Love of CEO

Finale 40.1

After weeks of stress, drama, tears, and triumph, the mid-term vacation had finally arrived. For the first time in a long while, there was no rush, no assignments, and no exams to haunt their dreams.

Wei Ying stretched lazily on the couch, phone in hand, already halfway through planning the getaway. "Okay, everyone voted, and majority wins," he declared in their group chat.

Wei Ying:
Okay! Everyone voted and it's decided-we are going to Sanya. The Hawaii of China! 🌴🌊

Yanli:
Yep! That'll be a great place to enjoy since it's still the autumn season.

Xui Ching:
Yes! It'll be so good to hang out with you all.

Cangse Sanren:
I'm still a little worried. Is it really okay for us to go like this?

Mrs. Lan:
Of course! We'll have fun. Don't worry so much!

Yu Ziyan:
Yeah, that's absolutely right. I'm in and already packing my bags!

Huisang:
Yasss! Let's go! I've booked the tickets and planned the entire schedule. I'll share it in this group. Our flights are tomorrow afternoon. Pack all the essentials, my girlies!

Wei Ying:
I'm still here, you moron!

Xui Ching:
Same here!

Huisang:
Yeah, yeah-my girlies and two bottom boys. Is that better? 😂

Actually, this trip was happening without any of the top males. When it came to this vacation, everyone had their own reasons for leaving their partners behind-and going without telling them.

The ladies were mostly upset because it had been ages, and their partners still hadn't taken them on a single trip-not even a boring business one. So here they were, joining the youngsters.

For Yanli, she had been waiting for Jin Zixuan to propose marriage. But even after five years of relationship, he kept saying he was "too busy." So she need peace of her mind.

Xui Ching? He just wanted to have fun-that's it. So he let Xichen know but with promise not tell others until they have reached to the place.

As for Wei Ying, his reason was... a bit more experimental. He wanted to see if Lan Zhan would follow him if he suddenly disappeared. According to him, it was purely a case study on lover behavior. Totally academic, of course.

And Huisang? Well, he was the one who initiated the whole trip. No one knew why-and honestly, no one asked either. But he has his own reasons for sure.

So, with determined minds and packed bags, they were ready. By evening, it was surprisingly easy to fool the men in the house. The ladies hid their excitement well and acted completely normal, as if it were just another peaceful day.

Wei Ying, meanwhile, was on a video call with Lan Zhan, who was working alone in his home office.

"Aren't you tired, Lan Zhan?" Wei Ying asked, resting his head on his pillow.

"A little," Lan Zhan replied, his voice soft. "But I have to finish the work so I can spend more time with you." He looked up at the screen-and froze.

For a moment, his breath caught.

His Wei Ying was lying there in the most relaxed, unintentionally seductive pose-shirt slipping off one shoulder, hair messily tied in a bun, sleepy eyes shining like galaxies, gazing only at him. Only Lan Zhan knew how hard it was to hold himself back whenever he saw Wei Ying like this.
