The new work "The Sweet Little Wife of the Domineering Chairman" by the well-known romance author Xiao Xueer has been urgently serialized.
When Xue Cheng heard Guan Nianwei say that this was about the happiness of his father and mother's marriage, he immediately began to conceive the general storyline within a day and prepared the outline. Two days later, he quickly started serializing.
Even Guan Nianwei was impressed by this speed. She wanted Xue Cheng to write as quickly as possible, but she didn't expect Xue Cheng to finish the idea in two days and start a new article on the third day.
He didn't even know his mother was reading his romance novels
Guan Nianwei opened Xue Cheng's new article the day after he posted it. She was sitting on the bus, holding a bunch of plain white chrysanthemums in her arms. Her phone screen stopped at Xue Cheng's new romance novel. After taking a look, she turned off the phone screen in silence, raised her head and looked through the window at the street scene that kept receding.
Today is Qingming Festival. Sanchi gave Guan Nianwei a holiday according to the rules of human holidays, so she wanted to go and see her benefactor who was sleeping underground.
Her mother Guan Hui usually came with her, but she had a cold and fever recently, so Guan Nianwei did not let her come with her and insisted that she stay at home and have a good rest.
The bus soon stopped at her destination. She carried a small white bag containing a thermos cup, picked up the bag containing the things she needed for tomb sweeping, and got off the bus in silence, holding the flowers.
The weather on Qingming Festival is a little chilly. Against the backdrop of the mountains full of tombstones, the coldness in the air seems to seep into the bones of people, making people feel depressed and gloomy, and unable to muster any motivation.
She came to a familiar place, looking at the familiar black tombstone, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes: "Sister, I'm here to see you, how have you been recently?"
She bent down and gently placed the pure white chrysanthemum, which was soaked with her warmth, next to the tombstone. Then she replaced the offerings in front of the tombstone with fresh ones and inserted three incense sticks in the small incense burner.
Unlike other tombstones, the one in front of her did not have a photo, only the date of death and the name - Lin Shengnan.
Guan Nianwei still remembers that this name was chosen by her sister herself. Her sister said that her previous name was Zhaodi, but she didn’t like it and was very rebellious, so she simply changed her name to Shengnan. Whenever someone asked her about it, she would say her name was Shengnan and didn’t care what her family thought.
During the Qingming Festival, many people came to visit the graves. From time to time, a few sad sobs floated into the ears, but most of them were silent, or like Guan Nianwei, they talked to their relatives who no longer existed. Fortunately, there were no people on the tombstones on both sides of her, so she would not be disturbed from talking to Lin Shengnan's tombstone.
Guan Nianwei squatted down and put pieces of paper money with a face value of 100 into the brazier. Looking at the blazing flames, she said softly, "Sister, I'm fine now. I found a good job. Or is it magical?"
Her job is to help her boss find good and evil people to sign contracts and protect them from being disturbed by fierce ghosts. In her company, except for her, everyone is a god, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are magical.
She lowered her voice, as if she was whispering to her sister Shengnan: "It's a real fairy, the kind that can fly."
As she talked to herself, it was as if Lin Shengnan was still alive sitting in front of her. She instantly started talking, and after burning the paper money, she continued chattering to the silent tombstone.
"Mom didn't come today. She has a cold and a fever, so I asked her to rest at home. She asked me to cook her share for you."
"I don't know if there is inflation in the underworld. If you don't have enough money, please send me a dream and I will burn more for you."
"Sister, have you visited the software development department of the underworld? Is their hair okay?"
"Oh, by the way, sister, let me show you something." Guan Nianwei burned the paper money in her hand and took out the thermos cup from her bag as if offering a treasure. "Sister, guess what this is?"
After learning from Xiao Yueyue’s lesson last time, she never put the lid on her thermos cup again. Now she only needs to recite a mantra to use it, eliminating the step of opening the lid and saving a lot of time.
Her question was met with a natural silence, but she was used to this kind of silence and could always take up the conversation herself, whispering, "It's the demon-catching gourd."
