But you can sell it at a discounted price . ”
Mixiao heard him and raised her head . She stared at Su Yan, looking puzzled by suggestions . “That’s not very nice, isn’t it?”
She glanced at the stage that was packed with contestants . All of them looked determined to win . She mumbled, “I think we should let the real couples have a chance . They deserve the resort stay and the diamond ring . ”
She still looked as if she was a little reluctant and sad .
“Let’s go . ”
Su Yan suddenly grabbed Mixiao’s wrist and pulled her towards the stage .
Mixiao was an athlete, so she was quite strong for a girl . It took Su Yan a considerable amount of effort to pull her along as she resisted .
He glanced back at her and said, “Give it a try . If you don’t want the prizes, you can give it to me . ”
Mixiao frowned and protested . “President Su, the resort belongs to your family, right?”
Why would he need a complimentary stay?
“If you have a travel partner in mind, I can consider giving you a week of leave . ”
Su Yan stopped in his tracks when they got to the stage . He relinquished his grip on her hand and grinned at her .
He quietly observed the changes in her expression . From shock, it changed to surprise, then evolved into excitement . The transition was what he had anticipated and what he wanted to see .
“Really!?” Mixiao peered at him with a twinkle in her eyes . She looked thrilled .
Su Yan narrowed his eyes . “Do I look like a liar?”
A breeze ruffled Mixiao’s hair and blew some of her hair across her face .
Su Yan couldn’t help himself and unconsciously tucked her hair behind her ear . He was very gentle, as though she was something that he cherished .
His actions had shocked Mixiao . Her mouth widened as she blankly stared at him .
‘What was President Su… trying to do? What was he doing?’
“A penny for your thoughts?” Su Yan broke into a captivating smile .
“President Su…?” Mixiao spluttered as she retreated backward .
Su Yan’s hand hovered in mid-air as he peered at Mixiao . She looked wary and cautious and it made him chuckle . His gorgeous face seemed to glitter brilliantly in the sunlight .
Mixiao frowned with disapproval and hostility . “President Su, what are you doing? Why are you so nice to me?”
She finally realized that something was amiss .
He gave in to her during dinner, and deliberately let her win so that she wouldn’t need to work overtime in the future .
Now, he suggested that they join the contest and even agreed to allow her to go on leave . Now… he even tidied her hair .
Su Yan merely maintained a smile in response .
Mixiao pursed her lips when he didn’t respond . She stiffly said, “President Su, I reckon we shouldn’t join the contest . There is no reason for us to . ”
She suspected that he, like other bosses, wanted to have a fling with his secretary…
Su Yan was really the epitome of being tall, wealthy, and handsome, and women would be at his beck and call .
