Chapter 3

My fingers paused on my buttons, and then I rolled my eyes with practiced ease.

“You’ve only been here once, and you’re already making requests of me…”

“Ten times,” he corrected.

“…That is not what I meant.”

After I rejected him, Zhou Xi’s beautiful ragdoll-cat face immediately wilted.

Wrinkling his nose, he accused me, “Sis, you’re the one who said you didn’t want more.”

That comprehension ability.

I was truly impressed.

If I had not met him at a university, I would have suspected he had never gone to school.

Wait.

That did not mean he studied there.

I asked Zhou Xi, “Are you from A University?”

Zhou Xi shook his head honestly. “No.”

I knew it!

I casually dangled a promise. “In a couple of years, I’ll send you abroad to gild your resume.”

Zhou Xi looked as if he wanted to speak but stopped himself.

“Sis, I don’t want to study.”

I know, I know. You only want to enter the entertainment industry.

I waved my hand, signaling him to stop. I had a meeting to attend.

I got into the car where Secretary Wang had long been waiting.

Then I turned for a glance.

Zhou Xi was leaning over the balcony, waving goodbye to me.

A head of messy hair, a face both innocent and seductive.

Sunlight spilled over his face, making him look like Cupid from Greek mythology.

Likewise not wearing pants.

Impressive.

“Sis, come back early.”

I covered my forehead and smiled bitterly.

Absolutely no one could be allowed to know I was keeping this type.

While reading documents, I said, “Secretary Wang, find a few spring limited editions and send them over to him.”

He was not suited to dressing like Shi Jin, all slender and pure.

If he wore fake goods all day, he would be disgracing me.

Secretary Wang froze for a moment, then said yes.

After the meeting ended.

After I dealt with a crowd of old fossils.

I was utterly exhausted and collapsed into my office chair.

I had not been that tired before, but today I was especially worn out.

Probably because I had not slept last night.

The Cui Family was like most wealthy families.

My father and mother were joined by a marriage alliance, each playing their own games.

Their relationship was actually quite good.

Otherwise, they would not have had the three of us siblings.

An idiot older brother, a love-brained younger sister, and perfect me.

From birth, my life had been arranged.

If I wanted more, I had to fight for it myself.

I fought for it.

But was this truly what I wanted…

“Sis.”

A chill brushed my hip.

Before my life reflections were over, I saw a head pop out from under the desk.

“…What are you doing?”

Zhou Xi kissed my thigh.

I looked at him expressionlessly.

For once, that model-like face of Zhou Xi’s flushed red.

He was somewhat shy, but what he said was shocking.

“I just learned this this afternoon. I heard CEOs and secretaries all like playing this way.”

Such a self-motivated little kept man.

Zhou Xi thought I had agreed.

Outside the window, the white clouds drifted in speechless silence.

Was I keeping him, or was he keeping me?

He truly wanted to enter the entertainment industry.

Three hours later, Secretary Wang called my internal line.

“CEO Cui, Mr. Shi is here.”
