Qiao Shu recounted the whole story of the altercation to Yu Qiong. After finishing, he awkwardly rubbed his nose.
He didn’t feel that he was wrong for hitting Tang Chen; it was just that Yu Qiong had been blaming herself for the interception of his resources during this time, and he felt embarrassed about it.
“That’s how it happened,” Qiao Shu said.
Yu Qiong’s expression turned even grimmer. “He harassed you, why didn’t you tell me?”
Qiao Shu hesitated. “…I forgot.”
After the altercation, Qiao Shu worried for a few minutes, mostly feeling angry. Initially, he intended to inform Yu Qiong, but later he went to give pig stomach soup to Gu Chenyan.
After that, he accompanied the busy Gu Chenyan to work every day. Seeing him daily, eating together, sticking closely together, and enjoying their sweet moments so much that he forgot about such matters.
Yu Qiong asked him, “You didn’t tell your husband about this?”
Qiao Shu hesitated. “…No.”
Gu Chenyan was so busy at that time; how could Qiao Shu distract him with such a thing?
Of course, the main reason he didn’t tell was simply because he forgot.
“Cough cough,” Qiao Shu coughed nervously.
Yu Qiong sighed helplessly. “You…”
The car fell silent again.
After a few seconds, Yu Qiong said, “Actually, I’ve been thinking about resigning recently.”
Qiao Shu: “Huh?”
Yu Qiong: “I initially joined this company as a manager because I liked the atmosphere of Big Star Entertainment. But now…”
She smiled.
The company she loved had become chaotic, with the constant suppression from the new boss… Big Star Entertainment was no longer the Big Star Entertainment it used to be.
Qiao Shu: “Sister Qiong…”
Yu Qiong: “Qiao Shu, I shouldn’t be telling you these things. But now that you know about Mr. Tang’s character and the current situation of the company, you’re different from other artists. You have Mr. Gu as your backing, you can choose…”
“To choose something better, something more suitable for you.”
The car headed back towards Big Star Entertainment, finally stopping at the parking lot underneath.
After locking the car, Yu Qiong turned to Qiao Shu and said, “You should go back first.”
Qiao Shu nodded. “Okay.”
Yu Qiong turned and walked towards the elevator.
Qiao Shu watched her go before taking out his car keys to find his car.
He had driven here today.
The underground parking lot was quite large, and Qiao Shu’s sense of direction in places like this had never been very good. It took him a while to find his car.
But when he found the car, he frowned.
“Heh.”
Tang Chen leaned against the Mercedes that Qiao Shu had driven today. With one leg supported, he raised an eyebrow when he saw Qiao Shu approaching.
“You little brat.”
“I finally caught you.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
Qiao Shu frowned even deeper with a shiver running down his spine.
Tang Chen walked towards Qiao Shu. “You’re the only person I’ve ever missed but couldn’t get. I could overlook the fact that you hit me last time. I’ll ask you again, do you want to be with me?”
He reached out to pinch Qiao Shu’s chin but was pushed away by Qiao Shu’s scowling face.
Qiao Shu: “Dream on.”
Tang Chen sneered. “The contract didn’t go through today, did it?”
“Tsk, it’s fine if you disagree. But within the contract period, I can ensure you’ll never get a role.”
“Of course, if you’re with me, I can give you better resources than the fantasy drama today.”
“How about it?”
Qiao Shu’s hand itched.
He wanted to punch the idiot in front of him.
But Tang Chen was taller and stronger than him. Last time, Qiao Shu managed to hit him and run because the sneak attack succeeded. But it wouldn’t be easy to pull off again.
So Qiao Shu restrained himself.
“Not at all!”
Although he didn’t hit him, Qiao Shu clearly didn’t intend to let himself be wronged: “Are you a dog? Going into heat everywhere?”
“Disgusting!”
“Trash!”
“You want to give roles? What can someone like you offer me? In a few days, the company will be bankrupt because of you.”
“Let me tell you, this is sexual harassment. Be careful, I’ll call the police!”
Qiao Shu, who wasn’t used to swearing, angrily used his most offensive words to curse at him.
Tang Chen’s face darkened.
But soon he laughed.
“Fine, suit yourself. Since you’re not afraid and don’t care about the resources I offer, let’s wait and see.”
He lifted his foot to leave, but deliberately stopped when he reached Qiao Shu, smirking as he said, “Don’t come crying to me later, haha.”
He chuckled and walked away.
