Hu Lei did not know that there was a private exit which Zhong Feng used when he ca into the building. Since she was walking ahead of him, she headed towards the main entrance of the building. Zhong Feng did not stop her instead he sent a quick ssage for his car to be sent to the front as he followed.
He quickly caught up to her and placed his hand on her shoulder with a small smile on his face. She looked at him, her face still a little pink. She glared at him but did not shake his hand off.
"Why are you looking at like that? You are the one who wanted to try sothing exciting. I was rely indulging you and giving you a few more ideas." His face held amusent.
Hu Lei knew that she was being ridiculous since she was the one who started it. However, she had just been joking. When he started ntioning positions, it was like her mind could see everything clearly. It was a little too embarrassing.
"You are still talking about it?" She stuck out her elbow and nudged his abdon hard.
"There is no need to get violent. I can still make arrangents for the lift to stop next ti. Or perhaps we can try it in the car. I have heard that it is also quite an enlightening experience." He could not help wanting to tease her a little more.
When they entered the lobby of the building, there was deafening silence. It was already after the official work hours, but there still people around. So had been working a little while others were waiting for their companions.
What they did not expect was that they would see this type of scene. The legendary CEO was not seen often by the general employees even if they worked at the headquarters. It was difficult because he ca in extrely early and left late. Moreover, he never passed through common areas unless it was necessary.
It was said that this CEO was cold and forbidding. Apparently, he had an aura that naturally kept people from him. He inspired instinctual fear in those who t him. In essence, he was described like a fairy tale monster. According to rumours, though he was handso and wealthy, not many won dared to co near him. He was just too cold-faced.
When these people saw him smiling and his eyes looking at a woman with warmth, they felt like their views of life had been redefined. Those who had seen him before felt like he was a thousand tis more handso when he smiled. After all, no one liked an icy person who looked like they were owed millions of dollars.
Imdiately, there were controlled whispers in different areas of the lobby.
"Is that the CEO?"
"If he is not the CEO, are you?"
"I have heard that no one has ever seen him smile. Obviously, he is smiling and even looking at that woman with so indulgence."
"Who is that woman? I thought that the future madam of the Zhong family was going to be Bei Gong Jiu?"
"How could that be possible? Even if that family is not bad, it is definitely at the sa level as the Zhong family."
"Who is that woman? She does not look like a wealthy miss or even a celebrity."
"Perhaps she is from a powerful unknown family?"
"I have never heard that the CEO had a girlfriend. Even his connection to Bei Gong Jiu is a baseless rumour."
"If this woman is not his girlfriend, who could it be? Do you see that she is wearing his coat?"
So of the people talking wanted to take a photo of the couple, but no one dared. In comparison to having exclusive footage of Zhong Feng's girlfriend, they liked having a job even more. There were also those who thought that the little woman was completely not fitting for their CEO. However, no one dared speak about it.
They had heard that the CEO was tough but fair. However, he could also be cruel and unfeeling. No one knew where the rumours had co from, but it would be foolish to assu that there was no truth to it. After all, everyone had heard earlier how the beautiful Miss Lu, who was a project manager, had been dragged out by security earlier in the day.
Zhong Feng and Hu Lei left the building without paying much attention to the people. As soon as they were gone, discussions broke out and ssages were sent around the company about the mysterious lady wearing the CEO's coat.
"Why do we need to buy a new sweater? I have plenty of clothes at ho." Hu Lei asked as Zhong Feng held her hand and pulled her into a spacious shop in one of high-end eastside malls.
Actually, as Hu Lei was saying this, her large eyes were already on the clothes. She looked like she would jump out and hug the mannequins. Zhong Feng looked at her with a raised eyebrow. Her mouth was saying no, but her body was only being held back by his hand.
She truly could not resist nice things. He felt an overwhelming sadness when he thought about how she had lived her life before, unable to enjoy the simplest pleasures of life.
"Can I help you?" A beautiful shop assistant ca imdiately and spoke with calm politeness.
In her heart, she was excited. As soone who had worked in high-end shops, she had a keen eye for major sales opportunities. The girl did not look like much. However, the man looked wealthy and indulgent toward the woman. These were the people who always bought too much.
"We are looking for a warm sweater or cardigan." Zhong Feng spoke.
The shop attendant was imdiately disappointed. It seed like they were only here because the girl did not have a sweater for the cold evening. However, her disappointnt could not be compared to Hu Lei's. She had not had an opportunity to shop for clothes properly. She had a lot of good stuff, but they had all been bought by Zhong Feng. Shopping was an experience in itself.
Seeing that crestfallen face, Zhong Feng laughed. He never intended to stop her from buying sothing else, but he thought it was better to buy what she needed first. Hu Lei looked up and realised that she had been too transparent.
"Go ahead." He smiled at her blushing face.
Hu Lei's annoyance at being teased constantly by Zhong Feng faded as she ignored him and floated around the shop like a butterfly, picking out clothes to try on. The attendant also had a wide smile. She liked custors like Hu Lei most. They could never resist anything pretty and were open to suggestions.
The shopping trip did not stop there. Hu Lei was on a roll. She pulled Zhong Feng into another shop and then another. The word self-control ant nothing to her. She had quickly beco a top custor in a lot of shops. Zhong Feng's face had beco dark because he had underestimated her power.
When he could no longer carry the bags anymore, he called Housekeeper Li at the villa and asked him to send another vehicle. His current car was too small and not ant for handling cargo. After a long, long ti, Hu Lei finally concluded her spree.
"Ah-Feng, I got sothing for you." Hu Lei said as they walked to the parking lot. Zhong Feng noticed that she was indeed carrying a bag that he had not noticed. He had thought that she had not bought anything at the last shop.
She took out a thick light blue scarf from the bag. She motioned for him to lower his head. She placed the scarf around his neck and arranged it beautifully. Even though he was now wearing his full black suit, the effect was not bad.
She tugged the scarf a little, forcing Zhong Feng to bend a little more. Before he knew what was happening, she pressed her lips to his in an unusually chaste kiss. However, he felt it penetrate right into the deepest part of his heart.
