After saying this, Shen Mi felt that his appearance and words were a bit stupid.
She knelt up with her hands on the quilt, then quickly stood up and pointed at the crumpled quilt: "I'm making the bed for you, do you believe it?"
She subconsciously didn't use honorifics.
"What do you think?" Xie Rongzhuo took off his coat.
Shen Mi stood up and stretched out his hand to take it, but halfway through, he retracted his hand and rubbed his waist to cover up: "Your quilt is so heavy."
She looked at the balcony very deliberately, indicating that the quilt had really been dried there.
However, Xie Rongzhuo didn't even look at her. He took off his tie and unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, looking like he was going to take a shower.
Shen Mi stood at the door of the cloakroom, looking a little uncomfortable: "If you are afraid of getting dirty, I can help you change the sheets and wash them." She said this with an apologetic tone.
She knelt across Xie Rongzhuo's bed and was seen by him. This must be very difficult for a person with mysophobia to bear.
Xie Rongzhuo tilted his head, looked her up and down, and finally moved his gaze to her face: "Where are you dirty?"
He actually didn't dislike her? Shen Mi was quite surprised, and secretly felt happy inside. Even she herself couldn't tell why she was so happy.
A man and a woman were alone in the man's bedroom, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.
Shen Mi spontaneously looked for a topic: "Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"
Xie Rongzhuo did not answer but asked: "Why don't you come when I come back?"
Shen Mi guessed what he wanted to say and refused to continue, "If everything is fine, I'll go back first."
The wrist was caught.
Shen Mi lowered her head. Xie Rongzhuo's hands were cold, white, slender, and very beautiful. They didn't look like a man's hands, but the bones were extremely strong. It seemed like a light touch, but it was actually very threatening. Shen Mi felt that if she struggled, she would be pulled over by him immediately.
She didn't dare to struggle, hiding the strange panic in her heart: "It's time to get off work now."
Xie Rongzhuo remained calm: "I don't have the habit of touching female subordinates either."
But his grip was like an iron clamp around her.
Since knowing that Xie Rongzhuo was the master, everything has changed invisibly. Such contact made Shen Mi feel at a loss. She could only pretend to be calm and deliberately use honorifics: "What do you mean now?" After that, she brought up the elders: "My father said that men and women should not touch each other."
Xie Rongzhuo: "This sentence should be said by Mencius."
Shen Mi: “…”
"But I remember you said," Xie Rongzhuo said calmly, "I hate it most when a man lets his girlfriend calm down on her own. You said that once the anger has subsided, you can kick the person out."
"We are not in that kind of relationship. I can calm down on my own." Shen Mi thought to himself, how much of his love experience had he shared with the light bulb that was overheard by Xie Rongzhuo!
"Besides, I have no experience. I only cheat on children. It doesn't count."
Lightbulb is a high school student.
Xie Rongzhuo said: "You have no experience, and the example you are using is yourself, so it is applicable."
Well, it does apply.
"I'm not angry." She smiled, not wanting him to think she was childish and unprofessional.
Xie Rongzhuo stared at her: "It's easy to tell a fake smile."
Shen Mi refused to admit it: "The me on the Internet is fake."
"I can tell whether it's fake or not. You can pretend if you want, but you'll be the one who gets tired." Xie Rongzhuo let go of her, turned around and walked out, walked to the wine cabinet, and picked up a wine glass at random: "Want a drink?"
Shen Mi rubbed her sore wrist. She was so angry, but Xie Rongzhuo was able to be so relaxed and casual. She finally couldn't stand it anymore and stopped talking about that matter: "Are you happy to see me acting cute and stupid in front of you?"
As if he had expected her to lose her temper, Xie Rongzhuo nodded and said, "Happy."
"You have a bad taste!" Shen Mi couldn't control his emotions anymore and reached out to ask him for a drink.
Xie Rongzhuo generously handed her a glass and said, "I didn't expect you to have so many bad tastes."
Shen Mi took a sip of the wine, which made her throat a little spicy and not tasty, so she put down the glass.
Did she reveal a lot of bad taste
She met Xie Rongzhuo by chance when she was at her lowest point. She was bullied in reality and in the game. That day, Shen Mi's mentality exploded. Her body was buried in the wilderness and she couldn't complete the task. She wanted to touch the Internet cable and strangle her enemy to death.
Just when she was at her wit's end, a beam of white light descended from the sky, protected her behind her, and killed her enemy. It was hard not to be excited at that moment.
She was persistent and tried to force people to become her apprentice. Every time before she won, she would flatter and say some bullshit and lines like a female internet hooligan.
Those "lines" perfectly matched the bad taste mentioned by Xie Rongzhuo.
