Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"Wow, Zhan-gege recognized me right away!"

"My aunt said you didn't recognize me. After all, we haven't seen each other for ten whole years. I missed you so much!"

As Lin Ruoxi spoke, she walked straight up to Xiao Zhan, grabbed his arm, and said coquettishly, "Brother Zhan, I couldn't sleep because I missed you so much. You're finally back."

The aunt Lin Ruoxi mentioned is Xiao Zhan's mother, Lin Wanrong.

When Xiao Zhan heard Lin Ruoxi call him "Brother Zhan," he instantly got goosebumps and frowned, saying, "Cousin, I remember you're three years older than me. Why are you calling me 'brother'?"

Lin Ruoxi hugged Xiao Zhan's arm and nuzzled against her ample bosom, saying in a coquettish voice, "Oh dear, that's the new way to address someone these days. You've been in the army for so long that you're a bit out of touch with society."

"Brother Zhan, am I pretty? Do I have a good figure?"

"Wow, Zhan-gege's CEO office is huge!"

Xiao Zhan was speechless. He felt nauseous just thinking about the anonymous video he received last night.

Xiao Zhan stood up and, without any tenderness, pried open Lin Ruoxi's delicate, white hand that was tightly gripping his arm, then walked to the sofa area and sat down.

Then, looking at Lin Ruoxi with a cold gaze, he said, "Cousin, please sit here. It's spacious here."

"Oh, by the way, did you come to see me for something?"

Seeing Xiao Zhan's attitude towards her, Lin Ruoxi's peach blossom eyes flashed with a barely perceptible fierceness. She then swayed her sexy waist and walked over to Xiao Zhan, sitting down close to him...

Xiao Zhan subconsciously moved to the side and said, "Cousin, we're both adults. It's better to keep some distance. If a man and a woman are too intimate, people will gossip."

Lin Ruoxi smiled charmingly and said, "Brother Zhan, I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of? I'll be yours sooner or later. Besides, we're having our engagement ceremony tonight, and we'll be husband and wife from now on. My aunt wants me to move in with you tonight! She wants to have a grandson soon!"

"Brother Zhan, I heard there are no female soldiers in your special forces unit. Don't you miss women after ten years of service?"

As Lin Ruoxi spoke, she leaned closer to Xiao Zhan again...

Xiao Zhan was immediately filled with black lines and extremely embarrassed...

He moved aside to keep a certain distance from Lin Ruoxi.

"Cough, cough!"

Xiao Zhan coughed a few times, then picked up a cigarette from the coffee table, lit it, took a drag, and said leisurely, "Cousin, how could we, relatives, possibly get married? Besides, marriage is a matter between two people. How can two people live together without a foundation of love? And, such a big thing as an engagement, how come I, the person involved, didn't know about it!"

Lin Ruoxi's expression froze for a moment before she said, "Didn't your aunt tell you? That's strange. Your aunt and my dad had already discussed it. As the saying goes, marriage is a major event, and parents decide on it and matchmakers make it happen. I've liked you since I was little, and I swore to myself when I was old enough to understand that I would marry no one but you. You may not know about blood relations, but I have no blood relation to you. I was adopted by my dad from an orphanage."

"So, there's no problem with us getting married."

"People always say that sex should come first, then love; feelings can be cultivated gradually!"

Xiao Zhan was genuinely unaware that Lin Ruoxi was a child his uncle had adopted from an orphanage, so he asked in surprise, "You're an adopted child?"

"You're not lying to me, are you?"

Lin Ruoxi stood up and sat directly on Xiao Zhan's lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. She whispered in his ear, "Brother Zhan, I would lie to any man in the world, but I would never lie to you, because you are my Prince Charming. From the moment I first saw you when I was three years old, I fell deeply in love with you."

"My heart has remained unchanged all these years."

"Brother Zhan, I love you."

As Lin Ruoxi spoke, she pressed her sexy, fiery red lips onto Xiao Zhan's thin, icy lips.

Lin Ruoxi's proactive approach had never failed. As the saying goes, "For a man to pursue a woman is like climbing a mountain, but for a woman to pursue a man is like piercing a thin veil," especially since Lin Ruoxi was such a stunning beauty, the dream girl of countless men, someone they could only pursue but never obtain…

Xiao Zhan was momentarily stunned...

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi sat directly on his lap and said shyly, "Brother Zhan, from now on I am yours."

After a brief moment of confusion, Xiao Zhan...

He reacted immediately, first jerking his head to avoid Lin Ruoxi's tongue, then shoving Lin Ruoxi away so she would fall onto the leather sofa.

Lin Ruoxi thought it was a sure thing, but Xiao Zhan suddenly flipped her onto the sofa, letting out a soft cry: "Ouch, Brother Zhan, you're hurting me."

Xiao Zhan said angrily, "Cousin, please have some self-respect."

"brush!"

Lin Ruoxi burst into tears, sobbing softly, "Brother Zhan, I've remained chaste for you, hoping you'd come back and we could be reunited, but you're so heartless to me."

"Mmm...mmm..."

Lin Ruoxi cried with tears streaming down her face, looking beautiful and charming, making people feel sorry for her.

But Xiao Zhan already knew what kind of person Lin Ruoxi was, so he remained unmoved and said, "You've remained chaste for me?"

Are you telling a fairy tale?

Lin Ruoxi's body trembled slightly before she said, "Of course, no other man is even one ten-thousandth as good as Brother Zhan in my eyes. I've said that I'm yours in life and in death."

"If you don't believe me, we can check the goods now and see if they are genuine."

Xiao Zhan truly experienced Lin Ruoxi's shrewishness and shamelessness; she could spout lies so easily...

suddenly,

"Knock knock knock!"

Xia Keke knocked three times before pushing the door open and entering. She first glanced at Lin Ruoxi, who was reclining on the sofa with her clothes disheveled, and then said to Xiao Zhan, "President, it's time for us to leave."

Xiao Zhan stood up and said, "Okay!"

Then, looking at Lin Ruoxi, he said calmly, "Cousin, we're not a good match. Let's cancel the engagement ceremony."

He paused and then said, "I won't be attending any engagement ceremony. I think you know the reason best. Some things are not good for anyone if they are said out loud. After all, we are relatives. As the saying goes, people need face, trees need bark, and telephone poles need cement. Leave a way out for others so you can meet again in the future."

After speaking, Xiao Zhan turned around and strode out of the office with an air of indifference.

Xia Keke glanced at Lin Ruoxi, whose face was flushed red with shame and indignation, and said indifferently, "Ms. Lin, the president is out on business. Please make yourself at home."

After saying that, she made a graceful turn, her high heels clicking as she followed Xiao Zhan out of the office.

As Xia Keke walked, she thought to herself, "As expected of a former special forces soldier, the president is decisive and ruthless in his words and deeds. This young man has a bright future ahead of him. No wonder the chairman entrusted him with the management of the group. It seems that the group's development is just around the corner."

Lin Ruoxi never expected Xiao Zhan to treat her like this.

Her attempt to seduce him failed.

This was the first time in her history that she had suffered such a crushing and utter defeat.

Lin Ruoxi even began to doubt her own abilities.

Lin Ruoxi stood up from the sofa, straightened her dress, and looked up at the large office, a cold glint in her eyes. She muttered to herself, "Xiao Zhan, I will not admit defeat. You are the man I, Lin Ruoxi, have chosen. No one can take you away from me. Otherwise, I will fight them to the death!"
