Xie Linchuan gently pushed open the hidden door.
As luck would have it, he bumped right into Shen Tianxing, who was emerging naked from the bathroom.
In that instant, Shen Tianxing was so embarrassed she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself on the spot!
Her brain suddenly short-circuited, leaving her unsure whether to cover her upper body or lower body.
Xie Linchuan, on the other hand, remained completely calm. Had this happened two days ago, he would have been shy too.
But over the past two days, everything that could happen had happened, and everything that could be seen had been seen.
Not only seen, but also tasted—and not just once, but many times!
“Since you’re awake, get dressed and come out. I’ll be waiting for you outside!”
After saying this, Xie Linchuan turned and returned to his office.
Sitting back at his desk, Xie Linchuan recalled Shen Tianxing’s shy demeanor from earlier—her slightly flushed cheeks were simply too adorable!
After changing her clothes, Shen Tianxing slowly walked out. The moment her eyes met Xie Linchuan’s, her face turned red again.
Xie Linchuan: So adorable!
“Come here!” Xie Linchuan gently beckoned with his hand.
Shen Tianxing slowly walked over to Xie Linchuan, who took her hand in his.
He rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb.
“What’s wrong? Haven’t I seen it all already? Why are you still shy?”
“Xie Linchuan, are you making fun of me?” Shen Tianxing felt her neck grow warm.
Xie Linchuan pulled her into his arms and gently held her waist.
“How could I bear to make fun of you? I just think you’re adorable!”
Shen Tianxing: Wait!!! He said I’m adorable! Hehe~!~! He praised me!!
She turned and wrapped her arms around Xie Linchuan’s neck, about to ask him to praise her again.
But a sudden knock on the door startled her, and she immediately stood up from his lap.
Watching Shen Tianxing quickly retreat to the sofa with her well-behaved demeanor, he laughed inwardly, though his expression remained unchanged.
“Enter!”
The marketing manager entered with several assistants, pushing two clothing racks.
Xie Linchuan prepared to resume work and instructed the marketing manager:
“Have the clothes that were brought up tried on by Miss Shen. Pack all the well-fitting ones and send them to the Shen residence.”
“Oh, and one more thing—select a formal gown and find a stylist. Miss Shen has an important family banquet to attend tonight!”
Marketing manager: No way! Did I hear that right? Boss, you’re being so considerate for a woman who’s about to get married???
“Understood, President Xie. Miss Shen, please follow me to the VIP room next door to try on the clothes.”
“No need to go next door. She can try them on in the inner room.”
Xie Linchuan’s words stunned everyone. Seeing their hesitation, he frowned and asked coldly:
“Is there a problem?”
“None! It’s just, Boss… your room…” The marketing manager hesitated.
“Never mind, I’ll just go next door!” Shen Tianxing stood up to leave.
“Stop. Did I say you could leave? Try them on here. I need to go to the finance department to handle some matters anyway!”
Finance department!
Finance department!
Shen Tianxing suddenly remembered something.
She hurried over to Xie Linchuan’s desk and, seeing a pile of project documents, began flipping through them.
Marketing manager: Is this woman crazy? How dare she touch the boss’s things!
Shen Tianxing found a proposal titled “Hekou Project” among the stack of documents.This project, like the Ping Xi Lan Chu project from noon, is one that Fu Jinyan is closely monitoring.
Instantly, she recalled that in her previous life, Fu Jinyan had bribed a key figure in Xie Linchuan’s finance department—someone named Xue Lanyi, if she remembered correctly!
Back then, Fu Jinyan had Shen Tianxing coax Xie Linchuan into taking on this project, only for it to turn into an unfinished, abandoned venture. Xue Lanyi then tampered with the finances, causing Xie Linchuan to suffer massive losses.
“What’s wrong?” Xie Linchuan suddenly looked at Shen Tianxing.
Shen Tianxing glanced back at the clothes on the rack. She picked out a black strapless gown and a pair of fully crystal-encrusted high heels, pairing them with a small Chanel clutch.
“Keep this set. Send the rest back.”
“Deliver the remaining items to the Shen residence,” Xie Linchuan added.
“No need. Let’s deal with it after tomorrow.”
Xie Linchuan didn’t argue with Shen Tianxing. He simply waved his hand, and the staff promptly cleared everything away.
“Guan Wei!” Xie Linchuan suddenly called out to the marketing manager.
“Yes, President Xie?” Guan Wei turned to him with an overly sweet smile.
Shen Tianxing internally gagged. No wonder she was so harsh with me earlier—her eyes are practically glued to the boss. Looks like she’s aiming for a promotion, huh!
“Prepare two limited-edition bags from this year for my sister.”
“Of course, right away. You’re so good to your sister, President Xie!” Guan Wei’s voice took on a sudden, syrupy tone when speaking to Xie Linchuan.
Shen Tianxing shuddered slightly. Just kill me now.
She gave an imperceptible shiver and shot a subtle eye-roll in Xie Linchuan’s direction.
“You may leave.” Xie Linchuan remained his usual icy self, treating everyone with the same detached demeanor.
Once the woman was gone, Shen Tianxing didn’t hold back.
“She’s into you. Seems the marketing position isn’t high enough for her—she wants to be Mrs. Xie!”
Xie Linchuan looked at Shen Tianxing. This girl is actually jealous. How amusing.
“Do you have something to say to me?” He pointed at the project proposal in Shen Tianxing’s hand.
“Ah! Yes!” Shen Tianxing had nearly forgotten the main issue.
She suddenly turned serious, fixing her gaze on Xie Linchuan and asking with visible tension, “Is there someone named Xue Lanyi in your finance department?”
“Yes, there is. Why do you ask?” Xie Linchuan’s expression shifted to one of surprise.
