Chapter 62: 62, You Cunning Bandit (Second Update)_1 Chapter 62: 62, You Cunning Bandit (Second Update)_1 Quan Jingwu couldn’t help but let out a chuckle, “That’s a one-in-a-million chance.”

Upon hearing this, Jian Qing put down her iPad, and playfully asked, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll leak your company’s secrets when you discuss business in front of me?”

Despite her casual teasing, Quan Jingwu responded very seriously, “If I didn’t trust you, how could I have fallen for you, huh?”

His low and husky voice was filled with sincerity, causing a strange warmth to spread through Jian Qing’s heart.

“Hmm, if I was to respect this trust, it would only be polite to reciprocate in some way, wouldn’t it?” Jian Qing looked up at him, her eyes shimmering and sparkling.

Seizing the opportunity, Quan Jingwu replied, “How about offering your heart?”

Jian Qing blinked and pretended to say, “That seems like a lot of trouble.”

Quan Jingwu leaned closer to her ear, his magnetic voice filled with a tempting allure, “You only need to take the first step, and I’ll take care of the rest, how about that?”

This time, Jian Qing couldn’t help but laugh. She pushed away his handsome face that was leaning close to her, “Xiaojing, didn’t I say that your pretty boy tricks won’t work with me, hmm?”

“And, wouldn’t you have taken care of things if it hadn’t been for the trouble?” She laughed freely, waiting for his counterattack.

Quan Jingwu lifted his thin lips closer to her ear again, “Even if pretty boy tricks don’t work, doesn’t it count if the person is me?”

The tips of her ears turned red instantly. Jian Qing felt like she would become pregnant if she listens to his voice for a few more times. She tried to keep her voice steady, “Your cultivation level isn’t enough. You need to keep working hard.”

A deep chuckle escaped from the man’s sexy thin lips. His indulging words easily flowed out, “Then I would need dear baby to give me more guidance.”

Jian Qing’s smile froze at the corner of her mouth. Felt a gust of thunder rolling over her head, she mumbled a question, “Who is… dear baby?”

Quan Jingwu’s brows arched lightly, “Who else other than you?”

Jian Qing cleared her throat awkwardly, “Don’t call me that.”

If Luoluo and Blackjack heard this, she would absolutely lose face.

Quan Jingwu met her gaze evenly and said, “If you can call me Xiaojing, then why can’t I call you dear baby?”

Jian Qing’s eye twitched. She felt as if she had shot herself in the foot. Her tone softened, “Then let’s change it to something else.”

Quan Jingwu lightly shook his head, “I think this one is good.”

“Then what will make you willing to change it?” Jian Qing surrendered.

“Will you give yourself to me?” Quan Jingwu raised the point again.

Jian Qing choked, finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, “You sneaky brigand.”

She pushed away his flawless handsome face with her cool hand, “I’m hungry. It’s time to eat.”

Can this be taken as a yes?

Quan Jingwu leaned back and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Jian Qing glanced at Quan Jingwu, she lost to him once again.

She really wanted to punch someone. What should she do?

…

Upon returning to the office, Xiao Lu and Yi Kai immediately start announcing that Jian Qing had come upstairs. This quickly caught the attention of several people who had been busy working.

Mingdong scratched his head, “So, has the Boss successfully won over his wife?”

“Sort of, but on the other hand, not really.” Xiao Lu, who had a keen eye, picked up on some nuances from observing how those two interacted in the office just now.

Fu Heng asked, “What do you mean?”

“I’d say the Boss hasn’t really won over his wife yet. Their current relationship is probably more than friends but less than lovers.” As expected of the seasoned vet Yi Kai, his words struck right to the heart of the matter.

Qin Rui reminded them, “Anyway, the day the Boss wins over his wife isn’t far off. Don’t forget about our bet.”

“Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. We’ll see who wins.” Su Cheng responded.

Yi Kai smirked, “Can I interpret that as you wishing that the Boss won’t be able to win over his wife?”

Su Cheng was left speechless, “…”

“Haozi, why are you buying all these online?” Mingdong glanced down and saw the half-opened package on Shen Hao’s desk with its pink cover which gave him the creeps.

Yi Kai was very excited about these things. He quickly opened the package, revealing its contents to everyone.

A pile of books were dumped onto the desk.

Fu Heng quickly picked up one of them. Seeing the title, his face – full of disapproval, said “How to See Through Her Heart”.

They all silently turned to look at the calm Shen Hao, “What are you using these for?”

Not just him, everyone had a look of astonishment on their faces.

“One Hundred Ways to Chase Your Wife”, “Points to Note on a Date”, “The Secret to Keeping Love Fresh”.

And to top it all off, “How to Guess Your Girlfriend’s Thoughts”, what are all these?

“Haozi, tell us the truth, is there something going on with you?” Xiao Lu placed a hand on his shoulder and asked.

Shen Hao brushed away his hand and gave them a cold glance, “What could possibly be going on? I’m either hanging out with you guys or working overtime and traveling for business. Where would I have time for ‘something’?”

Upon reflection, the group found his argument to be sound.

“Then who are these books for?” Zeng Hang asked.

“Of course, they are for the Boss.” Shen Hao gave them a ‘you must be stupid’ look, “It’s rare for the Boss to have a romance, we should help him.”

“Yo, Haozi, I didn’t expect you to have such a thoughtful side!” Yi Kai laughed so hard he had to lean on Xiao Lu for support.

“Get lost!” Shen Hao retorted.

“Do you think the Boss will read these books?” Zeng Hang expressed his doubt.

“If he doesn’t want to read them, he can throw them away.” Shen Hao shrugged. He wasn’t certain himself.

“Good luck.” Su Cheng said, barely suppressing his laughter.

After setting down the book in his hand, Yi Kai already had an image in his mind of Shen Hao being stared down by the Boss. He sighed, “Shen Hao, you’ll never return from your cold and lonely journey!”

“Shut up!” Shen Hao kicked him.

A burst of laughter erupted in the office. Good thing the soundproofing here was excellent. Otherwise, if the people downstairs heard, they might think they’d gone mad.
