GLIHBN Chapter 70
by VolareSince confirming their relationship, this was the first time Su Shi brought Chi Ye to the Studio.
Many people at the Studio recognized Chi Ye, especially Little Jie, who was already very familiar with him and had even added him as a friend privately.
Upon arriving at the office, Su Shi instantly switched to work mode, a stark contrast to how he was at home. In Chi Ye’s eyes, Su Shi was practically glowing.
While working, Su Shi didn’t forget to look up at Chi Ye. “Why are you staring at me? Doesn’t your club have activities?”
“Mm,” Chi Ye hummed in agreement, but he still didn’t avert his gaze, rendering the laptop on his lap useless.
Su Shi cleared his throat softly. “Don’t look at me like that; it’s distracting.”
“Alright.”
Chi Ye finally shifted his focus, his fingers flying across the keyboard, effortlessly conjuring a long string of code.
Now it was Su Shi’s turn to be distracted.
*My boyfriend is so handsome.* Calm down, calm down, work is important.
Knock, knock.
Little Jie walked in from outside to report on work to Su Shi.
After listening, Su Shi nodded. “Okay, go ahead and do it.”
After Little Jie left, Chi Ye stood up and walked to Su Shi’s side, taking his left hand and holding it in his own. The platinum and diamond ring on Su Shi’s middle finger sparkled dazzlingly.
Chi Ye looked at it intently, as if admiring a treasure.
Su Shi proactively explained, “I wear it on my ring finger at home and on my middle finger when I’m out.”
Chi Ye touched the ring with his finger. “It’s a little tight.”
“No, I think it’s fine.”
Chi Ye kissed Su Shi’s ring and softly asked, “Do you like it?”
“I like it.”
The office door wasn’t closed tightly, and Little Jie, returning to close it, happened to catch a glimpse of this scene, and couldn’t help but gasp.
Oh my god, what did he just witness?
What are the boss and Chi Ye doing?
Chi Ye’s peripheral vision didn’t miss the situation at the door, and he secretly curled the corners of his lips into a smile.
Chi Ye went to the pantry to make coffee for Su Shi and bumped into Little Jie, Little Jie immediately grabbed Chi Ye, his eyes shining. “Chi Ye, are you and Su Shi like I think you are?”
Chi Ye looked at Little Jie and smiled mysteriously at the other person’s expectant gaze. “What did he say?”
Little Jie shook his head like a rattle. “He hasn’t said anything.”
Chi Ye gave a faint “Oh.” “Then go ask him, I can’t say.”
These words seemed to say nothing, but in fact, they said everything. Little Jie seemed to taste a cup of West Lake Dragon Well tea.
The fact is, breaking news: Su Shi has a new boyfriend!
“Your coffee.” Chi Ye placed the coffee in front of Su Shi.
Su Shi tapped the table twice with his finger. “Okay, thank you.”
Chi Ye hesitated and said, “I ran into Little Jie in the pantry just now. He seems to have figured something out and asked about our relationship.”
Su Shi raised his head to look at Chi Ye. “What did you say?”
Chi Ye looked a little embarrassed. “I didn’t say anything.”
Su Shi smiled. “It’s okay, you can say it. It’s not like we’re doing something shameful.”
“Really?” Chi Ye’s eyes shone with light.
“Of course.” Su Shi patted his chest. “Your brother here never hides anything.”
*I’ll give you a title,* Su Shi said silently in his heart.
This was the answer Chi Ye had dreamed of. He lowered his head and touched Su Shi’s nose with his own. “Brother, you’re so great.”
Su Shi was just joking, but he didn’t expect Chi Ye to actually call him “brother,” giving Su Shi goosebumps all over his body.
Too unfair.
Chi Ye rubbed his burning ears, knowingly asking, “Why are your ears red?”
“Maybe it’s hot.” Su Shi tried to cover it up and fanned himself with a folder. “I’m wearing too many clothes today.”
