Chapter 32 Wanting a sugar daddy
Under the threat of the mission, Chi Zhao gently hugged Lin Huai, still feeling a little uncomfortable.
Why would someone make such a request?
Aren't you most afraid of being subjected to unspoken rules?
Lin Huai didn't speak, but quietly closed his eyes in her arms. Being held by her and staying in her house made him feel safe everywhere, as if he would never be bullied again.
Only Chi Zhao was not very happy.
What happened to the hug we were promised?
I've already hugged you, why aren't you letting go!
frivolous, utterly frivolous!
Chi Zhao grumbled to herself, but her actions showed no sign of refusal.
Fearing that Lin Huai would be rejected and break down, her descent into darkness accelerated rapidly.
After an unknown amount of time, the person in her arms opened a pair of beautiful, watery eyes, sat up slightly, pursed her lips, and smiled faintly, "I feel much better. Thank you, Mr. Chi, for being willing to stay with me."
Chi Zhao forced a smile. "Yeah, it's good that you feel much better."
I'm warning you, don't bother me again.
Lin Huai knew that it wasn't good for him to keep clinging to President Chi; it was too unreserved and didn't act like a well-behaved boy at all.
So even though she really wanted to be close to him, she forced herself to let go.
When he released her, Chi Zhao breathed a huge sigh of relief. She didn't think she had sexually harassed anyone, but she suspected Lin Huai of sexually harassing her.
"If you're not scared anymore, go to sleep. Don't stand around outside."
"oh."
Knowing he had disturbed the other person's sleep, Lin Huai obediently replied, "President Chi, go to sleep early, goodnight."
Now you're telling me to go to bed early? Who was it that kept me up in the middle of the night? Ha!
Chi Zhao hurriedly said "Goodnight" and turned her head away very quickly.
The company has been very busy lately, so she cherishes every minute and second she gets to sleep.
Chi Zhao fell asleep as soon as her head hit the bed. It was dark and she didn't look down, so she didn't notice the pretty flesh-colored mole on the other person's ankle.
Lin Huai stood there watching her turn and close the door, a faint smile on his lips and gentle eyes. "President Chi is so cute. She looked a little sulky just now."
Why are you angry? It must be because I disturbed President Chi.
Everything in the dream was too terrible. He dreamed that President Chi did not appear, but the scene of him lying in bed with a woman covered in blood was photographed by the media and posted on the Internet. His reputation plummeted overnight.
Then more investors approached him, concluding from the messy, disheveled photos online that he had lost his virginity and wanted to spend the night with him.
This is the worst nightmare imaginable.
He has no sugar daddy, and in this circle he can only rely on himself. No one protects him, and no one will be wary of him out of respect for anyone else.
But what if he has a sugar daddy?
Can a life filled with constant worry and fear of being subjected to unspoken rules be changed?
Lin Huai's eyes held a faint smile. He glanced one last time at the door beside him, put his arms behind his back, and walked back to his room with the light steps of a little boy.
Even if he's looking for a sugar daddy, he'll only look for someone he likes.
He dreamt all night of having someone to protect him, but only the next day did he realize with some worry that the person he was with disliked him and therefore didn't want to be his sugar daddy.
So annoying, so annoying, so annoying! It's all his fault for being too suspicious and saying those things to President Chi in the first place.
Now even CEO Chi hates him...
Chi Zhao was exhausted from being busy yesterday, so she unconsciously got up much later today. Unexpectedly, as soon as she went downstairs, she smelled the aroma of food.
Having lived in the apocalypse for a long time, she is cautious and not used to being at home with anyone other than her boyfriend, so she lives alone in the house without a nanny or a cook.
If I'm hungry, I'll go out to eat or have the restaurant deliver food, but today...
Chi Zhao walked quickly to the living room.
The man, who looked disheveled and haggard yesterday, had already tidied himself up. He wore a thin shirt, his figure slender and upright. Hearing the noise, his eyes lit up, and he looked at her gently. "President Chi is awake. Dinner is ready. Please come and have something to eat."
For a moment, Chi Zhao was in a daze, even thinking that she had returned to the apocalypse and was living with her boyfriend in a two-bedroom apartment.
Simple yet heartwarming.
She only came to her senses when she looked up and saw Lin Huai's different face.
It's not Yanzhou.
She wasn't in a particularly high mood and nodded slightly.
Lin Huai noticed that President Chi seemed to be in a bad mood, and he felt a little uneasy.
So she didn't dare to say too much to annoy Mr. Chi. She just served him a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, took a small plate, and put on a beautifully fried egg that she had just made, as well as some breakfast that she had bought outside that morning.
"Mr. Chi didn't have much food at home, so I just made a little bit. I was worried it wouldn't be enough, so I went and bought some more. Mr. Chi can just choose what he likes to eat."
"Okay, thank you, thank you for your help."
Chi Zhao's attitude was fairly polite.
