I’ll Butcher Pigs to Support You! 114

Chapter 114: Modern Extra [5]

The CEO’s office was large and bright, very spacious. Even with an extra desk, it didn’t feel crowded.

Song Yugui was completely dumbfounded after being led in. She had never received such special treatment before.

From at first mistakenly thinking that the CEO disliked her, to… now becoming the CEO’s confidante.

The change was a little too fast.

Not used to it, really not used to it.

“What are you thinking about?”

Song Yugui sat blankly behind her new desk, lost in thought, and was pulled back by the CEO’s slightly displeased voice.

She suddenly thought, Does moving in mean that I can’t slack off or sneak snacks anymore? I have to work seriously under the beautiful boss’s supervision at all times.

Thinking of this, half the sky collapsed.

So painful.

Song Yugui’s heart was like dead ashes. She bit her thin lip. Wait, my good days are over? My partner is also gone?

She looked out the glass window at her equally heartbroken colleague. The other couldn’t see her but inadvertently made eye contact with her through the glass. It was clear that they were both very reluctant to part with each other.

Shen Xizhi saw the “loving” gaze between the two of them, and she was so angry she was about to explode.

What does that mean? Am I the Queen Mother who is obstructing you from being together?! You bastard, Song Yugui!

She cursed in her heart, and her face also suddenly turned cold. She stepped on her seven-centimeter high heels and blocked Song Yugui’s flirtatious gaze.

“What are you looking at?”

Her voice was sinister, very scary.

Song Yugui instantly came to her senses and sat up straight. She couldn’t possibly tell the CEO that she was mourning her slacking life, could she?

She could only lower her head with great guilt and say in a small voice, “N-nothing. I was just thinking of going out to get my things in a little while.”

She had come in, but her things were still outside.

Shen Xizhi glanced at her original desk and said coldly, “I’ll go with you to get them.”

Li Linxi inexplicably felt a chill on her back and silently sat up straight.

Mr. Shen was now very wary of this employee and was unwilling to give the two of them a chance to be alone.

The moment Song Yugui came out, she also followed her out.

She looked at Li Linxi coldly.

Li Linxi sensed that the chilly feeling had returned. She frowned and looked up, inadvertently making eye contact with the CEO.

The coldness in the other’s eyes made her: !!!

Did I offend the CEO? It can’t be. I didn’t do anything.

“Linxi, I’m here to pack my things.”

Song Yugui opened her mouth and also took a piece of bread from Li Linxi’s desk.

Li Linxi: …

As if enlightened, she suddenly understood.

In order to keep her not-so-busy yet high-paying job, she feigned coldness. “Oh, hurry up and pack. I’ve long since gotten tired of sitting with you.”

Song Yugui: ?

“What’s wrong with you?”

She was surprised.

Li Linxi’s expression was unchanged. “I’m telling the truth. You should hurry up and pack your things and go with Mr. Shen. I’m still waiting for a new deskmate!”

Their desks were right next to each other, and they often called each other ‘deskmate’.

Song Yugui glanced at her speechlessly, not knowing what she was suddenly making a fuss about. But the temperature around her seemed to have warmed up again, as if she didn’t need to order a small blanket anymore.

She packed her things one by one. Shen Xizhi insisted on helping her, so she let her help to move the documents. She also had no complaints and lowered her head to obediently listen to her.

Some of her colleagues secretly gave her a thumbs-up. Amazing. She even dares to command the CEO.

By the time the office was tidied up, it was already three o’clock. A little more slacking off and it would be time to get off work.

Song Yugui quietly opened WeChat on her computer and saw that her good partner had sent her a message. “Have you noticed that the CEO is jealous of us?”

She was silent for a moment and sent back a shocked question mark.

What kind of words were these? What do you mean, ‘jealous of us’?

That’s Mr. Shen, a true rich and beautiful woman. Jealous of us? You really dare to think.

Seeing her reply, Li Linxi typed a long, long paragraph, explaining why the CEO was always so capricious, because the two of them were simply too close, which made the CEO very unhappy!

Song Yugui’s eyes widened in shock. Nonsense! You’re ruining her reputation!

She typed without hesitation, “I don’t believe it. You’re exaggerating.”

The CEO couldn’t possibly care about these small matters! She’s just like the domineering presidents in the novels, purely capricious!

“It’s true! Mr. Shen was just glaring at me!”

“Isn’t it normal for her to glare at you? She glares at me too.”

