The most hardcore official announcement in history
Last night's kiss, filled with out-of-control and possessiveness, was like a deep-sea bomb dropped into a lake, with a powerful aftereffect.
The atmosphere in the entire mansion became extremely subtle the next morning.
With huge dark circles under her eyes, Yu Jinli tiptoed downstairs like a guilty thief.
She originally planned to sneak to the restaurant before Feng Jinxuan got up, have breakfast, and then run away.
Unexpectedly, upon entering the restaurant, I saw the man who was already dressed neatly and sitting in the main seat, leisurely sipping his coffee.
Their eyes met.
The air froze instantly.
The chaotic and embarrassing scenes from last night uncontrollably flooded Yu Jinli's mind.
She felt her cheeks, like a lit match, suddenly burst into flames.
She instinctively wanted to turn around and run away.
"sit down."
The man's voice, with a hint of the huskiness characteristic of early morning, was undeniably authoritative.
Yu Jinli had no choice but to sit down stiffly in the seat furthest away from him.
She lowered her head, pretending to be seriously studying the patterns on the fried eggs in front of her, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Feng Jinxuan looked at her ostrich-like appearance, as if she wanted to bury her head in the plate, and a helpless smile flashed in his eyes.
He put down his coffee cup, cleared his throat, and seemed to want to say something to break the awkward silence.
However, before he could even speak...
Yu Jinli's phone suddenly rang.
It was a video call from Lin Feifei.
Yu Jinli felt like she had grasped a lifeline and quickly answered the call.
"Feifei! Good morning! Have you had breakfast?"
"What are you eating! The fire's already at your eyebrows!" Lin Feifei's face, practically screaming "gossip," appeared on the screen. "Quick! Open Weibo! Your family's iceberg is trending!"
Yu Jinli was taken aback.
She quickly opened Weibo and saw that the top trending topic was a hashtag that would make any stock investor's heart pound.
#President of Feng's Group, suspected of being in a relationship#
The first photo she saw when she clicked on it was a high-definition candid shot taken last night at the entrance of the convention center, showing Feng Jinxuan taking off his suit jacket and draping it over her shoulders.
The photos are very atmospheric.
The man's profile was stern, yet his movements were incredibly gentle.
The girl looked up at him, her eyes filled with tiny starlight.
The scene was full of tension, and the chemistry between the two was off the charts.
The comments section has been completely overrun.
[Ahhh! What an amazing idol drama! Where's the icy CEO we were promised? Is that doting gaze even real?]
Who is this woman? Did she save the galaxy in her past life?
[I'm jealous, but I'm just pretending. No, I'm not pretending, I'm genuinely jealous!]
Yu Jinli's cheeks burned as she looked at the comments.
She stole a glance at the man across from her and found him calmly drinking his coffee, as if he weren't the one stirring up trouble online.
"Boss..." she began hesitantly, "Should we have the public relations department handle this?"
"No need," Feng Jinxuan replied casually. "It's just a fact, what's there to deal with?"
Yu Jinli: "..."
What do you mean by "just the facts"?
What did he mean by that?
Could it be...?
As she was lost in thought, the man stood up and adjusted his cufflinks.
"I'm off to work."
He left those words behind and walked straight out the door.
Yu Jinli was left alone, facing a plate of fried eggs, completely lost in confusion.
...
When Yu Jinli arrived at the company, she noticed that all her colleagues were looking at her differently.
If in the past it was curiosity and jealousy.
So now, it's... a confirmed demonstration of respect for the "boss lady".
Even the receptionist greeted her with an overly sweet voice, "Good morning, madam."
Yu Jinli felt a tingling sensation on her scalp.
She fled into her office as if in a panic, and then never dared to come out again.
At 10 a.m., Assistant Wang knocked on the door and came in to inform her that President Feng was going to hold an emergency high-level video conference and asked her to participate as well.
Yu Jinli believed that the discussion should focus on how to deal with this public opinion crisis.
Clutching her laptop, she walked into the CEO's office with a look of grim determination.
The meeting started on time.
The faces of all the group's directors and above appeared on the holographic projection.
Everyone looked serious, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Feng Jinxuan sat in the main seat, his expression indifferent.
He cleared his throat and spoke slowly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today to announce something very important."
Everyone held their breath, waiting for him to continue.
Yu Jinli also clenched her fists nervously.
Then, she heard the man, in his usual cool, indifferent, and emotionless tone, utter a sentence that was enough to make the entire Feng Group tremble.
“From today onwards,” he said, looking at the camera and clearly announcing, “this lady beside me, Ms. Yu Jinli, will officially be promoted to… my girlfriend, and, legally engaged wife.”
"From now on, all her instructions in the company will be equivalent to my orders."
"Everyone, did you all understand?"
The entire conference room fell into a deathly silence.
On the projection screen, the expressions of all the executives froze, like a world-famous painting that had collectively gone offline.
Assistant Wang stood silently to the side, adjusting his glasses, his merits and fame remaining unseen.
Yu Jinli, on the other hand, was completely petrified on the spot.
Looking at the man's serious, emotionless expression, as if he were announcing a major business decision, she felt her worldview being refreshed once again.
What... what kind of operation is this?
Is this considered... an official announcement?
Which company makes an official announcement in the tone of announcing an acquisition, during a high-level meeting?
That's way too hardcore!
After the meeting, only the two of them remained in the office.
Yu Jinli is still in a state of confusion, wondering "Who am I? Where am I? What happened?"
Feng Jinxuan, however, acted as if nothing had happened, pushing a freshly printed document, still warm from the printer, in front of her.
"Signed."
Yu Jinli looked down and saw a title written in bold black font at the top of the document.
[Girlfriend's Job Responsibilities and Confidentiality Agreement]
she:"……"
She felt her blood pressure was a little high.
With trembling hands, she opened the ten-page agreement.
The terms and conditions inside are so detailed it's outrageous.
From "must get eight hours of sleep every day" to "must engage in outdoor activities more than three times a week".
From "prohibiting the consumption of all junk food" to "having the right to check the other party's mobile phone and bank account at any time".
There is even a clause that states: "When Party A (Feng Jinxuan) is emotionally unstable, Party B (Yu Jinli) is obligated to provide comforting behaviors, including but not limited to 'hugs' and 'kissing'."
Looking at those outrageous and domineering clauses, Yu Jinli felt like she wasn't signing a "girlfriend agreement" but a "contract of servitude."
She looked up at the man in front of her, who had this "I'm doing this for your own good" look on his face, and finally couldn't help but complain:
"Boss, are you sure this is a 'girlfriend' agreement, not a 'pig-raising' agreement?"
Feng Jinxuan looked into her peach blossom eyes, which were slightly wide with shock and glistening with moisture, like two startled fawns. The last bit of regret he had felt for losing control last night vanished.
He reached out and placed a pen on the agreement.
“Sign it,” he said, looking at her with deep eyes and a hint of coaxing in his voice. “From now on, the entire Feng Group will be your pig farm.”
Yu Jinli looked at him, then at the outrageous agreement.
In the end, he still cowardly picked up the pen.
There was no way around it; he gave just too much.
At the end of the agreement, she signed her name in a flamboyant and elegant handwriting.
The moment she signed the papers, she felt as if she were... completely ensnared by this man.
Feng Jinxuan took back the agreement with satisfaction.
He was in a great mood looking at the girl's adorable expression that said, "Even though I signed, I'm still a little annoyed."
He suddenly leaned close and whispered in her ear in an extremely ambiguous voice, a voice only the two of them could hear:
"By the way, now that you're boyfriend and girlfriend..."
"Then... can I apply for reimbursement for that kiss last night?"
