Shu Yian was thinking about making money, and so she was not in the mood to go shopping at the moment. She asked Zhou Yu to leave the bookstore, randomly found a luxury store, and chose a good-looking black dress before hurrying back to the company.

This was the first time Zhou Yu saw a woman who could pick out clothes to buy so quickly. Almost as soon as they entered the store, Shu Yian locked onto a target at a glance, then paid and checked out, without even trying it on.

【People with good figures sure are headstrong.】

【And Miss Shu probably wants to go back so badly because she wants to see President Su.】

It would have been fine if Zhou Yu had not said these things in her heart, but now that she did, it reminded Shu Yian about what happened at noon.

“Zhou Zhou-ah!”

“Yes, Miss Shu!” Zhou Yu, who was suddenly named, was a little nervous. Her super accurate sixth sense told her that Shu Yian calling her this time was not a good thing.

“Do you know what a pure and innocent girl usually thinks when they are in love?” Shu Yian couldn’t call Zhou Yu out directly as after all, she had never actually said them out loud. She could only give a nudge on the side and tactfully make a subtle hint.

Zhou Yu was silent for a while, “A pure girl?”

This question stumped her.

【Let me think.】

【I have never dated before, so I guess I could be considered a pure girl.】

【And if I had a girlfriend, of course, I would want to **** her every day, but I can’t answer Miss Shu like that or else it would make her feel awkward.】

【Then what should I say for a more normal answer?】

“What a pure girl should be thinking is…..”

【Something along the lines of ‘Ah pretty sister, please be more gentle, I can’t take it anymore~’, right?】

“What should they be thinking?” Although Shu Yian heard everything, she still pretended not to know as she prompted Zhou Yu again. She, however, was a little panicked now and was really afraid that Zhou Yu might answer her like that. She herself has a rather thin face and wouldn’t be able to continue this topic if Zhou Yu really did use that answer.

Fortunately, although Zhou Yu had many, many thoughts on the matter, she didn’t show it on her serious face. She just cleared her throat and then said in embarrassment: “What they should be thinking is probably something along the lines of hugging and holding hands….”

【This answer is the most standard answer I can think of. It’s vague yet lacks nothing and other people won’t think my thoughts are too dirty. 】

Shu Yian could only count this as an answer and decided to give Zhou Yu a passing grade.

So she nodded and then said with a serious look: “Yes, you are right. A pure girl will only thing of things like hugging and holding hands but a more vulgar girl would only think about ghs*. Although it’s the same topic, they’re two very different outcomes.” (*T/N: Ghs is chinese slang for porn/all things dirty).

“I believe Zhou Zhou is the first type, a pure girl. You would never think about those colorful thoughts, right?”

Zhou Yu almost choked on her saliva, and coughed a few times before answering: “No, no, I’ve never had those kinds of thoughts.”

【Good lord, does Miss Shu really view me in such a good light?】

【Forget it, it’s probably because Miss Shu is such a good person. Since she thinks I’m so pure, then I can’t let her down. From now on I have to live up to her expectations, my thoughts must be as clean as water!】

Shu Yian patted her on the shoulder. She was very satisfied, so satisfied that she couldn’t possibly be more satisfied.

“Why don’t I treat you to a cup of milk tea?” When the two passed by a milk tea shop, Shu Yian stopped and asked.

Zhou Yu, this brat, other than having a hobby of constantly coming up with fantasies about the people around her, is actually a pretty good person.

She’s sincere and diligent, her looks are good, and she has a well-behaved personality. Such a good girl, why isn’t she the protagonist?

The author really has no eyes.

Zhou Yu did not turn down her offer and happily ordered a cup of honey pomelo milk tea. Both of them returned to the company with a drink in their hands.

Su Wen was in the office, and raised her head after hearing the sound of footsteps, “What took you so long?”

Shu Yian: “…..”

This was considered “long”?

