He Only Shows His True Colors in Front of Me : Chapter 15
Over the next two or three days, whenever the agreed time to sign the contract arrived, Gu Yuanqiao would call Qi Tao to say he had an urgent matter to attend to and had to step out. For the first two times, Sheng Yannian just thought Gu Yuanqiao was a busybody, but by the third time he was stood up, even someone as slow as him realized that this guy was doing it on purpose to mess with him.
Meanwhile, Sheng Yannian checked his watch and saw that the agreed time was approaching, yet there was still no word from the other party. “President Sheng.” Qi Tao pushed open the office door right after hanging up the phone. “What’s the word?” Sheng Yannian asked. “President Gu, he…” “Tsk, forget it.” Sheng Yannian cut his secretary off before he could finish. “I’ll go block him myself.” He immediately stood up and headed for the door. “But…” From the moment he made the decision to the execution, Sheng Yannian gave Qi Tao no chance to interject, leaving the secretary unsure if he should inform him that President Gu had said he was already on his way down to sign the contract. However, seeing his boss’s impatient gaze, he chose to keep his mouth shut and respect his superior’s decision.
The moment Sheng Yannian opened his office door, he could clearly feel the air stagnate, as if a pause button had been pressed. Everyone at their desks sat upright, fearing they would be caught slacking off. “…” Sheng Yannian scanned his subordinates and continued on his trajectory toward the elevator. The moment he left the office area, the atmosphere among the staff instantly relaxed.
“Whoa… that scared me. Why did President Sheng come out so suddenly? There’s no scheduled fieldwork today, right?” True enough, their dear president wouldn’t leave his office unless it was absolutely necessary for work. Even his meals were delivered by his secretary. They would swear their top boss was secretly a total homebody. “I don’t know, but doesn’t it feel like he’s in a bad mood? I just caught a glimpse, and his face was as dark as Bao Gong.” “Can you blame him? He told us two days ago he was going to sign with that Calista Hotel. And? It’s been days, and it still hasn’t happened.” “Did President Sheng get played? That’s Calista, man! I stayed there once while traveling, and my god, the service was beyond words.” “You can’t say that; our Shengan isn’t bad either. Looking at the domestic market, how many real estate companies can compare to us?” “That’s true, but if it really goes through, our stock will definitely go up again. I just wonder if our salaries will go up too.” “But I really didn’t expect the manager of Calista’s China region to be Mr. Gu. He’s so young, only around 30.” “I see people in the group chat saying Mr. Gu and President Sheng are pretty close, so how come the contract never gets signed?” “Hard to say. Some people in the group say their vibes don’t match. Besides, even if they’re friends, who can say for sure when it comes to business?” “Also true.”
The topic among the dozen people jumped quickly, shifting from Sheng Yannian’s mood to Gu Yuanqiao, and then to gossiping about the two of them. In the past few days, all the employees at Shengan had talked about Gu Yuanqiao quite a bit, discussing his life, resume, talent, and appearance. At first, everyone’s impression was just that he was a handsome man, but later they realized his looks were the least noteworthy thing about him. The honors he had achieved since childhood were enough to bury any one of them, not to mention his success in business. He was a man who could completely hold his own against Sheng Yannian, and perhaps even be more outstanding.
Of course, everyone was most curious about his relationship with Sheng Yannian. At first, everyone thought they were just good friends, but later it seemed a bit off. Leaving aside the contract, they had never seen the two seek each other out, even though they were only five floors apart. “Hey, hey, hey!” Someone’s gasp drew everyone’s attention. “President Sheng’s elevator stopped on the 35th floor! Is he taking the initiative to go on the offensive?” “Tsk, it’s over, it’s over. The person who makes the first move has already lost. I’ve already predicted who is at a disadvantage in their relationship.” “Sigh, President Sheng is still too young…” “…You all better be careful about being overheard…”
Unlike the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere on the 30th floor, the two on the 35th floor were at “daggers drawn.” Mainly, it was Sheng Yannian. As soon as he arrived on the floor, he found Gu Yuanqiao preparing to take the elevator, so he pulled him away without a word and cornered him against the wall, looking like he was there to settle scores. “?” Gu Yuanqiao was confused to see Sheng Yannian, who was standing so close and looking so angry the heat could burn him. Some Calista employees walked past them while keeping their eyes fixed straight ahead; since their president didn’t ask for help, they assumed he could handle it himself.
