As they watched Sachin drive away, Xiao Xu could not help exclaiming, “CEO Lu is indeed as unreachable as they claimed.”
Hearing him, Rosiley turned her head and sized him up from head to toe, then nodded. “He’s indeed much taller than you.”
Sachin was over 1. 8 meters tall, while Xiao Xu was exactly 1. 7 meters. There was indeed some difference in their heights.
Xiao Xu was speechless. “I’m not talking about our difference in height!”
“I know, I was just teasing you.” Rosiley patted him on the shoulder. “Now that the video has been taken, let’s go back and write our report.”
Their meeting with Sachin in the sports complex was just a minor episode for Rosiley, but for Xiao Xu, it was…
“He’s indeed astoundingly handsome in real person!”
As soon as Xiao Xu returned to the office, he started bragging about his encounter with Sachin. He kept praising the latter’s good looks.
“CEO Lu has always been so handsome, He’s like a prince out of a comic book, so handsome that he suffocates me.” The person who said this was Xiao Qi, another intern like Xiao Xu. Her face was resting on her hands, her eyes gleaming like those of a starry-eyed, bewitched fool.
“It’s more than being suffocated.” Another female colleague also showed a dazed, yearning look. She even began to sing, “Just because I gave you one more look in the crowds, I cannot forget your lovely face… ”
Rosiley looked at them, all seemingly stricken by the “Sachin bug”. They were completely infatuated by his handsome looks, unable to extricate themselves.
He was her man. She was quite proud to hear him being praised like that.
But this was indeed affecting their work.
So she got up and walked quietly behind Xiao Xu, without him knowing. He was still bragging. “You don’t know, he even smiled at me. If I were a girl, I would have been completely smitten… ”
Rosiley’s impassive gaze swept past the others, all except Xiao Xu. They all gave a sheepish smile and hurried back to their work desks.
Xiao Xu saw that and yelled after them in astonishment. “Hey, I haven’t finished yet. Why did you all run away? You aren’t giving me face at all.”
The others were all thinking, “It’s not that we don’t want to give you face, it’s that we can’t!”
As soon as he finished yelling, there was a heavy rap on his head.
“Who did that?” Xiao Xu turned his head back angrily.
Rosiley looked at him with a barely perceptible smile. “You’re chatting away very happily, aren’t you, Xiao Xu?”
Xiao Xu, who had wanted to explode just then, could only snuff out his fury when he saw it was Rosiley.
He gave her an ingratiating smile. “Oh, it’s you, sister Rosiley.”
“Of course it’s me. Who else would it have been?”
The smile on her face became more and more radiant, but Xiao Xu was terrified. He gave a dry laugh and shook his head. “No, no, sister Rosiley is the only one who dares to rap my head. No one else would dare to.”
“Oh?” Rosiley raised her eyebrows. “So you’re blaming me?”
“No, no, I wouldn’t dare.” Xiao Xu was still laughing drily.
Rosiley decided to stop this silly exchange. She gave him a direct order. “Don’t talk about such irrelevant stuff during work. You can chat all you like after working hours.”
Then she glanced at the blank document file on his computer screen and frowned. “Finish your report quickly and submit it to me before you knock off.”
After that, she rapped him lightly on the head again, turned around, and returned to her seat.
As soon as she left, the rest all turned and looked at Xiao Xu with gloating looks on their faces.
Xiao Xu clenched his fist and pretended to punch them, making them giggle even more amusedly.
In the end, Xiao Xu could only touch his nose embarrassedly and write his report obediently.
…
Just before knocking off from work, Rosiley suddenly received a bouquet of flowers.
A bouquet of red roses.
She began staring blankly into space as soon as she received the flowers.
