Wen Cheng was flattered by the thumbs-up; this praise made her happier than any other compliment she had ever received.
After all, he was the man who dated Brother Qi!
Wen Cheng chuckled, and to avoid sounding too smug, covered her face and said, "Little brother, you don't need to admire me so much~"
But your face clearly shows you're showing off!
Wen Yunyi unconsciously crumpled the plastic water cup in his hand, but this guy had already hooked up with the big brother, he couldn't let him continue to flaunt his wealth! Before him, no one had ever been able to beat him with just words!
"Brother, you don't need to think so highly of yourself~" Wen Yunyi said with a forced smile, and then gently squeezed the twisted bottle back to its original innocent shape from when they first met.
"I think I'm being a little too modest about myself." Wen Cheng is impervious to blades and spears.
If Wen Yunyi were a rabbit spirit, his feet would have stomped like lightning by now. Of course, he could use his signature teasing words to retort, but his subconscious told him that this thing had no chance against Wen Cheng!
Wen Cheng found it particularly enjoyable to tease Cha Cha after surviving the ordeal. Although her boyfriend wanted her to go home and rest early and turn off the lights, she wasn't so eager to go home anymore.
"Is your little brother jealous?" Wen Cheng asked, feigning concern, her tone so snobbish it was like she couldn't swat away a fly!
But Wen Yunyi inexplicably fell for it. "You're talking nonsense! He's my brother, why would I be jealous?! I have a boyfriend!" Wen Yunyi desperately needed to prove his innocence.
Wen Cheng covered her mouth, "If that's the case, why is my little brother so agitated?"
Wen Yunyi almost choked on his breath, "I, I!"
"Chengcheng, have you finished drinking your water?" Wen Qi called from the second floor. Wen Cheng responded very quickly. Looking at her younger brother who was almost crying from being bullied, she couldn't bear it and ruffled his new hairstyle from yesterday. Then she put down her water glass and ran upstairs.
Wen Yunyi was so angry that he gritted his teeth as he watched Wen Cheng's retreating figure. He was already preparing the sentences he would use for their next argument. He couldn't let Wen Cheng take advantage of him every time!
Even if he's dating the older brother!
Wen Cheng rushed over, but before she could give her dear Qi Ge a hug, Wen Yongwang came out of the other room and saw the two of them hugging, their intimacy unlike that of normal brothers. This had happened almost three times a week over the past few months. How come he hadn't noticed it back then? Wen Yongwang hated himself.
"Why are you still standing here? Go back to sleep! Chengcheng, go back to your room. Aunt Li cleans your room every few days, and you can still sleep there!" Deep down, Wen Yongwang didn't quite accept the relationship between the two of them. Even if he was very touched by what he said now, what would happen in the future?
"Daddy, I'm still scared~" Wen Cheng launched his little jacket attack. His already youthful appearance, combined with his wink, made him look even more like himself when he was young.
Wen Yongwang took a deep breath, almost falling for the trick. "I don't believe it, it's been so long!"
"Dad, I remember when my brother was filming the promotional video for me, he climbed really high up the tree. He was so brave back then, and he even said he could climb ten trees!" Wen Yunyi followed behind, a hint of vengeful pleasure in his eyes.
But this joy vanished completely under his older brother's scrutinizing gaze.
Wen Yunyi instantly shrank into an ostrich.
Wen Yongwang glanced at Wen Cheng, who instinctively hid behind Wen Qi's wings.
Wen Qi took Wen Cheng's hand naturally, "Uncle, if you don't agree now, Chengcheng won't be able to sleep well if she sneaks over in the middle of the night."
"You!" Seeing his usually proudest son now become the "son-in-law" he hated the most! Wen Yongwang almost demonstrated the versatility of being a father on the spot!
In the midst of this stalemate, Grandpa's door was opened, and the old man only said one sentence, "Are you going to sleep or not?"
The group scattered like birds and beasts, and Wen Cheng took advantage of the chaos to sneak back into Wen Qi's room and successfully locked the door!
After washing up, Wen Cheng snuggled into Wen Qi's arms, trying to fall asleep. Wen Qi casually stroked Wen Cheng's head while rapidly scrolling through messages on his phone. Just as the person in his arms was about to drift off to sleep, he said...
"Let's put on the earrings tomorrow."
One sentence was enough to make Wen Cheng's drowsiness vanish without a trace, leaving only bursts of silly laughter.
He originally thought he would have to wait a long time for this day, but he was very grateful that even if his family was unwilling, it was because they were worried that they would be influenced by the outside world, and they were not actually opposed to the two of them being together.
