The next day, Huangyou made an investment.
Around eleven oâclock noon, assistant Xiaoliu glanced at the time and came over, âSister Shi, the weather is great outside today. Letâs go to New World for clay pot rice. Todayâs daily soup seems to be black chicken soup, it seems to be on sale.â
âSure.â Shi Huan turned off her document and stood up.
âIâm coming too!â
âAnd me.â
âTogether together.â
Everyone grabbed their coats and walked out of the secretarial room. The few of them who had just graduated from college were female students.
They walked and discussed the ever-popular topic of male idols.
âI think Luo Yunxi is so handsome!â
â1 like Deng Lun, his skin is very white, the kind of white that shines!
âWhatâs your taste, my Zhu Yilong is the most handsome!
âZhu Yilong looks so charming when he wears glasses, doesnât he!
âYes, yes, Hove him best in âGuardianâ!â
âA Guardian girl too? Me too, me tooâ¦â
Shi Huan didnât recognize any of these male celebritiesâ names.
She walked at the front of the line, looking down at her phone, preparing to ask
Luoluo if her health was better.
The weather recently suddenly turned cold, and the little one got a glamorous cold yesterday, sneezing while dressing in the morning. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYoung Master Chu!â
Hearing this name, Shi Huan quickly looked up.
Everyone else also greeted one after another.
âYoung Master Chu.â
âYoung Master Chu, good noon!â
âHello, Young Master Chu.â
Chu Xiuhuang stood in the bright corridor.
He should just have arrived at the company, wearing a fine black coat, with his long legs straight and upright.
No different from his usual, still impeccable, handsome, and attractive,
exceptâ¦
Seeing that obvious bite mark on his pretty lower lip, Shi Huanâs heart âthumpedâ.
The rest of the colleagues naturally saw it too, but dared not ask.
Each suspected it must be the work of some little demon.
âSister Shi.â Xiaoliu nudged Shi Huanâs arm, whispering to remind, âCall him quickly.â
Shi Huan regained her composure, nodded busily and greeted, âGood noon,
Young Master Chu.â
Chu Xiuhuangâs sharp eyes narrowed and fell directly on her face.
She held a long black down jacket in her hand, and was wearing an unchanged black suit throughout the year.
Still the same shoulder-length hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses large enough to cover half of her fair face.
Everyone was a bit nervous.
Young Master Chu may not have a great temper, but he rarely behaves so childishly, blocking the hallway with such a dark face and not speaking.
Whatâs going on?
Shi Huan was also made uneasy by his stare. She squeezed her fingers and could only speak first, âYoung Master Chu, weâre going downstairs for lunch.â
After saying this, she took a step forward.
Who knew that when she reached him, Chu Xiuhuang still stood blocking the way without moving.
The nervousness on everyoneâs faces increased.
Then-
Chu Xiuhuangâs thin lips finally parted, âThe boss hasnât eaten yet, and you subordinates are hasty to go downstairs, is this appropriate?
Shi Huan was taken aback.
The others quickly reacted:
âSister Shi, weâll go first.â
âYeah, Sister Shi, what do you want to eat? We can get it for you.
âOr just let me know later on WeChat.â
âBye, Sister Shi.â
Chu Xiuhuang slightly moved his body, the others immediately passed him,
and then hurried into the elevator.
The moment the door closed, the elevator was filled with chatter.
âSecretary Shi has it tough!â
âIsnât Young Master Chu too strict with her?â
âHe wonât let her go to lunch, and she has to help him order takeaways first!â âSo pitiful, even with a high salary, I wouldnât want to be Secretary Shi!
âYeah, letâs just continue being assistants. Itâs easier.

In the hallway, Chu Xiuhuang lifted his chin, striding towards the office with
his long, straight legs.
Shi Huan quickly furrowed her brows and had no choice but to follow him. Reaching the office, Chu Xiuhuang took off his coat and carelessly threw it onto the sofa.
Sinking into the boss chair, he crossed one leg over the other.
So when Shi Huan came in, she saw Chu Xiuhuang dangerously seated behind the black office desk, half-closing his eyes, just staring at her.