She pushed her glasses, the corners of her lips curved, and her smile was pure and innocent: "Sister, didn't you expect this? It's amazing, right?"
"It also has a formula. Although it is embarrassing to recite, I just want to show it to my sister."
After Guan Nianwei finished speaking, she looked around and saw that everyone who came to visit the graves was immersed in their own emotions. After no one noticed her, she cleared her throat, tilted the cup, and whispered again in a slightly reserved tone: "If I call you, will you dare to answer me?"
The bottom of the thermos cup instantly lit up, revealing the golden curse seal once again, looking awe-inspiring.
At the same time, two sharp screams broke through the air. Guan Nianwei was stunned for a moment, and then she saw from the gaps on both sides of Lin Shengnan's tombstone that two groups of black air suddenly floated out from the two tombstones diagonally above, and floated straight towards the mouth of the thermos cup as if being pulled.
After a few seconds, her wrist sank, as if something had suddenly hit the bottom of the thermos. She was stunned, and then her body reacted instinctively, and she quickly took out the cup lid and covered the cup with a confused look on her face.
She lowered her head blankly to look at the thermos in her hand, then raised her head blankly to look at the people who were sweeping the two tombs. They had their backs to her, and seemed to have noticed nothing. Everything was as calm as before.
Guan Nianwei: “….”
It's not such a coincidence, right?
She was silent for a while, then suddenly slapped her forehead. Oh no, she hadn't sucked in someone else's family!
Fortunately, Pan Wu taught her how to get the evil spirit out of the cup - turn the cup upside down, recite the formula again, and the evil spirit will be released.
Just as she was about to do so, she suddenly stopped again, and another doubt arose in her mind.
What if it’s not someone else’s family?
So will she fall or not?
She fell into deep thought. At this moment, the first person she thought of was Dong Yu, and her first reaction was to call her and ask her what she should do.
Although it was very rude to disturb her boss during the holidays, she looked at the thermos cup in her hand, hesitated for three seconds, and said to the tombstone: "Sister, I'm leaving for a while."
Guan Nianwei came to a place under the shade of a tree where few people passed by, called Dong Yu, and without further ado, she told her clearly about how she had accidentally encountered a ghost, and finally asked, "Boss Dong, what should I do?"
Dongyu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is there anyone around you?"
Guan Nianwei checked her surroundings again and said, "No."
Dongyu said, "Okay, wait a minute."
The next second, Dong Yu's voice rang in Guan Nianwei's ears, clear and extremely real: "Give me the demon-catching gourd."
Guan Nianwei was startled out of nowhere and turned around suddenly, only to see Dong Yu wearing a plain silver long skirt with a thin crimson shawl draped over her shoulders. Her long, shiny black hair was casually tied to one side, and her light golden eyes drooped lazily, exuding a thousand kinds of charm that no one dared to offend.
It's really a divine appearance.
Guan Nianwei was distracted for a moment by this beauty attack, then she came to her senses in a hurry and handed over the thermos cup in her hand. She belatedly noticed that the tips of her ears turned slightly red.
Dong Yu didn't notice her reddened ears. He took the thermos and opened it. There were two balls of black ghost energy without any shape inside. He had to let them out so that they could take shape and be easier to question.
So Dong Yu raised his hand and cast a barrier around them to ensure that passers-by could not see them, and then handed the thermos cup to Guan Nianwei again: "Secretary Guan, recite the incantation to release them." His eyes inadvertently swept across the tip of Guan Nianwei's ear, paused, and asked, "Why are Secretary Guan's ears red?"
This is outdoors, why are the secretary's ears still red?
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Guan Nianwei subconsciously covered her ears, her eyes dodged, and she looked embarrassed: "I'm fine."
She blushed again because Dongyu was good-looking - what was going on!
She hunched her shoulders and covered her ears, looking timid, thin and soft, just like a little rabbit.
