SCHS - Chapter 108
Chapter 108
Wen Shixue hooked her finger around Qin Zhen's black tie, tilted her head, and lightly bit her thin, rosy lips. Her eyes were full of tender love and laughter.
Pulled by her tie so suddenly, Qin Zhen was caught off guard at first. But when she leaned over and saw the light in Wen Shixue's eyes, she unconsciously and willingly let her do as she pleased.
Not only did they have Wen Lianchang and his wife supporting them now, but also the Xu family couple. They weren't worried at all about being seen. However, they had been busy with work lately, dealing with new packaging and various collaborations, as well as focusing on the "Gui Hong" anniversary event. They hadn't had the free time to formally and seriously announce their relationship.
Wen Lianchang had promised Wen Shixue that as long as Chenfeng's profit this year doubled compared to last year, it would be enough to prove her capability. He would then grant all her requests, and the future head of the Wen Group would naturally be her, without question. So she had to continue working hard this year. It was better to be busy when there was work to do than to be idle and wish for work. Plus, she could recharge with her girlfriend after work, making her days fulfilling and happy.
Light kisses brushed, lips and tongues intertwined in the heat of love, then subsided in the ambiguous atmosphere. Wen Shixue's eyes were like silken threads, the shimmering autumn water within them seeming to gently engulf her lover before her. She smiled and said, "Work was too tiring today, need a recharge after getting off work." Then she smiled sweetly, "My Lao Qin worked hard too. You look especially good today, I really like it."
Qin Zhen sighed helplessly, her eyes full of tenderness as she stroked Wen Shixue's head. "You worked hard. What do you want to eat tonight?"
Wen Shixue propped her chin on her fist and said without hesitation, "Let's eat out. Don't cook when you're so tired, okay?"
Qin Zhen nodded indulgently. "Okay."
Wen Shixue immediately pulled out her phone. "Let's go to Uncle Xu's restaurant. I remember you said you liked their grilled eggplant before. I'll make a reservation."
Having decided, the two drove off.
As for the secretary who had received a year's worth of shock, she had quickly slipped away the moment she saw them kissing, afraid of being discovered. But human nature is to gossip, and as soon as she got home, she couldn't help but secretly share the fresh gossip with a few close colleagues at the company.
—[Sisters, I saw our serious and elegant Vice President being pulled by her tie and forcefully kissed by President Wen in the car!!!]
The chat group instantly exploded, with various points of focus:
[Good heavens, the domineering CEO is right beside us!]
[Forceful kiss??? My mind is starting to conjure up angsty eighteen-plus novels]
[What?! President Wen likes women??? Did I miss an opportunity to save ten years of struggle! [Tactical retreat.JPG]]
[Being with the boss is like being with a tiger, you never know when you'll be eaten. Vice President Qin is so difficult, Vice President Qin is too difficult, pitying Vice President Qin for a second]
[That word "eaten" you used is quite insightful]
Wen Shixue was watering her flowers with a small watering can while talking on the phone with Jiang Manwei, listening to the other person say anxiously and nervously, "Shixue, I'm really nervous!" "Are his parents really not fierce?" "Didn't they scold you last time?" "Ahhhh, meeting your boyfriend's parents is too nerve-wracking!"
After Wen Shixue and Xu Jianfan's engagement was broken off, the Xu couple specifically went back to look at Jiang Manwei's interviews and works. They also rewatched the video of her and Wen Shixue's livestream from a while ago, watching Wen Shixue last time and her this time. In the livestream, she was articulate, sincere in her attitude, graceful in her demeanor, and both affectionate and caring towards Wen Shixue. She was emotionally intelligent and good at smoothing things over, and she spoke very nicely, making it hard not to like her. The couple had a good first impression of her, so they proactively suggested that Xu Jianfan bring his girlfriend home for them to meet.
Even though she had acted out countless scenes of going home with her boyfriend in dramas, Jiang Manwei still felt flustered when it actually happened. She wanted to make a good impression, but was also afraid of being nervous, saying or doing the wrong thing, making them dislike her, and disagreeing with their relationship. She became increasingly uneasy and cautious.
Wen Shixue patiently soothed her emotions.
"They're not fierce."
