Chapter 191 Whose Kitten Is This? (Fourth Update, Please Vote!)

Gu Huai, who never liked making voice calls, answered the phone.

Not only that, but also for this so-called insight, for the sake of learning something real.

The call went on until 4:30 a.m.

The person on the other end became more and more energetic as they talked, while Gu Huai became more and more sleepy as he listened.

It's like listening to your English teacher speak an alien language when you're in school.

Was it useful? It was actually somewhat useful. At least Xu Wenxi's explanations provided Gu Huai with a lot of valuable information that he hadn't understood or had misunderstood before.

What about traffic algorithms, how to alleviate fans' aesthetic fatigue, and so on.

However, this woman's greatest talent is going astray.

She was still on the main topic, but then she started talking about the grievances she had suffered and the strange people she had encountered over the years as an internet celebrity.

Perhaps Gu Huai could be a good listener under normal circumstances, but today he had drunk quite a bit of alcohol and had experienced a lot of mentally exhausting things. The more he listened, the sleepier he became, and the less he could keep his eyes open.

You said it was a coincidence or not.

I made the call while lying in bed, and the volume was just right with the phone pressed against my ear.

At some unknown point, Gu Huai completely disconnected.

When Gu Huai finally woke up, he was still woken up by the alarm clock he had set.

I almost flung my phone off my face when we got together.

Fortunately, she managed to grab it firmly, and then she gradually remembered what happened last night. It seemed that she had been on the phone with Xu Wenxi.

and after?
He looked at the chat history on his phone.

The call, which lasted for almost three hours, ended with Xu Wenxi hanging up on her own initiative. During the call, she even typed out a few lines of text for herself on the screen.

[Gu Huai, I think I heard some strange noises coming from your direction.]

[Hello? What's wrong? Why are you silent?]

[Damn! It was you snoring! I thought you'd been tied to a motorcycle! You think you can hypnotize me when I try to have a heart-to-heart talk?! I'm really going to kill you!!]

I hurriedly got up, feeling a little embarrassed, and quickly replied that I was just too tired and had fallen asleep.

But I didn't get a reply immediately, probably because I just fell asleep recently?

There's no time to think about these things; getting up only when the alarm rings usually makes people feel rushed.

Gu Huai immediately began a quick morning wash and then headed out towards the company.

Being late was out of the question, and Gu Huai wasn't actually that tired. It was probably because of his improved stats that he didn't need much rest to get his body back to a good state.

Even the aftereffects of drinking a lot of alcohol, such as headaches, dizziness, and sluggish thinking, did not occur.

On the contrary, after checking in, we saw that Cai Yan, who arrived late, was not in a very good condition.

Her clothes were still impeccable, and her hair was neatly combed, but she looked tired and listless. Although she remained aloof and beautiful, one could sense that her soul was being dragged along.

"Team Leader Cai, are you alright?"

Hearing Gu Huai's concerned voice, Cai Yan subconsciously raised her head, but just as she opened her mouth to say something, she seemed to remember something.

His eyes instantly turned sharp and disdainful.

"none of your business?"

Gu Huai: ? ? ?
"No. I was just looking at you."

"Don't look at me, I don't need you to look at me. Go look at your Lin Jiang, move aside."

After speaking, Cai Yan walked directly past Gu Huai and went into the office.

"boom!"

The sound of the door closing was terrifying; anyone who didn't know better would think a sledgehammer was being swung somewhere.

Gu Huai thought for a moment.

She's probably still upset about what happened last night. I know this woman has a bad temper, but is it really worth getting angry about this long?

Gu Huai didn't have much experience with women's tempers. If he had to find a way to deal with them, he would probably think of ignoring them.

Just leave it there; it'll be fine after a while.

Old Lin walked over to Gu Huai's side while keeping an eye on the closed office door.

"Did they upset our team leader?"

Gu Huai didn't know how to explain the problem, so he could only sigh and say, "There might be a small misunderstanding."

