Zuo An turned and stared back into her eyes before he replied, “The guests have already arrived.”

“Arrived?” Xu Weilai mused.

She subconsciously scanned the empty private room with her jet black eyes again and blinked twice. “Arrived? Where are they? Could it be that his guests are… Ahem… Invisible spirits?” she thought.

Perhaps because her reaction was too adorable, Zuo An erupted into laughter and replied in good humor, “You are the guest.”

Xu Weilai pursed her lips. Her boss was much more cunning than she had imagined and had once again abused his authority for personal gains.

“You didn’t manage to have a enjoy yourself during our last meal because of me so I wanted to make it up to you.”

As Zuo An spoke, he a step forward and made his way to the center of the private room where a long dining table was. He then pulled out a chair on one side of the table before he glanced over at Xu Weilai and continued, “Are you willing to give me a chance to treat you to another meal?”

Even though he had tricked her into coming to the private room with him, he wasn’t aggressive and even sought her opinion gently.

Xu Weilai felt that he probably wouldn’t even be angry with her if she were to reject him now and leave. In fact, he would likely respect her decision.

She felt like she got to know him even better now.

Although he appeared humble, gentlemanly and mild-mannered, there was still a cold and aloof side to him. He could also be terrifying and ruthless, weak and frail or even scheming and cunning.

Xu Weilai’s lips curled up into a smile and she replied, “I’d be more than happy to accept your offer.”

She then strutted over and sat down on the chair that he had pulled out for her.

Zuo An’s smile broadened as he made his way to the other side of the table and pulled out a chair to take a seat.

There was a candlestick displayed in the middle of the long table and the candles were already lit up. As Xu Weilai stared at the flickering candlelights which were giving off a faint yellow glow that was reflected in her eyes, the words ‘candlelight dinner’ inevitably popped up in her mind.

This term made the entire situation appear rather suggestive.

While Zuo An said he was only trying to make up to her for the previous meal, but he had artfully arranged for a candlelight dinner whereby he could either take things forward or take a step back.

Xu Weilai couldn’t help but wonder if he was using his style of dealing with business in his romance or if he was simply an experienced playboy.

Xu Weilai subconsciously blurted out her thoughts as soon as it formed in her mind and, by the time she realized it, it was already too late to retract her words.

Zuo An was initially stunned by her words, but he quickly grinned and replied without thinking, “No.”

“No?”

Zuo An paused for a moment before he continued, “I’m inexperienced.”

As if he was afraid that she couldn’t understand him, he elaborated, “I’ve been very busy throughout these years so I don’t have the time or the mood.”

Xu Weilai was actually uninterested in his past relationships and was only making a casual remark. She had felt awkward when he heard her think out loud, but was surprised that he seemed unbothered and was even trying to explain to her in detail.

Unsure of how to respond, Xu Weilai flashed him an embarrassed, polite smile and attempted to brush it off, “I see…”

She had previously guessed that it was likely that he had never dated someone before and now, he had affirmed her conjecture.

Xu Weilai was unsure of her boss’ age but figured that he was probably around her age. She had already dated, married and even divorced someone and yet he had never even been in a relationship before.

“So, you are the first girl whom I have a crush on.”

Xu Weilai had just picked up a glass of water and taken a sip when she heard what Zuo An said and she instantly choked on her drink.
