“Not going to your office?” Gu Mengmeng asked in confusion.

  Snake embraced Gu Mengmeng and kissed her on the forehead. “I want to show you off at the lobby first and let everyone in the company get to know their future lady boss.”


  Gu Mengmeng’s face turned red.

  Today, it seemed like the redness on her face never got the chance to fade off.

  Ding dong……

  The lift door opened.

  The receptionist who was seated right across from the lift was obviously shocked. Firstly, she had never seen the CEO walk out from the lift onto the lobby before. Secondly, the CEO always went solo and never allowed anyone to even come close to him. And he was actually hugging a girl now……

  “Hello CEO.” The receptionist got over her shock rather quickly and immediately stood up to greet Snake.

  Snake didn’t reply. He walked around the lobby with his arms around Gu Mengmeng, before returning to the entrance of the lift. He reached in to press every button in the lift before stepping out again right before the doors shut. He waited for the lift to start its ascend before pressing the up button on the outside. His right arm remained around Gu Mengmeng’s shoulder the entire time.

  Gu Mengmeng felt very uncomfortable with the x-ray eyes of the crowd fixed on them. She asked in a small voice, “What are you doing?”


  Snake gave a mild smile. “Waiting for the lift.”


  Gu Mengmeng, “.……”


  The unoccupied CEO lift stopped at every level, scaring everyone in the office. They gathered at the lift entrances, all prepared to greet their CEO, only to find it empty when it opened. Their CEO was not inside, causing them to exchange confused looks.

  When the lift finally returned to the first floor, Snake led Gu Mengmeng inside before pressing the button for the top story to his office.

  Gu Mengmeng was blushing with embarrassment the entire time. She desperately wished to find a hole in the ground to bury herself in. Every single person she met kept staring at her, and with a probing intensity that made her feel as if she wasn’t wearing any clothes.

  After entering Snake’s office, Gu Mengmeng collapsed on the sofa in exhaustion. She stared speechless at Snake’s cheerful mood.

  Was it because the minds of rich people worked differently?

  Didn’t those novels always portrayed the romance between CEOs and the poor commoner girls as secretive affairs? Why was he being so flagrant? Wasn’t he afraid that his mother might throw a check in her face after finding out about their relationship, to force her to leave him?

  Feeling Gu Mengmeng’s eyes on him, Snake had just sat down at his desk chair with a piece of document when he looked up at her. “Are you staring at me like that as a hint that you hope something to happen in here?”


  Damn……

  Another innuendo!

  Gu Mengmeng felt that she truly had a dirty mind.

  Turning away, she asked, “Why did you play with the lift like that earlier?”


  Snake looked at Gu Mengmeng in surprise. “I was showing off our relationship. Couldn’t you tell?”


  “Cough cough cough……” Gu Mengmeng was at a loss for words as she stared at Snake. “I mean why are showing off our relationship?”


  Snake rubbed his own nose and smiled sweetly. His voice was full of bliss. “I can’t wait for everyone to know that you are the one I like. And that…… we are together.”


  Looking at Snake’s tender expression and listening to his every word, which sounded like it resonated with his own heartbeat—Gu Mengmeng felt her unease and embarrassment gradually melt away.

  She didn’t know when did Snake fall in love with her, but the past few days together confirmed one thing: Snake truly loved her a lot. He loved her terribly.
