Returning to the office, it was just ti for lunch.
Yina enjoyed fairly good treatnt; the company had a cafeteria, but you had to get your own food.
However, since joining the company, Su Chen never had to fetch his own food, as the little white flower always brought it up for him and placed it on his desk.
The feeling of being waited on was indeed delightful.
But today, there was a surprise.
Because at this ti in the past, Su Chen's al should have obediently lain on his desk, waiting for his grace.
But now, his desk was utterly empty.
His gaze involuntarily turned to the little white flower beside him. Could it be that he had upset Sister Wang Yue, so she didn't get his al?
"Why are you looking at ? Hasn't soone else gone to get it for you?" the little white flower spoke with a sowhat sour tone.
Soone else was getting it for him?
Just as Su Chen was puzzled, a beautiful figure jogged over.
He saw He Li with his lunch box, rushing over to him.
"I didn't know what you like to eat, so I just got a little bit of everything," He Li handed over the lunch box.
Su Chen felt sowhat depressed. What was He Li trying to pull?
It almost seed as if she was trying to pursue him.
In fact, He Li had no intention of pursuing Su Chen.
Rather, after returning to the office, she had been restless, even prepared to be ssaged by Qin the enchantress, and then fired from the company.
But nothing happened.
Moreover, Qin Keren had made a trip to the office and seed not to ntion the sponsorship agreent at all.
Presumably, Su Chen had taken the letter back.
aning he had saved her once again.
But He Li truly didn't know how to thank Su Chen. Seeing that it was almost lunchti and Su Chen hadn't returned, she took the initiative to get Su Chen's lunch box and fetched food for him.
Although Su Chen thought He Li's actions were sowhat inappropriate, she had already brought it, so he couldn't just refuse, could he?
He had no choice but to say thank you reluctantly.
"It's nothing, I can get it for you in the future as well," He Li said with a sweet smile.
Witnessing this scene, the little white flower poked repeatedly at the rice in her lunch box with a fork while muttering with pursed lips, "Adulterer. Harlot. Colluding in disgrace, snakes and rats in the sa hole..."
"Sister Wang Yue, what are you saying?"
Su Chen's hearing was astonishing; naturally, he heard the little white flower talking to herself.
Startled by Su Chen suddenly leaning over, the little white flower jumped, "Ah, I—I didn't say anything!"
Her cheeks couldn't help but redden, Wang Yue oh Wang Yue, what's going on with you, how could you say such lowly words...
It's all this Su Chen's fault for being so infuriating.
This had to be a genetic issue.
After lunch, Su Chen wanted to chat with the little white flower, but she completely ignored him.
There was no need to ntion Yang Xuewei.
His seat was already isolated, flanked by walls, with only two colleagues, Yang Xuewei and Wang Yue.
Yang Xuewei and Wang Yue didn't pay attention to him, leaving him with no one to talk to.
He Li did want to talk to him, but unfortunately, she sat too far away.
Utterly bored, Su Chen simply played gas the entire afternoon.
After work, the little white flower still gave him a ride ho, but she wouldn't speak to him.
Su Chen felt a bit stifled.
It was He Li who insisted on getting him food, not him asking He Li to.
Why such hostility toward him?
Sigh, it seems being too popular is not a good thing.
Returning ho, Qiu Jinghan was busy preparing dinner, and Su Chen forcefully insisted on giving a helping hand.
Although Qiu Jinghan felt it wasn't appropriate for Su Chen to do so, her heart was still ward by the gesture.
After all, she's a housekeeper; who would have their boss help out the housekeeper?
Even if there were, it's probably with an ulterior motive, right?
Not that she was afraid of Su Chen having any ulterior motives towards her, but clearly, Su Chen would not.
Otherwise, that night...
After dinner was ready, Lin Xi also returned from work.
"Honey, you're back." Su Chen scurried over to hang up the bag for his CEO wife.
Soon, dinner was served.
Four dishes and a soup, both rich and nutritious.
And naturally, the taste was beyond reproach.
"By the way, Su Chen, I have to go on a business trip soon." After finishing dinner, Lin Xi sipped her soup and spoke to Wang Dadong.
"Business trip? For how long?"
"The exact duration is unclear; it might be three to five days, or possibly one to two weeks."
"Oh, got it, honey, go ahead with your trip without worrying, I can take good care of the house." Su Chen spoke with full confidence.
Lin Xi rolled her eyes and said, "With the little auntie here, there's no need for you."
"Uh..." Su Chen scratched his head awkwardly, realizing that was indeed the case.
Seeing that Su Chen still hadn't caught the hint in her words, Lin Xi had to spell it out: "What I an is, I want you to go with ."
Going on a business trip with his wife?
Damn, that's great!
Su Chen imdiately beca ecstatic, but wait, if Lin Xi had to travel for three to five days, maybe even a week, what about his job?
Ask for ti off?
He had just started working and had already taken several leaves.
If it was just for a day or two, that's manageable, but if it's for a week, Qin the enchantress would probably kill him.
"So, honey, if I go with you on this business trip, what about my job?" Su Chen looked at Lin Xi with a troubled expression.
"Just quit," Lin Xi said nonchalantly.
"How can I do that? I've just gotten into the groove of the job, and I've finally started getting to know my colleagues well; quitting now... doesn't seem right..."
Joking aside, with so many ladies in the sales departnt, Su Chen wasn't keen on leaving.
"I'll give you a daily compensation of one thousand for your missed work." Lin Xi knew that money was most likely what he was after.
"Honey, it's not about the money, it's about principle..."
"Two thousand."
"Honey..."
"Five thousand!" Lin Xi was already familiar with Su Chen's tactics; so much for principles, his only principle is having no principles.
If the offer was tempting enough, he'd probably be willing to give his wife away to soone else.
However, this ti, Lin Xi miscalculated.
Su Chen still shook his head.
"I know you're afraid that after using up, you'll have no inco. So here's the deal; when you return from the trip, I'll give you a position in the company, with a salary that won't be less than five thousand per month," Lin Xi continued to up the ante.
A monthly salary of five thousand?
Bro, I'm already at a monthly salary of five thousand, thank you.
And there's also a commission of one hundred and fifty thousand that I haven't received yet!
Which ans, without doing anything for the rest of the year, I will be getting two hundred thousand in salary, equivalent to twenty thousand per month.
Thinking this, he said, "Honey, it's really not about the money. The boss is willing to employ and give a livelihood; I can't be ungrateful. One must rember one's roots, right? I can try to ask for leave, and if my boss approves it, I will accompany you. But if the leave isn't granted, then there's nothing I can do."