“Psycho!” Qiao Shu muttered angrily, wrinkling his nose, then angrily unlocked the car, and angrily reversed out of the garage.
He drove angrily all the way.
His little face was sour.
This was Qiao Shu’s first encounter with such a mess, which made him feel angry and disgusted.
How could there be such disgusting people in the world?
Qiao Shu remembered what Yu Qiong had told him.
He frowned and then decided not to worry about the millions in termination fees.
Termination sounded pretty good.
Humph!
Trash boss! Trash company!
Goodbye to you!
Qiao Shu didn’t go home first but drove straight to Gu Chenyan’s company. He had agreed to meet him there in the afternoon.
Heading straight to Gu Company, Qiao Shu’s bad mood gradually dissipated along the way, turning into a sense of grievance.
Pouting, he walked into the company, heading straight for the president’s office, then knocked on the office door.
“Come in.”
The familiar voice made Qiao Shu feel a little better. He pushed the door open. “Husband~”
Gu Chenyan looked up.
Then he frowned. He got up from his seat and walked towards Qiao Shu.
Qiao Shu tilted his head slightly to look up at Gu Chenyan.
After a few seconds, Qiao Shu said with a hint of grievance, “Husband, I want a hug.”
Gu Chenyan approached and embraced Qiao Shu.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Chenyan asked.
“Just hug me,” Qiao Shu replied, feeling a bit down.
“Okay,” Gu Chenyan responded.
After a few seconds, Qiao Shu said, “I also want a kiss.”
Gu Chenyan lowered his head and kissed Qiao Shu’s forehead.
“Not here,” Qiao Shu said, pointing to his lips. “Kiss me here, it will heal me.”
“Husband~” Qiao Shu pleaded.
“Okay,” Gu Chenyan agreed.
Their lips met.
Qiao Shu leaned his head back, tasting Gu Chenyan’s essence, and inhaling his scent.
Their breaths intertwined, blending intimately.
Qiao Shu’s mood improved a little.
Then greedily, he extended his tongue, entwining it with Gu Chenyan’s, holding onto Gu Chenyan’s neck tightly with his hands, tiptoeing to kiss Gu Chenyan passionately.
This kiss lasted for a long time.
Qiao Shu, feeling aggrieved, was incredibly clingy.
When they finally broke apart, Qiao Shu hung onto Gu Chenyan’s embrace, breathing heavily.
Gu Chenyan reached up and caressed his temple.
The two embraced each other, calming the impulses within their bodies.
“Feeling better?” Gu Chenyan asked.
Qiao Shu looked up, blinked, then flashed a sweet smile. “Much better.”
“Mr. Gu, you’re amazing!” Qiao Shu exclaimed. “A kiss from you heals everything!”
Gu Chenyan smiled, but it quickly faded as he asked, “What happened? Did someone bully you?”
“Humph!” Qiao Shu snorted. “Some idiot did, but I handled it! Gave them a piece of my mind.”
Gu Chenyan: “Who was it?”
Qiao Shu: “Ah, let’s not talk about that lunatic. Anyway, I won’t suffer any losses.”
Since they were going to terminate the contract anyway, Qiao Shu didn’t want to dirty Gu Chenyan’s ears with these matters. That kind of person wasn’t worth it!
Humph!
Gu Chenyan: “Qiao Shu.”
Qiao Shu: “Hmm?”
Gu Chenyan: “I want to know.” He ruffled Qiao Shu’s hair. “Who bullied you.”
“You seem upset.”
Qiao Shu rubbed his nose. “It’s really nothing.” He whispered, “I felt upset because I wanted you to comfort me.”
He blushed.
Gurgle…
The sudden sound made Qiao Shu lower his head to his stomach. “…”
Gu Chenyan also looked at his stomach. “Didn’t eat enough for lunch?”
Qiao Shu: “…”
“I’m full.”
He felt a bit embarrassed and puzzled, “I don’t know why I’ve been getting hungry so easily lately.”
Gu Chenyan: “What do you want to eat?”
“I’ll have someone bring it to you.”
Qiao Shu couldn’t help but lick his lips, eagerly saying, “Can I have a spicy hot pot?”
“Um, I also want some cupcakes, bubble tea, and maybe some spicy skewers?”
He greedily said, “I want to eat it all.”
“What should we do, Gu Chenyan?”
Gu Chenyan: “Get it all.”
Qiao Shu jumped for joy, leaping onto Gu Chenyan, then holding Gu Chenyan’s head and planting a big kiss on him.
