Chapter 373: 373, Secretary during the Year of the Rabbit
Chapter 373: Secretary during the Year of the Rabbit
The next day, Huangyou made an investment.
Around eleven o’clock noon, assistant Xiaoliu glanced at the time and came over, “Sister Shi, the weather is great outside today. Let’s go to New World for clay pot rice. Today’s daily soup seems to be black chicken soup, it seems to be on sale.”
“Sure.” Shi Huan turned off her document and stood up.
“I’m coming too!”
“And me.”
“Together together.”
Everyone grabbed their coats and walked out of the secretarial room. The few of them who had just graduated from college were female students.
They walked and discussed the ever-popular topic of male idols.
“I think Luo Yunxi is so handsome!”
“1 like Deng Lun, his skin is very white, the kind of white that shines!
“What’s your taste, my Zhu Yilong is the most handsome!
“Zhu Yilong looks so charming when he wears glasses, doesn’t he!
“Yes, yes, Hove him best in ‘Guardian’!”
“A Guardian girl too? Me too, me too…”
Shi Huan didn’t recognize any of these male celebrities’ names.
She walked at the front of the line, looking down at her phone, preparing to ask
Luoluo if her health was better.
The weather recently suddenly turned cold, and the little one got a glamorous cold yesterday, sneezing while dressing in the morning.
“Young Master Chu!”
Hearing this name, Shi Huan quickly looked up.
Everyone else also greeted one after another.
“Young Master Chu.”
“Young Master Chu, good noon!”
“Hello, Young Master Chu.”
Chu Xiuhuang stood in the bright corridor.
He should just have arrived at the company, wearing a fine black coat, with his long legs straight and upright.
No different from his usual, still impeccable, handsome, and attractive,
except…
Seeing that obvious bite mark on his pretty lower lip, Shi Huan’s heart “thumped”.
The rest of the colleagues naturally saw it too, but dared not ask.
Each suspected it must be the work of some little demon.
“Sister Shi.” Xiaoliu nudged Shi Huan’s arm, whispering to remind, “Call him quickly.”
Shi Huan regained her composure, nodded busily and greeted, “Good noon,
Young Master Chu.”
Chu Xiuhuang’s sharp eyes narrowed and fell directly on her face.
She held a long black down jacket in her hand, and was wearing an unchanged black suit throughout the year.
Still the same shoulder-length hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses large enough to cover half of her fair face.
Everyone was a bit nervous.
Young Master Chu may not have a great temper, but he rarely behaves so childishly, blocking the hallway with such a dark face and not speaking.
What’s going on?
Shi Huan was also made uneasy by his stare. She squeezed her fingers and could only speak first, “Young Master Chu, we’re going downstairs for lunch.”
After saying this, she took a step forward.
Who knew that when she reached him, Chu Xiuhuang still stood blocking the way without moving.
The nervousness on everyone’s faces increased.
Then-
Chu Xiuhuang’s thin lips finally parted, “The boss hasn’t eaten yet, and you subordinates are hasty to go downstairs, is this appropriate?
Shi Huan was taken aback.
The others quickly reacted:
“Sister Shi, we’ll go first.”
“Yeah, Sister Shi, what do you want to eat? We can get it for you.
“Or just let me know later on WeChat.”
“Bye, Sister Shi.”
Chu Xiuhuang slightly moved his body, the others immediately passed him,
and then hurried into the elevator.
The moment the door closed, the elevator was filled with chatter.
“Secretary Shi has it tough!”
“Isn’t Young Master Chu too strict with her?”
“He won’t let her go to lunch, and she has to help him order takeaways first!” “So pitiful, even with a high salary, I wouldn’t want to be Secretary Shi!
“Yeah, let’s just continue being assistants. It’s easier.

In the hallway, Chu Xiuhuang lifted his chin, striding towards the office with
his long, straight legs.
Shi Huan quickly furrowed her brows and had no choice but to follow him. Reaching the office, Chu Xiuhuang took off his coat and carelessly threw it onto the sofa.
Sinking into the boss chair, he crossed one leg over the other.
So when Shi Huan came in, she saw Chu Xiuhuang dangerously seated behind the black office desk, half-closing his eyes, just staring at her.
