Chapter 76: Business Trip (Part 5)
Xiao Chen blinked his eyes again, the little bit of gossip in his heart slowly coming online.
He was an outsourced driver for Tengyuan Company; usually, unless the President needed to go on a business trip and required a car, he rarely saw the Big Boss.
And within Tengyuan Company, news about the Big Boss was even hotter than that of entertainment celebrities.
Now that the opportunity was rare, Xiao Chen hurriedly pricked up his ears; the gossip was already online.
"What did you go do?" What kind of unexpected little episode could there be from just going to the restroom? Could it be...
The President wet his pants?!
At this moment, Zhou Xiaoru, whose acting skills were already in place, feigned a gesture and even leaned her body forward.
It was the posture of someone about to share a secret with another, and Xiao Chen in the front, seeing this, cooperated even more by leaning back.
Only hearing the young Miss Zhou, whose eyes were flashing with a crystalline light, say in a low voice.
"I'm telling you, you must absolutely not tell anyone else..."
Saying this, she even paused for a moment.
Once Xiao Chen heard this, it was incredible; to be able to hear the President's big secret today, it was truly not a wasted trip.
Nodding like a pestle pounding garlic, he promised repeatedly, "I swear! I absolutely won't tell anyone!"
Seeing him so solemn in his oath, the corners of Zhou Xiaoru's mouth curled into a sinister smile again.
She hadn't expected that in this day and age, there would still be people who used tricks like swearing to keep a secret just like her!
She didn't believe for a second that this guy would be able to hold it in and not tell; anyway, she also wanted to use Xiao Chen's mouth to tarnish the reputation of that scum Gu.
Looking outside the car, that scum didn't seem to have arrived yet, so she hurriedly continued.
"Just now, President Gu ran into a beautiful woman outside the restroom, and now, they have already gone into the hotel at this service area..."
The words that followed were already self-evident.
Xiao Chen gradually wore an expression of sudden realization; he hadn't expected that this President was actually the same as the Vice President, both birds of a feather.
But thinking about it carefully, he felt it was normal; both the President and the Vice President had such beautiful, flower-like appearances—it would be abnormal if they didn't attract bees and butterflies.
Xiao Chen pondered for a while, and for the sake of caution, he felt he still needed to make a phone call to ask the Big Boss himself.
While taking out his phone, he said, "I'd better make a call and ask; it'll save us from having other trouble later."
Zhou Xiaoru saw that he was about to make the call, so she hurriedly reached out to block his phone, stopping him.
"Are you stupid! How can you call the boss at a time like this? If the boss is currently..."
The words that followed came to an abrupt halt, yet they made everyone understand implicitly.
Xiao Chen thought about it and felt these words made a lot of sense; if the Big Boss was currently busy, his call would be a direct invitation to death.
Uncertainly, he asked Zhou Xiaoru, "Did the President tell you himself to tell us to leave first?"
To make this guy believe her, Zhou Xiaoru righteously extended her hand and patted Xiao Chen's somewhat thin shoulder.
"How could I blindly spread the boss's orders? Besides, how could I use this kind of thing to joke? The President said the Bidding Conference is tomorrow, so he's letting himself relax here today."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen's suspicion, driven by gossip, gradually vanished until it was gone.
He couldn't help but sigh; bosses these days really know how to play—having a romantic encounter just by going to the restroom.
It would be one thing to have a romantic encounter, but to go straight to opening a room next door?
Why hadn't he ever encountered such a good thing...
Sigh...
Zhou Xiaoru looked at the person in front shaking his head and sighing, then nervously looked outside the car and urged.
"Let's go quickly; I still want to go stroll around W City before the afternoon."
"Alright, then we'll just have to leave first."
Xiao Chen, who was holding the steering wheel and had already started the car, suddenly realized a problem when he was about to step on the gas.
Turning his head back, he asked again, "If we just leave like this, then how will President Gu get to W City?"
This Xiao Chen could be considered a meticulous person; he had asked a very critical question.
This service area was still a long distance from the destination; if they drove away, how would the Big Boss get to W City after he was done?
Zhou Xiaoru hadn't expected this guy to be able to draw inferences and think so much.
Just with this series of delays, she saw from afar that Gu Liyan was walking over while carrying a bag of things.
And at this moment, Xiao Chen also spotted the person who had appeared in his line of sight with sharp eyes.
He couldn't help but ask with some uncertainty, "Is that the President? How could he be so fast!"
This was a bit... too fast, wasn't it!
Zhou Xiaoru heard this guy's words and couldn't help but tilt her head to look at him.
This Xiao Chen really wasn't just ordinarily dim-witted!
He actually didn't doubt what she said, but instead felt that Gu Liyan was too fast?!
In this day and age, how did she manage to encounter both dim-wits and weirdos?
(Author's note: You yourself are a combination of a weirdo and a dim-wit; don't you have any self-awareness in your heart!)
Before Gu Liyan could get into the car, she hurriedly instructed Xiao Chen.
"Don't talk nonsense, otherwise if the boss finds out I told others about his business, I'll be dead for sure."
"Understood! Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense."
Following the gentleman's entry into the car, the conversation between the two in the car had ended.
Once Gu Liyan was in the car and had pulled the door shut, he clearly felt that the atmosphere inside the car was a bit different.
