The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

"President Xu, here's your..." Before she could finish speaking, the assistant saw Xu Xi, whose clothes were disheveled, on the sofa, and Wen Yao, who was hugging her leg intimately. She immediately froze, and the envelope in her hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

In that instant, she seemed to see a ticket to Africa beckoning to her.

Xu Xi and Wen Yao were also stunned. Looking at each other's embarrassed expressions, their brains went blank for a moment, and the office fell into a deathly silence.

Wen Yao quickly released her grip on Xu Xi's leg and moved to the other side of the sofa. Her face felt as hot as if it were on fire, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to bury herself in.

Xu Xi was the first to react. She cleared her throat, trying to ease her embarrassment, and looked at her female assistant with feigned composure, asking, "Is there something you need?"

The assistant hurriedly bent down to pick up the envelope from the ground, held it in both hands, and carefully handed it to Xu Xi, his voice trembling: "Ms. Xu, here is a letter for you."

Xu Xi took the letter, a look of confusion on her face.

She buys things online, rarely leaving her company address, and usually communicates about work matters via email.

Who would send her such a traditional letter in this age of advanced internet technology?

But when she saw the familiar handwriting on the envelope—"To Xiaoxi"—the doubt in her eyes instantly vanished, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips. She instantly guessed the sender's identity.

"I understand, you can go now," Xu Xi said calmly, waving to her female assistant.

But these words struck the female assistant like a bolt from the blue; she was so shocked that her breath caught in her throat.

Could this "go" mean "go to Africa"?

I'm doomed. I accidentally stumbled upon the president and vice president's secret, and I'm definitely going to be killed to silence them.

A cold sweat instantly broke out on her back, her legs felt as heavy as if they were welded to the ground, and she couldn't move an inch. Her face turned deathly pale.

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Xi looked at her, who was so nervous that she was about to cry. She was both amused and exasperated. She explained helplessly, "I've accepted this letter. Go and do what you need to do. Don't just stand here."

Immediately afterwards, her face darkened, the gentleness in her eyes vanished, and was replaced by a cold chill.

She stood up, walked to her female assistant, and said coldly.

"If I hear any inappropriate rumors in the company in the future, I guarantee that your name will be on the next list of people transferred to Africa."

The female assistant trembled with fear at the terrifying aura emanating from her. She swallowed hard, her teeth chattering, and nodded frantically, "Yes, yes, Mr. Xu! I understand! I didn't see or hear anything!"

The next second, Xu Xi switched back to her kind and gentle demeanor, patted her female assistant's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Thank you for delivering the letter. Go on with your work."

The female assistant was so frightened by this sudden turn of events that she didn't dare to stay any longer. She quickly bowed and fled from Wen Yao's office as if she were escaping, forgetting to even close the door.

Watching her retreating figure, Wen Yao's shame gradually faded, replaced by anger: "How rude! Doesn't she know how to knock before entering an office? I'm going to go to the administration department and dock her pay!"

"Relax, Yao Yao." Xu Xi returned to the sofa, sat down slowly, buttoned up her coat, put her torn stockings back on, and smiled reassuringly, "This assistant is new and may not know the company rules yet, so let's let her off the hook."

Wen Yao sighed and smoothed her messy hair. "It's all up to His Majesty to decide."

After saying that, her gaze fell on the envelope in Xu Xi's hand, and her eyes instantly lit up with curiosity. She leaned closer and asked, "By the way, Xi Bao, who sent the letter?"

Xu Xi did not answer, but held the envelope, a shy blush appearing on her pretty face.

"Oh~" Wen Yao instantly understood what was going on, a mischievous smile appeared on her face, she moved even closer, and said with a wink.

"Xu Nian has finally figured it out! He actually sent you a love letter! Let me see what he wrote!"

"Go away, go away." Xu Xi blushed and pushed Wen Yao aside in annoyance.

She carefully opened the envelope, took out a neatly folded piece of paper, and gently unfolded it. While reading the contents carefully, she kept a watchful eye on Wen Yao, who might try to peek at her at any moment.

The more Xu Xi looked, the more her lips curved into a smile. In the end, she covered her burning face and let out a shy whimper, her eyes filled with sweetness.

"AUV, what sweet talk? It's made our Xi Bao completely swoon!"

Taking advantage of Xu Xi's inattention, Wen Yao suddenly reached out to snatch the letter, but Xu Xi reacted quickly, protecting the letter in her arms and holding it tightly, not letting her touch it at all, like a kitten guarding its food, as if it was about to hiss at any moment.

"Hmph, I can't show it to you." Xu Xi carefully folded the letter, put it in the envelope, then stood up and ran out of the office.

"Hey, don't go, Xi Bao!" Wen Yao quickly got up and chased after her, shouting as she went, "I won't steal your precious love letter, okay? Just help me beat up the Yellow Wind Monkey King first!"

Xu Xi turned around, made a face at her, and said with a grin, "Hehe~ You can type it yourself, I'm going on a date with my brother, bye-bye~"

As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and went back to Wen Yao's office, quickly grabbed a few bottles of cosmetics from the desk, and stuffed them into her bag.

"Aaaaah! Put it there!"

Wen Yao panicked immediately and pounced on her, trying to snatch the bottles and jars back from her hands. "These are all limited editions. I had a hard time getting them. Don't take them!"

Unfortunately, Xu Xi was far more agile than her. With a few quick dodges, Wen Yao missed her target and didn't even manage to touch the hem of her clothes.

"Hehe, don't be so stingy." Xu Xi playfully stuck out her tongue and made a face at Wen Yao. "Let me borrow it for a bit, I'll return it to you next time~"

After saying those words, she skipped and hopped out of Wen Yao's office like a gust of wind.

Watching her happy retreating figure, Wen Yao stomped her feet in anger, shouting as if on the verge of tears, "Damn it, that wretched Xi Bao! She values ​​her boyfriend more than her friends! Morally corrupt! Has no bottom line! She's not ashamed at all! She's proud of it!"
