Chapter 330 Fu Beichen, Something's Wrong with You

In the end, Fu Beichen put his arm around Gu Xingnian and went straight into the mall's top-of-the-line men's clothing store.

Gu Xingnian had no chance to give Sheng Tingxiao a choice.

Fu Beichen immediately became attached to her.

"Honey, come and take a look at this suit."

He strode over to the area displaying the latest styles, took down a dark gray handmade suit, and held it up in front of the mirror.

He has a classic inverted triangle physique, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his suit is stretched into a perfect curve by him.

"How is it?" he asked her, turning his head to look at her, his eyes and brows full of anticipation.

Before Gu Xingnian could speak, he took out another set.

"This blue one is also nice; it seems to suit my skin tone better."

He handed her the clothes, saying, "Hold this for me, I'll go try it on."

Before she could react, she had already entered the fitting room.

Sheng Tingxiao and his mother followed him in and stood not far away, their expressions quite different.

Soon, Fu Beichen came out.

He didn't button his shirt, leaving it open to reveal a high-quality white shirt underneath. He tugged at the collar.

"Tie, honey, which one do you think goes with this?"

He pointed to an entire wall of ties and demanded it with an air of self-righteousness.

Gu Xingnian was a little confused by his actions.

She patiently walked over and pointed to a dark silver-gray pattern.

"This one suits me better."

"No, you have to bring it over and tie it on for me so I can see the effect."

Fu Beichen stood in front of the mirror, chin slightly raised, looking like he was saying, "Come and serve me."

As soon as he said that, the eyes of several sales assistants in the store lit up, and they all looked at them with expressions of watching the drama unfold.

The mall manager, knowing that President Fu and his wife were coming, had people waiting for them outside the door, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The manager, in particular, was terrified when he saw President Fu's drastically changed personality.

I feel like I did something wrong, and that the boss is here to cause trouble.

Gu Xingnian took a deep breath, took the tie, and stepped forward.

She tiptoed, her fingers looping around his neck, and focused intently on adjusting his tie.

The man's clean, woody scent enveloped her.

Fu Beichen lowered his eyes, looking at her face so close to his, her long eyelashes, and her lips slightly pursed because of her seriousness.

His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

Cufflinks.

He had just finished tying his tie when he spoke again.

“I like blue ones. The pair you gave me is very nice. Do you have any similar ones here? Can you help me choose one?”

"And shoes, we need to get a pair too."

Sheng Tingxiao stood there, watching their intimate interaction as if no one else was around. His face was as dark as could be, and the atmosphere around him was frighteningly tense.

With great difficulty, Gu Xingnian finished serving Fu Beichen from head to toe.

She breathed a sigh of relief and turned to choose an outfit for Sheng Tingxiao.

"Brother, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, his waist suddenly tightened.

Fu Beichen hugged her from behind again, resting his chin on her shoulder, his voice carrying a hint of aggrieved coquettishness.

"Honey, I haven't eaten yet, will you keep me company?"

His clingy behavior made Gu Xingnian's scalp tingle.

He then turned to Sheng Ma and said:

"Mom, I'm so sorry, Niannian has to go out to eat with me in a bit, so I'll have to trouble you to help my older brother choose something."

After saying that, he snapped his fingers at the manager standing next to him.

"Everything Madam Sheng bought today should be put on my tab. You must treat her well."

He paused, his gaze seemingly casually drifting towards Sheng Tingxiao.

"Take good care of Young Master Sheng. Find the most beautiful and professional sales assistant in the store and make sure to choose the most suitable clothes for him."

"If you're not satisfied with the service, you can pack your bags and leave."

That's incredibly provocative.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Fu, please rest assured, I guarantee that Mrs. Sheng and Young Master Sheng will be satisfied."

The manager bowed as he spoke, sweat dripping from his forehead.

After saying that, Fu Beichen didn't linger. He put his arm around the completely frozen Gu Xingnian and strode away.

Stepping out of the mall, the cold wind outside finally brought Gu Xingnian back to her senses.

