Free Web NovelChapter 1441: Chapter 546: Everyone’s Goddess, He...
Even if she could tolerate Zhang Jingdong, she still didn’t want too many people knowing about this.
So after a long, lingering, and meaningful kiss, Lu Zhining walked into the dorm building, looking back every few steps, reluctant to leave.
And Zhang Jingdong didn’t turn away until she’d gone upstairs and waved at him from the balcony.
Back in the car, Zhang Jingdong was just about to head straight to Spring Breeze Garden when his phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and glanced at the screen.
Turned out it was a text from Lin Qingci: Did you do that thing with Lu Zhining today?
Zhang Jingdong’s heart skipped a beat. He replied: What made you suddenly ask that?
Lin Qingci: What do you think? Her latest update is already trending on the site, so of course I have to pay extra attention. Then I noticed her "change." Did I guess wrong?
Zhang Jingdong: You could open a street stall and tell fortunes now!
Lin Qingci: Tsk, I hit the nail on the head and now you’re all mad and embarrassed?
Zhang Jingdong: I’m seriously complimenting you here.
Lin Qingci: Are you still with her right now? You’re not giving her a "lecture" at this very moment, are you?
Zhang Jingdong: If I were giving her a lecture right now, do you think I’d be texting you?
Lin Qingci: Not necessarily. You’ve got so many "lecture" tricks up your sleeve, who knows, maybe you’re texting me and doing that thing at the same time. Can’t lie, just imagining it already feels kinda exciting.
Zhang Jingdong: So you’re saying you want a lesson?
Lin Qingci: Even if I want a lesson, there’s nothing I can do. You can’t be in two places at once, and I don’t want to snatch someone else’s love.
Zhang Jingdong: Didn’t I teach you last time how to self-study?
Lin Qingci: Hmph... the gap between people really is huge. If Mr. Yan said what I just did, you’d go find her no matter where you were, right? Forget it, I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m getting back to work. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Zhang Jingdong: How are you getting mad now? I’m giving you five seconds to apologize, or tonight’s lesson is canceled.
Lin Qingci: Are you really coming over to see me?
Zhang Jingdong: When have I ever lied to you about something like this?
Lin Qingci: Fine then... Hubby, I was wrong. What I said just now was complete nonsense. You’re great to every one of us and super fair. I just acted a bit spoiled and you’re already willing to come see me. I’m really so touched, I love you to death!
Zhang Jingdong: That’s more like it. So will there be a surprise later?
Lin Qingci: I’m still at the office right now. If you want a surprise, we might have to go home.
Zhang Jingdong: Let’s just stay at the office.
Lin Qingci: At the office? There are still quite a few employees working overtime here. Why don’t we go to a nearby hotel instead?
Zhang Jingdong: Relax, this time it won’t be in your office. I’ve thought of a better place.
Lin Qingci: Where?
Zhang Jingdong: I’ll take you there in a bit, then you’ll see.
Lin Qingci: Okay then.
After finishing her chat with Zhang Jingdong, Lin Qingci went back to the main office.
They’d been developing new features for the website these days, so dozens of people had been working overtime at the company every day.
And as the boss, she led by example; out of twenty-four hours, she spent at least eighteen at the office, only going home around noon to grab a change of clothes and squeeze in a quick nap.
First, seeing their boss hustling this hard made the employees also give it their all.
Second, besides being the boss, Lin Qingci was a truly top-tier beauty, and since most of the company’s employees were men, her god-tier looks worked like a super-charged stimulant for them.
Honestly, every single male employee in the company, whether they had a girlfriend or were married, secretly had a crush on Lin Qingci.
After all, their boss was just too perfect in every way!
She was this gorgeous, a Harvard graduate, came back to start her own business, and had grown the company to this size.
What’s even more badass is that as the boss, she was not only a tech expert but also a management ace.
You have to know, for a startup boss, this combo is incredibly rare, because over 90% of startups fail in the end either because the boss only knows tech or only understands management.
So they genuinely admired Lin Qingci from the bottom of their hearts, worshiped her, and treated her as their personal goddess.
It was already close to eight o’clock, and many employees were feeling tired, but none of them left their desks. Instead, they all, as if on cue, started sneaking looks at Lin Qingci.
Because for them, this was the best way to relax.
And a lot of them noticed that Lin Qingci right now seemed even more beautiful than she had during the day!
Her complexion was rosier, and the smile on her face was even brighter.
Plus, she was wearing her best-looking pink suit today.
Tsk tsk, she was insanely gorgeous!
They all silently thought their boss must be handing out welfare benefits, so after secretly staring at her for a while, they all went back to working overtime like they’d just been injected with chicken blood.
Ten minutes or so later, Lin Qingci’s phone buzzed.
She picked it up, glanced at it, then said to her secretary, "I’m stepping out for a bit. If anything comes up, talk to me in half an hour."
"Okay."
Lin Qingci stood up, took a loop around the office, then walked gracefully out of the main room.
She waited in the elevator lobby for two minutes. Then the second elevator on the right lit up with an up arrow.
Her heart warmed as she walked over.
Not long after, the elevator stopped at the sixth floor.
When the doors slid open, there was Zhang Jingdong standing right in front of her.
She forced herself to hold back her excitement and pretended to be calm as she nodded at him. "Boss."
