Thousands of people disliked them, but after being reborn and correcting their mistakes, they regret

Xu Fan was stunned when he heard this. So Chun Chun's uncle had already found out...

However, he definitely couldn't tell the truth to Chun Chun's uncle, as it would make him very embarrassed.

Before he could figure out how to answer, Fu Qingci spoke again.

"Is it soft?"

"It's very soft..."

Xu Fan, who was thinking of a new reason, instinctively answered Fu Qingci's question.

Xu Fan realized what he had said only after he finished speaking, and his face turned red again. Wasn't this just being a pervert? It was so offensive!

He weakly protested, "I'm sorry, I... I really didn't mean to..."

Fu Qingci watched as Xu Fan's face slowly turned red again, and she lowered her head, looking embarrassed. She thought to herself that Xu Fan must be shy.

Fu Qingci was surprised by Xu Fan's initiative. He had never seen Xu Fan take the initiative to make physical contact with other guests while watching the show. They had only known each other for two days, and Xu Fan dared to pat his butt. Could this prove that he was very attractive to Xu Fan?

He said softly to Xu Fan, "It's alright, go sit down, the water will be here soon."

Fu Qingci was just teasing Xu Fan, but Xu Fan was so shy that he couldn't be pushed too hard. After he finished speaking, Xu Fan fled back to the chair he had been sitting in.

Xu Fan sat in the chair for a while to recover, and then Fu Qingci came over with a cup.

He handed the cup to Xu Fan: "Be careful, it's hot."

The cup is very beautiful; it's pure white ceramic. Actually, it belongs to Fu Qingci. This is Fu Qingci's private office and lounge. The company has a special area for entertaining guests, and usually, no one except his assistant enters his office. So, this is the only cup that Fu Qingci has ever used.

He chose the one he used most often, washed it clean, heated the water to a slightly warm temperature, and soaked some dried osmanthus flowers in it, wondering if Xu Fan would like it...

"Thank you..." Xu Fan accepted the cup, flattered. He had thought it was a disposable cup. Now that he had gotten such a beautiful cup dirty, it couldn't be used by anyone else...

After Fu Qingci handed it to him, he sat down opposite him. Xu Fan quickly said to him, "I can use a disposable cup..."

To everyone's surprise, Fu Qingci looked hurt after hearing this, and even her tone carried a hint of grievance: "I don't have any disposable cups here. This is my cup, but I washed it very clean. Are you disgusted by it?"

How could Xu Fan possibly dislike Fu Qingci! Fu Qingci was so good to him, Xu Fan quickly shook his head, saying, "I don't dislike her at all!"

Then Xu Fan picked up the cup and took a big gulp, as if to prove that she really didn't mind.

Fu Qingci watched as Xu Fan took a large gulp from the cup with great gusto. Although he had heated the water to a lukewarm temperature, just right for drinking, he was still worried that Xu Fan wouldn't be able to handle the temperature. He nervously whispered to him, "Slow down, be careful it's hot..."

The moment the warm water touched her lips, Xu Fan's eyes lit up. This water smelled so good! It had a fragrant osmanthus scent. When she put the cup down, she saw that there were indeed some osmanthus flowers lying at the bottom.

Fu Qingci had been silently observing Xu Fan's every move. When he poured water for Xu Fan, he added a little bit of osmanthus flowers to it because he himself never liked coffee, but preferred water with a certain flavor. He wanted Xu Fan to try what he thought was delicious.

Seeing Xu Fan's bright eyes and delighted expression, he knew he had put the ingredients in the right place; Xu Fan liked the taste.

He's about to place an order for ten cans, no, twenty cans of dried osmanthus.

That's good, he understands Xu Fan a little bit more now.

"Is it good?" Fu Qingci asked Xu Fan.

Xu Fan quickly replied, "It's delicious! It smells wonderful."

