“Uncle, you’re terrible. Look what you’ve done; how am I supposed to face people? I still have to go to work today!” Jian Dan complained, pointing at the marks on her body.
“What’s stopping you from going to work? I think they look quite nice!” Chu Liyuan was quite satisfied with his handiwork.
It would decisively nip in the bud any inappropriate thoughts others might harbor toward his lass.
Because even a hint of impurity in someone else’s thoughts about his lass was intolerable to him.
“Nice?”
“Yeah! I think they’re especially nice!”
“Hmph~” Jian Dan simply ignored him, turned around, and entered the bathroom. After washing up, she carefully covered the discordant marks with foundation.
It took her a good half-hour and nearly half a bottle of foundation to satisfactorily conceal those marks before she emerged from the bathroom content.
Seeing Jian Jian with the marks perfectly hidden without a trace left, Chu Liyuan didn’t say anything.
Instead, he took Jian Jian’s hand, “I’ll take you to work!”
As Jian Dan followed Chu Liyuan, she had the feeling that something was a bit off about the uncle today, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on what it was.
So, all the way, she kept sizing the uncle up and down until they got into the car. Finally, Jian Dan noticed, “Uncle, why aren’t you wearing a tie today?” She had been with the uncle for many years, and he had never gone to work without a tie. What’s different today?
“Today’s situation is special, so I’m not wearing one.”
“Special situation? What do you mean?”
“It means…” Chu Liyuan tilted his head, and Jian Dan instantly understood what the uncle meant.
Because there were also discordant marks on the uncle’s neck.
Did she do that? How come she has no memory of it at all?
“Got it?” Chu Liyuan’s expression was somewhat smug.
“I’ll cover it for you.” She said and started rummaging in her bag for foundation.
“No need, I quite like it! Now, nobody dares come close to me.”
No matter what Jian Dan tried to do, whatever sweet words she said, Chu Liyuan didn’t let her get her way.
The car stopped at the entrance of New E Media, “Off you go!”
“Uncle, won’t you reconsider?” Jian Dan struggled one last time.
“I’ll pick you up tonight!” Chu Liyuan completely ignored Jian Dan’s words.
Jian Dan knew then that she had no chance, so she had no choice but to get out of the car.
After all, nobody knew she was the one who made those marks, and even if they did, she wasn’t around to see or hear it, so it was as if it had nothing to do with her.
With this thought, Jian Dan stopped fretting about it.
What Jian Dan didn’t expect was that just as she had started at New E Media, Qin Rou mysteriously pulled her aside, “Jian, getting a mouthful of dog food as soon as you enter the company, is that really okay? It could give me indigestion.”
What did she mean? Did Qin Rou just see the uncle dropping her off? But they didn’t do anything odd just now, right?
Could it be…
Jian Dan quickly took out her phone to check her reflection and saw no marks showing.
What dog food was Qin Rou talking about??
Just as Jian Dan was puzzled, Qin Rou led her to the bulletin board…
There was a new company policy posted this morning: From today onward, all employees must knock on the door before entering any space in the company! Those who fail to comply will be docked a month’s bonus!
Every company under Qin Corporation received this order today, and everyone was quite baffled by the sudden and strange mandate.
But Jian Dan was very clear; of course, Qin Rou was too, as it was apparent that this rule was because she hadn’t knocked yesterday before barging into Jian Dan’s office, disrupting her uncle’s good time, which is why there was such a strange new policy today.
Jian Dan turned to Qin Rou with a somewhat unnatural smile, “I think this rule is quite good! It shows respect for superiors, respect for privacy!”
As long as she wasn’t embarrassed, the embarrassment was on everyone else!