She stopped and shook off his hand.

"Fu Beichen, something's wrong with you."

"To be honest, what exactly is your purpose today?"

Fu Beichen immediately pressed himself against her again, his tall body slightly bent over, almost hanging on her.

"Wife, you should tell the truth."

His tone was soft and aggrieved.

"After being married for so long, besides giving me a pair of sapphire cufflinks, have you ever seriously chosen a suit or a tie for your husband?"

Gu Xingnian was speechless at his question.

She sneered.

“In the past, I would choose which items to send to the old house, but you always threw them out untouched.”

"President Fu, why should I bother trying to win your favor?"

Thinking of those three years of living alone in an empty house, her mood, which had just calmed down, immediately sank again.

Fu Beichen froze, and the playful smile on his face vanished instantly.

He quickly softened his tone and tried to appease her.

"Niannian, I was blind in the past, I didn't know how to cherish you, but now I have changed."

He took her hand and kissed it.

"From now on, I want Mrs. Fu to take care of all my clothes, food, housing and transportation."

"Because I feel warm when I wear the clothes you chose."

He looked at her intently.

“We are now recognized as a model couple, so you can’t keep bringing up the past.”

Gu Xingnian rolled her eyes at him, and the slight discomfort she felt finally subsided.

"Aren't you hungry? Let's go eat."

"Honey, you're the best! I love you the most!"

Fu Beichen instantly recovered and, after speaking, lowered his head and kissed him.

The kiss was urgent and intense, filled with the preciousness of something lost and then regained.

Gu Xingnian had never seen Fu Beichen so clingy before, and felt that something was wrong with him today.

Fu Beichen smiled and led her into the car, heading towards the restaurant.

He felt a sense of accomplishment whenever he thought of Sheng Tingxiao's stern face.

Do you think you deserve to have his precious wife help you choose clothes?

...

The following day, Sheng Tingxiao joined the company.

The announcement from the HR department the day before had already caused a stir throughout the company. The newly appointed president was none other than Sheng Tingxiao, the heir of the Sheng family.

Before nine o'clock, all the heads of departments of Shengshi Group were already standing at the main entrance, holding their breath and waiting in line.

A black, million-dollar-level business van came to a smooth stop.

The car door opened.

A gleaming custom-made leather shoe emerged first, followed by a long, straight leg encased in suit trousers.

Sheng Tingxiao's tall figure stepped out of the car.

He wore a well-tailored black suit, which accentuated his tall and imposing figure. His impeccably handsome face was expressionless at the moment, yet it exuded an aura of noble dominance that seemed to look down upon the world.

The chill emanating from him made the surrounding air drop several degrees, keeping people at a distance.

Sheng Weiwei gently nudged Lin Xiaoli beside her with her elbow.

Holding a large bouquet of flowers, Lin Xiaoli took a deep breath and had no choice but to bite the bullet and go forward.

"Welcome, Mr. Sheng."

She forced out her brightest professional smile, her sparkling eyes fixed on him.

It's her again?

Sheng Tingxiao's gaze lingered on her briefly before sliding down to the name tag on her chest.

Lin Xiaoli, Public Relations Assistant.

He understood immediately; it turned out to be the girl's assistant.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Tingxiao didn't even bother to lift his hand, his gaze sweeping coldly over the bouquet of flowers.

"Working under me, you don't need to bother with all this fancy stuff."

His voice was flat, yet every word was clear.

"Let the results speak for themselves."

After saying that, he didn't even look at the people around him, and strode straight towards the president's private elevator.

The elevator doors closed, isolating him from the others.

The crowd immediately began to whisper among themselves.

"My God, this young master has such a strong aura, I didn't even dare to breathe just now."

"I felt like I was frozen by his gaze, it was terrifying."

Lin Xiaoli remained frozen in place, feeling her face burning hot.

Being rejected so bluntly in front of the whole company is an extremely unpleasant feeling.

This bouquet was, of course, specially arranged by Sheng Weiwei. It wouldn't hurt to let her make an appearance and become a familiar face.

