Chapter 239
[Short Composition·5 This Must Be the Final Chapter of a Serious President-CEO Romance Novel]
Today, Qin Wei was late for work as usual. Supervisor Wei Lai stopped her at the door and shoved a folder into her arms.
"Starting today, you don't need to come here anymore."
Wei Lai's words hit Qin Wei like a bucket of ice water. Her face changed color.
"Have I been fired?"
[Qin Wei: Good job!]
Wei Lai shook his head.
"The CEO is lacking an assistant and asked for you by name."
And so, Qin Wei was transferred from a slack job to the CEO's office, becoming an assistant to the CEO.
That morning, Liu Simin gave her simple training. At lunchtime, the CEO had business to attend to and left the office, so Liu Simin arranged for Qin Wei to accompany the CEO.

"CEO Shen, you have business to attend to at the theme park too?"
"Yes, we’re going in. I booked the whole place."
[Go on her favorite rides]
"What business requires riding the drop tower?! CEO Shen! Are you okay?! Wake up, CEO!"

When he came to, it was almost nighttime. Shen Kai looked at the hospital's stark white walls. Qin Wei was sitting next to him with a speechless look on her face. He closed his eyes again.
I’ve lived this life too slowly...

At 5:30 AM, Liu Simin yawned as he drove the CEO's Lamborghini, sending him to the metro station on the outskirts of the city by around 7AM.
With the help of metro staff, the CEO who had never taken the subway before successfully bought a ticket and went in to wait for the train.
One subway car after another left, until finally Qin Wei appeared!
"Oh, what a coincidence," Shen Kai said, feeling like he had been standing there for nearly a century and his legs were about to fall off, but still trying to act casual with a hint of surprise and accident in his tone.
Qin Wei pushed her glasses up on her nose. Was she so tired from gaming all night that she was hallucinating? How could she run into the CEO in such a desolate place?
[Qin Wei: A desolate place? Am I some kind of wild animal?]
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Wei saw a subway train speeding their way. There was no time to greet the CEO. Qin Wei solemnly and resolutely stated:
"Don't worry, CEO! As your assistant, I will help you!"
Shen Kai: "?"
The safety doors opened and a surge of people flooded out. Qin Wei took ten steps back, then charged forward, slamming into Shen Kai with tremendous force. Shen Kai only felt a powerful impact hit his body before his vision went black and his head buzzed.
When he came to his senses, he was already inside the crowded subway car, smushed against the glass window, his face distorted.
And Qin Wei still stood at the subway platform, gazing at him with a grave yet determined look. I can only help you this far. As long as you can make it to the company on time, I'm willing to sacrifice!
As the subway departed, he moved further and further away from her.
Shen Kai slapped the glass and wailed:
“No, this is not it!”
Watching the CEO's vanishing figure, Qin Wei's eyes brimmed with tears. To ensure the CEO would be on time, she had sacrificed her own punctuality. The CEO must be very touched!
She wiped her tears.

"Qin Wei, go downstairs. Get the documents from the trunk of my car."
In the office, Shen Kai instructed Qin Wei. Worried she wouldn't know which car, he specifically added:
"That champagne-colored Mercedes-Benz SUV."
Qin Wei went to the underground parking garage alone and found the car he described.
She opened the trunk. It was filled to the brim with fragrant lilies.
Nearly a thousand filled the space. It was quite a spectacle, the scent overwhelming. Qin Wei stood frozen.
"I read the autobiography you wrote for your elementary school classmates. You wrote that you like lilies, so I got these for you," Shen Kai said as he walked over from behind her.
Qin Wei slowly turned her head, eyes brimming red, tears welling up.
Shen Kai's mouth curved into a smile.
Women, you're touched so easily? Then I don't need to fire Liu Simin.
"I like..."
Qin Wei gave a little sniff.
"I like the kind of lilies you can stir fry with celery. Have you ever tried stir fried lilies with celery, CEO? Also, I'm allergic to pollen, and there are way too many flowers in your car... Achoo!"
Shen Kai: "......"