“Hooray!”
“Brother is amazing!”
All the grievances and anger from earlier were gone.
Gu Chenyan helplessly pinched Qiao Shu’s nose, “Little glutton.”
Qiao Shu: “No way.”
He was now immersed in the joy of being able to eat so much. With a smile on his face, he said, “Not a little glutton, but Mr. Gu’s little glutton.”
“Mr. Gu, would you be willing to feed your little glutton for a lifetime?”
Gu Chenyan smiled, “I do.”
Qiao Shu, being childish, didn’t want to get down and hung onto Gu Chenyan. Gu Chenyan didn’t mind and indulgently supported Qiao Shu’s little butt.
Holding Qiao Shu, he walked to the desk and picked up the phone to call his assistant.
Gu Chenyan: “Get me a portion of spicy hot pot, strawberry mousse, a cup of milk green tea, and a portion of spicy skewers.”
“What would you like in the spicy skewers?” This question was directed at Qiao Shu, who was hanging onto him.
Qiao Shu: “Bean sprouts, spinach, sausage…” He listed a long string of ingredients, then blinked innocently, “Can we also add a garlic fried chicken?”
Gu Chenyan: “Too spicy.”
Qiao Shu: “Brother, just let me have it for today~”
Gu Chenyan compromised, “Okay.”
Qiao Shu, with hopeful eyes, added, “I also want a roujiamo…”
Gu Chenyan: “Can you eat all of that?”
Qiao Shu coquettishly: “Qiao Qiao wants to eat.”
The assistant on the other end of the phone was shocked and excited at the same time… Madam has such a good appetite! And he’s so good at being cute!
President Gu is also so indulgent!
After hanging up the phone, the assistant swiftly went to buy these items. In the office, Qiao Shu sat particularly coyly on Gu Chenyan’s lap.
Gurgle, gurgle…
His stomach kept growling.
Qiao Shu couldn’t hide his hunger, feeling both aggrieved and blushing as he looked at Gu Chenyan.
Gu Chenyan: “Want to snack on something first?”
Qiao Shu happily agreed, “Okay.”
There were snacks prepared for Qiao Shu in the company, so Gu Chenyan didn’t need to call anyone to bring them. Qiao Shu jumped off the lap and happily went to get them himself.
He was really hungry, but more than that, he was craving.
Qiao Shu sat beside Gu Chenyan, nibbling on potato chips, seriously pondering: being angry really consumes energy.
The assistant soon returned.
He knocked on the office door while holding the items, cautiously entering after getting permission.
Then disappointment.
Mr. Gu and the madam were not affectionately sitting together, like sitting on his lap or something!
Poor review!
Assistant: “Does madam want to eat in the office?”
Qiao Shu found it strange, “Yeah.”
The assistant looked at Gu Chenyan awkwardly, but unexpectedly, Gu Chenyan nodded, “Just put it down.”
Assistant: “!!!”
“Alright.”
The assistant arranged Qiao Shu’s things neatly on the small table aside, then left and closed the office door.
Standing outside, he exclaimed softly, “Mr. Gu actually allowed Madam to eat these things in the office!”
One must know, dishes like spicy hot pot and spicy skewers have strong flavors.
“Could this be love?”
In the office,
Qiao Shu happily hopped to the small table, first picking up the cup of milk tea, and taking a big sip with enjoyment. Then he sat on the small sofa nearby, joyfully opening the box containing the spicy hot pot.
As soon as the lid was lifted, the aroma of the spicy hot pot filled the entire office instantly.
Qiao Shu didn’t think it was inappropriate.
He cheerfully unpacked the disposable chopsticks inside and picked up a piece of lotus root from the hot pot.
Qiao Shu: “!!!”
“Delicious!”
Behind the desk,
Gu Chenyan’s nose twitched slightly, his brows furrowed unconsciously. However, upon seeing Qiao Shu’s smiling face as he ate, his furrowed brows instantly relaxed.
Qiao Shu: “Husband, aren’t you eating?”
Gu Chenyan: “I’m not hungry.”
Qiao Shu: “These potatoes and lotus root slices are really delicious. Why don’t you give them a try?”
Qiao Shu walked to Gu Chenyan’s side with the spicy hot pot, picked up a slice of lotus root, and offered it to Gu Chenyan’s mouth.
Gu Chenyan opened his mouth.
Qiao Shu asked eagerly, “How is it?”
Gu Chenyan swallowed the food in his mouth, “Not bad.”
