The two receptionists never expected that Assistant Chen would come down to personally escort Su Yaya. His appearance right now was like a slap right on their faces.

Assistant Chen’s polite manners left a good impression on Su Yaya. She smiled at him and followed his lead.

“This way please.” Assistant Chen gestured towards the elevator door.

Su Yaya stood up and was just about to pick up the cake on the table when Assistant Chen said hurriedly, “Let me help you.”

“It’s fine, I can take it myself.” This was the afternoon tea that she bought for Shen Xiuqi, so it would seem more genuine by carrying it herself.

Assistant Chen didn’t say anything else after she insisted on carrying it herself. He proceeded to lead the way towards the president’s exclusive elevator while Su Yaya followed behind him. When she passed by the reception desk, she gave the two receptionists, He Rui and Li Lan, a friendly smile.

However, in He Rui and Li Lan’s view, Su Yaya’s friendly smile was interpreted as a prideful smirk. After gossiping so much about her, their faces were now burning hot, as if their cheeks were slapped red.

Su Yaya on the other hand had no idea what He Rui and Li Lan were thinking, and just simply followed Assistant Chen to the elevator, where the man swiped his card to slide the doors open. Assistant Chen stepped back to allow her to enter first and then followed after her after she got in.

He Rui and Li Lan were stunned when they saw the scene.

Who said President Shen doesn’t remember the online celebrity, Su Yaya, from the one hundred and eighty network? Who else said that the gossip between Su Yaya and President Shen was made up by Su Yaya in order to increase her popularity? Don’t they see that President Shen’s most trustworthy assistant, Assistant Chen, came down to personally escort Su Yaya? Don’t they see that Assistant Chen allowed Su Yaya to ride the exclusive elevator and even allowed her to enter first? Every detail clearly showed how much President Shen cared about Su Yaya!

Oh my god, this was huge news!

After being slapped in the face by reality, He Rui and Li Lan quickly sent the news to the company group chat, “CEO Shen sent Assistant Chen to pick up Su Yaya to the President’s office.” Soon after, this news spread across the company and became a popular gossip topic among women.

Su Yaya followed Assistant Chen up to the 26th floor. He then led her to the President’s office and knocked on the door. They waited a moment before they heard Shen Xiuqi’s approval to enter his office, Assistant Chen opened the door and allowed Su Yaya to enter first. 

“President Shen, Miss Su is here.”

Even after hearing that, Shen Xiuqi continued to look at the documents in front of him. He continued to stare at the document until he finished reading it then, he picked up a pen and signed the paper, and only after he put down his pen, did he look up.

“Send the documents that I just signed.” Shen Xiuqi handed over the papers he had just signed, upon which Assistant Chen quickly accepted the documents and left.

A click could be heard as Assistant Chen closed the office door after he left.

The spacious office now only has Su Yaya and Shen Xiuqi inside with the golden sunlight penetrating the bright glass window from the left.

A ray of sunlight shone upon Shen Xiuqi’s figure as he leaned against his chair behind a huge desk. The man stared at Su Yaya with his deep eyes, appearing tall and intimidating. “Come here, what are doing standing there for?” Shen Xiuqi said in a commanding tone.

Su Yaya quickly walked over while carrying the cake and placed it on his desk. She smiled and said in a fawning tone, “I bought this for your afternoon tea. It tastes pretty good, you should try it.”

Shen Xiuqi’s eyes fell on the cake box and couldn’t help but frown. When did he tell her that he wanted to eat cake?

“That’s what you bought for my afternoon tea?” Shen Xiuqi said coldly.

Failing to sense the disappointment in his voice, Su Yaya took out the chocolate-flavored cake from the box and placed a fork next to the dessert. She held the cake up with both hands, placed it right in front of Shen Xiuqi, and said with a sweet smile, “This cake tastes really delicious. I’ve always savored eating the cakes from this bakery, so I went there earlier to enjoy a couple of cakes. Since you told me to bring something for you while I was there, I thought that you must really like the cakes from that store. So, I bought you a vanilla and chocolate-flavored cake. You should try it.”

Shen Xiuqi’s eyes continued to darken. He told her to buy something for him, so she decided to buy him cakes? Did he say that he wanted to eat cakes? Oh, just because she was eating this dessert at the time he asked her to buy something for him, it meant that he also wanted to eat cakes? What kind of logic was this? Did he say he wanted to eat cakes? 