Fu Qingci smiled and introduced to Xu Fan, "I added some dried osmanthus flowers to the water. Take a jar back with you later; it can be steeped for a long time."

How could Xu Fan accept such a valuable gift? He quickly refused, "This is too precious! I can't accept it, thank you..."

"I'll need your help to play with Chun Chun in a few days, and this isn't anything expensive, so please accept it."

Xu Fan has never been good at refusing others, especially when it comes to Fu Qingci; for some reason, he finds it particularly difficult to refuse her.

He answered softly, "Okay."

After drinking a few sips of hot water, Fu Qingci noticed that Xu Fan's condition had improved somewhat, and she decided to ask Xu Fan what had just happened.

Xu Fan's home is far from here, so why is he here? And why is he in such a bad state?

Fu Qingci had many questions to ask, but they needed to take it slowly.

He hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Xu Fan, can you tell me what just happened?"

Xu Fan was slightly taken aback when he heard his words. He knew what Fu Qingci was asking: why he was there in that state.

However, he... didn't want to tell the truth. First, the matter was too complicated and difficult to explain, and second, he didn't want his uncle Chun Chun to know about his shameful past.

He pursed his lips and thought for a moment before cautiously saying, "I came here to look for a job, but I was too nervous just now, so... I'll be leaving..."

Actually, this isn't entirely a lie; he did come here looking for work, and he did indeed run away in the end.

Fu Qingci had seen countless people, and seeing Xu Fan's uneasy, darting eyes and pursed lips, he knew he wasn't telling the truth.

It's okay. Xu Fan is unwilling to talk about it because they are not familiar with each other yet. No one would tell a person they have only known for two days everything about themselves.

After seeing Xu Fan off, he went to investigate personally.

Do you really need a job?

Fu Qingci asked.

Xu Fan didn't expect Fu Qingci to ask that question. He thought that once he explained, the topic would be over, and he could quickly find an excuse to go home.

But when he saw Fu Qingci showing him concern, he suddenly felt like he wanted to confide in her.

"Well, the next episode is in a month. I'd like to find a job so I won't be so idle..."

After listening, an idea instantly popped into Fu Qingci's mind.

He stared intently at Xu Fan: "Xu Fan, my company is short-staffed. How about coming to work for me?"

Xu Fan looked up in disbelief. Such a big company must have many people who want to work here, so how could it be short of staff?

Judging from Xu Fan's expression, he clearly didn't believe it.

Fu Qingci spoke nonsense with a straight face: "Sigh, you have no idea, so many people think I'm too fierce, and they all ran away during the interviews..."

If his assistant were here, he would definitely look at him with disdain. "Have you no shame? You're too fierce. Isn't it because you have too high standards and find fault with others?"

Xu Fan was even more surprised when he heard this. He felt that something was wrong with what he said. Chun Chun's uncle was so good-looking, and he wasn't fierce at all. And would the interviewees really be scared away by the boss's appearance?

Seeing that Xu Fan still didn't believe her, Fu Qingci decided to pull out all the stops. Xu Fan lowered his eyes, revealing a disappointed, helpless, and slightly hurt expression: "Really, I can't recruit anyone..."

Seeing how upset he was, Xu Fan quickly comforted him, inwardly scolding herself for doubting Chun Chun's uncle; she must have touched a nerve.

He quickly reassured her, "You're not fierce at all! I'd love to work here, but I can only work for a month first. Don't worry, I'll come back after the next episode!"

Unseen by Xu Fan, a glint of shrewdness and triumph flashed in Fu Qingci's eyes. The plan had succeeded!

He knew this trick would work! He used it to get the water glass incident earlier.

However, isn't Xu Fan still in college? School starts not long after the next episode, and college students probably don't have that much time.

"It's okay, going to school is more important. You can come whenever you have time."

Xu Fan explained somewhat embarrassedly, "I've taken a break from school, so I have plenty of time."