The effects of the medicine on Lin Huai's body had long since worn off, and his cheeks had returned to their fair and tender state, which made the touch of pink on them particularly noticeable.
99 happened to pass by and commented, "Oh my, Xiao Huai is blushing from the host's praise."
Chi Zhao sat down, as if he hadn't heard the system's words, and began to drink his porridge.
He was so angry that he glared at her.
Hmph, you clueless host, you'll regret this!
"Mr. Chi, how does it taste?"
Seeing that Chi Zhao had eaten, Lin Huai quickly asked.
Chi Zhao, feeling obligated to praise the food, remarked, "It's delicious, the saltiness is just right."
It suited her taste perfectly; she even suspected that the other person had studied under her husband.
Seeing that she liked it, Lin Huai was relieved.
They also sat down and quietly drank their porridge.
After finishing his porridge, he noticed that President Chi kept glancing at him. Although he didn't say anything, he knew that he had no reason to stay.
With a hint of sadness and reluctance in his eyes, Lin Huai politely stood up and said goodbye in a gentle voice.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Chi, for saving me yesterday."
Chi Zhao nodded reservedly, but fearing that the male supporting character might misunderstand, she added, "I would save others even if something like this happened to them, so you don't need to feel too guilty."
The light in Lin Huai's eyes dimmed slightly.
She bit her pink lips. "Yes, I know. Mr. Chi is a very good person."
Oh, I got friend-zoned.
Lin Huai should have thanked the other party and then left, but...
He hesitated for a moment, and when Chi Zhao saw that he was still there and looked at him in confusion, he slowly handed his phone to the other party. "Mr. Chi, may I have the honor of adding your contact information?"
...
It turns out they wanted to add each other's contact information.
This isn't a big deal; it's true that WeChat is more convenient for them.
Chi Zhao handed over his QR code, and Lin Huai's eyes lit up with joy. He suppressed the smile on his lips, scanned the code with his phone, and then quietly pinned the other person's WeChat account to the top of his chat list.
Then, in a low voice, he asked, "Mr. Chi, is your WeChat ID also your phone number?"
Chi Zhao nodded. "Yes, what's wrong?"
The other person shook their head and muttered, "It's okay, I just need to save it."
"Sure, if you encounter any problems later, you can send me a message or call me, and I'll help you when I see it."
Mr. Chi still needs to help me.
Lin Huai could barely suppress the smile on his lips.
Seeing this, Chi Zhao quickly added, "Not just you, but I'll help anyone who asks for my help!"
Lin Huai nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, I know. President Chi is the best person in the world, the most helpful person."
That sounds so sarcastic and sarcastic.
Chi Zhao looked at the other person suspiciously and offered to take him home.
Lin Huai was certainly willing; he would be happy to have even a little more contact with President Chi.
Chi Zhao returned the person safely, and before the other person could even shyly say goodbye, she jumped into the car and sped away.
Lin Huai: ...
I looked down in disappointment. It seemed like President Chi still disliked me a little.
How can I make President Chi like me a little more?
Chi Zhao thought that after this pressure, the male supporting character should be able to behave himself for a while.
She can finally get some rest.
She messaged her assistant to take a vacation and returned to the villa alone. She lived alone in the entire villa, and she hadn't thought much of it before, but today she suddenly felt something was missing, as if it was too spacious.
Never mind, I'm so sleepy, I'll go to sleep first.
On one hand, she had already put everything out of her mind and fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow; on the other hand, she was still trembling with fear, afraid that her aunt would cause trouble for her later.
Given my aunt's temperament, if Lin Huai is important to her, she definitely won't let it go easily.
Chi Yue wanted to brainwash her aunt, who was always cold and ruthless, so how could she think a male celebrity was important? But... her cold and ruthless aunt hated trouble the most and would never warn her for someone insignificant.
Her cousin, Chi Luoqing, sat to one side, feeling a little guilty but unable to suppress her schadenfreude.
What happened at the Chi family banquet could be kept secret from others, but of course it couldn't be kept from a member of the Chi family. A little inquiry would reveal the truth.
She knew that her aunt was getting close to a male celebrity, but she didn't say anything.
When her cousin used Lin Huai to promote her beloved, she didn't say anything. When she discovered that her cousin wanted Shen Yize to replace Lin Huai, she didn't say anything either, because she also liked Shen Yize.
...
Chi Zhao slept until the afternoon before getting up. When she opened her phone, besides a few work requests from her secretary, there was only a message from Lin Huai saying "Good afternoon" along with a picture of a bland, unappetizing lunch.
It looked so unappetizing that Chi Zhao didn't want to reply, but the system kept bothering her. Left with no other choice, she could only type, "Eat your food properly."
It sounds like you care.
The man who had been shyly waiting with his phone on the other end smiled and said earnestly, "Yes, I will eat well. President Chi, you should also eat on time and take good care of yourself."
She felt that as long as Lin Huai didn't get into any trouble, she should be able to take good care of herself.
Otherwise, you'll worry so much you'll lose your hair.
