Chapter 41 He Asks for It

“Du Xiaoxian!” The voice was pleasant and sexy, which immediately attracted a few girls nearby.

Du Xiaoxian stopped for a moment and then took a step back cautiously. She didn’t know the man who called her.

“It’s me!” The man took off his sunglasses. It turned out to be Shao Boqing.

He winked flirtatiously with his seductive eyes when speaking and won the heart of many girls around. They wowed and looked at him with admiration. Shao Boqing blinked at Du Xiaoxian with complacency.

Recognizing Shao Boqing, Du Xiaoxian stood still and greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Shao.”

“Come here.” Du Xiaoxian was standing on the side of the passenger seat, keeping quite a distance from his car. This made him feel embarrassed as they were now in public instead of the company and many pretty girls were staring at him curiously. They might assume that he had some disease that scared the little girl away.

In addition, Du Xiaoxian kept a poker face without a smile to him, which made him quite upset. She smiled at Gu Nianbin and Zhou Ting but seldom smiled at him. Sometimes he made jokes in the secretary’s office. Zhou Ting would burst into laughter while Du Xiaoxian looked dull and blank, as if she didn’t understand his humor. His complacency for amusing a beauty would then be wiped out by her dull expression immediately.

Shao Boqing had never known a person as boring as Du Xiaoxian before. But he felt even more boring when Du Xiaoxian didn’t show up in the company.

Now he ran into her and greeted her happily. But Du Xiaoxian’s reaction remained as cold as before. They had not seen each other for a few days. How could she not miss him at all? (Mr. Shao, do not embarrass yourself. She really didn’t miss you.)

He called her over, but Du Xiaoxian stood still without a word.

Parking was not allowed here, and therefore Shao Boqing had no choice but to shout, “Come on. I’ll give you a ride.”

Du Xiaoxian shook her head, “I’ll take the bus.”

She would rather take the bus than a limo. Besides, the driver was a dashing young man who was the prince charming of many women in this city. They would fight to get on his car, but Du Xiaoxian rejected such a rare opportunity.

After a moment of silence, Shao Boqing had to admit that he shouldn’t have called her today. He asked for it!

But he didn’t want to give up so readily. “Do you want to go to the company? Nianbin is there.” He had descended to using Gu Nianbin as an excuse. It was really humiliating for a playboy to use another man so as to attract a girl…

Du Xiaoxian’s eyes lit up when hearing the name of Gu Nianbin. Still, she shook her head and said, “No, thanks. The young master is very busy. I would bother him there.”

Shao Boqing continued to persuade, “Don’t be ridiculous. He will definitely be very happy to see you. Let’s go!”

At this moment, a traffic policeman came over, “Sir, no parking here. Please drive away immediately.”

Shao Boqing smiled obsequiously at the policeman, “OK, OK, I’m leaving.” He then shouted to Du Xiaoxian, “Let’s go; otherwise I will get fined.”

Du Xiaoxian took a guarded glance at the traffic policeman. She moved to the roadside and shook her head.

Shao Boqing rolled his eyes and said, “I will invite you and Nianbin to dinner and we can go to karaoke and have some night snacks. All on me.”

But Du Xiaoxian shook her head again. Even the traffic policeman couldn’t stand with it, “Sir, this is not the right way to court girls. It’s no use to beg them if they aren’t willing to go with you. Please leave right away, or I’ll give you a ticket!”

Shao Boqing was pissed off. How could he, a well-known playboy of City G, fail to date a girl and get scoffed by a traffic policeman? This was substantially a disgrace to his name.

The good-tempered Mr. Shao was enraged. He opened the car door, got out of the car, and went straight to Du Xiaoxian to drag her. He must sort things out!

The timid girl was undoubtedly frightened by him and struggled desperately to get rid of him. The policeman beside couldn’t bear her face of panic and went up to stop Shao Boqing with a stern look.

Actually, Shao Boqing had already regretted. He was seized with a sudden impulse just now to drag her. But her scared face made him feel quite sorry. He had been pretended to be a gentleman and restrained his true disposition with efforts. But now it was all in vain. The surrounding admiring sights had changed into scornful look and contemptuous whispering, “The man looks good, but behaves quite disgracefully. To stalk a little girl!”

“Indeed. A scumbag with decent appearance!”

“He shouldn’t be too confident in his face and his car. The little girl didn’t buy it.”

The traffic policeman had enough of him. He wrote out a ticket immediately and handed it to Shao Boqing. “Pay the fine within fifteen working days. Leave now, or the penalty will be doubled!”

