Chapter 136: 136, Marry me, I will take care of you
Song Qinghuan, looking unhappy, replied, “Nothing, our manager needs me for something, I need to go back to the office, there’s an email I need to send to him.”
The document is saved on the office’s computer, to send it to Zhao Jingnan again, she can only do it from work.
Zhan Cheng was not happy either, his face darkening instantly: “What’s going on, having to work even after work hours?”
Song Qinghuan helplessly said, “There’s no choice, this is my job. That’s how office life is, your boss is your absolute authority, whatever he says goes, if he tells you to do something, you have to do it.”
Zhan Cheng sneered dismissively and then suddenly a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Gazing at Song Qinghuan, his eyes were filled with deep love. He laughed and said, “Huanhuan, then stop working, marry me, let me take care of you.”

Looking up, she spotted a tall silhouette standing by the car, waiting quietly for her.
Hearing footsteps, Zhan Cheng lifted his head and spotted Song Qinghuan as she exited the building. He immediately put on a smile and came up to her: “Is everything sorted out? Ready to go for dinner?”
Song Qinghuan made an ‘ok’ gesture with her hand.
Looking around, she spotted the low-profile yet luxurious Maybach that she’d driven that afternoon. It was parked next to the stone lions at the entrance of the company, just like its owner, sternly and waiting, the perfect lines bathed in the dim streetlights emanating a touch of bright radiance.
