Forcibly Snatched by the Tyrant After Transmigrating into a Book 96

Chapter 96: Extra 4 – Modern CEO AU (Part 2)

Chu Yi temporarily distanced himself from Sheng Qianheng, took a plate, and picked some snacks. He chewed them carefully, recalling the earlier interaction.

Sheng Qianheng touched his head? This… should absolutely not exist in their superior-subordinate relationship.
Moreover, Sheng Qianheng should be younger than him. What was this?

He looked back at Sheng Qianheng and unexpectedly met his gaze. Chu Yi had no choice but to immediately look elsewhere, eating his snacks uncomfortably.

Only after he had filled his stomach a little did he stand by Sheng Qianheng’s side again, but he deliberately kept a safe distance from him.

Seeing that Chu Yi was so far away from him, Sheng Qianheng could do nothing even if he wanted to get close to him.
He couldn’t be too hasty now. He held a wine glass and discussed business with the CEOs of various companies.

The CEOs present, as long as they had eyes, could all see that Chu Yi’s and Sheng Qianheng’s suits were a couple’s set. Therefore, even if someone was interested in Chu Yi’s unfamiliar face, no one dared to approach him and strike up a conversation.

But the CEO of a rival company saw Sheng Qianheng’s various acts of concern for Chu Yi. He took advantage of the gap when Sheng Qianheng was talking with others, walked to Chu Yi’s side, and said politely, “I wonder if I could have the honor of having a drink with you?”

Chu Yi looked back at the person. He should be about the same age as him, but he looked to be much wealthier. He didn’t like to have too much contact with these people, but for a moment, he didn’t know how to refuse.
He was afraid that if he offended these people, his days would be difficult.

After smiling faintly at the person, he slowly moved his body and subtly tugged on Sheng Qianheng’s sleeve.

Sheng Qianheng immediately looked back. The moment he looked at Chu Yi, he noticed the person beside him. He immediately said, “CEO Qu, why are you in the mood to chat with my person today?”

CEO Qu withdrew the hand holding the business card, glanced at Sheng Qianheng, and said with a contemptuous tone, “President Sheng is so young and promising. Could it be that you already have a family? This person, could he be…?”

Seeing this, Chu Yi immediately waved his hand and denied it. “You’ve misunderstood. I’m President Sheng’s secretary.”

“Oh? Secretary?” CEO Qu deliberately raised his voice, and in an instant, the attention of the surrounding people was focused on the three of them. “President Sheng’s secretary is quite good-looking~”

Chu Yi gave an awkward smile. He seemed to have said too much…
Sheng Qianheng lowered his gaze, not looking at CEO Qu. He straightened his sleeves and said faintly, “I’m afraid President Qu is tired of the people around him and is looking for a new little secretary again.”

CEO Qu coughed twice, then feigned that nothing had happened. “President Sheng, why are you so aggressive?”

“How could that be?” Seeing Chu Yi’s discomfort, Sheng Qianheng raised a hand to wrap around his shoulder and continued, “I’m new here. There are many places where I’ve been impolite. Please bear with me, CEO Qu.”

CEO Qu had originally wanted to cause trouble for Sheng Qianheng but had never expected to be outmaneuvered. He could only leave in a huff.

After seeing CEO Qu turn around, Chu Yi immediately turned his body slightly to dodge Sheng Qianheng’s hand and then whispered, “I’m sorry for causing trouble for President Sheng. I shouldn’t have said too much.”

Seeing that there were still many people watching the show, Sheng Qianheng looked up and gave a slight warning glance, then took Chu Yi’s wrist and walked toward an empty place.

Although Chu Yi disliked such close contact, he didn’t dare to struggle, being watched by so many pairs of eyes.

Sheng Qianheng took Chu Yi to the garden and found a hidden corner to sit down.

Chu Yi moved a few inches away. Seeing this, Sheng Qianheng immediately said, “Perhaps there will be rumors tomorrow.”

Chu Yi was puzzled. What did that mean?
“President Sheng, I don’t understand…”

“The circle has always been full of gossip. With this situation today, tomorrow will be full of news that you are my kept man.”
Sheng Qianheng sat up straight, looking into Chu Yi’s eyes in the moonlight. His heartbeat had, at some point, lost its speed, and his breathing had also quickened a little.

The September night wind blew, bringing just the right amount of coolness that brushed against his cheek.
The moonlight happened to outline Sheng Qianheng’s clear facial contours. Chu Yi was unconsciously mesmerized, his Adam’s apple bobbing.
For a moment, he forgot to reply.

Seeing this, Sheng Qianheng rubbed Chu Yi’s hair and chuckled softly. “Why aren’t you talking?”

The moment Chu Yi felt Sheng Qianheng’s intimate gesture, he suddenly stood up and stammered, “Pres… President Sheng, I think… I’ll go back and… rest, okay?”

Sheng Qianheng’s hand was still suspended in mid-air. He slowly withdrew it, feigning to straighten his collar, and stood up. “Let’s go. I’ll take you.”

He knew that Chu Yi would refuse and continued, “The business that needed to be discussed has already been discussed. Today was a success. I brought you here, and it’s not easy to get a taxi here. I’ll take you back on the way. Where do you live?”

Chu Yi pressed his lips together and stared at Sheng Qianheng’s back, always feeling that there were too many things that were not right.
Sheng Qianheng had come to the dinner party without a female companion but had brought him, a secretary he had only known for a day?
And as a director, he was even going to personally take a small employee home?
As for those overly intimate gestures, they were countless…

In the end, he sat in Sheng Qianheng’s passenger seat again. He looked at the night view outside the car window and didn’t say a word.