Two pieces of clothing, not much. Chi Ye saw through him but didn’t expose him, smiling and saying, “Mm, it’s a little hot.”
When Little Jie came in to find Su Shi again, taking advantage of Chi Ye’s absence, Su Shi said, “That’s right, Chi Ye and I are in that kind of relationship. No need to inquire.”
Little Jie took a deep breath, pretending to be calm. “Okay, Su Shi.” In reality, he was running wild inside.
Ahhh, the boss is so manly.
And Chi Ye’s pillow talk is so effective. It’s a good thing he didn’t say anything bad.
Chi Ye stayed at Su Shi’s studio for most of the day. Some people, unaware of the situation, talked about Xu Chongming’s previous treat of afternoon tea, praising Xu Chongming in their words.
After listening, Chi Ye smiled faintly.
Is that so? There was such a thing?
When Little Jie returned after finishing his errands, a sumptuous afternoon tea was delivered to the office like a stream of cars.
What’s going on?
Little Jie grabbed someone and asked.
The person said that Chi Ye was treating everyone and also mentioned the previous conversation.
Little Jie couldn’t help but sweat, thinking, *You guys should be more careful.*
On the surface, this is winning people’s hearts, but in reality, it’s a disguised form of male competition.
Unexpectedly, Chi Ye is young, but his methods are quite sophisticated.
After Su Shi knew about this, he didn’t express any opinion. He just held Chi Ye’s hand and said, “Boyfriend, you’ve spent too much.”
Chi Ye said nonchalantly, “It’s just small money.”
Su Shi received a call from an unfamiliar number. The other party claimed to be Assistant Li, saying that their company had an exhibition they were interested in collaborating with Su Shi’s studio on, asking if he had time to come out and discuss the details.
Su Shi had no special arrangements tonight and was quite interested in the exhibition the other party mentioned, so he agreed to meet.
The two parties agreed to meet at a restaurant.
Chi Ye drove Su Shi’s car to drop Su Shi off at his destination, telling Su Shi to call him after he finished eating and he would come pick him up.
Su Shi wanted to say, “Why bother with such a roundabout way?” Chi Ye should have just gone home, and he could have driven over himself, eaten, and gone straight back.
But being in a relationship never fears trouble. Since Chi Ye was willing to go through such trouble, he would gladly accept it.
Su Shi hummed in agreement. “I’m leaving, don’t miss me too much.”
Chi Ye watched Su Shi walk inside before driving away. Passing the parking lot, he happened to see a familiar car: Xu Chongming’s.
Chi Ye’s temples throbbed, and a bad premonition instantly surged into his mind.
Su Shi followed the waiter to the private room, only to see that Xu Chongming was sitting inside.
Xu Chongming stood up when he saw Su Shi, his eyes burning. “Su Shi.”
Not seeing a second person in the private room, Su Shi turned to leave. “Sorry, I might have gone to the wrong place.”
“You didn’t go to the wrong place. Assistant Li is from our company.”
Su Shi narrowed his eyes slightly. “Why did you go to so much trouble to trick me into coming out?”
Hearing Su Shi use the word “trick,” Xu Chongming smiled wryly. “Would you have met me otherwise?”
Xu Chongming walked over and pulled out the chair closest to Su Shi. “Sit down.”
Su Shi didn’t move. “Say what you need to say quickly, I’m in a hurry to go back.”
*In a hurry to go back to find Chi Ye?* These words deeply pierced Xu Chongming’s heart. “Can’t you even sit down and have a meal with me?”
Su Shi was like a steel plate, not giving Xu Chongming any hope. “There’s no need.”
Xu Chongming sighed. “I thought we were at least still friends.”
Su Shi wasn’t a magnanimous person and couldn’t bring himself to still be friends with Xu Chongming. “Don’t do such boring things again in the future.”
“Then, let’s talk about Chi Ye.”
When Xu Chongming said these words, Su Shi’s body visibly stiffened. Xu Chongming took advantage of this to push him by the shoulders and sit him down on the chair.
