Chapter 108 The Charming Boyfriend
When Zheng Xiaoguang was about to agree to let Chen Bishi meet Bluegreen-Clad, Chen Bishi’s supervisor shouted to her, “Bishi, give me the document you prepared yesterday.”
Chen Bishi had no choice but to take the documents. Before her departure, she mumbled, “Wait for me, Xiaoguang. I will come back soon. You have to my curiosity and let me meet your boyfriend.”
When Chen Bishi walked away, Yang Sisi glared at Zheng Xiaoguang and complained. “Look at you. Why did you refuse to give Xiangyang a chance? If you did, you would never have such a trouble. She bullies you as you’re single. Why didn’t you leave just now?”
“Em~ As I’ve decided to marry Bluegreen-Clad as early as possible, I’d better tell her the truth.”
With this in mind, Zheng Xiaoguang swallowed hard before saying, “But, Sisi, I do have a boyfriend now, and he’s going to pick me up after work.”
“What? When did you sneakingly find a boyfriend? And you hide this from me until now!” Yang Sisi stared at Zheng Xiaoguang in disbelief for three seconds. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and blinked at Zheng Xiaoguang while asking, “Is he Xiangyang?”
Zheng Xiaoguang shook her head and said, “No, not him.”
Yang Sisi rolled her eyes and asked, “Then who is he?”
“You’ll know if you go downstairs with me now,” Zheng Xiaoguang replied smilingly.
Soon enough, Zheng Xiaoguang walked out of the company with Yang Sisi who was highly suspicious and Chen Bishi who did not believe that Zheng Xiaoguang had a boyfriend at all.
At that time, Bluegreen-Clad was standing beside his car and waiting for Zheng Xiaoguang with a bouquet of champagne roses in hand.
“Xiaoguang!” Upon seeing her, he walked toward her while holding the roses with both hands
She had never expected him to come with roses in hand. Her cheeks flushed as she received the roses. She bashfully introduced her friend to him. “Let me introduce you to my friend Yang Sisi. She’s my bestie.”
She pointed at Chen Bishi and continued, “She’s my colleague, Chen Bishi.”
Chen Bishi stared at Bluegreen-Clad’s handsome face and his expensive watch on the wrist in disbelief. Upon hearing Zheng Xiaoguang introducing her to the young man, she finally recovered from the shock and asked, “Are you Xiaoguang’s boyfriend?”
Bluegreen-Clad nodded and replied, “Yes, I’m Xiaoguang’s boyfriend. Nice to meet you. Thank you for taking care of Xiaoguang in the company.”
Zheng Xiaoguang chuckled and said, “Hee-hee, we do take care of each other.”
“You have such a cute boyfriend, Xiaoguang. You should give us a treat,” Chen Bishi interjected.
Yang Sisi threw an impatient glance at Chen Bishi and asked, “Don’t you have to work overtime today?”
Chen Bishi retorted, “I’ve already asked Secretary Zheng to help me with my work. I don’t have to work overtime today.”
“But didn’t you say that you have a date tonight?” Zheng Xiaoguang asked flatly.
“That’s not so important as this thing, dear. This is for you.” Chen Bishi’s attitude toward Zheng Xiaoguang suddenly changed. She took her arm and acted as if they were besties. She smilingly looked at Bluegreen-Clad and asked, “Hi, handsome. What do you say? Do you agree to give us a treat?”
Bluegreen-Clad raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s my pleasure to give you girls a treat.”
Zheng Xiaoguang had planned to take only Yang Sisi to have dinner with them and never expected Chen Bishi to ask to join them. Although she did not want to have dinner together with Chen Bishi, she still said, “Well, let’s dine together.”
As such, Bluegreen-Clad took the three of them to the restaurant that he had booked.
The atmosphere in this restaurant was quite nice, but this place was only dimly lit. When they sat down, Bluegreen-Clad politely handed the menu to Zheng Xiaoguang.
Zheng Xiaoguang and Yang Sisi quickly decided what to eat. After reading the menu for a long time, Chen Bishi pointed at the creamy pudding and asked, “Cool dude, can you help me to ask the restaurant whether they can make low-sugar pudding. I’m worried that this pudding has lots of calories. I’m practicing yoga now. I need to keep fit.”
Upon hearing that, Yang Sisi twitched her mouth. As this place was dimly lit, she sneakingly approached Zheng Xiaoguang to whisper beside her ear, “Look at her. ‘I’m practicing yoga now.’ She just wants to show off her good figure and hear some compliments.”
Zheng Xiaoguang frowned slightly but still remained silent when she noticed that Chen Bishi deliberately placed her hand on her chest.
Chen Bishi was looking forward to hearing Bluegreen-Clad’s reply, but he just said flatly, “Uhm.”
Upon noticing that he ignored Chen Bishi, Zheng Xiaoguang could not help but smile slightly.
Chen Bishi was not discouraged and continued to ask, “What do you do for a living, handsome?”
Bluegreen-Clad raised his eyebrows and replied, “I’m running a company of my own.”
“Wow, you own a company at such a young age!” Chen Bishi could not help but lean forward. By doing so, she displayed her cleavage as she wore a revealing dress. Under the dim light, she looked quite seductive. “You’re such a handsome and capable young man. You must have many suitors. What do you like about Xiaoguang?” asked she.
Bluegreen-Clad turned to look at Zheng Xiaoguang and replied after a moment of thought. “I don’t know.”
Upon hearing that, Chen Bishi could not help but smile.
To her surprise, Bluegreen-Clad added the next moment, “I just think that she’s perfect.”
Zheng Xiaoguang, who had been irritated by Chen Bishi’s words a moment ago, chuckled upon hearing that. “Stop it,” she said bashfully.
Bluegreen-Clad pinched her face and said, “But I really like you.”
Upon seeing that they were so close, Chen Bishi felt discouraged and casually ticked a few dishes before puting the menu down.
When the waiter took their orders away, Yang Sisi teased Zheng Xiaoguang, “You’re really good at hiding your feelings. You have such a cute boyfriend and you hide this thing from me until today.”
Zheng Xiaoguang chuckled and replied, “I never planned to hide this from you. It’s just that he has been busy with his work recently. I really don’t have a chance to introduce him to you until today.”
“Are you complaining that I’ve been too busy recently?” Bluegreen-Clad touched her head and continued, “I’ll spend more time with you in the future.”
Yang Sisi sighed. “Tut-tut, you just can’t stop courting envy. I should’ve brought my husband here.”
The three of them chatted gleefully and gradually snubbed Chen Bishi.
Chen Bishi felt that she was completely left out and kept stirring her coffee. Suddenly, she lowered her head to check the things in her handbag before saying, “Sigh, I seem to have left my cellphone in your car, handsome.”
“What does your cellphone look like? I’ll help you find it,” Bluegreen-Clad replied calmly.
Chen Bishi twitched her lips and said, “Well, let’s go to look for it together.”
Bluegreen-Clad looked at Zheng Xiaoguang with inquiring eyes.
Zheng Xiaoguang nodded and said, “Go to find it together now and come back soon.”
Upon hearing that, Bluegreen-Clad said, “Alright.” After that, he walked out of the restaurant together with Chen Bishi.
When they found his car, Bluegreen-Clad opened the door with his key. Chen Bishi anxiously stuck her head into the back of the car and looked around but failed to find her cellphone.
She looked at him helplessly and said, “Can you lend me your phone for a moment? I want to call myself to find out where my phone is.”