Fu Qingci was somewhat surprised after hearing this. Why would Xu Fan drop out of school? However, even if he wanted to know, he couldn't ask Xu Fan now. Regardless of whether it was Xu Fan's own wish or not, Xu Fan certainly wouldn't want to say.

He'll figure out the reason.

"That's perfect. From now on, you'll work for me. I'll have someone prepare the contract." If Xu Fan agrees, wouldn't he be able to see Xu Fan every day?

Hmm, it seems work isn't so boring after all.

Xu Fan was utterly shocked. Are big companies really this... hasty in signing contracts? He hadn't even said what he'd be doing yet. It seemed Uncle Chun Chun wasn't lying; this company really was short-staffed...

"I'm willing! But what do you need me to do?"

Fu Qingci's smile froze on his face. He hadn't really thought about that. All he could think about was getting Xu Fan into his company first. But the clever CEO Fu quickly came up with a plan.

"How about being my assistant? My job is to organize files, sometimes hand me documents, and clean my office."

Xu Fan was overjoyed. He couldn't believe that Fu Qingci would ask him to be his assistant. In the past, when he was interviewing, no one wanted to hire college students who hadn't graduated or people with no experience as assistants.

This is a rare opportunity to gain experience.

He was so excited he was almost incoherent: "Thank you, Uncle Chun Chun! Don't worry! I... I know a lot. I can organize files and clean very well. I will definitely keep learning so I can do even more for you in the future!"

"Okay, I believe you," Fu Qingci replied softly, her tone full of certainty.

"Fu Chun misses you so much! Can you come over to our house tomorrow? I can bring you the contract while I'm at it, okay?"

"Sure!" He was about to start work, and he wouldn't have much free time, so he wanted to see Chun Chun before he went to work.

"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow. I might stay a few more days because Chun Chun didn't sleep at all last night. I heard she missed you so much that she kept asking you to sleep with her."

"But you don't need to bring anything, everything has been prepared for you."

Xu Fan had never stayed overnight at someone else's house before, but Fu Chun missed him, and he missed Fu Chun too. He was willing to stay overnight at Fu Chun's house, but he didn't know how many days he would stay.

"Will this interfere with my work?"

Xu Fan was somewhat worried.

"Don't worry about that, the company still has some manpower."

Xu Fan was naturally grateful that Fu Qingci had made such meticulous arrangements.

Fu Qingci looked out the window; it was getting late.

"Xu Fan, may I invite you to dinner?"

Just as Xu Fangang was about to find an excuse to slip away, Fu Qingci extended an invitation.

"I……"

He didn't say the words of refusal.

Because Fu Qingci once again revealed that pitiful and dejected expression: "I always eat dinner alone, no one eats dinner with me..."

"Don't be sad! I can stay with you!"

It worked again! Fu Qingci remembered the video she had accidentally seen on a video app last night.

"To make a man soften towards you, learn to show vulnerability! Arouse his protective instincts, and he'll agree to any request you make!"

He didn't know why he came across this kind of video; maybe it was the power of big data.

However, he felt that this would be useful, so he kept it to himself. Now that he saw it, it really worked!

Whenever he showed a disappointed or sad expression, Xu Fan would agree to anything he asked.

Upon hearing Xu Fan's agreement, he immediately put on a smiling face, his speed resembling a Sichuan opera face-changing act.

"Thank you, Xu Fan. Let's go now."

As he spoke, he got up. This time, instead of reaching out to Xu Fan and waiting for Xu Fan to take his hand, he took Xu Fan's hand and pulled him up.

Of course, he didn't forget the jar of osmanthus flowers. He led Xu Fan to the tea room and put the jar of osmanthus flowers into Xu Fan's other hand.

Xu Fan was led by the hand by Fu Qingci the whole time. He still felt a little embarrassed, but seeing Fu Qingci's usual attitude, he thought that Uncle Chun Chun probably liked to lead others by the hand. It was probably his habit. He should respect other people's habits.

