Chapter 58 You're Showing Me Love

  On Monday morning, half an hour before the meeting, Ning Meng carried a stack of materials to the conference room, lost in thought. The door was slightly ajar, so she simply lifted her foot and kicked it open with force. Just as she was about to enter, she raised her head and saw a magnified face in front of her.

  "Ah……” She let out a loud cry, her feet stumbling, and with one hand supporting her from the side, she steadied herself. Unaware that half of her body was leaning against someone's chest, her posture was quite ambiguous.

  "What's wrong? Have you seen a ghost?" A refreshing breath came between her nostrils, she raised her head to look, Guan Xuan furrowed his brow, looking at her with suspicion, his mouth opening and closing...

  Her mouth... Ning Meng's conditioned reflex, the scene that night suddenly flooded her mind, and she was momentarily stunned. She stuttered, "Manager Guan... so early, I didn't think anyone would be inside... how did you end up here?"

  The string seems a bit unnatural in expression, saying, "There's something that can't be found, I'll come and see if it's fallen in the conference room..."

  "Oh, I see... " She suggested with a flattering tone, "Why bother the boss to do it personally? What thing are you looking for? Let me help you find it?"

  He raised an eyebrow, saying casually, "Oh, no need... I've already looked for it, it should be somewhere else..." Then he glanced at the materials in her hand, seeming a bit displeased, "Can't you find a place to put them down? Or... are they not heavy?"

  This stack of files is not heavy? It's simply a triangular eye with eyeballs... And, he can't have some gentlemanly demeanor as a big man? Looking at a young lady holding a small mountain and having both hands in her pockets, she doesn't even want to lend a hand...

  Ning Meng muttered to herself while fiddling with materials, and when she turned her head, she saw that her boss's face didn't look too good.

  "Are you secretly scolding me? You wicked capitalist, cold-blooded and inhumane..." he said calmly.

  "This guy is amazing, he can even lip-read. Is this a skill that all CEOs need to have? He's even more formidable than the secret agents of the Song Dynasty. He even knows if his subordinates are talking behind his back... Ning Meng was startled and immediately clarified himself, laughing sweeter than a flower, 'How could I? I've always respected my superiors, like a flowing river...'"

  He looked suspicious, "Believe it and there will be ghosts."

  "I was just... that's a song, I just learned a new tune... don't believe me? Listen..." To dispel his doubts, Ning Meng hummed the new tune she had learned the day before, "Heart crazy sweet love is still burning and baby all my dy kisses I give them to you oh my love is feverish for you"

  She was so emotional, dancing with all her might, and the final move was to present a heart to you... ...fixed type... She swept her eyes and found that the boss's face had slightly cleared up, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, saying, "I didn't cheat you, did I? I was just humming this song earlier... wasn't it very convincing, with great emotional investment?"

  "It's very engaging, I think..." Guan Yin raised an eyebrow and looked at her, his expression a bit tangled...

  She was quite confident in her singing voice, and since she was little, she had been praised by her teachers as a skylark. It seemed that she would finally get the boss's high recognition. She asked expectantly, "What feeling?"

  He thought for a moment, stretched out his hand and compared the two of them, saying slowly, "Can I understand it as... you're showing affection to me?"

  Showing affection? Suddenly the sunny sky turned gloomy, thunder rumbled, and it was heartbreaking... What if she's mistakenly suspected by the HR department of seducing the boss? She'd be finished. I reckon she'll have to pack up and leave tomorrow...

  "No, absolutely not..." She raised two fingers, swearing solemnly.

  He thought for a moment, tilted his head and asked, "Not showing affection, but... sexual harassment?"

  "No, absolutely not..." The voice was firmer than steel.

  "It's nothing... " He nodded and said, "Don't mind it, because in the past I often encountered such situations where female subordinates would suddenly send me flowers, ties, all kinds of food, or sing love songs, dance... So, that's why... I overthought it a bit..."

  Being frequently flattered by female subordinates, or eating tofu vigorously? Oh my god, is this a sign of being a noble single diamond bachelor, with a smooth journey to sell oneself? Ning was so angry that she gritted her teeth and worried that her blood pressure would soar, and her arm couldn't help but swing out.

  My goodness, as a beautiful young woman, being suspected by a single handsome guy like that, wouldn't it be normal for her to mind? But as the saying goes, "beware of the boss's temper", she can only pretend to be calm and composed.

  "It doesn't matter, one morning without a snake bite, ten years fearing the well rope, I also understand this principle... Manager Zhang is so handsome and rich, admirers are temporarily crazy and behave out of line, can be imagined... In short, being greatly troubled is also a victim."

  "Of course it's the victim." He seemed to let out a sigh of relief, crossed his hands and leaned lazily against the gate, saying "Good that you understand, long live understanding."

  She hastily tidied up her blue skirt, and solemnly declared, "My reverence for Director Guan is as pure as snow, there's nothing ambiguous about it..."

  "No ambiguity at all..." His eyes sparkled, and he curled up the corner of his mouth, saying, "Since you're so determined, then forget it. I was going to say something about that night... Should I say something?"

  She was stunned, as still as a wooden chicken.

  She turned her head to look again, and he had already walked out of the conference room, gradually getting farther away. It seemed like there were voices coming from the elevator entrance, but she didn't dare go up and ask what was going on. Oh no, such a good opportunity to accept his apology, maybe even take advantage of it to make some demands, like asking the company to sign a contract or something. Having been so lucky, it would be a waste if this chance slipped away...... Regrettable......

  Ning Meng fiercely pinched his own mouth corner, telling you to shut up, telling you to stop talking nonsense...
