Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Since the moment they left Empire's premises, Yi Lan kept on staring at Lie Ruge with only his right hand on the steering. All his mind and attention was focused on Lie Ruge, forgetting the fact that he was driving. Lie Ruge has cautioned him twice to face his front while driving after they had nearly gotten into an accident due to how fast Yi Lan was driving combined with his lack of concentration but Yi Lan did not listen to her, he still kept on staring at her. When Yi Lan almost bumped into a car that was in front of them, Lie Ruge could not handle it anymore so she said her mind.

"Can you concentrate? We might get into a very serious accident at this rate if you don't focus your attention on the road. As you know we don't have two lives and I haven't lived long enough to have a dead wish and I bet you haven't too, so as not to leave any regrets behind, mind the way you drive Young Master Yi", Lie Ruge warned him sternly. Dying was not an option for her anytime soon. She hasn't fully enjoyed her love life and to make the situation worst, she has not yet confessed her feelings to the man who has won her heart, so how can she ever wish to die when there are a lot of good stuffs waiting for her in the near future. Yi Lan still kept on staring at her despite her numerous warning, he had thousands of questions on his mind that needed her answers and more than a million words to express how much he had missed and longed for her but he didn't want to ask her such questions since it will definitely make her feel awkward towards him. Lie Ruge who acted all serious and temperamental often stole secret glances at Yi Lan whenever he took his eyes off her for some minutes. She kept on stealing secret glances at Yi Lan until they finally got to the restaurant which Yi Lan had already made his reservation. The owner of the restaurant was Yi Lan's good friend, he only made reservations there as a part of formality because he really did not have to make any reservations before he could gain full access to the restaurant. The owner of T. M restaurant personally went to their booked VVVIP room to welcome his number one customer and his friend. Yi Lan had already informed him that he had a very important personnel with him but when he saw who Yi Lan's company was, he opened his mouth in shock.

"Wow! What an honour to have you here CEO Lie, it is very nice to meet you here", Zuo Zhen, popularly known as President Zuo, greeted Lie Ruge totally ignoring his friend's presence. Zuo Zhen opened his restaurant two years ago as an hobby while still maintaining his authority as the President of Zuo Companies.

"Nice to meet you too and you are.....?", Lie Ruge asked trying to recall his face. She felt like she has met him before but she could not recall his name or position. 

"I am President Zuo of Zuo Companies. I can't believe CEO Lie cannot recognized this rare species of beauty which even Young Master Yi is dying to have a taste of how it feels to be this extraordinarily handsome", Zuo Zhen said proudly. He specifically mentioned Yi Lan's name to make him feel upset but Yi Lan did not feel bothered at all. Zuo Zhen little joke made Lie Ruge smile brightly, she could not help laughing at Zuo Zhen's joke, especially the part he compared his looks to that of Yi Lan. "Although Zuo Zhen is not lacking in times of looks since he was also handsome but how could he compare Yi Lan's unbeatable handsome looks with his", Lie Ruge thought within. 

"So you are the wonder man who makes tons of money by doing what he likes and is still able to fully maintain his position and authority as the President of such a prominent company such as the Zuo's Companies. I have heard so much about you President Zuo", Lie Ruge complimented him with a sweet beam of smile on her pretty face which added more charms to her beauty. She looked so dazzling with such a sweet smile on her face which made Zuo Zhen subconsciously shake his head twice before he could recover from her charms. Yi Lan gave his friend a murderous glare to make him understand that Lie Ruge was his woman.

"I am so happy that CEO Lie thinks so highly of me and what you have just said is not a lie but truth be told, all my entire wealth only amounts to CEO Lie's pocket money compared to half of your own personal wealth. So this means I am just an amateur when it comes to making wealth compare to professionals like you and that sulky guy sitting over there. I hope CEO Lie will be so kind enough to teach me few tricks on how to make wealth hahaha....", Zuo Zhen replied humorously. During their discussion, the waitress greeted them politely and then proceeded in placing all their orders on the table. She bowed her head and left the room after she was through with displaying their orders on the table. Yi Lan felt so jealous when he saw how well Lie Ruge was getting along with his friend. He felt like kicking Zuo Zhen's butt out of the room for daring to interrupt his private time with Ge'er. He had been with Lie Ruge for the past four minutes in the car but she neither spoke politely nor smiled so brightly to him as she has just done a few minutes ago. He was angry with himself because he was not the one who made her smile but his friend. 

"Did you just realized that fact?", Yi Lan spoke for the first since his friend set his feet into the VVVIP's room.

"Wow! Look at who we have here, the Almighty Young Master Yi. Does our Young Master Yi normally had the luxury to frequent expensive restaurants when he didnt have the time to honour his friend's  invitation to celebrate the two years anniversary of the restaurant he is sitting down in right now? And even when Yun Yi and Tan Fan wanted to attend the anniversary celebration, they rejected my invitation when they found out that their Third brother was not going to be in attenattendance", Zuo Zhen who had deliberately ignored Yi Lan since the moment he entered the VVVIP's room finally spoke to Yi Lan in a wronged tone.

"Why are you such a cry-baby? Wasn't my gifts enough? From the information I got, I heard that you were unbelievably happy and satisfied with my gifts or was the feedback I got a lie?", Yi Lan asked trying to act petty like Zuo Zhen. 

"You..... Ok, I was very happy when I received your gifts. Tell me, who on Earth will not be happy after receiving such  fantastic gifts although I think our Pretty CEO Lie and the petty Young Master Yi are an exception but despite the fact that I happily received your gift does not mean that I am not annoy with you. I really needed your moral support there as my friend but you were not there to give me that support", Zuo Zhen said firmly. Lie Ruge watched their little show in delight, it was then she realized how close Yi Lan was with this President Zuo,  they were much closer than she had thought. Zuo Zhen playful nature made her realized how much she had missed Yun Yi and Tan Fan's chatters.

"Young Men, although I can see that you guys are still energetic, it will be such a waste if this entire meal gets cold so let's eat, you can still continue with your discussion later on OK?", Lie Ruge interrupted their conversation. 

"CEO Lie is so considerate of me, sorry for keeping you waiting. Let's eat then", Zuo Zhen quickly replied when he noticed that Yi Lan was going to reply too.

"Who said you were included in this and stop acting so friendly to her when you have just met her for the first time today because it is pissing me off seeing you behave in such a flirtatious manner", Yi Lan said coldly, trying to drive Zuo Zhen out of the room but Zuo Zhen did not move an inch.
