Lai nodded, stroking her back with his right hand, and said gently, "I understand, don't worry."

"Go quickly, I'll wait for you to come back," Kasugano Sora said in a childish voice.

"Ah."

After saying that, he put her on the sofa and ran upstairs to change his clothes.

Chapter 48 Bell

He hurriedly put on a white shirt and trousers, grabbed a black suit jacket, and went downstairs.

Upon seeing this, Kasugano Sora's eyes widened in amazement, and a sense of regret arose within her; she did not want him to leave.

He wore a well-fitting suit with a model-like presence, and with his handsome appearance and slightly taller than his peers, he evoked the image of a domineering prime minister from a novel.

Kasugano Sora became more and more engrossed in watching, her face gradually flushed, and her jade legs involuntarily clamped tightly together.

He walked up to her, patted her head gently, and said softly, "I'll be right back. Stay home and wait for me."

Kasugano Sora was completely captivated by the touch, and images of domineering CEOs and their adorable wives from novels flashed through her mind.

"Okay." Kasugano Sora replied, glancing shyly at his handsome face, and said, "Go ahead, I'll be a good girl at home and wait for you to come back, don't worry."

Seeing how obedient she was, he felt gratified and, as if possessed, lowered his head and kissed her sweet, rosy cheeks.

Lai gave her a gentle kiss and said affectionately, "I'm leaving, Qiong."

After saying that, he walked towards the entrance and put on his black leather shoes.

Kasugano Sora gazed at him intently, her right hand stroking the spot he had just kissed, murmuring, "This is wonderful, this is the life I've always wanted."

"I really want to grow up now and then dedicate myself to you unconditionally."

After saying that, she walked barefoot into the first-floor bathroom.

Lai took a mask from the entryway drawer and covered her face to avoid attracting unwanted attention.

......

Like smoke coffee shop.

This is a small coffee shop, but it has a simple and quiet atmosphere. More importantly, it is right across from the main entrance of Sakura House.

In the coffee shop's private room number one, Lai gazed calmly at the cherry blossoms falling outside the window.

"Mr. Lai, your wet cappuccino."

A male waiter brought over a cup of brown and white coffee with a heart shape and quietly offered a reminder.

Lai snapped out of her reverie about the scenery outside and nodded slightly to the waiter.

I took out my phone and looked at the time displayed on it. The time slowly came to "11:50".

Looking at the time on my phone, I couldn't help but think, "Should I buy a watch? Otherwise, checking the time feels a bit low-class."

Just as he was thinking about buying a watch, the door to the coffee shop was pushed open.

A tall woman, her face completely covered, wearing a yellow shirt and a blue pencil skirt, and carrying a briefcase, walked in.

Seeing this, the doorman stepped forward and respectfully asked, "Madam, do you have an appointment?"

The reserved woman did not rush to respond, but instead scanned each seat with her eyes.

"He has an appointment, his name is Lai." After looking at him for a few seconds, she looked away and said to the doorman.

Upon hearing this, the doorman hurriedly led the way for her, saying, "Madam, please follow me."

The reserved woman clutched her briefcase tightly and followed, her heart pounding faster than ever.

The doorman led her to the number one VIP box.

"Madam, Mr. Lai is inside."

The stern-faced woman nodded slightly, her eyes fixed nervously on the small door, and gently touched it with her right hand.

"Knock knock knock..."

"Enter."

A calm yet magnetic young male voice came from inside.

"Hoo..." The stern-faced woman took a deep breath, regaining her usual strong-woman demeanor, and then pushed open the door and entered.

A handsome young man dressed in a black suit sat upright on the sofa, exuding a cold and aloof aura, while a respectful waiter stood behind him.

Upon seeing his stunning appearance, the stern woman was stunned, her mind reeling.

Is this really Lai Dong?

My chairman is a 17-year-old boy?

Shouldn't this kind of scene happen in romance novels?

Lai glanced at it a few times, then looked away, raised his wet cappuccino, and took a small sip.

The stern-faced woman snapped out of her daze, her ears flushed, and bowed to the young man in front of her.

Then, he closed the door, carefully sat down on the sofa, and kept his head down without moving.

"Madam, here is the menu." The waiter behind the boy respectfully handed over the menu.

The reserved woman glanced casually at the menu and said, "Espresso."

Upon hearing this, Lai thought to himself, "Espresso, huh? This woman must be a very assertive one at work."

