Chapter 42
Feed soup
In the office,
The tightly closed door shut out the noise of the outside world; the world inside belonged only to Jiang Fengyi and Xu Que.
Xu approached step by step, his eyes filled with a smile.
"President Jiang, I heard you were looking for me?"
The way Xu Que called him "General Manager Jiang" took on a more romantic connotation.
Xu stopped a step away from Jiang Fengyi, placed one hand on the edge of Jiang Fengyi's desk, leaned down, and touched Jiang Fengyi's collar with the other hand.
Xu said, "The buttons aren't fastened."
Her fingers, however, slipped beneath her shirt, lingering on her delicate, fair skin. She was particularly drawn to her clearly defined collarbones, her fingertips tracing their contours.
Jiang Fengyi grabbed Xu Que's arm, her voice carrying a warning: "This is the company!"
"I closed the door."
After speaking, Xu turned around and glanced back, seemingly checking if the door was closed properly.
She looked smug: "It's even locked from the inside."
Jiang Fengyi suspected Xu was doing it on purpose: "Why did you lock my office door from the inside?"
"What if someone comes in to report on work and finds the door locked? Wouldn't that be like trying to hide something obvious?"
"But......"
Xu replied seriously, "Can anyone see what we look like right now?"
A woman sat in a chair, her collar slightly open, breathing heavily, the blush on her earlobes spreading down to her collarbone...
Another leaned closer, her mischievous fingertips picking up a strand of hair that had fallen into her clothes. It was unclear whether she had kindly helped to retrieve the hair from her collar, or whether it had fallen into her clothes because of her.
However, neither of these is suitable for being seen by others.
Jiang Fengyi couldn't let the other person act recklessly today: "It's Monday, and I have a lot of things to do..."
"President Jiang, I've been waiting for you too..."
After Xu finished speaking, he looked straight at her.
Jiang Fengyi was burned by the burning gaze and was about to be intoxicated by Xu Que's passion.
No, she has to work!
She grabbed Xu Que's clothes and pulled them down forcefully. The man, who was already bent over, was caught off guard and moved closer to her with her strength.
The distance between the two suddenly closed to only a finger's width.
Just as Xu was about to step back because they were too close, Jiang Fengyi tilted her head forward.
Cool lips touched Xu Que's chin.
With a light, punishing bite, a faint tooth mark immediately appeared on the other person's delicate jaw.
Jiang Fengyi released Xu Que, her face flushed, and warned, "Don't bother me again until I'm done with my work!"
Xu understood the implication: she only needed to wait until Jiang Fengyi finished her work.
She buttoned Jiang Fengyi's shirt all the way up, the pure white fabric completely concealing her delicate collarbone before she withdrew her hand.
"Then I'll wait until you're done."
"General Manager Jiang..."
The last two words rolled off her tongue, uttered softly with a lingering tenderness, leaving the listener with endless imagination.
Xu left quickly, as if he had only come in to see Jiang Fengyi once. Although he was gone, the influence he left behind remained.
Jiang Fengyi tried to ignore her burning earlobes and used work to distract herself.
Xu didn't sit idle either. Some time ago, she visited and inspected many factories and gained a general understanding of the prosthetic products circulating in the market.
The idea in her mind gradually took shape, which made her want to put it into practice.
Since the selection of children's prosthetics is limited, she started a company that focuses on children's prosthetics, which is something she can do for the children in the orphanage.
Xu acted immediately, confirming basic information, preparing relevant materials, and renting office space...
When she got busy, she forgot about the time. When she came to her senses, she realized that it was past the end of the workday. Xu looked up and gazed in the direction of Jiang Fengyi's office.
Jiang Fengyi hasn't come out yet.
Xu stood up, glanced around, and saw that the few colleagues in the office were also packing up to leave.
She brazenly entered Jiang Fengyi's office again.
"Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm not here to bother you, I just came in to remind you to eat."
Jiang Fengyi glanced at the clock; it was indeed lunchtime.
She stretched comfortably with her arms outstretched: "Let's go find a restaurant to eat."
Xu, however, had other thoughts in mind. He casually mentioned, "Why don't we just eat at the company cafeteria? He Shuyi keeps nagging me about how good the cafeteria aunties' cooking is."
"I want to try it."
She actually wanted to show everyone how unusual her relationship with Jiang Fengyi was.
Ever since the two confessed their feelings for each other, Xu couldn't wait for everyone to know that Jiang Fengyi was her wife, and she always secretly looked for opportunities to show their intimacy.
Jiang Fengyi didn't have any preference about where to have lunch. Since Xu wanted to eat in the cafeteria, she said, "Then let's eat in the cafeteria."
When the two entered the company cafeteria, the lunch rush had passed, and there weren't many people inside.
However, Jiang Fengyi's appearance still attracted the attention of many employees, who were curious about why President Jiang was in the cafeteria today, and even more curious about who the person next to her was.
"What a coincidence! I ran into President Jiang while eating in the cafeteria today."
"Is that person next to her an employee of our company? I don't think I've seen her before."
"She's been by President Jiang's side for so long, and you've never seen her even once?"
"Why do she seem so close to President Jiang?"