Mr. Shen, as a noble and cold domineering president, will glare at everyone when she’s in a bad mood. What’s so great about her glaring at you? It’s nothing for her to glare at me either!

Li Linxi: …

Forget it. There was nothing to say to such a slow person.

“I’ll send you a few more GL novels in a little while. You can read them at night.”

She loved to read novels. Song Yugui sent an “OK” but requested, “A little sweeter, and it has to be finished.”

After a while of slacking off, time passed quickly again. She saw that it was almost time to get off work and only then urgently started to work.

When it was time to get off work, the special assistant knocked on the door and came in.

He came in triumphantly, but when he saw Song Yugui working in the CEO’s office, his triumphant air disappeared without a trace. He widened his eyes in surprise. Wait, why are you in here?

She didn’t have to work overtime today. Song Yugui happily packed her things and prepared to go home.

Shen Xizhi was so angry seeing her like this that her face turned colder and colder. In the end, she couldn’t hold it in and walked over, chiding her angrily.

“Sleep, sleep! Today, as you wish, you can go home and sleep!”

She said angrily, took her bag, and left. Special Assistant Chen looked at the development of the situation with a bewildered expression.

He had also originally thought that Song Yugui had lost her favor and that he had been remembered again. But now that he looked, it didn’t seem so.

“I’m going to accompany the CEO to a social gathering. The company is not working overtime today. You can go back early.”

Not knowing what to say, he had no choice but to throw out a polite sentence and turn to chase after the CEO.

Song Yugui saw the car keys on the table and suddenly thought of something. She chased after him and gave the keys to Special Assistant Chen, telling him that this was the CEO’s car and for him to drive the CEO there.

Mr. Shen had said that she had already fired her own driver and hadn’t brought a second car. She couldn’t possibly wrong her by having her take the special assistant’s car.

The CEO’s car smelled fragrant.

Unlike the special assistant’s.

Shen Xizhi waited in the garage for a while but didn’t see Song Yugui come back on her word. Instead, she saw Special Assistant Chen come over with the car keys she had given to Song Yugui.

“CEO, is this the car?”

The car lights flashed. He was just about to go and open the door when he heard the CEO say coldly, “No.”

Then she took out a new car key from her bag, turned around, and opened the back seat of a white Maserati, telling Special Assistant Chen to come and drive and also asking him for the car keys Song Yugui had given him.

That was her car.

In Shen Xizhi’s heart, it was already a car for just the two of them. She didn’t want anyone else to sit in it.

You bastard, Song Yugui! You actually just gave the car keys to someone else.

She was so angry.

Special Assistant Chen didn’t know why the CEO’s expression was so ugly and got into the car with trepidation to act as the driver. He wanted to say something to please his boss, but Mr. Shen had only just come on board, and he knew nothing about her.

He could only shut his mouth.

Shen Xizhi was also unwilling to talk to others.

She wanted to take Song Yugui. She just wanted her to sit on the side and eat properly. But she was actually unwilling to come!

She was so angry she didn’t want to talk.

It was also a good thing that Special Assistant Chen was quiet, or her heart would have been even more annoyed.

Song Yugui didn’t know about Mr. Shen’s annoyance. Being able to go home on time and not have to send her boss off, she was even a little unaccustomed to it. She happily got into her little pink car and went home, lying on the sofa and ordering her favorite takeout.

Usually, she would cook a little, but the recent disgusting work had left her very tired. She didn’t want to do it and just lay on the sofa and closed her eyes to rest.

After a while, she turned on the TV to watch a variety show.

There was nothing much to see on the variety show. She had come back too early and felt that there was still plenty of time.

She had gotten home at almost six o’clock, and by the time the takeout arrived, it was almost seven. She glanced at the time and couldn’t help but think, What stage is Mr. Shen’s cooperation at? What time will it end?

In the past, when they were together, it would always end around ten o’clock, because it was always Shen Xizhi who was talking. She would just serve Mr. Shen food and pour her wine. With Special Assistant Chen there, it might be a little faster.

Song Yugui thought to herself, but at ten o’clock at night, she received a call from the special assistant.

Her first reaction was, Damn it, I have to work overtime again.

She answered the phone, her voice listless. “Aren’t you at a social gathering with Mr. Shen?”

How can you still think of ways to torment people?

Of course she didn’t think it was Mr. Shen who had asked him to call and torment her. Although Mr. Shen was a little cold, her personality was good.