âChu what do you want for lunch?â Shi Huan behaved as if she hadnât noticed his anger, taking out her phone to start work, âThe steak set from Dihong or one from Jinshengâ¦â
âMy mouth hurts.â
Shi Huan: ââ¦â
Chu Xiuhuang continued, âDidnât I just bump into you last night? Is it necessary to bite me like this, huh? Secretary Shi, are you a dog? I thought you were born in the year of the rabbit?
âMr. Chu.â Shi Huan put down her phone, neither servile nor overbearing, her voice rigid and formal, âIâm sorry, last night was my fault.â Her good attitude slightly eased the anger in Chu Xiuhuangâs eyes, butâ¦
âIs sorry enough? Do you realize, you are the first woman in the world to dare bite my lips!â
Chu Xiuhuang, tapping the desk with his fingers making âtok tok tokâ sounds, showing his dissatisfaction, âAnd, you left me in the private room last night!â âSince Mr. Chu is in the office now, it means that you made it home safely last night.â
âYouâ¦â Chu Xiuhuang clenched his fist in anger.
Last night was his best buddyâs birthday. He got carried away and drank a little too much.
Then Shi Huan came to pick him up from the private room, and somehow both of them ended up on the sofa.
At the time, he seemed to smell a familiar scent. It was like a mix of citrus and floral, light, sweet, with a touch of mysteryâ¦
He didnât know what happened to him. At that moment, he just saw her talking non-stop, without any lipstick onâ¦
The second their lips made contact, the woman began struggling with all her might.
Of course he wouldnât let go, so he fought back just as stubbornly.
And thenâ¦
She bit him.
She bit him damn hard.
His mouth hurt instantly, blood flowing out, the taste of iron sobrietying up his drunkenness.
When he realized the woman was his secretary Shi, he immediately jumped off the sofa, only forâ¦
This damned woman to run away without looking back!
Making him feel like some kind of monsterâ¦
Thinking about last night, Chu Xiuhuangâs devilishly attractive eyes darkened a little more.
After some thought, he asked in a deep voice, âYou reacted so intensely, could it be becauseâ¦last night was your first time? As inâ¦your first kiss??â Shi Huan, still expressionless, seemed disturbed only briefly. Then she continued with her emotionless answer, âMr. Chu, youâre overthinking it. , Although I donât have as much romantic experience as you, last night wasnât my first.â
If she hadnât said that, Chu Xiuhuang would have been less annoyed. Now he got up from his chair and slammed his long leg on the carpet, âIf it wasnât, then why the hell did you resist so much? Do you knowyou caused my lip to bleed.â
Shi Huan:
Two seconds later, she lowered her head, âIâm sorry, Mr. Chu, would you like me to get a band-aid for you?â
âNo! Need!â Chu Xiuhuang glared at her, grinding his teeth, âI want you to look at my bitten lip every day and regret the mistake you made!â
Shi Huan: ââ¦â
âStarting from today, Iâll come to the office at nine in the morning and leave at five in the afternoon. Iâll attend all the company meetings, and youâ¦â He pointed at Shi Huan, âYou must look at me every day and repent in your heart.â
Shi Huan once again:ââ¦â
âWhatâs on the agenda this afternoon?â Chu Xiuhuang changed the subject.
Shi Huan quickly gathered her thoughts and answered, âAt two oâclock, thereâs a financial department meeting about last monthâs fund flow. At three, itâs training for new secretaries. At four, weâre discussing the property launch with HuoYuanâ¦â
âIâll go to HuoYuan with you at four.â
âOkay.â Shi Huan looked at him, âMr. Chu, do you have any other instructions?â
âGet me some food.â Chu Xiuhuang enunciated every word, âI want the same thing as you.â
âSure, Mr. Chu, Iâll go downstairs now to get your lunch personally.â After finishing, Shi Huan turned and left.
When the door closed, Chu Xiuhuang picked up his phone.
But just after reading a piece of news, he began to think about last night in the private room again.
Who wouldâve thoughtâ¦
This Shi Huan, while appearing so drab and boring on the outside, tasted quite sweetâ¦
With a bang, Chu Xiuhuang suddenly put his phone back on the desk.
He lowered his head.
The long, narrow eyes of his showed a moment of shock.
Damn!
It mustâve been too long since he was last with a woman!