Sheng Yannian saw the hint of confusion in Gu Yuanqiao’s eyes and became even more annoyed. “Where is Director Gu going? Don’t tell me it’s another emergency or that you forgot the time again?” He smiled cordially, but he was grit-teeth angry. “…” Gu Yuanqiao understood now; it seemed Qi Tao hadn’t told Sheng Yannian that he was coming to find him. “Young Mr. Sheng, I haven’t even said anything yet. It’s not very nice to wrong an innocent person the moment you come up here, is it?” “…” Then tell me.” Sheng Yannian straightened his body, putting a little distance between them. Gu Yuanqiao lifted the documents in his hand. “Look, I was planning to go find you to sign the contract. I just don’t know why your little secretary didn’t tell you.” Sheng Yannian hesitated for a moment, took the documents, and opened them; it was indeed the one he had seen in the study earlier. “Hmph,” he replied huffily. “Young Mr. Sheng, after wronging me, don’t I deserve an apology?”
Sheng Yannian pressed the elevator button, rolled his eyes at the man’s shameless words behind him, and couldn’t be bothered to reply. He still remembered being stood up for the past few days; Gu Yuanqiao was anything but innocent. Watching the back of Sheng Yannian’s head, Gu Yuanqiao didn’t continue to “provoke” him. While he had been playing with Sheng Yannian these past few days, he had also been genuinely busy. Regulations and rules differed completely between overseas and domestic markets, and he had to teach his team one by one. Besides, he couldn’t keep renting here; he had to find a proper office building, not to mention market research, follow-up preparation, networking, and so on. Most annoyingly, people from his main family kept causing him trouble, a bunch of clowns wasting his rest time. He had been so overworked that he found Sheng Yannian much cuter; at least this person didn’t trip him up in business.
“…” Gu Yuanqiao sighed softly to himself, missing Sheng Yannian’s big bed. These days he was either sleeping at the office or in a hotel, neither of which was comfortable. There was no need to mention the office conditions; the little sofa left his joints stiff every time he woke up. The hotel bed was too soft, and his back hurt after sleeping on it for too long. *What excuse can I find to go to the kid’s house again?* Gu Yuanqiao stared at Sheng Yannian, lost in thought. “Hey, let’s go.” When the elevator opened and Sheng Yannian stepped in, he realized Gu Yuanqiao was still standing there dazed. “Coming.” Gu Yuanqiao pulled himself together; opportunities would always come, he would wait until he was well-rested before worrying about it.
When the two walked out of the elevator one after the other, everyone on the 30th floor had returned to being fully immersed in their work. Gu Yuanqiao paused as he stepped out. “Your subordinates… they are all very focused.” Aside from the clicking of keyboards and mice, not a sound could be heard. It wasn’t that it was bad, just that feeling like that for a long time must be a lot of mental pressure. His requirement for his subordinates was that as long as they ensured work was finished on time, meeting both quality and quantity, it didn’t matter if they slacked off or daydreamed at their desks occasionally. When they were busy, he would even treat everyone to afternoon tea. “Heh…” Sheng Yannian swept a glance over the crowd, choosing not to expose their pretense.
Sheng Yannian led Gu Yuanqiao toward his office. During the walk, Gu Yuanqiao could feel eyes—many eyes—fixed on him. Gu Yuanqiao smiled, showing no displeasure. The second he entered the office and closed the door, he seemed to hear some faint bustling outside. However, the soundproofing in Sheng Yannian’s office was excellent; once the door was fully closed, one could only hear the sound of the air conditioner running. The contract signing went smoothly, and neither side had much to say; after all, everything that needed confirming had been confirmed long ago. It ended with both sides standing up, shaking hands, and saying “happy cooperation.” Shengan was now officially in partnership with Calista.
As soon as he finished signing, Sheng Yannian’s phone rang. Seeing it was his dear brother, he answered it without a second thought. His usual impatient tone took on an upbeat lilt, and his lips curled into a smile, giving Gu Yuanqiao, who saw everything, a sudden chill. The call didn’t last long, but one could tell that Sheng Yannian’s final tone was completely different from the start; he had reverted to that impatient manner, even laced with a complaint that sounded almost like pouting. *…He’s a lost cause,* Gu Yuanqiao thought. After hanging up, Sheng Yannian picked up his suit jacket, appearing ready to leave. In fact, he was; his good older brother had rarely called him, only to ask him to pick up his niece. Tsk. “I have to go out, you…” Sheng Yannian paused while holding the door, turned his head to look at Gu Yuanqiao, who was still sitting there, and frowned. “If you have nothing else, you should leave. Don’t just stay here.” Gu Yuanqiao didn’t even turn his head, simply waving his hand to indicate he understood. “….Tsk.” Sheng Yannian looked at him for a few seconds before opening the door and leaving.
