Behind me, through a door, is the corridor of the office building, and in front of me is a dragnet.

The bony index finger was just below her collarbone, rising and falling with her breathing.

A few centimeters further down, what his index finger touched was no longer her sternum, but soft flesh.

Meng Shuyu's heart was beating so fast that he felt he needed emergency treatment on the spot, and he hurriedly pushed the hand away.

"Zhou Jun, you are shameless! Is this your land? You haven't even obtained the land development rights yet and you're thinking about planting..." Meng Shuyu swallowed, "planting fruit..."

Zhou Jun was amused. He looked down at her without saying anything and just smiled.

The man took a step back and let her go.

Meng Shuyu was so nervous that her adrenaline was rushing. When she saw him retreat, she realized that he was teasing her on purpose because she had avoided him for the whole day. She breathed a sigh of relief.

But just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he was angered by Zhou Jun again.

Why is she so funny

Although she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run. She was not a naive little girl, so why should she just obey him and let him tease her

Meng Shuyu was so angry that he took advantage of Zhou Jun's carelessness, raised his eyes, leaned over and bit his Adam's apple.

Then he turned around, opened the door, and ran out quickly.

It was so fast that when Zhou Jun came to his senses, all he could see was a ray of light coming through the crack in the door.

In the dim light, Zhou Jun put away his smile, gently rolled his Adam's apple, and raised his hand to loosen the collar of his shirt.

Meng Shuyu carefully walked around the safety passage at the end of the corridor before returning to the general manager's office.

Not long after I sat down at my workstation, I heard three secretaries coming back with afternoon tea, chatting and laughing.

Seeing Zhou Jun standing in front of the office door, Tang Xuanxuan walked up to him with dessert in hand and called him: "Mr. Zhou, we bought some afternoon tea, would you like to pick something you like?"

Zhou Jun raised his unused hand halfway when he suddenly caught sight of the milkshake in the bag and glanced at the general manager's office across the street.

It just happened to meet Meng Shuyu's gaze.

"This one." Zhou Jun looked at Meng Shuyu and raised his hand towards Tang Xuanxuan.

In the distance, Meng Shuyu blinked in confusion.

"Okay," Tang Xuanxuan handed the milkshake to Zhou Jun, and returned to the general manager's office to ask Meng Shuyu, "Sister Shuyu, what flavor of milkshake do you want? I gave the strawberry flavor to President Zhou."

"… "

After being "educated" by Zhou Jun about the importance of trying to cover up something, Meng Shuyu reassessed the scale of getting along with him in the company.

Without the sudden shock, the performance did become more natural.

After a few days, this office romance finally took off.

However, Meng Shuyu still feels that having an underground relationship is not easy. You can see and touch the person but cannot hug him/her in the company every day, and you have to report your work seriously to your boyfriend. This really tests one's self-control!

After finally getting through the workday, Meng Shuyu had planned to spend two days alone on the weekend. However, when he and Zhou Jun were having a big meal outside on Friday night, he received Chen Xing's seventh question in seven days.

When will your boyfriend treat me to a meal? You don't have to come over, I'll bring my own bowl and chopsticks. I'm afraid if I don't eat this hot meal quickly, the duck in my mouth will fly away again!

You can’t blame Chen Xing for saying such an unlucky thing.

After all, when Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun were just one step away from being together, Chen Xing was waiting for Zhou Jun to treat her to a meal.

By the time your mouth is open, the food is gone.

After being a wingman for so long, my mentality has collapsed.

Meng Shuyu mentioned this to Zhou Jun, and Zhou Jun said that Tan Qin had been urging him to treat them recently, so they decided to go together. He gathered a group of four and asked Tan Qin and Chen Xing to discuss what to eat.

Tan Qin immediately changed the name of the group to "Zhai Zhou Chang" and frantically forwarded the sharing links that he had collected for a long time in the group, all of which were places to eat and have fun in Hangzhou.

Chen Xing was a little restrained when she first joined the group, but she was infected by Tan Qin's attitude and didn't hesitate to say "Hello, Boss Zhou" and started to order.

After Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun finished their dinner, they found that the number of messages in the group chat had reached 999+.

Shocked that this was the amount of conversation the two had within two hours, Meng Shuyu was very curious about what they talked about, so he scrolled through the magazine after he and Zhou Jun left the restaurant and got in the car.

It turned out that the two of them had a disagreement about ordering. One wanted to go east and the other wanted to go west. One wanted to eat this and the other wanted to eat that. In the end, they couldn't agree and neither of them gave in, so they started arguing.

And all the way from text messages to being too lazy to type, it turned into voice messages.