"Aren't the two of them a little too close? She's practically touching President Jiang's face."
Xu, holding a tray, stood in front of the window and leaned close to Jiang Fengyi's ear to ask her what she wanted to eat.
"Would a normal subordinate treat their superior like this? It's a bit too intimate."
"It might be the angle. It's obvious they're discussing what to eat, so it's normal for them to get close to each other when they talk."
"Has President Jiang always been this kind to his assistant?"
There were many whispers and discussions around, but none of them reached the ears of the person involved.
Xu found a seat and sat down. In front of her were broccoli, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, sweet and sour pork ribs, and a bowl of seaweed soup.
Jiang Fengyi sat opposite her, with braised shrimp, poached chicken, and stir-fried bok choy on her plate.
She was not very talkative while eating; Xu did most of the talking, and she only gave brief replies occasionally.
Xu tried a bite of the sweet and sour pork ribs that He Shuyi had highly recommended. The sweet and sour sauce coated the lean but not dry pork ribs, and when he put them in his mouth, the taste was indeed amazing.
Try this!
She always couldn't help but share delicious food with people she liked, and she pushed the plate of sweet and sour pork ribs in front of Jiang Fengyi.
Under Xu Que's expectant gaze, Jiang Fengyi picked up a piece with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth.
The rich aroma of soy sauce mixed with the fragrance of caramel immediately filled her mouth. With a gentle bite, the meat fell off the bone and rolled on her tongue, still hot and juicy.
"How is it? Is it delicious?"
Jiang Fengyi chewed quickly to cool down, and only had time to answer after it wasn't so hot anymore.
"It's delicious!"
Seeing that she was enjoying her food, Xu picked up a piece as well: "Now I finally understand why He Shuyi loves this dish so much. It really is delicious."
Jiang Fengyi nodded in agreement.
A bit of the rib sauce accidentally got on Jiang Fengyi's lips, and Xu noticed it and reminded her, "The broth?"
What kind of soup?
Seeing that Jiang Fengyi hadn't noticed, Xu naturally reached out and used a napkin to wipe it away for her.
The two were used to being close to each other and didn't realize there was anything wrong with their actions.
This behavior quickly caused an uproar among the other people in the cafeteria.
They didn't show it on their faces, but in reality, everyone took out their phones and discussed it frantically in private.
Company anonymous forum
[At lunchtime, in the cafeteria, did anyone see this?]
Not only did I see it, I also risked my life to take photos.
[Requesting photos]
[Requesting photos]
[Requesting photos]
......
Other employees who were unaware of the facts clicked in and were completely confused.
What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?
Although I didn't understand it either, just wanted to ask for the photo. When will it be released?
Soon, the brave man on the second floor posted the blurry photo.
[Qing Dynasty Image Quality]
Let's get a new phone on the second floor.
The person on the second floor retorted, "Do you know how far away I was when I took these photos? It's good enough that you have photos to show, don't nitpick."
[Hmm? The person in the photo looks somewhat like President Jiang.]
[This must be our company's General Manager Jiang, right? The background is the company cafeteria.]
Who's sitting across from her? Their actions are so intimate; is she wiping President Jiang's mouth?
What's going on? I don't understand. Can someone explain it to me?
Is this President Jiang's girlfriend? Did he specially bring her to the company cafeteria to experience the food?
[An insider revealed that the person sitting opposite President Jiang is a newly recruited assistant who has been highly regarded by President Jiang since joining the company.]
I can tell whether it's appreciation or mere liking.
I also want to have dinner with President Jiang, and I also want to wipe the corner of his mouth for him!
[Wow~ This is so ambiguous, is this some kind of idol drama?]
Another corner of the cafeteria.
While eating, He Shuyi browsed the company forum and soon saw this newly posted thread.
She clicked on it and saw the photos posted by her colleague.
"hiss!"
Wu Qi, who was focused on eating across from her, looked up at her when she heard the noise.
"What's wrong? Did you bite your tongue while eating?"
"No, look at this!"
He Shuyi handed over her phone.
She emphasized, "President Jiang and Xu Que also came to the cafeteria for a meal."
Wu Qi glanced at it and then looked away, saying uncertainly, "Are they planning to go public?"
He Shuyi stammered, her chopsticks trembling: "Public...public?"
"Are they already together?"
Wu Qi pointed at the photo: "Isn't this obvious?"
“I thought…” He Shuyi switched to a different pair of chopsticks, “I thought the two of them were still in the ambiguous stage.”
"That's also possible."
He Shuyi's mind was no longer on eating; she looked around, trying to find President Jiang and Xu Que.
Wu Qi wasn't as gossipy as her; instead, she reminded her of something.
"Aren't you going to eat your ribs?"
"We still need to eat."
He Shuyi picked up her chopsticks, gnawing on a rib while scanning the crowd, keeping an eye on the two figures.
Persistence pays off, and she actually found it.
"Look, look!"
He Shuyi nudged Wu Qi's arm.
"President Jiang and the others are there."
Wu Qi looked in the direction He Shuyi was pointing—
Xu scooped up the soup from his own bowl, blew on it, and fed it to Jiang Fengyi.
