Secretary Chen has a Headache Again Today!!! - Chapter 6

Chapter 6 – Blind Date

“What’s this?”

The curious Alpha reached out and touched the collar around the Omega’s neck.

Chen Xun was standing quietly in front of the elevator waiting when he was suddenly touched. He almost collapsed.

He suddenly pressed down on his neck ring and turned back to glare at Lian Xufeng, “Lian Xufeng!”

The gland is the most sensitive part of AO’s body, and even the neck couldn’t be touched casually, unless you are a couple or in an ambiguous relationship.

“Sorry.” Lian Xufeng apologised immediately and raised his hands in surrender, “I forgot.”

Chen Xun looked around, luckily no one saw what had happened just now.

He sighed helplessly, subconsciously stroking the gland surrounded by the black collar, and blurted out the reason he had prepared long ago.

“The doctor said that this suppression collar can not only replace the suppression patch, but also eliminate some of the allergy symptoms. He asked me to wear it for the next few days.”

“Oh.” Lian Xufeng had no reason for doubts anymore.

But once he started paying attention, he couldn’t take his eyes off it.

Chen Xun’s neck was white and slender, and suddenly there was a black collar. The strong colour difference made him inexplicably want to tear off the collar and bite the gland.

“Hmm.” Lian Xufeng swallowed silently.

No, it must be because of the erotic dream he had last night, which was so outrageous that he had such blasphemous thoughts about Chen Xun!

‘Go away, demons and monsters! Go away, demons and monsters!’

Chen Xun ignored Lian Xufeng’s weird behaviour. Rather than Lian Xufeng becoming suspicious, Chen Xun was more worried that the touch just now would have leaked Lian Xufeng’s pheromones from his gland.

He held the documents tightly, quickly walked into the president’s office, and threw them on Lian Xufeng’s desk with a clang.

Lian Xufeng’s eyebrows jumped since Chen Xun was not usually so violent.

But what he had done just now was too much, so it was reasonable for Chen Xun to be angry.

“Would you like some iced Americano?” Lian Xufeng walked up to Chen Xun and took out his phone. “I’ll order two cups.?”

Chen Xun shook his head, “No need, Wu Tingmiao just bought me afternoon tea.”

Wu Tingmiao…

The veins on Alpha’s forehead were faintly visible.

‘Forget it,’ seeing that guy was sincere to Chen Xun, he was not a feudal patriarch who did not allow BO to interact with him on an equal footing. At most, he was just keeping an eye on Wu Tingmiao to prevent Chen Xun from being ignorant of the world and being cheated.

“Then let’s have dinner together tonight?” Lian Xufeng continued.

Chen Xun still shook his head, “Dad asked me to get off work on time tonight, and he has something to tell me.”

“What’s the matter with Uncle Zhong?” Lian Xufeng was confused. “Could it be that he wants to make trouble for you because I stood him up on the blind date last time?”

Chen Xun was speechless and choked. “Although my father is strict, you ran away on your own that time. What does it have to do with me?”

Lian Xufeng raised the corners of his mouth awkwardly.

“Okay, there are so many documents, you should finish reading them first.” Chen Xun patted Lian Xufeng’s shoulder and finally showed a comfortable smile on his face.

He assigned Lian Xufeng a task that he could not get away from, including some documents that he could have signed on his behalf. He placed all of them on the president’s desk.

In this way, Lian Xufeng would have no time to worry about him.

Lian Xufeng put on a sour face and expressed his indignation towards the mountain of documents piled on his table

However, he still had to work.

After all, Weiming was established by him and Chen Xun together. How could he be complacent with his current small achievements and stand still?

Chen Xun was satisfied and returned to the president’s secretary’s office with a smile.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Chen Yan squatting pitifully beside his desk.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Xun asked softly.

Wu Tingmiao, who was standing by, appeared next to Chen Xun like a ghost, crossed his arms, and shook his head regretfully, “He has been like this since yesterday.”

Chen Xun pushed him and asked quietly, “Why aren’t you helping him?”

“What can I do?” Wu Tingmiao spread his hands. “You were hospitalised, and President Lian was furious. How could he, a young man, withstand the pressure of a high-level Alpha?”

