One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 466: Be My Girlfriend

Song Song burst into a laugh, muttering, "You guys really are in sync."Huo Junting raised an eyebrow, a look of confusion on his handsome face, "What did you just say?"

"Oh, nothing." Seeing that Little Xiyou was already asleep in her arms, Song Song smiled and said, "Big brother, I’ll take the child to rest now. Don’t work too late."

He and Xiao Jinghuai both had a habit of working in the study until the wee hours of the morning before going to bed. Several times before, he got up at midnight to find something to eat because he was too hungry and saw that the light in his study was still on.

To many people, their success seemed easily achieved, but those close to them knew exactly what they had sacrificed.

Huo Junting smiled knowingly, just about to say something when his phone rang in his pocket. When he pulled it out and saw the caller ID, his smile deepened.

Song Song wasn’t foolish; she obviously knew who was calling. She tactfully said, "I won’t disturb your sweet talk, I’m off."

Huo Junting smiled slightly, pressed the answer button, and a burst of crying came from the other side—

...

At this moment, in the rented apartment of Yuan Yumeng, she and Ye Zhengzheng sat cross-legged on the tatami, with a small table between them, holding a homemade yuanyang hot pot.

Although Yuan Yumeng had already had afternoon tea with her colleagues, the sight of the food still made her appetite soar, and she kept adding ingredients to the spicy side...

It was halfway through when she realized there was someone sitting across from her!

Immediately feeling a little embarrassed, she stammered and asked, "Can you handle spicy food?"

Compared to Yuan Yumeng’s slightly hunched sitting posture, Ye Zheng’s posture could be described as akin to an immortal sage.

When Yuan Yumeng looked at him, for a fleeting moment, she felt that the man sitting in front of her was from ancient times, graceful and handsome, with an ethereal aura. Behind him, the world was covered in white snow, and they weren’t eating hot pot but sitting under a plum tree savoring a vintage daughter’s red wine...

It felt quite surreal.

"I can."

The rich voice snapped Yuan Yumeng back to reality, waking her instantly from her imagination.

She scratched her head a little sheepishly and said, "Why is it you alone again today, that..."

Did she really have to say it outright?

Although she was a seasoned fujoshi, she still had some modesty, and saying it directly felt a bit embarrassing.

"Who?"

Ye Zheng inquired in a gentle voice.

Yuan Yumeng bit her chopsticks and looked at him. Whenever he spoke, it was always so soft and gentle that it was hard to read his emotions. It seemed he was just such a person, a man of few words, always at a constant temperature, with no temper.

But this didn’t mean he seemed approachable. On the contrary, he had a peculiar aloofness, especially when you looked into his eyes; the intensity in them was incredibly powerful.

Yuan Yumeng pondered for a while, then with eyes darting around, she said, "I mean, your boyfriend! I’ve moved in for a while now, but I’ve never seen him. Does he always stay in the room and never come out?"

"Boyfriend?"

Ye Zheng raised an elegant brow.

"...Yeah." Yuan Yumeng nodded lightly.

At this moment, Yuan Yumeng kept her head down, so she didn’t see the rare hint of amusement in the man’s eyes, "I think there’s a bit of misunderstanding."

"Hmm?"

Yuan Yumeng looked up and saw a pair of clear eyes hiding a playful smile. She was momentarily stunned, with her mind going blank.

Ye Zheng seized the opportunity and immediately said, "You be my girlfriend."

Yuan Yumeng: "Huh?"
