Chapter 33: Chapter 32 Turns out Girls are So Easy to Placate
Shen Jingxiu: “… Uncle, I really didn’t.”
“You lad, either there’s no action at all, or you bring soone into the office, tsk tsk, it’s quite thrilling. Young people are different eh. Solid back, kidneys must be good too.”
“It’s not like that, uncle, listen to
explain…”
“Alright, alright,” the uncle hurriedly waved his hand, “I need to go wipe off the soles of my shoes. You can’t bla
for this lipstick, you were the one who brought it upon yourself, so you figure out how to apologize.”
“I……”
Watching his uncle’s retreating figure, Shen Jingxiu helplessly shook his head.
Sotis working alone in the office is quite helpless.
But this lipstick…if he rembered correctly, it should have been accidentally left in his car by Wenyan when they went shopping at the supermarket yesterday.
After all, other than Wenyan, no other won have sat in his passenger seat.
He rembered that at that ti, Wenyan took out her phone from her bag to contact Shen Jinghe and asked him what seafood he wanted to eat.
The lipstick must have accidentally fallen out then.
And now it had turned into this in his hands…
He closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose, and then stood up to pick up the damaged lipstick.
Afterward, he made an internal call, and Weng Zhining ca in quickly.
“President Shen, you were looking for , this…”
As soon as Weng Zhining entered, he saw a noticeable red blotch on the light grey carpet.
His reaction was swift, he imdiately picked up the internal line phone: “I’ll call housekeeping right away.”
But Shen Jingxiu raised his hand to stop him: “Help
with another matter first.”
“What is it?”
Shen Jingxiu wiped the lipstick clean, capped it, and handed it to Weng Zhining.
“Go buy an identical one of this brand.”
“Okay.”
“Make sure the color is also exactly the sa.”
Weng Zhining nodded: “Understood. But President Shen, seeing as it was accidentally damaged, wouldn’t buying just one be insufficient? I’ve heard that lipsticks co in many different shades.”
“Is that so?” Shen Jingxiu squinted his eyes, “These kinds of costics usually co in complete gift sets, right? Then go buy the set with the most complete range of colors.”
“Sure, I’ll go handle it now.”
Weng Zhining left to carry out the task.
But in fact, he was also a complete “straight male,” clueless about these things. However, he had several female subordinates, so he wasn’t worried about finding a Think Tank.
He was just extrely curious about the owner of the lipstick.
Not just him, the female secretary he called over to consult was also very curious.
She asked very quietly: “Special Assistant Weng, does our president have a girlfriend now?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t. Don’t gossip. Oh right, buy two of those gift sets.”
“Ah? Two identical ones?”
“Yes.”
“This… could it be that our president, instead of not dating, is seeing two people at the sa ti, playing both ends against the middle?”
“… If you say one more word, your bonus will be docked.” Actually, Weng Zhining didn’t understand either.
Just before he was about to leave earlier, the president suddenly called him back and added to buy two sets.
The female secretary was very efficient, and before the end of the workday, she had brought two boxes of lipstick to the company.
“Special Assistant Weng, where should I put this, or does it need to be delivered sowhere?”
Weng Zhining couldn’t make that decision on his own.
So he went to ask Shen Jingxiu for instructions.
Shen Jingxiu was still very busy, not even lifting his head: “Put it in my car.”
Weng Zhining imdiately asked him: “There’s a cocktail party tonight, I ntioned it to you this morning, you said if you weren’t working late you would go, so what about now?”
“Cancelled it, it was a last-minute thing anyway. I leave work punctually at six, and if there’s anything that requires my direct attention, it’ll be dealt with before I finish work.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Weng Zhining kept his composure on the surface, but his curiosity deepened within.
The workaholic president was not planning on working overti.
Having followed him for several years, this was the first ti, aside from important family dinner gatherings, that he had seen him leave work on ti.
And it was very likely because of a woman.
This woman was truly remarkable.
–
Just as Wenyan brought the cat back to the Shen Family villa, she sneezed violently twice.
Zhang Sao hurriedly stepped forward and offered Wenyan a tissue.
“You wouldn’t be allergic to cat hair, would you? If that’s the case, having the cat here will make you suffer.”
“I won’t be.” Wenyan was certain, “I played with it for quite a while last ti and didn’t sneeze at all. It must be soone talking about . Zhang Sao, do you like cats?”
“I do. I like all little animals. I grew up in the countryside with a large front and back yard, raising both cats and dogs. It was so joyful.”
As they were chatting, Su Yang returned.
Her schedule was more flexible, so she ca back earlier and was imdiately intrigued when she heard that the cat was brought back from Shen Jinghe’s place.
Mother and daughter played with the cat together, and ti flew by quickly.
Around seven o’clock, Shen Yuan and his daughter Shen Zhirou ca back together, and Su Yang actively took the cat to show Shen Yuan.
After hearing that this was Shen Jinghe’s pet and that it was temporarily entrusted to Wenyan due to a business trip, Shen Zhirou’s expression clearly changed.
Wenyan noticed all of this and was thinking about whether to take the opportunity to provoke her tonight when another car stopped outside.
It was Shen Jingxiu arriving.
Su Yang was very happy.
“Jingxiu, why didn’t you call ahead today? We’re about to start dinner.”
“Because I could make it back before dinner, I didn’t ntion it.”
“Co in quickly. What’s that you’re carrying? Looks like two heavy boxes.”
“Apology gifts.”
“???” Su Yang was puzzled.
Nobody else present understood either.
Shen Jingxiu, however, walked straight towards Wenyan, clearly stating his purpose.
“Yesterday at the supermarket, your lipstick was left in my car, and I accidentally ruined it. This is to compensate you.”
!!! Wenyan’s eyes widened.
“All this in one big box is for ?”
“Yeah, I wasn’t sure which color your lipstick was, so I bought them all for you to choose.”
[Boohoo, this brother is too supportive, absolutely divine, I love big brother, long live big brother]
In her two lifetis, Wenyan had only seen female celebrities show off their lipstick boxes and lipstick walls online. She never thought she’d receive such a gift one day.
“Thank you, big brother. Actually, it was just a re lipstick, you didn’t have to buy so many for , and you wouldn’t have needed to buy them at all. Can I open them now to take a look?”
“Of course.”
The lipstick box had three layers, each filled with over thirty lipsticks.
Wenyan felt as if she would never need to buy lipstick again in her life.
She loved it so much!
“Thank you, big brother. No girl can resist the temptation of lipsticks, and if there were such a girl, surely it would be because the lipstick she was given wasn’t plentiful enough. Big brother, please sit down, tell
what drink you’d like, and I’ll prepare it right now.”
Shen Jingxiu maintained an impassive expression, yet a hint of amusent flickered in his dark, deep eyes.
So, it seed that girls were easy to appease.
