The first feeling I got from that girl was pure innocence, but after looking at her closely, I realized she was naturally beautiful.
Even without any deliberate makeup, the girl's natural, fresh vibe just radiated out of her.
I couldn't help but look at her a few more times, thinking, "Damn it, such a great girl, and that son of a gun Zhang Zhiyuan probably got to her too."
Seeing me staring at her without saying anything, the girl continued, "My name is Fang Xin Yi. Are you from Xingchang Technology?"
That snapped me out of it. I quickly said, "Yes, Mr. Zhang asked me to come pick you up."
I started helping the girl with her luggage. You could tell she had just come back from overseas.
I thought to myself, "Is Zhang Zhiyuan really that powerful? Can he even get students from abroad?"
Even though our company had some business dealings with foreign countries, I knew very well that Zhang Zhiyuan hadn't been abroad recently.
So, how he knew this girl was still a question in my mind.
When we got to the parking lot, I put the girl's luggage in the car and drove towards the company.
Because I didn't know this girl very well, I didn't say much on the way.
And since she would be my superior in the future, I was even more careful about what I said.
Every woman has a sharp mind, and I was afraid of saying the wrong thing and making her unhappy.
Then my future work would be difficult.
At least I still wasn't clear on what her relationship with the boss was.
Of course, this kind of private matter wasn't something I could just ask about.
Soon, I took her to the company. When she got out of the car, I could still smell a faint fragrance inside.
Maybe that was the natural scent of a young girl!
Then I hurried to the cafeteria and grabbed a quick bite to eat.
Just as I walked out of the cafeteria, my phone suddenly rang.
I was momentarily excited, thinking it was my wife calling.
But when I picked it up, I saw it was Gu Xiaofei.
Thinking about this woman made my blood boil. If she hadn't called in the middle of the night yesterday, my wife wouldn't be giving me the silent treatment.
Actually, deep down, I felt like my wife was starting to not trust me anymore.
But this woman didn't call unless she wanted something. If she was calling me, there must be a reason.
Having no choice, I answered the phone.
Gu Xiaofei started by trying to flatter me, saying, "What's wrong? It's only been two days, and you've already forgotten about me?"
Her frequent calls confirmed to me that this woman was trying to seduce me.
It seemed like the boss hadn't given me a good assignment at all. If I got involved with this woman, I might never be able to shake her off.
"Spit it out. What do you want?" My tone was very cold because at this point, I decided to confront Gu Xiaofei.
"Whoa, look how angry you are! Is that really necessary?" Gu Xiaofei's voice sounded like a woman being coy.
I wasn't falling for that anymore. I said to Gu Xiaofei, "If you don't have anything important to say, I'm going to hang up."
Gu Xiaofei thought for a moment and said, "Wait, don't hang up yet. There's something I want to tell you."
Actually, I wasn't very interested in what Gu Xiaofei had to say because I knew she wouldn't have any good news for me.
But since she had specifically called to tell me these things, I figured I'd listen to what it was all about.
I didn't say anything, but Gu Xiaofei said, "Zhao Jian, if you don't believe Lu Wan is a loose woman, then I'll show you the proof today."
Even though Gu Xiaofei was beautiful, this woman had a natural ruthlessness about her. I knew that if she said that, she must have some evidence.
Actually, I really wanted to know if my wife had cheated or not. I couldn't believe that after me being so devoted to her, she would still think about other men.
Besides, I was a handsome guy myself, and everything about me was pretty good.
So, I naturally assumed that my wife was still very happy being with me.
"What proof are you talking about?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Your wife is going to secretly meet a random guy today, and the room has already been booked."
Hearing Gu Xiaofei say that, I really wanted to curse, but after thinking about it, I held back.
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't have any proof. You need to know that ruining my wife's reputation is a very bad thing to do." Suddenly, I started to warn Gu Xiaofei.
Gu Xiaofei gave a cold laugh and said, "Zhao Jian, you really underestimate me. Do you think Gu Xiaofei is the kind of person who makes things up out of thin air?"
I thought about it. Gu Xiaofei had explained everything so clearly. Maybe she really had caught some solid evidence.
Even though I didn't believe my wife was cheating, her recent reactions had been too unusual. For example, the sound of panting when I called her – that sound would only happen under certain circumstances.
Also, I didn't know when my wife had bought that white pair of underwear. Why would she suddenly change her underwear for no reason?
Actually, all the signs pointed to my wife cheating, but I just wasn't willing to admit that reality.
Undeniably, all of this was because I loved my wife too much.
Hearing that I wasn't saying anything, Gu Xiaofei continued, "If you want to see the proof, you can come to my place today, and I will definitely let you see everything clearly."
"Okay, it's a deal."
I had originally planned not to go to Gu Xiaofei's place anymore, but since she had said that, then I absolutely had to go.
So, I went back to the general manager's secretary's office, wanting to ask Liu Jing for leave.