"Didn't they apologize to me afterwards?"
"It's okay. You're upright and proper. Being with Jianfan means you're their daughter-in-law, their daughter. They want a daughter so much, they'll definitely treat you very well."
"Relax, what kind of situation can our great actress Jiang not handle? How about you think about how flustered Xu Jianfan will be when he meets your parents? Doesn't that make you feel a little more balanced and comforted?"
Jiang Manwei suddenly calmed down. "You have a point." She added, "I'm going to call him."
As soon as Wen Shixue heard "call," she put down the watering can, smiled slightly, and sincerely wished, "I hope you two move in together soon. Cohabitation is really great." Being able to see your beautiful wife every day, kiss and hug and sleep together, and eat the food your wife cooks every day, plus saving on phone bills, it's simply too wonderful!
Jiang Manwei: "...Stop talking, I'm jealous."
When Wen Shixue hung up the phone, Qin Zhen had also finished the last bit of work and walked out of the study. Seeing her put down the phone, she casually asked, "Did Miss Jiang need something?"
Wen Shixue replied, "Jianfan is taking her home to meet his parents. She's nervous and asked me to help her calm down."
At Wen Shixue's mention, Qin Zhen suddenly remembered that she hadn't met Wen Lianchang since she got together with Wen Shixue. So, she would also have to go home with Wen Shixue and formally meet Wen Lianchang and his wife, just like Jiang Manwei.
Although she had met Wen Lianchang and his wife before, the thought of meeting them as Wen Shixue's girlfriend made a hint of shyness and nervousness, uncharacteristic of her steady nature, bubble up in her heart...
They had to meet eventually, just be calm. She reassured herself.
Wen Shixue looked up at her, instantly understanding what she was silently thinking. She smiled and reached out to stroke her ear. "Our situation is different. Lao Wen and the others have already agreed to us being together. We have plenty of confidence, no need to be nervous."
Qin Zhen held her hand, nodded slightly, and sat down obediently on the sofa to tell her about work matters.
Wen Shixue sat in her lap, hugging her, resting her head on her shoulder. While listening, she rubbed her chin against her shoulder little by little. After Qin Zhen finished speaking, she rubbed her chin, which had been pressed against the shoulder bone, and said very seriously, "Lao Qin, you're too thin. You need to eat more. What if you get blown away by the wind one day? What would I do?"
Qin Zhen measured her arms and legs with her eyes, remembering how easily she could pick her up. She couldn't help but laugh, shook her head, pulled the person closer into her arms, and indulgently pinched her round, slightly red nose. "You're the one who should eat more, otherwise what if you get blown away by the wind?"
Wen Shixue grabbed her hand and wrapped it tighter around her waist. "Then you just hold me tight like this, and I won't be blown away. You have to hold onto your own wife."
Qin Zhen couldn't argue with her, but she had already learned the art of compliance. "Okay, everything my Shixue says is right."
Wen Shixue was pleased by the coaxing and rubbed her head against Qin Zhen's neck, making Qin Zhen momentarily suspect she had adopted a clingy cat. She waited until Wen Shixue had rubbed enough before patting her back, reminding her it was time for bed.
Wen Shixue said okay and got up to drink water. Just then, Wen Yue called. As soon as Wen Shixue answered, she heard her excitedly say, "Sister, pull some strings for me, help me reserve a set! I'm afraid I won't be able to get one!!!"
The game merchandise collaboration between Chenfeng Jewelry and "Gui Hong" was going to be released as a limited edition in the game store tomorrow. Wen Yue asked her friends and family around her and found that everyone intended to try and grab the physical merchandise. She suddenly realized that her hand speed might cause her to lose in this battle of snatching. But she still wanted to participate and try to grab one herself. It would be great if she could get one, but if not... she still had a sister who was the boss of Chenfeng!
Wen Shixue pulled the phone away a bit, and waited until Wen Yue's voice calmed down before laughing and teasing her, "You have so little faith in your hand speed? What if you manage to get one?"
Wen Yue said very strategically, "If I get one, I'll give the extra one away in a lucky draw to accumulate good luck! Maybe it'll help me turn from unlucky to lucky from now on, hehe."