The special assistant on the other end of the phone had an anxious tone. “You have to come to Yunhua Restaurant right now. Mr. Shen is drunk.”

This was the restaurant with a rather classical charm that she had gone to with Mr. Shen last time.

Hearing that Shen Xizhi was drunk, Song Yugui immediately got up. She moved faster than her brain could think. Almost without thinking, as she picked up her car keys, she also flipped through her outer garments, already preparing to go out.

Her mouth only followed later, her brow furrowed as she asked, “With you there, how could you let Mr. Shen get drunk? If Mr. Shen wants to drink, you should stop her!”

She had been counting on the special assistant to drink for Shen Xizhi. If he couldn’t drink, what was the use of him?

The special assistant was so anxious that, on one hand, he was afraid that the CEO would smash another cup or chopsticks, and on the other, he was defending himself with a mournful face. “I tried to stop her! The CEO insisted on drinking! She wouldn’t listen to me at all!”

He was a subordinate. How could he control the CEO?

“Anyway, you should hurry up and come over. The CEO is drunk and is calling your name!”

Song Yugui’s movements paused for a moment. Calling my name? The CEO, she…

“Alright, I know. I’ll be right there.”

She hung up the phone, went downstairs, and drove. Special Assistant Chen also guiltily put away his phone. What he hadn’t said was that the CEO had indeed been calling Song Yugui’s name, but… they were not good words.

“Song Yugui, you bastard!”

“I hate you, Song Yugui…”

“Don’t you appear in front of me again! I’m so annoyed with you!”

Special Assistant Chen listened numbly, really not knowing how Song Yugui had managed to make the CEO so angry for no reason. No wonder he had a chance to shine.

But to have made the CEO angry, yet still be working in the CEO’s office.

It was too surprising. He didn’t know what the CEO was thinking.

He also didn’t know if he was right to have called Song Yugui over.

Forget it. It’s better for my friend to die than for me. If she has to die, then let her.

Hearing the CEO still cursing Song Yugui, Special Assistant Chen said in a small voice, “CEO, please wait a little longer. I’ve already notified Yugui. She’ll be here soon.”

Shen Xizhi was not the type to get red when she drank. Even though she was drunk now, her small face was still pale and tender. Her slender, water-onion-like fingers supported her head. Hearing this, she turned her head slightly and said coldly, “Who told you to call that bastard over? I don’t want to see her! Tell her to leave!”

Special Assistant Chen: …

If you don’t see her, then you can go with me. Let me take you back!

He was already starting to think if it was right for a person to want to advance further.

Getting no reply, Shen Xizhi was full of displeasure. She suddenly threw another plate with great force, and the soup and the white porcelain plate splashed on the ground. She said fiercely, with a drunken haze, “Can’t you hear me? Tell her to leave! I don’t want to see her!”

Special Assistant Chen: …

I told you to drink less, QAQ.

He had no choice but to agree, saying alright, alright, and that he would have Song Yugui leave in a little while and not have her come over.

Shen Xizhi seemed satisfied. She lowered her head and held her forehead, not speaking, but she would still occasionally mutter a couple of curses at Song Yugui.

Special Assistant Chen quickly received a call back from Song Yugui. “Which floor? Room number.”

He nimbly gave her the room number, just hoping that the CEO would be sober tomorrow and wouldn’t remember what had happened today, and wouldn’t know that he had disobeyed her orders.

There was no other way. He couldn’t accompany the CEO here all night. If he didn’t get the CEO home safely, he felt that his little life would be in danger.

Song Yugui anxiously asked where the room was, then ran up. The moment she pushed open the door, she saw Shen Xizhi sitting in the main seat, one hand supporting her head, her eyes lowered, very quiet, not looking as if she were drunk at all. And where was she looking for her?

Seeing her, Special Assistant Chen was almost about to cry with joy. “You’re finally here! Mr. Shen won’t go with me. She keeps calling your name. I feel like she’ll only go if you’re here.”

The special assistant was guilty, afraid that Shen Xizhi would suddenly say another curse.

Song Yugui squatted down and cautiously patted the CEO’s back. “Mr. Shen? Mr. Shen, are you still sober? Can you still walk?”

Shen Xizhi’s long, slender lashes blinked. She lowered her head blankly. When she saw Song Yugui, her expression paused for a moment, then she suddenly pouted and said with a wronged expression, “Why did you take so long to come?”

Special Assistant Chen was shocked. Hmm? That’s not what you said just now! Didn’t you not want her to come? And you even smashed things and cursed her!

