Chapter 517: Being Under the Unspoken Rule
Glancing at the people in the living room, she saw the big president holding a teacup, drinking elegantly, observing her living room, sometimes frowning, sometimes pulling the corners of his mouth, and sometimes showing a funny expression.
Is this a joke that her home looks like a pigsty, or a joke that her home looks like a pigsty?
Cheng Xiaoyu had seen all these expressions on her mother's face.
Every time her mother came to her house, she would help her clean the house while showing this speechless expression.
Cheng Xiaoyu washed the dishes, wiped her hands, walked out of the kitchen, looked at the clock on the wall, and said to the people in the living room: "Mr. Shi, it's getting late, isn't it?"
Shi Chenyuan also looked at his watch: "Well, it's so late."
"Yeah!" So why aren't you leaving yet?
Shi Chenyuan looked at Cheng Xiaoyu, "By the way, Assistant Cheng, I'd like to ask for your help with something."
The word "Assistant Cheng" made Cheng Xiaoyu stand up straight.
"Mr. Shi, please speak."
"Can I stay at your house for one night?"
"ha??"
Shi Chenyuan put down his teacup and said, "It's like this. My water heater is broken and I can't take a hot shower. I haven't had time to get someone to repair it yet, but I have to go to the company early tomorrow. Your house is close to the company, so we can go together. It's more convenient that way."
So thoughtful... so well-reasoned...
But it was inappropriate for a single man and a single woman to be in the same room, and Cheng Xiaoyu felt it was inappropriate no matter how she thought about it. He actually said it so naturally.
Cheng Xiaoyu said, "Mr. Shi, isn't there a five-star hotel across from the company? If you go to the hotel, it will be more convenient for you to go to the company tomorrow, right? And it will definitely be more comfortable than where I live."
Shi Chenyuan said, "I've been drinking and can't drive."
"You can call a designated driver!"
"I don't like other people driving my car."
“…”
Cheng Xiaoyu blinked her eyes. Why was the CEO so difficult to please?
After thinking for a moment, she continued, "It's not that I don't want you to stay, it's mainly because my house is a mess. As you can see, there are two rooms, one is mine and the other is a study. There's no bed in the study. If you stay, you'll have to sleep on the sofa. The sofa is so narrow, it's barely enough for me to sleep on. I think that would be a big inconvenience to you."
Shi Chenyuan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll sleep in your bed and you sleep on the sofa?"
Cheng Xiaoyu felt like spitting blood.
"Assistant Cheng, you are so afraid of me staying overnight, do you have any thoughts about me?" Shi Chenyuan teased her with a smile.
The sudden joke caught Cheng Xiaoyu off guard.
Eating for free and sleeping in the bed with someone else, this should be considered as an unspoken rule of the profession, right?
Cheng Xiaoyu was completely convinced. Okay, whatever, let him stay if he wants.
"You're overthinking it. There's no need to say anything. Just stay here."
"Then I'll have to trouble Assistant Cheng." Shi Chenyuan smiled and poured himself another cup of tea.
Cheng Xiaoyu waved her hands and gave a hypocritical smile, but in her heart she was too tired to complain.
He kept calling her Assistant Cheng, as if he was afraid she'd forgotten that he was her boss...
Half an hour later, Cheng Xiaoyu took a shower, changed into pajamas, walked out of the bathroom, and said to the person on the sofa, "Mr. Shi, you can go take a shower now."
As he said this, his face couldn't help but feel hot. They took a shower one after another, and it felt like they were going to do that. Cheng Xiaoyu's dirty little thoughts flashed for a moment.
At the same time, I felt a sense of guilt towards Zhang Shaoqing. I had clearly said that I would send Shi Zong away early, but now, not only did I not send him away, I even let him stay overnight...
I feel that I have sinned even more.
I guess this is what they mean when they say that people have no choice in the workplace.
Shi Chenyuan entered the bathroom and asked, "Assistant Cheng, do you have new towels and bath towels?"
"Yes, wait."
Cheng Xiaoyu brought him a new towel, a disposable toothbrush, and a spare toothbrush cup. There was only one bath towel at home, so she asked Shi Chenyuan to make do with the towel for the time being.
After a while, Shi Chenyuan leaned out of the bathroom and said, "Assistant Cheng."
Cheng Xiaoyu was tidying up the sofa in a depressed mood. After hearing the voice, she put on a smile and came to the "One Hundred Thousand Yuan".
The smile froze immediately because he was already naked!
