Chapter 5: The CEO's Personal Secretary with a Maxim of Contrast (5)



The next day, Gu Yanchuan had prepared breakfast and sat at the table, dressed neatly.

After waiting for a long time without any movement from the person in the room, the man showed no impatience whatsoever. Instead, he finished eating, left a note, and went to the company.

Everyone in the company felt that President Gu was in an exceptionally good mood today, no longer the cold and unapproachable person he used to be.

A gossipy employee asked someone in the president's office, "What good news has President Gu had today? Has the iron tree finally blossomed?"

To everyone's surprise, the people in the president's office also shook their heads, looking completely bewildered: "I don't know, but I think you can bring over the documents that you usually find difficult and get them signed while President Gu is in a good mood."

The man gave him a thumbs up: "It has to be you." Then he quickly went to find the documents.

On the two-meter-wide bed, Shen Muqing jumped up suddenly, shouting, "Damn it, I'm late for work."

"Damn it, he doesn't even have any clothes, and why didn't he wake me up?"

Shen Muqing hurriedly tidied herself up, intending to go home first, but then noticed that breakfast had already been prepared on the table.

She looked around and realized that the scoundrel had gone to work.

So she sat down without any hesitation, since she was already late anyway, it wouldn't make a difference if she had a meal.

A note on the table caught Shen Muqing's eye: "There's porridge in the pot. You're off for the day. There are clothes for you in the closet. See you tonight." It was brief yet detailed, and the handwriting on the paper was as elegant and domineering as its owner.

"You're quite considerate." Seeing that no one was around, Shen Muqing began to inspect the residence. It was boring and deserted, that was her assessment.

Back in the bedroom, I opened the wardrobe and was greeted by clothes with clearly defined lines.

Half of it was clearly men's clothing, and the other half was colorful women's clothing.

"Oh ho, what a scumbag, he actually has so many women's clothes at home."

Shen Muqing stroked her chin. "Something's not right. This man is acting strangely." It's like he's after her.

My lips are a little sore today. Could it be because I haven't been drinking enough water?

Shen Muqing grabbed a piece of clothing that fit perfectly and then slipped back to her little nest.

In a 200-square-meter office on the top floor of the company, Gu Yanchuan guessed that Shen Muqing had woken up soon, so he turned on his phone to check the home security camera and looked for her.

After looking around, she didn't see a single person. Gu Yanchuan raised an eyebrow; it would be out of character for her to see someone.

Although Shen Muqing wasn't at the company, he was chatting enthusiastically with Su Mo on his phone.

How is Huanhuan doing?

"Qingqing, Xu Che is very considerate to me. He even thoughtfully told me that we're not married yet, and sleeping in the same room wouldn't be good for me. His mother is also very kind to me."

Shen Muqing sighed, confirming that the female lead was undoubtedly a love-struck fool. She typed a few words: "Time will tell."

"Qingqing, I think we still have a chance."

"Whatever makes you happy."

"I'm very happy right now."

"......"

"Qingqing, I have to go to work now, I can't slack off anymore."

Shen Muqing sent a "Go ahead" emoji, ending the chat.

"Code 000, call code 000"

.........

The response to Shen Muqing's question was, unsurprisingly, silence. Shen Muqing thought to herself: Then don't blame her for being heartless. The male lead of this world is simply not good enough for the female lead, so she's going to... hehehehe.

Time flies when you don't have to go to work. Shen Muqing was half asleep on the sofa when a cell phone rang and woke her up.

She answered the phone: "Hello, who is this?"

A familiar male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Qingqing, it's me."

"Mr. Gu? What brings you here?"

"I'll pick you up for dinner."

Shen Muqing really didn't understand what Gu Yanchuan was trying to do, and how he had her phone number.

"No need, Mr. Gu, I've already eaten at home." Shen Muqing politely declined, but to her surprise, the other party said, "Qingqing, I can't eat dinner without you." This blocked Shen Muqing's path of resolutely not going.

Whether the man deliberately lowered his voice or deliberately dragged it out, it sounded like he was being coquettish.

Shen Muqing awkwardly touched her hair, thought for a moment and then said, "It's too late, I'd better not go out."

She, Shen Muqing, began to reject male advances.

The other party didn't say anything more, so Shen Muqing immediately hung up the phone, taking the silence as a sign of agreement.

Not long after, Shen Muqing's doorbell rang, and she opened the door without thinking much about it.

Standing outside the door was Gu Yanchuan, whom she had just spoken to on the phone. Shen Muqing felt a sense of foreboding as soon as she saw who it was and instinctively tried to close the door.

Gu Yanchuan anticipated her movements, blocked her with his large hand, and stood outside the door looking at Shen Muqing. The implication was clear: she should come to dinner with him.

"Mr. Gu, what a coincidence! What are you doing here?"

"Unfortunately, I came here to find you."

Shen Muqing gave an awkward laugh as a polite gesture: "Really? That's really unfortunate." Shen Muqing felt like crying.

Gu Yanchuan corrected her way of addressing her: "Qingqing, given our relationship, you don't need to be so formal during our private time."

Upon hearing this, Shen Muqing exclaimed, "President Gu, what is our relationship? Aren't we just superiors and subordinates?"

"It's because we slept together for two nights."

Shen Muqing quickly covered Gu Yanchuan's mouth and said in a panic, "Don't talk nonsense. We're completely innocent. What do you mean by 'sleeping together for two nights'? You sleep in your room and I sleep in mine. At most, it's called staying over. Do you understand?"

Gu Yanchuan did not dodge Shen Muqing's actions. Instead, he gently pulled her into his arms, his deep eyes looking at her as if to say, "Whatever you say goes."

Shen Muqing also felt that the action was too ambiguous, so she let go of his hand, stepped back, and said helplessly, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"I want Qingqing to have dinner with me."

"I'm not hungry." As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Muqing's stomach growled twice, and at that moment she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

It would be impolite to refuse again, so I said, "Let's go."

On the way, Gu Yanchuan wanted to hold Shen Muqing's hand, but Shen Muqing said, "Gu Yanchuan, we are not in a romantic relationship now, so we can't hold hands."

"When can we hold hands?"

This puzzled Shen Muqing. She was there to complete a mission and bring the male and female leads together, not to fall in love.

"Anyway, not now."

Thanks to Gu Yanchuan, Shen Muqing had never eaten at such a luxurious restaurant in her previous life. This was fantastic.

On the way back, Shen Muqing looked out the window and realized that the scenery was not the way back to her home. She turned her head and said, "Gu Yanchuan, I want to go back to my own home."

"My home is your home."

Shen Muqing felt helpless in the face of this; she was no match for Gu Yanchuan, who was poisonous, and extremely poisonous at that.

But she retorted, "Why isn't my house your house? I can sleep at your house, so why can't you sleep at mine?"

"good."

By the time Shen Muqing realized what was happening, the car was already heading towards her house. She didn't know what she had just said; she was sure Gu Yanchuan had drugged her.

Shen Muqing was both angry and red-faced. She gave up resisting completely and let him be, as long as it didn't affect her mission.