Most people drink espresso because its slightly bitter taste can help them stay alert at work, boost their energy, and allow them to better focus on their tasks.

The waiter nodded in understanding and walked lightly out of the private room.

Once the waiter left, the atmosphere in the private room became quiet, making her feel extremely depressed.

Lai put down his coffee, looked her up and down, and said, "I am Lai, the Chairman Lai you mentioned, and the new head of Moonlight Entertainment Company."

After saying that, he handed the inheritance documents on the table to her.

The woman hurriedly removed her mask and hat, revealing her face, which had been hidden for so long, to Lai.

She had a refined and mature face, estimated to be about twenty-six years old, with long, wavy black hair, slightly melancholic blue eyes, and an elegant air of authority.

She has a tall and graceful figure, with a perfectly placed beauty mark at the corner of her mouth.

Seeing this, Lai couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "As expected of the company that netizens call a harem, even just the president alone is amazing."

Bell took a deep breath, regaining her composure, and raised her right hand, smeared with red nail polish, to pick up the documents on the table.

Lai picked up her cappuccino, took a slow sip, and waited quietly for her to finish reading the documents.

A minute slowly passed.

"Knock knock knock..." A soft knocking sound came from outside the door.

Lai called out softly, "Come in."

"Bang." The small door was gently pushed open, and a waiter walked in carrying a cup of brown-white coffee on a tray.

"Madam, your espresso." The waiter placed the coffee on Bell's desk, who was looking at documents.

He then bowed slightly to the two of them, stepped out, and made sure to close the door behind him.

Bell looked up at the young man opposite him, a mixture of surprise and respect on his face, and said, "When I came to Kanagawa, I imagined that Leighton would be a man in his thirties."

"But I never expected that Chairman Lai would be so young and promising."

“Mr. Bei is too kind,” Lai said calmly, glancing at her.

Bell stared at the boy with curiosity, took out four documents from his briefcase, and said, "Chairman Leigh, these are the documents you requested."

She stood up and handed the documents to his desk with both hands, deliberately shaking her chest as she did so.

Lai, with a composed and handsome expression, paid no attention and quietly picked up the document to examine it carefully.

Seeing this, Bell couldn't help but admire him; this was just a small test.

If he's staring intently, then this person is only acquiring the company for women, since the company has countless actresses.

Lai carefully examined the financial documents in his hands, scrutinizing every single word.

Bell propped her chin up, her blue eyes gazing at him silently.

After staring at him for a moment, a smile crept onto his lips. Wanting to tease the earnest young man, he moved his high heels from under the table and touched his leg.

Lai raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "Could this woman be trying to climb the social ladder by resorting to such blatant underhanded tactics?"

Seeing that he didn't react, Bell smiled and stretched out her leg to tease him again, this time without pulling back.

Lai frowned, reached under the table with his right hand, and grabbed her ankle. It felt so soft to the touch.

Bell shuddered, his face flushed, and he tried to pull his foot back, but the boy opposite him was holding on too tightly, and he couldn't pull it out.

Lai held the documents in his left hand, his gaze calm yet mocking, and said, "Mr. Bei, why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?"

Bell suppressed the strange feeling in his body and stammered, "No, it's nothing."

"Lai, Chairman Lai, isn't it hot? I'm so hot."

"Should we turn on the air conditioning? Your face is getting redder and redder." Lai's gaze was teasing, his face showing the concern of a superior for a subordinate.

Chapter 49 You're a Smart Person

"No, no..." Belle shook her head awkwardly, her face flushed.

Seeing that the effect was achieved, Lai loosened her ankle.

Bell hurriedly withdrew his foot, while Blue Eyes dodged around to ease the embarrassment and shyness.

He ignored the woman who wanted to climb the social ladder and started reviewing the personnel, finance, tax, reports, and cooperation project information he had on hand.

Time slowly passed.

Bell's complexion returned to its normal paleness. He rested his chin on his right hand and stared blankly at the serious-looking boy opposite him.

She murmured, "Perfect looks, perfect temperament. If she debuted as a star, she would be a walking aphrodisiac."

"It's a pity that with Lai Dong's family background, he probably looks down on the entertainment industry."

Just as she was admiring the beauty of the face, a bland and emotionless voice came from behind her.

"Mr. Bei, how come February and March combined still resulted in a loss of 100 million?"