Wen Shixue smiled. "Alright, got it. I'm going to sleep now, I have to work tomorrow."
Wen Yue said very respectfully on the phone, "Farewell, President Wen. Wishing President Wen sweet dreams, good night, mwah mwah da."
Wen Shixue replied, "Good night, no mwah mwah da for you."
Wen Yue said strongly, "It's okay, even so, my love for you won't disappear!" Wen Yue: As long as you give me the game merchandise, we'll be the best sisters in the world!
After hanging up the phone and drinking water, Wen Shixue saw Qin Zhen about to walk back to the bedroom. She immediately called out to her, ran over quickly, and jumped onto her, saying with a smile, "Let me hitch a ride."
Qin Zhen caught her steadily and carried her back to the bedroom with a smile. "You've become lazy." The little devil had finally turned into a little lazybones.
Wen Shixue hugged her tightly and said shamelessly, "It's not becoming lazy, it's becoming more clingy to my girlfriend."
Qin Zhen happily accepted her explanation.
Before turning off the light, Wen Shixue got up and kissed her on the lips, her smile sweet. "Good night, mwah mwah da."
The "Gui Hong" anniversary celebration arrived as scheduled, and the atmosphere was as lively as ever. This year, both the anniversary game outfits and the game merchandise were exquisitely made. The limited editions sold out rapidly upon release, repeatedly breaking the record for the fastest sell-out time in "Gui Hong"'s history.
With Wen Shixue in charge, Chenfeng Jewelry naturally wouldn't hold "Gui Hong" back; they would definitely ensure quality and quantity. They used the new packaging template and specially designed new packaging boxes for each major sect. The dark blue boxes had the golden embossed emblem of each sect in the bottom right corner. Chenfeng's logo was placed next to it, not looking out of place at all, making the overall design elegant and grand.
The merchandise boxes would be selected based on the sect the player chose, a small surprise from Chenfeng and "Gui Hong" for the players, and also "Gui Hong"'s way of thanking players for their long-term companionship.
After players successively received their game merchandise, the topics #GuiHongConscientious#, #ThatManUnderstandsMeSoWell#, and #ChenfengJewelryPackaging# quickly climbed to the top of the hot searches.
@ShadowPuppet: Wuwuwuwu Lao Yang, this man is too good! I can love "Gui Hong" for another ten years!!! Cangshan Sect is the best!!!
@WhyCan'tPeopleAlwaysBeHealthy: I love both the packaging and the necklace!!!
@APigeonInTheSky: Sisters, Chenfeng Jewelry changed their packaging this year, and I found their new packaging is also so beautiful! Printed with golden roses! And other patterns! Super suitable for collecting!
@YouAreMyEasterEgg: Ahhhhhh damn it! I didn't get anything that day! I didn't even win Chenfeng's lucky draw wuwuwu, @ChenfengJewelry @GuiHong you two come out and make money!
This time, the hot searches, which cost not a single cent, resulted in a win-win for both Chenfeng and "Gui Hong," bringing both traffic and fame. It was a sure profit. As expected, Wen Yue didn't manage to grab one, but thankfully, she had Wen Shixue, so she didn't return empty-handed.
Wen Yue: This is happiness!
The "Gui Hong" anniversary celebration concluded perfectly. Qin Zhen, who was in charge of this project, could finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, outside the company pantry, she suddenly stumbled upon gossip about herself.
"Someone saw President Wen forcefully kissing Vice President Qin in the car!" someone said, trying to keep their gossipy voice down.
Then, voices of discussion followed one after another, whether surprised, gossipy, doubtful, or excited, uniformly displaying the human nature of loving gossip to the fullest.
Vice President Qin herself: "....."
If they continued talking, Wen Shixue's image would develop in a strange direction. So, she stepped in. Her calm and composed aura instantly suppressed the voices of discussion. Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and they felt awkward, their toes curling enough to dig a detached villa on the floor. So embarrassing, so embarrassing...
Qin Zhen slowly opened her lips. "To clarify, it wasn't a forceful kiss."
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears, thinking in unison: Here it comes, the person involved is refuting the rumor. As expected, there's nothing going on between them...
Then Qin Zhen added, "It was consensual."
Everyone: "????"
Did our ears malfunction???
