The runaway Cinderella of the billionaire president

Looking at the bouquets of flowers placed at the front desk and Zhao Kang's shameless face, Zhou Yian had a headache.

No matter how she refused, Zhao Kang just wouldn't give up and kept pestering her. This had already had a negative impact on her work, but facing a shameless person like Zhao Kang, she had no choice but to admit that she was unlucky.

"Zhao Kang, what do you want? I said I won't like you, there's no way we can be together." Zhou Yian asked angrily.

"I don't want anything, I just want you to be my girlfriend.

"I told you, I don't like you. If you do this again, I will call the police."

"Call the police? I don't think it's illegal for me to do that. How about this, you promise me one thing? If you do it, I promise not to harass you in the future. How about it, do you dare?" Zhao Kang said with a grin.

"You say." Zhou Yian sighed helplessly.

"As long as you are willing to accompany me to the dinner hosted by the Lin Group tonight, I will stop harassing you from tomorrow. How about it? Do you dare to come?"

"Why should I trust you?"

"Because I am a man, a man's word is his bond, and I will keep my word."

"Okay, I promise you."

"It's a deal. I'll prepare the dress for you and pick you up to change into it when the time comes."

"No, I don't trust you. Give me the dress. I'll take a taxi to the dinner venue and wait for you."

"It's all right, as long as you can come." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Zhao Kang left with a look of satisfaction, looking like a villain who had succeeded.

Tonight is the 20th anniversary of the Lin Group. An anniversary party was held in the most luxurious five-star hotel in Tianshui City. Those invited were top businessmen and celebrities.

As the party began, the bright glass lights shone like stars in the night sky, and the melodious piano music added a romantic atmosphere to the dinner.

The jeweled tableware and exquisite desserts placed on the table are mouth-watering.

Xu Zehao appeared at the dinner party wearing a tailor-made suit.

He was tall, wearing a well-ironed suit with a high collar that set off his angular face, deep eyes, and a high nose bridge. He exuded a noble temperament. Although he was not the protagonist tonight, everyone paid more attention to him than the protagonist.

His handsome figure not only attracted the attention of many wealthy girls and celebrities, but also attracted the attention of the men present, because everyone knows that as long as you can get in touch with Xu Zehao in the business world, it will be a hundred benefits with no harm.

However, the coldness in his eyes and the indifferent temperament that kept strangers away from him deterred many visitors from approaching him.

When Zhao Kang and Zhou Yian appeared at the scene, it caused quite a commotion.

She was wearing a beige dress that reached her ankles, with long, fine black hair draped over her shoulders. Her face, without any makeup, looked natural and pretty, with a kind of temperament that was untainted by the dust of the world. She was tall, had a beautiful face, and outstanding temperament. Even though there were many beautiful women at the scene, she was not inferior to them, and was even better.

When Zhao Kang stood next to her, she looked like a flower stuck in cow dung, totally out of place. In addition, her style and temperament were completely different from the female companions Zhao Kang had brought out before, so people couldn't help but talk about it.

"Mr. Zhao, you have changed your taste. This beauty is good. She is much better than those mediocre girls you brought before. She is the best in the world." A busybody joked.

"Who doesn't love beautiful women? Hahaha," Zhao Kang responded proudly.

When Xu Zehao saw Zhou Yian appear on the scene, he seemed a little surprised, but when he saw Zhao Kang standing next to her, he seemed to understand something. His deep eyes revealed a chill that made people shudder.

"Come, Yian, come here. Let me show you the celebrity of our Tianshui City, the big shot of our business circle, the boss of your company, the famous Mr. Xu. Without me, you would never be able to see him so closely in your life." Zhao Kang introduced Xu Zehao to Zhou Yian with a proud look on his face, and while speaking, he took Zhou Yian towards Xu Zehao.

"Mr. Xu, it's me, Zhao Kang. We drank together last time, do you remember?" Zhao Kang smiled with a fawning look on his face, lowering his head and bending over, like a pug wagging its tail to ask its owner for a bone.

Zhao Kang was so eager to bring Zhou Yian to meet Xu Zehao for two reasons: one was to show off to Zhou Yian, and the other was to put pressure on her so that she would obey.

Zhou Yian stared at the man's face and suddenly remembered that he was the man she had bumped into at the door of the conference room before. Thinking of his disgusted expression that day, she instantly felt a little uneasy, her eyes began to avoid, and she didn't dare to look him in the eye.

