Chapter 213: Love Makes One See Their Lover as a Hero
An hour later, Jiang Che stopped his car at the gate of the Xiao Group and headed straight in. The receptionist on the first floor was stunned for a moment upon seeing such a handsome guy.
“What, never seen a handsome guy before?” Seeing the receptionist’s reaction, Jiang Che raised an eyebrow and asked playfully.
He wasn’t surprised by her reaction, knowing his own charm. With a handsome and dashing appearance, an ethereal aura, and sharp facial features, his eyes seemed to contain stars. If he were a woman, he would fall for himself too!
“Hello…” The receptionist blushed and stammered, snapping out of her daze. She wished she could dig a hole and hide, feeling so embarrassed!
“I’m here to see your President Xiao. I’m her boyfriend. Give her a call to confirm.” Jiang Che said with a smile, not making things difficult for the receptionist, and directly asked her to call Xiao Qingge. After all, this was Xiao Qingge’s company, and he had no need to act high and mighty.
“Presidents Xiao’s boyfriend?” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, the receptionist was clearly stunned, looking a bit confused. She never expected the person in front of her to be their President’s boyfriend, and such a handsome one at that!
When did their President get such a handsome boyfriend? Wasn’t it said she wasn’t interested in men? Did she lose her resistance upon seeing a handsome guy?
She didn’t have much time to think. After confirming Jiang Che’s identity with Xiao Qingge over the phone, she smiled and said, “Sir, our president is on the sixth floor, you can go up to see her.”
“Thank you.” Thanking her, Jiang Che left the front desk, took the elevator, and pressed the button for the sixth floor.
Watching Jiang Che’s figure disappear into the elevator, the receptionist returned to her senses, feeling a bit envious. Why couldn’t she find such a handsome boyfriend? Looking down at her flat chest, then thinking of their CEO’s perfect figure, she seemed to understand, feeling like crying but having no tears.
…
In the CEO’s office on the sixth floor, Xiao Qingge was processing documents with her head down when Jiang Che pushed the door open and walked in. Xiao Qingge frowned, she hated being disturbed while working. She looked up, about to scold her thoughtless subordinate.
But seeing it was Jiang Che, her expression immediately softened, a sweet smile appearing on her face, “You’re here!”
“Mm…” Jiang Che nodded, pulled a chair, and sat opposite of her, “Have you missed me these past two days?”
“Mm…” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Xiao Qingge felt shy but still nodded.
These past two days, whether at work or at home, she often found herself daydreaming and thinking about Jiang Che. His handsome face lingered in her mind. Since becoming intimate with Jiang Che, she no longer felt fear towards him, only admiration…
An instinctual admiration for a strong man…
“Have you seen that delivery guy before?” Jiang Che asked curiously, getting straight to the point.
Half the reason he came today was for this delivery guy.
“No, today was the first time I saw him.” Xiao Qingge thought for a moment and said uncertainly. Even if she had seen him before, she had forgotten. He wasn’t particulary that handsome, so she wouldn’t remember him, just an ordinary delivery guy.
Jiang Che nodded thoughtfully. This guy should have just gotten his system recently and came today to deliver food to Xiao Qingge on a system task. This type of protagonist usually had no combat power, very weak, the kind he could easily handle with one hand, not even needing to do it himself.
“Order takeout again tomorrow at noon and have him deliver it. I’ll come and see what kind of person can make President Xiao feel strange.” Jiang Che joked with a smile.
“Why are you so interested in a delivery guy, and how are you sure it will be him tomorrow?” Seeing Jiang Che’s confident look, Xiao Qingge asked puzzledly.
She couldn’t understand why Jiang Che was so concerned about a delivery guy, who was nothing to him.
“I’m just curious…” Jiang Che said with a light smile. He couldn’t say he suspected the guy was a protagonist and wanted to see for himself, could he?
Not lingering on the topic, Jiang Che noticed it was already 6 PM, “Shall we go for dinner?”
“Give me five minutes to finish these documents.” Xiao Qingge said and began to work on the documents, happy to spend more time with Jiang Che.
Jiang Che didn’t disturb her, resting his arm and admiring her beautiful face. Xiao Qingge had a unique charm when she’s working seriously she looks less gentle but more cool.
…
“Alright, let’s go.” Xiao Qingge finished the documents and saw Jiang Che staring at her without blinking. She blushed slightly and glared at him, feeling both shy and happy.
“Let’s go.” Jiang Che stood up from the chair and left the office with Xiao Qingge, heading downstairs from Xiao Group’s building.
