After Qiao Nuo entered the conference room, A Shan thoughtfully closed the door. She pointed to the entrance and then glanced at Jin Chengyan, puzzled about what had just happened.
"Where's Wang Jue? Did she go to get eye drops?" Qiao Nuo placed a cup of green tea in front of Jin Chengyan. Her father used to enjoy tea as well, and Qiao Nuo was skilled at brewing it. However, the company’s tea set was rather simple, so she could only manage a rough brew.
Jin Chengyan picked up the cup and inhaled the aroma of the tea. Although it wasn't high-quality, it still had a pleasant scent.
He took a small sip; Qiao Nuo's brewing was quite decent.
"What do you think of that person from earlier?" Jin Chengyan leaned back against the conference table, showcasing his perfect physique.
Qiao Nuo certainly knew what kind of body lay beneath that suit—his toned waist without an ounce of excess fat, broad shoulders tapering down to a narrow waist, and… that area…
As she thought about this, her face flushed. Where was her mind wandering off to?
She felt increasingly shameless; how could she think of so many images just by looking at Jin Chengyan? It was simply hopeless.
Meanwhile, Jin Chengyan observed the rapid changes in Qiao Nuo's expression, unsure of what thoughts were racing through her mind.
"Wang Jue… she's attractive and articulate; she's quite good at sales," Qiao Nuo replied, reflecting on what she had seen over the past few days.
Of course, she didn’t rule out the possibility that Wang Jue might have used some unscrupulous methods to secure sales orders.
"I meant to ask you—if you were a man, would you like a woman like that?"
Qiao Nuo suddenly realized that she and Jin Chengyan were standing quite close to each other. If he moved just a little closer, she would be able to smell his pleasant scent. It seemed he was intentionally leaning in her direction.
“Um... you have looks and a good physique... you’re not actually interested in her, are you?” Qiao Nuo finally reacted, her bright eyes wide with surprise as she looked at Jin Chengyan.
This man had only glanced at Wang Jue a few times, and now he was interested?
Moreover, compared to Ruan Shengyu, Wang Jue was on a completely different level. What was Jin Chengyan thinking?
Clearly, Jin Chengyan was taken aback by Qiao Nuo’s words. He seemed annoyed as he turned and pressed her between himself and the table, leaning in closer.
“You’re much more my type than that woman,” he said, his gaze openly scanning Qiao Nuo.
The way he looked at her was as if he wanted to devour her whole.
With a thud, Qiao Nuo heard the rapid beating of her own heart.
He was joking, right?
But as she saw his face moving closer, it felt like in the next moment, their faces would touch—her lips would meet his.
Jin Chengyan was a man with undeniable masculinity; just a hint of his charm could leave anyone spellbound. This sudden closeness made Qiao Nuo’s mind go blank.
“I...” I don’t like you like this...
Qiao Nuo wanted to express her thoughts, but as soon as she uttered the word "I," her tongue got tied.
Her expression, so vulnerable and adorable, was truly captivating.
Jin Chengyan pinched Qiao Nuo's cheek and stepped back, allowing her to stand properly. The closeness they had just shared made Qiao Nuo's cheeks flush with warmth.
"Qiao Nuo, you are just so adorably innocent." The obvious teasing made Qiao Nuo blush even more, which brightened Jin Chengyan's mood immensely.
His cheerful voice echoed in the conference room.
It was then that Qiao Nuo realized she had been played by Jin Chengyan. Her face turned red with anger, and without considering his status, she playfully punched him in the chest.
The force was light, resembling more of a pout than an actual strike.
Jin Chengyan swiftly caught Qiao Nuo's hand.