Only after the man left did Gu Yuanqiao start to examine the office. It was quite large, at least bigger than his own. Both the front and back of the room were glass, which seemed to be one-way. The left and right sides were white walls. He remembered that before coming in, the left side of the office was the conference room, and the right seemed to be the secretary’s office. There was also a sofa in the room, placed not far from the door, against the glass and the wall. In front of the sofa was a coffee table, much like the one in Sheng Yannian’s study. The desk in front of him was very wide, appearing much larger than the one at Sheng Yannian’s home, though the computer was the same model. Further inside, against the wall, was a cabinet for storing files. It was now past five in the afternoon, and some sunset light shone through the glass. Fortunately, he was sitting further out, so the sunlight didn’t hit him. He didn’t sit for long before standing up to head toward the sofa; the chair was still a bit too hard. The sofa was very soft, and Gu Yuanqiao sank into it instantly, his sense of exhaustion seemingly easing. He sat there quietly with his back to the sofa, staring blankly at the dust motes dancing in the sunset.
Just as Gu Yuanqiao thought, the office door was indeed made of one-way glass. Consequently, everyone who couldn’t see what was happening inside was left puzzled. President Sheng had been gone for a long time, and yet the person inside still hadn’t left. Although the other party was supposed to be a gentleman, but… a president’s office shouldn’t be occupied by unrelated personnel for so long! Wasn’t President Sheng worried that company documents would be snooped through?!
“President Sheng, Mr. Gu doesn’t seem to have left yet. Is there anything you need us to do?” With Qi Tao away, Sheng Yannian’s other assistant, Shi Xiayao, sent a message to Sheng Yannian. On the other side, Sheng Yannian had just parked his car at his niece’s school gate when he realized Shi Xiayao had messaged him. His brows furrowed upon learning the man was still lingering in his office, but he didn’t reply immediately. He switched to another software to see what Gu Yuanqiao was doing. His office had surveillance, capable of both capturing visuals and recording audio. Clicking on it, he saw Gu Yuanqiao sitting on the sofa, motionless, as if he had lost his soul. “?” Baffling. After confirming the other party wasn’t doing anything strange, he returned to his chat with Shi Xiayao. “Don’t worry about him.” After sending that, he turned off his phone, continued to keep a grumpy face, and got out of the car to pick up his niece, carrying the roasted sweet potato he had just bought.
It took over ten minutes for Shi Xiayao to receive a message from her boss. During the wait, she nearly couldn’t resist going into the office to gently remind Gu Yuanqiao that it was time to leave. After confirming there was no order from Sheng Yannian to kick the man out, she went to the pantry to brew a cup of black tea to bring to Gu Yuanqiao. Having worked with Sheng Yannian for so long, she had long known he was someone with a hard mouth but a soft heart; as long as there was no clear refusal or denial, it meant it was okay. Therefore, she had to treat Gu Yuanqiao, who was staying in the office, as President Sheng’s good friend, and the courtesies couldn’t be dropped.
“Knock, knock, knock.” Gu Yuanqiao was pulled back to reality by the knocking, followed by a female voice, “Excuse me, may I come in?” “Please.” After receiving permission, Shi Xiayao entered with the black tea. The tea was still steaming, and she hadn’t used cheap tea bags; the scent drifting over allowed Gu Yuanqiao to judge that it was properly brewed, high-quality tea leaves. “Mr. Gu, would you like a cup of black tea?” “Thank you, that’s kind of you.” Gu Yuanqiao glanced at it, knowing it was prepared for him, so he didn’t refuse. “You’re welcome.” Shi Xiayao was experienced; she didn’t get dazed by Gu Yuanqiao’s smile like Shen An did. She placed the teacup neatly on the coffee table without any unnecessary movements. “Do you need anything else?” “No, thank you.” “Alright, if you have any needs later, you can find me. My name is Shi Xiayao, President Sheng’s assistant.” “Understood, thank you, Miss Shi.” Gu Yuanqiao smiled and watched her leave before slumping back onto the sofa. As for the cup of tea on the table, he didn’t even plan to look at it. He knew just from the smell how strong it was. Putting aside drinking tea on an empty stomach, if he drank this cup, he would be forced to “fight” until dawn.
