Chapter 95 CEO Cen, Do You Have Someone You Like?
A kind reader bought me Ko-fis! Thank you very much for your support! Here are the promised bonus chapters! 🖤
Cen Muqi walked into the room and looked at the bed. He was surprised when he saw that Ji Naitang was already asleep. He had heard him when he opened the door earlier. How could Ji Naitang be asleep in the blink of an eye?
He didn’t expose Ji Naitang. He went to take a shower in the bathroom first before approaching the bed.
Ji Naitang had his eyes closed as his heart raced. He could feel that Cen Muqi seemed to be close, but there were no sounds. He didn’t know what Cen Muqi was doing.
He was conflicted for a long time before he secretly opened his right eye a sliver. He saw Cen Muqi’s handsome smiling face really close to him.
Ji Naitang stiffened. His fake sleeping seemed to be exposed. He couldn’t continue to pretend to be asleep anymore. So, he simply opened his eyes and pretended to have just woken up. He yawned and asked, “When did you come back, CEO Cen? How did I fall asleep……?”
Cen Muqi propped himself up and sat on the bed. Ji Naitang didn’t hear a reply and continued asking, “What were you doing just now?”
“I was looking to see how long a certain someone was going to pretend to be asleep for.”
Ji Naitang: “……” Don’t say it so bluntly even if you found out!
“Okay. Tell me. Why were you pretending to be asleep?”
Because I’m scared of you driving me away. Could he say that out loud? It sounded so stupid!
Cen Muqi leaned closer and asked in a low voice, “It’s not because you didn’t want to see me? Teacher Ji, what did I do to offend you? You dislike me so much?!”
“No, that’s not it.”
“Then what’s the reason?”
“I was just pretending to be asleep to scare you.” Ji Naitang causally made up an excuse. Cen Muqi chuckled. Ji Naitang didn’t know whether he believed him or not. But Cen Muqi said, “Childish.”
Ji Naitang felt that their relationship didn’t seem to have changed. He couldn’t understand what Cen Muqi was thinking, as if Ji Naitang was the blind one every time. Could it really be like what that Yaojing said? Ji Naitang had turned into a bitter wife?
“Were you really busy at the company today, CEO Cen?”
“It’s okay. There’s some feedback about the operation of the seaside resort. Then there are also two stores in the mall that suddenly want to relocate, so I went to find out what was going on.”
Cen Muqi’s ability to work had always been very strong. Everyone thought that after his father’s death, even if Cen Corporation didn’t collapse, it still couldn’t maintain its original status. But Cen Muqi took only three years to double Cen Corporation’s performance. The people who were originally not feeling optimistic about Cen Muqi all had their faces slapped.
Ji Naitang then recalled that Cen Muqi had wanted to study medicine before. He asked, “CEO Cen, did you want to be a doctor?”
Cen Muqi was a little surprised as he looked at Ji Naitang. But he thought about it and thought that Ji Naitang probably heard it from Chen Yan. He smiled as he said, “Yes, but it didn’t happen in the end. If you tell me to study medicine now, I won’t be able to learn it anymore.”
“Do you regret it?”
“There’s nothing to regret because it was my choice. What about you? Have you ever thought about doing something before?”
“I never thought about that before.”
Ji Naitang was telling the truth. Before the age of five, he was only thinking about how not to make his father angry. From the age of five to twelve, he thought about how to protect his brother. After the age of twelve, he thought about how to avenge his brother.
So, he had really never thought about what he wanted to do when he grew up or what kind of person he wanted to be. If he thought about it, his twenty plus years of life was very sad and boring.
He turned to look at Cen Muqi. He endured it and endured it before he asked, “Can I ask you a more personal question, CEO Cen?”
“Yes.”
“You – Do you have someone you like right now?”
