Chapter 121: His Assistant’s Public Display of Affection
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Mrs. Gu said she’s feeling a little unwell and will take a break in the restroom. She’ll come for you in a while,” Qi Shaodong said.
As he spoke, Qi Shaodong paid attention to Gu Nianshen’s reaction before sighing in his heart. “Ahh. She must have been upset by what Miss Su had said. She must feel hurt now.”
Qi Shaodong felt that he deserved a raise in his pay for being such a wonderful assistant.
‘She must feel hurt… from what Miss Su said…
‘Was that really the case?’
Gu Nianshen took a few steps back as he leaned against the wall once again. Subconsciously, he rested his chin on his arm.
He was deep in thought.
In his mind, he felt that Lin Yiqian had no reason to be bothered by the rumors between him and Su Dan. “Why would she be sad?” He looked at Qi Shaodong.
She… did not like him after all.
Qi Shaodong felt speechless. How could Gu Nianshen be this oblivious?
“For example, would you get jealous and angry if Mrs. Gu was rumored to be with other men?” Qi Shaodong decided an example was the best way to explain this.
“Who would dare?” Gu Nianshen’s facial expression turned gloomy.
Qi Shaodong inhaled deeply as he felt the pressure from Gu Nianshen.
“Boss, please don’t get upset. I was just giving an example,” he quickly explained.
“Would she mind even if she did not like me?” Gu Nianshen asked as if lost in his own deep thought.
Qi Shaodong felt like he was about to turn mad. “Let’s not talk about liking or not liking someone. If Mrs. Gu was willing to eat a dumpling which you have taken a bite of, surely she does not hate you.”
“How do you know that she ate a dumpling which I had taken a bite of?” Gu Nianshen frowned.
Qi Shaodong felt speechless yet again.
Was Qi Shaodong from a family of spies?
Did Gu Nianshen really think his childish lie could fool someone who had a high emotional quotient?
“I merely guessed,” Qi Shaodong said, humbly.
As he nodded with a chuckle, Qi Shaodong’s phone rang. When he saw who was calling him, he immediately seemed energetic.
“Boss, my girlfriend is calling me.”
After informing Gu Nianshen, Qi Shaodong turned around to pick up the call.
“Baby, I’m not done with work yet. Please wait for me a while longer.
“Be a good girl.
“Alright, mwah.”
Gu Nianshen could feel goosebumps all over his body from eavesdropping on Qi Shaodong’s conversation with his girlfriend.
However, he cursed at himself for allowing his assistant to display such affection in front of him.
Was it usually not the case that secretaries and assistants would be the ones observing affection between their bosses and their significant others?
Gu Nianshen must be the only CEO in the world who allowed this…
“Boss, if there isn’t anything else, I’ll call it a day. My girlfriend is waiting for me outside.” Qi Shaodong smiled at Gu Nianshen after ending his call. “Call me if you need anything.”
Although Qi Shaodong did not mean to do it, Gu Nianshen felt that he was showing off his affection toward his girlfriend. “Get lost!”
‘Fine. I’ll leave now.’
Qi Shaodong nodded as he immediately turned around. However, he paused after taking several steps. “Actually, women are very easy to please. Don’t worry too much and try to say nice things. Do what makes her happy.”
Qi Shaodong was truly concerned about his arrogant boss.
‘Say nice things and do what makes her happy…’
Gu Nianshen repeated Qi Shaodong’s words in his mind as he pondered.
Finally, he made up his mind.
As Gu Nianshen retrieved his phone from his pocket, he dialed another phone number. “Bring me to Na Wa.”

As Lin Yiqian wore a mask, she did not need to put on make-up.
Therefore, Lin Yiqian would always take less time to get ready before getting on stage as compared to other celebrities. Usually, she would put on her mask before letting her designer and stylist do their job.