“Chu what do you want for lunch?” Shi Huan behaved as if she hadn’t noticed his anger, taking out her phone to start work, “The steak set from Dihong or one from Jinsheng…”
“My mouth hurts.”
Shi Huan: “…”
Chu Xiuhuang continued, “Didn’t I just bump into you last night? Is it necessary to bite me like this, huh? Secretary Shi, are you a dog? I thought you were born in the year of the rabbit?
“Mr. Chu.” Shi Huan put down her phone, neither servile nor overbearing, her voice rigid and formal, “I’m sorry, last night was my fault.” Her good attitude slightly eased the anger in Chu Xiuhuang’s eyes, but…
“Is sorry enough? Do you realize, you are the first woman in the world to dare bite my lips!”
Chu Xiuhuang, tapping the desk with his fingers making “tok tok tok” sounds, showing his dissatisfaction, “And, you left me in the private room last night!” “Since Mr. Chu is in the office now, it means that you made it home safely last night.”
“You…” Chu Xiuhuang clenched his fist in anger.
Last night was his best buddy’s birthday. He got carried away and drank a little too much.
Then Shi Huan came to pick him up from the private room, and somehow both of them ended up on the sofa.
At the time, he seemed to smell a familiar scent. It was like a mix of citrus and floral, light, sweet, with a touch of mystery…
He didn’t know what happened to him. At that moment, he just saw her talking non-stop, without any lipstick on…
The second their lips made contact, the woman began struggling with all her might.
Of course he wouldn’t let go, so he fought back just as stubbornly.
And then…
She bit him.
She bit him damn hard.
His mouth hurt instantly, blood flowing out, the taste of iron sobrietying up his drunkenness.
When he realized the woman was his secretary Shi, he immediately jumped off the sofa, only for…
This damned woman to run away without looking back!
Making him feel like some kind of monster…
Thinking about last night, Chu Xiuhuang’s devilishly attractive eyes darkened a little more.
After some thought, he asked in a deep voice, “You reacted so intensely, could it be because…last night was your first time? As in…your first kiss??” Shi Huan, still expressionless, seemed disturbed only briefly. Then she continued with her emotionless answer, “Mr. Chu, you’re overthinking it. , Although I don’t have as much romantic experience as you, last night wasn’t my first.”
If she hadn’t said that, Chu Xiuhuang would have been less annoyed. Now he got up from his chair and slammed his long leg on the carpet, “If it wasn’t, then why the hell did you resist so much? Do you knowyou caused my lip to bleed.”
Shi Huan:
Two seconds later, she lowered her head, “I’m sorry, Mr. Chu, would you like me to get a band-aid for you?”
“No! Need!” Chu Xiuhuang glared at her, grinding his teeth, “I want you to look at my bitten lip every day and regret the mistake you made!”
Shi Huan: “…”
“Starting from today, I’ll come to the office at nine in the morning and leave at five in the afternoon. I’ll attend all the company meetings, and you…” He pointed at Shi Huan, “You must look at me every day and repent in your heart.”
Shi Huan once again:”…”
“What’s on the agenda this afternoon?” Chu Xiuhuang changed the subject.
Shi Huan quickly gathered her thoughts and answered, “At two o’clock, there’s a financial department meeting about last month’s fund flow. At three, it’s training for new secretaries. At four, we’re discussing the property launch with HuoYuan…”
“I’ll go to HuoYuan with you at four.”
“Okay.” Shi Huan looked at him, “Mr. Chu, do you have any other instructions?”
“Get me some food.” Chu Xiuhuang enunciated every word, “I want the same thing as you.”
“Sure, Mr. Chu, I’ll go downstairs now to get your lunch personally.” After finishing, Shi Huan turned and left.
When the door closed, Chu Xiuhuang picked up his phone.
But just after reading a piece of news, he began to think about last night in the private room again.
Who would’ve thought…
This Shi Huan, while appearing so drab and boring on the outside, tasted quite sweet…
With a bang, Chu Xiuhuang suddenly put his phone back on the desk.
He lowered his head.
The long, narrow eyes of his showed a moment of shock.
Damn!
It must’ve been too long since he was last with a woman!
