Hello Love, Goodbye Billionaire

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 had obviously heard the contents of their call.

How dare this little assistant badmouth him in front of Stephanie Ruan??!!

Is she trying to sow discord between the two of them?!…

He took so much effort to pull Stephanie Ruan to his side and this assistant just brainlessly tarnished his reputation?!

No way!!… He definitely has to try to regain his ‘good’ image again!

Anyway, who cares about what the rest of the world thinks about him??…

As long as Stephanie Ruan has a good impression of him and he is able to successfully win her over to his side, that’s all that matters!

Basically, the whole world can hate him but she has to like him!

“It’s alright, it’s good to have such a caring assistant.” Javier Zhong could not bring himself to give Mia Xue any more ‘fake’ praises.

Although this remark sounds nice on the outside, only those who truly know him personally would be able to read between the lines.

Indeed, it is extremely difficult for him to play as a ‘saint’ when he is clearly not one…

Mia Xue better be careful and watch her steps from now onwards!

Just be prepared for the day that Javier Zhong would strike back at her ten times harder than what she had done to him today!

Yes, he is a vengeful man!

…

Oblivious to the dangerous situation that she is suddenly pushed into, Mia Xue hurriedly dialled Daniel Yan’s number.

Since she cannot stop her boss from going on this trip, she has to prepare a ‘Plan B’ to ensure Stephanie Ruan’s safety.

Knowing that Daniel Yan is a close friend of Stephanie Ruan, he must be the most reliable person to help her!

Furthermore, he is also from a powerful family – having resources and strong connections.

“Mr. Yan! I need your help urgently! Director Ruan is flying to Ping Xi Island with Chairman Zhong soon.”

“I’m worried about her safety. Can you send some men to watch out for her over there?” She asked him with a panicky voice.

“Mia, can you say who she is going with again?” Daniel Yan wanted to re-confirm what he had heard from her.

“Chairman Zhong! She is in the car with Chairman Zhong now!”

“…”

Javier??… Stephanie??…

To Ping Xi Island??…

Daniel Yan pondered for a few moments before responding to her, “Alright, got it!”

…

As soon as the car arrived at the airport, they were immediately ushered to the private boarding area.

In no time, Stephanie Ruan is sitting inside Javier Zhong’s huge private plane, together with Isaac Wen and a large group of bodyguards behind them.

To be honest, she has never been put in a ‘constrained space’ with so many males before!

The current atmosphere feels a little too oppressive for her, as though she is stuck in an ‘army camp’, waiting to go for a war.

“Good evening Madam, what can I get for you today?” The male flight attendant asked her politely.

Since this group of flight attendants only work for Javier Zhong, they did not have to ask him as they are already aware of his usual order on the flight.

“Just a cup of hot tea will do, thank you!” Stephanie Ruan responded to him with a courteous smile.

Well, even the flight attendants are all males… and there is not a single female soul on this plane!

Could you even believe this?!

Is there something wrong with this person??NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Is this even normal??…

Stephanie Ruan threw Javier Zhong a sideways glance while thinking to herself, “Hais… thankfully I’m not his enemy! Otherwise, I will feel like I’m being held hostage by him right now…”

To be honest, this entire plane is totally nothing but a hazard for any woman!

I mean, how is she supposed to physically defend herself if the need arises??

To fight with just five able-bodied bodyguards alone would already be a huge nightmare!

And there are about 60 men in total on this plane…

In fact, if she were to randomly throw Javier Zhong a punch right now, Stephanie Ruan could guarantee that she would be sent home dead!

“…”

Unaware of what she is thinking about, Javier Zhong spoke to her with a soft voice that sounded almost like a whisper. “You can take a short nap if you want. We will reach in about one and a half hours.”

“Mm okay!” She gave him two light nods before closing her eyes to rest. Already feeling tired, Stephanie Ruan did not hold back and fell asleep very quickly.

…

The time passed with a blink of an eye and the plane touched down at Ping Xi Island’s airport.

“Chairman Zhong…” Isaac Wen wanted to inform his boss that they have arrived but he instantly saw Javier Zhong putting one finger on his lips to silence him.

It did not take Isaac Wen long to understand what is going on…

Seeing Stephanie Ruan’s head resting comfortably on his left shoulder, Javier Zhong could not bear to wake her up.

He even meticulously pulled up her blanket and ensured that it is covering her shoulder… just in case she is feeling cold.

Javier Zhong then carefully tucked her loose fringe behind her ear and used his thumb to gently rub on the side of her face.

Needless to say, everyone on board continued to sit quietly for another hour or so before Stephanie Ruan finally opens her eyes.

“You’re awake?” Javier Zhong looked at her and dotingly rubbed his thumb on her temple once again.

Still in a daze, Stephanie Ruan casually responded to him and did not move the position of her head on his shoulder, “Hmm…”

“You can continue to rest first. We are not in a hurry.” He slowly added.

“…”

“Not in a hurry??…” Isaac Wen overheard what Javier Zhong had said to her and gulped down his saliva.

True enough, only the insanely rich and powerful men could spoil their women like this… making more than a hundred staff wait for his woman to finish taking her nap…

But Javier Zhong’s words soon got to her mind and when it became clearer, Stephanie Ruan immediately pushed herself up from him.

“We can’t leave yet?” She looked out of the window and noticed that the plane is already parked at its designated lot.

“We can, whenever you are ready.” He leaned closer to her face with a soft smile.

“Whenever I’m ready??” Confused by what this man is saying, Stephanie Ruan looked at the time on her phone and…

“??!!…”

“You didn’t wake me up?!” She whispered to him ‘loudly’ and quickly glanced around the private plane with embarrassment.

There is a pin-drop silence and everyone is still seated in the same position.

“Javier Zhong!!” She gritted her teeth and pinched his arm angrily.
