"What?" Zhang Liling was still in a confused state when she got pushed down to the bed.
"Have you considered my business proposal?" Fang Bingwen asked, giving her a serious gaze.
Instantly the fire Zhang Liling felt burning in her lower belly, was extinguished.
"I didn't have time for that." She grumbled.
Giving by her facial expression, Zhang Liling would have gotten off Fang Bingwen's thighs by herself if he did not push her away.
"Good. You can think about it now." Mr. Fang said as he went over her to pick up his laptop before returning to his original position.
"Mr. Fang, I really do not want to partner with any one." She replied without looking at him
She wanted to be the sole owner of her brand Glint. She wanted to grow it on her own.
"Fine then. Let me get busy with finding some promising companies to invest in as I have a lot of money laying in waste at the moment."
Saying that, Fang Bingwen clicked away on his laptop. And that was how the heat Zhang Liling was feeling, instantly calmed down.
On the other hand, the internet was still lit after Zhang Liling set it on and disappeared.
From the photos she uploaded, a good number of people found out her location.
They also discovered whose private jet Zhang Liling and Fang Bingwen journeyed in as Jia Li and Fu Hua had snapped and uploaded a photo in that same spot before.
Everyone got curious and began to ask who the owner of the private jet was. Some also started to ask questions to understand how the Fu's and Fang's were related, and if they had known each other for a long time.
Fans of Jia Li were not left out on this matter as they wanted to know her relationship with Jia Li and how they became that close.
A few people could already guess the answer to that question by saying that Mr. Fang was wealthy and influential, and if he wanted to meet anyone, he could.
Slowly, everyone started to accept that, but when Jia Li's replied to Zhang Liling's post under her comment section, people went crazy.
Just a simple statement from Jia Li was powerful enough to cause that commotion.
'It was nice meeting you, Liling.'
She had called Zhang Liling so informally as if they were close, and nit just that, she had added a smiley face with heart eyes to her statement.
This was enough for phones to catch fire, and people's heads to explode.
Then when Fu Hua came under Jia Li's comment to reply, 'Sweetheart, please come back to me' hearts literally melted.
Even Zhang Liling who had gotten a notification of her idol's response to her post, quickly dropped her grievances and jumped online to sail the ship.
Soon, she forgave Fang Bingwen of all his trespasses as she became immersed in the sudden trending news online.

The next day as scheduled, Jia Li and Fu Hua gaze Zhang Liling and Mr. Fang a tour in FJ.
Stepping out of the large closet area after viewing someone of FJ's previous collections, Zhang Liling who was walking ahead with Jia Li by her side couldn't help but to reveal her surprise about an important matter.
"I still can't believe you are not FJ's Executive creative director."
"I am not the only talented person here. There are other people who know a lot more than I do. They are also more gifted than I am."
Smiling to her, she continued, "Also, talent is enough for me to be at the top. In FJ, things are different. Also, I don't need to be the head of the creative department for my arts to not be seen."
Zhang Liling learned something huge from this one. One didn't need to get titles before they can stand out.
And also, you don't need titles after you have stood out. If you get it, fine. But if you don't, it's still fine.
Zhang Liling was thinking that as the wife of the CEO of FJ Styles, she would be made the creative director, even given the facts that she had the records to back the position up if people began to talk sideways.
But here, her mentality expanded, and she began to get a different perspective of how things were done.
Truly, this was how things should be.
Zhang Liling was more than thankful for today's tour as it made her more wiser.
After the tour ended, Zhang Liling invited them to dinner at their home that evening.
"Mr. Fang, I would like you and Liling to pay us a visit tonight as I would like to prepare dinner for you."
Hearing that he Idol was going to trouble herself in the kitchen after finishing from work there just because of them, Zhang Liling hurriedly rejected the idea even though she liked it.
Who wouldn't like such treatment from their Idol? That was a sign to show how close your Idol took you to their heart.
The sound of it looked blissful, but Zhang Liling wouldn't want to stress Jia Li.
"There is really no need to take your time. We have already done that for 2 days in a row."
"Hahaha..." Jia Li let out a small laugh. "Did you see the gift you packed for us? I must show some appreciation to your kind gestures."
This time around, Fang Bingwen really wanted to reject her, but Fu Hua intervened.
"My wife is determined to cook for you, you shouldn't reject her."
Staring at the man on whose turf he was standing in, Fang Bingwen was speechless. Why was he making seem like no one was permitted to reject his wife's kind gesture?
Fortunately, Jia Li explained the reason she insisted on them coming home for dinner.
"You need to see the children you bought a lot of things for plus, I have something you would like hear."
Saying that second part, Jia Li winked at Zhang Liling, leaving the latter in a riled up state.
Even when they returned to their hotel room, Zhang Liling couldn't stay still. She kept walking back and forth asking Fang Bingwen a question he didn't have the answer to.
Seeing her walking through and fro from one point of the room to the order, Fang Bingwen could no longer stand it.
Closing his laptop, he said to her, "Can you stop walking about, you are making me dizzy."
Slowing down in her steps, Zhang Liling asked, "I thought you were working, how come you were watching me?"
If he didn't like the brain storming she was doing, he could very well fix his gaze on his laptop screen.
"Go to your room, don't come here to distract me." Fang Bingwen said and opened his laptop to continue working.
If she wanted to be pacing up and down, there is a way she could do it without distracting him. What was her bedroom for?
"What do you think she wants to tell me?" Zhang Liling asked as she stopped in front of him with her hands on her waist.
She refused to go to her bedroom. She would even be more crazy if she was by herself thinking about what her idol had in stuck for her.
"Zhang Liling," Fang Bingwen called out as he shut his eyes and opened them up again the next second.
"In six hours, you will find out."
***
Six hours later...
Fang Bingwen and Zhang Liling were driven into the private estate where Fu Hua's villa was located.
Soon, the black car parked in front of the white villa as the butler and two maids bowed before opening the car door for them.
"Good evening Mr. Fang and Ms. Zhang, welcome to Mr. Fu's villa. I am the butler, please come with me."
Taking Zhang Liling's hand in his, Fang Bingwen immediately followed after the butler to enter into the house as the maids followed behind them.
Showing then to the sitting room, the butler left and returned a minute later to serve them some wine.
Just then, Fu Hua came into their line of sight to greet them with a happy smile.
"Thank you for coming, Bingwen." Shaking his hand, he spread the other arm to give him a brotherly hug from the side.
"Thank you for inviting us to your home." Fang Bingwen said in response as he returned the hug.
Moving over to the little woman whose gaze was wandering about in search of a certain someone, Fu Hua swallowed his laughter and called her attention.
"Thank you for coming over Ms. Zhang. Jia Li will be here shortly, she is taking a shower."
"Oh!" Zhang Liling mouthed before taking her seat next to Fang Bingwen.
'She is taking a shower? Is he also coming from the bedroom?'
Inside her head, Zhang Liling couldn't help but to think of silky things, but soon her naughty thoughts were rumpled and thrown away after Jia Li stepped out to explain herself.
"I'm sorry for taking some time. After cooking, I was sweating and smelling like food. That wouldn't have been a pleasant scent, so I quickly rushed into the room to freshen up a bit."
