A Pool of Clear Water: [Image] I'm here, Qingqing Darling~
The photo showed Xu Yanche smiling at the camera with several friends.
He looked very happy.
He Qing saved the photo.
Qingqing Darling: Have fun.
A Pool of Clear Water: Okay~ Be careful on the way, Qingqing Darling.
Wo Chunzhu tore open a packet of spicy strips and happily munched on them. "Yanyan, why don't you consider joining my studio?"
Xu Yanche said, "No. I got into voice acting because I loved it, and I've already signed with Star Sea Entertainment. I'm planning to act and make money in the future."
Wo Chunzhu sprawled on the sofa. "Makes sense. Sigh, when will I ever be as rich as you? Then I could just lie flat and rot."
Hearing that, Xu Yanche affectionately patted Wo Chunzhu's head. "Silly child, with your dad here, how could I let you go hungry? If I have a bite of meat, you'll have a sip of soup."
Wo Chunzhu said, "But I want to eat meat too."
Xu Yanche thought about it seriously before answering, "Then I'll give you a tiny bit."
At that moment, the director walked over, picked up a bottle of AD Calcium, and inserted a straw. "Aotian, come on. No one has voiced The Fool yet. Since you're free anyway, want to give him a try?"
Xu Yanche nodded. "Sure, let's do it."
Before entering the recording booth, Xu Yanche took out the notebook He Jing had given him and asked everyone to sign it.
"Come on, sign it, and write a few words of encouragement while you're at it. My sister is taking the National College Entrance Examination next year, so write something wishing her success in becoming the provincial top scorer."
Everyone else: "..."
Afraid they would not be able to find their own photos, Xu Yanche thoughtfully marked the page numbers for them. "Go ahead, don't be shy."
Four hours later, Xu Yanche finished voicing The Fool in the audio drama. After checking that everyone had signed, he took a photo and sent it to He Jing.
A Pool of Clear Water: [Image] Done.
He Jing looked at the messages in the photo wishing her success in becoming next year's provincial top scorer and fell silent.
Why did all her idols want her to become the provincial top scorer? How strange.
It seemed she would have to work hard and not let so many people's expectations down.
At the burger place, Xu Yanche bought two deluxe burgers.
Then he went to a milk tea shop and bought two cups of milk tea.
As he passed a fast-food restaurant, he bought two sweet-and-sour pork rice bowls and paid extra to have the owner add more sweet-and-sour pork.
After buying everything, he happily ran off to He Group to have lunch with He Qing.
And to check up on him while he was at it.
The moment he got out of the car, he saw Xu Lingye and Li Xingruo in the He Group lobby.
Curious, he walked over to see what was happening.
Oh? So after offending the He Household during their visit that morning, the couple had come to He Group to apologize and ask to see He Qing.
But the front desk would not let them upstairs at all.
Even when Xu Lingye said that the Xu Household and He Household were related by marriage, the receptionist merely kept up a professional fake smile and refused to let them through.
Xu Yanche sat on the sofa until he had seen enough of the spectacle.
He patted himself off and stood, preparing to go upstairs and have lunch with He Qing. It was nearly noon.
When the receptionist saw Xu Yanche heading for the president's private elevator, she did not stop him. Instead, she messaged the secretarial office to say that the president's wife had arrived and was about to come upstairs.
Seeing Xu Yanche head straight for the elevator, Xu Lingye was displeased.
"Why can he go up, but we can't?"
The receptionist smiled. "Sir, that is our president's wife, so of course he may go upstairs. If you wish to see the president, you need an appointment."
Xu Lingye changed targets and called to Xu Yanche, who was about to enter the elevator. "Xu Yanche, take your mother and me to see He Qing."
Xu Yanche rolled his eyes.
He walked directly into the elevator and gave the couple the middle finger.
Fuck, he really thinks he's the emperor. Does he seriously think everyone has to listen to him?
If they had treated me a little better when they acknowledged me, I could have helped them out.
But they didn't.
They were the ones who cut off their own path. They can't blame anyone else.
Xu Yanche happily arrived on the third floor.