"Then we can openly hold hands and go shopping together, and we can freely change into matching outfits. We can also tell my friends that we're together!" Wen Cheng was especially happy when she thought about this.
Looking at Wen Cheng's silly grinning face, Wen Qi felt a little sad. Although Wen Cheng had been saying that it was okay to be together like this, he actually envied open and aboveboard relationships.
If this matter had been dealt with sooner, would Chengcheng have been spared such distress for so long?
"Okay, everything's fine now." Wen Qi kissed Wen Cheng's hair.
It seems I need to pay more attention to what this silly boy is thinking. Don't let his seemingly carefree attitude fool you; there are things he might keep to himself if he doesn't want to trouble others.
For example, making their relationship public, or going to the small villa they bought themselves.
The expression on his face when he first saw the big bear, and the expression on his face when he saw the two people's bedroom.
Wen Qi felt that the scene at that moment was more precious than any of his achievements.
In the morning, Wen Cheng was forced to run with Brother Qi before the family ate breakfast.
Today's breakfast was shrimp congee, made with carefully selected large shrimp. After a few bites, Wen Cheng felt that the congee was more of a side dish than a main dish; each bite contained two or three pieces of shrimp. Wen Cheng ate with great relish.
"The shrimp is quite good today," Wen Qi suddenly remarked.
Wen Yongwang grunted, as if deliberately picking a fight with his eldest son, and asked, "What's so good about it?"
Wen Yin hadn't expected her husband to be so childish, and she gave him a push on behalf of Grandpa Wen.
Unexpectedly, Wen Qi didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, he raised an eyebrow in a very good mood and said, "The meat is good, especially the color. I've been really into red lately."
Wen Yunyi was somewhat speechless at his brother's antics. What shrimp isn't red when cooked? Even Wen Cheng, who was diligently eating, looked up to see if her brother had taken the wrong medicine that morning.
"Qi Qi, your ear?" Only Wen Yin noticed the uniquely styled red earring on Wen Qi's right ear.
You can see some leaf marks on the earrings. They're not dyed; the red color comes from the leaves themselves, making it a very beautiful color.
Wen Qi examined her face, then pretended not to have given any hints and asked, "Is it this one?" Wen Qi pointed to the earring.
Now, all eyes were on Wen Qi, who never used such fancy decorations.
And, belatedly, they discovered that both of their sons had the same ear, one on the left and one on the right.
Wen Cheng coughed shyly because of the stares, while Wen Qi remained outwardly calm but inwardly shook his head, showing off his earrings so that every family member could appreciate their beauty.
Wen Cheng found it strange. Why hadn't she noticed before that Brother Qi liked to show off so much? However, she was somewhat pleased by this kind of showing off, as if it were a way of praising herself.
Then the owner of the custom-made earrings shyly stepped forward, saying, "I bought these when we were filming the promotional video."
Wen family: Burp, we're full!
Of the whole family, only the father was the first to smash the dog food bowl in front of him, yelling, "How long were you two together before you knew how to buy him matching earrings?!"
For some reason, the way Wen Yongwang said "couple earrings" made everyone feel so ashamed. Wen Cheng felt embarrassed without realizing it. Wen Qi continued to maintain his aloofness, but the smile on his lips betrayed him, making Wen Yongwang furious.
"As for this matter, at home for the time being, cough cough, it's not enough to make you break up, but I don't think now is the best time to announce it to the outside world. Aqi, let me tell you the truth, the outside world is definitely not as tolerant of your relationship as the family is. So, you should be more discreet in public these days."
Wen Yongwang said earnestly.
Wen Qi listened in silence.
"Use pseudonyms to launch a poll?" Secretary Zhao confirmed repeatedly, wondering if the boss was being a bit too shrewd.
"Yes, I know that before Chengcheng and I were officially announced as brothers, there were quite a few scripts about us published in the company."
Secretary Zhao was shocked. "You knew about this?"
"Does Premier Wen mean to first gauge everyone's opinion? If no one has any ideas?"
“Yes, let’s do it now,” Wen Qi replied affirmatively.
Secretary Zhao hesitated, "What if everyone's attitude towards this matter isn't as good as expected, and then someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of it and finds evidence that you two are really together?"
"They'll find out sooner or later." Wen Qi saw things clearly and completely forgot about the probing words Wen Yongwang had given him that morning.
Since it's already been announced, it might as well be a thorough announcement.
“Even if the worst happens, Chengcheng doesn’t need to hear any unpleasant things here. His project is almost finished, and he can choose whether or not to do this job.” Wen Qi stated the facts.
