After Transmigrating into a Scum Gong, the Rich Young Master Got Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 16
Chapter 16
“President Lu is inherently different.”
“In what way?” Lu Zhaoyi asked. “Especially handsome?”
Li Xiao smiled and shook his head, but didn’t answer him.
A knock sounded on the office door. Lu Zhaoyi said, “Come in.”
Since he had a meeting today, Lu Zhaoyi was not surprised to see Chu Siyu.
“President Lu.”
“It’s fine, no need to avoid him,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Just say what you need to say.”
Li Xiao smiled at them.
“This is the project we’re discussing with Shengjin today,” Chu Siyu said, placing the documents down. “I’ve organized all the materials.”
Lu Zhaoyi asked her, “Do they absolutely have to meet at 8 o’clock?”
“Yes,” Chu Siyu said. “Shengjin specifically requested it.”
“Alright, I understand,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Thank you for your hard work.”
Chu Siyu was momentarily surprised, but seeing Li Xiao, she guessed that her CEO probably didn’t want to lose face in front of the young man.
Before leaving, Chu Siyu smiled at Li Xiao.
“Tsk,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “You just got here, and you’ve already stolen all my secretary’s attention.”
Li Xiao laughed: “I’m a living person standing here; anyone can see me. Besides, they must be curious about my relationship with you.”
Hearing Li Xiao say this, Lu Zhaoyi felt a sudden tension: What relationship? What kind of relationship could it be? You’re the protagonist shou, and I’m the transmigrator?
“Is that so,” Lu Zhaoyi said, trying to cover his nervousness, then lowered his head to look at the documents.
Li Xiao said, “Shengjin has indeed developed well in the field of energy engineering these past few years.”
“Hey, Xiaoxiao, you know that too?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “That’s impressive.”
Li Xiao shook his head, casually replying, “I just looked it up online.”
Lu Zhaoyi thought: He’s trying to fool me again. Little Young Master, can’t we have a little less pretense and a little more sincerity between us?
“Oh,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I wonder what the people at Shengjin are thinking. Do they fear the light? Why choose the night?”
Li Xiao smiled, agreeing with him: “Perhaps.”
“Xiaoxiao, are you still drawing?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “If not, read the documents with me.”
Li Xiao laughed: “Didn’t President Lu say you’re a corporate slave? Can a corporate slave slack off like this?”
“Of course,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Don’t you think they all came to Yuehe to work? They’re just here to steal electricity.”
Li Xiao’s smile became even more noticeable: “President Lu is very witty.”
“Beibei, come here,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Read it with me.”
“Okay.”
Lu Zhaoyi only had one seat, so he naturally held Li Xiao on his lap as they sat.
As soon as Li Xiao sat down, he leaned in and kissed Lu Zhaoyi’s cheek. Lu Zhaoyi was startled at first, then simply wrapped his arms around Li Xiao, exchanging a deep kiss with him.
After they separated, Li Xiao said, “President Lu is getting better at this now.”
Lu Zhaoyi narrowed his eyes: “That’s because Xiaoxiao is a good guide.”
Lu Zhaoyi used the word “guide,” and Li Xiao immediately felt a little embarrassed. He meekly called out, “President Lu.”
“Beibei,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “No more slacking off. Let’s look at the documents together.”
Li Xiao obediently turned around, but remained in Lu Zhaoyi’s arms.
“Xiaoxiao, look at the documents.”
Li Xiao focused on the documents, then pointed to the key points with his finger and looked up at Lu Zhaoyi. Lu Zhaoyi hadn’t looked at the document at all, but instead kissed his face.
“President Lu,” Li Xiao chuckled. “Look at the document.”
…
“Okay.”
Lu Zhaoyi noticed that the place Li Xiao had just pointed to was indeed the key point. He said, “Xiaoxiao, you read documents so fast.”
“Mhm,” Li Xiao said. “Since President Lu is distracted, naturally, it has to be me who reads it.”
Lu Zhaoyi said, “You figured that out? Little fox.”
Li Xiao didn’t reply. He continued to point out the useful information to Lu Zhaoyi.
During this time, Lu Zhaoyi asked Li Xiao several times if he wanted to go to lunch, and Li Xiao kept telling him, “We’ll go together once we finish reading.”
Lu Zhaoyi lamented how clever he was, knowing that he wasn’t particularly keen on working, so he used this to entice him to read the documents.
Lu Zhaoyi turned his head to look at him, thinking: No wonder the scum gong could have a sudden realization. Anyone who sees you would be charmed!
They did, in fact, finish reading the contract together.
“The terms are very good,” Li Xiao said. “So good that it’s almost abnormal.”
Lu Zhaoyi pondered for a moment: “I feel that way too. The agreed-upon meeting time is also very wrong. This hour always makes me think there’s an ulterior motive.”
Li Xiao was about to say something else when Lu Zhaoyi told him, “Xiaoxiao, stop thinking about it. Let’s go have lunch.”