They took the same elevator they had used to come up. After getting off, Fu Qingci led Xu Fan out. As they passed the front desk, he frowned slightly.

The receptionist was holding her phone and grinning like an idiot, with another receptionist standing next to her. They were probably changing shifts. Logically, after a shift change, the receptionist who was on duty should leave, leaving only one receptionist.

But they were both standing there, staring at their phones and laughing. The receptionist is a company's first impression. If Xu Fan saw them like this, what would he do if he thought his company wasn't a good company?

He wanted to see what those two were up to.

He gestured "shh" to Xu Fan with one hand, then quietly led her to the front desk.

The receptionist wasn't actually planning to show that photo to anyone, but it was just too funny! The aloof and serious CEO Fu, the dream lover of countless girls, had two puddles of dirt on his butt, and the shape of his butt was clearly visible!

It's fine as long as you don't send it to others to avoid it being spread, but it's okay to share it in person. So when another receptionist came to change shifts, she promptly showed it to her.

"Look at this! I'm dying of laughter! From now on, I'm not afraid of President Fu anymore, and I don't think he's aloof anymore."

"That's really funny, but who is he holding hands with? From behind, it looks like a boy?"

Have you seen "My Twenty-Year-Old Father"? It's Xu Fan! I love him so much!

"I've seen it, I like him too! Are you sure it's him?"

"Absolutely true!"

"What are you looking at?"

"They're having a good time!"

The receptionist, laughing uncontrollably, answered instinctively.

Wait! That sound!

The two receptionists were immediately terrified and slowly raised their heads in fear. Sure enough, it was President Fu!

The young woman quickly pressed the power button on her phone, but it was too late; they had already zoomed in and could see everything clearly from above.

Now it was Fu Qingci's turn to be dumbfounded. Wasn't that his back view? What were those two blobs on his pants? Were they dust?

He suddenly remembered that when he ran into Xu Fan outside earlier, he had sat on the flower bed for a while, and that must have been when he got the substance.

So Xu Fan's actions just now were to dust him off?! He even narcissistically thinks his body is very attractive to Xu Fan?!

His ears turned red, and for the first time in his life, he felt ashamed.

But this receptionist actually dared to secretly take his picture and share it with others.

His hands clenched unconsciously because he was angry.

"What's wrong?" Xu Fan felt that Fu Qingci's grip was tighter than before and was worried that something had happened.

"It's nothing, just a small matter, I'll take care of it right away," Fu Qingci said softly to Xu Fan as she turned her head.

Then, in an extremely cold voice, she whispered to the receptionist, "Delete it."

The receptionist suddenly realized, with a start, that Mr. Fu's tone was so cold; he must have recognized it as her backside! Of course, even magnified, who wouldn't recognize their own backside? She should have peeked secretly; who knew Mr. Fu would come down so quickly!

"Delete it right away! I'm so sorry, Mr. Fu!" The young lady hurriedly deleted it.

After seeing that she had deleted it, Fu Qingci took Xu Fan's hand and left.

They looked at each other and felt that their careers had come to an end.

Another receptionist suddenly grabbed her excitedly: "It really does look like Xu Fan!"

"Of course! I'm very accurate!"

The two young women exchanged a knowing glance, and a bold idea simultaneously popped into their heads.

Anyway, I'm going to get fired for offending President Fu, so I don't care anymore, I'll just live life to the fullest!

"Xu Fan! I love you!" the receptionist shouted as she watched Fu Qingci and Xu Fan about to leave.

Xu Fan turned his head in surprise. Was she calling him?

Fu Qingci's face was gloomy.

Another girl immediately joined the group buy, shouting loudly, "Xu Fan, I want to marry you!"

The receptionist gave another receptionist a thumbs-up and nodded approvingly: "You're much better at it!"

"Same to you!"

Fu Qingci gritted her teeth, her face darkening further, and quickly pulled the stunned Xu Fan out.
