Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After breakfast, Gao Xiaoxiao sent Xiaobai to the kindergarten.

As it was the most prestigious elite school in City D, one would usually see luxurious cars picking up and dropping off kids at the entrance of the kindergarten. It was rare to see someone send their child to school on foot like Gao Xiaoxiao.
Even so, Gao Xiaobai still won the hearts of many little girls.

Just as they reached the entrance, a chubby little girl pounced on him. “Gao Xiaobai, have you had breakfast? I brought mom’s egg cake. Do you want one?”

Gao Xiaoxiao did not know what to say.

“Other kids’ moms know how to make egg cakes but I only know how to make boiled eggs…” she thought, feeling ashamed.

“Ive already had breakfast. Thank you,” Gao Xiaobai held Gao Xiaoxiao’s hand and replied matter-of-factly.

The little girl blinked in disappointment. “But it’s really very delicious. I brought it here specially for you…”
Gao Xiaoxiao could not bear to see the child looking sad. She smiled and said, “Wow, thank you. Xiaobai, take it. It’s a token of her sincerity.”

Gao Xiaobai pursed his lips and had no choice but to accept the box. “Thank you.”

‘The little girl beamed instantly. “You’re welcome. Then will you stand beside me for morning exercise later?”

Gao Xiaoxiao did not know what to say.

“So girls born after 2010 are more mature and proactive. They even know the principle of ‘gifts blind the eyes’…” she thought.

Soon after, Gao Xiaoxiao left quickly under her son’s resentful gaze.

As soon as she arrived at the office, Gao Xiaoxiao got busy with work.

At nine o’clock sharp, Han Zhen walked out of the elevator.

Gao Xiaoxiao’s seat was at the front of the secretary’s office. When Han Zhen walked past, he knocked on the rack twice with his long fingers and said calmly, “Come to my office.”
“Alright, Young Master Han.” Gao Xiaoxiao stood up respectfully.

As soon as the door to the CEO’s office was closed, there was an uproar in the secretary’s office.

In the CEO’s office.

Gao Xiaoxiao stood attentively in front of the black desk and waited for Han Zhen’s instructions.

He took off his suit, loosened his tie, unbuttoned his shirt, and called Secretary Zhou to make coffee

After a long while, he lowered his head and looked at her quietly. “Where did you sleep last night?”

Oh, it was too late to go home last night. I slept at Huanyan’s,” Gao Xiaoxiao said.
Han Zhen raised his eyebrows and relaxed on the sofa. He said, “Why didn’t you call me?”

Gao Xiaoxiao’s expression did not change. “I was afraid that I would disturb your date with your girlfriend, so I didn’t call you.”

Han Zhen looked at her calm little face and narrowed his amorous eyes. He was about to speak.

“Knock, knock, knock.” Secretary Zhou walked in with a cup of black coffee. “Young Master Han, your coffee.”

As soon as she put his coffee on the table, Han Zhen’s eyes flashed and he announced, “Xiaoxiao will accompany me to the Gu family’s celebratory feast on Saturday. Secretary Zhou, you’re in charge of her outfit.”
“Gu Corporation?”

Gao Xiaoxiao looked up in surprise.

Secretary Zhou was stunned for a moment before she quickly responded, “Okay.”

“If there’s no problem, you can all go back first.” After saying that, Han Zhen smiled, looking like he was in a good mood.

Gao Xiaoxiao braced herself and said, “Young Master Han, I’m sorry, I might…”

“Don’t worry, the company will reimburse you for the clothes,” Han Zhen interrupted her gently.

Gao Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth. “Young Master Han, I…”
Secretary Zhou quickly tugged at Gao Xiaoxiao’s arm and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, Young Master Han. I’ll definitely get it ready.”
“Okay.” Han Zhen crossed his legs, picked up his tablet, and looked at it seriously.

Secretary Zhou dragged Gao Xiaoxiao out of the office.

In the pantry.

“Xiaoxiao, are you and Young Master Han… in a relationship?”

Ever since Gao Xiaoxiao was promoted to a special assistant a few days ago, there had been a lot of discussions in the secretary’s office. Although Secretary Zhou felt that Xiaoxiao was not a materialistic girl, she recalled seeing Young Master Han help carry her bag after work. And today, he asked her to
accompany him to a banquet

‘These anomalies made Secretary Zhou suspect something.
Gao Xiaoxiao adjusted her glasses and said seriously, “Secretary Zhou, you’re mistaken. I only have a superior-subordinate relationship with Young Master Han.”

Secretary Zhou stared at her intently. “Really?”

“Of course it’s true.” Afraid that she would not believe her, Gao Xiaoxiao added, “Young Master Han is out of my league. Why would I overestimate myself? Besides, I have a boyfriend. I love him very much!”
“Xiaobai, let Mommy borrow you for a while…” she thought.

“I see.” Secretary Zhou heaved a sigh of relief and said with a consoling smile, “I’ve been working in Han Tai Corporation for five or six years. To be honest, Young Master Han is good at everything, but… he’s a little too flirtatious! Many women take advantage of this, so they try their best to get involved
with him, all for the sake of getting some money after breaking up! I thought you’re like them…”

Gao Xiaoxiao smiled at her but thought to herself, “‘m sorry, actually, I’m after money too.”
After a busy day, Gao Xiaoxiao wanted to talk to Han Zhen about the gala tonight and tease out his attitude about divorce.

However, by 11:00 o’clock, there was still no sign of him. He did not reply to her messages either. Finally, she was so tired that she had no choice but to go upstairs to rest.
‘The next day, she woke up to find that the door opposite her was wide open. The bed was clean and did not look like someone had slept on it.

Gao Xiaoxiao frowned but she had to go to the office.

At Han Tai Corporation.

Throughout the morning, Han Zhen did not appear.

After lunch, Secretary Zhou handed her an exquisite gift box. “Xiaoxiao, your gown is here.”

It was an elegant lake-blue dress with diamond-studded shoulder straps. It was obvious that it was expensive.

As Gao Xiaoxiao touched the cool and smooth fabric, she heard someone whisper behind her.

“L really don’t know why Young Master Han asked her to attend.”

“That’s right, any one of us would look better than her!”

“Well, you don’t have her scheming strategies.”

“I didn’t expect that she, who usually looks so silly, could actually climb into Young Master Han’s bed…”
“That’s right, white lotus…”

As Gao Xiaoxiao turned around, the women immediately lowered their heads and pretended to look at something.

Secretary Zhou coughed lightly a few times and pretended not to hear it. “Xiaoxiao, do you want to try it on? If it doesn’t fit, I’ll get someone to make alterations.”

Gao Xiaoxiao did not want to try it on at first. In fact, she did not intend to attend the gala at all.

However, those gossipy women had put her in a bad mood. If they could say such unpleasant things in front of her, they must have gone even further behind her back!
Gao Xiaoxiao looked at them. “Well!” she thought.

As expected, the expressions of the women changed immediately.