The moment Song Yugui heard Mr. Shen’s words, her heart, which was already hard, softened. She stroked the CEO’s back, her voice extremely gentle. “I came late. Why did you drink so much? Didn’t I tell you to take the special assistant to block drinks for you?”

She glanced at Special Assistant Chen, her whole person exuding an air of ‘how can you not even block a drink properly? You’re so useless.’

Special Assistant: …

I’m numb. It was clearly the CEO who insisted on drinking. I couldn’t stop her at all!

Just as Special Assistant Chen was about to explain himself, he heard the CEO’s voice with a slight sob. “He didn’t help me block.”

Special Assistant Chen: ???

I didn’t help you block?

A great injustice from a June snow!

Song Yugui was angry. “You’re the CEO! You told him to block for you, and he actually dared not to? I’ll fire him tomorrow!”

Shen Xizhi was really drunk. After she got drunk, she wanted to be even closer to Song Yugui, to kiss and hug her, and not to make her angry. Hearing her questioning with a displeased tone, she subconsciously pushed the blame and, with a dazed little head, fell forward into her embrace, not forgetting to say in a small voice, “Mmm, alright. I’ll fire him.”

Special Assistant Chen: …

Do you have to be like this?

He looked at Song Yugui with a pleading expression.

Song Yugui glared at him angrily, clearly believing Mr. Shen’s words and thinking that he hadn’t taken good care of her.

Special Assistant Chen: Forget it. I’m tired. Just destroy it.

After glaring at him, she looked at Shen Xizhi with a bit more gentleness. “I’ll take you back. Can we not go to social gatherings tomorrow?”

Shen Xizhi nodded obediently. The drunk Mr. Shen and the sober one were two completely different personalities. Song Yugui breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Mr. Shen would also be cold even when she was drunk.

That would be very tricky and hard to handle.

“Come, I’ll help you.”

She carefully held Shen Xizhi’s waist, put her arm over her own shoulder, and then ordered the special assistant, “Come and help me. What are you waiting for?”

The special assistant was about to go over and help her when, who would have thought, Shen Xizhi actually dodged him, her tone as timid as if she were not herself. “Don’t… don’t touch me, Yugui-jiejie…”

She hid in the embrace of the person beside her as if she were seeking help.

This one form of address directly hit her soul. Song Yugui was stunned for a long moment, finally held her, and protected her tightly, no longer letting anyone help, and helped Shen Xizhi down by herself.

The special assistant, who had no idea what he had come for and might also be losing his job, was speechless.

The private room was a mess, with broken bowls and dishes everywhere. Song Yugui helped her to the first floor and then went to pay.

She hadn’t had a chance to look in the private room just now. When she was paying, the waiter took a picture and showed it to her. Only then did she know how many plates Mr. Shen had smashed in her drunken state.

Of course she had to pay for these plates. For some reason, she inexplicably didn’t want others to pay for Shen Xizhi, even if the other’s salary was higher than hers. She valued money a lot, but she couldn’t.

She seemed to feel from the bottom of her heart that she should be the one to clean up Shen Xizhi’s mess.

But this restaurant was also very famous in Huai City. It was conceivable that those bowls and dishes were not cheap. Song Yugui had to bleed a lot. When she returned to the hall, Shen Xizhi was craning her neck, looking for someone.

She quickly walked over. The other saw her, and her nervous expression finally relaxed. She threw herself into her embrace, her tone wronged. “Where did you go? I thought you had left me here.”

The drunk Mr. Shen was so obedient and clingy, it really opened one’s eyes.

Song Yugui softened her tone and gently patted Mr. Shen’s back to coax her. “I wouldn’t. I came specially to pick you up. How could I leave you here?”

Shen Xizhi didn’t believe her, her small mouth pouting. “All you know is to sleep. You’re not even willing to accompany me more. How could you specially come to pick me up?”

Speaking of sleeping, Song Yugui thought of her beautiful night that had gone up in smoke. But what could she do? She couldn’t not come and pick up Mr. Shen. Mr. Shen was drunk. She wouldn’t be at ease leaving her alone with a man.

Song Yugui had really worried herself sick.

“I won’t sleep anymore. Sleeping is not as important as picking you up. The special assistant said you were drunk. How could I still be able to sleep?”

Sigh.

Sleeping is not as important as me?

Shen Xizhi tilted her head, as if digesting this sentence. Her drunken brain was really very slow. By the time she had finally figured it out, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She said I was important!