Dongyu thought that the way she covered her ears was quite cute, but that didn't stop her from teaching her a lesson with a serious face: "Secretary Guan, if you feel unwell, you must tell me. It's not good to delay it for too long."
Guan Nianwei replied guiltily: "I'll remember that. Thank you, Mr. Dong, for your concern."
Dong Yu nodded calmly. Of course she cared about her, and even came to her in person to help her solve the ghost problem, because she thought she was very useful, smart and very careful, and was a very good secretary. She didn't want anything to happen to this capable assistant.
Guan Nianwei rubbed her red ears gently and imperceptibly, as if she wanted to dispel the burning shyness, and then she took the monster-catching thermos cup that Dong Yu handed over.
She turned the cup upside down, but when she was about to recite the formula, she suddenly felt ashamed. She glanced at Dong Yu secretly, and Dong Yu's face was calm and he was waiting for her to release the two ghosts.
She remembered that it would be very tiring for Dongyu to make the trip herself, and she didn't dare to waste her time. She suppressed the shame in her heart, cleared her throat again, and shouted with gritted teeth: "If I call you, will you answer me?"
The golden curse seal at the bottom of the cup lit up again, and the two ghosts fell to the ground with a clang, lying on the ground and trembling.
Dong Yu looked at them for a while, and then said to Guan Nianwei: "Secretary Guan, you don't need to shout out the formula."
Guan Nianwei: “?”
Dongyu: "It's the same if you recite it in your heart."
She didn't expect Guan Nianwei to recite the formula directly through her mouth. Although it is called "formula", in fact, the immortals recite the formula almost in their hearts.
Guan Nianwei: “???”
I was ashamed twice, and you told me that I don't have to be ashamed? ? ?
She wanted to die.
Dongyu observed her reaction and found that she seemed to be unaware of this matter. Then he reached out and gently touched her head and said, "It's okay. I don't blame you."
Secretary Guan is a mortal, so it is normal that he does not understand all the uses of the magic weapons of the gods.
Dong Yu helped Guan Nianwei subdue the two ghosts and asked them if they were the owners of the tomb.
They trembled their almost transparent bodies, and one of them said shrewdly: "Fairy, please understand. We are not harming anyone. We just want to eat the fireworks offerings from mortals!"
The other one responded to it in a more honest way: "Yes, yes!"
Dong Yu also kindly gave Guan Nianwei some popular science information. Some small ghosts would attach themselves to places with incense and feed on offerings from mortals. This situation is very common in the mortal world and it can be said to be normal.
Then Dong Yu asked the two ghosts: "Has the owner of the tomb you depended on been reincarnated?"
The two ghosts suddenly became speechless, stammering and not daring to tell the truth.
Guan Nianwei didn't understand, so Dong Yu told her that people don't reincarnate immediately after death. They need to go through the procedures of the underworld, get a number, and wait for their turn to be reincarnated.
Before reincarnation, they will live in a specially built residential area in the underworld, where life is no different from that in the mortal world, except that the money in circulation is replaced by ghost money. The source of ghost money is from their relatives in the mortal world who burn it for them.
If the tomb owner has been reincarnated, he will no longer receive offerings such as ghost money, and these little ghosts can enjoy the offerings of their descendants on their behalf, which is normal. However, if the tomb owner has not been reincarnated, the behavior of the little ghosts is equivalent to bullying each other, which is no different from robbery.
Guan Nianwei immediately thought of Lin Shengnan.
This time, there are no ghosts attracted to Lin Shengnan’s tombstone, but what about before?
Could it be that the paper money she and her mother burned for Sister Lin was also intercepted by some ghost? Wouldn't Sister Lin be living a hard life in the underworld? !
Guan Nianwei had suffered in her childhood and understood how difficult life was. Now she felt that the two ghosts in front of her were even more hateful. Not to mention Sister Lin, if there were more ghosts like them, what would others do?
The two ghosts immediately started crying, saying how difficult their lives were and how they wanted to live a better life in the residential area. They described themselves as miserably as they could so that Dong Yu and Guan Nianwei would spare them and not send them to the underworld.