To my disappointment, the things on the desk had all been moved away, leaving it empty.
It seemed Liu Jing had left in the morning.
Now I was in a state of being unsupervised.
If I wanted to ask for leave, I could only go to the boss himself.
I thought about it and decided to go ahead and ask the boss.
Because I had a million reasons to ask the boss for leave.
I pushed open the door to the general manager's office and only then realized that Fang Xin Yi was also there.
At this time, Fang Xin Yi and the boss were talking, and they seemed quite close.
No wonder he even dumped a top-quality woman like Gu Xiaofei. It turned out he had found a pure college girl.
I sighed inwardly. The boss's life was truly colorful.
Seeing me push open the door and come in, Zhang Zhiyuan looked a bit surprised.
"Little Zhao, what brings you here?"
"Mr. Zhang, I have some things to take care of this afternoon, and I'd like to ask for leave."
Normally, the boss would have easily agreed to my request, but today he seemed a bit hesitant.
"Little Zhao, there are quite a few things going on today. Can you possibly ask for leave another day?"
It looked like the boss was finding it a bit difficult for me to take leave.
I knew that the boss's requests couldn't be refused, otherwise I could forget about keeping this job.
Zhang Zhiyuan continued, "You've come at the right time. Let me introduce you. This is Miss Fang Xin Yi. She just graduated from Scott University in the United States and is now my secretary, as well as your direct supervisor."
At this point, Fang Xin Yi extended her slender hand to me in a friendly gesture.
When I held her soft, delicate hand, the feeling was truly wonderful.
Zhang Zhiyuan continued, "Little Zhao, today is the new leader's first day, and there are some tasks that require your help, so things are quite busy at the company."
I understood that my request for leave was definitely not going to happen.
But I suddenly thought of Gu Xiaofei. Maybe this was a good opportunity.
I said to Zhang Zhiyuan, "But Sister Xiaofei called me and asked me to go over there today."
Hearing me say that, Zhang Zhiyuan looked a bit surprised, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Since Sister Xiaofei asked you to go, then go ahead. After all, it's also company business."
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Xiaofei was mentioned, the boss immediately gave me the green light. I was also very curious as to why he was so eager for me to get involved with Gu Xiaofei. Could there be some chain of benefits involved?
I remembered that slip of the tongue from Liu Jing and still felt like something was strange.
The moment I turned to leave the office, I was still observing Fang Xin Yi. That girl was looking at me with a very surprised expression.
After leaving the boss's office, I called Gu Xiaofei.
"Sister Xiaofei, where are you now? I'll be right over."
"Of course I'm at home. Just come on over."
I hung up the phone and, like a starving tiger, rushed towards Gu Xiaofei's house.
Even though my relationship with Gu Xiaofei was a bit unclear, since things had already reached this point, there was no turning back for me.
The moment Gu Xiaofei opened the door, I suddenly felt a bit surprised.
Gu Xiaofei today was dressed in a very sexy outfit.
I saw her wearing a pink dress with a slit in the chest, which seemed to be the latest style this year.
This revealed her faintly visible breasts right in front of me.
I could immediately feel that Gu Xiaofei's breasts were very firm, as if strongly attracting me to reach out and touch them.
Such clothes would only appear at fashion shows. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to wear them out at all.
Only the daughters of wealthy families would wear such clothes on formal occasions. Ordinary people wouldn't buy them at all.
From Mr. Zhang, I knew that Gu Xiaofei was a college student from a poor background, so I didn't think she would buy such clothes.
You had to know that even though such clothes looked inconspicuous, they were the latest design and definitely had a high price tag.
The current Gu Xiaofei didn't have the means to buy such clothes.
Even though I felt surprised, I didn't show it on my face.
My purpose in coming today was to find out if my wife had really cheated.
I wanted to know where the solid proof Gu Xiaofei had mentioned was.
I sat down on the sofa in the living room, frowned slightly, and asked, "Sister Xiaofei, where is the proof you mentioned?"
But Gu Xiaofei pounced on me like a kitten and asked, "Zhao Jian, do I look beautiful today?"
An alluring fragrance entered my nose, and I immediately felt my whole body start to heat up.
Maybe this was just a man's natural instinctual impulse that no one could stop.
Even though I was still relatively loyal to my wife, I knew in my heart that if Gu Xiaofei kept seducing me like this, something would happen sooner or later.
I was afraid my wife would find out about it, so I still pushed Gu Xiaofei away.
Gu Xiaofei clearly sensed my coldness and asked, "What's wrong? Are you still missing that charming wife of yours at home?"
I pretended to be a righteous man and said to Gu Xiaofei, "I've told you, there's only my wife in my heart."
Gu Xiaofei suddenly laughed and said, "Zhao Jian, you're really something else. If Lu Wan knew you were this devoted to her, what would she think?"
These words really moved me because my feelings for my wife were truly deep.