"Mr. Zhao has made progress. The quality of the beauties this time is many times better than before. They are stunning beauties on earth." The words were directed to Zhao Kang, but Xu Zehao did not even look at Zhao Kang. He kept staring at Zhou Yian, and no emotion could be seen in his deep eyes.

"I'm not his woman." Looking at Xu Zehao's eyes, Zhou Yian felt inexplicably a little wary. There seemed to be a fleeting hatred in his eyes, and she hurriedly explained.

"Oh, really? Does that mean I also have a chance to pursue you, Miss Zhou?" Xu Zehao replied indifferently, with the corners of his mouth raised, as if smiling.

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Yan, Zhao Kang and Zhou Yian who were present were all shocked.

"Mr. Xu, are you kidding? Do you know her?" Lin Yan asked from the side.

"I don't know him, I was just joking." Xu Zehao sneered, "Do you know me? Miss Zhou Yian."

"No, you really know her?" Lin Yan exclaimed in disbelief.

"You are the boss of our company." Zhou Yian replied weakly.

"So that's how it is. I was wondering how could a beautiful woman catch his eye after knowing him for so many years? It turns out she is your subordinate." Lin Yan sighed to himself. He had known Xu Zehao for so many years, but he had never seen a woman around him. Sometimes he even suspected that he had an unclear sexual orientation or some body function was not working. After all, a man like him who was completely uninterested in women was a rare commodity.

Most of the people at the banquet were businessmen from the upper class. There were too many people who wanted to curry favor with a corporate leader like Xu, who could make things happen with a wave of his hand. Soon, Xu Zehao was surrounded by people in three layers.

Zhao Kang realized that he was not popular with Xu Zehao, so he took Zhou Yian to the other side of the party. What they didn't know was that the pair of eyes behind them were watching their leaving backs with a gloomy face.

Zhou Yian didn't like this kind of occasion, and the purpose of attending the dinner this time was just to get rid of the entanglement. Zhao Kang wanted to talk to her, but she was too lazy to pay attention to her and ate by herself. Zhao Kang was bored and felt that Zhou Yian was more and more boring, so he ran to drink and chat with other beauties.

Zhou Yian looked at the stern-looking man in the distance and felt that he didn't seem very friendly to her. She even felt that he seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards her. Later, she thought that it might be because of Zhao Kang. She was misunderstood as the kind of woman who sold her beauty for money and hooked up with rich men.

Perhaps, everyone present tonight would think so, but thinking that she would be able to get rid of Zhao Kang, the scabby boy, tomorrow, she felt inexplicably happy and couldn't help but chuckle.

Xu Zehao, who was far away, looked at the girl sitting alone in the corner with a sweet smile on her face. He didn't know what he remembered and smiled bitterly.

After the dinner, Zhao Kang told Zhou Yian that he was too busy to take her home and asked her to take a taxi back by herself. This was exactly what Zhou Yian wanted, as she didn't want Zhao Kang to be busy to take her home.

Zhao Kang hooked up with a hot beauty at the scene. Compared with the cold Zhou Yian, the passionate beauty made Zhao Kang lose his mind. After the dinner, the two of them couldn't wait to go straight to the hotel.

Who knew that after leaving the banquet hall, Zhou Yian went downstairs to find that it was drizzling outside. The rain under the night sky enveloped the entire city. The city seemed particularly quiet, as if silently accusing something.

Just as Zhou Yian was standing at the door of the hotel at a loss, worrying about how she would get back without an umbrella, a black car stopped in front of her. The window slowly rolled down, revealing Xu Zehao's expressionless poker face.

"Get in the car." The tone was like an order, so overbearing that no one could refuse.

Zhou Yian hesitated for a moment.

"Why, are you afraid that I will eat you?"

Zhou Yian looked at the rainy sky, then at the dark street, gritted his teeth, opened the handle of the back door, and got in.

"Where do you live?"

"Binhai Road Yunshui Yayuan..."

Zhou Yian gave the name of an upscale residential complex not far from her home. She didn't want a stranger to know her exact address, especially since the other person was a man.

After reporting the address, the two stopped talking. The car was eerily quiet. Zhou Yian felt that the atmosphere was extremely awkward. He just hoped that time would pass quickly so that he could return home earlier.
