After being utterly exhausted from the previous night, Xia Yangyang overslept.
Despite setting an alarm on her phone, it unbelievably didnโt go off.
Suddenly sitting up, Xia Yangyang startled the slumbering man next to her.
Waking up grumpy, the man slightly grumbled, โWhat on earth are you doing so early in the morning?โ
Panicked, Xia Yangyang said, โItโs already eight, Iโm late for work.โ
Just as she was about to hustle out of bed, she was pulled back by Gu Qichen.
He held her tight and said, โGiven youโre already late, why not stay in bed with me a bit longer?โ
Xia Yangyang was reluctant, but she dared not refuse.
Luckily, Gu Qichen seemed to drift back to sleep, allowing her to gently sneak away from his embrace.
Just when she was nearly out of his grasp, he suddenly opened his eyes and warned her with a hoarse voice, โXia Yangyang, havenโt you heard itโs dangerous to act like a caterpillar first thing in the morning?โ
Before she could react, he pulled her back and pressed her down.
By the time Xia Yangyang got to the office, it was already half-past nine.
Xiao Man leaned over and asked, โYangyang, why are you so late today?โ
Images of this morningโs intimate scene flashed in Xia Yangyangโs mind and her face turned bright red.
Xiao Man commented, โYour face is so red, are you running a fever?โ
Quickly coming up with a cover story, Xia Yangyang said, โMy pet dog at home is too clingy, I couldnโt leave.โ
Just as she finished speaking, Xiao Man nudged her arm, โThe CEO is here.โ
As expected, Gu Qichen walked past them, pausing ever so slightly as though he was glancing in Xia Yangyangโs direction.
Xia Yangyang held her breath; hopefully, he didnโt overhear anything. freeweb(n)ovel.co(m)
Once Gu Qichen entered his office, Lu Xiaoman sighed, โWhen the CEO glared at you just now, I thought he would summon you to his office for a scolding again, Yangyang. Youโre lucky today; you were late, but so was the CEO.โ
Of course, Gu Qichen was late; they came together.
Luckily, no one saw Xia Yangyang getting out of Gu Qichenโs car.
Standing nearby, Lin Yuanyuan overheard Xia Yangyang and Lu Xiaomanโs conversation and asked, โYangyang, you have a pet dog? What breed is it?โ ๐ฏ๐๐ฎ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ค๐ซ๐ฎ๐.๐ฌ๐ค๐ข
Taken aback, Xia Yangyang blurted out, โTeddy.โ
If Gu Qichen found out that Xia Yangyang compared him to a teddy dog, he probably wouldnโt let her off easy.
However, he probably didnโt have the time to attend to her now, because he had to leave for a business trip in the afternoon.
Before boarding the plane, Gu Qichen sent a text to Xia Yangyang (Going on a business trip to Tokyo, will be back in three days).
They had been secretly married for three months, and Gu Qichen spent half of his time traveling for work. But regardless of where he went, he always sent Xia Yangyang a text message before his flight.
Xia Yangyangโs internship was going to finish in a week.
She was just hoping to pass it smoothly and return to school.
Little did she know, a bewildering event would occur the next day.
As soon as Xia Yangyang arrived at the office the next day, she found many people gathered around her desk.
Walking over, she saw a giant bouquet of roses on her desk.
A colleague looked at Xia Yangyang with a hint of envy, โYangyang, who sent these? They are so extravagant! Ninety-nine multicolored roses, thatโs worth three months of our salaries!โ
Xia Yangyang was also puzzled; there was a note on it.
After reading the note, her face turned pale instantly.
She picked up the roses and tossed them into the nearby trash bin.
Everyone was confused. A colleague whispered, โYangyang, did your boyfriend send these? Have you two had a fight?โ
Another colleague said, โIf my boyfriend used ninety-nine multicolored roses to coax me, I would forgive him immediately.โ
Xia Yangyang didnโt explain anything. Seeing her demeanor, everyone decided not to ask any more questions.
The whole day, Xia Yangyang was On edge. It wasnโt until she left work and saw Lu Haotianโs car parked outside the company building that she finally relaxed.
