"That young master looks very cute, doesn't he? Is he a little celebrity?"
"No wonder, I thought he looked familiar. By the way, has he been to the company before?"
"It turns out that Mr. Lu likes this. There is always no one around him. I thought he was frigid!"
"No, this kid really looks familiar, but not in the way that a celebrity looks familiar..."
At lunch time, the secretaries in the president's assistant office were in a frenzy. On the surface, they all looked like elite white-collar workers, but secretly their fingers were snapping in the group messages, discussing the major events in their boss' life.
Just now, one of their colleagues who was on a business trip in Brazil risked his life to send a screenshot of a video conference with Lu Xiao to a small group, and it immediately went viral in various small groups in the company.
In the picture, Lu Xiao, who should have been serious in the meeting, had a delicate-looking boy beside him. The boy stood behind him and carefully massaged Lu Xiao's neck acupuncture points. Lu Xiao closed his eyes, and his face was relaxed and gentle, which they had never seen before. He looked gentle and amiable.
The employees of Yunxiao were very shocked. How could Mr. Lu show such a non-aggressive expression?! I heard that the meeting ended halfway through!
"Assistant Min is here!"
Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and focused on eating their lunch. Out of the corner of their eyes, they saw Min Tianxing, the chief special assistant to the president, push open the door and come in.
Special Assistant Min glanced at everyone indifferently. The assistants felt uneasy and finally waited until Min Tianxing returned to his solitary office.
The boss is back, and they have calmed down a lot. But as for the identity of the boy in the boss's room, their various small groups are still frantically flashing new information and digging for the truth.

Shen Ci only had one hand to use, but he still used all his strength to help Lu Xiao press and press. Waves of numbness spread from Lu Xiao's trembling neck to his heart, but Lu Xiao was reluctant to do so, so Shen Ci pulled away after pressing a few times.
"I've just started!" Shen Ci protested.
Lu Xiao smiled: "Press it later. Are you hungry?"
He took the tablet and handed it to Shen Ci. On the screen was a simple ordering interface with a wide range of dishes from various brands.
This is Lu Xiao’s special food ordering app, which will place orders directly to his dedicated life assistant.
Shen Ci rubbed his hands excitedly in his heart. In fact, there was another reason why he went out every day. It was because the food at home was too plain! But when he went out, he could always get all kinds of delicious food!
Yesterday he went out with Wei Shuo to eat hot pot and had a great time.
Fried crayfish, grilled fish with Sichuan peppercorns, fried noodles, iced pork... Shen Ci's mouth was watering as he found a large menu of "must-haves for young people's gatherings" and quickly ordered a large piece.
Lu Xiao reached out and calmly cancelled all of them. He then clicked into the menu of "Nutritional Vitality Meals for Pregnant Women" and selected white sauce salmon, lotus root and chicken porridge, and crispy baked mashed potatoes...
Shen Ci: “???”
Lu Xiao looked innocent: "You are a patient, this menu is the most suitable."
After he quickly ordered, he placed the order directly, without Shen Ci even having a chance to resist.
Shen Ci was furious: "Uncle, you are kidding me!"
Lu Xiao smiled in a rare good mood and reached out to touch Shen Ci's soft hair: "I will compensate you well in the future. Just bear with it until you recover."
Shen Ci angrily asked how to compensate him, and Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "How about traveling?"
"It's just the two of us."

