"His temper is getting worse and worse; he completely ignores my messages and calls."

Gong Xiaochen's chilling voice came from behind.

Wen Shengsheng's back stiffened, and she pretended to be focused on arranging the food, "How could I dare? I've just been too busy with work to look at it."

"Heh~" Gong Xiaochen chuckled mockingly and placed a paper bag on the table.

Wen Shengsheng glanced at it and felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

Immediately, Gong Xiaochen took the initiative to get her a meal, took the contents out of the paper bag, inserted a straw, and pushed it in front of her.

"A cup of trendy coffee costing 108 yuan, let's try it, Wenzhou University's talented girl."

"..."

This brand is a chain, with stores in Haicheng and Beijing.

Wen Shengsheng was stunned for a moment, then asked suspiciously, "What do you mean? Is Young Master Gong trying to coax me?"

“You can think of it that way.” Gong Xiaochen raised an eyebrow. “We’ll be living under the same roof from now on. If I offend you, I’m afraid you’ll rape and then kill me in the middle of the night.”

"..."

Wen Shengsheng was both annoyed and amused. She picked up the coffee on the table and took a small sip.

"Wow~" she exclaimed, feigning delight, "The proprietress has excellent taste; this coffee is delicious!"

Gong Xiaochen's face darkened instantly.

"Shut up!"

The darker Gong Xiaochen's face became, the happier Wen Shengsheng was. She happily began to eat, her face showing a rare display of girlish innocence and childlike charm.

The meal was quite enjoyable.

Wen Shengsheng packed up the lunchbox, preparing to take it back to the 6th floor.

Gong Xiaochen called out to her.

"We've finished eating. Now, I have two things to say!"

Wen Shengsheng frowned, "You want me to agree to two things over one meal?"

Gong Xiaochen glanced at her. "Did that cup of coffee end up in a dog's stomach?"

Wen Shengsheng rolled her eyes and pouted, "Young Master Gong, please speak."

"First, don't mention the words 'boss's wife' to me again!"

"Secondly, from now on, you're not allowed to ignore my messages!"

Wen Shengsheng crossed her arms and pondered.

"If you dare to bargain, then don't mention Ruth to me again."

Tsk!

These words struck at her very core.

"Understood, Your Highness, I will take my leave now. Please take your afternoon rest."

After speaking, she picked up her lunchbox and walked out of the CEO's office, where she bumped into Chen Ze, who was returning home, and even smiled at him.

She has a naturally pure and innocent look, and when she smiles, she is charming and bright, with a hint of mischief.

Chen Ze blushed slightly.

"Young Master Gong, have you noticed? Miss Wen isn't so expressionless lately; she's smiling more and more."

Gong Xiaochen glanced at him, "I'm not laughing for you." As he finished speaking, a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.

Chen Ze clicked his tongue, shook his head with a smile, and said nothing more.

Although the Wing Loong Shield project has ended, the colleagues who spent a month together developed a bond with each other.

So, on Friday night, a few colleagues and I made plans to have dinner together.

Wen Shengsheng is rather aloof at work, so she doesn't have many friends.

However, she is very responsible at work, and everyone has a good impression of her, so they invited her to the dinner party as well.

In her previous life, Wen Shengsheng got married right after graduating from university and was kept at home by Xi Yu every day, just like a housewife.

In this life, she not only has her own job, but also so many more colleagues.

She really wanted to make the most of this opportunity, so she asked Gong Xiaochen for leave before leaving get off work, saying she couldn't cook for him that night.

Gong Xiaochen happened to have a social engagement that evening, so he readily agreed.

*

The place for dinner was a high-end tea restaurant with an antique ambiance, and opera performances were also offered inside.

However, Wen Shengsheng and the others were sitting in a private box, so they couldn't watch the performance.

The people who arrived that evening were mostly young people who had recently joined the company. Pang Hui was also there, and they warmly welcomed Wen Shengsheng to her seat.

After we ordered, a colleague mentioned that Liang Fei was also coming.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Liang Fei entered with three men.

Everyone was initially surprised, and then Liang Fei explained that the three men were also from Qingshan Capital, but they were veterans from other departments.

He is considered a senior colleague in the company.

Although Wen Shengsheng and the others were surprised, they immediately stood up and greeted them.

Liang Fei smiled and said, "I mentioned that we had a get-together today, and these three seniors said they wanted to come and get acquainted with each other as well."

As she spoke, she invited everyone to sit down, seemingly oblivious to the awkwardness that might have arisen from bringing people along without her consent.

After everyone was seated, Wen Shengsheng realized that the three seniors were sitting right next to her, seemingly glancing at her.

Fortunately, Pang Hui was on her other side.

After all the dishes were served and several rounds of drinks were consumed, the atmosphere gradually warmed up, and several young male colleagues took the lead in walking around and toasting.

Because of the drugging incident last time, Wen Shengsheng didn't dare to drink much.

The man sitting next to Wen Shengsheng, around forty years old, named Ding Sicheng, said he was also in the investment department.

He's chubby, but he looks quite kind.

He kept praising Wen Shengsheng for being beautiful and talented, saying that he would definitely give her more opportunities to work with him in the future.

Wen Shengsheng felt a little grateful and unconsciously chatted with him for a couple of minutes.

Ding Sicheng clinked his wine glass with Wen Shengsheng's, then downed the red wine in one gulp.

Seeing this, Wen Shengsheng also tilted her head back, but in order to stay sober, she only drank half of it.

Unexpectedly, Ding Sicheng's displeased voice came from that moment.

"Sheng Sheng, you can't do this. I've already finished my drink, and you've only had half." He then put his chubby hand on Wen Sheng Sheng's shoulder. "You're new to the job, so you don't understand. Today, I'll teach you a basic rule: at the dinner table, you have to drink the same amount as the other person."

Out of an instinctive aversion to contact with the opposite sex, Wen Shengsheng felt slightly uncomfortable and subtly avoided his hand.

At this moment, Pang Hui stood up and said, "Come on, Mr. Ding, I'll drink with you. Girls don't have a high alcohol tolerance, so don't make things difficult for Sheng Sheng."

"That won't do." Ding Sicheng waved him away. "Drinking at work is unavoidable. Besides, I'm drinking with Sheng Sheng, it's not your turn yet. Xiao Pang, sit down!"

"Come on, Sheng Sheng, hurry up and finish your drink." Perhaps the alcohol was getting to him, Ding Sicheng's originally kind face suddenly became stern.

He pointed to Wen Shengsheng's wine glass, "After you finish your drink, I'll tell you some negotiation skills for the investment department. Consider it my guidance as a senior in advance."

At this point, it was definitely not an option to refuse. After hesitating for a moment, Wen Shengsheng finished the glass of red wine.

Seeing this, Ding Sicheng immediately pretended to chat with her about work again.

Wen Shengsheng listened attentively, since Ba Wen would be leading her on a project next week, and it would be good for her to know more about it.

Seeing that they were chatting happily, the remaining two men also came over and said a few words every now and then.

At this moment, Wen Shengsheng finally realized something was wrong and couldn't help but look at Liang Fei.

She saw Liang Fei looking at her smugly, her eyes filled with provocation.

Wen Shengsheng understood instantly.

Liang Fei brought these three people here because she wanted to target her!
