“I feel like, that’s not the case.”
Wen Ran wasn’t sure why, she just felt that Cheng Jia wasn’t that foolish unless there was a reason for her to let go.
She knew well that by not being together with Little Liu, she would lose half the chance to get close to MO Xiuchen, yet she still did it. This could only indicate that she had another shortcut.
It was impossible for her to have given up on MO Xiuchen so easily.
“Ranran, don’t think about it too much. Even if she has any designs, it won’t make a difference, trust me, your husband isn’t the type of man who can be easily enticed by others. Aside from you, even if another woman was to strip naked in front of me, it wouldn’t matter,”
MO Xiuchen held her as they lay down, pulled the quilt over her, kissed her forehead and softly said, “Go to sleep. You’ll be going to work at my company tomorrow. After that, I’ll be under your supervision 24/7, and no other woman will have a chance.”
“Yes, I should keep a closer eye on you.”
Wen Ran laughed lightly, nestled her head into his chest, and closed her eyes to sleep.
“It’s even better if we’re inseparable for 24 hours.”
MO Xiuchen chuckled softly and also closed his eyes.
Outside the window, the chilly night settled in, while the room was warm like spring, filled with affection and intimacy.
Accompanied by his beloved woman, MO Xiuchen looked radiant, dashing and elegant as usual.
He drove his black Aston into the reserved parking spot ten minutes before work began, helped his wife unbuckle her seatbelt, and got out of the car to open the door for her himself, bidding the nearby security guards to back off.
“Thank you! ”
Wen Ran emerged from the car with a smile blooming on her face.
Today was her first day working at MS Group. Instead of wearing a professional suit, she had a bespoke autumn outfit paired with this autumn’s latest short boots. With her black hair draped over her shoulders, she exuded a youthful and innocent charm, yet the figure under her autumn outfit oozed a coquettish allure.
In the bleak autumn season, she was like the green of spring, instantly drawing the eyes.
MO Xiuchen appeared outstandingly handsome, tall, and refined today. Having a beloved one by his side perhaps warmed the coldness he usually exuded, and he somehow looked warm amidst his nobility.
As they walked into the office together, he returned all the greetings from his subordinates, his eyes held no laughter yet no frost either.
For a moment, the most explosive news in the office building was, “Today, the president has brought the president’s wife to work, I actually saw the president smiling.”
“Yes, I always thought the president was as cold as ice, his gaze as piercing as a knife. But just now, the president’s gaze was as mild as spring. If the president’s wife was to work here every day, we’d be blessed.”
“The president and his wife are so well-matched, both talented and beautiful, truly a match made in heaven…”
The sounds of envy and joy filled the air in every department.
Of course, this included the Public Relations Department as well.
To prove herself, Cheng Jia came especially early.
While the other colleagues were gossiping about the president and his wife, she was engrossed in her paperwork. With surprise, she raised her head to ask a peer nearby, “What were you guys just saying?
The colleague grinned and said, “We just saw the president bringing his wife to work. It was the president himself who said his wife is here to accompany him. His wife is indeed very beautiful. And her smile is pure and wonderful…” Cheng Jia’s complexion changed in a flash.
She clenched her fists tightly to suppress the jealousy growing in her heart. She kept her lips pursed tight to refrain from uttering harsh words.
She took a deep breath, asking with an almost nonchalant tonality, “Why would the president’s wife accompany the president to work? Isn’t she supposed to be working at the Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory?”
The colleague shrugged with slight bewilderment, “No idea, but that’s how the president explained it. Maybe she didn’t have anything to do in the factory today, so she comes to our company to accompany the president at work.”
“Who cares why, all I know is, after the president’s wife arrived, the president won’t be so stern anymore. At least today, we no longer need to live under the icy coldness, it feels like spring is coming, and it’s really good.”
Cheng Jia gave a sarcastic smirk, she dismissed it, “Longing for spring is just wishful thinking. Even if Wen Ran came, it wouldn’t change the feud between President Xiao, his mother, and the president. Yesterday, the president had canceled the collaborations with the previous three companies, President Xiao was so furious that he trashed his office.”
“Hush, Cheng Jia, such stuff isn’t any of our business, don’t talk about it anymore.”
One of them looked alarmed and quickly stopped her.
Not to mention the whole company, even within their Public Relations Department, not everyone was on the president’s side.
Even though he reshuffled the senior executive team, there were always a few who slipped through the net. If someone heard of their talk and it reached President Xiao, that would spell disaster.
Two strands of hair fell onto Cheng Jia’s neck as she lifted her hand to brush them aside.
A colleague next to her immediately noticed the hickey on her neck and gasped in shock, “Oh, Cheng Jia, is that a hickey on your neck? You actually have a boyfriend, come on, confess! Who is your boyfriend, what does he do, is he handsome?”
Upon noticing the hickey on Cheng Jia’s neck, another colleague chuckled, “The two of you must have been really intense for you to have that many hickeys on your neck. Cheng Jia, you’re so beautiful, your boyfriend must be very handsome, right? Did your boyfriend give you this necklace?”
Women’s tendency to gossip is always strong.
Cheng Jia’s eyes flickered. From her initial discomfort and panic, she quickly regained her cheeky smile. She raised her hand to touch her necklace and said, “This is not from my boyfriend, it’s a gift from the president”. “A gift from the president, oh my!”
The colleague clapped her hand over her mouth clearly shocked.
“The president is really nice to you, not only letting you work in the company but also giving you a necklace. Ahh, now I remember, is your boyfriend Little Liu, the president’s driver? A really honest guy, I recall, it was mentioned in some articles before, right?”
The statement strained Cheng Jia’s expression, and she coldly denied, “Of course not, that was an accident, my boyfriend… let’s work, the boss is here.”
She intentionally left her sentences hanging, letting her colleagues imagine and speculate. Cheng Jia sat back in her position and engrossed herself back into her paperwork.
“Cheng Jia, where’s the boss coming from? You tricked us! Now tell us, who’s your boyfriend and who did you sleep with so passionately last night!”
The two of them looked at the entrance, no one was there, so they couldn’t help but shake Cheng Jia’s arm as they complained.
Cheng Jia giggled, playing coy and mysterious, “Good sisters, spare me, I…
really can’t say.”
“What can’t you say? Are you afraid we will steal your handsome boyfriend?” “No, it’s because I don’t have a boyfriend, and about last night… it was an accident…”
Cheng Jia caressed the necklace around her neck and spoke with affection in her eyes..
