Chapter 42  : His Boss Took His Chocolates

“Are you done for the day?” Qi Shaodong felt curious and confused at the same time.

His workaholic boss was actually leaving the office early today.

Gu Nianshen raised his eyebrows. “Is there a problem?”

Qi Shaodong immediately shook his head. “No.”

He would not dare to question his boss.

Gu Nianshen did not speak further as he proceeded to leave. His gaze unintentionally landed on an intricately designed golden box on Qi Shaodong’s table.

He walked over to take a closer look, thereafter pointing at the three golden boxes. “Are these chocolates from Qian Si?”

Qi Shaodong was surprised that his cold and distant boss seemed to be interested in chocolates. “Yes, they are. Do you like them too?”

Gu Nianshen picked one of the boxes up to examine it. “They’ve changed their packaging,” he mumbled to himself.

Qi Shaodong realized that his boss must really like the chocolates. “My friend shipped them over from overseas. They are not easy to find. Would you like to try one?”

Qi Shaodong picked up another box and was prepared to open it.

Suddenly, Gu Nianshen snatched it away from him.

“Ehh…”

Before Qi Shaodong could react, Gu Nianshen picked up the remaining box on the table as well. He held onto the three boxes of chocolates with one hand.

Gu Nianshen then started walking away.

Qi Shaodong blinked his eyes as he stood still.

What had just happened? Had his cool and distant boss just took three boxes of his chocolates away right in front of him?

Those chocolates were gifts from his girlfriend from overseas. She had lined up for hours to buy them for him. Gu Nianshen should have at least left one box or even a single piece of chocolate for him.

What if Qi Shaodong’s girlfriend asked him whether the chocolate tasted good and if he liked them? How would he answer her?

Gu Nianjia saw Gu Nianshen from afar as she waved at him while she walked. However, Gu Nianshen did not seem to notice her.

Gu Nianjia was very close to him by then. However, he still seemed like he was searching for someone at the entrance.

Naturally, Gu Nianjia thought that he was looking for her. She chuckled at his funny appearance. Gu Nianjia started waving her hand right in front of Gu Nianshen’s face. “Brother, I’m here. Where are you looking at?”

Gu Nianshen did not respond to her.

A tall and familiar figure finally appeared in the crowd. His eyes suddenly lit up.

He then looked at Gu Nianjia and asked coldly, “Did you plan to meet up with Lin Yiqian?”

Gu Nianjia immediately seemed disgusted. “Why would I do that?”

She would be crazy to meet up with that annoying woman.

Gu Nianjia rolled her eyes at Gu Nianshen. All of a sudden, she noticed a familiar figure from the corner of her eyes. Her jaws dropped instantly.

Lin Yiqian had walked out of the entrance. When she saw Gu Nianshen and Gu Nianjia, she was equally surprised. She halted for a moment before proceeding to move forward.

When Lin Yiqian got close enough, Gu Nianjia began insulting her. “Lin Yiqian, why are you haunting us?”

Lin Yiqian pretended to look confused. “Why do you say so?”

Was Gu Nianjia blaming Lin Yiqian for getting on a flight that landed around the same time?

Gu Nianjia knew that she was acting. “You are so annoying. My brother was actually treating me nicely. I was even ready to share a video on the internet to let everyone know how nice my brother is.”

Gu Nianjia felt bummed right now.

This woman was way too annoying.

While Gu Nianjia lost her temper, Lin Yiqian remained calm and composed as always. “Oh.”
