Chapter 523 Had No Such Thoughts

Since it was an internal dinner at Fanxing Magazine, there should be no others.

Most people in the magazine knew that Song Yunxuan admired Shao Xue very much. Therefore, it was understandable to call Shao Xue for dinner in the evening.

After arriving here, Shao Xue got stunned when she saw Mei Qi by Song Yunxuan’s side. Then she greeted Song Yunxuan, “Yunxuan.”

Song Yunxuan saw the Shao Xue’s brief wandering. She smiled at her, “We are waiting for you. What took you so long?”

Shao Xue pursed her lips slightly, “Family matters. Sorry, I’m late.”

Actually, there was nothing in her family. She just dressed herself up before she came.

She could not say it out directly. Therefore, she told a small lie.

Song Yunxuan found Shao Xue’s dressing. Thinking of Shao Xue’s eyes and expressions when she saw Mei Qi, Song Yunxuan almost guessed what happened.

Song Yunxuan deliberately arranged for Shao Xue to sit near Mei Qi when she sat down.

Mei Qi did not have much reaction to Shao Xue’s eyes on him occasionally.

Instead, Song Yunxuan fell into thoughts when she saw Shao Xue staring at Mei Qi.

Speaking of it, Mei Qi was not young now.

Although he had not been forty yet, he was over ten years older than Shao Xue.

Shao Xue was in her twenties this year. Although she had an equal social status to Mei Qi, she had much fewer social experiences than him.

Shao Xue had experienced family changes when she was young. But she was not as experienced and mature as Mei Qi who had been playing tricks in those rich families for years.

Every woman would be attracted by a mature, stable, and connotative man. When such a man was equipped with a fascinating appearance, he would be like a walking hormone, attracting women’s attention and infatuation.

Mei Qi was exactly a man like that.

His attraction was fatal for Shao Xue, who was new in her career.

Song Yunxuan was not against the age-gap relationship. She thought Mei Qi had no affection for Shao Xue.

While they had dinner, someone proposed to play a game for fun.

Song Yunxuan agreed. Xiao Hong and other colleagues discussed for a while. They asked to play Truth or Dare.

Song Yunxuan thought it a good game to help Shao Xue once they played well. She nodded, “Let’s play it.”

Xiao Hong’s spirits rose. She put away the red wine bottle on the table and introduced the rules. “Whoever the bottle turns to will choose either Truth or Dare. I’m not in the game. Manager Song will be the judge.”

Song Yunxuan was the boss. She had the right to judge.

Saying the rules, Xiao Hong started to turn the bottles.

Mei Qi had wanted to get up and walk away to have a cigarette outside.

He turned out to be caught by Song Yunxuan.

Song Yunxuan stopped him, “Assistant Mei, it’s a team game. You should stay and play with us together.”

“It’s improper for me to play this game.”

Mei Qi wanted to refuse, but Song Yunxuan did not care what he said. She said with a smile, “Why improper? Stay here. I say you stay.”

Song Yunxuan wanted him to play. Of course he had to play.

Song Yunxuan was his boss.

Mei Qi could not avoid the game, so he could only sit by the table, following the game.

He had thought that the bottle would never turn to him.

Unexpectedly, after two rounds, the bottle passed by Song Yunxuan and stopped at him.

Xiao Hong coughed slightly. She turned to Song Yunxuan, “Manager Song, I’m wondering whether Assistant Mei is in this game.”

Song Yunxuan smiled, “Of course he is in. Otherwise, why is he sitting here?”

After saying that, Song Yunxuan turned to Mei Qi, “Assistant Mei, you are in this game, aren’t you?”

Mei Qi could do nothing but nod, “Yes.”

Seeing Mei Qi nodding, Xiao Hong went on and asked Mei Qi seriously, “Assistant Mei, what’s your option, Truth or Dare?”

Mei Qi was about to choose one.

Song Yunxuan had chosen for him, “He chooses the Dare.”

Mei Qi thought he had no options when he played the game with Song Yunxuan by his side.

He felt a little hurt.

Song Yunxuan did not care about his feeling but looked at Xiao Hong.

It meant to let Xiao Hong announce that Mei Qi was going to play Dare.

Mei Qi did not know what a stupid thing Song Yunxuan would ask him to do.

However, it was his boss’s request. He could have no question but follow it.

