2022-04-18 23:00:39Hearing his unexpected question, Stephanie Ruan subconsciously froze for a second before continuing with the food preparation.
She then looked up at him with a natural smile, "I'm planning to set up a regional office here! Why do you ask?"
Knowing that she had cleverly diverted the main topic, Javier Zhong decided to ask explicitly, "I don't think you came back just to do that. What made you return after so many years?"
"..."
Earlier, he had deliberately asked Isaac Wen to take Mia Xue out of the house just so he could speak to Stephanie Ruan in private.
Being a smart lady that she is, Stephanie Ruan could guess that he must have already caught on to something about her.
But she is unwilling to throw in the towel just like that. "This country is where I grew up in. No matter how near or far I travel to, I'd always find myself wanting to come back."
Well, although this is not the main reason for motivating her to return to Country C, s

In fact, when he heard Stephanie Ruan's response, a 'sweet and sour' feeling overwhelmed his heart. Yes, he is very happy that she had taken the initiative to accompany him to the Zhong's Residence. This way, he has some company and would not be too lonely... Yet at the same time, he knows about her hidden agenda and that she is not going there because of him... "..." After ending the short call with Grandma Zhong, Stephanie Ruan returned the phone to him. "I'll go take a shower first and we can leave the house after that." Nodding his head in agreement, Javier Zhong replied, "Mmm okay, I'll wait for you." Thankfully, he always prepares a set of personal care products with at least two sets of spare clothing in his car. While she was still asleep in the early morning, Javier Zhong had already completed a full-body workout at the apartment's gym before washing up at Stephanie Ruan's place. This is his usual daily morning

Pressured by the many 'honking' sounds from different cars, Stephanie Ruan kept tapping on his arm nervously, "Hey... what are you doing?? Stop joking around...""Just keep driving, can you??""Come on, Javier, please... this is really too embarrassing!""..."A few seconds have passed and Javier Zhong still sees that she is darting her eyes around in an anxious manner.Well, it is not his intention to 'bully' her with such an act, but she had been poking at the wrong spots repeatedly that it has begun to bother him so much!To be honest, nothing else matters more to him right now and he just could not wait to clear this big misunderstanding.However, a part of him is also hesitating if he should be telling her how he feels...I mean, talking to her about this would naturally mean that he is admitting to seeing what he shouldn't have.But it was also not like he had done it on purpose right??...And just when he had decided to speak to her briefly about the incident at her house, Javi

"!!..."The two women stared at each other for a very brief second before Stephanie Ruan heard a familiar voice that quickly came to her rescue! "Darling, you must have been mistaken! My bedroom is over here. That room is my father's."Javier Zhong called out to her from behind, at the exact same time that Victoria Zhong came face to face with Stephanie Ruan.The timing was perfect and the situation appeared to be purely coincidental that was leaving absolutely no room for doubts - at least to Victoria Zhong.Turning around to face Javier Zhong, Stephanie Ruan spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, how forgetful am I!! I think the next time I should just follow you instead so I will not bump into people whom I'm not interested to see."Though she was speaking to him, anyone could tell that the words were directed at Victoria Zhong.Well, she has clearly not forgotten how Victoria Zhong had treated her when she first stepped into this house.With that, Stephanie Ruan casually walked over to

Well, what he said may have worked on other women but definitely not on Stephanie Ruan. She is no ordinary woman.He has to understand the simple rule that if he wants to win her heart, he first got to win her mind.And by the way, there is a reason why Stephanie Ruan is still single until now despite her endless number of suitors...She is not an easy target!But if Javier Zhong ever manages to get her over to his side, he can be assured that she would remain fiercely loyal to him and would be his strongest pillar of strength and support.The keyword here is 'if' he manages to. Right now, sadly, he could only dream about this....Still unconvinced by his words, Stephanie Ruan spoke to him coldly. "Move away.""...""I want to get out. Please move aside." She stared at him and reiterated her message with a slightly stronger tone of voice.Unwilling to make her angrier, Javier Zhong had no choice but to do exactly what she asked. After which, he could only helplessly follow her from b

Stephanie Ruan proceeded to walk to the servant's side and squatted down beside her in the most elegant position.Following that, she gently held on to her injured hand and spoke in a soft voice, "Leave it first. Come with me.""What are you trying to do?!" Unhappy with the situation, Victoria Zhong instantaneously questioned her in an unfriendly tone.Standing up, Stephanie Ruan faced her with a cold smile, "Madam Victoria, this girl here has injured her hand. She will come back after bandaging her wound.""No! I said she will clean up the place right now!" Victoria Zhong immediately lost her cool and raised her voice at her.Retracting her 'friendly' look, Stephanie Ruan now stared at Victoria Zhong indifferently, "That's not a question.""!!..."Well, Victoria Zhong has always been the first lady in the house - after Grandma Zhong of course, and is used to ordering all the servants around.Right now, with the sudden appearance of Stephanie Ruan, anyone could tell that Victoria Zhon