After glancing at Zhou Xiaoru beside him, who was now turned to look out the window, he shifted his gaze to the person in front.
Sure enough, in the rearview mirror, he caught Xiao Chen's evasive gaze.
Without thinking too much about it, he took a bottle of water from the bag in his hand and handed it to the person in front.
"Xiao Chen, have some water."
Xiao Chen was immediately somewhat flattered, and respectfully took the water bottle, thanking him repeatedly.
"Thank you, President, thank you, President."
Then he took another bottle of water out of the bag for himself and placed the remaining items on Zhou Xiaoru's lap to the side.
He said, "These are all for you."
Zhou Xiaoru only felt a chill on her lap; she did not speak, but frowned as she opened the bag to look at the things inside.
There was a fruit platter, yogurt, soda water, and several bags of small snacks she had always liked to eat in the past.
Moreover, the two boxes of fruit platters contained only the fruits she liked to eat.
So, he still remembered what she liked to eat.
In the past, she had always hoped he would remember the things she liked, but every time, this person seemed to have forgotten on purpose.
Now that he remembers, what the hell is the use!
Since it was bought for her, she would not be polite; it just so happened she hadn't eaten breakfast when she went out this morning, and the recent trip to the men's restroom had already exhausted her energy.
It was time to replenish some strength, and she didn't know what kind of adventure was waiting for her next.
She opened a box of the fruit platter and began to eat.
At this moment, Xiao Chen in the front, after taking a sip of water, had already seen the situation in the back row clearly in the rearview mirror.
The President really has good methods; not only did he buy water for him, but he also bought fruit for the female employee.
Is this an attempt to use this to shut their mouths!
Just as his eyes were staring straight at the fruit in the rearview mirror, the Big Boss's gaze cut into the rearview mirror once again!
It scared Xiao Chen into quickly withdrawing his gaze, fastening his seatbelt, and officially preparing to set off...
The car slowly drove onto the highway again, and their journey continued.
The car suddenly fell into extreme silence.
Zhou Xiaoru only busied herself with eating the things she was holding in her hands; in fact, in her small suitcase, there were many snacks.
They were all brought with the intention of eating them with other colleagues in the car.
But she had calculated everything, yet she hadn't calculated that she would be sitting in a car with Gu Liyan.
And it was just the two of them!
And just as a certain Xiaoru was eating fruit while thinking about other things, the man in the seat beside her, after watching her for a while...
A certain Mr. moved quietly, slowly leaning his body over...
By the time Zhou Xiaoru noticed, Gu Liyan's body had already leaned all the way over.
Facing the handsome face suddenly magnified to the side, she subconsciously shrank back while holding the things in her hands.
"What are you doing!"
Xiao Chen is still in the car right now, what does he think he's doing!
A certain Mr. wore a trace of a smile at the corners of his mouth and said something that almost made Miss Zhou spray it all over his face.
"I want to eat the fruit in your hand, too."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen, who was driving, almost let his hands slip from the steering wheel.
And the following conversation overturned his perception and worldview of the President even more!
After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoru, while suppressing the urge to spray it at him, slowly prepared to take out the other box of fruit from the bag beside her.
Seeing this, Gu Liyan said.
"I only want to eat the one in your hand."
At this time, a piece of cantaloupe in Zhou Xiaoru's mouth had not been fully swallowed; while chewing, she lowered her head to look at the box in her hand.
Inside, there were only two pieces of orange and two or three slices of cantaloupe left.
She asked uncertainly, "You want to eat this box in my hand?" Doesn't he have mysophobia!
The man's eyes flashed with a glow as he nodded slightly.
Zhou Xiaoru couldn't stand being stared at by him and directly handed over the box in her hand.
"Here."
Since he wanted to eat her leftovers, if she didn't give it to him, it would make her look stingy.
But the next words from the handsome Mr. Gu made the cantaloupe that a certain Xiaoru was just about to swallow get stuck right in her throat.
She saw a certain Mr. lean his body even closer and say slowly.
"I want... you to feed me..."
Zhou Xiaoru, "......."
Xiao Chen, "......" The steering wheel in his hands had already trembled along with him!
Zhou Xiaoru stared at the man in front of her as if looking at a lunatic.
She had seen shameless people, but someone this shameless—even if she lived another five hundred years, it would be hard to encounter such a rare specimen again!
"President Gu, your hands... are they alright!"
"They're fine, why?"
"You have hands yourself, why do you need me to feed you? Besides, President Gu, have you forgotten? I already have a boyfriend. If you do this, my boyfriend will be unhappy."
At the mention of a boyfriend, a thick layer of ice instantly formed on a certain Mr.'s face.
But after a moment, Gu Liyan revealed a trace of a mysterious smile.
"If you don't feed me... I will tell Su Poyang about what happened at the service area today. You know, his mouth is famously fast..."
"......"
Zhou Xiaoru was already secretly gnashing her teeth, wishing she could go up and take a bite out of this shameless man!
Truly shameless to the point of having no bottom line, and even more lacking in integrity!
Meanwhile, Xiao Chen, who was driving in front, was receiving the conversation from the back seat...
It seems that the relationship between this young girl accompanying on the business trip and the president... is not simple...