Guan Nianwei's brows relaxed when she heard this, and she pushed her glasses up: "Is it so pitiful?"
Dongyu glanced at her.
Seeing that she seemed to be moved with sympathy, the two ghosts quickly seized the opportunity and launched a "misery attack" on her, telling her a bunch of nonsense that sounded as if it were true.
Guan Nianwei nodded as she listened, and after listening she said, "I understand. It's not easy for everyone."
The two ghosts smiled and saw a glimpse of hope.
Then Guan Nianwei reported them to the ghost-catching team of the underworld and sent them away on the spot, without blinking an eye.
Ergui: "???"
How can mortals still deceive ghosts nowadays!!!
Dongyu glanced at her and felt relieved.
Guan Nianwei is a kind person. Dongyu is most worried that she is one of those kind-hearted people who has no principles. Such people will indeed benefit others, but they are also easily exploited and cannot distinguish right from wrong.
Fortunately, Guan Nianwei is not like that. She has her own judgment and will not easily believe in those who play the victim. She understands that if she is wrong, she must accept the punishment.
He is indeed a kind and reassuring child.
Dong Yu raised his hand to untie the barrier, and then he heard Guan Nianwei ask: "Is it possible that you haven't been reincarnated for more than ten years?"
Dongyu thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
It was a very simple answer, with no other information given. But this answer alone was enough to make Guan Nianwei worried.
If Lin Shengnan is still waiting in line in the residential area of the underworld to be reincarnated, then has the paper money that she burned for her in the past reached her safely?
Guan Nianwei would be worried if she didn't think about the money she sent to Lin Shengnan being intercepted by evil ghosts.
Dong Yu looked at her worried face and guessed that she was affected by the two ghosts. After thinking for a while, he said, "If Secretary Guan is worried, I can help you cast a protection spell. With the protection spell, ghosts can't stick to the tombstone."
When Guan Nianwei heard this, a hint of joy instantly jumped up to her eyebrows, her spirits flew high, and she looked at her with smart eyes: "Is it okay, President Dong?"
Dong Yu said indifferently: "It's just a piece of cake."
Guan Nianwei became even happier and almost rushed over to hug her again. Fortunately, she stopped in time when her hand was halfway out, and then retracted her hand awkwardly and embarrassedly.
She has a habit of wanting to hug people around her when she is happy. Her three roommates and Guan Hui are the ones she hugs frequently. Because she is usually very calm and composed, her roommates call this behavior "one of the few enthusiastic things about Guan Guan."
This rare enthusiasm made her feel very embarrassed when facing Dong Yu.
She lowered her head, gently touched her glasses, and explained in a soft voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dong, I-"
"Why didn't Secretary Guan hug me?" Dong Yu interrupted her directly, his voice full of confusion.
Why did Secretary Guan pull her hand back when she clearly wanted to hug me?
Am I scary?
Dongyu: "I don't eat people."
Guan Nianwei was stunned for a few seconds. She had never expected that she would ask such a question directly. After she reacted, she answered her sincerely: "Because you are the eldest princess of the Heavenly Court and the president of the Yunting Group. No matter from which aspect, your status is extremely noble. Not everyone can hug you casually."
If those in high positions want to maintain their dignity, they must first let others learn to keep a distance from them, and only allow others to watch from afar and not approach to offend.
Guan Nianwei understood this principle, and as a competent and qualified secretary, she was also willing to abide by this principle for her boss.
The last time was just an accident, and a hero never brags about his past achievements. It would be great if she could stop it in time this time and make sure there wouldn't be a third time - secretaries who know their mistakes and can correct them are all good secretaries!
Then she heard Dong Yu's laughter, a soft sound, like a feather gently scratching her heart, making her heart tremble.
Dong Yu said, "Well, Secretary Guan is right. Not everyone can hug me."
Guan Nianwei pushed up her glasses.