“Okay,” Li Xiao said. “I’ll listen to you.”
Lu Zhaoyi smiled: “I listen to Xiaoxiao.”
Li Xiao and Lu Zhaoyi held hands as they went to the cafeteria. At this time, the company cafeteria wasn’t too crowded, but their joint appearance attracted many eyes.
One handsome, one beautiful—it was the perfect visual pairing.
However, many people had already seen them in the morning, so they weren’t too shocked now.
Although they hadn’t heard of their CEO bringing people to the company before, the person was right in front of them, so they couldn’t say much.
After all, Lu Zhaoyi was their superior, and it was better not to stir up trouble.
Lu Zhaoyi genuinely wasn’t concerned with other people’s gazes. At the moment, the only person he could think about and pay attention to was Li Xiao.
As a large company, Yuehe’s cafeteria food was actually quite good. Even Li Xiao was in the mood to choose his meal.
Lu Zhaoyi had a very slight smile on his face, one that he didn’t even notice himself, but the people who passed by him did.
Lu Zhaoyi knew people would look and gossip, but he completely ignored what kind of discussions the company employees might be having about them.
Those things didn’t concern him; Li Xiao was what mattered.
Lu Zhaoyi asked Li Xiao if he needed takeout, which Li Xiao naturally refused. He wanted to be with Lu Zhaoyi, for everyone to see.
He couldn’t say this directly, but Lu Zhaoyi could easily guess from his expression.
Li Xiao was always like this: no matter how many thoughts he had, he would never reveal a hint of it verbally.
“Where should we sit?” Lu Zhaoyi pointed to an empty spot, and Li Xiao nodded.
After sitting down with him, Lu Zhaoyi got up again to get two bowls of soup.
During this process, Li Xiao kept watching him.
Lu Zhaoyi smiled at him: “You miss me that much?”
Li Xiao nodded: “I want to see you and be with you.”
Lu Zhaoyi laughed: “Beibei, eat.”
This time, Li Xiao didn’t refuse. Lu Zhaoyi watched his movements, suddenly realizing that he seemed to have become accustomed to watching him eat.
Didn’t they say it takes 21 days to form a habit? How did I get used to it so quickly!
Although Lu Zhaoyi thought that internally, his words were all focused on caring for Li Xiao.
After lunch, they returned to the CEO’s office together.
Lu Zhaoyi asked Li Xiao if he wanted to nap in the lounge later. Li Xiao asked him, “President Lu, will you sleep?”
“Xiaoxiao, are you inviting me to join you?”
Li Xiao nodded, and Lu Zhaoyi smiled: “Got it.”
They sat on the sofa together, looking at their things for a while, then Lu Zhaoyi took him to take a nap.
There were a few sets of pajamas in the lounge. Although Li Xiao was shorter than Lu Zhaoyi, the pajamas were loose-fitting, so they didn’t matter. Lu Zhaoyi grabbed a new set for him.
They usually didn’t shower together, and Li Xiao immediately looked embarrassed: “I’ll change inside. You change here.”
Lu Zhaoyi nodded: “Okay.”
“Time to sleep, Xiaoxiao.”
Li Xiao answered: “Mhm.”
Looking at Li Xiao, Lu Zhaoyi suddenly realized that since he arrived here, he had slept with Li Xiao almost every night.
Whatever, he’s handsome. It’s just sleeping together, and I won’t lose anything.
“President Lu,” Li Xiao said, “I can’t sleep.”
Lu Zhaoyi was silent for two seconds before saying, “Me neither.”
Lu Zhaoyi opened his eyes and looked at him. Li Xiao was looking at him at the same time.
Their eyes met, and Lu Zhaoyi smiled softly. Seeing Li Xiao sit up, he also straightened himself up.
Lu Zhaoyi turned to look at him: “Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about?”
“You,” Li Xiao answered without hesitation.
Lu Zhaoyi smiled and pinched his cheek: “Little fox, who taught you that?”
Li Xiao gently pressed his finger against Lu Zhaoyi’s chest.
“Xiaoxiao, you are too much!” Lu Zhaoyi laughed. “Your President Lu has absolutely no way to deal with you.”
Li Xiao leaned his head against him. Lu Zhaoyi called out: “Xiaoxiao.”
Li Xiao answered with a sound.
Lu Zhaoyi called out repeatedly, and Li Xiao answered each time. When Li Xiao stopped answering, Lu Zhaoyi knew he had fallen asleep.
Little guy, I got the upper hand again! Who wouldn’t find this boring!
Lu Zhaoyi helped him lie down, covered him with the quilt, and then lay down beside him.
Feeling Li Xiao’s steady breathing, Lu Zhaoyi finally fell asleep.
When Lu Zhaoyi woke up, he didn’t dare to move, afraid of disturbing Li Xiao. He simply leaned against the headboard and looked at his phone.
Before long, Li Xiao woke up.
“Xiaoxiao, do you want to sleep a little more?”
