Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more!-Chapter 287 - 196: Kissing Zhou Yuyan? The Promise with the Little Green Tea

Increased favorability by another 10 points!

Wu Wei felt overjoyed inside!

The favorability suddenly jumped from 59 points to 69 points!

This not only meant that Zhou Yuyan was moved by him, but it was also just one step away from "like."

Wu Wei couldn't help but feel a surge of uncontrollable excitement inside.

He looked at Zhou Yuyan in front of him with both eyes.

At this moment, her fair cheeks were flushed with an enchanting blush, resembling a ripe apple, incredibly tempting.

A pair of beautiful eyes were staring at him unblinkingly, filled with undisguised emotion and admiration, and a hint of heartache and daze that she might not even have noticed. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

The atmosphere quietly changed in silence, as if the air was filled with invisible catalysts, gradually heating up, becoming viscous.

Wu Wei looked at her red lips close at hand, his Adam's apple involuntarily sliding up and down, feeling a bit restless.

Earlier, he wanted to kiss her, but felt it wasn't the right time, so he held back hard.

But now?

The favorability is already 69 points, just a step away from "like."

This... should be okay, right?

Once this thought arose, it spread like wildfire, impossible to suppress.

So, Wu Wei didn't hesitate, his body following his heart and instinct, slowly leaning forward.

The distance between the two gradually decreased in silence...

Zhou Yuyan obviously realized what was happening.

Her pupils slightly enlarged in an instant, her heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, then it pounded wildly, the "thump thump thump" sound was so loud it seemed to hurt her eardrums, as if it was about to jump out of her throat the next second.

Is Brother-in-law going to... kiss me?

Could he... like me?

This thought made a surge of secret joy rise in her heart, but what followed immediately was great panic and confusion.

Her mind was blank, but her body reacted before her consciousness could.

Just when their lips were only a few centimeters apart, Wu Wei could even feel her warm breath—

Zhou Yuyan seemed to suddenly wake up from a dream, turning her head abruptly to avoid the imminent contact.

"B-Brother-in-law!"

Her voice was trembling noticeably, her cheeks were so red they seemed about to bleed, she didn't dare look at Wu Wei: "Um... I'll... go check if that table of guests has left!"

With that, she immediately turned around and rushed out of the office as if escaping.

"Bang."

The door was gently closed, blocking out the faint sound of her hurried footsteps outside.

Wu Wei maintained a slightly forward posture, paused for two seconds, but instead of feeling disappointed, a faint smile appeared on his face.

Since she was already moved, some things were just a matter of time.

If he rushed now, he might scare her, and even make the recently soared favorability drop back down.

Just take it slow.

After all... she was already the fish in his net, she won't escape.

Wu Wei sat down in the chair in a good mood, his gaze falling on the computer on the desk.

He hadn't worked seriously for a long time, so he planned to use this afternoon to properly plan the next developments.

After all, as a boss, he couldn't really just be a hands-off manager and do nothing.

He brought up the store's recent detailed operation data files and some important records made by Zhou Yuyan, and began to further understand his first business venture.

Then, he created a new document, incorporating the business management knowledge he had absorbed through the system's [Professional Knowledge Card], along with the specifics of the hotpot restaurant, to begin sketching the framework plan for a future chain restaurant company.

From supply chain management systems, standardized operating procedures (SOP), central kitchen construction, to brand image design, site selection models, chain store management chapters...

The vast information was sorted out in his mind, methodically turned into words and preliminary plans.

He became engrossed in it.

Eventually, as the sky outside darkened, and the time on the computer's bottom right corner jumped to five in the afternoon, he finally stopped.

And during this time, Zhou Yuyan hadn't come back in even once.

It seems the "shock" was significant, needing some time to process.

Wu Wei saved the document and stretched lazily.

Sitting for too long made his body feel a bit stiff.

These days in Chuandu, apart from a lot of "indoor exercise" with Han Kexin, and a brief encounter with basketball that day, he hadn't exercised properly, and had gained several pounds.

It was time to get moving.

Wu Wei thought as he planned to go sweat it out at the gym.

Just then, Zhou Yujie sent a WeChat message.

Zhou Yujie: [Will you be coming back for dinner tonight?]

Wu Wei: [No, I'm going to the gym for a while, and will eat outside after]

Zhou Yujie: [Okay, then I won't prepare your share]

...

After chatting with Zhou Yujie for a few moments, Wu Wei got up and left the office.

Looking around the downstairs lobby, almost all the seats were filled.

Business in the evening was indeed very good.

He looked around and finally spotted Zhou Yuyan in a corner, gesturing to her with a wave that he was leaving.

Seeing Wu Wei wave at her, Zhou Yuyan's heart tightened, and she was ready to turn around, pretending not to see.

But the next second, her movement stopped, and she nodded towards Wu Wei.

Watching Wu Wei walk out of the hotpot restaurant, she walked to the window, only retracting her gaze when his tall and lean figure got into the Panamera outside.