Thank you boss for acknowledging what I said and not arguing with me.
The next second, she was hugged.
Dong Yu's voice fell lightly into her ears, with a unique tenderness: "But Secretary Guan can."
"Secretary Guan is different from others."
This is Dongyu's embrace, with Dongyu's warmth and Dongyu's pure tenderness at this moment, like the flowing water in the mountain stream. Guan Nianwei was stunned by this tenderness, and her mind exploded in an instant, and the whole world seemed to be left with only the color of white snow.
She didn't expect Dongyu to be willing to hug her, nor did she expect Dongyu to be so gentle to her. This was a completely unexpected gift from God.
——But Secretary Guan can.
——Secretary Guan is different from others.
So what is the difference between Secretary Guan and others?
Guan Nianwei thought of this question in a daze, and asked it unconsciously. When she reacted, her smooth face suddenly flushed with shy pink. She said anxiously, "Please don't mind it. I lost my composure!"
Dongyu placed his hand on the back of her head and stroked it gently.
Secretary Guan’s loss of composure is not common, but it is also cute.
"Secretary Guan is my secretary." Dongyu answered the question very seriously, "So she is different from others."
This answer, rendered by Dong Yu's serious, sincere and gentle attitude, became extremely moving and at the same time so real that it made people want to laugh.
Guan Nianwei laughed and said, "If I'm not your secretary, I'll be the same as others?"
Dongyu asked back very honestly: "Isn't it?"
If she weren't her secretary, she would just be one of the good things she needed to protect, no different from the other good things or evil things she needed to protect.
That's the truth.
And she is now her secretary, a secretary who occupies a certain position in her heart - this is also a fact.
Guan Nianwei smiled and said, "I am honored to be your secretary."
Dong Yu asked, "Then why doesn't Secretary Guan hug me now?"
Now she is hugging her, and her hands are still hanging obediently on both sides, and she is not hugging her back, okay?
Dongyu: "Secretary Guan, please be honest with me."
She was willing to hug Guan Nianwei because she was her secretary, because she was a very kind and lovely person, and because she wanted to hug herself but didn't dare to. She didn't want such a lovely person to behave so restrainedly in front of her - hugging her wouldn't cost her a thing!
But Guan Nianwei said she was honored, but she didn't hug her. Isn't this dishonest?
Guan Nianwei couldn't help but laugh: "I'm sorry, my reaction was too slow, please forgive me."
After she finished speaking, she slowly raised her hand and put it around Dongyu's slender waist, gently and carefully hugging her waist.
Her head was touched twice again, and Dongyu's voice fell into her ears again: "Good girl."
"I forgive you."
Guan Nianwei smiled gently: "Thank you, President Dong, for your magnanimity."
…
Dong Yu's hand stayed on Lin Shengnan's tombstone for a few seconds. Guan Nianwei clearly saw a golden magic like water spreading out from her palm. The water traces meandered down along the black tombstone, and in an instant formed a layer of transparent water film, which completely wrapped the tombstone.
The magic cast by Dong Yushi is invisible to other mortals except her, because she has a destiny with immortals and is destined to be different from others.
Dong Yu took his hand back and looked at Lin Shengnan's tombstone. He felt a little strange. Secretary Guan's father was actually named "Shengnan"? But after thinking about it, he felt that it was nothing. The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. Maybe he chose this name for a special meaning.
Dongyu looked at the tombstones of others and asked, "Is there no photo of Secretary Guan's father?"
Guan Nianwei: “?”
Guan Nianwei was confused: "Why did President Dong suddenly mention my dad?"
Dongyu said as a matter of course: "Because this is your father's tombstone."
Guan Nianwei: “???”
Guan Nianwei glanced at the name on the tombstone and said hesitantly, "Boss Dong, there shouldn't be a man named 'Shengnan'?"
Dong Yu thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily. Men might choose this name to convey a special meaning, such as surpassing themselves?"
Guan Nianwei: “….”
God damn surpass himself!!
