Chapter 424 Extra - Office Romances Not Allowed
The elevator stopped briefly on the first floor, and many people outside saw the two figures side by side inside the elevator before it descended to the parking lot on the second basement level.
When the car drove out, more than one colleague saw Xiao Miao sitting in the passenger seat of boss Chen Song.
So the news spread throughout the entire company in less than ten minutes.
So how did Xiao Miao manage to win over our icy-cold big boss?
[Perhaps... adorably silly?]
No wonder the boss ignores all the beautiful women in the company; he likes slightly chubby girls… We all failed because we're too thin.
Does this mean I should gain weight?
My goodness, the big boss's aesthetic sense is truly extraordinary, and his taste is unlike anyone else's.
[Haha, I guess the only way to win over the CEO these days is to use some unique talents, like... eating like a glutton?]
I always thought Xiao Miao was innocent and adorable, but it turns out she's the real winner in life!
There are no truly innocent and adorable people in this world. Anyone who seems innocent and adorable is 100% faking it! It just shows how good their acting is!
[Brilliant, absolutely brilliant, but I think... she's probably just being played, and she'll be crying one day sooner or later.]
[No man would like her, right? To put it nicely, she's chubby and cute; to put it bluntly, she's stupid.]
[...]
As the discussion gradually turned against Xiao Miao, the ladies in the secretariat took the initiative to intervene and protect her.
[Do you have some misunderstanding about chubby girls? What's wrong with our little Miao being a bit chubby? Did she eat your rice?]
[What business is it of yours who President Chen and President Song like? Besides, is there anything wrong with Xiao Miao, as a member of the secretariat, appearing in the elevator with President Chen and President Song? Couldn't it be official business? Your thinking is too filthy!]
[You're all talking badly about Xiaomiao, I'm writing you all down in my little notebook!]
Although they all refuted the rumors, the gossip in the group temporarily subsided, but everyone knew that these rumors were just like that, they would definitely continue to spread.
They could only silently pray that the seedlings would grow strong enough.
...
As they approached Tianfu Villa, Xiao Miao received a message from a colleague in the secretariat: "[Miao, don't ride in the boss's car so casually anymore. People will gossip if they see you."]
Xiao Miao paused for a moment, then surprisingly complied for the first time: "Okay."
She knew that all her friends were good to her.
Besides, she didn't like riding in Chen Song's car; it was too boring.
She didn't say a word the whole way. She listened to music, but it was opera, which she couldn't understand!
This person was actually listening to opera in the car.
It's incredibly boring.
After parking the car, Xiao Miao hurriedly said thank you, immediately unbuckled her seatbelt, jumped out of the car, and ran towards the door as if fleeing.
Chen Song frowned. Was he a monster?
Was it worth it for her to run away like that?
...
As soon as Xiao Miao entered the house, she went straight to Ye Qingning and Jian Yan. Then she ate. The various delicacies of Kuncheng suited her taste very well. She ate the sweet flower cakes while saying.
"In short, pack some for me later, I'll have it as a late-night snack."
Jian Yan smiled and said, "It's all yours."
Xiao Miao smiled and said, "Hehehe, thank you, my sisters."
Just as she was enjoying her meal, Chen Song entered the room. Ye Qingning and Jian Yan hurriedly greeted him, but Xiao Miao continued to eat with relish.
Chen Song nodded slightly, his gaze lingering on Xiao Miao for a moment. He felt that the clothes and the figure from behind looked strangely familiar...
However, he only passed by briefly before quickly heading towards Lin Feiyan and Chen Chu, whereupon a lively conversation ensued.
...
Lunch was naturally plentiful, and Xiao Miao focused on eating while chatting with Ye Qingning and Jian Yan. Of course, she had no time to pay attention to Chen Song, but Chen Song did glance at her a couple of times.
I always feel a warm feeling in my heart.
If only Ah Shi had the same appetite as her, he wouldn't have to worry about her not having enough to eat.
During the meal, when the topic of Jian Yan and Chen Chu's marriage came up, Chen Chu said with a proud look: "I have successfully won over Jian Yan's family. The initial plan is to get engaged after the spring. At that time, you will all be my family and will be in attendance."
"No problem," Lin Feiyan and Chen Song both agreed.
Ye Qingning poked Jian Yan: "You proposed?"
Jian Yan shook his head: "No."
“You can’t marry her.” Ye Qingning looked at Chen Chu: “Chen Chu, you won’t let her go unless you propose. An engagement won’t work either.”
Chen Chu smiled and looked at Jian Yan: "Okay, I've got it."
Jian Yan looked up and met his gaze. The man's deep eyes were full of mature wisdom and tender affection, which put her at ease.
She laughed and said, "Then hurry up, I'm getting impatient."
Xiao Miao looked on with envy: "I still have a bridesmaid spot, I'll be a bridesmaid again!"
“Okay.” Jian Yan turned to look at her: “On the condition that you don’t get married before me, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll be your bridesmaid first.”
Xiao Miao's face flushed red, but she didn't forget to stuff a piece of shredded pork with sweet bean sauce into her mouth: "What are you saying? I don't even have a boyfriend yet!"
Ye Qingning laughed: "It's okay, I'll introduce you. I know a lot of handsome guys!"
Xiao Miao blinked: "Okay, okay."
Chen Song coughed lightly: "There are plenty of handsome guys in Huanyu Group, aren't there? Are you so picky that you have to go look for someone outside?"
Xiao Miao looked up at him and casually retorted, "Boss, haven't you read the employee handbook? Office romances are not allowed in our company!"