Last time she took two hours to go shopping and then returned to the villa only to have Su Wen think that it was odd she had come back so fast. This time, she only took one hour after eating to visit the bookstore and buy her clothes yet Su Wen said she took too long.

This person is so hard to please.

Su Wen also thought it was strange, why did she suddenly want to see Shu Yian?

She suddenly remembered that Shu Yian had clearly told her at noon that she would spend the entire afternoon shopping with her card, so why did she come back so soon?

【Could it be like Secretary Zhou said, Shu Yian wanted to come back early to see me?】

What the hell?

Shu Yian was a little surprised when she heard this. Did Zhou Yu say something weird to Su Wen again?

How should she ask what happened without making it seem like she doesn’t have a clue what was going on?

While Shu Yian was still thinking, Su Wen spoke first.

“What did you mean by sending me those roses?”

Shu Yian didn’t look closely at first, but only then did she discover that there really are a bunch of flowers on Su Wen’s desk.

“These flowers are not for you!” Although she doesn’t know what happened, she can guess from Su Wen’s thoughts and then from Su Wen’s earlier message about roses. The only reasonable conclusion she had was that a pit must have opened up in Zhou Yu’s brain again and the girl must have bought the flowers and said something to Su Wen.

Su Wen did not seem concerned: “You don’t need to explain, I understand everything.

【Your explanation is merely an act, and if you’re acting you must be trying to cover up a guilty conscience.】

Shu Yian: “…..”

Forget it! Whatever you want to think, you can just think about it!

Anyhow, with Su Wen’s narcissistic personality, the more she tries to explain the more messy it becomes.

Just like when they first met, Su Wen thought that Shu Yian loved her to death. Then after ignoring her for two days, she realized the reality and the matter was let go.

Shu Yian was too lazy to argue over this with her and said, “Give me a laptop!”

But Su Wen still wants to argue about the roses with her.

“I didn’t accept it because of you, it’s because these flowers look good. Therefore, don’t think you’ve gained any good impressions from me and go feeling pleased about yourself.

Shu Yian: “Yup, ok, great, I see, now can you please give me a laptop!”

Su Wen: “….”

【Wait this isn’t right, what’s the matter with this woman? Why is there no response at all?】

【I’ve received her flowers, shouldn’t she be happy? Why is she so impatient instead?】

【Pretending, she must be pretending!】

“No matter how beautiful the flowers are next time, I won’t accept them again, so don’t waste your time and focus on….”

“I want a laptop.” Shu Yian interrupted her directly.

“In two days is Yan Ruxue’s birthday party, so don’t you still need my help? Then let’s negotiate the terms again. Since you don’t want me to disturb you, give me a computer. It’s too boring to just sit there and I might start talking to you. Don’t you want me to be quiet? Give me a laptop and I’ll focus on playing games everyday. I’ll make sure to never turn on the sound and bother you. So what do you think?”

“If you don’t agree, I won’t accompany you to the birthday party. You can find someone else to go with you.”

Su Wen: “…..”

【This woman really is the definition of “give an inch, take a mile”. She keeps adding more and more conditions!】

【Is this even a negotiation? This is obviously a threat!】

【Obviously today, I took you to show my affection in front of Yan Ruxue. If I suddenly change people, am I even human anymore? Do you think Yan Ruxue would really believe me?】

【Really, this woman…】

Su Wen never expected that one day she would be chewed to death by a woman.

“I’ll get one for you tomorrow!” She said coldly with a stern face.

“No! Get one now!” Although she used to play games as an excuse, her intent to write a novel is true. Shu Yian wants to make money, the sooner, the better.

【Dog woman, you dare order me around?】

【Am I, Su Wen, the kind of woman who will be wrapped around your finger because of a few words?! 】

Although Su Wen was thinking this, she picked up the phone, “Find someone to bring a laptop here.”

【I’m not conceding defeat, I just don’t want to bother arguing with you!】
