Chapter 1577: Deliberately Stirring Up Trouble

Xu Zixin enthusiastically brought the soup bowl over.

Jiang Chenghao didn't even look, refusing, "I said I'm not drinking it, take it away."

"Oh, just take one sip, and then... ah!"

Xu Zixin thrust the soup bowl in front of Jiang Chenghao.

Worried that it would actually touch his lips, Jiang Chenghao pushed away Xu Zixin's wrist.

And it was this movement that caused the soup to spill out, with the liquid splashing onto Xu Zixin's skirt.

Xu Zixin stared at Jiang Chenghao with a look of grievance and said, "It's so hot, and besides, how am I supposed to go out and see people like this!?"

Jiang Chenghao's expression was already very unpleasant.

But he maintained his gentlemanly demeanor as much as possible and said, "Sorry, I will have someone send you a new set."

After saying this, Jiang Chenghao called his assistant to arrange for them to send over a new set of clothes.

The assistant asked for Xu Zixin's size.

Jiang Chenghao didn't even think about it and said, "She is about the same height as Xiao Xiao, just buy Xiao Xiao's size."

The assistant acknowledged this and hung up the phone.

But Xu Zixin was not pleased; she puffed out her chest and said somewhat proudly, "I am much thinner than her, but my bust is bigger than hers!"

"Wearing sportswear, it doesn't matter."

What, sportswear!?

It had been many years since Xu Zixin had worn such unfeminine things!

She pouted her red lips and asked with dissatisfaction, "Shouldn't you buy a dress instead?"

"Too much trouble, as long as there is something to wear, that's enough."

"But..."

Jiang Chenghao ignored Xu Zixin further, stood up, and with his back to her, looked for the documents he needed for his meeting.

Xu Zixin stomped her feet, but felt helpless.

But then again...

Jiang Chenghao looked thin, but when he leaned over or raised his arms, one could still feel his muscle definition through his white shirt!

If he took off the white shirt...

The sight would definitely be a feast for the eyes!

Tsk tsk, this Jiang Chenghao really cannot be judged by his appearance.

He looks like a noble young master on the outside, but his body is full of strength!

If one's fingers could trace across his stomach...

It would definitely feel very rugged!

The more Xu Zixin thought about it, the bolder she became, and her face turned red.

And her burning gaze had long since made Jiang Chenghao uncomfortable!

Just when he could no longer tolerate it, the assistant sent in a set of sportswear.

Xu Zixin was very surprised: "How is it so fast?"

"The clothing store is not far from here, it takes five minutes by car."

The assistant was afraid of delaying the boss's important business, so he still rushed back as fast as he could.

Jiang Chenghao was very satisfied with his speed, but for Xu Zixin, it was the exact opposite.

Her face tightened, she looked at the style of the sportswear with disdain, and said, "What kind of thing did you pick!"

"Ah, is it not good? It cost five thousand yuan. If you really don't like it, I will return it."

As the assistant said this, he prepared to take the clothes and leave.

But Xu Zixin called the assistant to stop and changed her mind: "After looking at it for a while, it's not that ugly, I'll make do with it."

After saying this, Xu Zixin took the clothes to examine them.

Only after seeing the brand of the clothes did she believe that this thing was worth over five thousand.

The assistant could see the change in Xu Zixin's eyes.

Especially the way her eyes lit up when she stared at the price tag; it was simply... vulgar beyond words!

Sigh, how could the boss allow such a woman to enter his office?

The assistant secretly glanced at Jiang Chenghao.

Jiang Chenghao had already organized the documents he needed, and before leaving, he commanded Xu Zixin: "Once you've changed your clothes, leave on your own. Also, don't come looking for me again in the future."

Xu Zixin did not agree, only saying coquettishly, "You are really fierce."

Jiang Chenghao frowned, but did not pay any more attention to this woman, turned around, pushed the door open, and left.

And Xu Zixin did not change her clothes immediately; instead, she walked over to the chair Jiang Chenghao had just been sitting in and touched it. Then she sat down on it.

Hmm, she could still feel his warmth!

Xu Zixin rubbed against the chair with enjoyment, and suddenly had a feeling of... being held by Jiang Chenghao!

She was obsessed with this feeling and silently told herself in her heart: sooner or later, she would make Jiang Chenghao hold her willingly!

Xu Zixin dawdled inside for a long time before changing her clothes and opening the office door.

Normally, she should have taken the elevator and left directly.

But Xu Zixin deliberately wandered around outside, then stopped in a crowded place and asked someone in a confused manner:

"I fell asleep in Brother Cheng Hao's office just now, and when I woke up, I didn't see him. May I ask where he went?"

Xu Zixin's words... were truly too ambiguous!

Anyone who heard them would let their imagination run wild!

The person she spoke to was stunned.

In the end, it was only after someone nudged him that he said, "Oh, the boss went to a meeting."

"I see, then I won't disturb him."

After saying this, Xu Zixin smiled at the other person and then walked away from his side.

Her smile was quite alluring.

The man's heart skipped a beat, then he rubbed the back of his head and said to the person beside him, "The boss is quite lucky with the ladies!"

Someone hurriedly stopped him from talking nonsense.

But Xu Zixin had already heard it!

And she was exactly the one who wanted this result!

Xu Zixin held her chin high and left, feeling very satisfied.

And this woman's "steamy encounter" with Jiang Chenghao in the company soon reached the ears of Xu Xiaoxiao.

As it happened, the publishing editor in charge of Jiang Chenghao's new book came to find Jiang Chenghao for work.

As a result, before even seeing Jiang Chenghao himself, he first saw the scene of Xu Zixin asking people about Jiang Chenghao.

Afterwards, he also heard everyone's discussions.

Those discussions were truly varied and diverse.

Among them, there were all sorts of unreliable rumors mixed in.

As a bystander, listening to these so-called secret stories was truly enjoyable.

But he was still a friend of Xu Xiaoxiao.

Since they were friends, he couldn't act as if nothing had happened, so after this person left the company, he hurriedly notified Xu Xiaoxiao.

To avoid making Xu Xiaoxiao too upset, he did not describe the rumors in the company in detail.

But he did tell Xu Xiaoxiao to be careful and to be mentally prepared.

Hmm...

This ambiguous description actually made one feel even more uneasy.

Xu Xiaoxiao thanked the other party and then hung up the phone.

Afterwards, she raised her hand to support her chin and stared blankly at the flowerpot in front of her.

Sister Zhang had just been sitting beside Xu Xiaoxiao, so she had roughly heard the content of their conversation.

This made Sister Zhang furious, and she huffed, "Truly, ugly people are always full of strange antics!"

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed softly and did not speak.

Looking at her gloomy little face, Sister Zhang felt very heartbroken for her.

And while feeling heartbroken, she did not forget to urge her: "You must trust Cheng Hao; he won't cross his bottom line just because an ugly woman is fawning over him."

"Of course I trust him; I'm just lamenting that Xu Zixin has finally made her move."

Hearing this... it was clear there was an inside story.

Sister Zhang became interested.

But she did not press for details, just sat to the side and waited quietly.

After Xu Xiaoxiao adjusted her emotions, she began to recall: "Xu Zixin loves to compare; whatever I like, she competes for—like notebooks, dresses, friends... anyway, whatever I have, she must have. If she can't get it, she even wants to destroy it."

Li Beijue's expression turned extremely grim in an instant; he stood up abruptly and strode out.