Secretary Zhao felt like he had been hit with a critical strike. How could he possibly worry about how badly his boss was doing?
At least they're happier than me!
The top secretary almost lost control of her expression.
"By the way, you'll be in charge of this whole thing. If there's any bad news, delete everything targeting Chengcheng. If you do a good job, I'll give you a bonus this month." As a young boss, Wen Qi dislikes making empty promises to his employees. He believes that giving employees a raise honestly and openly is the real deal.
Secretary Zhao instantly perked up, "President Wen, rest assured. By the way, I wish you and Young Master Wen a long and happy marriage, and may you be of one heart forever."
"Mm." Wen Qi didn't say much, but the joy that welled up in his eyes clearly showed his feelings.
This morning, Wen Cheng's desk was piled high with all sorts of snacks, the most ever ever. This also shows how many people needed her help today. Wen Cheng was busy like a spinning top early in the morning. When she finally got a break, she saw someone post a poll in the company's small group chat.
Which of the following groups of colleagues in your company do you think has the best chemistry as a couple?
Chapter 116 My younger brother also has one
"Hey, Rou Rou sent a message!" Shen Feimo, who was so busy he couldn't even lift his head, suddenly perked up like he'd been injected with adrenaline, even whistling in a very good mood, a stark contrast to his earlier state of waiting for Wen Cheng and the others to save him.
The strange thing is that everyone in the office stopped what they were doing as soon as they heard those words. The word "Gentle" sounded more like an order at that moment. Its appeal was so great that even Minister Zhang, who was always committed to superficial discipline, didn't say a word.
Curious Orange immediately turned her head to look at the gossip.
"Who is it? Who is it?!"
Shen Feimo pushed Wen Cheng's face back with a jealous look. "Go away, the Rou Rou on my phone belongs only to me. Go look on your phone, it's in the group chat."
Is she that rare? She must be a stunning beauty!
Wen Cheng pulled out his phone, his curiosity even making him lose interest in the chicken skewers in his hand. The group chat was already buzzing with calls for Rou Rou. Wen Cheng struggled to scroll through the screen to find the first message.
Original post: Which of the following groups of colleagues in your company do you think has the best chemistry as a couple?
Before the results were even in sight, a chaotic mess of wailing and lamentation began. Wen Cheng felt that the usually warm and lovely Xiaoqun was now like a demonic cult, all because of this brown-skinned beauty with a thickly painted portrait and pigtails.
We still don't know what exactly makes Rou Rou so attractive!
Unwilling to give up, Wen Cheng wanted to ask Shen Feimo, who was standing to the side, but Shen Feimo was frantically tapping on his phone as if he were possessed. Not only him, but everyone else in the office was also oblivious to what was happening around them, their hearts completely devoted to "Rou Rou"!
This made Wen Cheng even more curious. One of the advantages of joining the Information Department was that you had access to some website resources. For example, a senior colleague created a website called "Company Baidu" to collect all kinds of gossip about the company. Later, when the people inside knew too much information and it was inconvenient to disclose it, they announced that the website had been blocked. But for the Information Department, it was just a matter of setting it as secret. Wen Cheng easily cracked the website by typing a string of code.
The website's front page still featured the news that he was the biological son of the Wen family, but with more comprehensive information. It even included details like the car he was in on the day he was recognized and the car's license plate number. The website was used by tech-savvy individuals, for whom gossip was just a matter of typing a few keys.
Wen Cheng quickly typed "Rou Rou".
Messages rained down on the black screen, some with photos, some with dialog boxes. The maintainer didn't like anything fancy; the interface was clean and unadorned, like a programmer's plaid shirt.
Wen Cheng glanced at the news and roughly understood what "Rou Rou" was all about.
Based on big data analysis, Rou Rou is very likely one of the higher-ups, but that's about it. More information about Rou Rou comes from what she has shared with everyone over the years.
Rou Rou first became famous three years ago during a design competition held by the company. All the participants were present to design on-site, but Rou Rou's appearance defied most people's common sense. At the time, a member of the IT department missed the registration deadline and tried to sneak into the official competition. As soon as he turned on his computer, the screen went black. Everyone didn't think much of it until a hot brown-skinned woman appeared on the black screen with a cool and seductive electronic voice: "You're blocking my way from participating in the competition. Can you move aside?"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's computer screen went black at the same time. The 3D beauty pulled out a chair from the black screen, sat down, and sexyly crossed her legs. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Rou Rou."
