Luo Xichen's face darkened when he saw the roses.
Such a childish way, how f*cking tacky!
Sha Zhixing did not notice the look on his face. She lowered her head and was arranging the bouquet. She did not like roses, and like Luo Xichen, they both thought that roses were tacky. On this point, the two of them had a tacit understanding.
When she saw the flowers, Sha Zhixing wanted to throw them away, but she thought about it and held back her impulse.
She did not know who the person who sent the flowers was, nor did she know the intention of the person who sent the flowers. It would be unethical for her to trample on the good intentions of the person who sent the flowers.
Now that she thought about it, Sha Zhixing found the flowers much more pleasing to the eye.
She picked up a bouquet and sniffed it. The faint fragrance of the flowers made the corners of her lips curl up slightly.
Luo Xichen stood next to her with a solemn face. He quietly watched her movements and looked at the happy expression on her face. Then, he thought of the disgust she felt when she saw the room full of rose petals the night before. His well-crafted face suddenly looked as if it had been frozen for thousands of years.
He walked up to her and picked up a bouquet of flowers. He took a look at the flowers and savaged them with his big hand. Luo Xichen threw the flowers straight into a trash can not far away.
"For the sake of the air quality in the office, no flowers are allowed here from now on!" Luo Xichen said without changing his expression. He picked up a tissue and wiped his fingers with it.
"Flowers are a natural air freshener." Sha Zhixing did not even look at him and corrected him.
Luo Xichen looked at her expressionlessly and replied lazily. "I don't like it."
His tone was very calm when he said this. However, the arrogance in his words made Sha Zhixing's expression change slightly.
What did he mean by he didn't like it? Couldn't the whole office smell like this because he didn't like it?
Sha Zhixing was angry. Was he deliberately looking for trouble?
Sha Zhixing was very angry. A fire was burning in her chest. She wanted to refute him, but she calmed down after a few seconds and held back her impulse.
She was just a small assistant now. How would the others feel if she blew up the president in front of everyone?
She looked up slowly and looked at him quietly. "I like it!" she retorted.
Luo Xichen raised his eyebrows and looked at her with narrowed eyes. His gaze was so sharp that it seemed like it was going to pierce through her.
Sha Zhixing had goosebumps on her arms because of his stare, but she did not show any expression on her face. She only looked at him for a moment, then lowered her head and continued to tidy up the bouquet.
Luo Xichen's eyes fell on her hand as she was arranging the bouquet. His thin lips suddenly curved upwards.
Then, he slowly said, "If you do anything else during office hours, your second month's salary will be deducted."
Sha Zhixing, who was holding a large bouquet of flowers and looking for a place to plant them, froze after he said that. She suddenly looked up.
Luo Xichen stood in front of her desk and looked down at her. He raised his wrist and expressionlessly turned the Cartier watch he was wearing towards her.
The time was 9:01...
