A Peerless Beauty, As Expected

"Brother Yixuan, regardless of whether my sister gets a share of the assets after the divorce, I'll do everything I can to help you when you need money!"

Xiao Yixuan was the illegitimate son of the Xiao family, and he aspired to acquire the Xiao family's shares. Fortunately, there was a chance for him to do so.

However, acquiring the shares required a substantial amount of money, which he intended to secure through a portion of Ming Yao's divorce settlement.

Given Fourth Master's present standing, it was anticipated that Ming Yao could potentially secure tens of billions of yuan from the divorce.

Xiao Yixuan gazed at the gentle Ming Guan and expressed affectionately, "Guan Guan, I don't require your financial assistance! Your sister holds deep affection for me; she dreams of being with me even when she sleeps. When I make her wish a reality, she will willingly provide me with the divorce settlement!"

Xiao Yixuan was fair and handsome, resembling a delicate youth. He had garnered a significant fan base in the entertainment industry, particularly for his role in a historical puppet drama.

His countenance was undoubtedly appealing to girls.

Ming Yao overheard the conversation between Xiao Yixuan and Ming Guan. She stowed away her phone and yawned leisurely.

Xiao Yixuan's appearance was perhaps the most valuable asset in his possession.

Her love for him was evidently profound, even infiltrating her dreams, right?

Very well, then she would mar that face he so proudly wore!

Ming Yao proceeded to the flower market and subsequently to a high-end shopping mall.

She ultimately arrived at Zijin Park, their customary meeting spot.

Xiao Yixuan seemed confident that Ming Yao would appear. He was dressed smartly in a suit, his hair styled handsomely. A smile played across his lips as he saw Ming Yao, thinking himself quite dashing.

"Yaoyao, you're here!"

Xiao Yixuan's expression registered a slight jolt as he beheld Ming Yao's face, devoid of makeup.

Undoubtedly, Ming Yao was naturally beautiful.

Her eyes resembled those of a red phoenix, with a dainty nose, vivid red lips, and a mole at the corner of her eye. Every feature of her face demonstrated her remarkable beauty.

A certain untamed allure emanated from her.

Xiao Yixuan had heard rumors of Ming Yao's promiscuous past prior to her marriage to the Fourth Master of the Gu family. She had been dubbed the "public bus" in both her school and the entertainment circuit.

Xiao Yixuan found such a history distasteful.

Though Ming Yao hadn't maintained the best reputation, when devoid of heavy makeup, she remained an attractive option for many.

Given that Xiao Yixuan had not yet received the substantial divorce settlement, he wished to deter her from being overly popular.

Consequently, he had encouraged her to adopt an unattractive appearance. Ironically, out of excessive love, he wanted her to avoid being overly captivating and thus at risk of being taken away by other men.

However, Ming Yao seemed to have undergone a transformation after last night.

Suppressing his annoyance, Xiao Yixuan frowned and inquired, "Yaoyao, why are you removing your makeup? And your hair, too?"

Ming Yao looked at Xiao Yixuan, who was pretending to be dashing. Her fingers drifted through her long hair, and she offered a nonchalant smile. "Do I not look good like this?"

"It's not that you don't look good. Haven't I mentioned before that you're already too beautiful? I worry that other men might snatch you away."

Ming Yao's smile grew more profound. "You're the handsome one. No other man can compare to you."

Ming Yao produced an exquisitely wrapped box. "Here, this is for you."

Xiao Yixuan lowered his head to examine it, revealing a flicker of surprise.

It was a limited edition Gucci pour Homme perfume.

Ming Yao activated the perfume, spritzing it onto Xiao Yixuan. "Do you like the scent?"

The blend of premium spices combined with subtle floral notes emitted an agreeable aroma.

Xiao Yixuan regarded the woman before him. A rosy smile graced her luminous and enchanting countenance. The beauty mark at the corner of her eye seemed to exude an even more alluring charm within such a smile.

A peerless beauty was indeed encapsulated in this image.

Truth be told, spending a night with her wouldn't be a regrettable endeavor.

Xiao Yixuan remained unaware of whether it was the perfume's irresistible fragrance or her languid smile that proved overwhelmingly enticing, but he found himself unable to resist reaching out, as if to draw her into his embrace for a kiss.
