CHAPTER 97: CHAPTER 93 PERFECT SMILE

It was a beautiful coat of excellent quality, featuring a delicate blue pattern.

Hua Xiaomo’s eyes widened so much she almost forgot to breathe for a moment.

Oh, heaven! She admitted she wasn’t a beauty, but her heart had never pounded so erratically before.

Even back in the art studio at school, she had never lost control or composure like this. From entering the studio to leaving, throughout the entire process of completing a painting, she had always managed to remain composed.

But why, oh why, was her heart beating faster now?

Alright, the only explanation was that this man’s shoulders were too captivating—he was like the very embodiment of the War God and David!

Suddenly, Hua Xiaomo gulped and said hurriedly, "President Qi... perhaps you should just keep that inner garment on."

Qi Longbing paused, then smiled again. "...Alright."

He found himself inexplicably agreeing with her. Perhaps this kind of flirting needed to be taken slowly, not too aggressively, as that could backfire.

Qi Longbing casually slipped off his shoes, then lay barefoot horizontally on the sofa. Propping his head up with one hand, he struck a pose and offered a perfect smile.

"How’s this?" Qi Longbing asked with a smile.

His handsome face radiated a striking beauty. The Ice Blue Jade Cross Pendant around his neck swayed gently, exuding an aura of understated luxury.

"OK." Hua Xiaomo nodded and made an OK gesture. She quickly adjusted her breathing and smiled at him awkwardly. "I... I’m going to get another bottle of mineral water."

"Get one for me too," Qi Longbing replied quickly. His stunningly handsome face still wore that elegant smile, as if his mood wouldn’t change even if the sky—or rather, the tower—were to fall.

Comfort, contentment, curiosity, excitement—all these sensations welled up from the depths of his heart, merging into an indescribably wondrous feeling.

So soft, so smooth, so gentle. It was like a moment of serene beauty unveiled... Such beauty was beyond compare, truly indescribable!

Qi Longbing watched her walk away. She wore a lantern-sleeved, Court-styled blue blouse paired with suit pants, and her feet were in burgundy designer high heels. A subtle thought began to ripple in the depths of his heart.

Her silhouette from behind was truly beautiful, statuesque.

But why had he never noticed how good her figure was before? It seemed to far surpass that of any supermodel.

Her shoulders looked well-proportioned, her waist slim, her curves full, and her legs long. Everything about her was pleasing to the eye—a perfect, graceful, and curvaceous S-shape.

Soon, Hua Xiaomo returned with two bottles of Mineral Water. She tossed one to him. "Catch!"

Qi Longbing reached out and caught it steadily. Smiling, he then playfully held the cool Mineral Water bottle to his lips like a prop.

"Wow! That pose is perfect!" Hua Xiaomo suddenly exclaimed, her gaze fixed on him at that very second.

It was just too captivating! He seemed to have been born with the innate talent to be an artist’s model!

"Good. In that case, hurry up and paint me!" Qi Longbing said with a smile. His lips still brushed against the cool Mineral Water bottle, and his smile was devilishly charming.

"Just a moment, I’m getting to it," Hua Xiaomo replied, immediately setting up her drawing board and preparing her brushes.

But just as she was about to make the first stroke on the drawing board, she suddenly had another thought and hesitated. "President Qi, how about I take a photo of you first, and then I can paint from that? Would that be okay?"

She intuitively felt his expression was so striking, his smile so radiant—like peach blossoms in March, utterly captivating! Plus, he was so handsome; yes, truly, very handsome.