Liu Simin: “CEO, trust me one more time! I discovered an earth-shattering secret about Miss Qin! It’s absolutely accurate!”
“Get out.”
“CEO...she likes xiaohuntun dumplings from a restaurant called the Sun Family Huntun Restaurant...”
Shen Kai frowned, stopping security from dragging Liu Simin away:
“As long as she likes something, she must have it! Because she’s destined to be my woman! Go buy out that restaurant. I want her to become the lady boss there!”
Liu Simin: “CEO, I asked and the Sun Family Huntun Restaurant has already been acquired by someone named Miss Qiao.”
“Miss Qiao?”
Liu Simin nodded.
Shen Kai was silent for a long time. He put his hand on his forehead, a regretful and pained expression on his face. He murmured:
“I should’ve known it was her. Childhood sweethearts who grew up together. She still loves me, but I can’t reciprocate...”
[Qin Wei: Hah! So the simp is Teacher Qiao? o(^o^)o]
[Qiao Sixiao: ......]
Shen Kai stood up and banged the table, seeming to have made up his mind:
“Qiao Sixiao doesn’t want to hate me, so she redirected all her hatred onto Qin Wei! This is my fault. I’m going to beg her to let me have Qin Wei!”
[Qin Wei: Who wants who? I’m confused. How about you guys?] Outside the company building, Qiao Sixiao stood with her arms crossed, glaring fiercely at Qin Wei.
[Qin Wei: Fight! Fight! Tear each other’s hair out!]
Qiao Sixiao said coldly:
“I’ll give you whatever you want! As long as you stay away from Shen Kai!”
Right then Shen Kai happened to walk over.
Shen Kai yelled, “Don’t fight over me! This is what I least want to see!”
Both women looked his way.
Shen Kai put his hand on Qiao Sixiao’s shoulder and earnestly told her:
“Qiao Sixiao, I’m in the wrong to you. I’ll do my best to make it up. My heart only has space for her now!”
Then he turned to Qin Wei:
“I wanted to prepare an extravagant confession for you, but right now I must tell you—Qin Wei, I like you and want to be with you! We created so many beautiful memories together at the amusement park and on the subway! Once I asked what your biggest life dream was and you said you like big villas. I already bought one! I want us to live there together in the future, to share that home!”
Qin Wei took half a step back and politely declined:
“No need, thanks. I already have a big villa.”
Shen Kai: “Huh?”
Qin Wei: “Really big. Even the doghouse in the yard downstairs is over 100 square meters. It has everything, except the bedroom floorboards got water damaged. I was thinking of changing them to pink.”
Qiao Sixiao contemplated:
“Wouldn’t pink be too childish?”
Qin Wei pouted angrily:
"Didn’t you say you’d give me anything I want?"
Qiao Sixiao conceded:
“Okay, okay. Whatever you like.”
[Qin: ??]
[Qiao: ???]
[Wei Lai: (//?//) I think this could be adapted into a TV drama!]
[Qin Wei: How many times do I have to say it? The plot of this silly fanfiction cannot be adapted...]
[You You: Seems like something is missing?]
[Director Sun: Yes, the parts that can't be adapted weren't read.]
[Qin: My arm hurts, my blood pressure is high, I'm dizzy. Have you all been discussing fanfiction all night? What on earth is going on here?]
[Qiao: Let's sleep...]
[Shen Qingqing: Sweetie, add a section at the end where Brother Kai is very dejected, I suddenly appear to comfort him and help him get out of his low period, and he ends up with me!]
[Sun Sweetie: No.]
[WeChat Red Envelope][Wishing You Prosperity and Good Fortune!]
[Sun Sweetie has accepted your red envelope]
Shen Kai felt very dejected. Shen Qingqing suddenly appeared to comfort him and helped him get out of his low period. Shen Kai was very touched and got together with Shen Qingqing.
The End.
[Shen Qingqing: Just 200 bucks and you brush me off so casually??]
