Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"
Chapter 128 Being a Boss Isn't Easy
Pfft…
Laughter came from the bedroom. Xu Tian breathed a sigh of relief; the fact that Chu Lan could laugh meant she wasn't so angry anymore.
"Then let me ask you, what did she mean when she said you're not her boyfriend yet?"
Just as Xu Tian was about to explain, he saw Chu Lan mutter to himself, annoyed, "So you mean you could become her boyfriend at any time, right?"
Xu Tian quickly said, "Of course not, that's just wishful thinking on her part, I have no such thoughts!"
"That won't do either. As punishment, you'll sleep by yourself tonight!" Chu Lan covered her mouth and chuckled.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Xu Tian tried to persuade Chu Lan again, but she still refused to open the door. Helpless, he had to go to another room.
After finding no movement outside the door, Chu Lan realized that he had really fallen asleep. If he had just said a few more sweet words to coax her, she would have opened the door!
Thinking of this, Chu Lan felt a little annoyed, but she still quietly unlocked the bedroom door. She didn't believe that Xu Tian would be able to stand the loneliness and would definitely sneak over in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Chu Lan changed into a rather sexy nightgown and lay on the bed in a seductive pose, hoping that Xu Tian would climb into her bed in the middle of the night.
Early in the morning, Xu Tian got up early to make a very lavish breakfast to express his apology, waiting for Chu Lan to get up.
Chu Lan walked out of the room with dark circles under her eyes and a resentful look in her eyes.
"Try my fried dough sticks, they're coated in egg, they won't taste good when they're cold."
Xu Tian diligently placed the food into Chu Lan's bowl.
Chu Lan looked at him with a hint of resentment, "You really fell asleep last night?"
Xu Tian was a little confused and just hummed in agreement.
Chu Lan snorted coldly, "I told you to sleep alone, so you went to sleep. Didn't you know to come find me?"
"Didn't you say you didn't want me to sleep with you? So I didn't dare bother you." Xu Tian scratched his head.
Chu Lan continued, "Don't you know that when a woman says no, she means yes? When I don't want you to sleep with me, it means I want it, I want it!"
Xu Tian suddenly realized what she meant and then looked at her with a puzzled expression, "You didn't stay up all night waiting for me, did you?"
As proud and aloof as Chu Lan was, how could she let Xu Tian know that she hadn't slept all night? She angrily took a bite of a fried dough stick and ate it.
"There's still porridge to cook. Eat slowly, don't choke!"
Xu Tian looked at her with doting eyes.
After dinner, Xu Tian drove Chu Lan to work. Chu Lan yawned constantly on the way, which made Xu Tian feel a little sorry for her.
Did you not sleep well last night?
Chu Lan said quietly, "I really didn't sleep well. Someone kept me up all night in my dreams!"
Xu Tian laughed and said, "How about this, you take a nap when you get to the company, I'll handle things, it's just a matter of looking at some documents!"
That's good, so he won't think being a CEO is so easy!
Back at the company, Chu Lan slept on the sofa with Xu Tian, while Xu Tian sat in the boss's chair and began reviewing documents, giving off a feeling of usurping the throne.
It seems that being a boss is quite enjoyable, especially being the boss of a large company!
However, Xu Tian soon became restless. Although the document was not thick, every decision he made affected the company's development, so he had to keep a clear head at all times to avoid making mistakes. Before long, Xu Tian's brain was almost shutting down.
It seems being a boss isn't easy!
However, he had already made a promise to do this, so he had to do it well. Especially when he saw Chu Lan sleeping peacefully on the sofa with a thin blanket, he felt as if he was filled with energy.
Finally, before lunch, he finished all the documents, and Chu Lan woke up at that moment.
"How much have you dealt with? Don't overwork yourself. I'll handle these this afternoon."
Looking at the focused Xu Tian, Chu Lan found herself developing a deeper dependence on him; it felt so good to have someone to rely on.
Xu Tian pushed the documents over, saying, "Everything's been taken care of. Take a look and see if there are any problems so I can correct them."
Chu Lan was surprised. It usually took her a whole day to process these documents, and sometimes she didn't even have time to eat lunch. Xu Tian had actually finished processing them in just one morning.
Thinking of this, Chu Lan quickly flipped through the documents that Xu Tian had processed, wanting to see if he had missed any approvals and to see where there were any problems in the processing.
Xu Tian, standing to the side, looked quite embarrassed. "I might be a little slow in processing this. Please take a look first. I might be able to speed things up once I'm more familiar with it."
It's true that comparisons are odious. She joined the Beijing headquarters right after graduation and worked hard until she was transferred to the branch office, which is now the Xu Group in Jiangcheng, five years later, as president. She never expected that she would be no match for Xu Tian, who was just starting out in the workplace.
Moreover, the solutions provided by Xu Tian in the document were almost perfect, leaving no room for criticism.
Thinking of this, Chu Lan's competitive spirit kicked in, which was really infuriating!
Is there a problem?
Xu Tian noticed that Chu Lan's expression was not good and hurriedly asked.
Chu Lan gave him a frustrated look, "From now on, I'll only be a useless person by your side."
Xu Tian realized this was a compliment, and he was delighted. He smiled and said, "If I'm more capable, your burden will be lighter."
"But I've been in this position for so many years, and to be outdone by you like this makes me really uncomfortable!"
Xu Tian comforted him, "You've gotten used to struggling alone all these years, but now that I'm here, you don't need to work so hard anymore, you know?"
His words struck a chord with Chu Lan, giving her a strong sense of security and warmth.
She grew up in an orphanage and always worked hard on her own. Even when she went to school, she worked part-time while studying until she reached a certain age. No one had ever treated her like Xu Tian.
Thinking of this, Chu Lan's inner wounds began to heal little by little, all because of having such a good man as Xu Tian by her side.
"I don't believe it. You're rich and good-looking, how could no one pursue you?" Xu Tian was skeptical.
Chu Lan snorted coldly, "That's different, how can they compare to you!"
"Okay, let's get serious. I can only have lunch with you today. I have things to do tonight."
Xu Tian asked, "What is it?"
Chu Lan explained it to him.
Because she herself was an orphan, she deeply empathizes with children who have lost their only child. Since she became financially capable, she has been helping these children by donating money and supplies.
There's a charity gala in Jiangcheng tonight, a fundraising event specifically for orphans, so she's going to attend.
"I'll go with you," Xu Tian said.
Chu Lan smiled and shook her head. Although she and Xu Tian had already established a relationship, she didn't want to reveal all her vulnerable side so quickly.
Xu Tian had no choice but to agree. After lunch, he took Chu Lan back to the company and then went to Su Zhen to inquire about the nature of the event.
Simply put, this kind of event is an auction, where a portion of the money raised from auctioned items is used to support children from impoverished families, so it is necessary to dress up formally.
Xu Tian thought for a moment, then remembered what Chu Lan had said last night: "When a woman says no, she really means yes!"
It seems she really wanted me to accompany her!
