Chapter 1184: Tyrant Senior Falls In Love With Me
After yesterday’s meeting, the management thought that their CEO conducting a meeting with his arms around a girl was already rather extreme. They never expected that today’s meeting would be even more awkward.
Snap, chomp...
“Taste this. This pistachio is quite delicious.” Snakel used his left hand to open a pistachio and toss the shell aside, before feeding the nut directly into Gu Mengmeng’s mouth.
Gu Mengmeng could feel the management’s eyes searing into her, but Snakel remained oblivious. He just looked expectantly at her. “Do you like it?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and said yes. Snakel took another pistachio and started opening it.
Gu Mengmeng took over the nut and said, “You concentrate on the meeting. I can open them myself.”
Snakel narrowed his eyes. He didn’t like Gu Mengmeng rejecting him. He liked to open the nuts for her.
Gu Mengmeng knew what this grand lord was thinking about, hence she smiled accommodatingly. “Concentrate on the meeting so that it can be finished sooner. Then we can go home earlier. I can open the nuts myself. Mmm?”
Go home earlier...
Those words brought happiness to Snakel’s heart.
Nodding reluctantly, Snakel tore his eyes away from Gu Mengmeng’s face. His gaze instantly turned cool and sharp, as he listened conscientiously to management giving their reports. He then tapped lightly on his keyboard, his analysis and execution precise and prompt.
And so an awkward situation presented itself.
Apart from the sounds of rustling papers as the management flipped through the reports, as well as the tapping of the keyboard from Snakel’s typing—there was also the snapping noises of Gu Mengmeng opening the pistachio nuts...
Gu Mengmeng was in a dilemma. She wanted to have just one or two nuts to be polite, but the moment she stopped, Snakel would immediately turn around and ask, “Why aren’t you eating? Are you tired from opening the shells? Better let me do it then...”
“No, no. I just wanted to drink some water...”
Snakel opened the bottled water on the meeting room table and handed it to Gu Mengmeng. The expression on his face as he watched her drink was so sweet that it was rather scary.
The management exchanged looks. The person sitting at the head of the table and smiling so foolishly as he watched someone else eating and drinking—was that really their high and mighty CEO? One of the elite members of their corporate world?
Gu Mengmeng spent the whole afternoon eating pistachios, while Snakel—because of Gu Mengmeng’s preference to go home earlier—settled all the company issues in an even more fast-paced manner than usual.
Not wanting to let Gu Mengmeng eat takeout again, he fetched her home at noon with the intention of personally making lunch for her.
Gu Mengmeng felt that although her boss was her boyfriend, she couldn’t be a such a free-loader? Hence she took the initiative to wash the dishes. But Snakel said with a smile, “Your hands are too lovely to be doing such chores.”
“But I can’t just do nothing all day every day.” Gu Mengmeng felt rather frustrated. “I will feel embarrassed getting $4,500 a month like that.”
Snakel thought about it before giving a faint smile. He then pulled Gu Mengmeng behind him and wrapped her arms around his own waist. “You can hug me.”
“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng didn’t understand.
Snakel chuckled. “Apart from you, no one else can perform this important task. Next time when I am washing the dishes, you just stand behind and hold me like this.”
Gu Mengmeng felt her face heat up. She rested the side of her face against Snakel’s broad back. Through his shirt, she could vaguely detect his personal scent. That faint sense of familiarity reminded Gu Mengmeng of how the two of them had spent yesterday night sleeping in each others arms. And of his early morning greeting. She blushed deeply as she recalled all that.