What??!!Did they hear her wrongly??!!It is already one difficult task to let her go up, and they still have to ask their big boss to come down??Not only that!... He also has to personally help her carry this heavy box up to his office??!!No way!!...It is with no doubt that whoever makes this scary phone call would be fired by Isaac Wen immediately!"..."Meanwhile, Stephanie Ruan sat leisurely on one of the sofas nearby and looked through some documents on her tablet while waiting for them to get hold of Javier Zhong.It has been about three days since Stephanie Ruan has met Javier Zhong, and neither has she responded to any of his texts.To be frank, she did not like that his messages were kind of intrusive??By the way, his chain of messages went exactly like this over the past few days...[What are you doing now?][I'll pick you up for dinner?][Busy with your work?][Reply when you see this.]I mean, who is he to her? She really does not see the need to report to him about he

The first thing Stephanie Ruan did when she stepped inside is to close the door shut. And then she simply stood there and watched him from afar.Without raising his head from the document in his hands, Javier Zhong ordered in a loud voice, "Hand over your document!"However, all that he heard in response is the familiar 'clicking' sounds from a pair of high heels."??!!..."Unable to hide his stunned expression, Javier Zhong immediately looked up and saw Stephanie Ruan standing right in front of his desk."Not in a good mood?" She asked him with a slight smile.Refusing to answer her question, he asked her instead, "Why did you come?"With a soft chuckle, Stephanie Ruan turned away and took a good look at the design of his office. She is quickly attracted to a large bookshelf filled with business-related books.Casually sliding her fingers across the books at eye level, she double-tapped on one of the books that had caught her eyes and pulled it out."About your offer the other day, I

Seeing that he had actually left the room to pick her items up at Isaac Wen's desk, Stephanie Ruan secretly let out a smile and her anger is instantly dissolved.Humph! Lucky for him who knows exactly how to coax a woman!In no time, Stephanie Ruan's desk is seated nicely on the empty space in front of the bookshelf, adjacent to his table.She also forgot to mention the extra extension of the office space, featuring a mini kitchen and a considerably large dining area.There is even an enclosed large bedroom at the end of the office with an attached bathroom.With the interior design very compatible with any high-end international 5-star hotel, Stephanie Ruan could definitely foresee herself settling down comfortably in this place very soon."Such a horrible man but at least he has good taste..." She casually strolled around the room and checked out the city view from the large full-length windows.As she returned to the main working area, Javier Zhong is already back at his desk, full

Since he has already spoken so straightforwardly, Stephanie Ruan found it difficult to continue denying it.In front of Javier Zhong, she then raised her left hand elegantly and stared at her empty ring finger."At least a 4 carat diamond ring. Nothing less!" She hinted at him without holding back.Knowing his financial capability, a 4-carat ring should be nothing to him. But well, it is not about the price but rather, she wants to see his sincerity in marrying her."!!!..."As soon as Javier Zhong heard her words, he let out the biggest smile ever and he could hardly contain his joy!!Not to mention 4 carats, as long as she is willing to marry him, getting a 20 carats ring is not even an issue to him!Javier Zhong inched himself forward and quickly threw her a big hug without even caring about the fresh stitches on his wounds.It is almost as though he has completely forgotten that he has two gunshot wounds and he obviously could not feel the pain anymore!"Stephanie, will you really

With a light nod, the surgeon spoke to them politely, "The surgery is successful and Chairman Zhong is okay. There are no complications. He should be awake soon."Phew!!...Both Stephanie Ruan and Isaac Wen instantly breathed a huge sigh of relief!"Thank you, doctor!" She bowed slightly and spoke to him with great appreciation.While the three of them are busy exchanging a few more words, they did not realise that a mysterious man has actually been observing them from afar ever since Javier Zhong entered the operation theatre.The man stood there and gave them a final look before moving away into the shadows....In the private hospital suiteStephanie Ruan sat on the bedside of Javier Zhong and looked at him worriedly, wondering when he would be awake.She held on to his hands and waited...And waited...Suddenly, they heard three steady knocks on the door, and then the room was silent again."I will go and get the door." Isaac Wen immediately stood up and did not forget to report t
Hello Love, Goodbye Billionaire Chapter 48 - He Was Shot!
Perspiration beads are forming on Javier Zhong's face as blood is gushing out uncontrollably from the wounded areas.Shocked by this scene before her eyes, Stephanie Ruan opened her mouth but she could not speak a word!At this point, her hands are shaking non-stop as she struggles to remove her outerwear so that she could use it to tie around his wounded areas to stop the blood from flowing out.Thankfully for him, the two gunshots are very close to each other and one jacket is enough to apply pressure on both wounds."Can you try to get up??" Stephanie Ruan asked worriedly while putting one of his arms over her shoulder as she tries to figure out the best way to help him to a standing position.The two of them struggled for a while before successfully getting up together."Be careful. I'm not sure if he has left this place yet." Stephanie Ruan warned Javier Zhong in a soft voice as they took slow steps toward the door.With his current state, they better not run into 'X' again.