Xiao Hong cleared her throat and said, “Assistant Mei chooses the Dare. Well, Manager Song, you can decide what he should do. What do you want?”

Thinking for a while, Song Yunxuan said, “Assistant Mei has been single for a long time. Why don’t we help him? Let’s see whether we can find his destiny among you, unmarried ladies. ”

Hearing her words, those unmarried female staff present were excited.

Song Yunxuan glanced at Shao Xue and saw her earlobes become red.

Obviously, Shao Xue was also looking forward to the game.

Song Yunxuan did not want to let Shao Xue down since Shao Xue and Mei Qi were both her confidants.

Song Yunxuan said, “If you unmarried ladies want to play this game, you should sit by the table. We spin the bottle. When it stops, the one can stay with Assistant Mei in the next room for an hour to bond. Is that okay?”

Those female staff was glad to hear Song Yunxuan’s proposal.

Some people with short sight might think that Mei Qi was just a normal assistant beside Song Yunxuan. However, the staff knew that Song Yunxuan was Fanxing Magazine’s supervisor. She was not a nobody.

Thinking it over, they knew that Mei Qi was not simple.

Therefore, besides Mei Qi’s appearance, they were willing to put a bet on Mei Qi, regarding him as a high-flyer.

The female editors in the magazine were all brilliant students in the liberal arts class, including several female staff who had doctoral degrees.

Of course they could see the pros and cons.

Therefore, since the bottle started to turn, they had been staring at it and expecting it to stop towards themselves.

Song Yunxuan thought of this idea because she also wanted to know whether Shao Xue and Mei Qi were meant to be together.

If the bottle had stopped towards Shao Xue, Song Yunxuan would have asked for Shao Xue’s feeling and helped her with this important relationship.

However, if it had not stopped towards Shao Xue, Song Yunxuan would have admitted that Mei Qi and Shao Xue were not fated to be together.

The staff present were wishing the bottle to stop towards themselves.

Finally, the bottle stopped, and it pointed at Shao Xue.

Song Yunxuan couldn’t help smiling as she saw the result, “It seems that it is destiny to choose Shao Xue for Assistant Mei.”

Xiao Hong looked at the result. She said, “Shao Xue happens to be single. You can bond with Assistant Mei.”

Song Yunxuan’s eyes crooked and she turned to Mei Qi, “Alright. Assistant Mei, since it is destiny, you can go and talk to Shao Xue.”

Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Mei Qi turned to Shao Xue.

Shao Xue was happy to be chosen. However, she could not express it but clenched her fists.

Song Yunxuan saw Shao Xue blush slightly. She said to Mei Qi with a smile, “Go to the next room. We are waiting for your good news.”

Mei Qi could do nothing but get up to invite Shao Xue, “Miss Shao, why don’t we have a cup of tea in the next room?”

Shao Xue nodded. She got up gracefully and looked at Song Yunxuan.

Song Yunxuan nodded at her. She seemed to arrange this game for her and look forward to seeing Shao Xue being alone with Mei Qi.

With a little anxiety, Shao Xue did not calm down until Song Yunxuan nodded at her.

Then she nodded at Song Yunxuan as well to reassure her.

Song Yunxuan saw Mei Qi and Shao Xue walk out of the room. She said to Xiao Hong and other staff, “Let’s go on.”

Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Xiao Hong clapped her hands to warm up the party and continue the game.

Shao Xue did not know what she should say to Mei Qi after they went out of the room.

On the contrary, Mei Qi did not feel restrictive. After opening the door of the next box according to the game rules, he made a gesture of invitation, “Miss Shao, after you.”

Being invited by Mei Qi, Shao Xue nodded and walked in.

Seeing Shao Xue walk in, Mei Qi followed her.

The light in the room was a little dim but perfect enough.

People could feel that the romantic ambiguity floated in the atmosphere.

Shao Xue had this ambiguous feeling, but she knew how to break the silence. Seeing a set of tea set on the table, she asked Mei Qi, “Assistant Mei, you drank some wine just now. How about having some tea? I’ll make it for you.”

Since Shao Xue took the initiative to make tea for him, he did not refuse it.

Mei Qi nodded, “Thank you, Miss Shao.”

Shao Xue made tea. After finishing it, she handed a cup of tea to Mei Qi.

After she handed the tea to Mei Qi, she heard Mei Qi’s words, “In fact, I have no such thoughts.”