Isn't this president's office a little too fitting for a domineering CEO? Don't novels say that a domineering CEO's office is always on the top floor, where he can overlook the entire city? Why is this different?
Oh? There are quite a lot of secretaries. Why are they looking at me as though I'm some rare treasure? It's kind of scary. They look like they want to eat me.
Xu Yanche maintained a cool expression, greeted them, and then entered the president's office.
He closed the door.
The moment the door shut, the secretaries outside took out their phones and began sending messages in the company group chat.
Secretary Zhang: Woohoo~ I just saw the president's wife! He's really handsome, like ridiculously handsome.
Front Desk Xiao Li: (frantically raises hand) (screams) Ahhh, I saw him too! The president's wife is so pale and so handsome.
Front Desk Xiao Li: Do you know about that surrogate marriage incident that caused such an uproar before? Fuck, I ran into the people involved today. That couple from the Xu Household came in, making a huge fuss and insisting on seeing President He. Seriously, they had no appointment, treated our president's wife terribly, and even cursed at him. If it weren't for professional ethics, I would've grabbed a chair and smashed them right out the door.
Finance Assistant: Seriously?
HR Director: Seriously, seriously! (frantically raises hand) I saw it too. That Xu Lingye was awful to our president's wife. Thank goodness our poor little president's wife met our president. Otherwise, I don't even dare imagine how miserable his life would have been. (wipes tears with tiny handkerchief)
Secretary Chen: The president's wife is absolutely god-tier gorgeous. I really don't understand how someone with a face that beautiful could spend nearly two years in the entertainment industry and still be beyond eighteenth-tier.
Don't Go Bald Don't Go Bald (Technical Director): I heard our president's wife refused the unspoken rules before and got shelved because of it. I heard he's now signed with our own company. That's wonderful.
Xu Yanche, who was curled up on the sofa in He Qing's office playing games, sneezed several times in a row.
He had no idea that the entire company now thought he was a pitiful little thing.
Xu Yanche rubbed his nose. It must be those Xu Household bastards cursing me. Damn it, they won't even let me play a game in peace.
After entering the office earlier, he had searched everywhere but could not find He Qing.
He asked Secretary Gao, the chief secretary, and learned that He Qing was still in a meeting.
Just as he finished a round and was about to sit up, the office door was opened.
He looked up and met He Qing's gaze.
He Qing's usually impassive eyes softened with a smile when he saw Xu Yanche. "Why did you come over? Did you have fun with your friends?"
Xu Yanche's stomach had been growling with hunger for a while.
Seeing He Qing go wash his hands, he immediately sat up, opened the meal boxes on the table, and inserted straws into the milk tea. "I came to check up on you. I had a lot of fun."
Secretary Gao had already briefed He Qing on the Xu Household matter, and He Qing had directly ordered the security guards to throw the Xu family out.
After washing his hands, He Qing came over and sat close beside Xu Yanche. "Are you satisfied with your inspection?"
Xu Yanche pretended to think.
Then he looked at He Qing, his tone carrying a hint of temptation. "If you kiss me, I'll be satisfied."
Xu Yanche had thought that based on He Qing's previous behavior, he would definitely refuse, but he was wrong after all.
He Qing agreed.
He lifted him onto his lap.
Making him kneel on He Qing's thighs.
He Qing unhurriedly loosened his tie and undid two buttons of his shirt.
One hand supported Xu Yanche's waist while the other held the back of Xu Yanche's head.
Looking at He Qing's cool, abstinent appearance, Xu Yanche's heartbeat sped up.
What is with this man? How has he improved so much? He wasn't like this before. Why has he suddenly become so seductive? This isn't right.
Fine, fine. Man, you've successfully caught my attention.
He Qing first kissed Xu Yanche gently, then slowly deepened the kiss.
Five minutes later, Xu Yanche lay gasping against He Qing's shoulder, catching his breath.
This bastard is actually so good at kissing. But I like it.
Hearing Xu Yanche's thoughts, He Qing was very satisfied.
His cramming over the past few days had not been in vain.
The results were indeed remarkable.