Qiao Shu smiled happily, then returned to the small table to continue eating.
After that, in addition to the aroma of the spicy hot pot, Gu Chenyan also smelled the aroma of spicy skewers and garlic fried chicken. Eventually, these scents blended and permeated the office.
And Qiao Shu would share a bite with Gu Chenyan every time he ate something.
One person working, one person eating.
The office was incredibly harmonious and cozy.
On the computer,
Gu Chenyan typed in Chen Wenyuan’s chat box: “Investigate what happened to madam today.”
Chen Wenyuan: “Yes, sir.”
Gu Chenyan tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, his eyes dark and deep.
His little wife’s temper had always been very good, and he usually didn’t take things to heart. But today, he was angry.
The person who made his little wife angry must have done something outrageous, Gu Chenyan pursed his lips.
Burp~
Gu Chenyan looked up.
Qiao Shu sat slumped on the small sofa, wiping his mouth contentedly. Gu Chenyan looked at the small table in front of Qiao Shu.
Gu Chenyan: “…”
All gone?
He stood up with concern and walked towards Qiao Shu. “Qiao Shu, is it all gone?”
Qiao Shu looked innocent. “Yeah.”
Gu Chenyan: “…”
He helplessly sat down next to Qiao Shu. “Are you full?”
Qiao Shu shook his head. “Not really. This is just right.”
“Um, maybe a little full.”
Gu Chenyan: “You…”
“I’ll give you a massage.”
Qiao Shu didn’t hesitate to lie down on Gu Chenyan’s lap, asking him to massage his belly. But after a while of massaging, he felt something was missing. Then he got up and crawled into Gu Chenyan’s arms.
Qiao Shu: “Massage like this.”
Gu Chenyan: “Okay.”
Qiao Shu comfortably leaned on Gu Chenyan’s shoulder.
The man’s big hands were warm, with just the right amount of strength. Qiao Shu felt extremely comfortable as his belly was being massaged. He was enveloped in the man’s breath as he was being held.
Qiao Shu chuckled with pleasure.
After a while of massaging, Qiao Shu yawned. Soon after, his eyelashes started to tremble continuously.
Finally, his eyelids drooped slowly.
His eyes closed.
Snore~
A small snoring sound came out, and Gu Chenyan lowered his head to look, then chuckled.
He gently pinched Qiao Shu’s small nose. “Little piggy, Qiao Qiao.”
Gu Chenyan held Qiao Shu for a while longer, making sure he was deeply asleep, then carefully carried him to the rest area. He gently laid Qiao Shu on the bed, took off his shoes and socks, removed the knitted vest from Qiao Shu’s body, and covered him with a blanket.
The curtains were drawn shut.
The light in the rest area dimmed.
Gu Chenyan placed a kiss on Qiao Shu’s forehead before leaving the room, carefully closing the door behind him.
While the assistant was tidying up the office, Chen Wenyuan, who received the investigation results, came in.
Chen Wenyuan: “Sir, the investigation results are in.”
Gu Chenyan: “Go ahead.”
Chen Wenyuan: “The newly appointed Vice-President of Big Star Entertainment has been suppressing Mr. Gu’s agent, Yu Qiong. Yu Qiong handles three artists including Mr. Gu, and during this time, they have lost many important resources.”
“But this suppression changed about half a month ago.”
Gu Chenyan: “Hmm?”
Chen Wenyuan: “Half a month ago, Big Star Entertainment suddenly started inexplicably targeting Madam. All resources belonging to Madam were cut off. Today, Madam was supposed to go to the fantasy drama crew to sign the male lead contract, but before Madam arrived, the production team notified his agent that there was no need to come and sign the contract.”
Gu Chenyan’s gaze turned sharp.
Chen Wenyuan continued, “Big Star Entertainment had Jiao Anshi, the top actor, replace Madam’s role.”
“In the investigation, it was found that the production team had favored Jiao Anshi from the beginning. However, Jiao Anshi, as a top actor of Big Star Entertainment, did not need this drama and had declined early on. But this morning, Jiao Anshi suddenly accepted the role and rushed to the crew to sign the contract.”
“Big Star Entertainment used a luxurious endorsement deal to pressure Jiao Anshi into taking on this role.”
The assistant who was tidying up on the side: “!!!”
Damn it!
What a crappy company! How dare they bully their Madam! He’s the person held in high regard by our boss!
