ACBNHTS Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Boss can let you kiss him, do you want to?

Sheng Yiguang came out of the subway station and went straight to Pei Du’s company.

As soon as he approached, he saw Pei Du walking out.

A black coat was draped over his suit, billowing in the wind, resembling his shirt puffed out by the wind in his youthful summers.

Sheng Yiguang couldn’t help but quicken his pace.

Pei Du walked even faster to meet him, took off the scarf hanging around his neck, wrapped it around Sheng Yiguang’s neck, and smiled at the corners of his lips.

“Other people pick up their partner after work and arrive early, but when you pick me up, you make me wait for you, such a big face.”

“The work wasn’t finished, did you wait long? I’m not cold, you wear it.”

Pei Du didn’t let him take it off, but tightened it even more, and also took the briefcase from his hand.

“Didn’t wait long. Your nose is red, and you say you’re not cold. Don’t move, keep it on.”

Sheng Yiguang didn’t move, half of his face was covered by the scarf, and his red nose was hidden behind it.

“I originally wanted to buy you some flowers or something, and I was thinking about what to buy all the way here, but there was nothing at the subway station. I was afraid you’d be anxious, and I really wanted to see you, so I didn’t go the long way and came empty-handed.”

Pei Du’s face was full of smiles, “Don’t you have something else?”

Pei Du raised his eyebrows slightly and opened his arms.

Sheng Yiguang understood and immediately stepped forward to hug him, tightly and seamlessly, the cold wind was squeezed away.

After hugging for a while, Pei Du patted him on the back, his voice full of smiles.

“I know you like it, but is it necessary to hug for so long? Little brother, we’re all adults, show some self-control, okay?”

Sheng Yiguang let go, a little embarrassed by the teasing, and pulled the scarf up.

“Shall we go out for dinner together?”

“Okay.”

Sheng Yiguang was about to walk towards the subway station, but Pei Du pulled him back.

“I have a car, don’t squeeze in, where do you want to eat?”

“Choose whatever you like, I’ll just keep you company. After we finish eating, I have to go to the hospital to eat again with Sheng Tong.”

“Then let’s buy some and go to the hospital to eat together. You don’t mind eating twice.”

Pei Du decided on a restaurant and packed the food together to go to the hospital.

Sheng Tong was watching TV.

Hearing the door open, he knew it was Sheng Yiguang and excitedly shouted, “Sheng Yiguang, you’re here?”

Then, the next second, he saw Pei Du and immediately stopped smiling.

But Sheng Yiguang had said that his doctor was found by Pei Du and that Pei Du paid for the medical expenses.

One should be grateful.

Therefore, at this moment, he could only mutter a greeting.

“Brother.”

Pei Du heard it and smiled, “As expected, money can make… a child speak.”

Sheng Tong glared at Pei Du.

Sheng Yiguang said, “Don’t always bully him.”

“Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Pei Du put the meal boxes on the table and opened them one by one.

“These are all things you and your brother like to eat.”

Sheng Tong, who was deliberately going against him, immediately said, “There are two that aren’t!”

Pei Du, who was waiting for this, said lightly, “Oh, those are what I like to eat.”

“…”

Sheng Tong angrily picked up two chopsticks of food and stuffed them into his mouth provocatively, deliberately eating them for Pei Du to see.

Pei Du smiled and didn’t argue with the child.

He saw Sheng Yiguang removing fish bones and picking them up with chopsticks.

Sheng Yiguang quickly said, “That’s for Sheng Tong.”

“I know, eat yours, I’ll do it.”

Sheng Yiguang’s eyebrows curved.

Pei Du removed a piece of fish meat and added it to Sheng Tong’s bowl, “Eat more, when you grow up, do it yourself. Don’t always tire your brother.”

After speaking, he removed another piece for Sheng Yiguang.

Sheng Tong bit his chopsticks, his eyes uncontrollably drifting between Sheng Yiguang and Pei Du.

