Zhao Tianya giggled mischievously, claiming it was a slip of the tongue and telling Ye Fan not to be mad, whether that was true or not was anyone’s guess. “Tonight? Sure,” Ye Fan said. After all, the department dinner was done, and starting the KTV session with too many people wasn’t necessarily fun, so he planned to sneak out early. Hearing Ye Fan’s agreement, Zhao Tianya laughed coquettishly, “That’s more like it. If you dared to cancel again, you would truly break your sister’s heart. Hurry over, I’m already at the Tianfei Night Club. If you don’t come quickly, another man will take me away. Giggles…” Ye Fan felt a bit embarrassed; he had already agreed to come, yet Zhao Tianya still playfully threatened him. “Got it, I’m on my way,” Ye Fan responded with feigned enthusiasm. After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan walked back to the coffee table in the private room and sat down beside Hu Jing. Due to the noise, he leaned in close and said to Hu Jing, “Beauty Hu, something urgent came up, and I have to leave first. Have fun with the other colleagues.” Hu Jing was taken aback by Ye Fan’s sudden departure and felt quite displeased. She turned and whispered into Ye Fan’s ear, “Why are you leaving so soon? Play a little longer before you go!” She had organized this department dinner half for work, half for personal reasons. For work, because the company had overcome a crisis and needed to boost morale; privately, it was naturally to create an opportunity to interact with Ye Fan and deepen their rapport without making it obvious. Now, just as the KTV’s prime time for intimate chats had started, before she’d had the chance to sing a love song with Ye Fan, before she’d had the chance to sit close to him and chat in hushed tones due to the loud noise, Ye Fan was announcing he was leaving early. This naturally upset her. Ye Fan hadn’t thought that far; he only knew that with so many people present, they wouldn’t miss one. Perhaps they’d have more fun without him. And since Zhao Tianya was alone, he indeed needed to go over there quickly. “Heh, there really is something very urgent,” Ye Fan said, “We’ll have a good time next time, department events are bound to come around anyway.” Seeing that Ye Fan was resolute about leaving, and lacking a compelling reason to stop him, Hu Jing also recalled that she shared an office with Ye Fan and would have plenty of other chances, so she reluctantly agreed. Ten or twenty minutes later, Ye Fan stepped into the lobby of Tianfei Night Club and immediately felt its elegance and tranquility, with the soothing sound of live piano playing softly in the background like moonlit water flowing slowly, and the men and women seated inside dressed in their finest and looking stunning, a significant upscale shift from the noisy KTV atmosphere. Ye Fan glanced across the room and immediately saw a beautiful young woman, fair-skinned and alluring, waving to him with her lotus-root-like arms raised high. Upon seeing Zhao Tianya, Ye Fan couldn’t help but smile and walk over to her with brisk steps. “Heh, Sister Zhao, sorry to have kept you waiting,” Ye Fan said with a smile as he sat on the sofa opposite Zhao Tianya. His eyes swept the table, noting three or four plates with snacks like charcoal-grilled squid, specialty braised duck heads, and also a plate of cashews imported from the United States and a plate of pistachios, along with a fruit platter. Of course, two bottles of red wine and two tall wine glasses were a given. The wine glass in front of Zhao Tianya held a small half-cup of dark red wine. Zhao Tianya gave Ye Fan a coquettish glance, a touch of reproach in her voice, “Good to know. It’s so annoying for such a beautiful woman like me to fend off men who come up to chat when sitting here alone.” “Hehe, yes, yes,” Ye Fan chuckled apologetically. Zhao Tianya giggled melodiously and suddenly leaned half her body toward Ye Fan, bringing herself a few inches closer. She sniffed with her delicate nose and said, “You smell of alcohol. Have you been drinking just now?” “Your nose is really sharp,” Ye Fan said with a light smile. “We had a dinner with the department tonight, of course there was some drinking.” Zhao Tianya sat back on the couch, responded, and with her tender, jade-like hand, she reached for the bottle of red wine and poured the drink for Ye Fan herself. After filling Ye Fan’s glass, she poured herself more than half a glass. Once the wine was poured, she put the bottle back on the table, looked up at Ye Fan, and said, “Which department are you in at Emali Group? I’m quite familiar with your chairman, Li Zhaojun. I’ll ask her to take extra care of you next time we dine together.” “No, don’t!” Ye Fan exclaimed in alarm, secretly relieved that Zhao Tianya was someone who couldn’t keep her words hidden. It was fortunate she spoke out, as it would have been awkward if she had directly approached Li Zhaojun. Ye Fan hadn’t personally witnessed Zhao Tianya’s acquaintance with Li Zhaojun, but he could guess. Since Zhao Tianya had visited Emali Group twice, she must know Li Zhaojun. “Why not?” Zhao Tianya asked with a slight surprise, finding Ye Fan’s reaction a bit strange. Ye Fan quickly thought of an excuse and said with feigned embarrassment, “No reason, I just don’t want people to think I’m relying on women’s support.” “Giggle,” Zhao Tianya giggled flirtatiously at Ye Fan, “Don’t you want to depend on your auntie’s support? Oh, my mistake, I meant to say sister’s support.” Ye Fan chuckled and joked, “Stealing a bit of your support on the sly is still acceptable to me.” “That’s more like it,” Zhao Tianya’s beautiful brows revealed a joyful expression. The two raised their glasses of red wine and clinked them together with a “ding,” each drinking half of their glass. After a few sips of wine, a blush rose on Zhao Tianya’s stunningly beautiful face, making her exceptionally gorgeous and seductive. They chatted pleasantly for a while before Zhao Tianya suddenly asked, “Ye Fan, let’s take a closer look, does the watch I gave you look good on you?” Ye Fan smiled and lifted his left wrist, adorned with the forty to fifty thousand yuan Rolex watch, onto the table for Zhao Tianya to see. Zhao Tianya looked at Ye Fan’s left wrist and said, “The light here is too dim, I can’t see clearly. Stretch out your hand a bit more.” Ye Fan responded somewhat speechlessly, extending his hand further as instructed. After all, it didn’t really matter if a man’s watch looked good or not. After stretching his wrist to the center of the table, Zhao Tianya said, “I still can’t see it very well, stretch it a little further over.” “You’re not nearsighted, are you?” Ye Fan said with a light smile, but still extended his hand further forward. While they were talking, Ye Fan suddenly felt his hand being grasped by a smooth, soft little hand, followed by his wrist, still wearing the watch, being gently stroked by another smooth, soft little hand. “Hmm, it looks passable,” Zhao Tianya remarked offhandedly while looking at Ye Fan’s wrist, suggesting, “It might look even better with that gold watch.” Ye Fan hesitated about pulling his hand back, not really wanting to, so he let Zhao Tianya hold his hand, saying with a hint of embarrassment, “What suits you is more important. I feel very good about this watch.” “Mm-hm,” Zhao Tianya replied with a couple of nods, looked carefully for a while longer, and eventually let go of Ye Fan’s hand.
