“A secret is no longer a secret once it’s told. I still hope that one day, out of trust in me, you will tell me your secret.”
Jiang Cheng's words surprised Song Yuwei. She had thought that since he said he knew her secret, he would tell her directly and ask her why she lied.
Isn't this the kind of reaction a normal person would have? But he didn't. Instead, he respected her. Even if she lied to others, he said he wouldn't tell anyone, and he even hoped that one day she would tell him her secret out of trust in him.
She asked, somewhat surprised, "Aren't you curious about why I have such a secret? And why I lied? Also, shouldn't you be curious about why I, a perfectly normal person, pretend to be unable to walk? Doesn't that cause me a lot of trouble? Aren't you even a little bit curious?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng suddenly smiled and said, "Everyone has secrets. Moreover, some of these secrets are due to unavoidable circumstances, while others are due to various reasons. In any case, everyone has the right to tell their own secrets. There's no need to pry into it. If you want to tell, you will naturally do so."
Upon hearing this, Song Yuwei actually had a slight urge to speak up, but how could she tell him?
Should she tell him that she came from another world through the book, or should she tell him that she came to this world just to have some fun and wasn't serious about it? Would saying it like that make him feel uncomfortable?
Just as she was about to say something more, Shen Jin had already heated up the food and came in carrying it.
"President Song, these dishes smell so good! I feel like every bite will make me happy for a long time! I think they are just as good as what you get at restaurants!"
Song Yuwei nodded, then said something into the phone and hung up.
"There are so many dishes, the two of us might not be able to finish them all."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jin said, "Isn't this because your husband loves you so much? He was afraid you'd go hungry, so he cooked enough food for four people and brought it to you. Now our CEO Song won't go hungry. But CEO Song, how did you meet your husband? I'm really curious to know how you met such a wonderful husband who's both elegant and domestic! Please share your experience with me."
She asked with a face full of curiosity, after all, she had just graduated from university and started working, and it was indeed time for her to have a relationship.
She wants to find a guy who's pretty much like that. It sounds like she's fantasizing too much, like she's dreaming, but who can't dream? Who knows, maybe her dream will come true?
Song Yuwei thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's probably just fate that brought us together. There wasn't any particular way we met."
Hearing this, Shen Jin became even more curious, "What kind of fate could bring the two of you together?"
Song Yuwei picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth. Sure enough, the food not only looked delicious, but it also tasted incredibly fragrant.
"If you want to find a boyfriend like that, it's actually quite easy, as long as you're willing to get married early."
Song Yuwei's words were so nonsensical that Shen Jin couldn't understand them at all.
"What do you mean by 'getting married early'? Does that mean you two got together with marriage in mind from the very beginning? Maybe you met through a blind date? I don't think that couples usually go straight to marriage when they're dating, right?"
Song Yuwei nodded. Indeed, her relationship with Jiang Cheng progressed at lightning speed, faster than anyone else's. They got married after only a few meetings.
She never dared to dream of such a thing before.
Just then, there was a knock on the office door. It was Zhang Miaoke, who brought in all the documents that Song Yuwei had asked her to organize.
Seeing them enjoying the delicious food, he felt a little hungry, swallowed hard, and said, "President Song, you two are having a really good meal!"
Song Yuwei nodded without saying anything, but Shen Jin suddenly seemed a little unhappy.
"What's wrong? Don't tell me you haven't eaten yet. I saw you all gathered together up ahead, ordering takeout for others. You can't say you ordered for someone else and haven't eaten yourself, can you?"
Zhang Miaoke touched her ear a little embarrassedly, "Yes, I did order takeout for them, but I didn't eat any myself because I feel I've gained too much weight recently and need to lose some to be healthier! But seeing you guys eating so deliciously, I'm actually quite hungry."
Song Yuwei looked at her and suddenly asked, "But we've already eaten, don't you mind?"
Zhang Miaoke nodded, "Of course, it's just that I picked it up with chopsticks, there's nothing to mind. Besides, you two probably can't eat that much, so let me join you."
She shamelessly pulled out a chair and sat down, an action that opened Shen's eyes. Sometimes she felt that she had never cared much about her reputation or anything like that since she was a child, but seeing Zhang Miaoke like this, she felt like she was showing off her skills in front of Guan Yu.
No matter how shameless she is, she can't compare to Zhang Miaoke. The other person was eating, and before anyone even asked her to sit down and join them, she insisted on eating on her own. She's so shameless.
The three of them started eating. While they were eating, Zhang Miaoke suddenly rolled her eyes and said, "I heard about that contracted artist being framed by his wife, but I never thought our company would be so unlucky as to encounter something like this."
Shen Jin suddenly realized that Zhang Miaoke's visit to the office might be more than just a meal.
She added a piece of food to Song Yuwei's bowl and nodded casually, "Yes, this is really our company's bad luck. It was originally just a matter between the couple, with all sorts of messy extramarital affairs, which was enough of a headache, and then we happened to run into it."
Zhang Miaoke chimed in, "Yes. This reminds me of a few days ago when an artist insisted on signing with our company, saying he was very talented and already had some resources and connections in the entertainment industry. If our company hadn't been willing to sign him, it would have been..."
"Zhang Miaoke, you're not talking about your cousin, are you? I remember your cousin has been to the company quite a few times. I've never heard of him being famous in the entertainment industry. Or is he just making things up to get a contract with our company? After all, these kinds of things can be said casually, and they might not be true."