However, the black tea did smell very good… The hum of the air conditioner was actually very quiet, but in the office where he was the only one left, Gu Yuanqiao caught it perfectly. The sound was not too far or too close, and the rhythmic noise seemed to have a hypnotic effect. Gu Yuanqiao followed that rhythm in his heart, counting it vaguely, and his eyelids closed involuntarily. He shouldn’t be sending himself off like this in a strange environment, but besides the smell of black tea, there was a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose. He couldn’t name the scent, but he was very familiar with it; it seemed to be the scent on Sheng Yannian, which he had smelled when he was at Sheng Yannian’s house. After realizing this, the rationality he had been tightly holding onto loosened, and a surge of inexplicable peace washed over his heart. He was truly too tired, and before he could sort out why he had such emotions, he completely lost consciousness and fell asleep.
When Sheng Yannian opened the office door after dropping off his niece, he saw the sight of Gu Yuanqiao having fallen fast asleep. The man was leaning against the sofa, his head slightly tilted back, his neck resting against the back of the sofa, still wearing those gold-rimmed glasses. If it weren’t for the fact that he had opened the door and the other party hadn’t moved, Sheng Yannian would have suspected Gu Yuanqiao was pulling some trick. Realizing the man was asleep, Sheng Yannian softened his movements and tiptoed toward Gu Yuanqiao. After getting extremely close and still seeing no sign of the man waking up—at most, he just furrowed his brow—Sheng Yannian laughed softly, unsure if he should call this person’s vigilance strong or weak.
Sheng Yannian saw the black tea on the table, untouched and already cold, knowing it must have been brewed by Shi Xiayao. If he didn’t want to drink it, he could have just refused, but he had to maintain that hypocritical facade of being decent. Sometimes he wanted to ask Gu Yuanqiao if that kind of ethereal thing was really that important; he was tired just watching it. Sheng Yannian stared for a while, then picked up the black tea and brought it out of the office. Before opening the door, he looked at the black tea in his hand, stayed silent for three seconds, and then decided to take a big gulp. In an instant, only half of the black tea remained in the cup. “….” The bitterness of the tea spread in his mouth; it really was awful.
As soon as he exited the office, Shi Xiayao came over and took the teacup from his hand. “Xiayao.” “Hmm? Is there anything you need, President Sheng?” Shi Xiayao paused while turning. “You…” Sheng Yannian stopped mid-sentence; he felt that what he wanted to do was a bit stupid. “Hmm?” Shi Xiayao rarely saw Sheng Yannian in such a hesitant state, thinking the other party had encountered some difficult problem, and her expression turned serious. People at the nearby workstations were also quietly observing from the corner of their eyes; even the sound of typing had ceased, fearing they would miss something.
Sheng Yannian pursed his lips, thinking internally, *Forget it, what happens to that guy has nothing to do with me anyway.* But just as he was about to speak, the image of Gu Yuanqiao sleeping on the sofa flashed through his mind, along with his furrowed brow. So his words veered off, saying what he originally intended to say. “Do you have a blanket?” “…?” Shi Xiayao’s expression went blank. What was that? “????” The eavesdroppers: What the heck? “….” Sheng Yannian naturally didn’t miss the flicker of blankness on his assistant’s face, nor the many curious, probing gazes. He pursed his lips slightly, a sense of shame rising from the soles of his feet. Who could tell him why he wanted to do such a stupid thing?! But words spoken are like water poured out. He tried to ignore the gazes and explained calmly: “It’s just the blanket you guys usually cover yourselves with during your lunch break.” “….” Shi Xiayao also tried to ignore Sheng Yannian’s already reddened ears. “I’m sorry, President Sheng, I don’t have one.” “…Then never mind…” Sheng Yannian understood. Also, his assistant loved work even more than he did; he had never seen her take a break in the company. “If you need one, I can ask the others.” Shi Xiayao conscientiously proposed a new solution. “….” Sheng Yannian’s words got stuck. “That would be a bother.” “Alright, any requirements?” “….?” What requirements could a blanket have? But in the end, Sheng Yannian did suggest one: “Ask if they have a new one; if not, then a freshly washed one. If neither, just take any one.” “Okay.” After saying that, Shi Xiayao turned and walked toward the crowd, while Sheng Yannian remained where he was, waiting for the blanket.