At this point, Wu Tingmiao couldn’t help but feel lucky, “Fortunately, I’m a Beta, otherwise I would have had to do the same.”

Chen Xun pursed his lips and nodded silently, “Got it.”

He walked to the desk, put one hand on the table, gently pressed the documents on the table with four fingers, and naturally slumped into the office chair.

“Work hard and don’t be lazy.”

“Chen… Secretary Chen…” Chen Yan raised his head, tears welling in his eyes, “Are you okay?”

Chen Xun looked at Chen Yan tenderly, and raised the corner of his mouth. “If I haven’t recovered , how could I be discharged from the hospital? Look at you though, you look even more haggard than me.”

Chen Yan lowered his eyes in shame, “I…I didn’t know you were allergic to peanuts and that you had to be hospitalised…”

“So what?” Chen Xun asked.

Chen Yan looked at Chen Xun in confusion.

“You didn’t know I was allergic to peanuts, and I didn’t know there were peanuts in the cookies. Since no one knew, then no one is to be blamed.” Chen Xun raised his hand to let Chen Yan stand up first. “The company hired you because we hope you can work hard, not lose yourself here.”

“Chen Yan, look at your other colleagues. They have taken on a lot of your work because of your trance.”

Chen Xun leaned back in his office chair, crossed his legs, and said, “Now, forget about that incident and work hard.”

Chen Yan’s lifeless eyes instantly regained their spirits. He immediately stood up, straightened his body, and replied loudly: “Thank you, Secretary Chen! I will definitely work hard!”

•=•=•

Chen Xun stretched and took a break from his work, only to find that everyone in the president’s office had already left work.

Weiming did not advocate “roll culture”. When it’s time, everyone leaves work on their own accord. However, Chen Xun and Lian Xufeng often work overtime because of matters related to the overseas business departments.

“It’s over!” Chen Xun looked at his watch and quickly ran towards the elevator.

He hurriedly pressed the elevator button and made a phone call to the old house first.

Zhong Bo, who adopted Chen Xun, is the steward of the Lian family. Like Chen Xun, Zhong Bo is also an Omega, but he never got married and naturally had no children. He adopted Chen Xun so that Lian Xufeng would have an excellent right-hand man to assist him in the future.

“Ding.” The elevator door slowly opened.

Chen Xun met an Alpha’s eyes in surprise, “Mr. Lian?”

“Why haven’t you gotten off work yet?” Lian Xufeng was also a little surprised.

He took out his cell phone and motioned Chen Xun to come in. “It’s so late, Uncle Zhong will scold you again later, take my car back.”

Lian Xufeng did not live in the old house during weekdays. He lived in a private apartment not far from the company and only went home on holidays .

As for why he never went back to the old house, of course because he was afraid that his parents and elders would urge him to get married as soon as he returned. Even if his father and mother did not urge him, the housekeeper Zhongbo would urge him. Lian Xufeng simply hid himself to avoid getting calluses on his ears.

Chen Xun didn’t drive in today. He looked at the taxi app and saw that there were 32 people in the queue. He had no choice but to nod and agree to let Lian Xufeng’s driver take them both back home.

•=•=•

The car slowly stopped in front of the Lian family’s old house.

The Lian family’s mansion, which had been passed down from generation to generation since the last century, is still majestic and solemn. With red bricks and green tiles, carved beams and painted rafters, the quaint Chinese-style building seems isolated from the world in the bamboo forest halfway up a mountain, revealing the dusty atmosphere of the last century everywhere.

As soon as Chen Xun got out of the car, he ran to the courtyard. From a distance, he saw an old man in a dark blue Tang suit, bending over and sweeping fallen leaves in the courtyard.

“Dad!”

Chen Xun hurriedly ran to the old man, gasping for breath.

Lian Xufeng caught up with him and shouted from behind, “Slow down, what if you fall?”

But just as he finished speaking, the Alpha met the old man’s weathered eyes, and the next second, he withdrew his hand that was about to be placed on Chen Xun’s shoulder.

“How can you run ahead of the young master?”

