Chapter 28 The Boss Offers Warmth
Gu Yan's voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of barely perceptible grievance.
"Sir, I'm so sorry... I didn't mean to spill the water on myself. I just wanted to pour you a glass of water, but I slipped..."
He cautiously peered at Fu Xiaoting's expression with his wet, dog-like eyes.
Yun Yang instantly got goosebumps all over her body.
With this acting, these lines, these expressions, are you sure you don't want to act in short dramas?
Stop biting! Stop biting! What are you doing, a grown man biting your lower lip? You've almost broken the skin! Disgusting!
A deafening internal monologue exploded in Yun Yang's mind.
Yun Yang could only chuckle.
If you don't bite your lower lip, you can bite your upper lip. That way, no matter how good-looking someone is, they'll look like a donkey.
Yun Yang turned to leave.
I didn't see her, I didn't see her.
Just as they were about to close.
"Crack!"
A fine bone china teacup shattered at her feet!
Tea splashed onto the hem of her skirt, startling her so much that her legs felt like they were nailed to the ground, and she dared not move again.
Fu Xiaoting's eyes were as cold as knives as he stared straight at her.
Yun Yang: "..."
Well, there's no way out now.
[This stupid woman! Did I say you could leave?! Get this greasy man out of here right now!]
Fu Xiaoting's inner roar was so loud it almost shattered Yun Yang's eardrums.
Brother, how do I get him to leave?
Everyone else lives in suites, but she lives in a run-down room.
Where would they get that authority?
Yun Yang glanced at Gu Yan with an ambiguous expression.
Dude, you're working on the wrong track.
With your level of skill, you should go find Fu Xiaoting's stepmother. She'll be completely infatuated with you, and then you can become Xiaoting's stepfather.
"gentlemen."
Gukiro walked briskly.
Her eyes were red, and her face was flushed.
He glanced at Gu Yan kneeling on the ground and said, "Sir, he must not have done it on purpose. He is young and doesn't know any better. Please don't take it to heart."
"Don't worry, I will definitely teach him manners properly in the future and will never let him offend you again."
After saying that, he grabbed Gu Yan and... took her away?
A question mark appeared between Yun Yang's brows.
[I've never seen Brother Ji so attentive to a man before. Could Gu Yan be his relative?]
Fu Xiaoting's inner monologue drifted over.
Yun Yang had just turned her gaze away from the doorway when her mouth moved faster than her brain.
"I think so too."
As soon as the words were spoken, the entire study fell into a deathly silence.
Yun Yang suddenly snapped back to reality, wishing she could slap herself across the face right then and there!
She actually responded to his feelings!
For the first time, an incredulous shock appeared in Fu Xiaoting's unfathomable black eyes!
He...he heard it?
Yunyang's mind raced, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
What should we do? What should we do?
In a flash, her eyes caught sight of a fresh coconut on the desk.
He immediately picked it up, forcing a bright smile onto his face.
"Sir, this coconut smells delicious!"
"It's hot today, you must be thirsty, right? Let me open it for you to drink!"
Before Fu Xiaoting could react, Yun Yang grabbed a fruit knife from the fruit plate next to her and slashed the bottom of the coconut twice.
Easily find the weakest "eye" on the coconut, poke it with the tip of a fruit knife, and then "slurp" the straw in.
The whole process was smooth and seamless.
Then he respectfully handed it to Fu Xiaoting.
"Sir, please have some."
Fu Xiaoting: "..."
He glanced at Yun Yang suspiciously, as if trying to figure out what she meant by what she had just said.
But in the end, he still took the coconut and silently sipped the sweet coconut juice.
Yun Yang let out a long sigh of relief.
Seeing that Fu Xiaoting's doubts seemed to have been dispelled, he quickly got down to business.
"Sir, I'm here to return the necklace."
As she spoke, she carefully prepared to remove the "ash necklace" from her neck.
But a quick glance fixed on Fu Xiaoting's wrist, which was holding the coconut.
There stood the watch she had longed for, gleaming with gold.
This necklace, though made from Xiaoting's mother's ashes, was her reward for cooking instant noodles.
It's a bit of a loss to just return it for nothing...
Why don't we talk to him and exchange this necklace for the gold watch on his wrist?
Anyway, he's so rich, a watch is nothing to him, right?
Yunyang thought about it more and more and felt that the idea was feasible.
However, Fu Xiaoting saw her thoughts in a completely different light.
All he saw was the woman's gaze slowly sliding down his hand holding the coconut, past his wrist, and over his forearm...
Then, it continued downwards...
Finally, it landed between his legs!
Fu Xiaoting's internal alarm bells went off instantly!
She squeezed her legs together as if she'd been electrocuted.
[Where is she looking?!]
[This woman! She actually had designs on me too!]
[Perverts, everyone here is a pervert!]
The barrage of internal monologues, like an avalanche of mountains and a tsunami, once again stunned Yun Yang.
She was utterly speechless!
Do you think you're the Renminbi (RMB)? Someone everyone loves and who pleases you?
Besides, who wants to see that stuff?
It doesn't work well either!
So annoying! So annoying! I don't want it anymore! I don't want the gold watch anymore!
She carefully placed the necklace on the table.
"Sir! Here's your necklace back! I'm leaving!"
After saying that, she rushed out of the study without looking back, not wanting to stay for even a second longer.
"Crack!"
Another cup perished, forcing Yunyang to a halt in her steps.
She kept her head down, too lazy to look at Fu Xiaoting.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw his wheelchair turn towards her, the black metal rims rolling over the polished floor with a slight sound, getting closer and closer, bringing with them an invisible sense of oppression.
Finally, it stopped in front of her.
Immediately afterwards, an exquisite red velvet box was handed to her. A note was placed on top of the box, which read: "Remember, you are mine. Don't spend all your time following Shen Mingyue around. This box contains a gift for you."
Yun Yang's eyes sparkled instantly.
Is it jewelry? She carefully removed the paper, her heart pounding.
She didn't recognize the gold-plated logo, but it looked very expensive.
With the anticipation of opening a blind box, she gently lifted the lid.
Inside the box, a pair of gray thermal underwear lay quietly.
The three bright red characters on the packaging almost blinded her – Arctic Man.
There's also a line of smaller print next to it: Fleece-lined, thickened, high-waisted, knee-protecting thermal pants.
Don't be too touched that your boss is giving you a thoughtful gift; he just knew you liked thermal underwear!
Yun Yang: "..."
She carried the Arctic man out of the room, wondering what material the pants were made of, as they were quite heavy.
Before I had taken two steps, that obsequious system voice rang out again.
[Host, don't worry, Fu Xiaoting is a top, he would never like that nanny!]
Yun Yang's steps suddenly stopped.
1?
Is it the 1 she understands?
Is it the 1 in 1 and 0?
She carefully followed the sound.
Sudden.
A lazy voice came from behind.
"Hey, what are you doing? Trying to raid my base?"
Shen Mingyue appeared behind her at some point, arms crossed, staring intently at her.
"I'm hungry! I want spicy crayfish, lots of garlic, and it has to be super spicy!"
Yun Yang: "..."
She subconsciously glanced around.
Still unwilling to give up, he walked to the corner of the stairs and took another look.
There wasn't a single person in sight except for Shen Mingyue...
