Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Boss, Has Anyone Ever Told You That You’re Really Handsome

Actually, it’s not that Shen Yi walked without making a sound, it’s just that Song Qiao was lost in thought and didn’t hear his footsteps!

Shen Yi did not call her out on it, and with a glance and his face still wearing a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, he asked, "You’re in such a hurry, where are you planning to go? Did something happen at home?"

When Song Qiao heard what Shen Yi said, her face took on an embarrassed tint, considering she had just left work and got caught by the big Boss himself—somewhat at a loss for words!

After thinking it through, in the end, all she could say was, "I have some matters to take care of. I just asked An’an to help me request leave..." Saying this, Song Qiao stared at Shen Yi with wide eyes, pursed her lips, and spoke up, "Boss, you’re not going to deny my leave, are you?"

Seeing Song Qiao like this, as if he had bullied her, Shen Yi couldn’t help but find it funny. He coughed into his fist held up to his lips, pretending to be serious, "What if I don’t approve your leave?"

Song Qiao, "..."

Shen Yi looked at Song Qiao’s deflated little face, truly feeling as if he had bullied her, and couldn’t help but laugh out loud as he reached out and ruffled her hair, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Alright, alright, I’ve approved your leave. Hurry up and get your business sorted, and come back to work early. We’ve got a newcomer recently who needs you to take charge!"

Song Qiao smiled and nodded her head, "I’ll handle it as quickly as possible!"

Just at that moment, the elevator arrived, and Song Qiao nodded in thanks to Shen Yi before stepping in. Suddenly she seemed to remember something, and just as the elevator doors were about to close, she held them open with her hand. Poking her head out, her face beamed with a starry smile as she exclaimed, "Boss, have you ever been told just how handsome you really are?!"

Shen Yi, "..."

By the time he recovered, the elevator doors had already closed!

The man watched the tightly shut elevator doors, and couldn’t help but laugh out loud, looking once more at the doors before turning on his heel towards another office!

...

It wasn’t until Song Qiao reached the company lobby that she realized she had no idea where Lu Jingchen lived!

Maybe because of the magazine incident, even standing in the lobby, Song Qiao could feel the receptionists’ pointing and whispering, and with her sharp ears, she even heard some quiet discussions behind her back!

Feeling an inexplicable chill, Song Qiao didn’t dwell on it and walked straight out of the company!

Pulling out her phone from her bag, she scanned the few numbers saved in her contacts, and immediately spotted the number labeled ’Lu Jingchen’!

After a moment’s hesitation, she called the number anyway!

Lu Jingchen was in the middle of a meeting when the call came, and he glanced down at the caller ID on his phone, gestured to pause the meeting, and slid his finger to answer, holding the phone to his ear as if he was not at all surprised by the call!

Grasping the phone, Song Qiao felt a little nervous. After a few rings, she heard a man’s voice, distant yet not lacking in warmth, "Song Qiao?"

Perhaps because she was too nervous, Song Qiao could feel her palms starting to sweat. She blurted out without thinking, "How did you know it was me?"

The man arched an eyebrow, his face unfazed, but with a hint of amusement in his eyes, he reminded, "We exchanged numbers yesterday!"
