Jun Shiling smiled and tapped the corners of his lips. Xia Wanyuan understood and picked up a tissue to wipe it.
However, Jun Shiling had chosen the lower right corner. Xia Wanyuan had wiped the lower left corner. A cream the size of a rice grain still lingered by Xia Wanyuan's lips.
When Xia Wanyuan ate the cake, she first scooped a mouthful of it on the spoon, then gently rolled it up and sipped the cake.

Jun Shiling's eyes darkened as he watched Xia Wanyuan's nimble tongue slice across the spoon. His throat bobbed.
"Is it sweet?" Jun Shiling suddenly asked.
"Sweet." Xia Wanyuan nodded. It was sweet but not greasy. It was still quite delicious.
"Let me try it."
After Jun Shiling finished speaking, he approached Xia Wanyuan. He was already sitting very close to Xia Wanyuan, so he turned slightly. Before Xia Wanyuan could react, he took the small piece of cream from the corner of her lips.
Jun Shiling sat back down and pursed his lips. "Mm, it's indeed very sweet."
Xia Wanyuan's hand that was holding the spoon was stunned. There seemed to be a hint of sensation at the corners of her lips. It was like a piece of flint, burning the corners of her lips.
"Didn't you say if you didn't have my permission..." Xia Wanyuan was embarrassed. This person had only gone out for a trip. Why has he become like this now?
"I just tasted the cake. Do I need your permission to eat a cake in the future?" Jun Shiling looked a little surprised and troubled. "It's not impossible. Just be strict on me if you want. Who asked me to like you?"
Xia Wanyuan was stunned. She didn't know if it was because of Jun Shiling's powerful logical ability to distort the truth or because of that sentence "Who asked me to like you?"
Seeing Xia Wanyuan's rare stunned expression, the smile in Jun Shiling's eyes finally leaked.
Xia Wanyuan was both embarrassed and angry. After Jun Shiling came back from a trip, he had become increasingly fond of teasing her.
Xia Wanyuan was extremely embarrassed and angry, but she calmed down. "Is the dignified CEO Jun of the Jun Corporation so free to tease people?"
Jun Shiling raised an eyebrow. He was furious.
"I only see who it is, not what it is."
His business depended on who the person was.
Xia Wanyuan naturally understood what he meant, but to Jun Shiling's surprise, Xia Wanyuan was not as embarrassed as before. Instead, her expression was very calm.
Putting down the spoon in her hand, Xia Wanyuan sat closer to Jun Shiling.
The two of them were already very close to each other. Now, they were practically sitting together.
Jun Shiling's eyebrows twitched. "You?"
Xia Wanyuan reached out and pulled Jun Shiling's tie towards her. Even Jun Shiling was pulled extremely close by her, and their breathing intertwined.
Jun Shiling's breathing instantly became heavier.
Xia Wanyuan blew gently at Jun Shiling. The faint smell of strawberries mixed with the sweetness of the cream instantly filled the small space between the two of them. The corners of Xia Wanyuan's lips curled up slightly, and her eyes revealed a hint of charm. "Is it sweet?"

Jun Shiling's relaxed body stiffened immediately. He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were as dark as the night before the storm. It was as if he wanted to suck her in.
Jun Shiling looked at the flushed face close to him, and his gaze instantly turned domineering. Even Xia Wanyuan, who had started first, was shocked by Jun Shiling's domineering gaze.
Jun Shiling leaned over to snatch the sweetness, but Xia Wanyuan raised her hand to stop him.
At that moment, Jun Shiling's entire body seemed to be on fire. He passed Xia Wanyuan's hand and was about to kiss her.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The door of the car was knocked on, and Xiao Bao's childish voice sounded outside the door. "Mommy, Daddy, you're back!!! Come out, Mommy! I missed you!!!"
Xia Wanyuan smiled and pushed Jun Shiling away. "We're home, CEO Jun." There was a hint of smugness in her eyes, making her look delicate and lively.
Xia Wanyuan opened the car door. Xiao Bao opened his big eyes and happily hugged Xia Wanyuan's thigh. "Mommy, I missed you so much!"
"Good boy, I missed you too." Xia Wanyuan patted Xiao Bao's head.
"Mommy, didn't Uncle Wang say that Daddy is back too? Why didn't Daddy get out of the car?" Although he was usually an expert at scamming his father, Xiao Bao still missed him very much after not seeing Jun Shiling for two days.
"Your father? I don't know. Maybe he's busy with work. Let's go in first." When Xiao Bao mentioned Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan recalled Jun Shiling's surprised and helpless expression when she got out of the car and felt amused.
"Okay." Although he could not see his father, he did not need to see him with his mother around!!! Xiao Bao happily pulled Xia Wanyuan's hand into the house.
In the car, Jun Shiling massaged his temples helplessly and glanced down.
I was just asking for trouble.
Jun Shiling rolled down the car window and sat in the car for a full twenty minutes before the heat on his body slowly dissipated.
When Jun Shiling entered the house, Xiao Bao was squatting on the ground, playing with the plane Jun Shiling had brought back from France.
Hearing footsteps, Xia Wanyuan looked up and met Jun Shiling's helpless and indulgent gaze. Her face heated up, and she looked away.