Shen Mi suddenly realized that something was wrong and could not follow his thoughts to reflect on himself: "We are talking about your problem now, don't drag me into it."
Courage is not always available, and it is better to end it here after finally starting. Shen Mi took another sip of wine to give himself courage.
Xie Rongzhuo looked down at her: "What did I do to you?"
No, he didn't do anything, it was all her who was being a hooligan. She dared to do it but didn't dare to take responsibility, she was afraid of what people would say, so it was her problem. If she continued to follow his words, she would not have the upper hand.
Shen Mi was not disturbed by him and said calmly: "Don't confuse people. Now I am saying that you hid this from me."
Xie Rongzhuo said, "We were strangers at the time and met in the game. What should I confess to you? You wouldn't like me to use Zhang Zhiqing to get close to you and chat with you, right? Shen Mi."
He is right.
At that time, she was severely humiliated by Ke Zhan's mother and just wanted to escape from the three-dimensional world. If she knew that her "savior" was her friend's uncle, she would never talk to him about everything, and might not even add him as a game friend.
"You had many opportunities to tell me the truth later, why did you lie to me?" Shen Mi focused on this question.
Xie Rongzhuo: "It's not a lie, it's just another way to make friends."
Shen Mi deliberately said in a sarcastic tone: "There are many scammers on the Internet."
“Are you a liar?”
Xie Rongzhuo stared at her, his eyes moving slightly: "Indeed."
"She is a beautiful liar who is hard to guard against."
Perhaps because of his deep eyebrows and eyes, Xie Rongzhuo's eyes were full of affection when he looked at the telephone poles. Shen Mi couldn't stand his eyes and turned his head away: "... Don't praise me."
"Okay." Xie Rongzhuo readily agreed, "Shen Mi, if you feel embarrassed, I can forget about it. I never knew you before you were transferred here."
She acted so cute online, and he couldn't refuse such a cute little apprentice. Later, he took the initiative to expose her and pull her out of the illusion of online love. Look, how good he is. He cleared himself of all blame, and it was her fault.
Shen Mi finally understood the capitalists' ability to change concepts.
If she continues to talk, she will be unreasonable.
"I've finished eating for you."
Xie Rongzhuo: "Thank you for your hard work."
"You're welcome." Shen Mi turned around.
Xie Rongzhuo suddenly asked: "Am I really that different from the Internet?"
Shen Mi turned around and raised his face so that he could see more clearly: "So do you think I am cute in real life?"
Shen Mi had a pair of distinct black and white eyes, clear pupils, and curled eyelashes that made her skin look white. She suddenly moved closer, and Xie Rongzhuo was stunned for a moment, pausing for two seconds before lowering his eyelids.
He replied: "Cute."
Shen Mi felt like he was being led astray by him again.
He had praised her, so she couldn't say he was two-faced.
She couldn't boast.
"Oh, thank you." The nameless anger grew even stronger.
Xie Rongzhuo studied her expression and asked, "Are you still angry?"
Shen Mi asked back: "Why am I angry?"
"I can't imagine it," Xie Rongzhuo curled the corner of his lip, "You always scold me in front of me, but I'm not angry, so why are you angry? But you don't look like you're in a good mood."
Shen Mi has always been eloquent, but once Xie Rongzhuo opened his mouth, she felt like she was still a rookie.
She was at a loss for words, but didn't want to admit defeat, so she had to change the subject: "I'm more used to the taciturn Mr. Xie."
Xie Rongzhuo chuckled: "You are so quiet, how can I coax you?"
Shen Mi felt like the softest part of his heart was poked, and he recalled countless moments when his heart was moved by "How Mysterious".
But the "mysterious" real self was telling her to face reality and not like him.
The feeling of loss that came to nothing made her very depressed.
"Don't coax me," she said frankly, "I'm not as innocent and cute as I am in the game. I just coaxed you to play with me."
Xie Rongzhuo said: "Cuteness is part of your personality and belongs to you."
Shen Mi was so flattered by his praise that he lost his temper: "I want to go back."
Xie Rongzhuo: "I'll take you there."
"You've been drinking," Shen Mi pointed at the cup on the table, "You can't drive."
Xie Rongzhuo: "You said you're not angry, but your tongue is not working. This is sparkling water."
"… "
Shen Mi felt that if she stayed any longer she would reveal more of her emotions, and she didn't want to be understood by him.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Xie."
Xie Rongzhuo glanced at her: "Isn't she my dear master?"
"Dear Master", "Beauty Master", these titles were given to him by Shen Mi. She called him that every day and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but when they came out of Xie Rongzhuo's mouth, Shen Mi got goosebumps.
The Internet is not a lawless place. Be careful when you act like a hooligan online, as you may be exposed at any time.
