Gu Ziyou followed her gaze and sure enough saw Shen Lingfeng, along with Yang Xiao who was busy making phone calls behind him.

She held her fork, noticed him looking over, smiled quietly, and quickly turned her head, reminding the woman across from her who was still winking and making faces, "Shanshan, eat!"

"Hahaha, although there’s a separate area for executives here, Shen never really came to the cafeteria before. Things have changed a bit these days."

"That’s because the cupboards have been changed." Gu Ziyou casually came up with a reason, lowered her head, and ate.

After she finished lunch, she couldn’t see where Shen Lingfeng had gone.

Shanshan wanted to return to the advertising department to rest; this reminded her of the nap room in the president’s office. She wondered if anyone would notice if she had a beautiful nap in there.

While thinking this, Shen Lingfeng suddenly appeared in her peripheral vision walking over.

There were a few others by his side, seemingly engaged in conversation.

Shen Lingfeng also stopped by the elevator, prompting Gu Ziyou to quickly say, "Good afternoon, Shen."

"Mm."

After that soft response, the middle-aged men who had been talking nodded and bowed a few words before leaving upon seeing the descending elevator.

Distracted by her thoughts, she heard a voice beside her, "Come in."

The elevator exclusively for the president’s floor stopped, and he had already entered, holding the door open.

Gu Ziyou glanced at the people waiting for the elevator beside her, quickly concocting an excuse to join him, "Shen, I’ll send you that contract right away, I know you need it urgently..."

Once she stepped inside, the elevator doors closed.

She wondered what kind of expressions those people had.

"Why call me in when there are people around." Gu Ziyou muttered, standing next to him, slowly resting her head closer, "Isn’t this inappropriate?"

Shen Lingfeng’s brows furrowed more, as the subtle fragrance from her body lingered at his nose, her gentle breathing barely perceptible through his clothing.

"Why do you have this expression again, do you think I’m worrying too much? But I don’t want others to gossip about you, after all, you..."

Suddenly the face in her sight zoomed in, her lips were easily captured.

She looked in surprise at the person kissing her, her back quickly pressed against the wall.

This kiss came unexpectedly, catching Gu Ziyou off guard.

Just as she managed to respond, he let her go.

Stunned, embraced against his chest, her heart raced, "This is the elevator, the doors could open any minute!"

Shen Lingfeng looked up, glanced at the elevator numbers, and leisurely said, "Didn’t you say earlier, you know I need it urgently?"

Gu Ziyou: "..."

*

Since transferring upstairs and commuting with him daily, Gu Ziyou felt time flew by so quickly, her life felt quite fulfilled.

In a blink, it was payday. She laughed heartily thrice, deliberately took a picture of her pay stub, and sent it to Xie Nianjing.

"You lost the bet!"

Xie Nianjing and Li Chaoxi bet whether she could last a month.

Gu Ziyou had been displeased for a while, just waiting for this day.

Soon, a nonchalant message arrived from the other side, "If Shen Lingfeng wasn’t your boss, would you still last a month?"

"I would!"

"Will your salary be enough?"

"...Yes."

Then Xie Nianjing answered her question with silence.

Gu Ziyou felt distressed, with this ’what if’ scenario, she couldn’t answer herself either.

Unless she changed jobs.
