Xu Shi rolled his eyes.
Xie Yanci did more than like him. He was practically ready to be his dog.
Not fond of chatting with his coworkers, Xu Shi smiled and played dumb without saying a word.
"Doesn't President Xie have a boyfriend?" someone suddenly said.
"I heard that too. Apparently it even trended online. President Xie's boyfriend accused him of loving him and leaving him."
"Right, right. I get the feeling President Xie isn't all that respectable in private either."
"Why else would he be friends with Song Zhixing?"
Xu Shi: "..."
He still had no idea just how bad Song Zhixing's reputation was.
The group gathered around and started gossiping about Xie Yanci again.
Xu Shi shook his head and quietly left the meeting room.
He had sailed through his first six-month review at the company. In the spreadsheet his assistant had sent him, his performance ranked first on this year's designer rankings.
His popularity ranked second.
Xu Shi really hadn't known he was so popular online.
He barely used social media. His assistant basically ran his accounts for him.
With that in mind, Xu Shi logged into his Weibo account, taking a rare interest in having a look.
The moment he opened it, the first thing he saw was a photo of himself.
A selfie.
He had taken it the day he and Xie Yanci went to the amusement park.
He had bought a pair of fluffy bunny ears, originally hoping to coax Xie Yanci into wearing them. In the end, before he even realized how he had been tricked, he had ended up wearing them himself.
He had thought they looked cute at the time, so he took a selfie and even posted it on Moments.
He hadn't expected his assistant to post it on Weibo.