She just didn't expect that the two of them were already "very close" in private.

Sheng Weiwei walked over, put her arm around Lin Xiaoli's stiff shoulder, and gestured with her chin toward the elevator.

She spoke slowly.

"Tsk, it seems you still need to drink more papaya milk, otherwise, no one will even look at you."

Lin Xiaoli's face flushed even redder, feeling both ashamed and embarrassed.

"Sister Weiwei, I've already embarrassed myself so much, please stop joking with me."

“It’s not shameful.” Sheng Weiwei patted her. “That’s just how he is, cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If you can break through this iceberg, he’ll melt you.”

Lin Xiaoli inwardly groaned.

What a fart.

She will definitely avoid him whenever she sees him in the future.

Suddenly, a terrible thought crept into my mind.

Could it be that he... still holds a grudge from yesterday morning?

He wouldn't take revenge on her for personal reasons and fire her on her first day of work, would he?

Lin Xiaoli was instantly frightened by her own thoughts, her small face filled with unease.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was serious.

Sheng Tingxiao convened all department directors to hear their work reports.

He is indeed a born business genius. Each director only needs to give a brief overview once, and he can quickly grasp the core of the plan and accurately judge its feasibility.

When it was Sheng Weiwei's turn, she stood up and calmly reported on the charity auction plan for the group's 30th anniversary celebration.

After finishing her report, she added, "I've already arranged for the press release regarding your appointment today, and it can be released to the public at any time."

Sheng Tingxiao looked at her; in the past few years, this girl had indeed grown a lot.

He nodded, his tone unusually affirmative.

"Can."

He added, "Adding a lucky draw allows all employees within the group to participate."

"good."

Sheng Weiwei immediately lowered her head and carefully wrote it down in her notebook.

After the meeting ended, everyone filed out, leaving only the two of them in the large conference room.

Sheng Weiwei was stopped by him.

"Girl."

He looked at her, his eyes no longer cold and sharp as before, but filled with gratitude and affection.

"Thank you for your hard work over the years."

Sheng Weiwei's professional expression melted instantly, revealing a bright smile.

"Brother, I've been waiting for you to come back."

She immediately reverted to her mischievous self, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

"From now on, the old man can't just exploit me anymore; you're my shield! That's great!"

Sheng Tingxiao watched her act silly and reached out to ruffle her hair.

"That's a nice idea."

“Brother,” Sheng Weiwei suddenly leaned closer, “what kind of girl do you like? I’ll introduce you to one.”

Sheng Tingxiao raised an eyebrow.

"What? You really can't stand your brother enjoying a couple of days of his free single life?"

He gave her a warning look, "Don't get any bad ideas about me."

Sheng Weiwei ignored him, hugged his arm and gently shook it, starting to act coquettishly.

"Oh, I just want a sister-in-law."

"Knock knock".

A knock came at the door.

Bai Yu pushed open the door and walked in. He immediately saw Sheng Weiwei clinging affectionately to Sheng Tingxiao, holding his arm and acting coquettishly, with a bright smile on her face.

Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat.

When has Sheng Weiwei ever acted so gently and affectionately towards him?

His eyes instantly filled with jealousy.

"Why are you here?" Sheng Weiwei saw him and let go of his hand.

"I've come to discuss a new project with you, brother." Bai Yu's gaze fell on Sheng Tingxiao, his tone respectful.

To put it bluntly, he was just eager to deliver sales figures to his brother-in-law.

Sheng Weiwei wisely said, "Then I'll go out first."

Bai Yu reached out and gently ruffled the top of her hair, his eyes overflowing with tenderness.

“You just got back,” he said, turning to Sheng Tingxiao. “There’s a very grand party tonight. You’d better attend. I’ll introduce you to some newcomers in the industry.”

Sheng Tingxiao gave a curt reply.

"good."

Little did he know that this night would be another night of unbearable heartache for him.

Fu Beichen continued to act silly in front of him, this bastard...
