Don't Fall In Love With The Boss

Chapter 24

After all, he was her future boss so she couldn’t just let things sit in such an awkward state.

Qian Wei, who finished making the necessary mental adjustments, explained, “Really, that was not my fault. The quilt you were using was obviously Qian Chuan’s. I know because that quilt is exactly the same as my quilt. It’s the kind we both usually carry when we go out, so I thought it was Qian Chuan under the quilt. I didn’t know it was you.”

“So you’re saying it was not your fault. Does that mean it was my fault?”

Lu Xun gave Qian Wei a superficial glance before quickly turning his head away again.

“That… that’s not what I meant. I just don’t understand why you were using Qian Chaun’s quilt.”

Lu Xun seemed to have made up his mind to ignore Qian Wei so she had no choice but to sit quietly and bask in the awkward atmosphere.

Qian Wei looked at Lu Xun’s profile and was once again struck by how beautiful the lines of his face really were. Her thoughts began to scatter randomly as she was mesmerized by Lu Xun’s profile, and she said: “Are you… do you admire Qian Chuan? Is that why you were using his quilt?”

Lu Xun finally turned around and faced Qian Wei. Although Qian Wei tried to control herself, she couldn’t help glancing down at Lu Xun’s lower body. With this glance, memories of the scene she had just seen surged up and Qian Wei felt even more embarrassed.

“Didn’t you see very clearly just now whether I like women or men?”

Lu Xun spoke through gritted teeth and put special emphasis on the two words ‘very clearly’.

Qian Wei blushed and pretended not to understand: “I don’t know what you’re talking about, how would I know whether you like men and women? Actually, it’s very hard to say, because there are some people, called bisexuals, who like women as well as men. There are also some people who are convinced that they absolutely only like women, they think that they are straight as a steel beam, but in fact, they just hadn’t met the right man. Once they meet the right man, they will bend faster than anyone else. Especially for a good-looking man like you, it’s even harder to say for sure. I mean, you know, 100% pure gold is soft and easy to bend and, in the same way, men who are extremely good-looking or have especially high quality can also easily bend. When something is excellent and pure to the extreme, it’s more malleable…” Qian Wei spread her hands helplessly. “Otherwise, it’s really hard for me to understand why you wanted to use Qian Chuan’s quilt.”

“He had a soda that exploded and soiled the sheets on both beds, so when I wanted to sleep, he lent me his sheets first.” Lu Xun was silent for a long time before finally giving that answer. Then he glanced at Qian Wei and said, “Why are you so hopeful that I like men? What’s in it for you if I like men?”

“No, it makes perfect sense when you explain it like that. How could I be hopeful that you would like men? If you didn’t like women, it would be a loss to all women!” Qian Wei quickly began spouting flattery, “Now the truth finally came out, it seems that this thing can’t be blamed on me at all. It’s not my fault and it’s not your fault. It’s all that son of a bitch, Qian Chuans’s, fault! It was a total accident and this was all just a beautiful and terrible misunderstanding.”

“I don’t want to talk about this anymore.” Lu Xun frowned and looked a little embarrassed. But as if to cover that up he took a hard sip of his beer, “This never happened.”

“Hey guys, two cups of hot milk tea for the two ladies!”

Just when she was feeling awkward, Qian Chuan came back. Just as he stepped through the door, Mo Zixin also came back. After that, the four people played several games of cards while the rest of the group trickled back from watching the fireflies one after another. Finally, Qian Wei was able to use Liu Shiyun as an excuse to run away.
