Chapter 115: Learning from her_i
After a long period of head-down writing, Su Hongxing’s neck felt sore and swollen. She subconsciously tapped her own shoulder, only to hear Ye Qilan say, “Hongxing, sit a little closer.”
Without giving it much thought and assuming that there was some work-related instruction coming from her boss, Su Hongxing, she obediently moved to sit next to him.
To her surprise, Ye Qilan suddenly pulled her even closer, wordlessly beginning to rub her sore shoulder, leaving her startled.
Ye Qilan gently said, “If you’re tired, take a break.”
The room full of middle-level managers who witnessed this performance felt thoroughly shocked.
True to his form, Ye Qilan, adept at executing grand plans, managed to show attention to both new and old love interests without neglecting either one.
It was a testament to his prowess as a man that he could maintain such a successful balance, nurturing a house full of women while ensuring their peaceful coexistence.
Surrounded by so many people, Su Hongxing felt uncomfortable. She attempted to push Ye Qilan away, “It’s okay, I’m not tired.”
“Your neck is so stiff, and you’re saying you’re not tired?” Ye Qilan stopped her from fidgeting and, under the watchful eyes of everyone present, continued to massage Su Hongxing’s neck.
Unable to prevent Ye Qilan’s actions, Su Hongxing had no choice but to sit quietly while he massaged her.
Seeing her squint in enjoyment, Ye Qilan’s gaze softened. As it was summer, she was wearing a shirt and her neck revealed a large swath of white skin.
Wherever his fingers touched, he found her skin to be extraordinarily smooth and soft, sending a thrill through him.
Unable to resist, he leaned down to gently bite her pale, tender neck.
The taste was exactly as he remembered, as sweet as if it had been coated in honey. He couldn’t help but take a few more bites, feeling moved for a moment.
If it weren’t for the inappropriate setting, he might have thrown her on the bed then and there…
As soon as he bit her, the expression of pleasure on Su Hongxing’s face disappeared. She turned to look at the others in the meeting room, finding them all shocked.
However, upon seeing a jealous look on Cao Shiyu’s face, her lips couldn’t help but curve upwards slightly.
Ye Qilan, observing from behind her, was pleasantly surprised. “Hongxing, you’re smiling.”
Whenever Su Hongxing smiled, it filled him with joy. His gaze steadied, unable to look away.
Feeling very awkward, Su Hongxing feared that Ye Qilan would cross the line even further, so she pushed him away and murmured, “I’m fine, thank you.”
She took the opportunity to distance herself from Ye Qilan, resuming her normal demeanor and getting back to work.
After the daily work meeting, the names of Su Hongxing and Cao Shiyu rippled through the office once more.
The onlookers felt the situation was even more exciting than a primetime palace drama. Some said Cao Shiyu was still too inexperienced compared to Su Hongxing.
Others speculated if Su Hongxing had used some sort of enchanting technique on Ye Qilan, as otherwise how could he treat this so-called ugly woman differently.
Everyone had their own opinions, notably debating who took more priority in Ye Qilan’s heart, Su Hongxing or Cao Shiyu.
Su Hongxing overheard a variety of gossip about herself, Cao Shiyu and Ye Qilan while in the restroom.
After enduring for ten minutes and seeing that they still hadn’t stopped gossiping, she had no choice but to come out.
The few women who had been involved in the gossip looked incredibly awkward at her sudden appearance.
Nevertheless, one of the bolder ones came forward and asked Su Hongxing upfront, “What’s your secret for captivating Mr.Ye?”
She was genuinely curious, hoping to gain some insights from Su Hongxing..