Su Yaya finally sensed that there was something wrong with Shen Xiuqi. His eyes appeared cold like he wasn’t very happy. She tentatively asked, “What’s the matter?” 

Shen Xiuqi was literally about to burst out in laughter because of how angry he was at her. He humped coldly, “What do you think?” 

When her eyes met his cold gaze, Su Yaya suddenly understood something. She asked weakly, “Do you not like to eating cakes?” 

Shen Xiuqi watched her silently.

Su Yaya thought Shen Xiuqi was a bit weird. The book didn’t mention anything about his dislike for cakes or having any issues with it.

But now wasn’t the right time to worry about this. She blinked her eyes and said, “That’s fine, I bought these cakes for myself. What would you like to eat? I’ll go buy something else for you.”

“There’s no need, eat it yourself.” Shen Xiuqi already lost interest and turned back to his computer to start working again.

Su Yaya pouted and thought: Fine, you don’t have to eat it. These cakes were not cheap! Each piece cost over ten yuan! She then picked up the cake and turned to eat on the sofa nearby.

So delicious!

Su Yaya narrowed her eyes with satisfaction. The corners of her mouth curved up into a smile, revealing two small dimples on the sides of her cheeks, looking both sweet and adorable.

It was soft and delicious, sweet but not greasy, making her want to eat even more.

“One more bite.” Su Yaya scooped another bite of cake into her mouth, and then another. Mhmm, she was fully enjoying the food.

Shen Xiuqi turned his head unintentionally and saw Su Yaya sitting on the couch eating the cake delightfully. She smiled happily and exposed the two dimples on her cheeks. He was touched by how sweet and adorable she was. 

Seeing her earing so happily as if it was really delicious, Shen Xiuqi couldn’t help but question whether that cake was that delicious?

Not knowing that Shen Xiuqi was looking at her, Su Yaya set her heart on eating the cake, which pleased her greatly. She didn’t even realize the cream on the corner of her lip. After she finished a piece of the cake, she curled her lips up into a splendid smile. 

Shen Xiuqi didn’t know what to say after seeing her bright smile along with the cream on the corner of her lip.

Once Su Yaya was done with her chocolate cake, she wanted to continue to eat her vanilla cake. As she reached for it, another hand took the cake from her. 

Following the direction of the hand, Su Yaya met Shen Xiuqi’s enigmatic face. She pouted her moist red lips and said, “My cake.”

He already said he didn’t want to eat it, so why was he taking her cake now?

She appeared adorable even though she was pouting. When he saw that there was some cream on the corner of her mouth, he pointed his finger at her mouth and said with good intentions, “You have a little cream here.”

“Huh?” Su Yaya blankly stared at him as her face immediately flushed red. The corner of her mouth was covered in cream while she was pouting earlier. How unsightly did she look? She needs to quickly wipe it off.

“Here.” Shen Xiuqi passed her a napkin.

“Thank you.” Su Yaya hurriedly reached for it, but Shen Xiuqi took the napkin back.

“You…” Su Yaya looked up at him flabbergasted but before she could react the view in front of her was blocked out by a handsome face pressing down on her. 

A pair of soft and warm lips pressed against her warm lips. His damp tongue swept over the corner of her lips, putting the cream into his mouth. It tasted a little sweet but it wasn’t greasy at all. The taste had ignited his appetite, this wasn’t enough. His tongue wanted to taste more sweetness as he began to trace the shape of her lips. He pried open her mouth and his tongue entered her mouth, hooking his tongue with her tongue and began to tease her.

It was a long French kiss. Shen Xiuqi finally let her go after he kissed Su Yaya deeply and firmly, making her head dizzy at the lack of oxygen. 

Su Yaya leaned on the sofa as she gasped for air. Shen Xiuqi stared deeply at her slightly red lips and then tilted her chin upwards with a finger. He smacked his lips and said, “Sure enough, it’s really delicious.”

Su Yaya quivered when she heard him say that. Was he describing the cream on her lips or her?

***

The author has something to say: Su Yaya was shocked when she heard him say the words, she don’t know if Shen Xiuqi was talking about her being delicious or the cream being delicious?

Shen Xiuqi: Not as good as you!
