Chapter 101: Double Pay for Working Overtime with Me
Tan Haoyu did not give Zhu Ziqing a chance to refute.
He stood up, walked to her side, and said softly, "No buts, it's settled then."
Although his voice wasn't loud, it carried the domineering air of a powerful CEO.
Zhu Ziqing blushed slightly after hearing Tan Haoyu's words.
However, a sweet feeling welled up in my heart.
She lowered her head and softly replied, "Okay."
Actually, Zhu Ziqing was willing.
She always hoped to spend more time with Tan Haoyu.
This can enhance mutual understanding, and perhaps lead to a more harmonious life together in the future.
Now she has the opportunity to be with him and also receive double pay, which is a win-win situation for her.
In the following period, Tan Haoyu was once again immersed in his busy work.
The phone rang incessantly, one call after another coming in.
Zhu Ziqing noticed that Tan Haoyu communicated in English most of the time, and he handled it with ease and clarity.
She secretly deduced that Tan Haoyu must have originally belonged to the Sunshine Group.
Otherwise, how could she have such excellent English skills and the ability to handle these complex matters?
Seeing Tan Haoyu focused on his work, Zhu Ziqing felt even more that he was exceptionally capable, and her respect for him grew even stronger.
Zhu Ziqing carefully held the pastry to Tan Haoyu's lips, her eyes focused and serious.
Tan Haoyu opened his mouth and took a bite of the pastry, but an accident happened at that moment.
His teeth accidentally bit Zhu Ziqing's finger as well.
In that instant, a tingling sensation spread from her fingers throughout Zhu Ziqing's entire body.
"Ah!" Zhu Ziqing was so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand, her face instantly turning bright red, like a ripe apple.
Looking at her like this, Tan Haoyu's lips curled up slightly, and he teased, "Are you feeding me or teasing a monkey?"
Zhu Ziqing composed herself and picked up another pastry, handing it to Tan Haoyu.
In an attempt to ease the awkward atmosphere, he said, "Mr. Tan, please have some more."
Tan Haoyu took the pastries and, while eating them, asked casually, "Are you bored keeping me company here?"
Zhu Ziqing quickly shook her head and replied, "Not boring."
In fact, she was secretly guessing Tan Haoyu's intentions.
The tempting double pay surfaced in my mind again, and I thought to myself, no matter what, there are still many benefits to working overtime.
"Zhu Ziqing." Tan Haoyu suddenly called her name softly.
The voice was deep and magnetic, full of endless charm.
"Hmm?" Zhu Ziqing responded subconsciously.
Before she could react, Tan Haoyu suddenly pulled her onto his lap.
Zhu Ziqing was immediately terrified and panicked.
Her hands instinctively pressed against Tan Haoyu's chest, and she said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Tan, please don't do this."
Tan Haoyu seemed not to hear her, staring into her eyes and pressing her for an answer: "You said don't do this, what do you mean don't do it here?"
Zhu Ziqing panicked and wanted to avoid the question.
She tried to twist her body to break free from Tan Haoyu's embrace.
But Tan Haoyu's arms were like iron hoops, tightly binding her and making her unable to move.
Under Tan Haoyu's burning gaze, Zhu Ziqing struggled for a long time, but still could not escape.
Suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, she took the initiative to hook her arms around Tan Haoyu's neck.
Then she opened her mouth and bit down on Tan Haoyu's shoulder, trying to express her resistance.
A sudden knocking sound rang out.
The sound was particularly jarring in the quiet office.
It instantly interrupted Tan Haoyu and Zhu Ziqing's passionate kiss.
The two of them froze as if they had been frozen in place.
They stared at each other, their eyes filled with surprise, neither knowing what was going to happen.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and Liu Meili rushed in.
But when her gaze fell upon the intimate scene between Tan Haoyu and Zhu Ziqing...
He was completely stunned, his face filled with undisguised shock.
Tan Haoyu's face instantly darkened, as dark and frightening as the sky before a storm.
He reached out and forcefully pressed down on Zhu Ziqing, who was trying to escape.
His eyes flashed with coldness as he sternly questioned Liu Meili, "Liu Meili, what are you doing here? What do you want?"
Liu Meili was a clever person after all, and her reaction was extremely quick.
She quickly waved her hand and said in a flustered manner, "Mr. Tan, it's alright, I... I went to the wrong door, I'm so sorry!"
After saying that, she turned around quickly like a startled rabbit, slammed the door shut, and fled as if she were running away.
Even after Liu Meili left, her heart was still pounding.
Filled with fear, she walked quickly while thinking to herself, "I'm doomed. President Tan hates it when people disturb his private moments. I've caught him and Zhu Ziqing like this. He definitely won't let me off easily. My days are probably numbered."
"Liu Meili, what's wrong with you? You look so distracted." Yang Piaoliang's voice suddenly rang out behind Liu Meili, startling her.
Liu Meili turned around and saw that it was Yang Piaoliang. She immediately wailed as if she had found someone to confide in: "Yang Piaoliang, I think I might not live much longer! I just accidentally ruined President Tan's good time. Do you think he will forgive me?"
Yang Piaoliang looked puzzled, raised her eyebrows, and teased, "Oh, Liu Meili, you're such a scaredy-cat! You just bumped into something by accident, why are you so frightened?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Meili quickly defended herself, saying, "You don't know, President Tan used to be completely dedicated to his work and would never do anything outside of work in the office. This situation today is too unexpected."
Yang Piaoliang scoffed and mocked, "Hmph, Liu Meili, I think your emotional intelligence is really low. Can President Tan be the same as before? He has someone he loves now, so it's normal for him to be affectionate. You're making a big fuss and barging in recklessly. I'm worried for you."
In the office, Tan Haoyu regained his composure, looking at Zhu Ziqing's rosy cheeks with tenderness in his eyes.
He reached out and gently cupped the back of Zhu Ziqing's head, then leaned in and kissed her again.
This time, Tan Haoyu's kiss was even gentler, as if filled with endless affection.
