The cliché story of a domineering president and his secretary

Doesn't her chin hurt? She cried out in pain when I touched her lightly, so how could she be so harsh on herself? Seeing the woman's behavior, Ding Hong closed his eyes to avoid showing his frustration and to avoid the urge to grab her hands again. He felt powerless, but he knew that the chaos just now was caused by his own loss of composure, and the woman was innocent.

The car was silent. After a moment, the two people in the back seat finally realized: they were in a car, and there was another person in the car!

The two looked towards the driver's seat almost at the same time.

Xiao Yang was terrified. He was really terrified, perhaps even more terrified than An Yi's chin being pinched. Although the anger of the two people in the back row had nothing to do with him, this was the most terrifying thing! What did he see? What did he hear? Could he destroy his eyes and ears?

The first person to realize that innocent Xiao Yang was about to be set on fire in fear and needed to be rescued immediately was An Yi. She and Xiao Yang were from the same class, had stronger empathy, understood Xiao Yang's embarrassing situation better, and was worried that the boss would implicate this honest witness.

An Yi calmed himself down and said with a dry laugh: "Haha, my nose is fine, it was just scratched by paper, it's okay. But I'm very afraid of pain, I guess I scared you guys."

Xiao Yang remained quiet but looked at An Yi with gratitude in the rearview mirror. Everything was said without words.

"Then, let's find a place nearby to park and eat." Ding Hong said lightly.

Huh?! An Yi and Xiao Yang were both shocked at this moment. How could the scene change like this?

"Oh, okay." Xiao Yang knew that the boss was talking to him. Just as he encountered a traffic light, he hurriedly looked out of the car window and searched around.

"There's a fast food restaurant over there, let's go there." The boss spoke again.

An Yi followed the boss's gesture and looked over. It was a well-known fast food chain that mainly served hamburgers. The boss also ate this kind of food? Oh, he had studied abroad for several years, so Western fast food might be his favorite.

Xiao Yang was also full of doubts, but he parked the car neatly in front of the fast food restaurant without saying a word.

"Everyone, get off the car and have a simple meal." The boss's voice was calm.

"Boss, I've already eaten. You guys go ahead and eat. I'm just looking for a place to park."

An Yi didn't believe it: "Did you really eat it?"

"Yes, after my boss informed me of the departure time, I had lunch in advance." Xiao Yang answered sincerely to show that he was not lying.

Ding Hong nodded: "Then go find a pharmacy and buy some anti-inflammatory ointment."

"Okay, boss." Xiao Yang naturally knew why he bought the medicine, and his eyes subconsciously swept towards An Yi's nose.

An Yi was silent. She was complaining in her heart: If Xiao Yang had informed her earlier, she would have had time to have a simple meal in advance. But now...if she also used Xiao Yang's words, it would be too deliberate to keep silent, and it would be easy for the cunning boss to see through it. Oh, just accept your fate.

He looked at Xiao Yang reluctantly, and Xiao Yang secretly gave him an encouraging look, then drove away in a hurry.

Xiao Yang found the pharmacy quickly, took the anti-inflammatory ointment he had bought and got back into the car. He could not help thinking of the scene in the car just now. Although it was only a few minutes, he was concentrating on driving and did not see the whole process clearly, but if he said that he did not see anything and did not know what happened, it would be deceiving himself. As a personal driver, the most taboo thing for him is excessive curiosity. But after all, he is just an ordinary person, and no matter how little curiosity he has, it is not the same as no curiosity. What happened just now, plus the previous few trivial things that made him suspicious but insignificant, made Xiao Yang gradually spy on some clues between the boss and An Yi.

Will it? I really can't figure it out. Is it really like this? Xiao Yang had his first work-related trouble in recent years, which made the self-discipline and self-reflection that he had always been proud of vanish.

Forget it, let's send the medicine to Miss An first. Thinking of this, Xiao Yang started the car and prepared to go to the fast food restaurant. But then a light bulb went off in his head: Why did the boss only let me notify Miss An 15 minutes in advance? Was it because he didn't want her to have the same time and opportunity to eat in advance as he did?

Xiao Yang slammed his head hard, cursing himself: What does this have to do with you? What are you gossiping about? He shook his head vigorously, regained his usual calm and peaceful expression, and drove away.

As soon as she entered the fast food restaurant, An Yi felt that she was in the wrong place. But it was not her who was in the wrong place, but the boss. This place was too out of tune with the boss!

Ding Hong was dressed in formal attire today. Although his summer light grey suit jacket was placed on the car seat, he was only wearing a simple white shirt and light grey trousers. However, the fabric, tailoring, and shiny black leather shoes of this suit, coupled with his deliberately restrained but still unconcealed extraordinary demeanor, still attracted the attention of customers in the restaurant, and there were many young girls who were secretly flirting with him. An Yi complained in his heart that the boss was really a troublemaker.

"Boss, what do you want to eat? Let me go order." An Yi walked forward and asked dutifully with a professional smile on his face.

Ding Hong only glanced at her indifferently, and sighed in his heart that he never understood how this woman could recover so quickly, as if he was even one step behind her in this aspect. He only said, "You take the seat, I'll go buy it." Without waiting for a reply, he walked straight to the ordering counter.

