Chapter 7: You're the one she threw away.
Qiao Xu patted her chest, remembering that the new house didn't have security cameras installed yet, and quickly ordered two cameras online.
During lunchtime, Qiao Xu did not see Xu Si'an in the staff canteen.
That makes sense; he's the boss, why would he come to a place like this?
Fang Kexin said, "I feel that President Xu is really good. That old Zhou Bapi was always nitpicking, unlike President Xu, who speaks his mind."
"What was that Zhou Bapi called again?"
Ye Yurou and Qiao Xu said in unison, "I've already told you, what's the point of having you as a secretary?"
During their conversation, Ye Yurou asked Qiao Xu about what happened that morning.
"Xuxu, were you chased by a ghost this morning?"
"Don't even mention it, the bus overturned on my way home from work last night?"
Qiao Xu almost poked the rice off her plate.
"It flipped over?"
Are you hurt?
Qiao Xu shook her head and told them what happened last night.
Ye Yurou and Fang Kexin exchanged a glance; something was amiss.
"Xuxu, tell me honestly, did you and President Xu know each other before?"
"Exactly, why would he crash into your car for no reason?"
Qiao Xu gritted her teeth: "He's just bored out of his mind."
Ye Yurou and Fang Kexin stared wide-eyed and looked around.
Ye Yurou put down her chopsticks: "Goodness, you really dare to say that. You two wouldn't happen to be ex-lovers, would you?"
"Um."
"Holy crap—he's your ex-boyfriend from four years ago?"
Qiao Xu lowered her head and said, "Keep your voice down."
Fang Kexin asked curiously, "Did President Xu compensate you for the car?"
"I've lost money. I don't dare take the BMW; I can't afford it."
Ye Yurou raised an eyebrow: "What's there to be afraid of? If I had such a handsome and rich ex-boyfriend, I could go on a date with him even after we broke up."
Qiao Xu whispered again, "It seems he knows I stole his dog."
Ye Yurou and Fang Kexin simultaneously clasped their hands in a fist salute to her: "Sister, take care."
They had worked with Qiao Xu for four years and had heard from her that her dog was a pet she had taken from her ex-boyfriend when they broke up.
Qiao Xu: ······
She was thinking to herself that she absolutely couldn't let that scumbag find out about the dog theft, otherwise, given the way he messed with her, he might call the police.
During her afternoon nap, perhaps because Xu Si'an's office was next to hers, she couldn't fall asleep even while lying on her desk.
I'm afraid that, like yesterday, I'll dream about him again when I fall asleep.
Damn it!
She's practically plucked all the violets out of the vase.
Before leaving get off work, Qiao Xu received a WeChat message from Xu Si'an.
Xu Si'an: "Come here."
Qiao Xu, who had just turned off her computer, picked up her phone from the table, swiped it, and, with a stern face, mimicked his tone: "Come here..."
"Teasing the dog."
Qiao Xu put her high heels back on, put her phone in her suit pocket, and walked towards the CEO's office next door.
Knock knock knock!
"Enter."
Qiao Xu stood at the door, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open to enter: "President Xu, you wanted to see me?"
Xu Si'an sat in front of the computer screen as if he were having a video conference, and he pointed to the sofa.
Qiao Xu noticed several gift bags on the sofa.
She was confused and could only stand there; she couldn't very well be told to sit on the sofa and wait.
Given Xu Si'an's cunning and malicious nature, and the extent of his resentment and disgust he felt towards her for dumping him, it would be good enough if he didn't make her kneel and wait.
"Hold on."
Seeing that she was standing still, Xu Si'an called to stop the meeting and put it on mute.
"There are clothes on the sofa, pick one and change into it."
Qiao Xu pointed to herself and said, "I'll change?"
"Otherwise what?"
"Hurry up, don't delay things."
Qiao Xu pursed her lips: "Mr. Xu, I think my clothes are fine, there's no need to change."
