Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 844

Chapter 844: Chapter 845: CEO, I Was Wrong Again

Ye Xian clutched her phone and sprinted towards her room at top speed, but halfway there, Xia Hewan and Ye Zhuoxuan blocked her way. "Xianxian, what were you talking about with Young Master Lu just now?"

"Nothing much, just a few pleasantries."

She tried to slip past them, but was grabbed by Ye Shaowen from behind, "Xiao Yezi, what did that Lu kid offer you?"

"He didn’t offer anything!"

"I saw it, it was a bracelet. Did he think he could win over my sister’s heart with a trinket? Dream on, my sister only wants things from me! Right?"

Ye Xian: "Right, right, right!" You’re so narcissistic, you’re always right!

Ye Shaowen thought about the ’treasure’ bracelet he gave Ye Xian some time ago, recalling how happy she was and how different she acted when she refused Lu Cen just now. He became terribly smug, "Xiao Yezi, take out the bracelet I gave you before and show it to your big brother!"

Show it, hurry...

Ye Xian was about to reach out before she quickly withdrew her hand.

Damn it, she forgot that the CEO had swapped out the bracelet her second brother gave her!

Ye Shaowen: "?"

Ye Xian, playing the victim, ran to Ye Juncheng, "Big Brother, look at Second Brother, he’s so annoying! My phone has been ringing all day with work calls, and I haven’t had time to answer."

"Shaowen."

The moment Ye Juncheng spoke, Ye Shaowen behaved himself.

Ye Xian stuck out her tongue at him and dashed into her room.

"Hey~"

Ye Shaowen watched her antics and laughed even more happily. Why hold onto something he gave as a gift? It’s not like he’d take it back.

The door was locked, and Ye Xian finally answered the phone just before the ringtone could sound once more.

On the other end, there was a long silence, faintly interspersed with the subtle breathing of a man.

From the deep breathing, Ye Xian sensed a mix of restraint and agitation. A drumbeat started in her heart—she was done for! She stood up the CEO, hung up on his calls, and only answered after he called three times. She was doomed!

"C-CEO, what are you doing right now?"

Ye Xian bit her lip in fear and cautiously probed.

What greeted her was an expectedly eerie voice, as if it wanted to grind her bones, "I want to handle you right now."

Ye Xian: "... CEO, I was wrong."

"Wrong again?" Bo Tingshen glanced at his phone, wishing he could drag the person listed in his contacts over and give her a good ’talking to.’

"Ye Xian, I canceled three important meetings to attend your award ceremony and planned a candlelight dinner to celebrate with you. Yet, you left without a word of explanation?"

Ye Xian, hearing his tone like a jilted little wife complaining, nibbled her finger, full of guilt. "I’m sorry, CEO. I didn’t mean to. It was a special circumstance at the time. Otherwise, I would never have stood you up. I dream of having dinner with you!"

Dream of it?

Bo Tingshen was thrown off by this unintentional comment, "Really?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Seeing that flattery worked, Ye Xian promptly continued, "Of course! Ever since I moved out from Jiuxi Eighteen Islands, I’ve been missing those days making dinner for you, CEO. Even though it was a bit tiring, it was especially cozy and heartwarming, especially watching you eat."

After she spoke, there was a pause on the other side, and his tone noticeably softened, less frightening, "Is that so? It seems you were the one who ate more."

Ye Xian: "..." Hitting below the belt, pointing out her flaw.

"What was the emergency?"

He loosened his collar as if he wasn’t as angry anymore and started asking about the reason.

Ye Xian couldn’t come up with a suitable excuse after a while, so she took the bold step of playing the ’dutiful daughter’ card, "Aunt Xia...she’s sick."

"Sick?"

The man’s voice deepened, not only without doubt but with a hint of concern, "Is it serious? I’ll come over to check."

Eh?

Ye Xian was a little curious; could it really be to celebrate? His tone didn’t sound like it.

"What do you think? Of course, to ’serve’ me."

"..." Ye Xian got it. Once again, she’s to be a maid, cleaning and cooking!

"Okay."

"You owe me. I can do whatever I want with you."

"Got it."

Ye Xian puffed out her cheeks. Hearing his tone, what chore was going to put her through this time?

"Agreed?"

In the dark, the man’s eyes slightly narrowed, apparently not expecting her to agree so easily.

"Mm-hmm."

Bo Tingshen: "No resisting."

Ye Xian found it somewhat amusing. Resist? As if she could, he could pin her down with just a finger.

Bo Tingshen: "I recorded our conversation. If you dare to back out..."

Ye Xian pricked up her ears, listening as he slowly said, "I’ll tie you to the bed."

That voice was like a chainsaw-wielding maniac from a horror movie.

"CEO, you..." You’re such a pervert!

"What about me?"

"Wha-what are you thinking? I surely won’t resist. It’s my pleasure to serve you!"