In the end, Shi Xiayao brought back a very cartoonish blanket, seemingly featuring a magical girl. It was clear at a glance that it was a girl’s blanket. Shi Xiayao said it was a blanket from an intern who had just arrived and hadn’t used it yet. “….” Sheng Yannian took the blanket with some reluctance, but then he thought, *Anyway, it’s not for me to cover up with.* “Thank you for me, and by the way, ask how much it is. I’ll buy it. Send me a message after you’ve paid, and I’ll transfer the money to you.” “…Okay.”
Sheng Yannian took the blanket and re-entered the office, walked over to Gu Yuanqiao, and bent over to cover him with the blanket. Then he stared at Gu Yuanqiao’s face for a while longer, raised his hand to gently remove the glasses, and placed them on the table. *He doesn’t even take off his glasses when he sleeps…* Actually, he didn’t quite understand what Gu Yuanqiao was wearing glasses for all day, given that he clearly wasn’t nearsighted. When they met after he returned to the country, he thought Gu Yuanqiao had become nearsighted in the years they hadn’t seen each other, until the days they lived together. He often saw the other party casually take off his glasses and then go about his business as usual. Removing the glasses, Sheng Yannian saw the faint bruises under Gu Yuanqiao’s eyes and remembered the way he had been acting flawed and frazzled ever since they bumped into each other today. *It seems he really has been very busy lately…*
Sheng Yannian didn’t know why, but his gaze was glued to the other’s face, unable to move. Seeing Gu Yuanqiao with his eyes closed made Sheng Yannian realize that perhaps what he liked least about the other person was those eyes. It is often said that eyes are the windows to the soul; the depths of Gu Yuanqiao’s eyes often contained complex emotions he couldn’t understand, just like the person himself. Gradually, his gaze was attracted to the mole on Gu Yuanqiao’s face, and by the time he realized it, his finger was already poking it. Seeing the person didn’t react, he gently swept over it with the pad of his finger. “Hmm…” This time, it successfully caused the person to let out a soft groan. “….” Sheng Yannian was startled, pulled his hand back, and his body began to hold its breath.
The image remained this way for dozens of seconds before Sheng Yannian confirmed there were no signs of the other waking up, then withdrew his hand and exhaled slowly. The warmth and tactile sensation of the other person seemed to remain on his fingertips, and he couldn’t help but rub them together. *Is he this defenseless? Is it just toward me, or…* Once the thought popped up, Sheng Yannian found it funny. Since when did he like being so sentimental? The other party was just too tired, that’s all.
At this point, the sun had completely set, and the twilight blue sky made the room quite dim, while many neon lights outside the building had also been lit. Sheng Yannian turned on the small light in the back of the room, not wanting to disturb Gu Yuanqiao’s sleep. Time continued to tick by; even when off-duty time arrived, Gu Yuanqiao still showed no signs of waking up. Sheng Yannian saved the completed work documents and looked up toward Gu Yuanqiao. *So tired? Surely he hasn’t been awake every night these past few days?* Sheng Yannian stood up, hesitating whether to go call Gu Yuanqiao to get up; after all, he was about to leave too. But before he could make a decision, Gu Yuanqiao’s phone, which was on the table, rang. Sheng Yannian, before he had thought it through, sat back in his chair, reopened the file he had just closed, and pretended to read it. “….” This behavior was stupid to the extreme.
Over there, the phone rang several times before Gu Yuanqiao slowly opened his eyes, reached out to find the source of the sound, picked up his phone, answered it, and put it to his ear. “…Hello?” The moment he spoke, his voice was hoarse. He coughed lightly, wanting to find the cup of black tea he had left on the table before falling asleep. But after scanning, he didn’t find the black tea; instead, he discovered his glasses. He had no choice but to put them on first. It was Ruan Yi, Wen Han’s fiancée. Calling at this time must be because of family business. Annoying. “Yuanqiao, a new type of drug has become popular on the market in Country Y recently.” Ruan Yi sensed that Gu Yuanqiao was in a very bad mood, and Wen Han had mentioned to her that they were both very busy these past few days. “…Drugs?” Gu Yuanqiao’s brain spun, remembering how his second uncle had wanted to get into the drug business to make a huge profit earlier, fortunately being forced to stop in the end. So, they weren’t giving up, were they? Gu Yuanqiao’s voice wasn’t loud, but Sheng Yannian wasn’t deaf, so naturally, he heard it. He couldn’t help but feel a skip in his heart. Was Gu Yuanqiao going to touch drugs? No, the tone didn’t sound right… that meant there was someone around him trying to cause trouble?