Ever since Yuan Wanxia's account had posted a video last time and had attracted millions of fans, there had been no more activity.
The netizens who had come for the sake of learning painting and calligraphy were anxious when they saw that this mysterious master had not updated for a long time. They all left comments on Weibo, hoping that the master could show off a little to the public and let everyone learn.
Even Chen Yun and Tang Yin did not know that this mysterious painter, who had a great reputation in the domestic art world, was Xia Wanyuan. The account Yuan Wanxia was also personally managed by Xia Wanyuan.
Normally, she rarely read Weibo, but today, after Jun Shiling said that earth-shattering cake tasting theory, Xia Wanyuan did not want to bother with Jun Shiling for the entire afternoon.
Hence, Yuan Wanxia's account was finally recalled by her. She clicked on it and saw that it was filled with comments backstage.
Xia Wanyuan felt that in fact, this era did not lack traditions as much as she had imagined. Many people still liked these cultures that had been passed down for a thousand years.
Xia Wanyuan simply entered the study, took out ink, paper, and inkstones, and recorded a slower teaching video for the netizens.
Over the years, the country's traditional culture had gradually disappeared. One of the reasons was that the price of being able to hire a professional master to teach painting and calligraphy was not cheap. Many people wanted to learn it, but they could not do so.
Some video websites had free teaching videos, but the quality was uneven. Many people wanted to learn but could not find a way.
Yuan Wanxia's account, which had not been updated for a long time, suddenly had a new update. Everyone clicked on it curiously.
Hey! Master's teaching for free!! Learn it!
Everyone followed Yuan Wanxia's video and finished drawing it. Then, they uploaded the photos for Yuan Wanxia to comment on.
Xia Wanyuan was flipping through the "homework" that the netizens had posted when a key suddenly appeared in front of her.
Chapter 289: The Wei Family in Beijing
Xia Wanyuan looked up. Jun Shiling had entered the study at some point in time and was holding a black car key.
"Come out, I have a gift for you." Jun Shiling handed the car keys to Xia Wanyuan and walked out the door. Xia Wanyuan followed Jun Shiling out.
A silver-gray sports car with a scientific appearance was parked in the courtyard.

"Isn't there a lot of cars in the garage?" Xia Wanyuan looked at the keys in her hand. This car was probably for me.
"This model is limited edition, the only one in the world. Go and try it."
Lin Jing was still very efficient. In such a short time, he had brought this car back to China from abroad.
The world's limited edition "Angel's Wings" was created with the most cutting-edge technology. Xia Wanyuan sat on it and tried it. It felt pretty good.
"Thank you." Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
She knew that Jun Shiling treated her very well.
"You're welcome. As long as you're willing to pay attention to me." Jun Shiling was very happy to see that Xia Wanyuan liked this car.
As long as she liked it, he would give her the best of anything.
After dinner, Xia Wanyuan sat on the sofa and watched a video. An unfamiliar call from Beijing came in.
"Hello?" Xia Wanyuan pressed the answer button.
"Hello, is this Xia Wanyuan?" The tone on the other end of the line was very arrogant.
"What's the matter?"
"I'm the butler of the Wei family. The Wei family's banquet is next Tuesday night. I informed you to come and attend." After speaking, the other party hung up the phone without waiting for Xia Wanyuan to reply.
Xia Wanyuan held her phone and frowned slightly.
The Wei family? What did the Wei family banquet have to do with me?
Xia Wanyuan searched her mind but could not find any connection between the Wei family and her.
Xia Wanyuan stood up and walked to the study. It was better to ask Jun Shiling.
——
Wei Family Villa
"What do you think the Old Madam is thinking? Third Miss has already cut ties with the Wei family for so many years and she's already dead. Why did she bring Third Miss's daughter back now?"
"I heard that Third Miss's daughter is an arrogant and despotic straw bag. Who knows what Old Madam wants?"
"Are you done informing them? Quick, we have to specially go to the eldest branch to send the invitation later."
"I've informed her. Damn, she's just a little celebrity who has never experienced the world. She must be so happy to know that she can attend the Wei family's banquet."

In the study, Jun Shiling was listening to his subordinates report on work.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door from the video call. Everyone tacitly shut their mouths.
It was obvious who the person who dared to knock on the door during Jun Shiling's meeting was.
As expected, everyone saw the expressionless and cold Jun Shiling soften his eyes instantly. There was even a smile on his face.
Everyone's hearts trembled again.
"Hand the rest of the work to Lin Jing," Jun Shiling said briefly to the screen and hung up.
"What's wrong?" Jun Shiling stepped forward and opened the door for Xia Wanyuan.
"Do you know the Wei family in Beijing?"
"The Wei family?" Jun Shiling's eyes flickered. "This is a very old family, but they're very powerful and can be considered one of the top three families in China. Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
"Someone called me just now and asked me to attend the Wei family banquet."
Family banquet?
Hearing this word, Jun Shiling narrowed his eyes slightly. "Wait for me. I'll get someone to investigate."