Meng Shuyu opened a voice message from Chen Xing to listen to it—

"Talking about the boss, I'm not saying that, in terms of merit, you should listen to me during this meal. Do you know how much effort I put in to make them successful? I was the first one to follow up with them. They were the only ones who knew each other. The other day, our Shu Yu wanted to find Boss Zhou but couldn't find him. It was me who helped her to stake out in front of Dr. Jian's hospital. Later, she didn't see anyone, and it was me who followed Boss Zhou in the car!"

Meng Shuyu: “…”

The resounding voice echoed in the closed compartment, and Meng Shuyu slowly turned his head to look at Zhou Jun in the driver's seat.

Zhou Jun looked back at her: "Assistant Meng, you have a good method."

"."

Chen Xing's voice message ended, and the message automatically jumped to the next unread message from Tan Qin.

"Boss Chen, you're taking too much credit, aren't you? Even if you hadn't been there to follow them, they would have run into them in Moridai sooner or later. Although you followed them earlier, I played a key role. Take the nightclub incident for example. If our Jun hadn't gotten the information in advance and asked me to accompany him there as a cover, wouldn't he have been discovered at a glance for going into the nightclub alone?"

Zhou Jun: “…”

Meng Shuyu sneered and glanced at Zhou Jun: "Mr. Zhou, it's mutual."

"."

Chen Xing: "Hey, I'm really excited when you mention this. You may not know that I was the one who invited Shu Yu to the nightclub that day. If I hadn't gone to Hangzhou to play with her, would she have gone to this disco? Does your boss Zhou have the chance to be a hero and save the beauty?"

Tan Qin: "Then let's call it a tie. Let me tell you something you weren't involved in. After the nightclub incident, our Jun wanted to go back to Nanhuai to visit his grandparents. If I hadn't mentioned it in front of Meng Zhu on purpose, Meng Zhu would never have gone with him out of pity. There was no way the two of them would have turned their fake play into a real one and been so affectionate!"

Zhou Jun: “…”

Meng Shuyu tilted his head and glared at Zhou Jun: "Boss Zhou, you are really going to any extreme lengths to do this?"

Chen Xing: "How do you know I wasn't involved in this? Wasn't it my suggestion that made the fake show you arranged come true? Did you know that Shu Yu returned to my house after they finished the show that day? That night she mentioned Zhou Jun a hundred times in front of me, and it was me who encouraged her!"

Meng Shuyu: “…”

Zhou Jun hissed softly, "Assistant Meng, you were defeated by that little bit of fakery. Do you have such poor self-control?"

Meng Shuyu opened his mouth but didn't refute. Fortunately, he heard the next voice message from Tan Qin: "Why do you have to use a few words of encouragement? I have more practical actions. For example, on the day when our Jun flew back from the United States during the National Day holiday, if I hadn't deliberately revealed the location of the hot spring villa in my circle of friends and pretended to accidentally take a picture of his hand and watch, would Meng Zhu have had the chance to catch up with me?"

Zhou Jun: “…”

Meng Shuyu gritted his teeth and said, "Awesome, Mr. Zhou."

Chen Xing: "Then you have started it, haven't you? If I hadn't made a prompt decision to book a room at the hot spring villa and dragged Shu Yu to buy a battle robe, would she have been able to catch up by herself?"

Zhou Jun nodded in understanding: "Great, Assistant Meng."

"… "

enough!

Are these two people quarreling among themselves

The quarrel was clearly about her and Zhou Jun's reputation!

No, Zhou Jun has long lost his shame.

They were just turning her face over and over and frying it on a frying pan to make pancakes!

Meng Shuyu pressed the "Hold to Talk" button: "If you two keep arguing, both of you will go to hell!!!"

Although Meng Shuyu said these harsh words, he still didn't mean to do it.

After all, when Chen Xing and Tan Qin counted everything in detail, she looked back and realized that these two people had indeed paid too much for her and Zhou Jun.

Seeing that the two were arguing endlessly about the hot spring villa, Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun finally booked a resort famous for its hot springs near Hangzhou to invite the two to visit.

Tan Qin and Chen Xing were so moved when they recalled the last time they just acted as wingmen but didn't get to soak in the hot spring, and they finally reached a consensus.

Of course, Meng Shuyu felt that they might have been moved in vain.

The reason why Zhou Jun took this step was probably because he heard that she had even bought a new swimsuit that time. Thinking about how he only let her soak for ten minutes before pulling her up, both his conscience and lust were condemned.

On Saturday afternoon, Zhou Jun drove Meng Shuyu to the resort.

The car wound its way up the winding mountain road, through a picturesque landscape with lush forests and bamboos shrouded in cold mist and a sea of clouds.

Meng Shuyu leaned on the windowsill and looked at the scenery along the way. While chatting with Zhou Jun, he took a few short videos and sent them to his parents.

Teacher Meng was quite free on the weekends, and soon sent me a question: How many people are playing together? Who will you stay with at night

Meng Shuyu came back from the window sill, closed the window and said to Zhou Jun: "My dad asked me who I was staying with tonight."