An Yi turned around and glanced at the dining area. Was there a need to occupy so many empty seats? But the boss looked so annoying that she didn't want to be refused. She didn't bother to talk nonsense and slowly walked around to find a quiet corner to sit down.

Eh? That's not right, the boss didn't even ask me what I want to eat before I went to buy it! An Yi immediately stood up, hesitating whether to go over and order food. But looking at the handsome man standing out from the crowd, An Yi bit her lip and sat down angrily, letting him buy it! It's just a simple meal anyway, just fill your stomach. I've long been accustomed to the boss's arbitrary rule, but I still can't help but feel suffocated. It's really strange, why has my tolerance level regressed now? It seems that I need to continue to cultivate my character, and I might as well eat vegetarian food in the future. It is said that it can help to calm my heart and avoid unnecessary anger. Concentrating and calming down, adjusting my breath, An Yi silently persuaded herself.

In fact, Ding Hong, who was waiting in line, also realized that he did not ask An Yi what she wanted to eat, so he anxiously drove her away. It was not that he was strong and arbitrary. How could Ding Hong, who thought he was quite gentlemanly with women, deprive others of the right to order food? It was just that the gaffe in the car disturbed his mind. Although he remained calm on the surface, if he was really in a normal state, how could he just point to this fast food restaurant and rush in? He had planned to eat at a Chinese restaurant not far from the client's company, but now he was standing here so awkwardly. Ding Hong's eyes revealed embarrassment, which he was afraid was already unfamiliar to him.

Xiao Yang pushed the door open, looked around, and accurately found the boss and An Yi's location. Without thinking, he walked towards the boss first. After getting the boss's consent, he handed the ointment in his hand to An Yi and left quickly. An Yi did not try to keep him. She knew that Xiao Yang wanted to become invisible now, and it would be best if he could disappear out of thin air.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly, as he was no exception. Looking at the screen of his mobile phone, An Yi cleaned the wound with the wet wipes he carried with him, and then gently applied ointment. He sighed, a small wound had caused such a farce just now, which was really speechless. The boss was right to decide to eat nearby, otherwise the atmosphere in the car just now would drive people crazy.

"So much?" When An Yi saw Ding Hong holding a plate full of food and walking towards her, she blinked in surprise, as if she was afraid that she was seeing things wrong. Then she stood up respectfully to greet him. The boss condescended to personally deliver the food, so she, a humble little employee, had to pretend to be nervous and happy.

"Well, I forgot to ask you what you like, so I ordered a few more." The boss rarely admitted his mistake. Hearing this, An Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, and her suppressed anger finally calmed down. She smiled and said, "I'm fine with anything, boss. Which burger is yours?"

"You choose first, and give the extra ones to Xiao Yang." Ding Hong took the wet wipes handed to him by An Yi and said as he wiped the area.

An Yi nodded without refusing. He started to look at the label on the burger and said with a smile, "The boss is really attentive. Xiao Yang was in a hurry and probably didn't eat enough."

Seeing that she was so well-behaved and obedient, Ding Hong's depression gradually dissipated.

In addition to hamburgers, the boss also bought drinks, fries and some snacks. It was quite rich! An Yi, who hadn't eaten fast food for a long time, felt that this meal was very appetizing. As for the drinks, the one without ice was his own, and the other was the boss's. An Yi was secretly touched.

The two of them just sat opposite each other quietly and ate quietly.

Ding Hong looked up inadvertently and saw that the wound on An Yi's nose was a little wet, knowing that it was because of the ointment. He sighed softly, causing An Yi, who was concentrating on fighting the hamburger, to look up alertly, and his regretful eyes met Ding Hong's, which he did not have time to retract.

An Yi, who understood his boss's thoughts, decided to bring up the topic himself: "Boss, this wound is very small. It only hurt for a moment, and then I didn't feel anything."

Seeing An Yi talking frankly, Ding Hong let his eyes continue to focus on the small red thread, but he was still worried: "Will it leave a scar?"

"Impossible, don't worry! I don't have a scar-prone physique. I've had bigger wounds than this, but now they're invisible." An Yi was quite proud.

Ding Hong finally nodded in relief, indicating that he understood. The two of them ate in silence again.

English pop songs were playing in the restaurant. This time, it was a country style song. Although the tone was gentle and soft, the lyrics told a sad story, which was similar to An Yi's experience. Ding Hong secretly observed and found that An Yi looked normal. He couldn't help but confirm again that his assistant's English level was worrying! This was also what he had been puzzled about, and today he wanted to understand it.

"What do you think of this song?"

An Yi was confused by the question, but he still listened attentively: "Hmm, it sounds pretty good, it seems... a sad song?"

Ding Hong stared into her eyes and nodded: "The lyrics are very sad."

After hearing what the boss said, An Yi thought about it for a moment and understood why this question was asked. She couldn't help but smile a little awkwardly and self-deprecatingly. Putting down the drink in her hand, she decided to answer this question seriously, because the boss has the right to know the work ability of his subordinates.
