Normally, it should be the normal working hours now. However, since Su Yanqing was still asleep and the boss Xiao Chuyi was also handling business inside, no one dared to rush in and disturb them.

It was not until around three o'clock in the afternoon, when the sunlight slanted into the room and illuminated everything, that Su Yanqing finally opened her hazy eyes.

Suddenly, a feeling of hunger spread throughout my body, and my stomach began to rumble in protest.

At this moment, she couldn't help but curse the man who was working attentively next to her several times in her heart.

This is a typical practice of just wanting people to work but not providing corresponding benefits!

At this moment, Xiao Chuyi, who was busy at the computer, heard a noise not far away. He turned around and saw Su Yanqing, who looked tired but hungry. He said, "Wait a minute, I'll go heat up some food for you."

As he said that, he stood up and took the remaining food on the plate and walked towards the microwave in the pantry.

Some colleagues who passed by along the way cast meaningful glances at him: After all, it had been so long since noon that the boss only remembered to take care of the secretary. This behavior was a bit too much.

Moreover, combined with the news he had heard not long ago, everyone's eyes when looking at him were filled with an indescribable emotion...

Finally having something to eat, Su Yanqing felt like she had regained her energy.

But soon she found that Xiao Chuyi's eyes were always on her, which made her a little confused.

When he looked down, he saw some small red spots on his neck, all marks caused by him. Only then did he realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Xiao Chuyi, are you crazy?"

She questioned with a frown, a hint of reproach in her eyes.

Although it was still early autumn, Su Yanqing was only wearing a thin dress and a sweater jacket, which could not cover the kiss marks.

She felt very embarrassed.

Realizing the potential trouble this issue might cause, Xiao Chuyi quickly took out his phone and called his secretary for help: "Xiao Gao, go buy me a scarf right away."

"it is good."

Xiao Gao agreed reluctantly, but his heart was full of self-blame.

He thought that if he didn't go to eat lunch, he might be able to shield them from the public, at least preventing their privacy from being exposed.

Not long after, when Xiao Gao came back with a box containing an Hermès scarf, the female colleagues in the company suddenly became excited and cast curious glances at him.

Everyone was very interested in this sudden incident and speculated what had happened.

Xiao Chuyi personally helped Su Yanqing tie the newly bought silk scarf, and only let go after repeatedly confirming that no part that should not be exposed was exposed.

However, doing so only attracts more attention and makes the matter even more obvious, making people around them even more curious about the relationship between the man and woman.

"Why buy something so high-end? Can't you just find something cheaper?"

Su Yanqing asked in confusion.

"This thing is of good quality! Someone like my Yanqing needs the best."

Xiao Chuyi smiled and said, "Why don't we get off work early tonight and go home together? It's almost time to get off work."

"No, I'm so tired now and I want to go home and sleep right away."

Su Yanqing looked very tired. "This sofa is really uncomfortable."

"Then I'll arrange to get a more comfortable sofa tomorrow."

Xiao Chuyi said without hesitation.

Hearing this, Su Yanqing instantly understood something and her face began to turn pale.

She suddenly realized that Xiao Chuyi always seemed to want to control everything about her.

Seeing her expression change from surprise to anger, Xiao Chuyi smiled slightly, reached out and gently stroked her hair and said, "So cute!"

Then he added gently, "Okay, then you go back first. Let the driver drive you back slowly. Remember to have a good rest. See you tonight."

Su Yanqing, who had been planning to leave immediately, immediately exploded upon hearing this. Her face flushed red as she yelled, "How dare you say that! Be careful or I'll fight you to the death!"

She was so angry that her voice trembled.

It seems that I must leave here as soon as possible, otherwise I might hear some speechless words.

So, Su Yanqing quickly picked up a silk scarf, wrapped it around her neck, and rushed out.

When she walked out of the room wearing the scarf, everyone in the office stared at her intently.

Feeling the gazes of the people around her, Su Yanqing felt very embarrassed, her cheeks became even redder, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace. She didn't even take the elevator, but chose to escape directly through the stairs.

"It seems that Mr. Xiao is not a gentleman."

A colleague next to him muttered quietly.

"It's just that he met the wrong people."

Another colleague echoed.

“When you meet the right person, everything will fall into place.”

The third colleague sighed.

Several gossipy female colleagues were whispering about this and mocking Su Xin, as if they were taking this opportunity to have some fun.

"Boss Xiao, Boss Pei wants to meet you tomorrow..."

Special assistant Xiao Gao stood aside looking somewhat helpless. It was obvious that this position was indeed a bit difficult for him to handle, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to work. After all, he could not help now and had to take the responsibility himself.

After returning to the villa halfway up the mountain, Su Yanqing completely forgot that there was someone else in the house. She immediately tore off the scarf around her neck and threw it hard onto the sofa next to her.

Then she turned around and hurried upstairs to rest.

Aunt Ying had just finished cleaning on the second floor and came down, and happened to run into Su Yanqing who was about to go upstairs.

When Aunt Ying accidentally saw her neck, she immediately understood what had happened.

Thinking about how slow it was to deliver lunch downstairs today, and in broad daylight...

Aunt Ying immediately uttered a low cry of surprise, "Ah!"

Su Yanqing covered her neck in panic and rushed into her room in a hurry, scaring Aunt Ying who was making the bed.

"Little girl, I've been through this myself, so don't be shy. How about I get you some medicine to relax your muscles and joints? This might be caused by practicing dancing for too long."

Aunt Ying tried to ease the atmosphere with an approachable tone, but it was obvious that her understanding was completely different from what Su Yanqing had experienced.

The room was silent and no one responded to her.

Looking at the closed door, Aunt Ying could only sigh softly, shook her head and walked away, thinking to herself: It's becoming increasingly difficult to guess what young people are thinking nowadays.

After finally dozing off for an hour, the shrill ringing of the cell phone was like a sharp knife piercing into Su Yanqing's newly peaceful dream.

When she opened her eyes and looked at the screen, she saw Zheng Juan's name prominently displayed on it. She felt a headache and really didn't want to answer the call.
