Supremely Talented Tyrant

Accustomed to those men's fiery gazes, Sofia felt a bit uncomfortable with Hao Jian's indifferent treatment.

Whether from the men of the group or from other companies, every single one of them would show a desire she loathed upon seeing her, even though she was already in a high position in the group, she still couldn't escape those glances.

In fact, her status intensified their desires, their eager looks almost wanting to devour her.

As she was about to speak, the plane suddenly experienced a slight turbulence, the scenery outside the window began to rotate, and gradually shrank.

The plane was taking off...

"Hey, am I beautiful?"

When the plane reached the clouds, Sofia suddenly tapped Hao Jian's shoulder, her shimmering big eyes like a flowing light, staring at Hao Jian.

Naturally annoyed at being interrupted from his thoughts, but there was no choice, this was a beauty, and one must show some gentlemanly demeanor. Biting his lip, Hao Jian said, "Did you specifically interrupt me just for this boring question?"

But clearly, Hao Jian wasn't inclined to chat seriously with Sofia at this moment. He had just flipped to a page listing Yuan Shanshan's works, intending to examine it closely when this woman interrupted him.

"No... no..."

How terrifying, what's with this man?

Asking this man a simple question, why put on such a face? If you don't want to answer, then don't answer, I'm not begging you to speak.

Sofia was taken aback by Hao Jian's sudden change in expression, fortunately, there were only the two of them in this row of seats, otherwise, someone might have already come over to reason with Hao Jian, right?

"Then don't bother me."

Casually withdrawing his gaze, Hao Jian once again focused on the magazine in his hand, even though she was a foreign beauty, no matter how beautiful, he wasn't inclined to pay attention at the moment.

But when he glanced at Sofia's slightly saddened expression, a sudden twist in his heart, driven by some unknown force, Hao Jian instinctively said something.

"You are beautiful."

"Hehe, I knew it, you must be secretly checking me out! You men are all like this!"

Upon hearing Hao Jian's voice, Sofia suddenly cast aside her gloomy expression, flashing a smile, which momentarily stunned Hao Jian.

This woman's personality is so similar to Che Xiaoxiao...

Shaking his head inwardly, Hao Jian felt rather helpless; the impression this woman gave him was lively and jumpy, much like Che Xiaoxiao, except the only difference was this woman's figure was better than Che Xiaoxiao's.

That is an indisputable fact.

Even though Hao Jian had encountered many beauties, very few could compare to this woman's figure.

"What do you mean 'all the same'?"

Sofia's words rendered Hao Jian momentarily speechless, wasn't he just following her lead? And it brought them onto this topic.

Apparently, answering questions from such narcissistic women holds little necessity, it only leads to awkwardness for oneself.

"My name is Sofia, I'm American, first time seeing a man like you, I'm interested in you, let's be friends!"

Suddenly, Sofia extended her hand to Hao Jian, her bold voice landing in his ears...

Uh, is this woman really so outgoing? Or are all foreigners this open?

"I'm Hao Jian."

Out of courtesy, Hao Jian extended his hand, gently shook Sofia's offered hand; the feel of her hand was soft and boneless, the smoothness of her skin somewhat lingered in Hao Jian's mind, but as soon as they touched, he released her hand.

As the God of Death, Hao Jian's control is beyond ordinary imagination, no matter how beautiful this woman is before him, she's just average to him.

Seeing Hao Jian's reaction, Sofia's eyes squinted slightly, thinking this man quite interesting, she was about to say something when her gaze suddenly fell on the magazine Hao Jian was holding.

Her eyes suddenly narrowed, she exclaimed, "Where did you get this magazine?"

"Uh... it was given by someone else."

Shrugging, Hao Jian truthfully replied, this magazine was also given to him by Shu Ya, saying so was not wrong, yet this sentence left Sofia somewhat stunned.

Given?!

"Was the person who gave you this thing an idiot? This magazine is a highly valuable item in the fashion industry!"

As a loyal supporter of Shu Ya Group's jewelry, Sofia had come to Hua City this time specifically to purchase Shu Ya Group's new jewelry items.

Regarding the magazine in Hao Jian's hand, she had heard much about it but never possessed it, even though she was already a loyal customer of the Shu Ya Group, purchasing jewelry worth upwards of billions, she still hadn't obtained this magazine.

