Chapter 308: Chapter 204: Endurance Value Acting Up

Good thing it was winter, and he was wearing thick clothes. Otherwise, Gao Yue’s little skirt might have been pierced right through!

Gao Yue’s startled cry snapped him out of it. Seeing their position, he was incredibly embarrassed. He quickly moved his hips away.

"Chen Xiao, your hand!"

’So that’s why I was standing so steadily just now,’ he thought. ’Turns out I was holding on tight!’

He pulled his hand out from her shirt collar, sniffed it, and caught a faint, milky scent.

’Pervert,’ Gao Yue cursed to herself, though she wasn’t actually repulsed.

She glanced at his pants, and her face instantly flushed. No wonder it had hurt a little just now. How could it be so exaggerated? Was he a donkey?

"Um, I didn’t do it on purpose. I just tripped by accident!"

Chen Xiao sat down, trying to hide his indelicate situation while apologizing.

Gao Yue shot him a look. ’Tripping was an accident, but was sticking your hand down my collar an accident, too?’

’And I suppose those dozen or so thrusts were also an accident?’

’It looks to me like you’re just playing innocent after taking advantage of me. You expect me to feel sorry for you?’

She and Chen Xiao were familiar with each other, but not *that* familiar. She couldn’t quite figure out his temperament.

She asked, "What would you like to drink?"

"An herbal tea, please. To cool down."

Gao Yue laughed. She knew what Chen Xiao meant and felt proud of her Charm.

Little did she know, this had nothing to do with her Charm. It was all his Endurance Value acting up.

She grabbed a red can of herbal tea, handed it to Chen Xiao, and then sat down across from him.

Chen Xiao took it, had a sip, glanced over at Gao Yue, and—SPIT~

He spat it all out!

Her skirt was angled right at him. The contrast between the snow-white of her skin and the bottomless, mysterious darkness within... ’Are you sure you’re not trying to mess with my head on purpose?’

Seeing his reaction, Gao Yue immediately understood and quickly crossed her knees, shifting to sit sideways.

Even so, her fair, glowing legs still made it impossible for Chen Xiao to calm down.

’Who am I? What did I come here for?’ He had completely forgotten.

He stood up, turned his back to Gao Yue, and deliberately started a new topic, "Your office is quite nice, it’s just missing a break room!"

Gao Yue also rose, her breath fragrant as she spoke beside him, "Is it really that important? A sofa can basically serve all the functions of a break room, can’t it?"

With that one sentence, she successfully reawakened the memories from when Chen Xiao had first entered the room.

An evil thought even crossed his mind.

’Don’t provoke me, little lady. If I really lose control, I’ll pin you down and make you scream all afternoon until your voice is raw!’

He wasn’t that close to Gao Yue yet. If it had been Xu Wu today, he probably would have already made his move.

But Xu Wu was clearly much more reserved than Gao Yue. He called Feng Feifei "Demon Feng," but Gao Yue was the real little demon.

The key was that she released her Charm in just the right amounts, always managing to stir his most primal heartbeat.

Unlike Qiao Xin’s bold aggressiveness or Ma Jing’s slight shyness, she was the type to play hard to get—naturally, seductively flirtatious to the bone.

"Besides, we also have the presidential suite. If you’d like, I can take you to experience them all, one by one!"

’Still teasing me. You better think about the consequences!’ Chen Xiao thought viciously, but his actions were cowardly. He had too many reservations.

In reality, he couldn’t really blame Gao Yue for teasing him.

The moment he walked in, he performed the "Old Ox Pushes the Cart," followed by "Releasing a Crane to Catch a Dragon," and then the "Pointing Spear Technique."

The poor girl didn’t do a thing and even let him have the first three moves.

You can’t just bully someone and then act as if nothing happened, can you? Isn’t that what a scumbag would do?

"Gao Yue, let’s talk about work!"

"I am talking about work. President Chen, since this is your first time here, I meant I could show you the different classes of guest rooms in the hotel!"

"Uh..." ’Did I misunderstand?’

"No need. I’m not interested in those. It’s not like I’m staying here!"

Gao Yue burst out laughing. "Of course you wouldn’t dare get a room here with someone. Are you afraid I’ll tell Xu Wu?"

"How could you think so poorly of me? Do I seem like that kind of person?"

"I wasn’t sure before, but after today, I’d say the line is very blurry!"

’So much for a lifetime of good reputation, all ruined in an instant!’

"The main reason I came today was to see if you’re facing any difficulties, and also to check on the renovation progress of the Junxiao Lakefront CBD Center."

"We have no difficulties. As for the Junxiao Lakefront CBD Center, I’ve already passed along the design concepts you and President Xu provided and had them hire top-tier designers to refine and polish them."

Chen Xiao nodded, but then Gao Yue piped up again, "Don’t worry, they’ll definitely decorate your grand harem beautifully!"

"What grand harem? That’s my office!"

"Yes, your office!"

Gao Yue repeated sarcastically, heavily emphasizing the word. The facilities on the top floor had everything! They were more comprehensive than the furnishings in a private villa.

The first time she saw the design plans, the image that popped into her head was of Chen Xiao and Xu Wu getting up to no good in broad daylight...

Chen Xiao knew it was pointless to explain, so he didn’t bother. ’The innocent need no defense.’

He GULPED down the rest of his herbal tea in a few swallows. Gao Yue brewed him another cup of tea and placed it in front of him. Whether it was intentional or not, she bent over quite far.

He could see the limitless scenery down her collar, and she even swayed back and forth a little mischievously. Chen Xiao almost subconsciously reached out to steady her.

’I need to come here less often in the future. This isn’t a president’s office, it’s a siren’s den!’

’If she keeps teasing me like this, I’ll definitely slip up within three visits!’

"You go handle your work. I’ll just sit here for a bit and prepare some materials."

He sent Gao Yue away to handle her tasks so he could think about the 7:30 Xiangzi event tonight.

Although it was just a minor online livestream, since he was participating, he wanted to be well-prepared.

It was a discussion about the entire new energy vehicle industry, and a chance to gather some cutting-edge information from automobile circles.

He felt it was very meaningful. The industries he was currently involved in, whether the commercial real estate or retail sectors, would have a hard time reaching a trillion-plus scale. But new energy vehicles could, and their potential was enormous.

This sector was destined to be the one he and Xu Wu would invest the most energy in.

He made a quick call to Jin Wuxian beforehand. Jin Wuxian repeatedly stressed, "Boss, I’m begging you, please stop speaking up for Shanyun Auto!"
