Chapter 208 - : It’s Been Ages Since He Last Picked up Girls. Skewed Aesthetic Standards

Seeing the man acting this way, Fang Ziqian got so pissed that her stomach ached. However, there was nothing she could do.

She could only try her best to pick up her pace and settle the documents as fast as possible.

Unfortunately, there was a limit to a person’s capabilities.

Catwalk itself was an activity that put a heavy physical strain on a person’s body. Fang Ziqian was extremely exhausted from modeling on the runway for the entire day.

Even though she was trying her best to stay spirited, her eyelids kept getting heavier and heavier…

Bai Shixun played a few matches of mobile legends on his cell phone before he noticed something amiss.

After giving it some serious thought, he realized that the typing sounds had stopped!

Thus, he urged with his head still lowered as he looked at his cell phone, “Fang Ziqian, why are you slacking off? Hurry up and get back to work! You hear me?”

However, silence was all he could hear.

Bai Shixun raised his head to check on his assistant and found that Fang Ziqian seemed to have fallen asleep with her arms and head resting on the table.

“This woman really knows how to slack off, huh? How dare she fall asleep on the job?”

He stood up angrily and walked to the desk, then grabbed the clothes on her chest in an attempt to shake her awake.

“Fang Ziqian, wake the h*ll up!” The man yelled at her.

Fang Ziqian mumbled a little as she remained asleep.

He really wanted to shout at her again, but as his gaze suddenly fell onto the faint dark circles under the woman’s eyes, his voice stopped at the tip of his tongue.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Bai Shixun bent down and swooped Fang Ziqian up, as if she were a princess in a fairytale.

Then, he walked to the lounge next to his office.

“Fang Ziqian, don’t take me for a softhearted man. I’m doing this because I’m afraid that you’ll screw up the company’s important documents, especially when you’re not clear-headed!

“I’m even offering my exclusive lounge just so you can get a good rest. Where else can you find an employer as kind as me? I won’t go easy on you if you insist on going up against me in the future! You hear me?”

Bai Shixun unwillingly reprimanded her in a low voice.

Fang Ziqian’s head swayed a little.

Before Bai Shixun could receive an answer, he felt a sudden wetness on his neck.

He was briefly stunned. Then, his face quickly turned gloomy. “Fang Ziqian! Are you a pig? Did you just drool in your sleep?”

He laid her down on the lounge’s bed.

Just as he was about to leave, his gaze once again fell onto the woman who was fast asleep with her clothes disheveled. As if Bai Shixun had his acupoints struck, he realized he was stunned in place as his eyes stayed glued onto her.

Her especially pink lips that were parted ever so slightly jolted his memory on that one night from a month ago, where he got himself hung up on the taste of those lips.

As if he was bewitched by the sight of the woman on the bed, Bai Shixun gradually bent down and leaned toward her.

“Mmph… mmph…”

As Fang Ziqian squirmed her body uncomfortably, Bai Shixun finally came back to his senses.

Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!

He actually kissed this female secretary who did not have the slightest bit of femininity!

It must have been too long since he had last gone out there to pick up girls that his aesthetic standards for the opposite sex had dropped!

That was right, that must be the case!

Bai Shixun wore a complicated look on his face, as he covered his mouth and turned around, quickly exiting the lounge.

…

The next morning.

Luo Chenxi coaxed the little dumpling to eat her breakfast and sent her to kindergarten. Then, she rushed to the hospital to visit Lu Wenjun.

As she approached the ward entrance, she stopped the attending physician, Lin Sheng and asked, “Doctor Lin, how’s my mommy? Is she currently resting?”

Before Lin Sheng could answer, Lu Wenjun’s voice came from the ward.

“Chenxi, is that you? Hurry up and get in here!”

“I…” Luo Chenxi was shocked and her first reaction was to turn tail and run away. However, it was already too late.

Left without any other choice, she lowered her head and walked into the ward anxiously.

Lu Wenjun was a woman in her forties, who looked as if she was barely in her early thirties, so she looked more like a sister to Luo Chenxi.

Lu Wenjun immediately put on a plain face as she saw her daughter. “Not trying to hide anymore, huh? If I hadn’t overheard your conversation with Doctor Lin today, how long do you still plan on avoiding me? Did you really think that I’ve never noticed you coming here only when I was asleep?”

Luo Chenxi quickly forced a smile and said, “Mommy, you’ve misunderstood me. I’ve actually been really busy because of the Huafeng Competition, so our timing had always been off when I came to visit. That’s probably why it just so happens that you’re always asleep when I’m here…”

“Is that so?” Lu Wenjun coldly cut her off, “So it isn’t because you got married into the Mu Family as Luo Anguo had planned? And that you’ve been avoiding me because you’re afraid of me finding out?”

“Huh?” Luo Chenxi was stunned for a second, then she quickly shook her head and denied, “No… It’s not like that…”

However, as a mother, Lu Wenjun would never mistake the way her daughter’s mind worked. Thus, she understood everything from Luo Chenxi’s expression alone.

“You… you really…” Lu Wenjun was so angry that her face turned red. Then, she raised her hand to cover her chest. “Ouch!”