The old man was about fifty or sixty years old, with grey hair on his temples, but the grey hair and wrinkles on his face could not hide his cold temperament at all. Just by looking at his eyes, one could infer that he must have been a stunning beauty decades ago.

Chen Xun wiped his sweat, glanced at Lian Xufeng behind him, bowed his head and apologised: “I was too anxious.”

Lian Xufeng was speechless, but he still stepped forward to speak for Chen Xun: “Uncle Zhong, what era is it now? The cement road is so wide, those who can walk faster can go first. There is no principle that one person must be in front and another must be behind.”

Uncle Zhong glanced at Lian Xufeng.

The displeasure in his eyes almost overflowed.

“Master.” Uncle Zhong said word by word, “You are the master, Chen Xun is my child, and he is also your servant…”

“Ouch!” Lian Xufeng shouted, holding his stomach and walking inside, not caring about the long speech that Zhong Bo was about to give. “I’m hungry. I’m going to eat first. Chen Xun! You come too!”

Chen Xun stared at Lian Xufeng’s back, then looked back at his father in embarrassment, “Dad…”

Uncle Zhong took a deep breath, squinted his eyes, and said with all his strength: “You go ahead, it’s not a big deal, I’ll go after I finish cleaning here.”

“Hey.”

Chen Xun felt relieved, thinking that it wasn’t a serious matter since his father allowed Lian Xufeng to take him away.

Because the two had returned suddenly, the other owners of the Lian family were not at home. Lian Xufeng’s father and mother were at a friend’s cocktail party, and his younger sister had gone to socialise with her friends. Only Lian Xufeng and Chen Xun were seated at the dinner table.

“Dad, let me eat with you.” Chen Xun stood up and walked to Uncle Zhong who had just finished cleaning the yard.

The relationship between superiors and subordinates in the Lian family is very strict, but Zhong Bo is, after all, an old servant who has watched Lian Xufeng grow up since he was a child. He is almost half a father to Lian Xufeng. The Lian couple also respect him very much and have long regarded him as a family member.

But Zhongbo was a pedantic person and insisted on drawing a clear line between himself and his superior, and was unwilling to sit at the same table with his superior.

Lian Xufeng was a little dissatisfied that he couldn’t sit at the same table with Chen Xun, but he knew that the key to the matter was Uncle Zhong, so he waved his hand and advised him: “Uncle Zhong, you also know that I have bad habits. I am not used to Chen Xun not sitting next to me. How about this, you guys save a seat for me at the small dining table later, and I’ll take a bowl over to eat?”

Chen Xun winked at Lian Xufeng secretly, but was ruthlessly rejected by the other party.

When Chen Xun was first brought back to the Lian family, he was very skinny. Mrs. Lian felt sorry for him and asked Chen Xun and Lian Xufeng to sit together for meals. This continued even after Lian Xufeng’s younger sister was born. Gradually, everyone got used to Chen Xun eating together.

Uncle Zhong frowned sternly and wanted to refuse, but when he saw Chen Xun’s flickering eyes, he softened his heart and had to go to the kitchen to get his own bowl and chopsticks.

The meal was eaten in silence.

Lian Xufeng achieved his goal and quickly picked up a piece of meat for Chen Xun. Before Zhongbo could stop him, he also picked up a piece for Zhongbo.

The success of keeping the family in peace depended on Lian Xufeng~

Halfway through the meal, Chen Xun remembered the purpose of his early return, “Dad, didn’t you say you had something to tell me this morning?”

Zhong Bo put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth slowly, “Please free up some time this weekend.”

Chen Xun thought that there would be no work on the weekend, so he responded without thinking: “Okay.”

“Young Master is ambitious. Since you are not in a hurry to find a partner, forget it.”

Uncle Zhong glanced at Lian Xufeng who was concentrating on eating with a meaningful look, then turned to Chen Xun and continued, “But you are not young anymore…”

“I found a blind date for you. You can meet up this weekend.”

‘Blind date?’

Chen Xun was startled. Before he could even react, the Alpha next to him put down his bowl and chopsticks with a bang, “Blind date?! No! I don’t agree!”
