Chapter 59: Xun Sheng watches Xia Cheng's advertisement

After hanging up the phone with Yu Jingyuan, Xia Cheng opened the chat box with Lin Minghe. He had been sending messages very frequently these days, sending emoticons whenever he had something to say or not.

Today, he posted two photos.

One photo shows a white puppy with matted fur that is puffed up like it was struck by a bomb.

The other photo shows a tabby cat with intricate patterns, sitting intelligently on a cushion and looking straight at the camera.

"Do you like dogs or cats?" he asked, "or neither?"

Xia Cheng has no resistance to furry creatures.

She replied, “I like them all!”

"That's great!" Lin Minghe seemed to be standing in front of the screen. "Actually, I have something I want to trouble you with..."

"What's going on?"

"I'm going to another province to participate in a small competition next month. I'm not sure if I can leave them at a pet store, so I'd like to ask you to take care of the cats and dogs at home. Is that okay?"

Xia Cheng was a little embarrassed. It was not that she didn't want to take care of them, but He Qing was allergic to cat hair. Once he inhaled it, he would get rashes all over his body. Xun Mo was also allergic to pet hair, so she couldn't bring her into the Xun family. But if she didn't bring her in, how could she take care of the cats and dogs for Lin Minghe?

She thought of the house Xun Youdong gave her. Although the furniture and decoration were complete, she had never lived in it and there was not even a bar of soap in it.

But only by agreeing can the two people have more opportunities to interact.

Xia Cheng decided to move into her own house next month, and she had to think carefully about how to convince her parents.

"Of course." She agreed readily.

Lin Minghe was overjoyed and sent a few more photos of his pet.

While replying to Lin Minghe, Xia Cheng opened Xun Sheng's chat box again.

"Bring me a cup of coffee." This was the message from Xun Sheng.

I guess someone else gave it to him later, so he didn’t send any message to Xia Cheng.

But Xia Cheng suddenly had an idea.

If she moves out, her parents might not be at ease with what she says, but if Xun Sheng speaks for her, things should be different, right?

She hadn't intended to reply to Xun Sheng, but because of this, she still replied with a heart.

"Brother, I'm not feeling well today so I'm taking a leave. Please let Sister Wen Ya go to the bar."

There was no reply from the other party for a long time, and Xia Cheng did not wait for him. After getting up, brushing his teeth and eating, he made himself a cup of brown sugar water, and sent a message to Chen Kelin while holding a hot water bag on his lower abdomen. Only then did he receive a reply from Xun Sheng.

"Drink more hot water."

Xia Cheng was stunned for a moment.

Is this a sign of concern for her? It's like yin and yang...

Xia Cheng rested for a day, took some painkillers, and finally got through it.

On Tuesday, she went to work and didn't dare wear a short skirt. She put on jeans and suspenders, and a breathable white cardigan on the outside.

For some reason, Xun Sheng still brought her breakfast. Xia Cheng came in a hurry this time and didn't have time to eat. After finishing her breakfast at her workstation, she made a cup of coffee and went to express her gratitude.

Xun Sheng was wearing a light-striped shirt today and a pair of blue-light glasses on his nose. To Xia Cheng's surprise, he was not working, but watching short videos. The music was particularly loud in the office, and his eyes behind the glasses were focused on the screen.

Xia Cheng was so frightened that she almost dropped the coffee. She walked closer and placed the coffee cup steadily on the table.

Xun Sheng had already drunk a cup. He glanced coldly at the coffee she brought him, picked it up and took a sip, frowning.

Then he took out a few sugar cubes from the drawer and added them in, stirring gently, his eyes still fixed on the screen.

"What's the matter?" he asked, holding up his phone.

"I saw the breakfast my brother brought me. Thank you, brother!"

"Breakfast?" Xun Sheng raised his eyes and glanced at her face indifferently. "I didn't bring you any today."

"ah?"

After stirring for a long time, Xun Sheng took another sip and his brows gradually relaxed.

The sweetness is just right.

"Why are you so surprised? Didn't you say that eating too much breakfast makes you fat?"

"Who brought my breakfast?"

"I don't know." Xun Sheng responded coldly.

Xia Cheng had no choice but to leave the office.

She stood there and glanced around, then saw Dong Gao sitting opposite her, smiling at her.

Xia Cheng immediately had the answer in her mind. No wonder she always felt that today's breakfast tasted different from the one at home. It turned out that it was not home-cooked at all.

She bravely asked Dong Gao, "Did you deliver breakfast?"

"Yes, how does it taste?"

After eating it, Xia Cheng reluctantly gave a compliment.

"It tastes good, but I'd better not bring it next time, otherwise people will misunderstand..."

"What misunderstanding?" Dong Gao looked at her. "It shouldn't be a misunderstanding, I really want to pursue you..."

Xia Cheng stayed where she was.

Dong Gao spoke frankly and handed her another cup of fruit tea.

"Since you and Mr. Xun are not in that kind of relationship, can you give me a chance?"

Xia Cheng never expected such careless and straightforward words.

She didn't want the cup of fruit tea that was still cold at all and took a few steps back in embarrassment.

"Well, I can't quite accept office romances, so let's forget it. I didn't know you were the one who sent me breakfast, I'll transfer the money to you..."

Dong Gao was still sitting at his workstation. Seeing that she didn't answer, he simply stood up and put the fruit tea on Xia Cheng's seat opposite him, shrugged indifferently.

"I heard that you're here for an internship during the summer, so you'll be leaving when school starts. That doesn't count as an office romance."

At the same time, Xun Sheng was holding the coffee brought by Xia Cheng, standing in front of the blinds with a calm look on his face. He gently pulled open the blinds with his free hand and looked at Xia Cheng who was talking to Dong Gao. Seeing that she didn't take the other person's things, he smiled to himself, but the next second he saw Dong Gao forcibly stuffing it into her, and his eyelids twitched.

Dong Gao is a very capable young man and he is very good at judging people. If he succeeds in pursuing Xia Cheng, he can avoid at least ten years of detours.

However, some people were not happy.

He looked gravely at the bewildered Xia Cheng.

At the end of a cup of coffee, the unmelted sweetness becomes stronger. Xun Sheng likes this sweet taste, which can make him forget the vortex of pressure he is in for a short time.

He returned to his desk and called the secretariat.

"Let Xia Cheng come over."

Not long after, Xia Cheng knocked on the door again and came in.

Xun Sheng was very satisfied with his act of helping. He believed that even if it was his biological daughter who was found home later, she should not accept such a small favor, a cup of fruit tea. If he was giving a gift to Xia Cheng, he would never have thought of such a shabby thing.

Xia Cheng didn't say anything, staring at Xun Sheng's phone screen.

Even though it was reversed, she could see her own face at a glance.

She took Xun Sheng's phone and stared at the advertisement with some confusion.

The person in charge did say that it would be released soon, but what really puzzled her was why Xun Sheng was watching the advertisement she shot.

While I was thinking, a big hand had already snatched the phone away.

As if he could see what she was thinking, Xun Sheng turned off the screen, and the inexplicable emotions in his heart swelled up like a sponge.

“It’s pushed automatically.”

The familiar music made Xia Cheng suspicious. She thought Xun Sheng had been watching this advertisement since she first came in.

Perhaps knowing that his statement was unconvincing, Xun Sheng lowered his head, his gaze fixed on her soft lips painted with lip gloss.

“When was the commercial filmed?”

"last month......"

"The lipstick color is beautiful."

"Oh? Thank you."

"Give me the link." Xun Sheng said this and grabbed his thigh hard.

Look what he's saying!