Shen Mi realized this deeply.
The two walked out side by side.
Shen Mi raised his eyes and saw the red marks on Xie Rongzhuo's neck. He blinked, a little bit unable to believe it.
He did this while on a business trip
Facing her inquiring gaze, Xie Rongzhuo raised his eyebrow slightly: "What are you thinking about?"
Shen Mi: "You know."
Xie Rongzhuo said: "It's an allergy, not a hickey."
Shen Mi had no experience with allergies and was skeptical: "Really?"
Xie Rongzhuo raised his hand to loosen his bow tie, and suddenly unbuttoned two buttons, revealing a large area of cold white skin on his neck.
He bent down slightly: "Did you see it clearly?"
Shen Mi took a closer look and saw that it was indeed a red rash.
Two seconds later, she suddenly looked away, her cheeks slightly hot: "Do I need help buying you medicine?"
*
The next day at noon, Shen Mi found an excuse to work overtime and did not accompany Xie Rongzhuo to eat.
Ning Xinlei took the meal tray and sat opposite Shen Mi, glancing at the empty seat next to her: "Hey, why isn't Zhang Zhiqing with you today?"
Shen Mi picked up the chopsticks: "She went out to eat today." She guessed that Xie Rongzhuo didn't like eating alone, so he called Zhang Zhiqing over.
"Looking at what she wears and uses, all of them are famous brands. She must come from a wealthy family."
Shen Mi smiled. How could Xie Rongzhuo's niece not have a good family background
Ning Xinlei glanced around and lowered her voice: "Shen Mi, do you know that the boss's white moonlight is back!"
Shen Mi almost choked.
"Whose white moonlight? Xie Rongzhuo?"
"Shh! Be careful not to be heard by others talking about the boss behind his back." Ning Xinlei said, "Didn't you notice that no one is talking in the group?"
Since the last false statement, Shen Mi rarely checked the group: "Why?"
"Didn't HR Xiao Zhang take the lead in gossiping about the boss and Bi Jinglin in the group? I don't know who took the screenshot and reported it to the boss. The next day, he was transferred to a branch company. What does this mean? It means that the boss's sweetheart is right next to him! The boss is worried that the rumors will make her jealous, so he wants to make an example of her!"
Shen Mi stared at the rice in a daze.
"This is true," Ning Xinlei said, "a friend of mine in Beijing heard it from her relative. Her relative was working as a temporary caregiver for the boss's father in the hospital, and she heard the boss's father say with her own ears that the boss has someone in his heart!"
Shen Mi raised his head and blinked in confusion.
Ning Xinlei was struck by her beauty: "Don't look at me like that, I can't stand it. Anyway, the source of the news is safe and reliable! I'm not telling you this for gossip, but to remind you not to offend the opposite sex around your boss in the near future. Be patient and forbear with everything, maybe that's your future boss's wife."
When Ning Xinlei learned about this, it suddenly dawned on her that it was no wonder that Xie Rongzhuo was not moved by such a beauty like Shen Mi even though he was with her day and night. It must be that he had someone in his heart.
"The opposite sex around the boss before were all partners. Is this someone who appeared recently?" Shen Mi is struggling to make ends meet now. This job is very important to her. If Xie Rongzhuo has a crush on someone, she must be careful.
Shen Mi had suffered too much loss in the past, and he didn't want history to repeat itself and lose his job.
As for the rest, she didn't have the heart to think about it.
Seeing that Shen Mi had listened carefully, Ning Xinlei was very relieved: "I don't know the details, but I heard that the boss's father is going to give his daughter-in-law a red envelope of 990,000 yuan. On that day, the boss will also present himself as a gift to her!"
Shen Mi: “…”
"In short, the Xie family has three generations working together to receive her. You understand the situation, right?" Ning Xinlei cast a sympathetic look at Shen Mi: "The position of a female secretary is itself shrouded in ambiguity, and you are so beautiful, it is hard not to arouse hostility from the other party."
Shen Mi pondered over the opposite sex around Xie Rongzhuo recently, and they were full of hostility towards her.
That Liu Yafeng
It was not right that Xie Rongzhuo accepted her interview, and his attitude at that time was obviously very tough.
However, Shen Mi did not completely believe it. She followed Xie Rongzhuo every day, and sooner or later she would see it with her own eyes.
*
In the next few days, except for working hours, Shen Mi would never be alone with Xie Rongzhuo unless it was necessary, and would no longer bring him breakfast.
Xie Rongzhuo naturally discovered it as well.
Shen Mi didn't make breakfast for him these days. As soon as she entered his house, she picked out her clothes in a businesslike manner and then stood at the door waiting for him. She was very professional and there was nothing wrong with her, but Xie Rongzhuo could clearly feel her change.
