Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife
Chapter 659 - Seven Comes Before Eight
“I don’t want to think about this now. I haven’t gotten over the person I divorced,” said Sheng Bowen. Although there was no fiery love between him and Hu Ran, they were husband and wife for quite a long time. He couldn’t make himself get another woman right after the divorce.
“If you say so.” Grandpa Sheng returned to his room.
After that Sheng Bowen called Sheng Xiao. “Up for a drink with me? Bring Xiao Qi along.”
“Sure,” said Sheng Xiao.
“I’ll choose the place and send you the location.”
Sheng Xiao was silent for a brief moment. He seemed to be talking to the woman beside him. After ten seconds or so, he said, “The little one wants you to bring your secretary along.”
“How can I ask her? She has her own life.”
“Don’t worry. She’s single. It won’t be inconvenient for her.” Sheng Xiao repeated Mu Qiqi’s words and without waiting for Sheng Bowen to respond, he ended the call.
Sheng Bowen’s eyes widened. Wasn’t it weird for him to call his secretary out for dinner at night? People would think that he’s asking for something else from his secretary.
Those two people were putting him in a difficult position.
However, having dinner together was not the point. Mu Qiqi made a big contribution today. If he couldn’t even fulfill her small request, it would not seem right.
Hence, he forced himself to call Ren Yufei.
He’s praying in his heart that Ren Yufei had already turned off her phone and gone to sleep. However, she answered the call after just one ring.
“CEO Sheng?”
“Yes, it’s me,” Sheng Bowen said in a serious tone. “Are you asleep? Well, Xiao Qi asked me out for dinner, and she asked me to bring you along. She said that you had worked very hard these few days with me. So I want to ask if you’re willing to join us.”
“Sure, tell me the address.” Ren Yufei trusted Sheng Bowen very much. Since Mu Qiqi was going as well, it wouldn’t be too awkward.
“See you later.”
He wondered what Xiao Qi was trying to do. It was so late already. Must she see Secretary Ren? Was she close to her?
Anyhow, Sheng Bowen didn’t think much about it. After he informed Grandpa Sheng that he was going out, he left the mansion.
…
On the other hand, Mu Qiqi, who was sitting beside Sheng Xiao in the front passenger seat, was smiling cheekily. “I can totally picture Third Brother’s face when he calls Secretary Ren.”
“You think there’s something between them?” Sheng Xiao looked at Mu Qiqi helplessly. This little one was so passionate about being a matchmaker.
“Secretary Ren likes Third Brother. I can see that. She admires him from top to bottom. So, I think they may really become a couple. Third Brother doesn’t like a woman like Hu Ran who does not share much experience with him. But Secretary Ren has been by his side, working in the company. They are supporting each other. He wouldn’t be able to resist this type of woman.”
Sheng Xiao didn’t refute. He simply shook his head.
Soon, the couple arrived at the place. To their surprise, Sheng Bowen hadn’t arrived yet and he just let Secretary Ren wait for them alone.
“Chief Sheng, Miss Mu.”
“Since we’re not in the company, don’t be so formal.” Mu Qiqi sat beside Ren Yufei. This girl was so pretty. No wonder she was chosen by Sheng Kai to seduce Sheng Bowen.
“But we have different identities.”
Before they could talk further, Sheng Bowen finally arrived at the hotel. Seeing Ren Yufei, he became very cautious.
“Erm… Have you ordered?”
“You can just drink your wine. I like Secretary Ren very much, so I want to chat with her.” Mu Qiqi helpfully got rid of the awkwardness between them. “Don’t be so stiff. Your CEO is just a man once he’s outside. He also needs to eat, drink, and sleep.”
“You’re the one who asked her out, of course you have to take good care of her.” Sheng Bowen was trying to push the responsibility out.
But Mu Qiqi didn’t take it. She had her ways to treat this loyal sidekick.
“Secretary Ren, you should be older than me, so I’ll call you Sister Yufei.”
“Miss Mu, I’m afraid this is not very appropriate.”
“You’re still single, right? Let’s go out together and have fun sometimes. And you can also see the messy lifestyle of your CEO outside of work.”
Sheng Bowen was much relaxed after swallowing a glass of wine. He was not bothered by Mu Qiqi’s teasing anymore. “Who cares?”
Seeing this, Secretary Ren laughed. “I thought CEO Sheng treats everyone the same. Apparently he does not.”
But thinking that Sheng Bowen was married, disappointment showed on her face.
“That’s right, he has no image in front of people he’s close to.”
Mu Qiqi observed Ren Yufei’s face carefully and knew that she was hesitating and avoiding him. After all, Sheng Bowen was a married man in the eyes of outsiders.
This also proved that Ren Yufei was a kind girl. If she was an evil person, she wouldn’t care if he was married or not. After all, it wasn’t something rare. In fact, there have been many occasions where a secretary gained power with this method.
“Then CEO Sheng and his wife should be very close, since he has a good temper.”
“It might not be the case.” Mu Qiqi didn’t plan to reveal the answer tonight.
“Xiao Qi, I want to give you a toast for what you did today. From now on, the person that I’m most impressed with will be you instead of Eighth Brother, because you are the person who can even control him.”
Mu Qiqi turned her head to look at Sheng Xiao. Seeing that he’s not angry, she smiled, “That might not be the case.”
However, Sheng Xiao merely snorted at them.
“Eighth Brother, don’t sulk. I bet Xiao Qi is the one who has the say at home, right? Doesn’t seven always come before eight? It’s only natural that Xiao Qi is on top of you.”
Puff…
Cough…
Mu Qiqi’s face stiffened. Although her name literally meant seven, where did that come from? Why did it sound so erotic?
“Alright, cheers.” Mu Qiqi quickly poured wine for him.
Secretary Ren who was sitting beside her blushed. She had seen many sides of Sheng Bowen, but she had never seen him in a drunken state. Mu Qiqi had indeed let her discover a big thing tonight.
Did Mu Qiqi actually want this meal so badly?
She was only trying to create a chance for them to get close.
During the meal, Mu Qiqi kept on pouring wine for Sheng Bowen. He was so happy that he kept accepting it. In the end, he was so drunk that he slept on the table. The other three were taken aback when he fell with his face flat onto the table.
“Third Brother is at his limit already!” Mu Qiqi said to Sheng Xiao. She had been giving Sheng Bowen wine when she didn’t take a single drop of alcohol. What she had been drinking was actually grape juice.
“Miss Mu, please call Mrs. Sheng to fetch CEO Sheng.”
“You can just send him back,” Mu Qiqi said directly.
“I can’t. I have to uphold our positions so that people won’t misunderstand.”
