Faced with Li Xiaoman's invitation, Chen Dong could only politely decline. "Maybe next time, I have some things to do at home."

He was afraid that if he continued to get entangled with Li Xiaoman, who knows what kind of trouble might arise.

Boys must learn to protect themselves when they go out.

This is especially true for someone as handsome and wealthy as myself.

Li Xiaoman looked utterly disappointed.

She did have some thoughts about a man as outstanding as Chen Dong.

Because any woman would hold on and never let go.

She was no exception, but unfortunately, it was always a case of unrequited love.

Chen Dong's mind was not on her at all.

Thinking about all this, Li Xiaoman couldn't help but say sourly, "I think you're in a hurry to go back and see your little girlfriend."

Chen Dong touched his nose and gave an awkward smile.

He wasn't a saint like Liu Xiahui, but an ordinary person, and a young man who had just turned twenty and was in the prime of his life.

Seeing Chen Dong's tacit agreement, Li Xiaoman, though somewhat displeased, could only wave her hand, "Go ahead, go ahead, we're not new acquaintances, we can eat anytime. Okay, take this bottle of wine back with you, consider it a small token of my appreciation, please don't refuse, okay?"

Looking into her eyes, Chen Dong knew he shouldn't refuse.

Although doing this might drag her deeper into trouble, she should give up if she keeps getting more and more responses from me.

A dozen minutes later, holding the bottle of 1787 Château Lafite Rothschild red wine that Li Xiaoman had mentioned, Chen Dong left the HSBC Building.

Inside the car.

Wolong asked, "Boss, where are we going now?"

Chen Dong said softly, "Let's go back."

Wolong nodded, feeling a little puzzled: Why didn't the boss stay and have dinner with President Li?

However, these are all Chen Dong's private matters, and it's not his place to interfere.

But Chen Dong was thinking about something else.

The bottle of red wine that Li Xiaoman gave him reminded him that this year was the best time to buy up European vineyards at rock-bottom prices.

In the near future, this deal will bring him at least tens or hundreds of times the return.

Soon, the car arrived at Hidden Dragon Residence.

Upon seeing Chen Dong return, Butler Fu immediately came over and opened the car door.

"Boss, you're back. Miss Zhou has been back for a while now, and Miss Annie is here too."

The reason Zhou Huimin returned so early today was because Chen Dong mentioned to her during their phone call yesterday that he would be returning this afternoon.

Vivian Chow was overjoyed to hear the news.

She had arranged her work well in advance and quickly completed the tasks that needed to be done.

Looking at her watch, she realized that she had finished reviewing all the approval documents and made the corresponding comments in less than forty minutes.

It must be said that when a person has a goal in mind, all their energy will be focused on it.

Focus means that a person will not let their energy be scattered.

Only in this state can one enter a state of "flow".

"Hmm, Annie's back?" Chen Dong looked at Uncle Fu. "When did she arrive?"

"Miss Annie came with Miss Zhou, and they also brought luggage."

Hearing this, Chen Dong was speechless.

It's not that he disliked Anne.

Anne and Vivian Chow were both his women.

The fact that the two of them came together shows that they get along very well.

This is also what Chen Dong hoped to see; after all, harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things.

He found it a bit odd, though. Annie should have been in the US handling work, and even if she was going back to Hong Kong, she should have called him.

Chen Dong then asked with a smile, "Where are they?"

"In the reception room."

"I understand. Tell the kitchen to prepare the meal, including two Sichuan dishes."

“Yes, sir.” Uncle Fu nodded and immediately went to make the arrangements.

At this moment, Chen Dong also came to the living room and, sure enough, saw the two women sitting on the sofa chatting.

Judging from their expressions, they were having a great time chatting.

"When did you get back? You didn't even say a word."

Hearing the familiar voice, Annie turned her head and saw Chen Dong looking at them with a smile.

Immediately, she jumped up in surprise and rushed into Chen Dong's arms, murmuring, "Boss, I missed you so much."

Zhou Huimin watched this scene with a smile, but felt a slight pang of sadness in her heart.

But a moment later, she was also pulled into the man's arms. "You've become even more beautiful since I last saw you."

Zhou Huimin was secretly pleased, but said aloud, "No way, you're just being glib."

Annie said coquettishly, "Boss, I heard from Sister Min that you gave her a set of exquisite jade jewelry."

"Don't worry, you'll get your share; everything is prepared for you."

"Really, that's great, thank you boss." Annie said, giving him a kiss.

Zhou Huimin turned her head to the side and snorted, "I really can't stand the two of you, still playing those office games."

Although Annie and Chen Dong heard what Zhou Huimin said, neither of them responded because they were entangled in each other's arms.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Annie then stuck out her tongue and said playfully, "Boss, Min is jealous."

"No, your Sister Min just thinks we're immoral and wanton!"

"No, we were just exchanging normal bodily fluids!" Annie said innocently.

"It's getting more and more out of hand... Never mind, you two talk, I'll go check on the kitchen." Zhou Huimin slipped away.

Actually, she deliberately left space for the two of them.

Compared to her and Chen Dong, Annie and Chen Dong rarely saw each other.
