Chapter 118: Picking up Mr. Shang from get off work

On the way from the hospital, Shen Chaoxi laughed countless times.

When passing an intersection and waiting for the traffic light, she thought of Yao Chun's words and laughed again.

She was driving Shang Jianghan's Maybach today, and with its impressive license plate, it attracted a lot of attention from passers-by. Even the traffic police on duty glanced over here several times.

Looking through the windshield, it seemed that there was only one person in the driver's seat, and I didn't know why this girl was grinning foolishly.

When the car entered the urban area, Shen Chaoxi suddenly changed direction and drove towards the Lianzhong Building.

Shang Jianghan resumed his official work today, and the two of them made an appointment to go out for a candlelight dinner in the evening.

She glanced at her wrist, which was the pink and white watch that Shang Jianghan had given her a few years ago. The time on it was not yet five o'clock.

Shen Chaoxi decided to go to the tea restaurant across the street to have a cup of afternoon tea and wait for Shang Jianghan to get off work.

Ten minutes later, the Maybach parked directly in the parking space in front of the tea restaurant. As soon as Shen Chaoxi got out of the car, a restaurant waiter came up to greet him warmly.

They don't recognize people, they only recognize cars.

Although the person who got out of the car was not Shang Jianghan, he still needed to be treated with caution since he could drive his car.

Shen Chaoxi nodded and thanked him, then chose the window seat on the second floor where he was last time.

"A glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and a piece of macaron cake, please."

After ordering the food, Shen Chaoxi turned on the computer and started writing the outline.

She is nearing the end of her latest short story and only needs to sort out the manuscripts every day.

Considering that she has had too many things going on recently, she wants to slow down the progress of starting the new book and make plans after the script of the play "Yun Feitian" is polished and she and Shang Jianghan have resolved their personal problems.

So, she has been very free recently.

The waiter quickly brought drinks and snacks.

Shen Chaoxi asked casually.

"What time does the group across the street usually get off work?"

"Are you asking about ordinary employees, middle or senior managers, or the boss?" The waitress had just been instructed to treat this person well, so she answered very seriously.

Shen Chaoxi found it funny, so he looked up and asked with a smile: "Is there any difference?"

The waiter's eyes lit up. He came into contact with all kinds of guests every day, mostly elite women. Most of them were capable and neat, and of course had exquisite makeup and were beautiful enough.

However, compared with the girl in front of him who was clean, had slightly raised eyebrows and a unique charm, she was really far behind.

"As long as the employees don't work overtime, they will leave their departments between 5:15 and 6 p.m., and department managers will generally leave after 8 p.m. depending on whether there are any emergency meetings."

"Then wouldn't the boss be even later?" Shen Chaoxi asked.

Remembering that the manager guessed that the other party might be Mr. Shang’s girlfriend, the waiter thought about it for a moment.

"It is said that the boss is a workaholic. It is hard to tell when he will get off work."

As they were talking, a well-dressed man crossed the street from the Lianzhong Building and customers started to come to the restaurant, so the waiter retreated.

Shen Chaoxi thought about it, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Shang Jianghan.

[Mr. Shang, I'm at the tea restaurant across the street, I'll pick you up after get off work.]

After typing these words, Shen Chaoxi felt that it was a bit overbearing. What if the other party was in a meeting? Wouldn't this force him to skip work?
Moreover, because of the title of Mr. Shang, she was almost kissed on the lips by the other party last night.

"Is it so hard to call you brother?" The man's teasing words were still lingering in her ears.

Shen Chaoxi deleted the previous line of words and typed again: [Call me when you are done and I will pick you up after get off work. ]

She simply omitted the title, so that she wouldn't be caught.

On second thought, what if Shang Jianghan’s male chauvinism takes over and he picks her up instead of her?
After a round of ideological struggle, Shen Chaoxi decided to call Yu Dong.

Yu Dong answered the call very quickly.

"Ms. Yao, are you looking for President Shang? He is in a meeting in the chairman's office. Do you need someone to transfer you?" Shen Chaoxi felt that Yu Dong was too polite to her and she couldn't adapt to it for a while.

"Nothing, when you meet Mr. Shang later, tell him that I'll be waiting for him to get off work at the tea restaurant across the street." Then, Shen Chaoxi hesitated for a moment and said, "If he has work to do, just tell him when he's done."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Chaoxi thought she had made herself clear, but less than ten minutes later she saw a well-dressed man standing in front of her.

"So fast?" Shen Chaoxi raised his hand to look at his watch.

Shang Jianghan followed her gaze to the fair white wrist and immediately recognized the watch he had given her five years ago.

A hint of tenderness flashed across the man's dark eyes.

Shang Jianghan was wearing a custom-made suit, with an upright posture and deep eyes. He looked down at the girl in front of him.

"We're not done yet. Come on, I'll take you upstairs."

Go to Lianzhong headquarters?

Shen Chaoxi instinctively wanted to refuse.

"No, you go and do your work. I'll write for a while and wait for you to get off work." What he meant was that he wanted to wait here.

There were many people drinking tea around, most of them were Lianzhong employees, and they would glance over from time to time with curious but unaware eyes.

"You'll have to wait up there as well. I have a small meeting. Wait for me in my office. Be quiet."

With such a huge Buddha standing here, Shen Chaoxi could imagine that she had become the target of public criticism.

She nodded. Shang Jianghan had already started to put away the laptop and papers on her desk without her having to do it herself.

Five minutes later, under the concealed yet naked gaze of everyone, Shen Chaoxi was brought into the president's office by Shang Jianghan.

It was my first time to come to such a place, and I was overwhelmed by the rigorous atmosphere of a large group.

The employees in the president's office have not yet left work and seem to be very busy.

Opening the glass door of the president's office, Shang Jianghan walked in first, followed by Shen Chaoxi.

The glass door closed automatically. Shen Chaoxi heard the sound of metal locks clicking. At the same time, a shadow loomed in front of her. She raised her head and put her pink lips into my mouth.

Shang Jianghan likes to surprise people the most, so Shen Chaoxi can only be forced to accept it.

When she was almost out of breath from the kiss, the man let go and fresh air was able to flow into her mouth.

The man's lips pressed against Shen Chaoxi's earlobe, and his warm breath numbed her whole body.

"The meeting will be over soon, wait for me here, call Yu Dong if you have anything."

"Ah."

Just now Shang Jianghan's phone kept ringing, and the voice on the other end was quite urgent.

Not long after Shang Jianghan left the office, a secretary came in and brought snacks to Shen Chaoxi.

Shen Chaoxi stood in the office observing the interior layout, then retracted his gaze and thanked the other party.

"I'm Zhao Panpan, the secretary of the Shang General Manager. Please tell me what you need."

Shen Chaoxi recalled that they had talked on the phone more than once, so she confirmed, "Are you Zhao Panpan? I'm Yao Ran."

Surprise immediately showed on Zhao Panpan's face. Even though she had been through many battles and met countless people by the president's side, it still took her some time to digest this information.

"That luggage? I'm so sorry, but do I think I've helped to do something good?" Zhao Panpan showed her lively side.

Shen Chaoxi could imagine that the scene in the other party's imagination was too exciting, so she hurried to fight back.

"I have known your Shang Zong for a long time. I didn't have this name before. He only found out later."

Zhao Panpan suppressed her curiosity and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't have the courage to spread the gossip about our president, but I will praise you for them. You are so beautiful!"

　I'm going to get a certificate for them tomorrow, how about that?
