The two bodies plummeted rapidly, with Ji Xiaocheng tightly holding Mi Li in his arms.
He may not have known that Mi Li had once saved him, but now he was willing to risk everything for her.
Mi Li was deeply moved, tears and snot all over his suit: " Fanfan, I liked you from the moment I first saw you. Let's go to the underworld and be carefree ghost spouses together!"
"Dead woman, who are you cursing to death?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, they landed heavily on the air mattress that the firefighters had set up in the pool.
Ji Xiaocheng positioned himself beneath Mi Li, and even with double protection, Mi Li still felt dizzy and short of breath from the fall, as if her insides were about to burst out.
The pool was surrounded by onlookers. Once Mi Li regained her senses, she saw Ji Xiaocheng with his eyes tightly closed, appearing unable to breathe. In the next moment, without thinking, she pressed her lips against his and began to give him air.
Ji Xiaocheng felt a wave of warmth and softness. Suddenly opening his eyes, the usually calm and composed President Ji found himself blushing, his breathing gradually becoming heavy as his dark eyes locked onto the woman daring enough to demand from him.
Ji Xiaocheng held her waist, flipped over, and took back control: "Have a little modesty as a woman! Such bold actions aren't appropriate for every occasion!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xiaocheng shook off Mi Li and walked through the crowd of onlookers with an air of arrogance.
The next day, Mi Li opened Weibo and was instantly stunned. For someone like her, a commoner, to make it onto the trending list in her lifetime was pure luck. The explosive headline read—Female Employee Commits Suicide for Love; Ji Xiaocheng Follows Her into Death.
Not only that, but she was also doxxed by the omnipotent netizens. In an instant, her follower count skyrocketed, making her a living representation of the new generation Cinderella.
Ji Xiaocheng was worried that Mi Li couldn't handle the storm of gossip, so he brought her back to his side and made her his executive secretary.
“To protect Lu Yu's public image, I can't explain the truth to the media. I'm sorry for putting you in this position,” he said.
President Ji sat on the sofa, glancing at the silent Mi Li in the corner, feeling a bit uncertain.
When he jumped into this situation with her, he had indeed come to some realizations, but it wasn't yet time to resolve them.
Mi Li, holding her phone, lifted her head and retracted her sly smile without a trace: “A bold life needs no explanation; let this beautiful misunderstanding continue.” Inside, she was overjoyed. Through this blunder, not only did she get a taste of President Ji's charm, but she also transformed from a struggling cleaner to his personal secretary and even became a trending topic on Weibo—a definite winner in life!
Afterward, Lu Yu went into hiding to avoid the storm. Before leaving, he said something meaningful to Mi Li: “Xiao Chen is a longtime friend of mine. I know his proud nature well; he won't realize anything without a strong push, so you don't need to thank me too much! As for the future, cherish it while you can!”
Mi Li was waiting for the wealthy Miss Li Fei'er to come looking for trouble in the trending news, but unexpectedly, a month passed and the heiress remained calm and did not show up.
She was enjoying herself, staying close to President Ji and constantly thinking of ways to “Seize Love.”
Ji Xiaocheng often worked late into the night. As his executive secretary, Mi Li naturally accompanied him through thick and thin. She made him a cup of red tea and said with concern, “You should take a break.”
Ji Xiaocheng replied with some resignation, “My life must be pretty boring, right? While others are playing online games, I'm working; while others are enjoying vacations, I'm still working.”
Mi Li looked at him with sympathy and clicked open a webpage with her mouse: “You don’t know how to play? That’s so sad! I’ll help you register an account and teach you.”
Ji Xiaocheng twitched at the corners of his mouth and forcefully snatched back the mouse. "Do you think I want to play?"
With his strong pull, Mi Li lost her support and sat down on his lap, their lips just a line apart.
Faced with such beauty, her body acted before her brain. She raised her arms and wrapped them around Ji Xiaocheng's neck, closing the gap between them.
Ji Xiaocheng gazed at the entranced woman, managing to slip a finger between their touching lips. He instinctively licked his lips and, after a moment of contemplation, said, "You’re so bold in seducing me; aren’t you afraid that Li Fei'er will cause you trouble?"
"I'm not afraid. With you looking out for me, Ji Xiaocheng, I'm not afraid of anything."
Mi Li looked at Ji Xiaocheng with hopeful eyes, her happiness evident.
