Chapter 39: Secretary? Spy?:
The duo returned to the car. Shen Qingxin sat in the passenger seat.
"Miss Bai is famous in Luo City. She's beautiful and comes from a good family," Shen Qingxin said. "I remember you used to chase after her?"
Her casual tone couldn't hide jealousy.
"Ahem, I was immature back then."
"Do you still have feelings for her?" Shen Qingxin pressed on.
Yun Bufan knew if he immediately denied it, it would sound like a lie. He pretended to be silent until Shen Qingxin showed signs of impatience, then said, "Miss Bai is great, but she's not right for me. I'm not the same Yun Bufan as before. I'll treat you well from now on."
Hearing this, Shen Qingxin smiled beautifully.
"If you treat me well, I won't let you do it for nothing."
Yun Bufan's throat went dry. A stunning beauty was openly tempting him. Damn, who could resist this?
In the original novel, Su Chen never managed to win over Shen Qingxin. Why was she so forward now? And in broad daylight too?
"Wishful thinking. I'm not that easy," Shen Qingxin said, her red lips curling before she planted a kiss on his cheek.
"Hehe, my wife smells so nice," Yun Bufan said, touching his cheek with a grin.
"Hmph!" Shen Qingxin snorted lightly, her eyes downcast and her expression calm. However, the blush on her cheeks betrayed her true feelings.
Afterward, he sent Shen Qingxin back to the Shen family to assure her safety and then drove to the company. He had to look up the location of the Yun family company on a map.
As soon as he arrived and was about to get out of the car, a notification sounded.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the villain mission! This mission rewards you with one billion yuan in cash and a mind-reading skill]
[This skill works as follows: as long as you have physical contact with someone, you can read their thoughts]
Damn! Yun Bufan slapped his thigh. This system was too delayed. If he had gotten the mind-reading skill earlier, he could have used it on Shen Qingxin to know what she was thinking in the car. Such a great skill had to be used wisely.
Just as he entered the company, Yun Biao came over with a smile.
"Bufan, let me introduce you to your secretary."
A tall young woman in a smoky gray suit with a high ponytail walked over. Yun Bufan knew there had to be something fishy about this secretary.
"Providing me a secretary, Second Uncle? You're too thoughtful!" Yun Bufan said nonchalantly as he headed to the CEO's office.
"She'll inform you about the company's affairs. I have some business to attend to," Yun Biao said, giving the secretary a meaningful look before leaving in a hurry.
Yun Bufan leaned back in the leather chair, propping his feet on the desk, looking completely nonchalant.
"Hey, secretary, what's your name?" he asked.
The secretary glared at him. "I'm a secretary, not a mistress."
"A secretary, abbreviated as 'mistress,' isn't that right?" Yun Bufan said shamelessly.
The female secretary bit her lip. This guy was even more of a useless fool than she had thought. She couldn't understand why Bing Jie wanted her to deal with such trash.
Taking a deep breath to suppress her anger, she said, "My name is Zhen Xiaoxiao."
"Really small?" Yun Bufan raised an eyebrow, his gaze falling on her breasts. "Yes, pretty small."
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Zhen Xiaoxiao exclaimed. "My surname is Zhen, and my given name is from the line 'Spring slumber unaware of dawn'!"
Zhen Xiaoxiao felt like she was going crazy.
Yun Bufan waved his hand impatiently. "Got it. Make me a cup of coffee."
"Don't you want to know about the company first?" Zhen Xiaoxiao asked.
"Not interested."
"Make the coffee quickly, or I'll dock your pay," Yun Bufan said lazily.
Zhen Xiaoxiao had no choice but to go to the break room. "Damn Yun Bufan, what a waste of space!" she muttered as she walked.
After a few steps, she turned to the glass and looked at herself. "Am I really that small? Not at all! I'm a C cup!"
"That idiot doesn't just have a bad brain, he has bad eyes too!" Zhen Xiaoxiao adjusted her bra to enhance her figure before going to make the coffee.
When she brought the coffee back, Yun Bufan said, "It's too hot. Cool it down for me."
"Can't you do it yourself!" Zhen Xiaoxiao snapped.
"You're the secretary. Serving me is your job, or you can get lost," Yun Bufan said with a smile.
"Damned guy!" Zhen Xiaoxiao wished she could smash Yun Bufan's head. But to complete the task Bing Jie assigned her, she had to endure.
Zhen Xiaoxiao bent down and blew on the coffee to cool it. Yun Bufan took the cup, but just as he was about to drink, he frowned.
"I suddenly don't want coffee anymore. Make me some tea."
Zhen Xiaoxiao slammed her hand on the desk. "Are you messing with me?"
"No, I just remembered I'm allergic to coffee," Yun Bufan said with a grin.
Zhen Xiaoxiao had no choice but to make tea. When she returned with the tea, Yun Bufan suddenly stood up. Catching her off guard, he grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the desk.
"Mr. Yun, what are you doing!" Zhen Xiaoxiao tried to restrain her urge to hit him.
Yun Bufan smirked. "Who sent you?"
"I don't understand what you're talking about!" Zhen Xiaoxiao's expression changed slightly, but she tried to stay calm.
At that moment, Yun Bufan activated his mind-reading skill. Zhen Xiaoxiao's thoughts echoed in his mind.
‘Does he know Bing Jie sent me? No way! How could he know?’
Yun Bufan smiled. So, she was one of Senior Sister Qin Bing's subordinates. Heh, the mastermind must be that bastard Su Chen.