Sheng Qianheng would glance at Chu Yi’s state from time to time, always worried that he was in a bad mood.
He feigned a casual question, “I didn’t eat much at the dinner party just now. My stomach is a little uncomfortable from hunger. How about you?”

Chu Yi immediately took his bag from the back seat, took out some stomach medicine, and handed it to Sheng Qianheng during a red light, then twisted open a bottle of water. “President Sheng, this is stomach medicine. I often take it myself. You can rest assured.”

Sheng Qianheng was in a daze for two seconds. He saw that Chu Yi’s face was still faint, as if nothing could startle him.
After he had taken the medicine, the car was quiet again.

The car stopped downstairs from Chu Yi’s home. Before getting out, Chu Yi looked at Sheng Qianheng and said, “President Sheng, I’ll pay you back for this suit slowly. As for the rumors, I’ve thought about it. The innocent need no defense. Besides, President Sheng can’t possibly have any other ideas about me.”

Sheng Qianheng opened his mouth slightly. After a long time of choosing his words, he finally uttered a sentence, “Chu Yi, although I am your superior, there’s no need to be so distant…”

Chu Yi was puzzled. Wasn’t it normal to keep a safe distance from one’s boss? Besides, with Sheng Qianheng’s face, he was afraid that he would fall for him after just a few more glances. He didn’t dare to have too much contact with him!
“President Sheng, we only met for the first time today.”

Sheng Qianheng sighed slightly. “That’s true. You should go back and rest. You can come to work an hour late tomorrow.”

Chu Yi immediately shook his head. “That won’t do. I’m just an ordinary employee. I don’t have any special privileges. I’ll go first…”
He immediately pushed open the car door. “President Sheng, see you tomorrow!”

After the car door was closed, Chu Yi walked into the neighborhood without looking back.

The moment he opened the door, he heard his older brother in the room ask, “Why are you off work so late today? Where did you go?”

Chu Yi looked at his older brother, Chu Rui, who was in the kitchen, not knowing what he was cooking. He trotted over and asked, “Is there a share for me?”

Chu Rui scanned his younger brother’s high-end suit and couldn’t help but be puzzled. “This outfit of yours is…?”

Only then did Chu Yi take off his suit, carefully fold it, and put it away. Only after changing into his home clothes did he reply to Chu Rui, “I accompanied my new boss to a dinner party today. The boss bought it for me and said I had to look decent.”

Chu Rui brought the freshly cooked chicken noodle soup to the table. His brows furrowed at any time, and his radar was unconsciously activated. “How old is your new boss? He’s not gay, is he?”

“He’s much younger than me. I’m not sure about the details.” Chu Yi picked up his chopsticks, quickly ate his noodles, and continued, “Don’t you be so gay and look at people as gay!”

Chu Rui crossed his arms and sat opposite Chu Yi, unable to help but worry that his younger brother would be tricked away by someone!
“You be careful at work. Don’t be taken advantage of.”

Chu Yi had a large mouthful of noodles in his mouth and mumbled, “I know. Brother, aren’t you tired of nagging about this and that every day?”

Just as Chu Rui was about to speak, he heard Chu Yi ask again, “How are you and your sister-in-law? Didn’t you say you were getting your marriage certificate next month?”

This was the last thing Chu Rui wanted to bring up today. He raised a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose and said coldly, “What sister-in-law? He’s a man, after all. Besides… forget it, it’s nothing.”

Chu Yi was puzzled. What was wrong? Did they have a fight again?
His sister-in-law was a man because he and his older brother were both naturally gay. His sister-in-law was several years younger than his older brother.

His older brother was almost 36 now, but his sister-in-law was only 27. They were 9 years apart.
He urged his older brother to get married every day, and his older brother worried every day that he would be tricked away by a scumbag.

Chu Yi: “Did you make your sister-in-law angry?”
Chu Rui shook his head. “Not really.”
Chu Yi: “Then what’s wrong?”
Chu Rui: “You’re a kid. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you!”

Chu Rui was unwilling to tell him, so he wasn’t willing to listen either. After he had finished his chicken noodle soup, he took a simple shower and went straight to bed.

The next day at eight o’clock, Chu Yi sat in his office on time, ready to start the day’s work.

As expected, all sorts of messy rumors had already spread throughout the company.
In just the time it took to pour a cup of water, he had already heard three or five stories about his relationship with Sheng Qianheng.

Apart from a faint laugh, Chu Yi was too lazy to say anything.

After his office phone rang, he immediately picked it up. It was Sheng Qianheng, asking him to go to his office.

Chu Yi stood in Sheng Qianheng’s office, very awkward.

Seeing this, Sheng Qianheng told him to sit down and then said slowly, “Did you hear the rumors in the company today?”

Chu Yi nodded.
Sheng Qianheng: “Just listen to those rumors and don’t clarify them. The innocent need no defense. I’ll send someone to investigate who is spreading the gossip.”

Chu Yi clasped his hands behind his back and fiddled with his fingertips. “President Sheng, may I take the liberty of asking, have we met before? Do you have someone you like?”

Sheng Qianheng was suddenly stunned and laughed. “Didn’t you just meet me for the first time yesterday? But I do have someone I like.”

Chu Yi pressed again, “President Sheng, you don’t like me, do you?”
The moment he asked, Chu Yi was filled with regret. No matter how Sheng Qianheng answered, he would not be able to get out of this.
He had asked too much. Now he was the one who was embarrassed, QAQ…

He saw that Sheng Qianheng’s expression was a little awkward and thought that he would not reply and would directly ask him to leave the office. He never expected that he would actually speak.

Sheng Qianheng took a sip of the coffee on the table, licked his lips slightly, and then whispered, “Yes… Secretary Chu, what are your plans?”
