12 years ago, the third young miss of the Su family was disfigured by a fire. Her parents, deeming her ill-fated, drove her out of the house.
12 years later, she became a sacrifice for a fami...
Chapter 1947 I am helping you declare your sovereignty, stupid
Cheng Xiaoyu had no appetite to eat. She had already worked hard to be worthy of the 100,000 monthly salary that Mr. Shi gave her. If she was given a raise, she would have to work herself to death to justify her pay.
She asked Shi Chenyuan in surprise, "But why are you giving me a raise when everything is fine?"
And what Shi Chenyuan said next almost made Cheng Xiaoyu burst into tears.
He put down his coffee cup, his face showing the dignity of a superior, and said to her:
"Assistant Cheng works hard and has made rapid progress. Since joining, he has been recognized by many colleagues. He has also assisted me in various aspects of my work and improved my mood. Therefore, I think it is not excessive to give Assistant Cheng a raise."
Cheng Xiaoyu listened to the general praise and recognition and felt that all her previous hard work was not in vain, and those who criticized her were nothing.
She also realized that she was not that bad after all, and that she gradually adapted to this job that she was not good at, became familiar with it, and gained control of it.
But it brightened his mood, what the hell?
Is this taking advantage of her?
"If you don't drink it now, it will get cold." Mr. Shi glanced at the coffee cup on her desk again.
Cheng Xiaoyu stood up and sat next to him, hugged the president's arm, and leaned her face on his shoulder.
Shi Chenyuan looked at her sideways: "So happy?"
She nodded vigorously: "I thought I was always under your special care."
"You deserve it. Don't let your imagination run wild and don't listen to what others say. Got it?"
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded, blinking her eyes and looking at him expectantly, "Mr. Shi, are you happy working beside you?"
He smiled and whispered in her ear, "You can do it anytime... How can I not be happy?"
The words he spoke in a very soft voice were like feathers, touching Cheng Xiaoyu's ears and giving her goose bumps.
Mr. Shi suddenly started talking dirty, and even Cheng Xiaoyu felt powerless to resist.
Just then, a colleague from the design department walked into the coffee shop. Cheng Xiaoyu felt that it was a bit indecent to be with Mr. Shi so much, so she wanted to go back to her seat opposite, but was held down by the shoulders: "Just sit here."
"Aren't you afraid that I will destroy your majestic image?" Cheng Xiaoyu asked with a smile after taking a small bite of cake.
Shi Chenyuan kissed her lips.
Cheng Xiaoyu opened his eyes wide.
Shi Chenyuan left her lips, but didn't leave completely. He pressed his lips against hers and said, "Weren't you jealous just now? I was helping you assert your sovereignty, stupid."
He licked the cream from her lips before sitting up again.
Cheng Xiaoyu covered her pounding heart. Why could this man still make her so excited after being in love for so long?
Looking into the distance again, she saw that the female assistant named Yu Min who had just entered the coffee shop was there. She glanced at her and lowered her head.
His gaze returned to the CEO beside him, "Boss Shi, do you know I'm jealous?"
Shi Chenyuan said "hmm".
"You are too observant..."
I thought his mind was full of work, but I didn't expect him to be able to do two things at once...
"If I can't see that you're almost in a fight with someone, I'd be a fool."
"No, I'm just expressing my opinion normally..."
It was clearly Yu Min who was mocking her for being lazy.
Shi Chenyuan smiled and glanced at her: "But your point just now is very good, and you did a good job. You should be like this in the future. You must be brave enough to express yourself and argue for your reasons."
He did not comment on Yu Min, but through these words, Cheng Xiaoyu understood that Shi Chenyuan saw that she had just been ridiculed and felt sorry for her in his heart, so he publicly supported her.
By doing this, Mr. Shi not only demonstrated his grace but also protected her.
Thinking about it this way, I feel a little more love for the big boss next to me.
As the topic of Yu Min came up, Cheng Xiaoyu told him what he had just heard, that Yu Min had gone to see him and came back with red eyes, and wanted to ask him what was going on.
Shi Chenyuan said, "She didn't come to see me. She must have come to see Linda, probably to ask why she wasn't promoted, because Linda did recommend her to me before."
"So, you've considered making her your chief assistant?"
"No, she's capable and steady, but she's not very smart."
Hearing this, Cheng Xiaoyu was completely relieved. He smiled and said while eating dessert: "That's right, it's not easy to find a secretary like me who is both motivated and smart. You have to cherish me, otherwise I will change jobs if I am unhappy."
Shi Chenyuan rarely followed her words and continued, "Yes, such a lovely secretary changed jobs, and I suffered a great loss."
As he said that, he used his finger to wipe the cream off the corner of her mouth and asked, "Is it delicious?"
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded.
"Give me a taste."
Just as she was about to feed Shi Zong a mouthful of dessert with a spoon, he came over and kissed her on the lips.
Only then did Cheng Xiaoyu realize that this was the way he meant by "feeding a bite".
What's the point of helping her assert her sovereignty? It's obvious that he just wants to show off his affection but he doesn't say it directly...
…
After drinking coffee, Shi Chenyuan went back upstairs to work.
Cheng Xiaoyu went to the supermarket opposite the company to buy some midnight snacks.
When I came back after shopping, it was already dark, but the senior executives of the group had not yet left work today, so the lights on the president's office floor were as bright as usual. Except for the employees of the administrative department, all other departments had not left work.
The marketing department, sales department, design department, etc. are all holding internal department meetings to prepare for tomorrow's exhibition.
After passing several meeting rooms, Cheng Xiaoyu arrived outside the president's office. Just as she was about to push the door open, a woman's voice came from the sofa area next to her: "Xiaoyu."
She turned her head and saw a man and a woman walking towards her.
Looking closely, she saw that both of them were wearing suits and work clothes, the man was wearing black-framed glasses, and the woman was slightly plump. They were the two design department employees who had spoken ill of her in the laboratory in the afternoon.
Seeing their anxious expressions, Cheng Xiaoyu probably guessed why they came.
"What's up?"
The man with glasses stammered, "We...actually we..."
He was not as eloquent as he had been in the afternoon.
The female employee continued his words, saying sincerely, "Actually, we're here to apologize to you. We said some unpleasant things this afternoon, and we hope you won't hold it against us."
The man nodded repeatedly and said, "We don't mean any harm to each other, Xiaoyu, please don't take it to heart."
Cheng Xiaoyu's eyes swept back and forth between the two people's faces. In fact, she almost forgot what happened in the afternoon.
But when they reminded him, Cheng Xiaoyu remembered those unpleasant words again.
They are acting so sincerely now, have they really realized their mistake?
I'm just afraid that she will complain and then lose her job.
Cheng Xiaoyu was too lazy to pay attention to these people, nor did he think of asking Shi Chenyuan to teach these gossipers a lesson. It was not necessary.
"Put more effort on your work in the future."
"Yes, we won't talk nonsense anymore. I'm really sorry." The man apologized sincerely again.
As the man spoke, the door to the CEO's office opened...
