Chapter 966: Chapter 966: I am the Lady Boss Chapter 966: Chapter 966: I am the Lady Boss Seeing how adorable he was, Xu Chaomu tiptoed, wrapped her arms around his neck, and pinned him against the corridor wall of the company, nibbling on his lips a few times.
“…” Shen Chi’s eye twitched.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the corridor; otherwise, as the president of the head office, being so disgraceful in a branch, how could he show his face again in the future?
After nibbling a few times, Xu Chaomu let him go and looked at him triumphantly with a smile.
Shen Chi wiped the lipstick mark from the corner of his mouth and glanced at her with disdain.
“Getting touchy-feely in broad daylight,” Shen Chi said contemptuously.
“Don’t like it? If you don’t like it, I won’t do it anymore,” Xu Chaomu shrugged.
“…” Shen Chi gave her a cold look.
He suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist, lowered his head, kissed her lips, and said lightly, “From now on, it has to be like this.”
Xu Chaomu was left dumbfounded. Could he not be so domineering?
Having said that, Shen Chi pulled Xu Chaomu, who was still in shock, by the hand and walked out of the corridor.
Visiting the branch office today, Xu Chaomu had specially dressed in a rather formal suit, standing beside Shen Chi, who was in full formal attire, they looked perfectly matched.
The staff of the branch office gave Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu a tour and invited Shen Chi to give some guidance and suggestions.
Shen Chi chatted with them for a few minutes, and Xu Chaomu also pretended to understand what was being discussed.
As the president’s wife, she couldn’t be completely ignorant.
At mealtime, they even made special arrangements for Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu to dine in the company’s VIP restaurant, and Shen Chi was very satisfied.
Because the branch office had no prior knowledge of his visit, that they managed to make such arrangements on the spot for a surprise inspection was really quite impressive.
“President Shen, the company here in Sydney was originally intended to be handed over to Vice President Shen by Director Shen,” said the general manager of the branch office.
“Oh?” Shen Chi was unaware of this.
“It was something from five years ago when things were quite busy domestically, so you probably didn’t know.”
Xu Chaomu might not understand other things, but this matter made perfect sense to her.
Five years ago, it was said that if it weren’t for Shen Chi’s efforts with the help of a few friends to turn the tide and wrest back control from Shen Shihan, the entire Shen Group would likely belong to Shen Shihan by now.
As Xiao Mo had said, that period had been an extremely draining time for Shen Chi.
“Yes, it was a busy time back then,” Shen Chi said calmly.
“Later, Director Shen let those of us at the branch decide for ourselves whether we wanted to follow Vice President Shen or yourself. I told them you were the true strategist, with both tactics and courage, and subsequently, you won unanimously here, after which Director Shen didn’t inquire further.”
“Then in the future, I will need to ask for more of General Manager Zheng’s hard work,” Shen Chi said.
Xu Chaomu kept quiet; this General Manager Zheng really knew how to seek favor and butter people up. Shen Chi himself didn’t know about it, so who knows if it was something Zheng had made up.
But then again, flattery was comfortable to listen to.
So, when they left the company after the meal, Xu Chaomu also tried her hand at flattering Shen Chi.
“President Shen, I see that at your young age you’ve already accomplished so much. Under your leadership, this branch operates smoothly and efficiently; your leadership is truly admirable and worthy of respect.”
Xu Chaomu had been used to flattering Shen Chi since she was little, first complementing his “handsome presence and elegant demeanor,” and now praising his leadership.
She didn’t need to draft when it came to flattering words.
“Xu Chaomu, can’t you be a little more sincere?!” Shen Chi pinched her face.
“…” Xu Chaomu’s face was covered with black lines.
“Get in the car, I’ll take you to a concert this afternoon,” Shen Chi said.
“Oh,” Xu Chaomu got into the car, “Didn’t I say it well?”
“It was too insincere,” Shen Chi also got into the car.
“Where’s the insincerity? I poured real sentiment into it,” Xu Chaomu pouted her lips.
Okay, she admitted, it was quite phony.
Shen Chi curved the corners of his lips, watching her as she could not even continue her own fabrication, yet still had the nerve to say it wasn’t fake.
Xu Chaomu leaned back in the seat; the driver today was the same handsome young man who had picked them up from the airport.
Xu Chaomu propped up her chin and had a perfect view of his profile from her angle, and she had to admit, this handsome guy was really good-looking. Plus, judging from his clothes and watch, he seemed to have a great sense of style.
After a few glances, she couldn’t help but strike up a conversation, “Hey, handsome, where are you from?”
“I’m from M City.”
“M City, that’s not far from C City, why didn’t you work at the headquarters?”
“I studied in Australia, and later my parents moved over too, so we settled down here,” the young handsome man replied politely.
“That’s nice, the environment here is good, and there’s not as much pressure as back home.”
“Mrs. Shen, you’re right, those are some of the things I value here as well.”
“So… are you married?” Xu Chaomu tilted her head and asked.
“Stop the car!” Shen Chi bellowed.
“Shh–” With a quick response, the young handsome guy had not even had the chance to reply to Xu Chaomu’s question when he immediately hit the brakes.
Xu Chaomu was so scared that she quickly grabbed the passenger seat in front of her, her heart thumping wildly.
“Mr. Shen.” The young handsome man quickly turned his head.
Shen Chi said indifferently, “You go back, I’ll drive.”
Without another word, Shen Chi hopped out of the car, not giving the young handsome man a chance to speak.
Having no choice, the young guy also got out of the car and gave the driver’s seat to Shen Chi.
Shen Chi got into the car and slammed the door shut with a “bang,” then stepped on the gas and drove off.
The young handsome man stood on the street, looking bewildered. Shen’s president sure was decisive in his actions, but why?
Unable to figure it out, he had no choice but to watch the car drive away.
Xu Chaomu was leaning back, eyeing Shen Chi, noticing his face had turned dark and his facial contours tense, tsk tsk.
“Mr. Shen, roll down the window, will you?” Xu Chaomu said on purpose.
“…”
“You’re really smelling of vinegar,” Xu Chaomu continued.
“…”
“Stingy, are you actually mad?” Xu Chaomu pouted, “I was just talking to that guy, but today, didn’t you also chat quite warmly with that female manager from the branch office?”
“That was business.”
“Mine was necessary employee care, don’t forget, I’m the boss’s wife.”
Perhaps it was the phrase “boss’s wife” that struck a chord with Shen Chi, as he finally eased up a little.
“Your kind of care doesn’t look very proper,” Shen Chi said.
“Then go on being jealous,” Xu Chaomu laughed happily.
“…” Shen Chi’s lip twitched.
As the car continued on its way, in the middle of the journey, Shen Chi’s phone rang.
His phone was on the passenger seat, Shen Chi didn’t look at it and instead ordered, “You answer it.”
“Oh.” Xu Chaomu acknowledged and reached for it.
The screen flashed with the name “Xiao Mo,” Xu Chaomu hesitated to answer, “It’s Secretary Xiao, must be… something about work, I guess. I wouldn’t know.”
“Can’t even answer a phone now?” Shen Chi gave her a sideways look.

“Oh.”
Xu Chaomu, left with no choice, answered the call.
“President Shen.”
“Secretary Xiao,” Xu Chaomu said.
“Oh, it’s Miss Xu.” Xiao Mo sounded a bit surprised but quickly composed himself, “Is President Shen there?”
