If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 425 - : Take Off Your Own Clothes

Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Take Off Your Own Clothes

“Miss, Shen’s has always been fair and just with strict discipline,” the handsome young man said politely and with a refined air.

“But I’ve heard your president has a lot of scandals,” Xu Chaomu propped her chin and looked at him with big eyes full of confusion and skepticism.

“I don’t care about that. I’m not interested in our president,” the young man said with a smile.

“…” Xu Chaomu gave him a sideways glance, “Lack of ambition.”

“By the way, has anyone climbed up the ranks through the ‘hidden rules’?” Xu Chaomu asked again.

“Miss, are you thinking about joining Shen’s?” the young man asked.

“Yes, yes, that’s right, I not only want to join Shen’s, but I also want to see if there’s a shortcut. I’m pretty ambitious, aren’t I?”

“Miss, at Shen’s, everything is based on ability. It’s quite difficult if you’re looking for a shortcut,” the handsome guy said with a smile.

Difficult? Is Shen Chi very strict with his subordinates?

Actually, it seemed so. She had wandered around the first floor for quite a while and noticed that everyone was energetic and took their work seriously. No one was chatting idly, and certainly, no one was sneaking around engaging in romance.

In this respect, Yu Weiwei still had a lot to learn. During her visit to the research institute, she saw several girls at the reception gossiping.

Now Xu Chaomu was curious, how exactly did Jian Sisi land the position of Shen Chi’s secretary?

After thinking it over, there was only one reason: a big chest.

“Handsome guy, I heard your president is young and successful, and also single. Don’t many girls in your group pursue him?”

“This…” the young man smiled awkwardly, hesitant to speak.

But it was a girl next to him who spoke up, chuckling, “Our president doesn’t fancy just any girl.”

“So, what type does he fancy? Someone like Jian Sisi?”

“Miss, I need to get back to work. Do you have any other questions or need further assistance?” the girl said with a smile, preferring not to elaborate further.

Xu Chaomu pouted and shrugged, “No, you go ahead.”

She was in a good mood today, after flirting with the girls and teasing the handsome guy, her spirits were even higher.

The thought of working at Shen Group in the future did excite her.

Shen Group was the most powerful group in C City, and a leader in the industry. When she would come to work there, she definitely planned to make a good impression.

She continued her visit in the lobby, and at that moment, she suddenly received a phone call.

A call from Paris.

“Chaomu, are you there?”

“Fenfen, is that you? Aren’t you in class today?”

“I don’t have classes today. By the way, weren’t you looking for the surveillance footage from the Grand Paris Hotel?”

“Any progress?”

“I asked a senior student to help, although it’s a bit difficult because the surveillance footage is from a while back and may not be available anymore.”

“The best would be to find the footage, but if not, I also need the guest list of check-ins for that day.”

“Chaomu, those are private information,” she lowered her voice on the other end.

“Fenfen… don’t you want the signature of the movie star? I can pull some strings. Oh, and about the tickets for the Parisian high society gathering, I seem to have one. Oh, I remember now, the boy you like enjoys chess, right? I happen to know a chess master, and he has a chess book…” Xu Chaomu went on nonchalantly.

“No need to say more! I’ll get the video material for you within a week!”

“Fenfen, I knew you were the most capable.”

“Wait, Chaomu, you can really get the signatures and all that? Do you have the means?”

“Within a week, I’ll send it to you,” Xu Chaomu said confidently.

“Deal, it’s a trade then.”

“Damn, Fenfen, are we good sisters or not?! I was planning to give these to you as a gift out of our deep friendship.”

“Chaomu…” a sweet, sugary voice came through, “With a material foundation, our friendship grows even stronger… oh… oh… oh…”

“Get lost!”

On the other end, she laughed so hard her stomach hurt. They talked on the phone for quite a while, until Xu Chaomu got hungry and remembered it was time for lunch.

Signature, admission ticket, chess book – where was she going to find all that?

She would need to charm Shen Chi again?

But considering the video, sacrificing a bit of charm… was not entirely out of the question.

If she could obtain the video, if she could confirm the child was Shen Chi’s, she would have something to hold over him in the future.

That evening, she personally made a bowl of tomato and egg soup.

She couldn’t be blamed; it was the only thing she knew how to make.

During her five years in Paris, she either ate in the school cafeteria or had meals made by Nie Chenglang, rarely cooking for herself.

Shen Chi didn’t work late that day and came home on time.

As soon as he entered, Xu Chaomu, who had been watching TV on the couch, sprang up, beaming with joy.

“President Shen, let me change your shoes.”

Xu Chaomu obediently brought a pair of slippers to him and squatted at his feet.

Shen Chi looked down at Xu Chaomu, who was squatting on the ground, with an expression that seemed to say he had had enough, but he was curious.

At that moment, Xu Chaomu was like a domesticated pet cat that had run over from the couch and squatted at his feet, gentle and well-behaved.

Xu Chaomu also looked up at him and smiled, “President Shen, please lift your foot.”

Of course, Shen Chi wasn’t going to lift his foot. He slowly squatted down to her level, and his long fingers lifted her chin.

“Haven’t been taking your medicine?” he asked with a smirk.

Based on Xu Chaomu’s usual temperament, she would have slapped his hand away and snapped, “You’re the one who hasn’t been taking your medicine. Your entire family hasn’t!”

But today she needed a favor, so she had to bow her head under someone else’s roof.

“Thank you for helping me out today,” Xu Chaomu said with a smile.

“Don’t mention it,” Shen Chi said in a deep voice, “Spill it, what do you fancy?”

“I fancy handsome guys. Can you get me one?” Xu Chaomu cooed, hooking one hand around his neck.

After acting coquettishly, she shuddered at her own behavior.

Shen Chi twitched a corner of his mouth and said coldly, “Stop that. You have three seconds to talk or you’ll miss your chance! One…”

“President Shen… don’t be so fierce… I just fancy you and think you work so hard every day; I want to take care of you… ”

“Take care? Fine, strip then.”

“What?” Xu Chaomu was taken aback. This was not going according to the script.

“How else do you take care if you don’t strip? Hurry up and strip.”

Shen Chi’s sharp eyes, like black onyx, were fixated on her, giving her no chance to dodge.

“I meant taking off your shoes…”

“Strip off your clothes and lie on the bed!” he commanded.

“Damn, Shen Chi, your mind is in the gutter! You’ve been watching too many quick broadcasts,” Xu Chaomu slapped his hand away, and stood up briskly, angry, “Go find someone else to take care of you!”

Now that seemed more like it.

Shen Chi also elegantly stood up, a hint of amusement on his face.

“Out with it, what caught your eye? Your husband will buy it for you.”

“I fancy good-looking guys, will you buy one for me?”

“If he’s handsomer than your husband, I’ll buy one,” Shen Chi said indifferently.

This man always had a way of discussing improper matters with a serious tone.

Xu Chaomu pouted, “I want the signed photo of the movie star!”

“That… ah…” Shen Chi sat back down on the couch, pondering for a moment.