Song Yugui’s thoughts were not as slow as hers. Knowing that she was drunk, she didn’t wait for her reply and just helped her up again. “I’ll take you back to your house.”

Shen Xizhi was particularly sensitive to the words ‘back to your house’. She had just been obedient in her embrace for a while when she started to make a fuss, muttering, “I don’t want to go back to your house! I want to go to your house!”

Song Yugui: …

Do you know what you’re saying? Anyway, I didn’t understand.

“What?”

She was bewildered and asked again, “Shall we go to your house?”

Shen Xizhi resisted again. “No, no! I want to be with you!”

The drunk Mr. Shen was really very hard to handle.

Song Yugui hadn’t understood what she meant at first. After asking a few more times, she finally understood, but she couldn’t quite believe it. “You mean, you want to go home with me?”

Shen Xizhi leaned against her embrace, being half-held as she walked, and obediently nodded. “Mmm…”

I want to go home with her.

The drunk Xizhi couldn’t hold too many things in her brain and had long since forgotten about things like being reserved and saving face. She just wanted to cling to her, cling to the person she liked the most.

Song Yugui helped her into the back seat of the car and was about to get in the car herself to have a good chat with her when, who would have thought, she would provoke Shen Xizhi’s dissatisfaction again. “Where are you going? I don’t want to sit in the back! I want to sit with you!”

She had thought it would be more comfortable to sit in the back.

But if she said this to a drunk person, the drunk person would definitely not understand.

Song Yugui just obediently did as she was asked.

Shen Xizhi successfully moved from the back to the passenger seat. Being bent over and having her seatbelt fastened, she was still a little dazed. “Mmm… can’t I sit on your lap?”

What? You still want to sit on my lap?

“No. I have to drive. You can sit by yourself for a while.”

Rejected? She has to drive. Alright then.

Shen Xizhi agreed with a wronged expression and shrank into the passenger seat. Song Yugui’s wrist was on the steering wheel, and she hesitated. “Why don’t I just take you back to your house? Otherwise, if you wake up tomorrow and are angry with me?”

Mr. Shen was capricious. Who knows, she might just get angry.

Mr. Shen lived in such a large villa. Would she be able to stand her small apartment?

Shen Xizhi took a while to understand again, then she shook her head, her cheeks puffed out. “I won’t be angry.”

She wouldn’t be angry. She just wanted to go to Song Yugui’s house.

“Tsk, what you say now doesn’t count. What if you don’t acknowledge it tomorrow when you’re sober?”

Shen Xizhi tried her best to stick her snowy white little face in front of her, her voice soft and sweet. “I won’t not acknowledge it.”

Song Yugui looked at that face that was so pale it was glowing, and her fingers rubbed a couple of times. Her hand was a little itchy.

But she held it in.

What if the CEO remembers what happened during her drunken state when she wakes up tomorrow?

At that time, she would have to release her cold air and freeze her to death.

“My house is very small, probably not even as big as your room.”

Looking at the layout of that villa, she felt it was very possible.

Shen Xizhi shook her head. She also didn’t speak, just shook her head.

Song Yugui asked, “What does shaking your head mean? You’re not going to my house?”

She was glared at.

She asked again, “Still want to go?”

Only then did Shen Xizhi nod, her cheeks puffed up and fleshy.

Cute.

Song Yugui tried to persuade her a few more times, but the other refused to go back to her own home no matter what and insisted on going home with her. Her heart was conflicted for who knows how long. It was only when she heard Shen Xizhi say in a daze, “There’s… no one at home,” that she finally agreed.

She agreed to take her drunk, beautiful boss home. She agreed to take good care of her tonight.

A faint smile appeared on Shen Xizhi’s lips, and she obediently sat in the passenger seat.

Before she went over, she had thought that a drunk boss would be very hard to handle. After they met, she hadn’t expected that she was still very easy to handle.

She was very good. As long as she went along with her, she wouldn’t make a fuss, and she would even smile at you occasionally. So cute.

Song Yugui thought to herself.

Her house was soon reached. She parked the car in the garage, then got out to help her.

Shen Xizhi was clearly still a little lucid in her drunken state, her beautiful eyes looking at the unfamiliar scenery with curiosity.

She was asked again, “You’re really not going back to your own home?”

She turned her head and threw herself into the person beside her’s embrace, her voice not heavy but very firm. “I’m not going back. I miss you.”
