4: Chapter 4 The Generous 4: Chapter 4 The Generous On the flight to ASCS City, a young couple sat in the second row on the left of the first-class cabin.
Both were about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
The man wore a crisp suit, his hair neatly styled, and he exuded a striking, handso charm.
His sharply defined facial features gave him a strong masculine presence, suggesting he was a successful individual.
The woman was dressed fashionably, wearing a tight velvet top, her hair styled in big waves, and sporting an oval face with large, expressive eyes.
However, her eyes carried a chill and helplessness that couldn’t entirely hide her exceptional beauty–undoubtedly, she was a stunning woman.
These two were Jas Brown and Gina Lopez.
That very morning, Gina had taken Jas shopping for a high-end suit and had his hair styled.
Jas now looked truly vibrant, akin to a successful man, which pleased Gina greatly.
She felt confident that bringing such a man ho would likely pose no significant issues.
Gina had also removed her glasses, which she had worn only to obscure her appearance since she wasn’t really nearsighted.
Now that she was going ho, there was no need to wear them anymore.
However, shortly after boarding the plane, Gina furrowed her brows when Jas began fidgeting and touching everything around him like a child.
She took a deep breath and said, “Jas, could you please stop looking around so much?
Haven’t you ever flown before?”
Jas reached to ruffle his hair but suddenly rembered it was freshly styled, so he hastily withdrew his hand and chuckled, “Gina, this is actually my first ti on a plane.
I’m quite nervous.
What if it falls from the sky?”
“Don’t call Gina.
Call Ms.
Lopez,” Gina glared at Jas, her voice low but filled with an undeniable authority.
“Oh right, I’m your boyfriend now, Ms.
Lopez,” Jas grinned, his smile sowhat forced.
“Rember this!
You might get it wrong now, but if you slip up at my house, hmph!”
“Gina,” Jas corrected himself under her piercing gaze, just about to add “Ms.” but catching himself, “This role reversal is just too much.
Yesterday I was just a security guard at your company, and today I’m your boyfriend.
You’ve got to give so ti to adjust.”
“You only have the duration of this flight, and by the way, in terms of safety, airplanes are the safest form of transportation.
You don’t need to keep being nervous.”
“Oh, well…
I’ll try my best,” Jas still seed tense, his response clearly half-hearted.
Gina had been so focused on her career that she hadn’t had a boyfriend until now.
The past couple of years, going ho for the New Year had been alright, but recently her parents and relatives frequently asked about her personal life, much to her annoyance.
She had no plans to find a boyfriend before she was thirty, but her parents disagreed.
Before she returned ho, they had already set her up with several prospects for arranged dates.
This was exactly what Gina dreaded.
The thought of two complete strangers suddenly coming together with the intent of dating seed like torture.
Thus, on a friend’s advice, she had asked Jas to pretend to be her boyfriend, which would spare her a lot of trouble.
But after boarding the plane, Gina was frustrated.
Jas, who seed like a total novice to the ways of the world and hadn’t ever flown before, asked so embarrassingly naive questions, which made her quite dissatisfied.
However, finding soone else now was too late, so she had no choice but to try and coach him as best she could.
If he could just help her get through the New Year holidays, that would be enough.
Jas knew Gina was unhappy, and he found it secretly amusing.
Among many things, Jas, a forr SSUP Country Super Special Forces Soldier, had plenty of experience with even military helicopters.
His pretense of ignorance was simply to fit his role as a security guard.
“Go through these papers again; make sure not to forget,” Gina handed him so docunts that she had specifically prepared the night before.
Jas took them, glanced over, and couldn’t help but grimace, “There’s so much.
How long will it take to morize all this?”
“You don’t have to morize it all, but you at least need to get familiar.
The first page is about my parents and my sister; go through that first.
The rest you can look at tonight.”
“That’s a bit more reasonable,” Jas opened the docunts and started reading.
Many had pursued Gina both at work and elsewhere.
To get her personal details, many had gone to great lengths; however, Gina, seeking to avoid unnecessary trouble, rarely shared her information.
Now, only her employnt history was known to outsiders; other details remained largely unknown to the public.
But now she had no choice but to let Jas, the very person she was trying to avoid, access this information.
Feeling upset, Jas turned to look at her, his gaze inadvertently straying to her chest, causing Gina to frown imdiately, “Behave more decently.
None of that sly sneaking around.”
“Oh…
Let look again,” Jas turned his head once more, his gaze still fixed on her chest.
“You…” Gina felt a strong urge to tear him apart—never before had soone spoken to her so shalessly.
“Don’t get mad.
I’m just trying to adjust, right?
You said I need to pretend to be your boyfriend, and we have to be convincing for your parents.
So, naturally, being familiar with your figure is essential, isn’t it?”
This left Gina speechless, and she huffed, “Have you ever heard of a gentleman?”
“I know, but do you think I could convincingly play such a gentleman without giving myself away?”
“That…” Gina’s chest heaved in frustration, finally relenting, “Alright, as long as you don’t expose us, I can tolerate it.”
“Ha, I’m not taking advantage of you.
I’m rely preparing for the challenge of impressing your tough mother-in-law.
Better to be overprepared so it might be easier later.”
“Not bad, you’re not as foolish as I thought.”
Gina turned to look at Jas, her eyes holding a trace of admiration.
“Thanks, Gina, for the complint.
I’ll make sure to do even better,” Jas bead, visibly thrilled like soone who had just received praise from their superior.