The Shu Ya Group supposedly prints only a hundred copies each year, and by mid-year, these hundred copies are sent to guests, all of whom are major clients of the Shu Ya Group.

Of course, if it were just an ordinary magazine, it wouldn't be a big deal. But the content of this magazine—while the first half is merely regular jewelry introduction, the latter half details the Shu Ya Group's jewelry launch event in the second half of the year!

Those hundred guests get to know in advance the contents of Shu Ya Group's jewelry launch!

If it were an ordinary group, this would be no big deal, but this is the Shu Ya Group! The benefits of knowing the content in advance are not easily explained in a few words.

Just one point is enough—that they can get their funds ready ahead of time and stock up!

Each piece of jewelry from the Shu Ya Group has a strict production limit, and those hundred guests have priority purchasing rights!

...

"Uh...is it very precious?"

Scratching his head, Hao Jian never really cared about company operations. He used the magazine just to kill time when bored, never thinking it precious. He didn't even know how many he'd tossed in the trash.

"Nonsense!"

Sofia gave Hao Jian a sideways glance, feeling somewhat puzzled at how someone who didn't even know the magazine's value could obtain it.

"Well, take a look then."

Shaking his head, Hao Jian casually tossed the magazine to Sofia. Since this woman was interested, he might as well use it to shut her up.

Hao Jian regretted his decision a bit. If he'd known, he wouldn't have taken this flight; he would've flown directly on a private jet. Now, even though the beauty beside him was scenic, she was also a trouble.

"Hey! Don't just throw things like that, okay?!"

Clumsily catching the magazine in her arms, Sofia gave Hao Jian a fierce glare, snorted, turned her head, and began flipping through the magazine, ignoring Hao Jian.

Hao Jian shrugged and closed his eyes, ignoring her too. Since she quieted down, he decided not to provoke her into speaking; otherwise, the trip wouldn't be peaceful.

From Hua City to San Francisco USA, it takes seven to eight hours of flight time. Upon arriving, they'd have to adjust to the time difference; Hao Jian had no time to waste.

However, the journey wasn't as simple as Hao Jian imagined. After Sofia spent an hour reading the magazine, she suddenly focused her gaze on Hao Jian, her big eyes filled with curiosity fixated on him.

Though Hao Jian was resting his eyes, being the God of Death, he perceived things unlike common folk; being stared at for too long felt uncomfortable.

"Hey, chat with me for a bit."

Seeing Hao Jian wake up, Sofia smiled, intrigued.

"..."

Hao Jian, speechless, could only go with Sofia's flow and chat with her. As they conversed, his impatience gradually faded, while Sofia's curiosity turned to admiration.

Listening to Hao Jian talk about all sorts of topics and Sofia share her life details, they both found each other interesting, a person who enjoys life and is knowledgeable.

As they chatted, time flew by, and when they exchanged phone numbers, they were only two hours from their destination.

Curiously, even as they were engrossed in conversation, neither asked the other about their identity. Hao Jian was curious about how this wealthy-feeling woman was in the economy class.

Sofia was curious why someone acknowledged by the Shu Ya Group like Hao Jian was also in economy class like her.

But they kept these questions to themselves, knowing that once voiced, the pleasant feelings would quickly form a barrier between them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to San Francisco!"

When the plane landed, a voice announced their journey's end.

The passengers gathered their belongings and left the plane, and Hao Jian disembarked with Sofia. In the airport hall, Sofia suddenly approached Hao Jian.

"Hao Jian, I enjoyed chatting with you."

"Want to come over to my place?"

"Haha, I've got business to attend to. I'll come over when I'm free. You have my contact, so let's get in touch then!" Hao Jian had other matters to tend to, thus didn't intend to waste time. He wanted to meet her only after everything was sorted and he was free.

"Alright then, I'll go. Remember to contact me!" Knowing Hao Jian had other things, Sofia didn't insist but left the airport with her luggage.

Hao Jian chuckled softly and headed to a corner of the airport, where someone had brought his gear...

In this corner, there was a black handbag. Seeing it, Hao Jian casually picked it up and left.

As he departed, a figure emerged from around the corridor.

"Boss, the package has been delivered to the client's hands!"
