Hello Love, Goodbye Billionaire

Chapter 37 – Are You Free Tonight?



Hearing that the door behind her has opened, Stephanie Ruan turned around and is surprised to see Javier Zhong coming in as well.

“Your meeting has ended so quickly?” She asked.

Well, when she was there earlier, it definitely did not look like it was ending anytime soon…NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Mmm… You brought something for me?” Javier Zhong carefully avoided her question and his eyes immediately shifted to the lunch box that she is still holding on to.

He is obviously not confessing to her about how he hastily ended an important weekly meeting that has barely started just because he’d rather be with her…

“Oh, just something small that I made for breakfast! Care to join me?” After placing her handbag down on the desk, she headed toward the dining area and laid out the homemade food on the table.

Toasted sandwiches with fluffy eggs, ham, and melted cheese… Home-baked scones with jam… Yoghurt parfaits with several fresh fruits…

Wow!! Looks delicious!!

To Stephanie Ruan, these food are relatively simple to prepare but if one were to look at the end-product, they would not be able to justify so.

Hmm, what could we say… She is simply talented at everything she does!!

And with the help of Javier Zhong, both of them managed to set up the table very quickly.

“Here… Eat more!” While focusing on filling up Stephanie Ruan’s empty plate, Javier Zhong also gently urged her to start digging in.

“It’s okay! You don’t have to take it for me, I can do it on my own…”

But unfortunately, her words fell on deaf ears as Javier Zhong went a step further to slice up the sandwiches and scones into smaller pieces, just to make it easier for her to consume them.

“??…”

Being a 21st-century independent woman, Stephanie Ruan is not used to having a man ‘serving’ her in such a way, much less Javier Zhong who is not even her boyfriend.

At this moment, she is obviously feeling very uncomfortable…

“A-hem… I’ll use the washroom first.” Stephanie Ruan spoke to him with an awkward smile.

Knowing that she is unable to dissuade the stubborn man and that he would need quite some time to finish slicing up the food, she might as well head to somewhere else first to ease the discomfort.

“Mmm okay.” Since the private bedroom is just a couple of steps away from the dining area, there is no need for Javier Zhong to walk her there.

However, Stephanie Ruan has clearly underestimated his abilities as he finished what he was doing within the next minute.

As such, Javier Zhong could only sit there and wait for her patiently.

Just then, he heard a few knocks on the main door.

“Come in!” Javier Zhong ordered while still remaining seated.

“Chairman Zhong, there is a lady from IGF Entertainment who wants to meet with you now.” Isaac Wen held onto his work phone in one hand while reporting to him.

“Tell them to send a male representative. I won’t entertain her!”

It is a well-known piece of information in the business industry that his boss does not meet up individually with females, even if it is for work reasons.

So naturally, everyone wants to be on Javier Zhong’s good side and no one would want to risk the chance of offending the most powerful man in the country!

Therefore, companies who are working with him would surely be careful to only send male representatives to their business meetings.

Although Isaac Wen is fully aware of this, he still felt that he should check with Javier Zhong this time as IGF Entertainment is the largest artiste management agency in the country.

They are known to only have A-list actors and actresses under their ‘wing’ and Zhong Holdings has been actively engaging them for all of their marketing campaigns.

After exchanging a few words over the phone with the lead receptionist who is in the lobby, Isaac Wen relayed the new message to Javier Zhong respectfully.

“Chairman Zhong, the lady said that she has something you would want to hear. She insisted on meeting you now.”

Still seated in a position that is back-facing Isaac Wen, Javier Zhong’s eyes darted toward the bedroom and he fell into deep thoughts for a few seconds before responding to his secretary.

“I’ll only give her five minutes!” He glanced at his watch briefly before making his way down from the elevated platform to his working desk.

“Understood, Chairman Zhong.”

After which, Isaac Wen immediately conveyed the order back to the lead receptionist. “Send her up. Tell her to make it quick, she only has five minutes!”

“…”

Soon, Javier Zhong heard yet another set of knocking sounds on his door. Just that this time, the knocks carried some kind of seductive rhythm to it.

“??!!…”

Hais… Not again…

This is the reason why he doesn’t like to work with women in general. You never know when you would meet a rotten apple like this…

But thankfully he played it smart this time! It is only because Stephanie Ruan is here that he dared to take the risk and let her up.

Otherwise, on normal occasions, this is totally out of the question!

“Come in!” He ordered coldly.

A woman who is in her early twenties entered the room confidently with a body-hugging red dress that almost fully revealed her chest and bottom area.

Judging by the number of branded items on her from head to toe, one could easily tell that she is also from a wealthy family.

“Hello, Javier! I’m Riley Tang, my dad owns IGF Entertainment! So happy to finally meet you in person!” She extended her hand to him, only to see that it is still pathetically hanging in mid-air.

“What is it that you want to say?” Without even sparing her a glance, Javier Zhong questioned with an authoritative tone while busy typing away on his keyboard.

Seeing that he is still not showing her any signs of interest, Riley Tang refused to give up.

After all, she had spent a great amount of effort persuading her father to let her come and meet the man of her dreams.

She then boldly took a few more steps forward in her six inches stiletto high heels and placed both hands on his desk to steady herself before leaning forward seductively, baring a little more of her chest area.

“Javier… I wanted to ask if you are free for a meal tonight?” While saying this, Riley Tang did not forget to look at him with a flirtatious gaze.

It is also at this moment that Stephanie Ruan walked out of the bedroom and caught this shocking scene.

“??!!…”
