Chapter 121: Teacher Ye Leads by Example

This small wooden cabin seemed specially designed for screening films, with excellent soundproofing. The audio from the movie was exceptionally clear in this room, even carrying a subtle surround sound effect.

Wen Nan cleared his throat awkwardly, stood up, and reached to eject the disc. “Sorry, it must be the wrong disc. I’ll pause it—”

“—Hey!” Guan Ailin suddenly raised her hand, grabbing Wen Nan’s arm. “It’s already playing, let’s just finish watching it, okay?”

Wen Nan stared at her in disbelief.

The film had plunged straight into the main content in less than five minutes. There was still over an hour left, and it was almost certain that the rest would be more of the same.

A man and a woman alone in a room, watching this kind of thing…

Was this a test of Wen Nan’s self-control or a challenge to his manhood?

Just as he was pondering, Guan Ailin tugged on his arm, shaking it gently. “I’ve never watched something like this before. It seems quite interesting. I want to see it through—please?”

With such insistence, Wen Nan found it hard to refuse. He sighed and said, “Are you sure you want to watch it all with me? If you’re really interested, I can leave this disc with you, and you can watch it on your own when you have time.”

Guan Ailin shook her head firmly. “I don’t want to watch it alone. I want to watch it with you.”

Wen Nan looked deeply into her eyes. “Are you certain? Do you know what the consequences might be?”

Seeing his serious expression, Guan Ailin couldn’t help but laugh. “When I sign contracts with clients, I say almost the same thing.”

After that, noticing Wen Nan wasn’t in the mood to joke, she sobered and said earnestly, “I just want you to spend more time with me. If it’s you, it doesn’t matter what we do.”

Since she had spoken so plainly, it would be impolite to refuse further.

Wen Nan sat back down beside Guan Ailin. “Alright.”

Time passed swiftly as the two on the screen finished the appetizer and prepared to move on to the main course.

Guan Ailin watched intently, fists clenched, jaw tight, her face serious and every muscle tense. She resembled a startled kitten, seemingly ready to spring into action at any moment.

Watching this felt less like seeing an action movie and more like a horror film—why was she so nervous?

Just then, on screen, the male lead grasped a sweat-dampened patch of the female lead’s skin. Guan Ailin’s entire body tensed, and her hand instinctively reached out toward Wen Nan. Originally, she meant to seek comfort by grabbing his arm, but accidentally poked somewhere else instead, jolting herself like an electric shock and pulling her hand back.

“Sorry… I’m sorry…”

She held her breath, eyes refusing to meet Wen Nan’s, her hands placed obediently on her lap, too afraid to move.

Wen Nan observed every subtle gesture. He hadn’t expected the founder of Ailin Group to be so innocent in such matters, as pure as a blank sheet.

The surround sound continued relentlessly, intensifying the heat and thickness in the small wooden room.

Wen Nan clearly saw a flush spreading over Guan Ailin’s full, rising chest.

A faint scent of freesia lingered in the air—not sure if it was her perfume or her natural scent, but the fragrance stirred memories within Wen Nan, intoxicating him deeply.

Before his mind was entirely overtaken, Wen Nan activated the skill from his system: Mind Reading.

That familiar soft female voice soon whispered in his ear—

‘So this is what an uncensored, realistic version looks like.’

‘So dark, so ugly, and the poses are so strange...’

‘But it’s so captivating, I can’t look away.’

‘Ah, really? Our products are so pink and beautiful, so they must be heavily beautified and distorted, right? No wonder our female customers far outnumber the male ones…’

‘A little scary...’

‘Not sure, let me watch again.’

‘Hmm, still a bit scary.’

‘Are all men like this? Is Ye Jiu like this too?’

Guan Ailin frowned deeply, her eyes full of curiosity. Then she suddenly shut them, shook her head, but couldn’t help reopening them, finally casting a secretive glance at the man beside her.

Wen Nan chuckled softly.

Startled, Guan Ailin turned to him. “What’s so funny?”

“Do you want to see?” Wen Nan asked.

“W-What?” she replied, puzzled.

“See if I’m like that,” he said.

Her eyes widened in disbelief. “H-How did you know...?”

“Just a guess,” Wen Nan tapped her soft cheek. “All those little thoughts are written all over your face.”

Guan Ailin blushed fiercely, her body heating up. The touch of Wen Nan’s cool fingers made her shiver. She straightened up. “I—I wasn’t thinking about those things…”

Wen Nan shook his head teasingly and called her “President Guan,” then asked, “You’ve never dealt with this before, no practical experience. How do you oversee Ailin Company’s products?”

Feeling her work questioned, Guan Ailin’s eyes darkened with displeasure. “I don’t need hands-on experience. I understand data analysis, market forecasting, and how to negotiate with partners. That’s enough. Besides, I have... a great teacher who teaches me every day.”

...A great teacher?

Could it be that anatomical model on the CEO’s desk?

In Wen Nan’s mind, he pictured Guan Ailin sitting behind her desk like a stern scholar, glasses perched on her nose, clutching the anatomical model and earnestly studying every part.

He couldn’t help but laugh aloud.

Guan Ailin furrowed her brow even more. “Are you mocking me?”

“No,” Wen Nan said, his playful expression fading into seriousness as he looked at this delicate yet innocent woman before him.

Guan Ailin’s cheeks blazed deeper, the redness spreading from her ears to her neck. She lowered her gaze, avoiding his eyes.

Wen Nan leaned closer.

Guan Ailin stiffened, unsure how to react, when suddenly her wrist was grasped.

Wen Nan held her hand against his chest and began to move it slowly.

“If you don’t mind, why not hand over those ‘teacher’s’ duties to me?”

“Whatever you’re curious about, I can teach you step by step.”

A deeper smile curved Wen Nan’s lips.

“There’s a whole room full of teaching tools here. We have plenty of time. Shall we go through them one by one?”

“Guan, which one would you like to start with? Teacher Ye will teach you personally.”
