My Life with Narration-Chapter 334 - 331: Clingy Su He
What kind of nonsense is this about keeping secrets? Is this really the quality of someone who should be tight-lipped?
The moment he heard the narration, Su Qing realized he might have done something foolish, but it was already too late for regrets.
He couldn’t just backtrack and say Shen Yi wasn’t his aunt, though fortunately, there was a suitable reason; pulling strings at least sounds better than being a freeloader. So after thinking it over, he decided not to correct it.
After work in the evening, Su Qing drove steadily on the road. By now, he was quite proficient at driving this Mercedes worth over two million, unlike before when he was nervous about any potential scratches.
Firstly, he had driven a lot more and was familiar with its performance, and secondly, he was now wealthy enough to afford any repair costs.
Shen Yi, sitting in the passenger seat, leisurely enjoyed the post-work time.
This week, Su Qing had been quite quiet, staying at the company as her secretary, and over time, she looked much better than before, with her skin appearing more nourished.
This is the benefit of having someone like him around, always keeping her in high spirits. Plus, with the recent company crisis over and most of her work handled, she wasn’t as busy as before and felt much more relaxed.
"Why do you keep frowning? Are you tired from work? Do you want me to give you a break tomorrow?" Shen Yi asked softly, noticing his slight frown.
Work is work, and after work is after work. To avoid her power bank going on strike, she understood him well.
"It’s not that, it’s just that I’ve become your secretary recently, and there has been a lot of gossip at the company," Su Qing replied without turning his head.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi was initially stunned, then her lips curved up slightly as she gently chuckled, "Are they saying that I’m having a secret affair with my male secretary?"
Su Qing was shocked, "How did you know that? Who told you?"
These days, Shen Yi had been in his line of sight the entire time, with department leaders reporting work while he was present; no one had actually said anything. He couldn’t understand how Shen Yi had found out.
After all, there is an information gap between the boss and the employees.
Simply put, the thoughts among employees can’t be fully known by the boss, and sometimes when there is dissatisfaction among staff, the boss may not even realize why. Similarly, some decisions made by the boss may not be understood by the employees.
But a boss has their methods, like having a few trusted insiders among the employees to gather information. Previously, this insider was Deng Jie, but now this insider is himself. So, since he hadn’t told her, how did Shen Yi know?
Upon hearing his question, Shen Yi couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh lightly, "Is it that hard to guess? A female boss with a young male secretary, not to mention I’m naturally beautiful, and the two of us alone in a room—does that need guessing?"
Su Qing: ...
"You’re really something as the boss, not missing the chance to flatter yourself even amidst rumors!"
"Nonsense, I also complimented you just now, didn’t I? And besides, don’t you think I’m attractive?"
As she spoke, Shen Yi narrowed her eyes slightly, and Su Qing immediately sensed a hint of danger, promptly shutting his mouth.
Men, silence is golden.
Seeing this, Shen Yi couldn’t help but burst into laughter and then looked out the window.
She had chosen Su Qing as her secretary, fully aware of the potential gossip, but so what? She didn’t care. She was the boss—if she had to worry about others’ opinions about everything, what was the point of being a boss?
The key point is, she’s unmarried, and Su Qing doesn’t have a girlfriend either. What’s the matter with two single people being together? It’s not against the rules.
Plus, with her current status, why should she feel obliged to date a successful man in his forties?
All men know that with wealth, they can find a younger and prettier girl, so why couldn’t she find a younger guy?
No matter what others may say, she was quite happy.
Before long, the two of them drove back to the residential area.
The moment the car stopped, his day’s work had come to an end.
They took the elevator upstairs, and Shen Yi naturally headed straight to his door.
"By the way, hasn’t Auntie shown up for the past few days? Did she give up?" Shen Yi asked suddenly.
As soon as she finished speaking, a narration echoed in Su Qing’s mind.
[The rebellious mother has never given up; she only sent her pretentious sister to gather intel instead.]
Just as the narration ended, his hand coincidentally opened the door.
The next second, a familiar voice came from inside the room:
"Brother~~ you’re back. Your sister came to visit you~"
"Oh~ isn’t this sister-in-law, you look even prettier after half a month, I really like it!"
The two of them: ...
Su He transformed into a sticky bug and lunged forward, trying to give the two a big hug, but her forehead was pressed against, preventing her from moving any closer.
"Stop it, when did you come back, and... why are you here?" Su Qing asked calmly.
Seeing that she couldn’t get what she wanted from him, Su He looked towards Shen Yi.
"Sister-in-law~~~ look at my brother, see how he treats his own sister. Poor me, not welcomed at home, and getting cold shoulders here with my brother too. Fine, fine, it’s my fault for being disliked~"
Hmm, that delicate flaunting was getting more genuine; hopefully, she would keep talking like this even after going to college.
Though Su Qing could ignore this drama queen, Shen Yi couldn’t; they were still in the ’feelings ascension period’.
She pulled Su He over: "Oh my, oh my, where has little He been playing? You seem a bit tanned. Luckily, I have some good skincare products to share with you!"
Hearing this, Su He instinctively touched her face. Despite taking precautions, after spending half a month out in the summer, it was no surprise she’d tanned a bit.
"I’ve been everywhere, to the beach, and then a trip to Jiangnan Suzhou, took lots of pictures. Came back today to visit sister-in-law, and brought gifts for you both!" Su He was a master at flattery, already well-versed in pleasing others.
As for gifts, they were merely souvenirs bought from small stalls at her travel destinations. Shen Yi received a wooden hairpin, and Su Qing got a roughly crafted bracelet, likely unprocessed.
However, despite this, Shen Yi happily accepted them. After all, it’s the thought that counts.
Besides, what expensive gifts can you expect from a student?
On the sofa, Su Qing was instinctively playing with the bracelet made from some kind of fruit kernel, while saying:
"Why aren’t you staying home now that you’ve just come back? What are you doing here? Did Mom send you?"
Hearing this, Su He widened her eyes in surprise, "How did you know? Brother~ you didn’t install surveillance cameras at home, did you?"
Su Qing rolled his eyes, there were no surveillance cameras, but the narration had made it clear.
"Don’t I know you? If Mom didn’t promise you something good, would you come here in this scorching heat?"
At this, Su He giggled bashfully, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law, I heard from Mom that you and my brother are together, is it true?"
He was aware that their mom sent Su He here for this very reason, but contrary to his expectation, Shen Yi didn’t deny it and even added fuel to the fire.
"Together? Sort of, we’re together at the company too!"
"Really? That’s great!"