In the upper-class circle, there were also some people with nothing better to do who sought excitement; there were young masters and misses who got high on that stuff out of hotheadedness. But none of them had a good ending. Once you become addicted to that stuff, no matter how glorious you were in the past, your future is finished. Gu Yuanqiao, a man who cared so much about his face, wouldn’t be that stupid. But Sheng Yannian still couldn’t help but frown and look over at Gu Yuanqiao.
“No,” Ruan Yi knew what Gu Yuanqiao was thinking and hurriedly denied it. “It’s a kind of thing similar to an aphrodisiac, called ‘Aphrodite’.” “‘Aphrodite’? Aphrodite?” Gu Yuanqiao let out a light sneer, showing no attempt to hide his disdain. “How boring.” Ruan Yi didn’t deny it and continued to report, “‘Aphrodite’ is spreading very quickly, taking less than a month from its appearance to its prevalence. Now many upper-class figures are using it. And the price isn’t expensive; many middle-class people can also buy it if they work hard. Furthermore, this drug has a certain level of addictiveness if used too much… Some people in the main family are also using it.” “…And then what?” Gu Yuanqiao had nothing to say about those people in the family who were holding him back. Anyway, as long as they obediently acted as vases and didn’t get in his way, he didn’t mind them gnawing on the assets of the Gu family. “I’ve sent the content related to ‘Aphrodite’ to your mailbox, and we also found that the source of this drug might… might be related to the Gu family.”
“….” Gu Yuanqiao took a deep breath. Although he had guessed that Ruan Yi calling him certainly wasn’t just to tell him about the appearance of this drug, hearing that worst-case scenario still ignited a rage within him. “Investigate, investigate for me exactly who is messing with this kind of thing. For now, leave the stuff on the second uncle’s side alone; what we have is enough for now.” “Understood.” Before hanging up the phone, Ruan Yi still ventured to remind Gu Yuanqiao: “When we were tracking some of the sources, we found that some drugs had already flowed into other countries, and China might be one of them. We haven’t found the antidote for this drug yet; we only know that its potency is very strong, stronger than any other aphrodisiac on the market. In Country Y, one or two people have already died thinking this was it. You need to be careful yourself.” She hadn’t forgotten about Gu Yuanqiao being drugged just after arriving in the country; it had nearly scared her to death. “…I know.” *Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.* After that night, Gu Yuanqiao had become full of vigilance toward all kinds of outside food and drink.
After the call hung up, he lay back on the sofa, his thoughts slowly pulling together, and he also discovered the blanket covering his body. It was a very girly blanket; it seemed it was something someone had borrowed from others. “You…” Sheng Yannian over there watched Gu Yuanqiao still staring blankly, while he himself kept thinking about the problem he just heard. But before he could ask, Gu Yuanqiao over there got up. The lights were dim, and he couldn’t see the other’s expression clearly. The other person tidied up his clothes. “Thanks.” The tone was relaxed, and he was even smiling. It felt like a casual, polite exchange between good friends. But Sheng Yannian knew that in the places he couldn’t see, there was Gu Yuanqiao’s coldness and detachment. Gu Yuanqiao didn’t intend to give him a chance to ask, so he closed his mouth too. Last time he caught Gu Yuanqiao on the phone, it was already stepping over the line.
The small lamp in the office and the neon lights from the window cast many different colors onto Sheng Yannian. Gu Yuanqiao looked at the complexity and silence in the other person, then smiled. “I’m leaving now. You should also get off work early.” “Hmm…” Sheng Yannian replied softly. At the moment Gu Yuanqiao opened the door, the employees outside who were preparing to leave were noisy and rowdy, and his voice merged into the crowd. He didn’t know if the person who left had heard it.
Today is a little President Sheng who is acting sneaky~
