Ye Xian: "..." CEO, you really know how to take advantage of a situation. Who in their right mind would harbor dangerous thoughts about you? Bo Tingshen's long arm, which was propped up next to her, slightly bent, as his tall figure continuously leaned in towards her, the distance getting closer and closer, so close that Ye Xian could almost feel his faintly warm breath spilling over her sensitive ears, leaving her almost breathless. Why was the scent of Agarwood everywhere? Her body was tightly pressed against the wall, as if she was trying to mold herself into it. "Of, of course not! CEO, you're so full of yourself!" "Then why don't you dare to go to the private swimming pool with me?" Pushed into a corner, Ye Xian had no choice but to close her eyes and cry out, "Because I feel inferior! I'm afraid that next to you, I would look 'pathetically inadequate'!" Wuwuwu, for the sake of survival, she sold out her male dignity. She didn't want to live anymore! Bo Tingshen paused, and after realizing what she meant, chuckled. The man's extremely charismatic voice gently undulated near her ear, like ripples swirling into her ears, the frequency gently vibrating, ticklish. He was laughing? Was he mocking her for being a little chick? "CEO, don't... don't take it too far!" Outside the door, Shangguan Yunli was sneakily pressing his ear against the door panel, trying to eavesdrop on the noises inside, but after listening for a while... he only heard a man's laughter? Was that Tingshen's laughter? The Sun must have risen from the west, Tingshen was actually laughing? And he seemed so cheerful? Could it be that they were engaged in some 'pleasurable' activity? They had been so sickeningly sweet in public just before, and now alone together in a room, wouldn't things escalate?! Shangguan Yunli stood up straight with a serious face. How could this be okay? He had set up this scenario to play a prank on them, not to create a lovely, loving atmosphere for them! Deciding this, he knocked on the door, "Tingshen, Ye Xian, are you done changing?" Upon hearing the noise, Bo Tingshen withheld his smile and looked towards the door with a touch of impatience at being disturbed. Before he could speak, Ye Xian quickly shouted, "All done! All done! We'll be right there!" The same Ye Xian who had been scared to go to the public pool now felt that, compared to the CEO's private pool, the public pool was downright safe! "If you're done, let's go. The swimming competition is about to start." Ye Xian's mouth was suddenly covered by Bo Tingshen's hand, "No need, we'll go to the private pool." Shangguan Yunli: "?" When did they get a private pool here? Is Tingshen referring to the private pool upstairs? Damn! Miscalculation! Ye Xian's eyes widened as she desperately tried to pull his hand away. No! She didn't want to go to the private pool with him! "CEO, let's go to the public swimming pool~" Ye Xian pulled his hand away, her eyes begging, "Didn't Shangguan Yunli just say there was a swimming competition? I just want to see you in all your glory at the swimming competition. Of course, if you're not up to it... just pretend I didn't say anything." Bo Tingshen, upon hearing the words 'not up to it', involuntarily narrowed his dark eyes. "What did you say?" Ye Xian feigned innocence, shaking her head, "I didn't say anything. CEO, just pretend you heard nothing." Bo Tingshen let her go, and Ye Xian glimpsed his expression out of the corner of her eye. That look was... Bo Tingshen opened the door. Shangguan Yunli, caught in his frustration, was caught off guard when Bo Tingshen opened the door, dressed in swimwear, whereas Ye Xian was still fully clothed. "?" Do they enjoy playing these kinds of games? Shangguan Yunli: "?" Where are you going? Ye Xian: "!" Coconut! Just like Shanshan's novel said, there isn't a man who can handle someone saying he's not up to par! Ye Xian: "You guys go ahead, I need to use the restroom first!" She needed to check her gear. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel fire.net Bo Tingshen's steps halted, and he turned to look at her, "Ye Xian, don't even think about..." Ye Xian knew what he was going to say, "I absolutely won't run away. If I do, CEO, you can punish me however you like!" Shangguan Yunli: "..." Well, look at that, she's getting bold right in front of him. Ye Xian looked at his retreating figure, took a deep breath, stayed in the restroom for a long while, and finally, in front of the mirror, she patted her flat chest, encouraging herself, "It's okay, Ye Xian, you can do this!" The swimming pool party was divided into A and B zones, separated only by a walkway. Ye Xian, clutching her little yellow duck swim ring, tiptoed up to the dividing line. She glanced seemingly unintentionally toward the A zone's female pool, where each big-chested, long-legged beauty restrainedly played with water by the poolside. That was the place she should be entering! But if she went in now, she'd definitely be caught as a pervert. She steeled herself and headed towards zone B. Upon entering, she heard the boisterous laughter of dozens of men mingling together. Ye Xian slowly lifted her head, feeling almost as if she had entered a male bathhouse with the pool's shocking presence! The crystal clear pool, the pristine floor, the men sitting, standing, conversing, or swimming – since most were from the same circles, they either had strong chests and long legs or perky butts and abs. The sight was so impressive that Ye Xian's pupils inadvertently dilated. Lucky she wasn't a lustful woman, otherwise, she'd be spurting nosebleed three meters high at this moment. Cary was joking around with Xiao Yixuan and Liang Liang when he suddenly saw a figure. He turned his face toward the entrance and saw Ye Xian, clutching her little yellow duck swim ring tightly, staring dumbfounded at the pool. Why hasn't he changed clothes? And why is he just standing there? He looks as tense as someone who's never seen the world before. Having been teammates with him for over two years, he'd never seen what he looked like stark naked. Not just stark naked, he hadn't even seen his legs. It must be because he's ashamed of his poor figure, too embarrassed to show off. Thinking this, Cary walked toward her with no good intentions, followed by Xiao Yixuan, Zhou Zhaoxu, and Liang Liang. "Ye Xian, you're here. Why haven't you changed into a swimsuit?" The three greeted her while Cary snatched away her little yellow duck swim ring, "Ye Xian, what are you doing with a baby's swim ring?" Ye Xian: "..." Seeing three men, wearing only swim trunks and approaching her, inevitably made her even more nervous. "For infants, huh?" No wonder it's so small. "Yeah, and why haven't you changed into a swimsuit? Don't tell me, you're planning on skinny dipping? Let me help you with that!" As Cary moved to strip off her clothes, Ye Xian yelled out and darted toward Lin Yan and Jiang Wanze, who were not far off. "Lin Yan, Captain, help me quick!" Lin Yan and Jiang Wanze rose to react but, midway, Ye Xian bumped into Shangguan Yunli. Shangguan Yunli grabbed her arm and asked Cary puzzledly, "What's going on?" Cary looked at her making a fuss and shrugged, "Who knows. I was just helping him off with his shirt, and he acts like I'm trying to take his life." Shangguan Yunli: "But his clothes aren't wet, why would he take them off?" Ye Xian nodded furiously. Shangguan Yunli considered the clear water of the pool beside them, of course, clothes have to be wet before being taken off, right? He pulled on Ye Xian's arm, forcefully pushing her toward the pool.
