Chapter 128

~7 min read 1,346 words

A Wei looked at Tang Bingyan with worry.

It wasn't that he was afraid Tang Bingyan would kick Xu Tian out directly, but he was worried that her getting angry would damage her health.

And Gu Beicheng, standing on the other side of Tang Bingyan, remained calm: "Mr. Xu, don't blame Yanyan; she just has this workaholic personality. Besides, this project is up for bidding tomorrow, and time is indeed tight. Once we discuss the final plan, I will persuade Yanyan to eat."

Xu Tian swept a cold glance at Gu Beicheng.

He had originally thought that Gu Beicheng, this formidable rival, truly loved Tang Bingyan, but now it seemed he only loved Tang Bingyan's perfection.

Gu Beicheng usually put on a show of caring for Tang Bingyan, yet he could allow Tang Bingyan to work overtime continuously without resting or eating.

Such a selfish and hypocritical man was not worthy of being his opponent at all!

He ignored Gu Beicheng and went straight to the coffee table to pick up the thermal lunch box. Opening it, he found it was just as he had thought: the food inside was full and hadn't been touched at all.

Fortunately, this thermal lunch box had good performance, and the food still retained some residual warmth.

He carried the lunch box back to Tang Bingyan, took out the small containers layer by layer, and placed them on the empty space on the desk.

Then he scooped a spoonful of lotus root and pork rib soup and brought it to Tang Bingyan's mouth.

This sudden action not only made Chen Xiaoxiao and A Wei shake their heads, but even the high-level executives were speechless.

Shouldn't there be a limit to showing off affection?

Didn't he see that Tang Zong was looking at documents?

This pretty boy really didn't know the gravity of the situation.

Tang Zong was famous for putting work above all else; wasn't Xu Tian afraid of provoking Tang Zong's anger by repeatedly interrupting her?

However, just when the high-level executives thought Tang Bingyan would kick Xu Tian out, they saw Tang Bingyan, who was still focused on reading the document, not even lift her head as she opened her mouth and drank the soup he offered.

Chen Xiaoxiao: "..."

A Wei: "..."

The group of executives: "..."

Tang Bingyan's action was no different from an invisible slap, hitting Chen Xiaoxiao and the others hard in the face.

However, before everyone could recover from the pain in their faces, Xu Tian smiled at Tang Bingyan with satisfaction and scooped another spoonful of peas from the lunch box.

"Since you have to work, I'll feed you."

Then.

Then everyone saw Tang Bingyan obediently open her red lips and eat the food Xu Tian fed her.

The surrounding crowd: "..."

Was this really still the Tang Zong they knew?

What exactly did they do wrong to have to endure this torture?

Although Tang Zong didn't get angry, this appearance of letting the pretty boy feed her was simply more terrifying than getting angry, okay!

They would rather be scolded by Tang Bingyan and have half a month's bonus deducted than see the pretty boy kept by their boss acting spoiled in front of them.

To the side, Gu Beicheng, who had been calm and composed, finally saw a ripple in his eyes when he saw Xu Tian take the initiative to feed Tang Bingyan.

He said with some self-reproach: "Yanyan's stomach really hasn't been good lately; I was too anxious about the project and forgot to remind her to eat on time."

Chen Xiaoxiao felt even angrier when she heard Gu Beicheng's words.

She curled her lips and muttered in a volume only she could hear: "Hmph, pretending to be considerate; who doesn't know what kind of person you are."

Back when Tang Zong had her car accident, Xu Tian could mess around with cheap women outside without changing his expression.

He even heard that when that woman got sick, he immediately wanted to donate bone marrow without a second thought.

Now he was performing deep affection in front of Tang Zong again; it was truly disgusting.

At the same time, the perceptive A Wei frowned imperceptibly after hearing Gu Beicheng's words.

Gu Xiansheng's meaning just now was that he was careless and forgot to remind the Young Lady to eat.

But in reality, when Tang Bingyan entered work mode, no one could disturb her.

They, the confidants who had been by the Young Lady's side since childhood, found persuasion useless and didn't even dare to try.

Although Gu Beicheng was the Young Lady's childhood sweetheart, he was the same as them; persuading her would only be counterproductive.

Therefore, in order not to displease the Young Lady, he would never take the initiative to disturb the Young Lady when she was working.

It was just that he hadn't expected that while Gu Beicheng was useless, Xu Tian could get Tang Bingyan to tacitly allow him to feed her.

Before A Wei could recover from his surprise, he felt one after another pleading gaze from those around him.

At this moment, those high-level executives who wished they could perform a disappearing act were frantically winking at A Wei.

The pretty boy had successfully ascended and was already showing off affection on the spot; should this meeting continue?

"Tang Zong, should we let them leave first?" A Wei received the pleading gazes of the executives and asked in a low voice.

"Continue the report."

Tang Bingyan calmly swallowed another mouthful of food fed by Xu Tian, the document in her hand already turned to the last page: "There are five loopholes in this plan. Next."

The executive who was rejected looked ashen and stepped forward like a wilted eggplant to take back his plan.

At the same time, another executive nervously handed over his plan.

It seemed this pretty boy really had some ability, being able to get along with Tang Zong without changing his expression, and even daring to act spoiled and throw a temper.

But Tang Zong was really good to this pretty boy; compared to him, Gu Xiansheng was really just an ordinary business partner.

Originally, they all thought that Tang Zong and Gu Xiansheng were childhood sweethearts and would eventually be together.

Now it seemed that love really didn't follow reason.

One thing subdues another; the business queen who made other companies tremble with fear could actually have the state of a woman in love.

"Yanyan, we have to go to the Lighthouse Country personally this time to negotiate with the boss of AM Company. I've already booked the flight tickets, they are at..." Gu Beicheng tried to pull Tang Bingyan's attention back from Xu Tian.

While speaking, he saw Xu Tian feed Tang Bingyan a spoonful of pine nut corn and immediately said: "Bingyan doesn't like eating corn."

Xu Tian's hand holding the spoon paused slightly, and he looked up at Gu Beicheng.

Indeed, although he had tried hard, there was still not much he knew about Tang Bingyan's preferences.

Not to mention that he had previously loathed Tang Bingyan and avoided her like a snake or scorpion.

Even if he had accepted Tang Bingyan from the beginning, his understanding of her certainly wasn't as much as Gu Beicheng, her childhood sweetheart.

"He doesn't even know Tang Zong doesn't like eating corn, yet he still has the nerve to show off affection; it's truly laughable..." Chen Xiaoxiao said sarcastically.

"Bingyan, you don't like eating corn?"

Xu Tian ignored Chen Xiaoxiao and asked Tang Bingyan: "If you don't like eating it, I'll be more careful next time I order food for you."

"I don't like it."

After Tang Bingyan finished speaking, she opened her mouth and ate the corn from Xu Tian's spoon.

Gu Beicheng: "..."

The crowd: "..."

Chen Xiaoxiao, who had originally wanted to take the opportunity to mock him a few times, had her expression freeze instantly. The words that were about to blurt out were stuck in her throat, making her face flush red.