Zhou Jun looked at her with a smile: "What are you going to say?"

"To be honest, I'm not living with you. I'm not the kind of person who values women over friendship. I can't let Chen Xing live alone in a room."

Zhou Jun raised his eyebrows and nodded.

Arriving at the hotel halfway up the mountain, Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun got out of the car, handed the car keys and luggage to the hotel waiter, and walked inside.

At a glance, they saw Tan Qin and Chen Xing already sitting on the lounge chairs in the lobby waiting for them, arguing fiercely.

Meng Shuyu listened from afar and heard the two of them talking about drinking and memory loss, and they seemed to be still talking about the episode at the hot spring villa.

But this time the argument was not about her and Zhou Jun’s face.

Talk about how Qin Zheng got Chen Xing drunk and tricked him into talking when he was attacking Chen Xing.

Chen Xing said that she had lost a lot of money by drinking so much wine that she couldn't remember a single word when she woke up.

"Can you two just quiet down?" Meng Shuyu put his arm around Zhou Jun and walked forward.

"Oh," Chen Xing turned her eyes and saw the two people's perfect fit, "It's different when we're talking, right? Do we have to be conjoined twins just to get off the car?"

Tan Qin sighed, "Don't blame them. Our CEO Zhou and Assistant Meng have a hard time too. I saw them sitting side by side at the meeting this week. Which one was enduring and which one was holding back."

"..." Meng Shuyu turned around and asked Zhou Jun, "I have it, don't I?"

Zhou Jun thought for a moment and said, "That's what I have."

"Isn't it?" Tan Qin pointed at him, "I saw it all, and my eyes were tearful."

Meng Shuyu gently bumped Zhou Jun and said, "Why aren't your employees attending the meeting properly?"

Zhou Jun: "Talk about the department, and deduct performance."

"Hey, you two are singing the same tune, are you inviting us to play or to kill the dog?"

"No, it's not 'we'. I have a lot of suitors recently. It will be a matter of minutes to be single. The main thing I want is you, a dog." Chen Xing patted Tan Qin's shoulder.

After checking in at the front desk, Meng Shuyu and Chen Xing went back to their room to pack their luggage.

The two rooms are next door.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Jun and Tan Qin at the door, Chen Xing entered the room and immediately pulled Meng Shuyu to ask in a low voice: "Have you two slept together?"

Meng Shuyu was just unscrewing a bottle of water to drink when he choked on the water and coughed until his face turned red: "What are you thinking about? It's only been a short time!"

Chen Xing stroked her back and asked, "Did you spend the night on that bed?"

"Why stay the night? You live so close, you can walk home even if it's late! Besides, it's a weekday..."

"Then I'm relieved. I thought that because of my interference, you two couldn't sleep together and blamed me later." Chen Xing sighed, "So how far have you two progressed?"

"Just..." Meng Shuyu nodded her lips, "This one."

"Oh, you are quite innocent then."

"What kind of love is this? You don't know how kissable he is!"

Chen Xing looked sly: "So, is it fun?"

Meng Shuyu tried to hold back his smile and answered calmly, but he couldn't help it and raised the corners of his mouth to the sky: "Hmm..."

"Ah," Chen Xing sighed, "If I hadn't blacked out at the Hot Spring Villa, you two would have hit home runs by now."

When she mentioned this, Meng Shuyu suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I went to see Zhou Jun the next day to talk about Qin Kai's door, didn't I ask him what you talked about last night, and he said that you asked him some of Zhou Jun's private data."

"Private data?! That... that size?" Chen Xing covered her mouth, "I'm so strong after drinking? You dare to ask this?"

"The problem is that you asked everything, but you still didn't remember!" Meng Shuyu looked at her with disappointment.

"No, now that you mention it, I must think about it carefully. This is my sister's lifelong happiness, I must remember it." Chen Xing paced around the room, scratching her hair.

Meng Shuyu hung up clothes in front of the wardrobe.

Ten minutes later, when I finished tidying up and looked back, I saw that Chen Xing seemed to have given up thinking and was sitting on a recliner playing with her phone.

"Why are you playing with your phone now? Have you remembered Zhou Jun's size?" Meng Shuyu turned around and complained.

Chen Xing opened her mouth to answer, but when she looked up, she suddenly stopped and blinked blankly at the door as if she had seen a ghost.

Meng Shuyu was startled, then he leaned over and stuck his head out from the end of the closet.

At first glance, I saw the door that was not closed tightly, and the tall figure reflected in the gap of the door.

Outside the door, Zhou Jun's hand that was about to knock on the door stopped in mid-air. Whether or not to knock on the door became a problem for a moment.

The author has something to say: Okay, now I can answer your questions and resolve your doubts!
