Liang Zexun is the company’s golden bachelor.
This is the most common topic that Li Baisheng often hears from his female colleagues.
Although Li Baisheng does not want to admit it, Liang Zexun is indeed the first choice for marriage among unmarried women in the company.
Liang Zexun is a good leader and has a great family background. He is also the director of the company at such a young age and will inherit this company in the future.
If one was able to climb up the big tree called Liang Zexun, then the person would surely be the embodiment of flying onto a branch and becoming a phoenix.
Only then did Li Baisheng realize that he is actually someone that had flown onto a branch and turned into a phoenix…
He kept listening to his female colleagues discussing and gossiping every day about how good Liang Zexun is, and various kinds of envy towards the person who will be the young madam of Liang’s family in the future.
Silently, the ‘future young madam’ that will marry the dashing and loaded Liang Zexun expressed in his heart: His family’s comrade Liang is really popular, thus ordinary rank people should stop your delusions. Comrade Liang is already his family’s!
After half a month passed, Li Baisheng found himself once again facing his female colleagues in the office while they were discussing about Liang Zexun.
His face had a just-right expression on, but he was going crazy in his heart.
Who says Liang Zexun has a good temper! Didn’t you see how he scared the new assistant to tears!
Who said Liang Zexun is probably a good husband at home! That good husband can only cook ham and egg noodles!
Who said that he looks like a person that will love his wife dearly! Obviously he…
..loves his husband dearly.
After another half a month…
“Hey, Director Liang is so handsome, I really wish to marry him.”
Liang Zexun really can attract these young girls’ attention. As a mature and stable type like him, he truly is the first choice that girls would think of when it comes to marriage!
The above is Li Baisheng’s inner theater.

Before the big drama of workplace romance even played in his mind, Li Baisheng had a sudden thought.
Is it really good for Comrade Liang to keep ‘attracting bees and butterflies’ in the company!?
Truly not acting like someone with a husband!
2.
However, today, Comrade Liang who does not act like one with a husband is celebrating his birthday.
Li Baisheng also had thought over for Comrade Liang’s birthday gift, thinking that after Comrade Liang received the gift, maybe they could brew sauce again tonight. Maybe he could try the posture he saw two days ago too?

At the same time, Comrade Liang who was working on the documents in his office suddenly felt chills behind his back. His overworked waist from last night also felt a little sore.
However, before Li Baisheng could book a reservation at a restaurant for tonight, someone from the office suggested for everyone to celebrate Director Liang’s birthday together.
The proposal for everyone to celebrate Director Liang’s birthday came from a woman in the office who is usually very capable. Due to her straight-forward nature, everyone had a good relationship with her.
Since it was uncertain whether Director Liang, who had never attended any gatherings, would agree to this matter, everyone was afraid to knock on his office door and ask him.
Therefore, Li Baisheng, who seemed to have a good relationship with Director Liang, was pushed out to take on the ‘heavy responsibility’.
“Come in,” Hearing the knock on the door, Liang Zexun still did not raise his head while he continued his work
“Our Director Liang is so serious.” Director Liang, who is working hard, suddenly felt something heavy on his back. When he raised his head, he was suddenly nipped at the ears.
“What’s wrong?” Liang Zexun moved uncomfortably on his seat. Finally, Li Baisheng’s hand that was stretched out and heading downwards to his waist made him freeze for a while.
“They are thinking of celebrating your birthday together today!” At last, Li Baisheng stopped and rubbed his waist.
“I have never attended a company party.” Although he is the object of fantasy for every female staff, no one dares to face his ‘glacial eyes’ and invite him for activities.
“Then, I’m inviting you now. Will you go?” The movement of his hand has changed from rubbing to stroking him. Li Baisheng also had let go of his bitten earlobes where there are bite marks now.
“En…Okay,” Liang Zexun couldn’t help but gasp. Then, he noticed that the hand on his waist was gone, and Li Baisheng, who was still lying on his back just now, also was standing by the desk.
“Then it’s decided. You are not allowed to slip away on your own after you get off from work.” Li Baisheng opened the door quickly and left before Liang Zexun could react, leaving him stupefied in his seat.
“How is it?!”
“Naturally the answer is,” Under everyone’s expectation gaze, Li Baisheng picked up the cup and slowly said, “Yes .”
“Yeah!”

