CEO's Substitute Bride

0Ning Xia was in a good mood but when she returned to the company, she suddenly realized that everyone was looking at her with a strange expression.    

    

She checked herself discreetly but found nothing special, making her even more confused.    

    

While thinking about how to ask someone, she received a WeChat from Ye Zi. "I don't know who said that you are kept by the CEO. The rumors already spread all over the place now, you take care."    

    

Ning Xia was speechless. What was going on?    

    

Knowing the reason, she didn't bother to explain. She knew she was clean anyway.    

    

When she returned to the CEO's office, Ning Xia had just sat down when she received a call from the front desk, saying that her package had arrived.    

    

Ning Xia nodded, the books she has bought arrived.    

    

But there were quite a few of those books, she couldn't move them alone …    

    

Ning Xia looked at Shen Heng who was pouring water, and showed a bright smile, "Assistant Shen, can you do me a favor?"    

    

Shen Heng looked at her doubtfully with a face full of wariness, "What favor?"    

    

Ever since he saw Ning Xia slapping those two women, he was firmly convinced that she wasn't as innocent and harmless as she looked on the surface. However, only such a woman was worthy of standing by President Pei's side.    

    

"I've bought some books and I can't carry them by myself…"    

    

Ning Xia displayed a pitiful expression. Shen Heng distanced from her even more. A strong woman who was acting weak was the scariest!    

    

He wanted to be a baby and not to experience too much!    

    

Pei Yichen, who was in the office, frowned slightly when he saw Ning Xia's cute expression through the glass window. How could she show that expression to another man?    

    

But then he shook his head helplessly. It's just a partnership, why does he care so much?    

    

With this thought, he started to deal with the matters at hand.    

    

After a short hesitation, Shen Heng agreed.    

    

"Oh yeah, President Pei said that you don't need to take the stairs anymore."    

    

Hearing Shen Heng's words, Ning Xia was so happy that she wanted to jump up and down. Great!    

    

When the front desk staff saw President Pei's special assistant personally helping Ning Xia carry the packages, their jaws dropped. It looks like the rumors were true!    

    

In addition, Ning Xia took the CEO's special elevator and so, the rumors were flaming more and more.    

    

The two of them took the books and went straight back to the 66th floor. Here it was very quiet, but the other floors looked like a bombing scene. The reliability of the rumors was already as high as 70% to 80%.    

    

"What are this books about?"    

    

Shen Heng didn't leave right away. He was a bit curious, what were the uses of the twenty books she bought?    

    

If you scout out some information, then you'll have some good news to report to the CEO.    

    

"Oh, some books are about fashion design and others, about basic communication in some languages."    

    

In the past, her major was in design, and moreover, the school was an internationally renowned design school, so the requirements for foreign languages were extremely high. Unfortunately, she had only finished her first year in university and had no foundation. Now, she can only start over and learn by herself.    

    

Shen Heng gave her a meaningful look, then casually flipped through the basic books: French, English, Korean, Japanese, even Latin. As for English, it was divided into American English and British English.    

    

"I will also recommend psychology to you. Sometimes, if you can see through the other person, or make the other person unable to see through you, then you're half done."    

    

Shen Heng sudden seriosity surprised Ning Xia a little, but she completely agreed with his words, "Alright, I'll reformulate my study plan."    

    

Shen Heng nodded and went back to the office to report Ning Xia's situation to Pei Yichen.    

    

But, there was no trace of surprise on Pei Yichen's face. The more time he spent with Ning Xia, the more he realized that she was never someone who could be satisfied with the current situation.    

    

"Since she wants to learn, let her be."    

    

As long as it did not affect his plans, whatever Ning Xia did had nothing to do with him.    

    

"Oh right, I asked you to investigate her expulsion from the university. How is it?"    

    

Pei Yichen raised his head and looked at Shen Heng. It has been several days now and he didn't hear a reply yet.    

    

"President Pei, Shengde Academy's records are confidential. I have people looking for those who heard about it then, but most have already graduated, so it's not easy to contact them. As for the current students, they have basically only heard of this matter and don't know the specifics."    

    

Pei Yichen looked at him surprised. Turns out there's something he didn't know about. It was rare.    

    

"Didn't Shi Mobai also graduate from that school?"    

    

Pei Yichen put down the pen in his hand and handed the document to Shen Heng. "Do it again."    

    

Shen Heng took the documents and continued, "Yes, but Ning Xia is at the Design Institute and Shi Mobai is at the Foreign Languages Institute. They are far from each other. Also, Shi Mobai didn't seem to know Ning Xia at the coffee shop last time."    

    

Pei Yichen nodded. 'Ning Xia, ah, Ning Xia. You're really like a riddle that can't be solved at the moment.    

    

Outside the CEO's office, Ning Xia sorted out the books leisurely and made herself a detailed course schedule. Finally, she exhaled and wiped the sweat off her forehead. After drinking half a cup of cold water, she was finally able to catch her breath.    

    

"Ding ling ling ~"    

    

The phone rang, scaring Ning Xia. She could be said to be the idlest employee in the company. Before Pei Yichen had real power, this phone did not ring at all.    

0

    

"Hello, President's Office of the 66th floor."    

    

Ning Xia took a deep breath and answered the call.    

    

"Ning Xia, there's a woman going up. She's very aggressive, it seems like …"    

    

"Ahh, Hey, lady, you cannot enter."    

    

The raging voice on the phone hasn't finished speaking when Ning Xia saw a woman gracefully walking towards her office. She quickly put down the phone and went to stop her.    

    

Isn't it forbidden to enter the CEO's office without an appointment? How did the front desk and security let her in?    

    

Anna looked at Ning Xia with a scrutinizing gaze. She saw that this woman's skin was fair, her eyes were clear, and her lips were rosy. She was a real beauty. Instantly, her anger rose.    

    

The most important thing was, Ning Xia was wearing a pink dress that showed her good figure. Without a doubt, she had curves in all the right places.    

    

Yichen really had such a foxy assistant by his side!    

    

She frowned slightly, with a look of contempt on her face. It's just another one who wants to rely on her good looks. But Yichen was only hers. She wouldn't allow anyone to snatch him away from her!    

    

"I can't enter? Hmph, are you blind? "If you want to know, Yichen and I have been engaged since we were babies!"    

    

Turning around abruptly, Ning Xia almost couldn't hold back her laughter. What kind of era was this? There was actually such a thing as babies engaged?    

    

But Pei Yichen was already married to her, right?
