âPresident Shan, President Zhou has no choice. If heâs not working, he canât wait to spend more time with you.â
He Sheng came to Shan Yueâs desk with a smile on his face. âIn the next two days, if thereâs no major problem with President Zhouâs last checkup, he can be discharged. When the time comes, he will definitely come to look for you personally. President Zhou often talks about your kindness to him.â
Shan Yue deliberately put on a look of disbelief. âReally? Why donât I believe it?â
âHow can it be fake? President Zhou spent a lot of effort. He saw that the bracelet at the auction last night really suits your temperament, so he immediately asked me to go over and buy it for you.â
He Sheng quickly placed the things in his hand on the table. âThereâs also a cake. Itâs a shop that President Zhou likes very much. This shop uses animal cream. It wonât be very sweet or fat, and it wonât affect its taste at all.â
Shan Yue raised her eyebrows and looked at the thing in front of her. âIs this your idea or President Zhouâs?â
âOf course itâs President Zhou. How can an assistant like me dare to do such a thing on my own?â Shan Yueâs words frightened He Sheng to the spot, afraid that he had said the wrong thing.
However, Shan Yue had always had a joking attitude. âWhen did President Zhou, who claims to never get close to women, learn to choose gifts and even bring a cake?â
âEveryone will change, let alone President Zhou. President Shan, President Zhou spent a lot of effort to get this jade bracelet. Itâs dignified and generous.â
He Sheng specially opened the box containing the jade bracelet in front of Shan Yue. âPresident Zhou took a fancy to it at a glance last night. If you can wear it, it will be really icing on the cake. Itâs worth it.â
âYouâre really competent as an assistant. Not only are you helping Zhou Xuan manage the companyâs daily affairs, but youâre also in charge of such things for him. Youâre really worth ten.â
Shan Yueâs lips curled up. âYou donât have to speak up for your President Zhou. If heâs really sincere, even if he doesnât bring anything, itâs enough for him to come personally.â
He Sheng immediately understood what she meant. âUnderstood, President Shan. 1 promise that President Zhou will definitely appear in front of you next time, not me.â
Shan Yue knew that Zhou Xuan was still recuperating in the hospital, so she stopped teasing He Sheng.
She picked up the jade bracelet on the table and fiddled with it in her hand. Shan Yue, who was experienced and knowledgeable, knew a little about these things. She could tell at a glance that this was a genuine good thing.
Shan Yue did not refuse because she knew that since Zhou Xuan had sent these things, he had no intention of letting He Sheng take them back. In addition, she was not a dilly-dallying person. Since the things were already in front of her, she would gladly accept them.
âTry it on.â Seeing that Shan Yue had no intention of refusing, He Sheng quickly said, âGood things really have to be matched with the right person.â
The size of the jade bracelet happened to match Shan Yueâs wrist, as if it was tailor-made. He Sheng saw that Shan Yue wore it very appropriately. More importantly, Shan Yue had no intention of taking it off.
At this moment, He Sheng was overjoyed. Not only could the mission be completed successfully, but he was also happy for President Zhou from the bottom of his heart. The gift that he valued was deeply loved by the girl he liked. This was probably what every boy wanted.
Just as He Sheng was still feeling happy, Shan Yue, who was in front of him, said, âI didnât expect your President Zhou to have such good taste. Just go back and tell him that 1 like this jade bracelet very much, so Iâll accept it. Iâll thank President Zhouâs kindness.â
At this moment, He Shengâs joy was completely displayed on his face. âIf you like this gift, President Zhou will definitely be very happy.â
âI can tell that he has indeed put in a lot of effort. Itâs not easy to find such a good jade now.â
Shan Yue continued to wear the bracelet. âIf it werenât for the fact that itâs for sale at the auction, I reckon we wouldnât be able to find a jade bracelet of such quality in the shops outside.â
The matter of the jade bracelet had been resolved. Then, He Sheng asked tentatively, âPresident Shan, do you think this cake is alsoâ¦â
Shan Yue smiled at first. She knew that if she did not accept the cake, He Sheng would not be able to report back. âLeave the cake here too. Iâve already accepted the bracelet.. Why would I be afraid of accepting another cake?â
