《Sweetness Drowning: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife》C43. Going Home
Advertisement
It only takes Ko Chen less than a second to think about it. He speaks just as Wang Feng's voice falls. His tone sounds light, "Okay, I'm just in need of a secretary. Let her come."
With that, he turns to look at Uncle Zhang and orders, "Uncle Zhang, please arrange the work handover for them."
Uncle Zhang nods.
Instead of seeing Wang Feng's reaction, Ko Chen turns around and walks out because even without seeing, he is sure that Wang Feng is absolutely suppressing her ecstasy.
"Son-in-law, be careful on the way."
It seems that Ko Chen doesn't hear the voice behind him. Without stopping, he puts on his sunglasses and gets in the car. Wang Feng and Uncle Zhang are left standing at the door.
Uncle Zhang still holds today's newspaper. Folding it up and grabbing it in his hand, he respectfully says to Wang Feng, "I'll arrange it. Ms. Yu can take office in the afternoon."
Wang Feng repeatedly says yes, and can't wait to return to the room to tell Yu Yu the good news.
To her surprise, Yu Yu is upset after hearing that. She frowns and shouts to Wang Feng, “Who told you to find me a job?”
She has been used to being free and doing nothing. Before, Yu Jie supported her financially. Later, Yu Fei lived a dependent life. Yu Yu didn't even think about working, not to mention going for work. Now she is suddenly told she is going to work in the afternoon. How can she accept that?
Wang Feng strokes Yu Yu's head, with a satisfied smile, and says proudly, "You silly child, how can I really let you go to work. Working is fake but seducing Ko Chen is true."
Yu Yu is stunned and says, "Mom, you mean..."
Wang Feng nods and replies positively, "Yes, that's what you expect. Ko Chen works so much but spends only a few hours at home a day. You are waiting at home every day, and you even don't know when you can become Mrs. Ko. So it's better to take the initiative, and if you become his secretary, you two will get along with each other day and night. Love will find you!"

Yu Yu is persuaded by Wang Feng, and there arises even a picture of Ko Chen falling in love with her in her mind. She is so happy that she plunges into her mother's arms and exclaims excitedly, "Mom, you are so smart!"
“Hum, if not, how could I become Mrs. Yu?”
Wang Feng also teaches Yu Yu a lot of experience. As soon as they finish talking, the door is knocked and Uncle Zhang takes Yu Yu to go through the entry formalities.
The news of Yu Yu’s being Secretary to Ko Chen soon spreads around the company. After all, she was once on the front page of the newspaper together with Ko Chen. Because her identify is sensitive and she is Yu Fei's younger sister, it can be said that no one does not know the news in Ko’s company.
Soon, the news spreads to other companies, including Gu Yi's.
Hearing of the news, Gu Yi’s first reaction is to frown. He puts down his pen and looks at the assistant, asking, "what did you just say? Ko Chen asked Yu Yu to be his secretary? "
The assistant nods, with a gossipy look, lowers her voice and says mysteriously, "Of course, now it has been widely spread in the Ko’s company. Everyone is guessing what Mr. Ko means and whether he really wants to marry the second daughter of Yu’s family."
Gu Yi thinks of the aura of the night when Ko Chen stood face to face with him, and shakes his head, "I don't think it's possible."
Hearing this, the assistant immediately inquires about the reason. Gu Yi has already buried himself in his work again and waves his hand to drive her out.
In the evening, in Gu Yi's house.
Yu Fei has prepared a table of food and waits for Gu Yi to come back. She has been living in Gu Yi's house. Although he says it's not troublesome, she still feels embarrassed. Several times, she has asked to go home, but Gu Yi refuses for the reason that he worries about her if she lives alone.

Yu Fei has no choice but say that if there is no problem with the result of the check at the hospital, she will move out.
Gu Yi sees that she insists, and has to agree.
Tomorrow is the day for checking. Yu Fei can't be more clear about her physical condition. In fact, she was in such a condition before just because she was depressed. Now she also understands that it's a foregone situation that she is not destined to be Ko Chen’s wife, but fortunately, she still has a child in her womb. Now, the child is the only reason for her to persist.
While she is thinking about it, Gu Yi comes back from work and smells the flavor of cooked dishes at home as soon as he opens the door.
Yu Fei comes up and stands at the door, smiling at him tenderly.
Gu Yi is stunned at the door.
The scene in front of him is the life he has been dreaming of for many years. Now it is the nearest time for him to realize his dream.
Yu Fei takes his coat and puts it away. Gu Yi stares at her back and comes up with a plan that he must try his best to let the woman leave Ko Chen.
Sitting down at the dining table, Gu Yi sniffs it with exaggeration, and gives Yu Fei a thumb up, "Delicious!"
Yu Fei is embarrassed by his reaction and her face is slightly red. She hands over a bowl of soup to Gu Yi and says modestly, "it's all home-made food. I'm glad you like it."
Gu Yi's eyes are fixed on Yu Fei. The woman's white and tender face is ruddy. She looks a little more beautiful than usual, which attracts people’s eyes.
Yu Fei can feel the sight from the opposite side without looking up. She actually wants to talk to Gu Yi about going for a recheck tomorrow. Although Gu Yi is very good to her, she still feels stressed if she continues to live in his house.
Yu Fei misses the little ‘nest’ she has carefully built for herself.
Before she could figure out how to say that, Gu Yi suddenly opens his mouth and mindlessly says, "Ko Chen asked Yu Yu to work as his secretary."
Gu Yi eats soup while talking, paying attention to Yu Fei’s reaction secretly. The woman is frozen, and her heartache is just a flash, and she soon comes back to herself. After a bland "Oh", she says nothing more.
Yu Fei looks calm. In fact, her heart has already been turned upside down. She didn't expect that Ko Chen would let Yu Yu enter his company, and even make her become his secretary, which means that they will be together almost every day. Yu Fei hasn't forgotten how Wang Feng climbed up her father's bed.
Gu Yi puts down the bowl and asks, "Fei, are you ok?"
Yu Fei smiles, shakes her head, signals that she is ok, and changes the topic, "Tomorrow is the day of checking. I think if it turns out..."
Yu Fei is interrupted by Gu Yi before she finishes her words, "OK, I'll go with you. Come and have more food. The baby needs nutrition."
Gu Yi has brought many dishes to Yu Fei. Having been interrupted, she can't go on with her words, so she has to eat first. She thinks in silence that her moving out of his house would be told after the result comes out.
But Gu Yi is busy thinking about using what reasons to persuade Yu Fei to keep living in his house. This chance, once missed, will never come back again.