The voice of the traffic policeman was harsh and authoritative. Shao Boqing was very depressed. He wanted to explain himself to Du Xiaoxian, but the little girl shrank back and trembled slightly. Her pitiful look made Shao Boqing worried about his destiny. If Gu Nianbin knew what had happened, he would be sent to Africa for marketing.

Shao Boqing got back into his car with the ticket, started the car and left. Du Xiaoxian watched the car leaving and thought to herself, “So this is a person who is neither good or bad in the eyes of the young master.”

Shao Boqing was in a foul mood when returning to the company. He did not flirt with the receptionists when passing through the lobby, which surprised them much.

One of them said, “GM Shao is not in a high mood.”

The other said, “Anything wrong with him?”

The third one laughed, “He must be rejected by a lady.”

The other two shook their heads at the same time, “Impossible. That’s absolutely impossible.”

One said, “He is the one that rejects countless women.”

Another one said, “As for flirting and courting girls, our GM Shao is a real player!”

The third one became speechless. GM Shao, do you know that you have such an image in everyone’s eyes…

Shao Boqing rushed into his office and asked his secretary Nina to make him a cup of coffee. A top student from a prestigious university, Nina was quite smart and capable. However, after working with GM Shao for years, she gradually became a trophy girl as well. She was in hot dresses and tried to please Shao Boqing every day. GM Shao did not ask much about the working abilities from her.

She served the coffee in a sexy way, but GM Shao was unusually silent and didn’t even look at her.

“Anything wrong? Are you tired?” Nina smiled coquettishly. She walked to his back and kneaded his shoulders attentively.

Shao Boqing narrowed his eyes and enjoyed her massage. But he still had no spirit and sighed heavily.

“Did anyone offend you? Tell me a name and I will fight for you!” Nina said.

Shao Boqing sighed with disappointment, “Never mind. It’s just a maid.”

Nina didn’t mean it either. What could she do with those who dared to offend her boss? However, when she heard the word ‘maid,’ she immediately picked up her spirits. How dare a maid offend and slight her boss? Nina was not strong physically, but she was really eloquent. She had been extremely cautious not to annoy her boss. How could a little maid dare to displease him? She grew angrier at such thoughts and thus exerted more strength on her hands. Shao Boqing turned around in surprise. Seeing her ferocious face, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Well, are you going to teach her a lesson for me?”

“Tell me her name and address,” Nina said angrily. “I will not come back if I don’t teach her a lesson.”

Shao Boqing took a sip of coffee and said, “She is nobody. But her patron is a little tricky.”

“I’m not an afraid. A little maid can’t have any outstanding background,” said Nina.

Shao Boqing took another sip of coffee and pointed at the door. “Get out of the room and turn right. You will find her patron in the room at the end of the corridor. Go to teach him a lesson.”

At the end of the corridor…is…”Boss, are you talking about the president?” Nina forced a smile.

Shao Boqing nodded with an alluring smile.

“Interesting,” said Nina.

“What do you mean by that?” Shao Boqing looked up at her.

“You must be joking, boss.” Nina wriggled to sit down in front of him. “How can our president be the patron of a little maid? You have been friends for more than ten years. He should be on your side.”

Shao Boqing curled his lips, “That’s why I feel sad … He betrayed me!”

“Never mind, boss.” Nina comforted him, “You still have me. I will never betray you.”

Shao Boqing continued to play the part of a victim and said dolefully, “Sooner or later, you will leave me too.”

“Absolutely no way. As long as you need me, I will stay with you.” Nina made a pledge.

Shao Boqing turned to her with an unsatisfactory look, “For what? Stay with me to kill time?”

Nina covered her lips and laughed, “No, no. You misunderstand. I will fulfill my duty as your assistant.”

“Come here.” Shao Boqing beckoned to Nina.

Nina chuckled. She stood up and walked up to him. Shao Boqing turned her around and slapped her on the butt. “Leave me alone now.”

Nina covered her butt and cried, “Hey! It hurts!”

“Alright, I’m fine now. Get down to your work.” Shao Boqing waved his hand to dismiss her. He picked up the coffee and drank it. Now he felt much better.

It was really pleasing to have an eye-catching and funny secretary!

Years ago, he interviewed Nina in person. She was considerate, good-looking, humorous and sophisticated. He did make the right choice. Nina was the perfect assistant.

Those who were as dumb as Gu Nianbin would stay close to Du Xiaoxian. He had Nina and a lot of beauties who can satisfy his vanity. There was really no need to sulk over Du Xiaoxian!

Shao Boqing crossed his legs and spun around in the chair. As usual, he felt boring before getting off work, and so he decided to tease Gu Nianbin.
