Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 174 Lover
Xiao Shen, dressed in black, exuded an aura of power. Perhaps because he was too eye-catching, the entire room fell silent, everyone staring at this big shot who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Su Ying was completely stunned, and she still didn't react even when Xiao Shen was right in front of her.

"Assistant Su, Assistant Su..." Her colleague whispered and tugged at her, trying to prompt her.

The man smirked, bent down to pick up the phone, and asked, "Don't you want it anymore?"

A clear and familiar male voice pulled her back to reality, shattering her last hope. Yes, it was Xiao Shen. He had come to Haicheng!
If Su Ying looked in the mirror, she would see how astonished she looked. It took her a while to find her voice.

"Thank you!"

Just as she reached out her hand, Xiao Shen flinched at her, his dark eyes fixed on hers. "Assistant Su, is that right? There's really no need to be so nervous. I'm just the boss, not a beast!"

He half-jokingly appeared very approachable, and his colleagues relaxed accordingly. Only Su Ying felt an unprecedented pressure.

She forced a standard business smile, but it looked worse than a grimace.

Xiao Shen raised an eyebrow, then shoved his phone into Su Ying's arms and led a large group of people up the elevator.

As the elevator doors closed, Su Ying seemed to come back to life, letting out a deep breath.

"Oh my god! The handsome boss just picked up your phone for you himself. He's so nice and gentle! Assistant Su, did you see that? The handsome boss's fingers are so long and beautiful. How can even his hands be so beautiful? Ahhh!" The female colleague excitedly grabbed Nan Wu's arm and shook it wildly.

Su Ying: “…”

That being said, she still has time to run away, so should she run away with a heavy burden?

This is a classic case of protesting too much. With Xiao Shen's abilities, if he wants to catch someone, and that person is still on Earth, catching them is only a matter of time.

Half an hour later, Su Ying lingered in front of the general manager's office.

She had just received a notification that the new big boss wanted her to bring in a cup of coffee. At that moment, she almost turned around and ran away, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that if Xiao Shen already knew about her concealing her identity, he would never have tolerated it until now. He would probably have already taken action against her. Therefore, he did not know this secret, and his appearance in Haicheng was just a coincidence.

Yes, it's all a coincidence. Don't scare yourself. Observe the situation calmly first!
Taking a deep breath, Su Ying raised her hand to knock on the door.

A voice stopped her, "Assistant Su!"

The person who came was Yang Xueli, the team leader of the assistant's office. She often bullied colleagues who were not as high-ranking as her because she had connections.

"Team Leader Yang!"

"You've worked hard these past few days. Go and rest for a bit. I have something to report to the new boss. I've brought you some coffee!"

Su Ying: "..." So good? I couldn't ask for more.

Yang Xueli pulled her already low neckline down even further, revealing a stunningly beautiful view.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Mr. Xiao!"

Xiao Shen looked up from the magazine and saw the person; his eyes darkened.

Yang Xueli trembled at his piercing gaze, then adopted a high-pitched voice and swayed her hips as she walked over, "Mr. Xiao, here's your coffee!"

He deliberately bent over deeply, so that Xiao Shen could see everything with just a slight glance.

But this man wouldn't even give her a second glance; that's such a failure.

"Where is Assistant Su? Why is it you?" The man's expression was cold, and his voice was as cold as ice.

Yang Xueli continued in a soft voice, "Oh, you mean Assistant Su? She has other things to do, but don't worry, Mr. Xiao, I can do everything. Just let me know if you need anything!"

"Oh? You can do everything?" Xiao Shen glanced at her out of the corner of his eye.

Yang Xueli immediately became excited, feeling hopeful, "Yes, yes, they will all, they will all!" Xiao Shen gestured with his chin towards the door, "Will they roll away?"

"Uh?"

Su Ying was enjoying her leisure time, chatting with her colleagues while sipping coffee, when Yang Xueli returned with a resentful look on her face and tapped on the table in front of Su Ying. "President Xiao is calling you over. Don't blame me for not warning you, you'd better be careful!"

Su Ying had long anticipated Yang Xueli's fate. Xiao Shen was not as easy to get along with as he appeared on the surface; when he turned cunning, he would make you question your existence.

Now that he has singled her out, Su Ying is doomed and has no choice but to face the challenge head-on.

Boom boom boom!
"Enter!"

The familiar male voice came through, reminding Su Ying of those countless nights filled with ambiguity, and her cheeks flushed.

"President Xiao!" Su Ying greeted him politely.

Since he hasn't come clean, she'll keep pretending for now, just in case she can get away with it!

The man, who was sitting with his back to the executive chair, turned around slowly with a tap of his toes upon hearing this.

He took off his coat and draped it to one side, revealing a dark gray shirt paired with a black suit vest. The three-piece outfit made him look even more refined and elegant. However, no one would know that the man in bed was completely unrelated to that description.

He held the coffee cup in one hand, his dark eyes scanning her up and down, as if trying to pierce a hole through her.

Su Ying felt uneasy, unsure whether to stand still or retreat, especially with his burning gaze. It was as if he had seen through her secrets in an instant. The next second, Su Ying looked away.

"Assistant Su looks like someone I know!"

Su Ying's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly regained her composure. "Who is it?"

Nan Wu is perfectly fine in Ningcheng, so he has no reason to doubt her; at most, he just thinks they look alike.

Yes, as long as you don't admit it, don't give anything away, and stay calm, he won't suspect anything.

Xiao Shen stared into her eyes, a half-smile playing on his lips, "Lover!"

Su Ying pinched her palms together, forcing a smile, "President Xiao, you really know how to joke!"

Xiao Shen shrugged, then walked around the desk. His tall figure gradually approached, and the strong sense of being swallowed up made Su Ying unconsciously retreat.

She was even prepared for him to confront her at any moment, but to her surprise, he simply raised his chin and said, "Could Assistant Su please clean up the place?"

Su Ying: "..." That's it? That's it?

What is he playing at? Has he already realized she's deliberately toying with him, or is he just fooling her?
Xiao Shen is very good at hiding his true nature, making him impossible to see through.

"Okay, I'll clean it up now!" Su Ying calmed herself down, turned around, bent down, and started tidying up the items on the coffee table.

She was wearing a business suit, a satin cream-white shirt, and the entire skirt was tucked into a midi skirt. The smooth, flowing fabric accentuated her shapely figure.

The skirt itself wasn't short, but as she bent over, it rode up a bit, revealing her long, white, and straight legs that were dazzlingly bright and captivating.

Xiao Shen took a sip of coffee, his eyes darkening.

Feeling the burning gaze from behind, Su Ying belatedly realized what was happening and quickly straightened up, pulling her skirt down a bit.

His ambiguous gaze made her scalp tingle; she had a feeling that he had recognized her long ago.

"Mr. Xiao, it's almost ready, you..."

"Assistant Su, you've dropped something!"