After having meals at a restaurant, everyone soon headed to the KTV that was booked earlier in advance. As soon as they arrived, a few mic hoggers went ahead to compete for the microphone while the rest were gathered together to play games.
Li Baisheng had managed to block a few glasses of wine for Liang Zexun during dinner. As a result, he was now leaning on the sofa in a daze and watching everyone play while Liang Zexun was sitting next to him. Looking at Li Baisheng’s condition like this, he thought of that night from several years ago.
Looking at the dim light here, just as Liang Zexun planed to seize the opportunity to recreate the scene at that time, a female voice suddenly interrupted him.
“Director Liang, would you like to join and play some games with us?” He had some impression of the woman who had come to invite him. She is a popular person among colleagues and a woman that always strive for self-improvement at the same time.
“No, Li Baisheng is a little intoxicated right now. I will stay here and look after him.”
She wonders if Liang Zexun’s relationship with her new colleague is that close. However, after thinking over it for a while, she felt that Director Liang was only using that as an excuse because he didn’t really want to play games.
“Game? What game?” Li Baisheng was not very drunk yet. Once he heard the word ‘game’, he becomes interested.
“It is the Truth or Dare game. Is Xiao Li interested to come and play together?”

“Okay! Ah Ze, you should also join and play together.” Li Baisheng said while dragging the Liang Zexun that was still sitting on the sofa with no intention of moving to go over there.
Eight people sat down around a table while an empty liquor bottle spins.
At first, the atmosphere was a bit tense due to Liang Zexun joining the game. But after a few rounds of playing, everyone was gradually able to relax.
“How many girlfriends have you had?”
“If the person that you like is in front of you right now, what would you do?”
“Among everyone that’s present here now, who do you think is the laziest?”
…
After half an hour, Li Baisheng had been asked 3 questions, done 20 push-ups, and had robbed the mic from the mic hoggers and roared out a song titled, “A Little Apple”. 3
On the other hand, Liang Zexun who was sitting next to him was not chosen even once. His good luck made his colleague who was punished to confess to a girl in the next private room jealous.
This time it was He Wei’s turn. She was the one who initially suggested for everyone to celebrate together.
“If the person that you like is in front of you right now, what would you say to him?”
“Well, I will say, it’s my fortune for being able to meet you. I wish I could be together with you.”
Under the dim light of the private room, He Wei revealed a bashful expression of a young lady which is different from her usual attitude. Although she didn’t say who it is, the fact that she keeps stealing glances at the opposite Liang Zexun couldn’t be hidden from everyone’s eyes.
The colleagues who originally wanted to seize this opportunity and play matchmaker didn’t dare to take any actions after they saw Liang Zexun’s expressionless face.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
“Lets keep playing, I’ll spin the bottle this time.” Seeing everyone become motionless, Li Baisheng picked up the alcohol bottle on the table and spun it.
The bottle finally slowed down after a few rapid rotations. It was slowly stopping while facing Li Baisheng’s direction.
When everyone was about to laugh at Li Baisheng’s bad luck and ease the atmosphere, the bottle that was about to stop swayed again.
Its mouth went past Li Baisheng and stopped at Liang Zexun’s hand.
Liang Zexun chose ‘Dare’.
This time, it is He Wei’s turn in choosing the content for the dare. Hence, she took a while to think of a dare.
Under everyone’s astonished gaze, she opened her mouth and said, “Choose one person in this room and kiss for more than five seconds.”
Just when everyone was guessing which female colleague will be lucky enough to be ‘favored’ by Director Liang, the next scene caused them to be startled that they feel like their jaws would fall.
Director Liang who was always known as the “Iceberg” unexpectedly actually laughed! Then he turned and kissed Li Baisheng who was sitting next to him.
Originally, they were still wondering if Director Liang’s brain was confused for a while and had kissed the wrong person.
But then everyone saw that Li Baisheng, who was being kissed, instantly gained control of that kiss. The two were kissing fiercely.
“We will go first.”
After dropping that sentence, the two quickly disappeared among the petrified crowd.
As for how fierce the battle that night was, only they themselves knew.
It’s just that there’s a group of people who couldn’t sleep well because they seemed to have come to know an extremely serious fact. The next day, they got the news that Director Liang was feeling unwell and took a day off.
…They seemed to have uncovered something even more incredible.

Footnotes
’Brew sauce’ is.. you know, that thing >///< ’Xiao Li’ is a close way of calling someone. The ‘Li’ refers to Li Baisheng. ”A Little Apple” is a legit song.