He’s the one our boss allows to eat spicy hotpot, spicy skewers, and garlic fried chicken in the office!
He’s the savior of our entire Gu family!
The assistant looked at Gu Chenyan.
Then he was shaken by Gu Chenyan’s gaze, but soon he shouted in his heart.
Boss! Let’s go!
It’s getting chilly! That damn Big Star Entertainment is about to go bankrupt!
Let it go bankrupt—
Gu Chenyan’s face was very dark.
He was not happy! Not happy at all! Extremely unhappy!!!
Even furious!
His little wife had been bullied for so long without him knowing! Bullied so badly! And as his husband, he was completely unaware of it!
He had failed in his duty!
His thin lips pressed tightly together.
Gu Chenyan: “Why did Big Star Entertainment suddenly target Qiao Shu?”
Chen Wenyuan: “I don’t know.”
“We’re still investigating.”
“But it seems to be related to the newly appointed Vice-President of Big Star Entertainment, Mr. Tang Chen.”
Gu Chenyan’s eyelids lowered. “Mr. Tang Chen?”
Chen Wenyuan: “Yes.”
Gu Chenyan: “Have you asked Yu Qiong?”
Chen Wenyuan: “She hasn’t responded yet.”
After the report, Chen Wenyuan put down the investigation report and left the office. The assistant who had been cleaning up the trash and hadn’t left followed closely behind Chen Wenyuan.
Angry Boss Gu is really intimidating.
Assistant: QAQ
But it’s good to be angry! It’s getting chilly!
The office returned to silence.
Gu Chenyan lowered his head to look at the more detailed report in front of him, the pressure around him growing heavier.
He clenched his fists.
Then he turned to look at the lounge beside him.
Qiao Shu slept until half past six.
He groggily sat up from the bed and turned on the room’s light.
The familiar room.
Qiao Shu blinked, then fully awakened, realizing he was in the lounge next to Gu Chenyan’s office.
Click
Qiao Shu looked up.
Gu Chenyan was holding the door handle, pushing the door open. “Awake?”
Seeing Gu Chenyan, Qiao Shu couldn’t help but smile. “Yeah, I’m awake.”
“What time is it?”
Gu Chenyan: “It’s half past six.”
Qiao Shu: “It’s time for dinner.”
Gu Chenyan: “…”
“Are you still hungry?”
Qiao Shu was puzzled: “Of course, I can still eat. It’s been a while.”
He got up from the bed and started getting dressed.
Gu Chenyan found Qiao Shu’s socks and sat on the bed, putting them on for Qiao Shu while he was putting on his vest.
He also rang the bell.
Ding
Hearing the sound, Qiao Shu smiled.
He even deliberately kicked his legs, making the bell ring continuously.
Qiao Shu: “Do you like the sound?”
Gu Chenyan: “Hmm.”
With his clothes on, Qiao Shu leaned over and hugged Gu Chenyan, kissing him.
Originally, they were planning to have dinner at home, but just as they were about to leave the building, Qiao Shu’s stomach rumbled again.
So Gu Chenyan took Qiao Shu to a nearby private restaurant instead.
Qiao Shu ordered a lot of dishes.
Gu Chenyan sat opposite, slightly frowning as he worriedly asked, “Qiao Shu.”
Qiao Shu: “Hmm?”
Gu Chenyan: “Have you been feeling unwell lately?”
“Huh?” Qiao Shu thought for a moment and said, “Not really.”
Gu Chenyan: “You’ve been eating a lot lately, especially today.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
His face flushed.
He thought about the past few days.
It seemed like his appetite had been increasing gradually from some unknown day.
But it seemed okay?
Just three bowls of rice for a meal, and he also ate a little more vegetables. He used to eat this much when he was growing up, sometimes even more.
So Qiao Shu waved his hand confidently, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. Maybe I’m just growing taller again.”
He smirked, “I didn’t expect I could still grow taller. But anything is possible before the age of 24.”
“Gu Chenyan, how much do you think I’ll grow this time? One centimeter? Two centimeters?”
The dishes arrived.
Qiao Shu immediately forgot about the previous topic, excitedly picking up his chopsticks and diving into the delicious food in front of him.
Gu Chenyan watched Qiao Shu.
Finally, he shook his head with a smile: Maybe he really is growing taller. He’ll find some time to ask Fang Zhouyou about it.
At Qiao Shu’s urging, Gu Chenyan picked up his chopsticks and placed a spare rib into Qiao Shu’s bowl before starting his meal.
