Snake spent Mondays to Fridays at school with Gu Mengmeng, and so had to spend the weekends at MonSir corporation.
After all, there were many documents which required his personal signature before they could be filed, and numerous strategies which needed his approval before they could be launched.
So after breakfast, Snake brought Gu Mengmeng into the changing room and let her pick his suit for the day.
A whole range of suits were arranged neatly on a clothes rack, from the darkest to the lightest tones—the lightest one of which was a pale gray.
Hmm, there used to be a few white suits, but since Gu Mengmeng mocked him for looking like a handsome Kentucky in white, Snake had thrown away all his white suits.
To be honest, Gu Mengmeng did not know much about western suits other than the fact that they looked “dashing”. She had watched those red carpet events at award ceremonies every year, but couldn’t differentiate between the suits worn by the male celebrities apart from the color.
So now that Snake was asking her to pick one out for him, Gu Mengmeng was feeling rather panicky.
After all, they had been together for only a short time, and she didn’t really know his likes and dislikes.
What if she chose wrongly…
Gu Mengmeng peeked at Snake out of the corners of her eyes. Snake seemed to understand her unease and embraced her gently from behind. He whispered by her ear. “Just pick something you think looks nice, and I will try it on for you. As long as you like it, I will also like it.”
Gu Mengmeng’s heart tightened as she shrank slightly.
She then pointed at a khaki-colored, three-buttoned western suit. Taking it down, she used the excuse of needing to measure the suit against Snake’s body to squirm out of his arms.
Snake knew she was not used to being hugged and so didn’t force it. He just watched her calmly as she sized him up.
Gu Mengmeng replaced the khaki-colored suit and took out another one in a deep coffee shade. Comparing the two, she felt that this color looked somewhat better and so discreetly stole a look at Snake’s face, hoping to see if he liked it.
Snake grinned at her affectionately. “Do you like this? I will try it on for you to see.”
With that, Snake started undoing his own buttons.
Gu Mengmeng was shocked. “Don’t move!”
Snake immediately stopped moving like someone had pressed the pause button on him. He then looked steadily at Gu Mengmeng.
He waited for her to look at him before smiling. “What? Does Twomeng wish to personally help me take off my clothes?”
Gu Mengmeng’s face turned even redder. She shook her head vigorously. “No no. I… I will place this outfit here for you first… then I will go out and you can take your time to change…”
With that, Gu Mengmeng turned to run away.
She had just taken one step when Snake grabbed her by the wrist. With just a slight tug, she fell into his embrace.
Snake looked down at her with a smile. “You are my ‘personal’ assistant. Isn’t getting my suit ready part of your job? Why are you running away? Mmm?”
Getting his suit ready… did that include helping him take off his clothes and putting it on?
Gu Mengmeng wanted to retort, but she knew her own place. With that outrageously unfair and one-sided contract, she was completely at Snake’s mercy.
Pouting, Gu Mengmeng raise her head rather pathetically. “Didn’t you say I could take advantage of some special workplace favors…”
“Mmm? So you wish to give me some special favor now?” Snake’s smile widened.