"Here, hold this carefully."
Sister Qing threw a stack of information behind her. Bai Ziwei took it in a panic and rolled his eyes at Sister Qing's back.
How dare a small-time agent like him turn his face away from the destined protagonist?
Bai Ziwei cursed in his heart for a long time before he obediently put away the hospital records that Sister Qing threw to him.
He has been staying in the hospital recently, and no one comes to see him except Sister Qing every day. He can't bully the scumbag or slap his face to seduce his ex, nor can he advance his career in the entertainment industry. What's the point of this hospital plot?
He simply asked to be discharged. To Bai Ziwei's surprise, Sister Qing seemed to be even more anxious than he was. She was delighted when she heard that he was going to be discharged, and she completed all the formalities in less than an hour.
It’s a bit strange to say, but at the beginning Sister Qing took care of him meticulously just like in the original book.
But later on, the attitude became more and more perfunctory and polite, and now it has turned into this extremely bad attitude.
But this kind of small role is nothing. People who achieve great things do not care about small details. Bai Ziwei proudly imagined his future ambition of dominating the entire book, and he felt happier and happier.
As soon as he got back to his rented room, he immediately took out his phone and started looking at trending searches. Sister Qing said that the company bought trending searches for his accident and discharge from the hospital, so they should have topped the list by now, right?
However, the number one trending search was "Zongzi Shen Ci was recognized at Yunxiao headquarters". Bai Ziwei refreshed the search list several times without giving up, searching the trending search list word by word, and finally found the seven words "Bai Ziwei was discharged from hospital after car accident" on the 48th trending search.
Bai Ziwei: “…”
Also a newcomer, he ranked 48th on the trending searches for car accidents, but ranked 1st for being recognized by fans when just going out? !
Bai Ziwei took several deep breaths and tried hard to resist the urge to throw his phone.
Finally, he couldn't help it and banged his pillow against the wall and yelled several times to vent his dissatisfaction. As a result, a burly male voice next door immediately yelled "Do you want to die?!"
Bai Ziwei was so frightened that he immediately fell silent. After a while, he suddenly remembered: I am the male protagonist, the master of this world, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Bai Ziwei immediately became arrogant, and started to curse at the people next door in a low voice for a long time, and then started to call Sister Qing non-stop.
The line was busy for several times. As soon as Bai Ziwei answered the phone, she shouted impatiently: "Hey Sister Qing, what are you doing? Why aren't you answering the phone? Why is my trending search so low? It's unscientific! Shen Ci is the culprit who caused me to go to the hospital. Why is he so popular now? Any trivial matter can be the number one trending search."
Sister Qing was very dissatisfied: "Bai Ziwei, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't just slander the artists of the same period in the company. He has nothing to do with your car accident! As for the arrangement of the hot search, these are all instructions and arrangements from above. If you are not satisfied, go and talk to the manager. There is nothing I can do."
Bai Ziwei was dumbfounded. It was actually arranged by the company?
Is he playing the game of suppressing before promoting, planning to hold back a big wave? After all, he is the protagonist, and the world cannot resist him anyway.
Bai Ziwei touched his chin and nodded firmly.
His voice became heated again: "Sister Qing, what announcement do I have recently? I've been idle for so long, I'm really frustrated!"
Sister Qing: "Let me take a look... Hmm, it seems like there's nothing to do recently. The last announcement is a performance at the company's annual meeting at the end of the year. Remember to prepare well."
End of the year?
More than a month later!
Bai Ziwei almost suffocated and was about to start cursing when he realized the call had been hung up.
Bai Ziwei: “…”
He once again failed to control his strength and noise, and banged on the wall and howled like a ghost to vent his anger, which directly attracted the big brother next door to bang on the door.
Bai Ziwei had no place to vent his temper, so he opened the door without thinking and with an angry look on his face.
…
Half an hour later, he was squatting at home with a bruised face and nose applying medicine to himself, regretting it too late. Bai Ziwei was crying and applying the medicine, and this time he was not pretending, he was really crying in pain.
Those who bullied him will pay him back double in the future!
Like Sister Qing, those idiots who made decisions for Yunxiao Entertainment, and the mentally retarded person who just beat him, all will have to kneel before him and cry for mercy in the future!
Oh, and add that damn Shen Ci! How can a little cannon fodder be so active?
Bai Ziwei's expression was gloomy and twisted. He endured the pain in the corner of his mouth and turned on his phone again. He found a phone number that he was not familiar with and pressed the dial button...

After Shen Ci was forced to finish the "Nutrition and Vitality for Pregnant Women" meal with tears in her eyes, she lay on the sofa playing with her mobile phone and actually fell asleep in a daze.
After the interrupted video conference in the morning, Lu Xiao looked up and saw Shen Ci sleeping carefree. His fair and delicate cheeks were a little red from sleep, and there was an unknown transparent liquid hanging from the corners of his slightly open mouth. He was sleeping soundly and defenselessly.
Lu Xiao got up and went to the lounge to get a blanket to cover Shen Ci.
He stood beside the sofa, looking down at the sleeping Shen Ci. His eyes gradually darkened, and his aggressive gaze could finally roam over Shen Ci without restraint.
The bright pink lips looked so soft that Lu Xiaoqing couldn't help but bend down, put his fingertips on Shen Ci's lips and gently stroked them.
He was a little absent-minded. This morning, when he was talking to Yunxiao Biological's technical partner Wei Moshan on the phone, he casually mentioned "my son's friend" and asked him sensitively.
Only then did they know that Shen Ci had secretly asked them to help with a paternity test.
Lu Xiao was a little puzzled. Who told Shen Ci this news? It was obvious that only Shen's family and he knew that Shen Ci was an adopted son.
Could it be...the real young master of the Shen family, Bai Ziwei?
Shen Ci frowned slightly in his dream, smacked his lips, and accidentally took Lu Xiao's fingertips into his mouth.
Lu Xiao's breathing suddenly became disordered, and he immediately withdrew his hand, closed his eyes and calmed his mind.
He even endured the night when Xiaoci was drugged, so these are really nothing.
…
Lu Xiao, who thought he had strong self-control, endured for 10 minutes with his body stiff. But in the end, he gave up and bent down, intending to just take a quick sip of the shallow water to quench his thirst.
Before he could touch her, the noisy phone rang suddenly. Shen Ci opened his eyes dazedly and stared blankly at Lu Xiao's enlarged handsome face.
Lu Xiao: “…”
He stood up calmly and helped Shen Ci pick up the phone to answer the call. Shen Ci climbed up clumsily with one hand and leaned on Lu Xiao, holding the phone weakly: "Hello?"
"Little ancestor, please stop sleeping!"
"The finale of 'No Goodbye' will be aired soon. I will buy you a trending search then. Then you can find the right time to post on Weibo."
"The copywriter Xiao Liu will send the Weibo copy to your phone when he finishes writing it. Let me know when you receive it."
"Regarding responding to fans..."
“…”
Brother Zhang kept talking, and Shen Ci, who was not yet awake, was overwhelmed. Lu Xiao reached out to take the phone and said lightly, "Okay."
The old mother's nagging came to an abrupt end.
Brother Zhang: “……Ah?”
