Chapter 505: You Need Someone to Comfort You
Sheng Bowen sighed and shook his head. “Don’t blame me for not reminding you of this by then.”
“Third Brother, I found that you have improved a lot after you are married. This is a good thing, thanks to Xiao Ran.”
Nevertheless, Grandpa Sheng was happy although the brothers were in disagreement. At least Third Brother was thinking about Huang Yao instead of colluding with other people. Regarding the relationship between Third Brother and Sheng Xiao, Grandpa Sheng had investigated and found no evidence of them meeting in private.
“Grandpa, don’t get upset by Third Brother’s stubbornness. You know he is always like this.”
“How can I not know? Let’s eat.” Grandpa Sheng nodded cheerfully.
Usually, Gu Ziling would take the chance to make a few sarcastic remarks. But now that she was in a worrying position in the Sheng family, she had to hold her anger in even if she did not want to.
“Right, Xiao Ran, you should report to work as soon as possible to familiarize with the business. I will be at ease when you can help Third Brother.”
“Okay, Grandpa.”
Gu Ziling felt that she was a total outsider when witnessing the whole thing. The Gu family was just facing a small problem and Grandpa Sheng was already ignoring her. And what was even more ridiculous was that Sheng Kai, a man who could not produce a child, dared to ignore her.
If it was not because of her bond with him for the past six months, she would reveal his secrets long ago instead of letting him domineer.
But still, it was not the time to use her ace card now. If the situation in the Gu family worsened, she would use it to protect her place in the family, or to gain help for the Gu family.
For this reason, Gu Ziling asked the kitchen to prepare some supper for her to bring to the office.
Since the charity dinner, Sheng Kai had been staying in the office. It was not a solution after all.
When Gu Ziling left Sheng Mansion, Sheng Bowen held Hu Ran’s hand and said, “I knew that Second Brother’s secretary is seducing him because she knows he is not happy now. And Second Brother does not reject her. If Second Sister-in-law sees anything in the office, I bet the situation will become very ugly.”
Hu Ran was surprised and looked at Sheng Bowen’s side face. “Are all the men in the Sheng family so heartless?”
“You have wronged the men in the Sheng family. Eighth Brother is a regular loyal man.”
“What about you?”
Third Brother was shocked, then he took Hu Ran’s hands. “It is true that I had no experience in love before I married you. And I haven’t had any close contact with a girl before. Because I know I cannot decide on my marriage. That is why I cannot understand why Eighth Brother could give up everything for Qiqi. Until now, I still don’t know what care is, or what love is. But I am willing to give it a try with you. Are you willing to accept me, who does not know anything?”
Hu Ran laughed at his honesty. “Alright, Mr. Idiot. We can take our time. At least we don’t hate each other as a start, do we?”
Sheng Bowen laughed. “It’s late. Let’s go to bed.”
Speaking of it, the two were only sleeping on the same bed. And their most intimate contact was a hug. They had not even kissed.
However, like Third Brother said, feelings could not be rushed. They did not want to act recklessly. They did not want to own each other’s bodies before they were sure of their feelings. What if they wanted a divorce in the future? That would make things complicated.
…
It was getting late, and the cold winds blew stronger.
Gu Ziling’s car stopped at the entrance of Huang Yao. Seeing the lights in the office of the CEO still on, she took a deep breath. She kept on comforting herself. It was just an apology. She could bear it for the sake of her future.
So, holding the food, she went into the elevator which brought her straight to Sheng Kai’s office. At that moment, the secretary was with him, serving food and drinks.
When Gu Ziling saw no one to inform her arrival, she pushed open the door and walked into the office. When she saw Sheng Kai’s secretary standing close beside him with all the variety of food, she understood instantly.
“Mistress…” The secretary panicked and shouted.
“You didn’t come home for days. I was worried that you might be hungry or feel cold, so I came. But it is unnecessary it seems.” Gu Ziling looked at Sheng Kai. Sounding sarcastic, she said, “You secretary has such a nice curvy body and she will not be interested in your brother, I suppose. So, you can rest assured about that, can’t you?”
Sheng Kai stopped his work and frowned at Gu Ziling.
“Where are you going?”
“I know you don’t want to see me. We have made an agreement back then. Once I give birth to your child, I will leave the Sheng family for good. Maybe I am too stupid to fall for you. But apparently, you don’t seem to think the same way.” Gu Ziling put down the food in her hands and turned around. Before she left, she reminded Sheng Kai, “I don’t care if you mess around. But remember to maintain hygiene and use contraception. Although I am not as good as I seem to be before, the Sheng family is not a family anyone can enter.”
Having said that, Gu Ziling left.
Sheng Kai’s face stiffened, but he did not run to her.
“CEO, Mistress seems to have misunderstood.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Sheng Kai did not run to Gu Ziling. He was the rightful CEO of Huang Yao. But what about his wife? She was still thinking about Zhongteng, thinking about Sheng Xiao. And she even donated the ring he gave her without the blink of an eye.
“Then you should get some rest now.” The secretary smirked.
“You can go now. I don’t need you here.”
The secretary took the chance and hugged Sheng Kai. She leaned her soft body against her. “CEO, do you know how much I like you? I know it is not easy to join the Sheng family. And I don’t want to either. I just want to be with you like now.”
“I’m married.” Sheng Kai emphasized. “Although I am laughed at by the people, I am still married.”
“But you need someone to comfort you.”
Sheng Kai did not push away the secretary. Because he was still hungry, especially when he saw her coming into the office and not apologizing to him. Moreover, she acted arrogantly. He was very angry. So, he lifted the secretary and put her on his lap. Then, ignoring the consequences, he vented his anger. Soon, the two were locked in a fierce battle in the office.
He was a dignified CEO. Would he lack women?
Must he care only about Gu Ziling?
There was no such need! He could hold a secretary and have sex anytime he wanted.
