Regarding the matter of awakening lightning abilities after transformation

"Why didn't you tell Su Wanxi beforehand?"

Ms. Su, your lovingly prepared bento box is on its way.

Gu Cheng shook her head, picked up the spatula, and stir-fried another dish of tofu skin, answering casually.

I want to surprise her.

"When you arrived at the company, you found that Su Wanxi had already finished lunch and was cleaning up the dishes with her head down."

Listening to Gu Chengyan's vivid description, Gu Cheng bit her lip and whispered in rebuttal, "Don't jinx it."

At worst, she can just go there sooner.

With her hands moving a little faster, Gu Cheng bought a set of three lunch boxes: one for soup, one for the main dish, and the other for rice and side dishes that wouldn't easily mix flavors.

Pour in the steaming hot sauce, and the chicken wings will glow with a caramel color under the light. Gu Cheng picked up a piece to taste. It was more sweet than salty, with a hint of cola flavor.

"How about we eat when we get back?"

Gu Cheng asked Gu Chengyan.

"..."

Can she say no?

"Silence means consent."

Gu Cheng happily packed the lunchboxes, turned off the stove, got up and went back to the living room to change her shoes. She had reminded Su Wanxi that it was getting colder today, and it was indeed a bit chilly after walking around the supermarket. She put on a chestnut-colored trench coat over her clothes, planning to take it off when she went inside the building.

Su Wanxi's workplace was neither too far nor too close to the apartment, about a 30-40 minute drive. Gu Cheng arrived at her destination at exactly 11:50.

"Hello, I'd like to see Ms. Su Wanxi." Gu Cheng greeted politely as she opened the door, carrying a pile of lunch boxes.

Did you make an appointment in advance?

The receptionist, seeing that she was a stranger, hesitated to let her go easily and asked in a gentle voice with a respectful expression.

"An appointment...she doesn't seem to have one..." the receptionist added as she pondered.

"President Su is not seeing visitors at the moment. If you need anything, please leave a message or make an appointment in advance."

Is it that complicated...? Gu Cheng paused, her gaze deepening.

"Then, could you please pass on a message for me, saying that a Miss Gu is looking for her?"

The woman nodded and transferred the call to her secretary, who then directly informed Su Wanxi. Gu Cheng sat on the waiting chair for half a minute before a young woman in an office lady uniform walked towards her.

"You must be Gu Cheng, Miss Gu?"

Gu Cheng hummed in agreement, her gaze light and distant.

"I am Mr. Su's personal secretary. You can just call me Xiao Zhou."

A private secretary? Gu Cheng looked at the beautiful woman with a curvaceous figure in front of him and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Section 361, Chapter 355: I Can Explain

Looking at the dense text on the laptop screen, Su Wanxi rubbed her eyes to relieve the soreness. She leaned back in her chair, a black pen dancing between her delicate fingers.

The HR department's documents arrived only now, 32 minutes later than expected, so she probably won't be able to make it back by noon today.

Taking a sip of tea to moisten her throat, Su Wanxi picked up her phone, typed out the general situation in the chat box, and clicked send.

After finishing her report, the woman closed her eyes to rest for a while, resting her phone against her collarbone. After a moment, Su Wanxi seemed to remember something, put the microphone to her lips, and spoke a voice message in a gentle tone.

"Don't bother saving lunch for me, I can just grab something to eat outside."

"..."

Dear Miss Orange: "Company cafeteria?"

The food in the cafeteria downstairs wasn't bad, but it was just enough to fill you up. If she had more time, Su Wanxi preferred to go home or find a nearby restaurant for lunch.

"Waaah, work is so tiring, I want Orange to hug me~"

“（╯' - ')╯︵ ┻━┻”

As soon as she sent the table-flipping emoji, Su Wanxi couldn't help but laugh.

How old are you? Still using such cute emoticons, you're getting more and more childish.

After a while, Miss Orange sent a relatively short voice message, lasting only three seconds. Su Wanxi brought the speaker to her ear and tapped it lightly with her finger.

"mua~ I'll give you a kiss."

"(.?ω?.)ノ?"

Seeing the little heart appear on the screen, Su Wanxi's lips curled up slightly, her cheeks adorned with a gentle smile. She immediately returned the kiss, her long, shapely legs gently crossed.

I'm missing Orange a bit, so I'll get back to work as soon as possible and go back to be with her.

After taking another sip of goji berry tea and tightening the thermos, Su Wanxi sat up straight, her expression returning to its cool and aloof state.

"Please tell Director Li that the HR department is having a meeting at 4 pm today. Their work efficiency lately is really worrying. If you want to take a vacation, just say so at the meeting, and I will consider approving it."

Once Su Wanxi was in work mode, she didn't give anyone a friendly look, exuding an icy aura that kept strangers at bay. The secretary nodded to indicate that she understood and then scurried away in her high heels.

