The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 596: [Xiao Qian Xiao Bei Becomes Well-Behaved]

Upon arriving at the marketing department, Ye Chenfeng heard Qiu Murong scolding someone from a distance.

This caused Ye Chenfeng to pause in astonishment, as Qiu Murong had never berated her subordinates before.

Curious, Ye Chenfeng walked over.

"Bang!"

At this time, Qiu Murong had just entered her office.

She left behind four girls with their heads bowed, looking just like elementary school students standing punished for misbehaving.

"What’s wrong with you all?" Ye Chenfeng asked curiously.

"Assistant Ye, we didn’t complete the tasks Director Qiu assigned to us, so we got a scolding!" a girl whispered.

"It wasn’t like this before, Director Qiu has been somewhat abnormal lately," another girl said.

Ye Chenfeng smiled slightly, stood among them, and said softly, "Do you know there are three kinds of women in the world you shouldn’t mess with?"

"Which three kinds of women?" the four girls asked curiously.

Ye Chenfeng casually lit a cigarette, "One is the woman on her period, one is the woman not on her period, and the last one is the woman whose period is oddly late!"

The four girls, keen as they were, immediately grasped what Ye Chenfeng was hinting at, certain he was referring to Qiu Murong.

"Then which kind am I?" Suddenly, a pleasant but cool voice sounded by Ye Chenfeng’s ear.

"You, of course, belong to..."

Ye Chenfeng subconsciously answered, but he immediately caught himself, and the moment he turned his head, Qiu Murong’s face, filled with a brilliant smile, was already imprinted in his eyes.

"Which kind do I belong to?" Qiu Murong asked, with an even thicker smile on her lips, but it looked slightly unnerving.

"Errr..." Ye Chenfeng found himself at a loss for words. Hadn’t Qiu Murong just gone in? How did she suddenly come out, and precisely when he was about to bad-mouth her?

"Remember not to smoke in public places in the future!" Qiu Murong authoritatively snatched the cigarette butt from Ye Chenfeng’s hand.

"Director Qiu!" Ye Chenfeng gave Qiu Murong a bitter smile.

"You girls get back to your work!" Qiu Murong commanded coldly, then said to Ye Chenfeng, "Come to my office!"

"Okay!"

Ye Chenfeng followed excitedly into her office.

While admiring Qiu Murong’s superb figure, he lit another cigarette.

"Didn’t I tell you not to smoke?" Qiu Murong complained, stepping forward to extinguish Ye Chenfeng’s cigarette once again.

Ye Chenfeng’s expression changed, "Hey, Murong, this isn’t a public place."

Qiu Murong gave him a scornful look, "What I mean is for you to quit smoking altogether!"

"Murong, I’ve been smoking for over a decade, even longer than I’ve been with women. Asking me to quit smoking and drinking would be like making me quit women; how could that be possible?" Ye Chenfeng said.

"Pah, a dog can’t spit out ivory!" Qiu Murong glared at Ye Chenfeng once more.

"I can’t quit smoking in this lifetime!" Ye Chenfeng uttered, bowing his head to light another cigarette.

But the next second, a fragrant breeze swept over him. Ye Chenfeng quickly looked up.

A stunningly beautiful face came into his view, the pretty corners of her mouth lifted slightly, uttering an orchid’s breath, "Could you smoke less in the future?"

As she spoke, Qiu Murong gently plucked the cigarette from Ye Chenfeng’s lips, threw it to the ground to crush it, then picked up the butt and tossed it into a nearby trash can!

Throughout the process, Qiu Muran’s movements were consistently elegant and efficiently brisk, creating a visually delightful experience!

Then, Qiu Muran took out a delicate, flat, iron box from the office desk drawer. It was intricately engraved with patterns and was very pleasing to the eye in color.

Slowly sliding open the iron box, Qiu Muran revealed rows of white mint candies inside. With her fingers, fresh as tender jade, she took out a mint candy and slipped it into Ye Chenfeng’s mouth along his lips!

"Uh..."

Ye Chenfeng froze at that moment, touched by Qiu Muran’s tender and earnest demeanor, feelings of warmth stirred in some people’s hearts!

If a survey were conducted at Chu Corporation: if Qiu Muran were your girlfriend but urged you to quit smoking, would you quit for her?

The unanimous response would undoubtedly be a single word: Yes!

Ye Chenfeng was also stunned, never having anticipated this move from Qiu Muran. The refreshing coolness of the mint made one fully alert, and he even felt a bit uneasy facing her. This girl was confessing in so many ways, it was overwhelming!

"Isn’t it much more delicious than a cigarette?" Qiu Muran asked with a smile as gentle as the breeze of March.

Ye Chenfeng felt a bit awkward. Her gentleness was irresistible. Yet, this feeling was oddly familiar. His heart trembled slightly, and an unforgettable figure surfaced in his mind!

The sensation was familiar and heartwarming, giving Ye Chenfeng an urge to embrace Qiu Muran!

However, Ye Chenfeng restrained himself and pulled back from his reverie. He nodded: "Delicious, HINTMINT the hint of mint candy, the world’s most expensive mint candy. Thank you, little Ranran!"

Qiu Muran was taken aback, not expecting Ye Chenfeng to recognize the candy at a glance!

Qiu Muran smiled, a little mischievously: "From now on, when you want to smoke, I’ll exchange a mint candy for each of your cigarettes. I’m curious to see how many cigarettes I can collect!"

There were no grand vows or eternal promises!

There was only casual, jesting banter. Yet, the girl’s jest filled Ye Chenfeng’s heart with the tenderest of feelings, numbing all his senses!

Ye Chenfeng really wanted to agree then and there, never to smoke again!

But he couldn’t. It wasn’t just a cigarette that he was addicted to; it was a poison with no antidote!

"Alright, I’ll try my best not to smoke in front of you!" Ye Chenfeng said.

Qiu Muran’s expression changed slightly: "Does that mean you’ll still smoke when you’re not with me?"

"Oh!"

Suddenly, Qiu Muran let out a tremble in her voice as she felt herself becoming light, falling into a warm embrace.

Holding Qiu Muran, Ye Chenfeng stared at her intently: "Little Ranran, I haven’t come to see you for so long. Aren’t you angry with me?"

Qiu Muran replied sarcastically: "What’s the use of being angry? If there’s anyone to blame, it’s my bad luck!"

"Comrade Qiu Muran, you’re being too emotional, bringing emotions into work. I have to criticize you for this!" Ye Chenfeng said seriously.

"Mind your own business!" Qiu Muran retorted curtly.

Ye Chenfeng chuckled: "Little Ranran, shall I tell you a joke?"

"Hmm?"

"There was a boy named Xiao Qian and a girl named Xiao Bei, and after the rain, they both became Xiao Guai (well-behaved)!"

After a moment, Qiu Muran caught on, shyly shooting Ye Chenfeng a glare: "Rascal!"

"Well, since you’ve called me a rascal, I must live up to the title!"

"Don’t!"