"What's wrong with a small misunderstanding? As long as it's not a matter of principle, just coax her a little and it'll be fine. Women are all like that; when they get angry, it's more intense than a gunfight. But if you're a little shameless and brave enough to get closer, you'll find that she still cares about you."

Gu Huai frowned and looked at Lao Lin.

"Why is it that when women are angry, men have to comfort them, but when men are angry, no one comforts them and they have to silently endure it?"

Old Lin's eyes widened. "What do you mean by that?"

Gu Huai sneered, "Men have dignity. If you coax them today and tomorrow, they'll only take advantage of you more. It's the same principle as spoiling a child. What if you have to kneel down and beg her the day you don't do what she wants?"

"Ouch!"

Old Lin was even more shocked.

Gu Huai waved his hand casually, "Just do what you need to do. Besides, we don't have any special relationship, so there's no reason for me to coax her."

As he spoke, Gu Huai started walking.

Old Lin quickly reminded him, "If you're so amazing, why are you walking into their office?"

Gu Huai said with a serious expression, "There's a document that needs her signature, and I'm just doing my job."

As he spoke, Old Lin watched as Gu Huai opened the door to the other party's office and went inside.

Old Lin, as if he could already see the ending, couldn't help but look disgusted.

"You keep pretending!"

"Get out!"

Cai Yan was furious when she saw that this bastard dared to show up after provoking her, without even knocking on the door.

Weren't you having a great time being her protector yesterday? Personally escorting her home late at night? But this morning you pretended to care about my poor condition.

Who cares?

It's true that my mental state isn't quite right.

As soon as she got home—or rather, before she even got home—the overwhelming effects of the alcohol kicked in in Cai Yi's car, and she couldn't hold on any longer.

It was even Cai Yi who woke him up.

I've been quite busy lately, and this drinking session almost made Cai Yan ask for a day off from work. But then I thought about how I still had to attend someone else's formal wedding, and asking for a day off would be pointless, especially since I'd already taken half a day off.

Everything was fine at first, just a bit of mental exhaustion, but when she arrived at the company and saw Gu Huai, she remembered everything.

The thought of that bastard knowingly allowed that Lin guy to get involved despite his ill intentions filled her with rage.

She was more likely to think about what might have happened between them last night, at a time she didn't know about, which made her even more uneasy.

Of course, the most important thing is that I can't express these emotions in a justifiable way.

After all, the two are just superior and subordinate in the company. Is it reasonable to discuss these things in the company? It will only make people gossip.

So I couldn't help but sulk.

That's a woman's fate; she always gets angry at herself, sobbing and wanting to cry, but no tears come out. This time, Gu Huai wasn't intimidated by the other woman's 'fierce' expression.

Instead, he looked at her expression with some concern.

"I told you not to drink so much yesterday. You look like you haven't slept at all. Why don't you just rest?"

"I told you it's none of your business, it's my own affair."

Seeing Gu Huai's seemingly sincere gaze, Cai Yan softened her tone slightly, though her expression remained indifferent.

Gu Huai didn't care about all that.

He walked straight up to them.

"Do you want me to help you relieve the pain?"

Cai Yan looked up at him. "Why are you so close? Didn't you hear me tell you to go outside?"

Relieve it? What can you use to relieve it? Do you think you can just use that innocent, harmless expression to comfort me and get away with it? Do you really think I'm so easy to fool?

"Let me tell you, there's a secret I've never told you."

"."

Cai Yan raised her head.

What is he doing?
What secrets could we be sharing so close together? Could it be...?
"What do you want to say?"

Gu Huai had already walked to her side, then slowly turned around and walked behind her.

"Is such that."

The sound coming from behind was very unsettling, and Cai Yan, who was already in poor spirits, felt a sudden jolt of fear.

Did he and Lin Jiang not get along well last night, and something happened that created a rift, making him realize his own importance?
Also.

After all, besides himself, who else would be so tolerant of him, help him, and quietly encourage him to change his life? A woman like him is too perfect; it's hard not to be moved.