At noon, Shen Mi took advantage of Xie Rongzhuo's absence from the office and hurriedly sent the documents in. Just as he was about to leave, Xie Rongzhuo suddenly appeared and blocked him at the door.
"Come in."
She dared not disobey her boss's order, so Shen Mi went in.
"Close the door."
Shen Mi did as he was told.
When she turned around, she bumped into Xie Rongzhuo's collarbone. She stepped back hastily and stood close to the door vigilantly.
She thought it was an accident and waited for him to move out of the way.
Not only did Xie Rongzhuo not give way, but he moved forward, and his tall body trapped her behind the door, giving her a very oppressive feeling.
He lowered his head and asked, "Why are you hiding from me?"
Shen Mi's heartbeat quickened as he took a deep breath. He appeared calm on the surface, "I have completed all the tasks you assigned to me."
"Still mad at me?"
Xie Rongzhuo was not a particularly patient person, Shen Mi was very clear about this. He had given her the opportunity to release her emotions, and she chose to live in peace with him. It was impossible for her to lose her temper in front of him now.
Just because she doesn't make a fuss doesn't mean she doesn't mind.
No matter how stupid a person is, he would not be fooled and still chat and laugh with the "swindler".
She looked up at him: "Boss, it's working time now."
Xie Rongzhuo stared at her for a few seconds, not knowing what he was thinking.
"You should also go to the cocktail party tonight."
Shen Mi obeyed the arrangement: "Okay."
*
After get off work, Shen Mi and Xie Rongzhuo went home to change clothes. They were businessmen who were particular about what they wore to work and what they wore for social events, but Shen Mi felt that Xie Rongzhuo looked the same no matter what he wore.
He was tall and straight, with distinct abdominal muscles, and wore a carefully tailored suit, exuding a deadly uniform aura.
It's indeed strange that such a tall, rich and handsome man is still single.
After getting the clothes, Shen Mi retreated to the door of the cloakroom, folded his hands, and stood straight.
Xie Rongzhuo turned his head to look over and handed her the tie.
"… "
Shen Mi wanted to hint that he should do it himself, but Xie Rongzhuo didn't understand her intention. It was because she had been too considerate in the past, and he was already used to it.
She reached out to take the tie and stood in front of the dressing mirror.
The two figures were reflected in the mirror.
Xie Rongzhuo leaned forward slightly. Shen Mi hesitated for two seconds and stood on tiptoe to reach the back of his neck. Xie Rongzhuo was much taller than her and was particularly lazy today. Although he seemed to lower his neck, his height did not decrease at all.
Shen Mixu held onto his broad shoulders and struggled to hook the tie behind his neck. She had to keep a distance from him while ensuring that the tie was neat. This action was extremely unfriendly to her height.
Xie Rongzhuo seemed to be aware of her hard work and suddenly bent down to cooperate. The distance between them suddenly shortened. Shen Mi paused what she was doing and looked up at the handsome face so close to her.
Her eyes fell on Xie Rongzhuo's clear jaw, thin lips, and high nose bridge. Looking up, she met the pair of black eyes behind the lenses that were gleaming with tiny rays of light. She quickly looked away and lowered her head.
She had a hunch that if they stared at each other for more than three seconds, Xie Rongzhuo would definitely say something.
She didn't want to quarrel with him, it would do her no good.
She also didn't want Xie Rongzhuo to know that she was still obsessed with "Duomi".
In Xie Rongzhuo's eyes, online dating is probably not a glorious thing, because all his previous remarks were denying netizens.
She handed him the suit jacket.
"Shen Mi, have you believed any rumors?" Xie Rongzhuo's voice sounded from above his head.
Shen Mi glanced at Xie Rongzhuo's white shirt.
The right side of the collar seemed to have been rubbed with her lipstick.
She resisted the urge to take off his coat and stared at the piece, "Like?"
"That reporter." Xie Rongzhuo was very direct this time, "I'm not familiar with her. Accepting the interview was purely a coincidence."
Shen Mi was stunned for a moment, but remained calm: "Isn't she your ex-girlfriend?"
"no."
Xie Rongzhuo lowered his eyes: "Are you interested in my love history?"
Shen Mi didn't dare to say "yes", for fear of being exiled to the frontier like HR Xiao Zhang.
She pointed at his collar and apologized, "There's a little lipstick on it."
Xie Rongzhuo opened his coat and looked down.
“Is this called a little?”
Shen Mi blushed a little: "Can I help you change one?"
"It's too late." Xie Rongzhuo adjusted his watch. "It's yours anyway." He raised his eyes. "If someone sees us, you can explain it for me."
Shen Mi: “…”

Uncle Xie, I can hear your thoughts through the screen!
