Yan Rusheng became even more livid . "You don't know anything, so how would you know that Flourish & Prosper is taking a risk?! First Uncle's company is investing in Flourish & Prosper if we acquired that land . What risks am I taking?"
Xuxu widened her eyes in surprise, and for a moment her throat seemed to be choked with something . She couldn't utter a single sound .
First Uncle was managing a company that belonged to his wife . If Yan Rusheng had sought for First Uncle, it meant that he indirectly sought help from an outsider .
Usually, it was others who begged or tried to pander to him . He could even reject a major collaboration with Country Y without a second thought, and would even wait for the person to apologize to him first .
Now, he had gone to seek help from others… just for that piece of land .
"You don't trust me after all . " Yan Rusheng's cold voice carried a tinge of disappointment .

He spun around after that and continued to ascend the stairs .
"Ah Sheng, it's not like that . " Xuxu watched his retreating back, and suddenly she came back to her senses . She ran up the stairs in haste . Feeling anxious and at a loss for words, she extended her arms and embraced him from the back without thinking .
Yan Rusheng's body went rigid . All nerves in his body seemed to have tightened immediately at her touch .
Xuxu breathed deeply and expounded, "I wasn't aware that you went to First Uncle regarding the land . So I've found another location for the orphanage, and it's even better than the previous location . "
Yan Rusheng turned his head and stared at her . "It's the fact that you don't believe in me . "
He moved his hands as he tried to pry off Xuxu's arms away from his waist .
But to his surprise, her frail and tiny body was much stronger than it seemed . He didn't manage to pull her hands apart .

"Didn't you bid for the land to help me solve the problem of relocating Tiny Stars Orphanage? I've found a solution . " Xuxu pressed her face to Yan Rusheng's back and tightened her grip around his waist .
She intended to act shamelessly with him .
She had already planned what she wanted to do .
She couldn't think of any way to appease him, and so like before, she shall act in the same way as he did .
Yan Rusheng spun his head around . He rolled his eyes at her . "Don't think too highly of yourself . I've merely seen the potential for profit in that piece of land . "
Xuxu smiled . "I don't believe you . You're lying . "
If she wasn't working in Flourish & Prosper, wasn't working beside him and didn't know the current situation in Flourish & Prosper, she might have believed that he was interested in that land because of its potential .
"Wen Xuxu, you're really shameless . " While Xuxu was still talking, Yan Rusheng took this to his advantage to pry her arms apart . He then moved away quickly .
Xuxu went forward but failed to catch him .
She saw how Yan Rusheng had walked away, and she became troubled .
They had gotten along well these few days while exchanging texts . She knew he was still furious at the moment . Even though she had given up on the bidding for the sake of Flourish & Prosper, there was no denying that she had indeed lied to him . It was only right that he was angry with her .
The most pressing matter was to appease him right away .
Yan Rusheng didn't come out of his room .
Xuxu couldn't make him open the door, so she went back to her room to text him .
"Don't behave like a woman and lock yourself in the room when you're angry . '"
"Yan Rusheng, don't you want to know why I've called your name while I was unconscious? Open the door and I'll tell you . "
She sent him several texts but Yan Rusheng didn't reply at all .
Xuxu leaned against the headrest of the bed as she hugged her knees . There wasn't any notification from her phone at all .
"I can't wait to hug you when you're not wearing any clothes…"
She suddenly recalled the text that Yan Rusheng had sent her two days ago, and she began to hatch a plan!
