Xu Chen's Story Chapter 7 - Heartbeat

Yin Kai Yuan was wearing a white shirt, a black skirt that reached the upper edge of her knew, and a pair of black mid-heels. Her long hair was neatly tied behind her head, which looked plain.

If she wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, she would look like an unsmiling nerd.

“President, hello.” Holding a notebook and pen in her hand, she bowed to him.

Xu Chen got up and walked over, resting his hips on the desk, crossing his feet leisurely, his palms on the edge of the table, a pair of nice and deep eyes fixed on her, not hiding the hint of smile in his eyes.

He looked at her from head to toe.

Yin Kai Yuan’s scalp was numb as he stared at her. She forced herself not to look away.

She is actually a very nervous person, but she also knows how to be calm, pretending to be nonchalant, but in fact, her heart rate goes straight to 150.

"You usually work while wearing these?"

"Oh?" Yin Kai Yan subconsciously looked down at her clothes, "This is the first time that I’m working as a secretary and at such a big company. I think this looks more professional.”

She specially bought these clothes.

"What did you wear before?"

"Jeans and shirts."

Small companies don't have much demand in this regard.

"I will change to a little more fancier in the future."

"Fancier?"

Yin Kai Yuan's little pink low-cut dress immediately appeared in her mind.

No, no, it should be possible to dress like that for work, right?

"Don't dress so lifelessly like you are attending a funeral." He smiled slightly, "I'm still alive."

Does the boss usually joke like this?

Why is she having a cold sweat?

(Gao Hai Huan: You will understand later.)

Seeing her little face that was still slightly confused, he kindly said, "You can refer to Bing Tong's clothes."

Zheng Bing Tong's clothes are actually quite simple, it is also a shirt and skirt, but the color is much more colorful, and she often uses silk scarves, earrings, necklaces, and other accessories to add femininity, showing a good figure without deliberately being sexy. Her style is very suitable for this type of company.

"I understand.”

Yin Kai Yuan wanted to ask Zheng Bing Tong where she bought her clothes during lunch.

"Do you use a notebook to take down notes?" He looked at the red leather notebook.

At least the notebook is not black, which is comforting.

"Yes, I think the traditional method is more convenient."

Xu Chen nodded, "It's convenient for you, but there is a tablet in the desk drawer, so you can get used to it."

"Okay."

"Then open your  notebook."

Yin Kai Yuan immediately opened the notebook, held a pen in her hand, and waited.

"Every morning there is a department head meeting. On Monday, the marketing department, the planning department on Tuesday, the personnel department and the finance department on Wednesday, the R&D department on Thursday, and the production department on Friday. The day off is postponed by one day..."

"Wait, wait." Yin Kai Yuan, who was too late to copy, interrupted quickly, "Sorry, I have no time to write, can you speak more slowly?"

"If I speak slowly,  we will finish by the end of the day."

"Is there so much to say?" Yin Kai Yuan was stunned.

"My schedule has been fixed for three months."

Yin Kai Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

That is, the boss directly writes down the three-month schedule in his head?

"I don't have time to wait for you to write slowly," he pointed to the pocket of her jacket, "Give me your phone."

"Oh?"

Yin Kai Yuan, who didn't know what he was going to do, took out the phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint and gave it to him.

The mobile phone’s wallpaper is a landscape photo, neither a couple nor a man alone. It is obvious that she does not have a boyfriend.

This knowledge made him raise his mouth slightly.

"President, what are you doing with my phone?"

And he kept staring at the screen, is it to see what app she downloaded?

"What's the rush?" Xu Chen glanced at her.

Yin Kai Yuan's heart pounded because of this look.

The president feels... so evil.

She bit her lip inwardly, so as not to accidentally show her bewildered appearance.

Xu Chen clicked on the recording app, and talked to her mobile phone about the company's various fixed meeting times, the schedule for the next three months, what to do in each quarter, and so on.

He was talking while walking. It seemed as if he was chatting with someone on the opposite side of the phone. His tone was very relaxed. He walked around Yin Kai Yuan from time to time. The faint and comfortable cologne scent was very good. Even when he left, it was still on the tip of his nose. The remaining fragrance made her nervous again for no reason.

He talked for almost half an hour before he finished speaking. Yin Kai Yuan kept standing like this, her legs that were not used to wearing heeled shoes felt sore.

"Done."

He handed her the phone, and Yin Kai Yuan quickly raised her hand to take it.

When she put it down, his fingertips slid across her wrist, leaving a strange touch.

"Listen to it and organize it.”

She thought that it would save time but--

"President, I feel like you do not need a secretary. You remember everything so clearly."

" Now that I have you, I can just clear these things and do other more important things."

"Oh—" Can he remember it in detail, or forget it completely?

It's so flexible, it's too powerful.

"Do you think I have a big head?"

Yin Kai Yuan, who didn't understand why he asked, shook her head vigilantly.

"So you mean that my head is so small, how can I remember so many things?"

Is this… a joke again?

Yin Kai Yuan grinned stiffly.

His hand suddenly covered the top of her head. She was shocked and shrank her shoulders subconsciously.

He did not take back his hand because of her shoulder-shrinking action, and touched the back of her head with a big palm. Yin Kai Yuan felt that wherever his hand went, it left goosebumps on her skin.

"You have a small head, can you remember these things?"

"Yes, yes." Her panic was revealed. "I, I have a notebook, I will write it all down."

"Then go back and write down what I just dictated." He took back his hand.

"Okay, okay."

She lowered her head slightly, her cheeks glowed with faint blush, and quickly left the president's office.

She held her breath all throughout, until the moment when her ass got on the chair, she then took a breath.

She stroked her chest, and the disturbance of her heartbeat made her wonder if she was suffering from arrhythmia.

"Hurry up and write down what the boss said."

She hurriedly took out the earphones from her bag, plugged them into her ears, and pressed the play  button.

Xu Chen's deep, mellow, magnetically elegant, and slightly smiling gentle voice flowed into her ears.

When facing him, she doesn’t feel anything. Why is it that when playing from the mobile phone, every word is like knocking on the chest, rippling deep in her lower abdomen, and her whole body is a little numb?

She suddenly blushed.

God, does she want to keep listening to this voice?

It’s like putting a bomb in her heart!