Xu Si'an turned his handsome face away from the computer screen and sneered, "Are you planning to wear this old maid's business suit to accompany your boss to a dinner party with a big client?"
An old maid? ???
Isn't this the most standard business attire? A shirt, a suit jacket, and a skirt. At least hers is beige. The finance and HR departments all wear black suits; that's what's considered old-fashioned...
What a despicable man.
Is she a virgin...?
"Mr. Xu, I think your sense of style is questionable. Wearing formal attire when meeting clients is the most formal thing to do."
Xu Si'an beckoned to her with his finger, and Qiao Xu took two steps forward and stood on the edge of the desk.
"The meeting ends in five minutes. You can hesitate, but I don't mind helping you and trying them out one by one."
Qiao Xu took two steps back, glaring at him with her beautiful eyes: "You scoundrel."
She picked up several bags from the sofa and headed out: "Stealing my things again?"
Qiao Xu was furious and threw the bag she was holding onto the sofa: "Are you crazy? Didn't you tell me to go change my clothes?"
Xu Si'an smiled maliciously: "There's a restroom inside."
"I'm not used to it," Qiao Xu refused.
Xu Si'an nodded. As he stood up, Qiao Xu immediately resigned herself to her fate, grabbed the bag, and rushed into the lounge.
The man smiled knowingly: "You little coward."
In the lounge, Qiao Xu instinctively locked the door.
After calming her racing heart, she took a closer look at the rest room, which was about the same size as her apartment.
The CEO's lounge used to be filled with a pungent perfume smell, but now it seems different.
A two-meter wardrobe, a 1.8-meter bed, two bedside tables, a bathroom...
It's definitely in the style of Xu Si'an's showroom.
Qiao Xu looked through all the dresses in the bag and finally chose the most ordinary blue floral collar long dress.
As soon as she put on the dress, Qiao Xu reached behind her and struggled to zip it up.
"Open the door."
Her hand trembled, and the zipper got stuck on the edge of her bra. Qiao Xu cursed under her breath.
"Qiao Xu, open the door."
Qiao Xu looked at herself in the mirror, but dared not pull hard, as the chain was too thin.
"I'm changing my clothes."
The man said calmly, "I also need to change my clothes."
"Wait for me..."
"We can't wait, there's no time left."
Click, the sound of the door lock being turned, Xu Si'an pressed down the doorknob.
Seeing Qiao Xu's blue dress, his eyes remained expressionless, but in his heart...
But... is the size wrong?
Why is she covering herself with her clothes?
"What are you doing standing here?"
"Mr. Xu, I'll head out now."
Qiao Xu moved her feet, facing him as she backed away. She needed to go downstairs to ask Kexin and the others to help her pull the chain.
"stop."
"Turn around."
Qiao Xu didn't move, but Xu Si'an took a step forward.
What are you going to do?
"Bang!" He slammed the door shut, and a hand landed on Qiao Xu's shoulder.
Her limbs stiffened: "Xu Si... Mr. Xu, although you are my boss, you can't..."
Qiao Xu felt his fingers touching the zipper on the back of her body.
Xu Si'an glanced down at her.
The next second, her skirt was tugged, and the zipper was pulled up.
"alright."
Qiao Xu's eyes looked somewhat unreal.
Xu Si'an snapped his fingers near her ear: "Assistant Qiao, are you staying here to watch your boss change clothes instead of going out?"
Qiao Xu realized what was happening, grabbed her changed-out business attire, and fled in panic.
Xu Si'an took out a black suit from the closet and then chose a tie from dozens of options that was similar in color to her dress and tied it on.
When he was tying his tie, his hand suddenly stopped.
Ah Si looks so handsome in a suit. After we graduate and get married, I'll get up every morning to tie your tie.
All he could think about was the image of Qiao Xu tying his tie four years ago.
Xu Si'an tightened his tie, his smile mocking: "Stop dreaming, Xu Si'an. You're the one she dumped."
