27: Chapter 27: Seeing Yan Suli Again 27: Chapter 27: Seeing Yan Suli Again Although Chen Wei felt nothing, Lin Miaoke thought that successfully convincing him to pretend to be her boyfriend and take a photo with her had already drained a lot of her energy, blood, sweat, and courage!
“Asking the master to pretend to be my boyfriend and attend the gathering with , if Sister Bai finds out, she definitely won’t let off.” Lin Miaoke had yet to respond for a long ti, lying on the bed, rolling from the head to the foot and then back from the foot to the head, deeply troubled.
Had she known it would co to this, she should never have bragged, truly a mont of braggadocio followed by endless regret…
Rolling and rolling, she unexpectedly fell asleep unknowingly, entering dreamland, and her phone automatically turned off the screen after five minutes.
“Ugh…”
Groggily opening her eyes, it was already the next day’s early morning, sunlight filtering through the curtains and falling upon Chen Wei, who was propped against a window outside, dazed, his gaze slowly focusing until he could clearly see the pattern of the lamp on the ceiling.
Suddenly sitting up with a start, he raised his arm, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, “How, how did I fall asleep!”
Thud thud thud!
At this mont, there ca a knocking at the door, as well as Lin Yibai’s voice, “Miaoke, get up, it’s ti to make breakfast for the masters.”
“Oh!
Okay.” Lin Miaoke hurriedly replied.
Picking up her phone, she sent a ssage saying sorry, I was too tired and fell asleep last night, see you in the evening!
In any case, delay if possible; besides that, Lin Miaoke really could not think of any other better solutions.
Seeing the ssage saying I was too tired and fell asleep last night, and then thinking back to the photo of Chen Wei, Han Xueling, and Lin Wei, Dai Jiajia looking at each other and smiling, she was both envious and blushing, for they were all still unacquainted with the ways of the world…
All through breakfast, Lin Miaoke couldn’t bring herself to ask Chen Wei to pretend to be her boyfriend.
Not in front of Su Yui and Lin Yibai; she simply didn’t have the nerve.
Forget it, better look for another opportunity then!
Thinking this, she cheerfully bid farewell to Chen Wei and Su Yui, waving her hands, “Take care on the road, master.”
In the car.
Su Yui withdrew her gaze from the rearview mirror and turned to Chen Wei, “How about it?
The sister maids aren’t bad, right?”
“They have high professional standards.
But, sister, I’m curious, how did you convince them to co and be my maids?” This question had bothered Chen Wei for a long ti, and he couldn’t figure it out.
Not until later did he learn from Su Yui about the sister’s pitiful background.
They originally belonged to a wealthy family, one of the top in their region, but they were betrayed by a confidant, which led to their downfall and debts amounting to over a billion.
Their father, unable to bear the burden, committed suicide by throwing himself into a river, leaving behind his daughters, Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke.
The Lin Family had once been kind to Su Yui, and she couldn’t bear to see the sisters suffer or be targeted by villains, so she paid off their debts for them.
The sisters were extrely grateful and insisted on repaying Su Yui’s kindness.
After repeatedly pleading with her, and since Su Yui had just thought of Chen Wei, she let the two beco his personal maid sisters.
“Is that so…” Chen Wei saw the sisters smiling all day long and never imagined they had such a sad story behind them.
“Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.
To them, making you happy is the most worthwhile thing in the world,” Su Yui said, lifting her hand to Chen Wei’s shoulder and patting it gently.
Chen Wei didn’t continue on such a sad subject, and suddenly rembering sothing else, he changed the topic, “Sister, isn’t today Saturday?
Are you still working?
Not taking a break?
With your current financial situation, you don’t need to push yourself so hard, right?”
Chen Wei was concerned that Su Yui might exhaust herself with work.
“It’s just a bit of leftover work from yesterday, I can finish it in half a day,” assured Su Yui, telling Chen Wei not to worry about her.
Hearing this, Chen Wei didn’t press the matter any further.
Soon, the car arrived at Qingshi Group.
Getting out of the car, Su Yui asked Chen Wei, “I won’t be long with my work here, do you want to stay and have a look around the company, and then we can go back together or go sowhere else for lunch?”
“Sure,” Chen Wei thought, since he had nothing to do anyway, he might as well wander around and get to know the place where Su Yui worked on a daily basis.
He also wanted to see whether there were any other parasites remaining inside Qingshi; if there were, he had to root them out!
He couldn’t let them grow unchecked!
The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder into the grand entrance of Qingshi Group.
Although yesterday’s incident had made waves, many people still did not know that Chen Wei was Su Yui’s junior brother, and they began to gossip in hushed tones.
“Oh my God!
That guy is so handso, he can actually hold a candle to President Su in terms of looks.”
“Could he be President Su’s boyfriend?”
“He must be, I used to think there wasn’t any man in the world who could match President Su, but now I realize I was wrong; it’s just that he hadn’t appeared yet.”
“To be able to beco that kind of man’s girlfriend, even if it ans shortening my life by ten years, I’d be willing!”
…
Hearing these words, Su Yui’s face was icy, but her heart was extrely restless.
What boyfriend?
He is my junior brother!
Listening made her ears burn with heat.
She hurried into the elevator with Chen Wei, heading straight for the top floor.
It was quieter here, with fewer people talking, and Su Yui heaved a sigh of relief.
“Sister, go get busy with your work, I won’t disturb you.
I’m going to walk around and take a look,” Chen Wei said without leaving the elevator.
“Okay, call anyti if you need anything, don’t be afraid to trouble , I’m not afraid of being troubled,” Su Yui advised.
“Mhm,” Chen Wei responded, and the elevator doors slowly closed.
Chen Wei’s gaze lingered on the elevator, and he noticed that so buttons had symbols on them.
Choosing the bowl and chopsticks, he assud it must be the staff canteen.
Honestly speaking, he hadn’t eaten his fill at ho earlier, “It looks like I need to talk to Yibai and the others about having a bigger breakfast when I get back tonight.”
The elevator doors opened, and Chen Wei took a big step out, just about to move forward when soone crashed head-first into his chest.
The person scread and fell backward, landing squarely on the floor.
Hands braced on the ground.
Feet apart, maintaining balance.
This, when wearing a bodycon dress…
“Red…”
“Red?” The woman with short hair didn’t react at first, but then quickly sat up and pressed down her dress hem.
Lifting her eyes, with faint tears twinkling in anger.
But as soon as she saw who it was, that anger seed to vanish into thin air, “My savior!
It’s you!”
Chen Wei was also a bit surprised; he didn’t expect to run into the short-haired female employee who was nearly molested yesterday.
If he rembered correctly, her na seed to be Yan Suli.
“Sorry, I was in too much of a hurry and wasn’t watching where I was going,” Chen Wei bent down and extended his hand, “Are you okay?
Did you get hurt?”
“No, no,” Yan Suli grabbed Chen Wei’s hand and stood up with his help.
Dusting off the dirt on her butt, she squeezed out a smile, indicating to Chen Wei not to worry about it, including—placing a finger on her lips with a mischievous smile—”about seeing my dress…”
Her gaze then drifted downwards.
