Chapter 58: The Perverted CEO’s Demands

[Zhou Ruoyu: Don’t mess with me, hey! We agreed it was a joke, right? I have to work tomorrow, how am I supposed to be your offline gaming companion?]

Upon reading the little rabbit’s message, Gu Jiachen could vividly imagine her bristling with indignation. However, using work as an excuse wouldn’t pass his scrutiny.

‘If she’s accompanying me, the little rabbit can have as much leave as she wants.’

[Gu Jiachen: Didn’t I tell you? Just take leave. If your master tells you to take leave, are you unwilling?]

[Gu Jiachen: Besides, little rabbit, you must miss me too, otherwise, *pfft*, why were you calling me to flirt during work hours just now?]

[Gu Jiachen: Oh dear~ A disobedient little rabbit. If you can’t even provide this small service, then I’ll just have to complain to your company about your fabricated performance!]

‘Who would miss a perverted CEO like you? And it’s only been one day since we last met, it’s not like I’d miss you already!’

Zhou Ruoyu’s mouth twitched uncontrollably as she stared at Gu Jiachen’s messages. But what could she do?

This guy was overtly threatening her, overtly…

After a long moment, the black-haired, long-haired loli gritted her teeth, then silently typed:

[Zhou Ruoyu: Got it… Just come to your office, right?]

[Gu Jiachen: Mhm~ You don’t need to bring anything. Just remember to dress up nicely~]

****

The next day, Zhou Ruoyu woke up late, not stirring until past nine in the morning. With a sense of fatalism, she made her way to Gu Jiachen’s company.

Standing at the office door of her archenemy CEO, Zhou Ruoyu was fuming. She hadn’t expected her leave request to be approved instantly by Dragon Wing last night, without any hesitation.

She had originally planned to use Dragon Wing’s potential refusal as an excuse to fob off Gu Jiachen.

Damn it…

How could Dragon Wing be so understanding?

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Ruoyu lightly knocked on Gu Jiachen’s office door. The moment her knuckles connected, the door was immediately pulled open.

Seeing Gu Jiachen blocking the entrance, the black-haired, long-haired loli was momentarily stunned. After a pause, Zhou Ruoyu tilted her head and asked,

“Gu… Mr. Gu, are you just about to leave?”

“Cough, cough…” Gu Jiachen awkwardly lowered the doorknob, then nodded slightly. He instantly regretted not waiting a few more seconds before responding, but he still insisted,

“Yes… yes! I was just about to head to the restroom. Little rabbit, why are you so late?”

“Hmm~ You didn’t specify a time to arrive! Cough, cough… Alright, Mr. Gu, you go ahead and relieve yourself. I’ll wait for you inside.”

Zhou Ruoyu waved her hand, eager to minimize their time alone. Noticing that the office was empty, the young woman inwardly protested the absence of the male assistant.

Before she could even finish scanning the room, Gu Jiachen suddenly pulled her inside, then closed the door.

“I don’t want to go now. Let’s just start~”

“Eh?”

Zhou Ruoyu was utterly bewildered. ‘No, is this perverted CEO’s kidney function and bladder that strong? He was about to go to the restroom, but he could hold it in?’

‘There’s no need to be so rushed… Uh… Wait, wait a minute!’

Amidst her confusion, a strange possibility suddenly dawned on the young woman. ‘Could this guy have been waiting at the door for me all along? Is that why he opened the door so quickly…’

*Hiss—*

Realizing this abnormality, Zhou Ruoyu shivered. She suddenly felt that the perverted CEO’s purpose today was definitely not just to have her play a few games with him.

Gu Jiachen led her to his computer, and her archenemy even thoughtfully provided her with an office chair. The two sat side-by-side, then… a silence fell between them.

After a while, Gu Jiachen turned on his computer and began searching. ‘Oh… games… games. There aren’t really any games on this computer.’

He suddenly turned to Zhou Ruoyu and asked,

“Little rabbit, what games do you usually like to play? Can you recommend some to me?”

“Oh, oh, oh, this, this… this…” Suddenly asked this question, combined with her instinctive panic from sitting next to her archenemy, Zhou Ruoyu immediately began to babble incoherently.

“*LoL*? *Valorant*? *CS*? I mostly play competitive games. And then, occasionally I play some *galgames*, mostly sweet ones, but sometimes I also dabble in the more bizarre ones, like *Dead Mansion*, *Paradise*, *Friendly Society*… Oh no, no, no, don’t search for those last few!”

After a moment, Zhou Ruoyu suddenly realized what she was doing. Why was she recommending R18G ‘coaching’ eroge to Gu Jiachen? Wasn’t this aiding the enemy?

‘Oh no, if that archenemy CEO actually got into those games, I’d be practically giving my heart and soul away!’

So, a flustered Zhou Ruoyu quickly waved her hands and exclaimed, “Just, just play the first few, cough, cough… I’m telling you, these competitive online games are really fun, especially suitable for a competitive business elite like you~”

‘And it’s also easy to get pissed off by coin-flip teammates… Cough, cough, Gu Jiachen probably has a short temper. Getting him to play these games is a genius plan~ Cough, cough, let that archenemy CEO experience what it’s like to be a god in reality, but a nobody online! Hmph~’

The black-haired, long-haired loli rarely displayed such a fake, professional smile, attempting to trick her archenemy into falling into the trap. However, the moment Gu Jiachen saw her expression, he knew this little one harbored no good intentions.

‘As expected of the little rabbit with whom I have such a deep-seated grudge. Heh… a little ‘training’ is definitely in order~’

So, Gu Jiachen merely curved his lips into a faint smile, then asked,

“Eh? Speaking of which, that game you mentioned before~ It was called… *Conqueror*, how is that game?”

Gu Jiachen’s question immediately made the young woman recall. She slapped her thigh and exclaimed,

“Right… right! I almost forgot if you hadn’t mentioned it. I’m here today for an offline promotional event, cough, cough… So, let’s download the game now. If you don’t log in, my performance won’t be completed. Log in, log in!”

Zhou Ruoyu shouted, then picked up Gu Jiachen’s mouse. After idly moving it a couple of times, the young woman stared at the unfamiliar operating page and fell silent for a moment…

“Eh, no… Why, why is this a Mac?”

“Uh… Is a Mac, not allowed?”

Gu Jiachen tilted his head, causing Zhou Ruoyu’s mouth to twitch. She immediately turned to him, complaining exasperatedly,

“Of course not! You use a Mac… Now I know why you’ve never played games. No, you’re the CEO of a gaming company! There’s no need to be so thoroughly business-oriented, is there? Haven’t you even play-tested your own products?”

“Hmm… Actually, I also have a Windows laptop. Should I bring it over?”

“Absolutely!”

Zhou Ruoyu helplessly clutched her forehead. ‘Help me, it’s rare that I’ve achieved such a hard-won intellectual victory in front of a big shot for the first time…’

As Gu Jiachen returned with a high-performance laptop, the young woman plugged it in and powered up the machine. The archenemy CEO sat beside her, and after a moment, he suddenly reached out, gently placing his hand on her thigh, stroking inwards…

“Today, little rabbit, you’re wearing an OL uniform~”
