Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Want to Eat?
No wonder the CEO had such a poor impression of her, disliking her so much—who wouldn’t find her annoying?
Ye Xian, overwhelmed with shame and annoyance, couldn’t bear to face him any longer, nor did she have the courage to continue staying in the same car compartment with him.
If she stayed any longer, she feared she would die of embarrassment and suffocation!
Suppressing the strong urge to jump out of the car, Ye Xian said to Pang Kai with forced calmness, “Um, Assistant Pang, could you please pull over? I need to get out.”
Before Pang Kai could respond to her, he glanced in the rearview mirror as if seeking the CEO’s opinion.
Bo Tingshen crossed his long legs and looked at his watch with a detached expression, “Thirty more minutes.”
“Okay!”
Pang Kai immediately understood and stepped on the accelerator.
Ye Xian watched as the speed of the car suddenly increased, “???”
Pang Kai: “Mr. Ye, I’m sorry, but the CEO is on a tight schedule. You can’t get off the car before we reach our destination.”
“???” Ye Xian was full of question marks. What kind of schedule was so tight that she didn’t even have time to get off the car? Were they rushing to rob a bank?
Or did the CEO think that even the time to get off the car was not worth wasting on her? But wouldn’t keeping her here be even more of an eyesore?!
“Where is our destination?”

“Ganting Castle.”
Ye Xian knew the place—a famous villa area in the Capital Suburb, nearly a hundred kilometers away from here. Half an hour truly was tight, but she…
‘Grumble grumble~’
Before she could fret over getting off, her flat stomach suddenly growled.
Ye Xian: “…” Maybe this was just fate.
It was embarrassing enough as it was, and now her stomach had to join in at the worst possible time!
But she couldn’t blame it; she hadn’t eaten breakfast because she’d thought she would feast at the restaurant, but then she was startled by Jiang Xin’s confession and had ended up not eating a single bite. As if that wasn’t enough, she’d been chased by a group of fans in the mall for more than ten minutes, using up the last bit of energy she had.
Now she really was… so hungry.
‘Grumble grumble~’
She couldn’t think about it; the more she thought, the hungrier she got, the hungrier she got, the louder the noise, as if there was a group of pigeons in her stomach.
Ye Xian awkwardly held her stomach, shifted her position, and leaned tightly against the car door with a serious expression, trying to ignore the hunger. Then, Pang Kai puzzledly asked, “Where is that pigeon cooing coming from?”
“…” Ye Xian twitched the corner of her eye and continued to pretend she didn’t know, but then her eyes inadvertently caught sight of something next to Bo Tingshen.
The car fridge!
Luxury cars really were different—starlit roofs, leather seats, velvet carpets, and a fridge stocked with food when you are hungry…
Ye Xian could almost imagine the tasty dishes inside, and she couldn’t help but lick her lips, her eyes fixated on the car fridge.
Perhaps her gaze was too intense, Bo Tingshen noticed and glanced over, “Hungry?”
True to form for a top-tier boss! Always having the ability to peer right into people’s hearts!
Ye Xian nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, yes!”
Since her image in his eyes couldn’t sink any lower, she might as well throw caution to the wind—filling her stomach was more important.
Ye Xian thought he might make things difficult or mock her, but nothing of the sort happened. Bo Tingshen merely opened the fridge, “Take whatever you want.”
“!”
Pang Kai listened, somewhat shocked.
With the CEO’s severe obsession with cleanliness, he actually let someone touch his fridge?
Gratefully, Ye Xian moved closer. In the fridge, there weren’t the variety of foods she had imagined, only a few bottles of water, several boxes of Russian dark chocolates, and … dried strawberries? Her favorite fruit snacks!
