Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yi Zheng had not seen Shi Man for many days.

Ever since the two of them parted on bad terms last time, Shi Man had not taken the initiative to send him a message. The replies to his messages were concise and distant.

He sighed softly, before turning around to walk out of the office. He thought that it was already dark outside, but he did not expect that someone had specially left a light beside the desk at the door for him.

He was surprised for a moment before subconsciously walking to the desk. At a glance, he saw the carefully packed thermos box on the desk. There was even a cute pink sticker on it. Her handwriting was neat as she wrote, “As the President’s special assistant, of course I have to take good care of CEO Yi’s body. CEO Yi, it’s been hard on you to work overtime. Rest early after dinner. Good night!”

After reading the note, a face that was always brimming with an innocent smile instantly appeared in front of her eyes. Right on the heels of that, that face turned into a crying face, as if he had indeed made her suffer a lot that night.

Yi Zheng’s eyes darkened slightly. He pursed his lips and threw the note and the thermos box into the trash can beside the table before leaving the top floor with a cold expression.

The next day, Chen Jiao walked out of the elevator with a smile on her face. She said good morning to her colleagues one by one. When she walked to the trash can and saw the cleaning lady packing a few thermos boxes, she subconsciously stopped her.

“Wait!”

The cleaning lady looked at her in confusion. “Secretary Chen, what’s wrong?”

The smile on Chen Jiao’s face froze, and her face suddenly turned pale. “I’m fine. Go ahead. 1 thought 1 saw something but was mistaken.”

The auntie nodded skeptically. In the end, she threw the thermos containers into the trash bag and brought them downstairs.

Chen Jiao sat in her seat and took a deep breath as she looked at the tightly shut door next door.

It didn’t matter. If he didn’t accept it once, she would continue to care about him. There would be a time when he would soften his heart and accept her goodwill. As long as he accepted it, she would definitely eat him up!

Just as she was thinking this, someone suddenly patted Chen Jiao’s shoulder.

She wasn’t actually frightened, but she still pretended to be shocked and looked behind her with widened eyes.

Cheng Fang scratched his head apologetically. “I’m sorry for scaring you.”

“It’s fine.” Chen Jiao immediately smiled considerately. “Brother Cheng, why are you looking for me? Did something go wrong with my work yesterday?”

“No, no!” Cheng Fang quickly waved his hand. His heart trembled at her sweet “Brother Cheng”, but he quickly composed himself and asked carefully, “Did something happen between you and the President?”

Chen Jiao was disdainful in her heart, but the smile on her face became even more gentle and shy. “Brother Cheng, why do you ask? Of course, the President and I are only in a working relationship.”

Cheng Fang noticed that the tips of her ears were red, and his eyes lit up. “Did you work late again last night? I saw Secretary Tang at a coffee shop near the company. You weren’t with him. Could it be that you were working overtime alone with the President?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiao stood up with a whoosh. Coincidentally, Yi Zheng had just come out of the elevator. Chen Jiao pretended to be shocked and quickly denied it. “No, 1 worked overtime late last night, but President Yi went back even later. I was outside the whole time and never went into President Yi’s office!”

Cheng Fang’s eyes revealed a teasing smile.

The more flustered she was, the more he felt that there was a secret between them.

Hearing this, Yi Zheng immediately frowned and looked over. freewe bnovel.com

Chen Jiao shook her head gently at him, looking pitiful and restrained again.

Yi Zheng only took a glance before leaving.

Only then did Cheng Fang notice that the President had already come to work. He quickly restrained his expression and returned to his seat to work.

After a while, Tang Zhe was called into the office, and right on the heels of that, Chen Jiao was also called in. Cheng Fang watched her back until the office door was closed from the inside.

After they left, Cheng Fang immediately told the people beside him about Chen Jiao and the President staying behind to work overtime last night.

In the office, Yi Zheng sat upright on the chair. His suit was ironed neatly, and his brows were filled with sternness. “What did you say to them outside just now?”

Chen Jiao was stunned for a moment before she seemed to be worried about something and shook her head aggrievedly.

Yi Zheng narrowed his eyes, his expression extremely displeased. “I’m warning you, don’t spread rumors about our relationship with others. Otherwise, leave the company immediately!” f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com

When Chen Jiao heard this, her eyes quickly turned red. She looked at Tang Zhe for help and stubbornly bit her lower lip to retort, “President Yi, you’ve misunderstood me. 1 really didn’t say anything to anyone else. Moreover, you and I… are just superior and subordinate. How can I spread rumors!”

These words made Yi Zheng choke.

Tang Zhe quickly explained for her, “President Yi, don’t worry. Jiaojiao isn’t that kind of person. If she really spreads rumors and slanders you, I’ll make her leave the company without you saying anything. It won’t affect your reputation, and I won’t let the rumors ruin your engagement with Miss Shi..”