Li Xiao shook his head: “I won’t sleep anymore. I’m awake.”
“Okay.” Lu Zhaoyi helped him sit up while speaking.
“Thank you,” Li Xiao said.
The two got out of bed together. Lu Zhaoyi said, “I’ll change inside this time.”
As if afraid of being rejected, Lu Zhaoyi walked inside before Li Xiao could answer.
When he came out, he indeed saw that Li Xiao had already changed his clothes.
“Xiaoxiao is so good,” Lu Zhaoyi said.
Noticing Li Xiao was slightly blushing, he didn’t tease him anymore. Li Xiao took the pajamas to fold them for him. Lu Zhaoyi didn’t react quickly enough, and Li Xiao had already finished folding them.
“Thank you,” Lu Zhaoyi pulled him close and kissed his face.
Li Xiao asked him, “Can I have a deep kiss?”
Lu Zhaoyi was stunned, then pressed him onto the bed. He supported the back of Li Xiao’s head with his hand and exchanged a deep kiss with him.
The entire room was so quiet that they could clearly feel each other’s breathing. At this moment, they only had eyes for each other.
After the kiss, both of their breaths became somewhat ragged. Lu Zhaoyi helped him up, then simply carried him in a princess carry to the sofa outside.
“You stay here,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’m going to look at the documents.”
Li Xiao nodded obediently. Lu Zhaoyi also nodded, satisfied.
After reading the financial report for a while, Lu Zhaoyi frowned. Li Xiao asked him, “What’s wrong, President Lu?”
Lu Zhaoyi shook his head: “Nothing.”
“You don’t look enthusiastic.”
“This is how we corporate slaves are,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I constantly feel like the whole world owes me money.”
Li Xiao pretended to be deep in thought: “That must be a lot.”
Lu Zhaoyi was immediately amused by him: “Xiaoxiao, you are so interesting.”
“If President Lu doesn’t want to look at them anymore, why not come draw with me?” Li Xiao said. “Something new should hold some attraction for you.”
“I genuinely have no idea how to draw,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’m not trying to fool you at all.”
“I’ll teach you,” Li Xiao said. “Just consider it keeping me company.”
“If it’s to keep you company, then okay.”
Lu Zhaoyi walked over and sat down next to him. Li Xiao moved the digital tablet closer to Lu Zhaoyi.
“I swear,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’m actually watching a master draw.”
Li Xiao laughed: “You’re exaggerating too much.”
Lu Zhaoyi said seriously: “No, I truly think so.”
“Then you try?” Li Xiao handed him the pen.
Although Lu Zhaoyi took the pen, he told Li Xiao, “I’m going to ruin this perfect masterpiece.”
“It’s fine,” Li Xiao said. “I saved it beforehand.”
Lu Zhaoyi turned his face to look at him, seeing Li Xiao’s mouth curved upward. Lu Zhaoyi said, “You don’t trust me? I won’t draw then. Your subject withdraws.”
“President Lu, shouldn’t you say ‘your concubine’?” Li Xiao asked with a smile.
“That damn homophone joke.” Lu Zhaoyi was about to say something else, but Li Xiao’s hand closed over his. Lu Zhaoyi looked at him, confused.
Li Xiao smiled: “Didn’t I say I was going to teach you?”
Lu Zhaoyi thought: Well, you didn’t say it would be hands-on teaching.
But feeling the warmth of Li Xiao’s palm, Lu Zhaoyi felt his whole body stiffen.
Lu Zhaoyi said, “Xiaoxiao, I feel like you’re putting on a show for me.”
“What?” Li Xiao didn’t stop moving his hand.
“Challenge the Impossible,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Teaching a reborn Ah Dou is very difficult.”
“No problem,” Li Xiao said. “Since you’re so handsome, if you can’t be helped, then so be it.”
“So you can just re-edit it yourself?”
“Exactly,” Li Xiao said. “You reminded me.”
“Hmph.” Lu Zhaoyi stopped talking for fear of disturbing him.
Li Xiao was capable of becoming a top professional in his field. Even holding Lu Zhaoyi’s hand didn’t hinder his performance at all.
“Damn, you’re strong, Xiao,” Lu Zhaoyi said after Li Xiao stopped writing. “So amazing.”
“No,” Li Xiao said. “This drawing is simple.”
“Shoot! I’m not playing with you anymore.”
“No way,” Li Xiao said. “President Lu, help me press save.”
Lu Zhaoyi said sarcastically, “You’re so great at drawing, but now you don’t even know how to save?”
“Mhm, I don’t know how,” Li Xiao agreed with him. “I want President Lu to save it.”
Lu Zhaoyi smiled and clicked save: “You really leave me helpless.”
Li Xiao smiled, then got up and said, “I’ll go make you coffee.”
Seeing him get up, Lu Zhaoyi realized the pen was still in his hand, and he suddenly felt like playing a trick on Li Xiao.
Lu Zhaoyi created a new canvas the same size as the screen.