As Secretary Zhou closed the office door, she raised her hand to her chest, the image of Su Wanxi's smiling tone one second and her cold eyes the next flashing through her mind.

The contrast was so striking that the woman couldn't help but wonder who was on the other end of the chat window, someone who could even handle someone as proud as CEO Su.

However, on the other hand, President Su looked so handsome and dashing today that even Secretary Zhou, who is straight, had a moment of doubt about her own sexual orientation.

Beautiful and rich, she's definitely a domineering, aloof CEO.

Suddenly, she was no longer particularly resistant to workplace unspoken rules, and even felt a little bit of anticipation. As Secretary Zhou walked, she mentally conceived a story of a domineering CEO falling in love with her, which could be hundreds of thousands of words long.

Thankfully, Su Wanxi didn't know, otherwise that person could have packed up and left the next day.

......

At 11:52 a.m., Su Wanxi heard someone knocking on the door. She frowned slightly and said in a cold tone, "Come in."

Once you're fully engaged in something, you don't want to be disturbed. What's more, Su Wanxi was very dissatisfied with the HR department's performance today; anyone who came was a direct challenge.

Sensing the palpable tension in the office, Secretary Zhou steeled himself, put down the documents, and said respectfully, "President Su, someone is looking for you downstairs."

"We are not accepting guests here at the moment," Su Wanxi replied calmly.

"She said she was a friend of President Su, and her name was Gu Cheng."

After a brief silence, Su Wanxi put on her suit jacket and put the pen back in the pen holder.

???

Judging from this, is President Su going to pick her up personally?

Secretary Zhou was so surprised she almost prostrated herself. Even when CEO Su's own brother came to the company, he didn't go down to greet him. What kind of magic did this unknown Miss Gu possess?

Su Wanxi adjusted her glasses, walked to the door, suddenly stopped, and turned to look at her personal secretary.

Examine it carefully from top to bottom.

A standard office lady suit: a white shirt, a black skirt, and five-centimeter-long stilettos and sheer black stockings.

She removed her hand from the armrest, her lips pressed tightly together, and quickly said gently, "Secretary Zhou, go and fetch her."

Meeting in a fair and square manner demonstrates that I, Suo, am absolutely loyal and have no intention of keeping a mistress.

Although Secretary Zhou didn't understand the intricacies of the situation, she was a veteran in the workplace and could naturally tell that Miss Gu was no ordinary person and that she absolutely could not offend her.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Hearing the door open, Su Wanxi took out her phone, tapped a bunch of words with her slender fingers, then deleted them all, leaving only the sentence, "Why are you here?"

The screen displayed that it was typing, and a reply appeared after a few seconds.

Dear Miss Orange: "I came because I wanted to see you."

Gu Cheng made a rare straight shot, and a hint of joy welled up in Su Wanxi's eyes, but it was quickly swallowed up by the moonlight, like a shooting star with a trailing flame that vanished in an instant.

Five minutes later, the familiar notification tone sounded again.

Dear Miss Orange: "The secretary is very beautiful and very enthusiastic."

This sentence, like the previous one, is sent in text form and lacks necessary auxiliary tone, making it easy for people to be confused or even misunderstand it.

However, based on Su Wanxi's understanding of Gu Cheng, who emphasized her beauty first and then expressed her enthusiasm, she probably didn't misunderstand anything.

At most, I'm a little jealous, but I keep it to myself and don't want to talk about it.

After a while, Su Wanxi heard two different footsteps, one sharp and the other gentle.

When the door opened, besides Secretary Zhou, a pretty brown-haired girl stood outside. She was wearing a pure white knit sweater, with a chestnut-colored long trench coat draped over her shoulders, sky-blue jeans, and a pair of stylish sneakers. Her two slender feet were hidden in cute white short cotton socks, not revealing her ankles. Her whole body exuded a gentle and sweet feminine charm.

Secretary Zhou thoughtfully brewed two cups of tea, then left the office, leaving Su Wanxi and Gu Cheng with their own private space.

"I brought you lunch, eat it while it's hot."

Gu Cheng bent down to put down the lunchbox, her hair gently draped behind her head. Even through her trench coat, one could feel the girl's slender and charming waist, as well as her two smooth, slender, and straight calves.

Su Wanxi lowered her eyes, walked quietly behind Gu Cheng, and hugged her around the waist.

Have you eaten?

"No, we'll eat at home."

Gu Cheng reached out and covered her soft hand, her voice gentle and soothing.

"I needed to eat anyway, and since it was about the same size for one or two people, I just packed it up and brought it over."

"I'm afraid you'll be picky about food again."

A warm breath touched her neck. Gu Cheng turned her head away, and Su Wanxi missed kissing her lips, only rubbing her cheek against hers.

Are you jealous?

The woman lowered her head, looking aggrieved.
