Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Not only was the Fire Dragon carrying a girl in his arms, but he also had an indulgent expression!
Was this a scene from a romance drama featuring a domineering CEO and a lovely employee?
Although the employees in the CEO’s office were all graduates from prestigious schools, they were young, and their minds were at their most active.
From a distance, Jin Nian, with her back turned to the CEO’s office, couldn’t see that a group of people was peeking and watching them hugging.
On the other hand, Lu An could see the curious employees from the CEO’s office, but he remained calm, pretending not to notice them. Or perhaps, he had no intention of hiding his relationship with Jin Nian.
Hugging his wife was perfectly reasonable and legal, and there was no need to conceal it.
It was just a simple hug, and there was no harm in letting others see it.
At this moment, Assistant Song Wenting walked to the CEO’s office door. “It’s time to go home. Don’t keep crowding here.”
Someone was curious and asked Song Wenting in a hushed tone, “Assistant Song, who is the person the CEO is carrying?”
Song Wenting pushed up his frameless glasses. “What do you think?”
“Could it be… the legendary CEO’s wife?”
Song Wenting raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying, but everyone had already figured it out.
“I’ve seen this silhouette before. She visited CEO Lu’s office a couple of days ago!”
“I’ve seen her too!”
“Is she from the organization downstairs?”
“Is it Jin Nian?”
“It’s Jin Nian. I’ve even chatted with her!”
Song Wenting cleared her throat and urged them to keep their voices down.
Moreover, Lu An hadn’t mentioned her identity at all. Everyone had figured it out themselves.
Jin Nian noticed the discussions behind her but couldn’t turn around to see what was happening because Lu An was holding her, rendering her unable to move and see what was going on behind her.
“Is someone here?”
“No,” Lu An replied calmly, with no change in his expression.
Lu An gently rubbed Jin Nian’s head, and a tender look filled his eyes. “What would you like to eat tonight? I’ll make it for you.”
Lu An’s soothing tone successfully calmed Jin Nian. She blurted out, “I want to eat fish.”
“Alright,” Lu An smiled gently.
It was well past the end of the workday, and Jin Nian had delayed leaving for half the day. She needed to take some snacks and work tasks home to handle. She dawdled for a while, estimating that her colleagues in the office downstairs had probably gone home. Only then did she discreetly enter the agency’s entrance.
However, as soon as she entered, she encountered a female colleague who was working overtime.
The colleague playfully blinked at Jin Nian. “Madam CEO!”
Jin Nian touched her flushed cheeks.
Jin Nian continued walking into the agency and met other colleagues.
“Jin Nian, you’ve been so secretive!”
“Madam CEO! Don’t forget about us when you have any perks!”
“So, Sister Nian is CEO Lu’s wife!”
“Sister Nian, you’re amazing!”
Everyone meant well, and they were just surprised by Jin Nian’s identity, teasing her with a few remarks.
Jin Nian felt this and stopped being bashful. She walked directly to her desk and picked up her bag. “I’ll distribute wedding candies to everyone another day!”
“That’s great!”
“We’ll be waiting for your candies!”
“Congratulations on your marriage!”
Jin Nian was about to leave when she was called back to her office by her boss, Lin Qianyu.
Lin Qianyu still had a leadership demeanor with his hands behind his back when he was outside. However, when he shared the same office with Jin Nian, his expression became ingratiating. He squeezed Jin Nian’s shoulders and said, “Jin Nian, if there were any misunderstandings in the past, please forgive me. After all, it’s all part of work. We’ve always been focused on the task, not the person.”
Regardless of her status, Jin Nian’s attitude toward Lin Qianyu had consistently been neither humble nor overbearing. “I can be quite petty, and I’m not some lord. Here’s the deal. I’ll fire you tomorrow, and I’ll take your seat.”
Lin Qianyu stopped massaging her shoulders. “We’re friends, aren’t we?”
“Hmph, it’s the end of the workday today. We’ll argue tomorrow.” Jin Nian smiled and walked away.
On the first day, the news that Jin Nian was the CEO’s wife spread throughout Whale.
The most surprised person was Xia Yu, who often had lunch with Jin Nian.
Yesterday, Xia Yu had accidentally seen the office gossip after work and had been so shocked that her jaw nearly hit the floor.
Xia Yu was shaken!
Early the next morning, when Xia Yu saw Jin Nian in the corridor, she stood frozen in place.
She looked at Jin Nian with an expression as if she were seeing a mythical creature. Even her thick glasses couldn’t hide the astonishment in her eyes.
With every step Jin Nian took toward Xia Yu, Xia Yu took a step back.
This repeated for several rounds until Jin Nian said, “Xia Yu.”
“Ah!” Xia Yu screamed excitedly.
Jin Nian quickly rushed forward to cover Xia Yu’s mouth, which was wide open in a scream. “Keep your voice down. You don’t need to be this excited, do you?” “You, you’re the legendary CEO’s Madam!” Xia Yu said weakly.
Jin Nian nodded guiltily..
