Chapter 905 - 909: No Need to Find Excuses for Staying in Bed
After breakfast, it was nearly ten o’clock. Leng Zimo took the tray downstairs, and Luo Xiaoqian got out of bed, put on her clothes, and stood in front of the full-length mirror. Seeing the marks he left on her neck, she helplessly frowned again, hurried back to her room to take a scarf to wrap around her neck, and finally went downstairs.
Leng Zimo picked up his suit jacket from the sofa, "Shall I give you a ride?"
"No!" Luo Xiaoqian refused through gritted teeth.
"Alright then." He stepped forward to her, tucked the two loose strands of hair behind her ear, and successfully kissed her lips, "Tomorrow is the weekend, you won’t need to find an excuse for sleeping in, see you tonight."
He let go of her, blushing and her heart racing, and turned to the front door.
Stopping by the door, Leng Zimo turned to look at her, licked his lips, "Don’t use lipstick in the future, that stuff’s not good for you. Your lips are beautiful, you don’t need it, and reapplying it is a hassle."
Picking up the underlying meaning of his words, she just bit her silver teeth tightly.
"Leng Zimo, you pervert."
He chuckled, opened the door, and stepped out.
Watching the door he closed, she laughed, then took out a makeup mirror from her bag and wiped the lipstick off her lips.

By the time Luo Xiaoqian rushed to the company, it was already noon. Just as she entered, she saw Mike chatting with a few subordinates. When they saw her coming in, they immediately fell silent, pretending to read the newspaper as a disguise.
"Why’d you stop talking?" She walked over with a smile, "Some gossip? Share it with me too?!"
Despite being the BOSS, she always blended in with her subordinates, never putting on the airs of a boss.
"Nothing much, we were just discussing which drink gets you drunk more easily." A young male subordinate laughed and said.
"Isn’t it obviously red wine? Candlelit dinner, music, plus a handsome guy, with that even if the wine doesn’t get you drunk, you’d still feel tipsy, right everyone?!" Beside him, another young girl chimed in.
Realizing they were teasing her, Luo Xiaoqian turned her head sideways, looking at Mike, who just shrugged, "You guys forced me!"
"Wow!" Seeing the news on the newspaper, a girl exclaimed, "Magic Realm 2 is about to start filming, besides Emperor Qin Lan, Emperor Leng might also make an appearance..."
A few girls immediately crowded over excitedly, discussing the news.
"Is that true? He hasn’t acted in a movie for ten years, right?!"
"Back when the first Magic Realm was shot, he said he would cameo with Luo Xiaoqian as a friendly gesture. He eventually did, so this might just be a publicity stunt again?!"
Watching them, Luo Xiaoqian stepped towards her office.
"Hey, I just noticed..." A slightly older girl stood up, examining Luo Xiaoqian’s face, "Haven’t you guys noticed that Sissi and Miss Luo look alike!"
"Miss Luo, which Miss Luo?" a young girl asked puzzled.
"You young folks surely wouldn’t know, five years ago, she was an extremely popular star. When I was in college, she was my super idol, but unfortunately, she retired from the music scene just six months after debuting." The older girl scrutinized Luo Xiaoqian, "It’s really too similar."
Her Chinese name was known to no one except her son Luo Jun, even Mike only knew her last name was Luo. As for these new employees in the company, they only knew her English name, Sissi, hence naturally unaware of her true identity.
In front of her employees, Luo Xiaoqian’s expression remained calm.
In five years, she transformed like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, she had long learned to disguise, except in front of Leng Zimo, apart from him, there were few who could easily make her flustered.
"Seems like no one’s hungry, so how about we skip lunch and go straight to the meeting?!"

Good night