He had never seen his brother so happy.

His brother was gentle, but didn’t like to smile.

Occasionally when he did smile, there was a layer of melancholy underneath.

Now it was different.

Now it was really good.

For his brother’s sake, he could give Pei Du a little, a tiny, tiny bit of a good look.

After dinner, Sheng Yiguang and Pei Du stayed with Sheng Tong for a while before leaving.

Sheng Yiguang wanted Pei Du to drive him straight home, and then he would take the subway back.

Pei Du laughed, “I’m going back to the Pei family tonight, there’s no subway there.”

“…”

Sheng Yiguang could only accept Pei Du driving him home.

The next day, as soon as Sheng Yiguang arrived at the company, he heard the voice of the marketing department director coming from the design department manager’s office.

The news of Sheng Yiguang’s three-year free contract had already spread.

Sun Mo came over, “Not to say, you’re too brave! You don’t know that the marketing department guy arrived half an hour early and directly blocked the manager at the door. I estimate that the higher-ups probably know by now.”

“So fast?”

“Didn’t you see the company’s group chat? It’s gone crazy. You’re a hot commodity now.” Sun Mo patted Sheng Yiguang on the shoulder, “Brother, I have to say it again, if I become rich, don’t forget me!”

The marketing department director almost fought with the design department manager in the office to compete for Sheng Yiguang.

In the end, the two of them went to the General Manager Xie’s office together.

General Manager Xie didn’t know what to do.

He could only ask for instructions from above.

The message reached Pei Du’s desk.

Sheng Yiguang guessed that Pei Du would know, but he didn’t expect him to come in person.

This was the second time Sheng Yiguang stood in the office facing Pei Du in a suit and tie.

Last time, Pei Du told him to leave the company.

This time, the situation was completely different.

“Three years of free advertising projects, how much money is that saving me? bb is amazing. But…”

Before Sheng Yiguang could be happy, Pei Du’s tone suddenly changed.

“You were bullied, why didn’t you tell me?”

“It’s already been resolved.”

“You still have to say it.” Pei Du pretended to be serious and knocked on the table, “Remember that?”

Sheng Yiguang nodded.

Pei Du stood up, walked in front of him, and leaned against the table.

“This time the contribution is great, a promotion and raise are certain. I plan to open a new department for you, and all the projects that the design department and marketing department want to do will go through you. You can choose how many subordinates you want, and in the future, you will be General Manager Sheng.”

Sheng Yiguang smiled.

Pei Du: “Is there anything else you want? Your boss can fulfill some of your personal desires.”

While Sheng Yiguang was still considering whether this desire was proper or not, Pei Du had already grabbed his wrist and pulled him closer, a smile on his lips.

“Your boss can let you kiss him, do you want to?”

Sheng Yiguang honestly nodded.

Pei Du laughed and kissed him on the lips, “Open your mouth.”

…

When Sheng Yiguang finally left the office, his legs were a little weak. He took advantage of the fact that no one was there to blow some cold wind by the window and freeze his face back to normal before returning to his workstation.

He also had two invitations in his hand.

Invitations to the Pei family’s New Year’s Day party.

Old Man Pei was getting old and loved excitement. Every year at the end of the year, he would invite a bunch of younger generations to have a party at his house. After Pei Du returned home, he couldn’t restrain his desire to show off his grandson, and the party became more and more exaggerated, with more and more people invited.

It was inconvenient for Pei Du to be absent, and he wanted to spend New Year’s Eve with Sheng Yiguang, so he gave him two invitations, inviting him to bring a friend along.

Sheng Yiguang invited Sun Mo.

Sun Mo regarded it as a treasure, “Pei Du gave you this? You guys are back together?”

“No, I’m chasing him.”

Sun Mo looked at the invitation repeatedly, and said nonchalantly.

“Then he’s pretty good at providing opportunities for you to chase him.”
