The Beauty Is Seducing Me Again Chapter 42
byChapter 42 042 Xiaonuan with a guilty conscience
Nine o’clock in the morning.
On the table is breakfast prepared by aunt, freshly cooked milk, toast, fried eggs, bacon, and several exquisite Chinese pastries.
Shen Qingyu was sitting on the main seat early, drinking milk slowly and holding a tablet in his right hand, which was playing the morning financial news.
She wore a light-colored suit and skirt today, and her long hair was tied back, exposing her graceful neck line.
The cool aura throughout the body is not diminished, adding a bit more capable temperament.
About five minutes later, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.
Chen Xiaonuan yawned, her eyes were so sore, she couldn’t help but rub her eyes.
Hearing the movement, Shen Qingyu raised his eyes and frowned slightly.
I saw Chen Xiaonuan casually wearing an off-white sweater, his hair was a bit messy, and his steps were sloppy when he walked.The usual watery eyes were red after staying up late, with two dark circles hanging below them.
Shen Qingyu’s face was obviously unhappy, and she put down the tablet in her hand: “Didn’t you sleep well last night? Did you stay up late secretly?”
Hearing this, Chen Xiaonuan’s body stiffened and he was mostly awake.
Her eyes began to glance uncontrollably, but she didn’t dare to meet Shen Qingyu’s eyes. She groaned: “No, I didn’t stay up late, I just went to bed a little later. I won’t stay up late.”
That’s weird.
Not only did he stay up late, Chen Xiaonuan didn’t fall asleep until almost dawn.
Mainly in the second half of the night, as soon as she closed her eyes, Shen Qingyu’s figure was all in her mind and she couldn’t get rid of it.The heartbeat was beating fast, and the unreasonable thoughts that arose were like blaspheming the cold and proud gods, making Chen Xiaonuan panic and confused.
Shen Qingyu saw Chen Xiaonuan’s guilty reaction and was sure that Chen Xiaonuan stayed up very late last night.
She did not expose it, but reiterated: “Staying up late can cause neurasthenia, affect the cardiovascular system, reduce immunity, and increase the risk of autoimmune diseases.”
“You are not allowed to stay up late in the future, and you must ensure at least eight hours of sleep a day.”
“Hmm… Got it, sister.” Chen Xiaonuan responded vaguely, pulled out the chair, sat down, and started eating breakfast.
Chen Xiaonuan had something on her mind, so she almost quickly picked up a piece of toast and stuffed it into her mouth. She didn’t chew it much before swallowing it.
Maybe because she was about to choke, her eyes widened. She quickly picked up the milk next to her and drank more than half of the glass.
Chen Xiaonuan was so frightened that she almost died young.
Shen Qingyu saw Chen Xiaonuan devouring his food. Although it was a bit cute, the doubts in his heart deepened.
She felt that Chen Xiaonuan was very strange this morning.
This strangeness is definitely not a side effect of Chen Xiaonuan staying up late, but the panic caused by deliberately avoiding her.
“Eat slowly, no one will compete with you.” Shen Qingyu couldn’t help but remind her, with a hint of indulgence in her tone.
Chen Xiaonuan nodded “hmm” and ate the toast with his hands and mouth without stopping, and his chewing movements did not slow down at all.Afraid of being choked again, she chewed seven or eight times more than before, finishing the breakfast on the plate in three times, five times divided by two.
Chen Xiaonuan stood up suddenly. Because he moved too fast, the legs of the chair rubbed against the floor and made a harsh sound.
“Sister, I, I’m going to school!” Chen Xiaonuan didn’t dare to look at Shen Qingyu, she shouted as if she mustered up the courage. Without waiting for Shen Qingyu’s response, she hurriedly ran to the entrance and started to change her shoes in a hurry.
The whole figure was filled with the word “worry”.
Even Shen Qingyu, who had always been calm, couldn’t hold it any longer. She stood up and walked to Chen Xiaonuan.
“It’s not like there are no early classes in the schedule, so why are we rushing to school?”
“I, I…” Chen Xiaonuan hesitated for a long time, then an idea flashed in his mind and he continued, “The counselor called me and told me to go to school quickly. She has something important to see me.”
Shen Qingyu folded his arms and leaned slightly against the wall, watching Chen Xiaonuan change his shoes in a hurry, and narrowed his eyes: “Really?”
Chen Xiaonuan, who had lied, nodded in panic: “Yes, yes.”
“Then I’ll take you to school.”
“No!” Chen Xiaonuan subconsciously refused, then realized that her reaction was not normal, so she laughed a few times and said, “It’s very close to the school, I can go by myself.”
“Goodbye sister.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she opened the door and went out without hesitation.
Shen Qingyu was the only one left in the huge apartment. She stared at the closed entrance door and fell into a brief silence.
Shen Qingyu: “…”
It’s so early in the morning. Are you trying to get angry with her?
Shen Qingyu sat back at the dining table, but his brows were still slightly frowned, and the breakfast in front of him seemed to have lost its flavor.She picked up the milk glass and looked at the empty place next to it. There were still a few crumbs on the plate.
She put down the milk glass again.
It was obviously fine yesterday.
Before going to bed, Chen Xiaonuan was still happy to live in the apartment with her, and was chirping next to her.She also watched two episodes of the TV series with Chen Xiaonuan. Although the boring TV series was not nutritious at all, she also gave some insights at the right time.
Shen Qingyu couldn’t understand why Chen Xiaonuan could change drastically in just one night.
More like avoiding her.