But wouldn't it be too despicable to say this at this time?

I wasn't feeling well, and I was mentally exhausted, so I just did my makeup haphazardly today.
"actually, I"

"I'm not open to office romances for now."

"I know how to give massages."

"massage?"

"Hmm, massage. Team Leader Cai, what were you trying to say just now?"

Gu Huai turned his head earnestly to ask the question.

Cai Yan's face flushed slightly.

"I told you it's inappropriate for you to stay in my office this long! Get out!"

This is infuriating! They talked for so long and hid so much information during a massage. Weren't they deliberately trying to make people misunderstand? They're all up to no good!

Gu Huai smiled, and although he didn't get her permission, he still placed his hand on her shoulder this time.

Cai Yan visibly trembled and immediately tried to struggle.

However, Gu Huai could easily press Cai Yan firmly into the chair with a little force, he said.

"Give it a try. I'm very skilled; maybe you can recover a little."

"I've never heard of that. I think you're just trying to take advantage of the situation."

"Why don't you give it a try? Five minutes, okay? No charge if you're not satisfied."

"Shouldn't I be the one taking the money?"

"What services do you offer for a fee?"

"Gu Huai!"

"Okay, okay, I'm not kidding anymore. Relax a little and feel it. Is this shoulder made of cement?"

"If you say another word, get out!"

"No more, no more."

Gu Huai indeed didn't say anything more and didn't test it on others beforehand, after all, he wasn't a professional masseur.

However, he still had a lot of confidence in what the simulation system provided, and focused on massaging Cai Yan.

Cai Yan was initially indifferent, but her initial anger had been completely dispelled by the other party's banter, and she could no longer muster any anger.

But I really don't think the massage they're talking about can have any effect.

Isn't it just a bunch of random pressing? Or is it some kind of traditional Chinese medicine technique? It seems more like an excuse to take advantage.

She probably hoped I would politely compliment her on her technique, but I wasn't that kind. Having transmigrated into a female-oriented world, she was a typical villainous heroine! She'd start cursing right away!
Similar preparations have already been made.

In fact, Gu Huai didn't know if the acupoints were accurate or not; he just went by feeling.

"I'm starting."

"!!"

The tingling sensation was like an electric current, and Cai Yan couldn't help but cry out as if she had been electrocuted. Then she quickly realized what was happening, her face turning bright red as she covered her lips.

She opened her eyes wide.

What just happened?
Whose voice was that? Is someone else in my office? Where are they hiding?

It's not me anyway!

"Huh? Such a strong reaction?"

Cai Yan, her face already flushed, immediately denied it.

"What kind of reaction is that? You're pressing too hard! All you do is rub and call it a massage? Are you trying to strangle me?"

That's complete nonsense.

The sensation of the electric current flowing through her entire body was pure bliss; she even subconsciously clenched her legs together.

Because I've never experienced the effects of this massage before. It's so strange, so comfortable, so comfortable it makes me feel uneasy.

Gu Huai, who had taken in the other party's reaction, simply smiled and then rolled up his sleeves.

"Okay, I'll be more careful with the pressure from now on. Relax, and tell me if you feel uncomfortable."

"How can you feel comfortable pressing on me? You really think you're so special? Well... you! Ouch!"

Just as I was about to say something, the other person immediately pressed my hand down on my shoulder.

A more intense tingling sensation washed over her, making it almost impossible to control her reactions. This startled Cai Yan, who instinctively tried to resist and stop him from continuing. But Gu Huai didn't care about any of that. What was there to argue about? He rolled up his sleeves and got to work!

In the office, a man with his sleeves rolled up was working hard, head down.

The woman in the office chair, her face flushed, was trembling all over.

"Pap-pap-pap-pap."

Lin, busy working on his keyboard, had forgotten how long Gu Huai had been inside and why he hadn't come out yet.

But soon, he raised his head somewhat blankly and looked around strangely.

"Where did that cat's mating sound come from? No, wait, where did that cat come from in the company?"