Hello Love, Goodbye Billionaire Chapter 47 - Suspicious Building
Since everyone is very focused on this operation and their eyes are only locked on 'X's cabin house, no one noticed Stephanie Ruan sliding into the forest to tail Javier Zhong. As the pathway inside the forested area is very narrow and difficult to see - especially more so at the night, Stephanie Ruan is unable to manoeuvre comfortably. Each and every single step that she takes would require her fullest attention. She has to remain very vigilant of her surroundings because if she doesn't... "Hiss..." A tree branch that is protruding out into the pathway has scratched her lower arm. Without hesitating, she moved her phone's torchlight over her arm to check on the wound. "Thankfully it's not a deep cut..." She breathed a sigh of relief and quickly looked ahead again, only to find that Javier Zhong's figure is already out of her sight! "No way...!!!" Stephanie Ruan took a few steps forward and looked around anxiously for him but to no avail. It has already been about ten minutes of

Knowing there is a possibility that 'X' might have sensed that they are coming for him, the situation is now even more uncertain and dangerous than before!Javier Zhong has no choice but to hide from Stephanie Ruan about their updated operation plan.Because if she were to come along and something happened to her, he would never be able to forgive himself!And so, it is a better idea to keep her at the hotel. This would also give him a peace of mind.However, when Stephanie Ruan heard his perfunctory response, she could not pinpoint what was wrong with it...She just has this strange feeling that something is not very right...Though Stephanie Ruan agreed with him on the outside, she still has her own suspicions in her heart which kept coming back to her mind throughout the entire meal....At the Presidential Suite, Stephanie Ruan stepped out of the bathroom in a white robe. With her hair still wet, she took a towel to dry it while returning to her room.Meanwhile, Javier Zhong, who

Upon hearing that, Stephanie Ruan's expression immediately darkened. "Javier, you agreed to give me some time!""I did! Is 10 hours not enough? That is already quite some time..."Stephanie Ruan could not believe her ears and is completely speechless!Wait... what did he just say?!... 10 hours??!!Other people count by the days and weeks, but this man actually dared to count by the hours and act so righteously??..."Forget it... Take this back!" Stephanie Ruan pushed the bouquet back into his arms angrily. She does not want to take anything from him!This action of hers made Javier Zhong enter into panic mode. He forced the flowers back into her arms and anxiously held on to her hands, "Stephanie, don't do this... I'm sorry, I was just joking. I will give you time."Seeing that she has calmed down a little, he slowly added with a pleading look, "But don't make me wait for too long okay? I'm really getting impatient...""..."In the centre of the large bouquet laid an exquisite royal b

"??!!..."Stunned by the sudden turn of events, Javier Zhong's heart started pounding very quickly.You mean... she has agreed to share a room with him??And so... he gets to spend the night with her??Right at this point, it could be said that his mind went completely blank for a few seconds due to the excitement that is overwhelming him.Seeing that Stephanie Ruan had taken their keycard from the receptionist and is already walking toward the lift lobby, Javier Zhong hurriedly picked up his pace and followed after her.Needless to say, his mood has also improved drastically!But just before he could try to grab hold of Stephanie Ruan's hand again, her stern warning entered his ears."Don't you dare try to do anything funny tonight!""??..."What?... Has he even done anything wrong to her before??Not only did he innocently get an earful from her for no particular reason, but the current atmosphere also does not feel right for him to hold her hand as well.What a downer for his self-

Come on... How is she going to face all these people now...Stephanie Ruan is someone who respects other people's time and she definitely does not want to be seen as an entitled person who thinks that the whole world only revolves around her.This is totally not right!!...Absolutely embarrassing for her!!On the other hand, Javier Zhong found her frustration to be very amusing!With a chuckle, he grabbed hold of the small hand that is 'attacking' him and then directly planted a kiss on her forehead.Startled by the unexpected kiss, Stephanie Ruan immediately placed her fingers on the part of her head that his lips had touched."??!..."Seeing that she is still in a daze, Javier Zhong did not want to give her time to process what had just happened.He knew that she would definitely make some 'noise' about it!As such, he reacted quickly by helping Stephanie Ruan carry her handbag in one hand while holding onto her hand with the other."Let's go." Pretending that nothing had happened,

She instantly broke into an embarrassed smile and whispered into the phone, "Mia, I'm just going on a vacation. I'll be back in a few days.""No, Director Ruan! You cannot go with him! What if he takes advantage of you during the trip? And you are in a foreign place, how are you going to call for help?!..."As Mia Xue is still blabbering on and on, Stephanie Ruan hurriedly reached for the button to decrease her phone's volume so that Javier Zhong could no longer eavesdrop on their call.Who knows how terrible his expression is right now!She really does not dare to turn her head to look at him anymore..."It's okay, I'll be fine! Don't worry about me, okay? I'm hanging up now... bye!"With that, Stephanie Ruan quickly ended the call to save herself from this awkward situation."This girl... she tends to over-worry about things sometimes..." After which, Stephanie Ruan gave him a stiff chuckle and then pretended to admire the scenery outside the window.On the other hand, Javier Zhong