Shen Qingyu thinks that he has insight into people’s hearts and is the best at controlling the overall situation, but when he meets Chen Xiaonuan, he is completely confused.
A sense of alienation without warning.
For the first time, she felt the feeling of being excluded, and she was very unhappy.
This feeling of being out of control made Shen Qingyu a little irritable.
The driver had been waiting next to the car early in the morning. When he saw Shen Qingyu, he quickly opened the back seat door.
“Mr. Shen, don’t you need to send the second lady off today?”
Shen Qingyu closed her eyes and uttered two words: “No need.”
The driver, who was very discerning, looked away, didn’t dare to ask any more questions, started the engine, and drove all the way to the group headquarters.
The car drove into the underground garage.
As soon as the car was parked, the driver trotted open the door and whispered, “Mr. Shen, we’ve arrived at the company.”
Shen Qingyu opened her eyes, and the displeasure in her eyes did not diminish at all. She got out of the car and said to the driver: “Second Miss is off from school in the afternoon. Call her in advance and take her back to the apartment.”
The driver hurriedly responded: “Yes, Mr. Shen.”
The elevator in the underground garage can only go to the first floor. After reaching the first floor, you have to walk to the other side. In the middle is the main hall on the first floor. Employees are required to open the gate and walk through the check-in gate before proceeding to the other four elevators to the various floors of Shen Group.
Along the way, employees kept saying hello to Shen Qingyu.
“Good morning, Mr. Shen.”
“Mr. Shen, good morning.”
“Good morning, Mr. Shen.”
“…”
Shen Qingyu had no expression on his face, only nodded slightly, and walked straight to the exclusive elevator.
The air pressure emanating from the whole body was lower than usual, which made several middle managers who wanted to come up to say hello and report on the work progress to subconsciously shrink their necks, and finally decided to wait until later to get into trouble.
In the exclusive elevator, the metal wall reflects Shen Qingyu’s stern face.She closed her eyes and tried to shift her attention to her work plan, but failed repeatedly.
The figure of Chen Xiaonuan fleeing in panic always jumped out inappropriately, disturbing her thoughts.
The elevator reaches the president’s office on the top floor.
The secretary-general was already waiting outside with a stack of documents. As soon as she saw Shen Qingyu, she immediately greeted her: “Good morning, Mr. Shen.”
“This has just been submitted by the planning department. It is a preliminary plan for the new commercial district project in the east of the city.”
“Yes.” Shen Qingyu took the file and walked into the office.
She sat down on the office chair, opened the plan, and began to browse quickly one by one.
The assistant brought a cup of hand-ground coffee, made according to Shen Qingyu’s taste, and the rich aroma of coffee filled the office.
Shen Qingyu took a sip of coffee and frowned. The assistant subconsciously thought that there was something wrong with the coffee made today and did not meet Shen Qingyu’s requirements.
The assistant was about to take away the coffee and planned to make a new cup.
Shen Qingyu closed the document in his hand with a snap and put it on the corner of his desk.
Shen Qingyu pressed the intercom phone and said in a cold voice: “Ask the director of the planning department to come up and see me.”
The secretary-general on the other end of the phone quickly replied: “Okay, Mr. Shen.”
Seeing that there was nothing to do with her, the assistant hurriedly walked out of the office.After walking out of the office, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t blame her. Mr. Shen was really scary today.
Not long after, the head of the planning department stood nervously at the door of the president’s office. After doing some mental preparation, he knocked on the door three times.
“Come in.”
The minister pushed open the door and entered with a professional smile on his face, but he was very nervous.
Without saying a word, Shen Qingyu directly picked up the top plan and began to point out the problems one by one.She didn’t speak fast and her voice was steady, but every word accurately hit the weak points of the plan.
“Who compiled the market research results? The research questions are incomplete, the survey group has problems, and the data deviation is too large.”
“The creative ideas are old-fashioned and mediocre. If you go to any business district, they are all the same.”
“Low feasibility and too idealistic.”
“There are no alternatives. Do you plan to sit back and wait for death if something goes wrong?”
“…”
This plan was almost criticized as useless.
Cold sweat broke out on the minister’s forehead, and he could only nod his head and record the key points.
Finally, Shen Qingyu put the documents on the table, raised his eyes to look at the minister who looked a little pale, and made his final conclusion.
“It’s full of loopholes and nothing new. Not only this one, but the other three plans are the same. Take it back and write a detailed plan again for me. The content must be innovative, don’t use these old things to perfunctory me.
“If none of the several plans are good enough to plan the Chengdong New Business District project, we might as well just pack up and leave.”
“The Shen Group doesn’t need useless people.”
“Yes, yes, Mr. Shen, we will start over immediately and ensure a new plan is produced by the end of the month.”The minister felt as if he had been granted amnesty and felt even more pressure. He almost fled the office with the folder in his arms.
The assistant and the secretary-general were sitting at the desk. When the minister came out with a sad look on his face, he felt very miserable for each other.
The assistant asked: “Sister Lu, have you been approved by the boss?”
“What do you think, do I look like I’m being praised?”The minister laughed miserably, feeling that his life was miserable in the morning.
The secretary-general couldn’t help but say: “You can tell at a glance that the boss’s face is not right today, and you are also unlucky.If you didn’t hand it in yesterday or tomorrow, if you choose to hand it in today, how can you avoid being criticized to death by the boss?”
The minister let out a long sigh: “It’s all fate.”
It was her bad luck to hit Mr. Shen’s gun today.
