Chapter 360 - Workout Session.

Han Corporations-

" Ms. Gu, you're here." Feng Sheng greeted Xu Nuan as soon as she stepped out of the elevator on the Presidential floor. 

Xu Nuan looked up at him with a warm smile and nodded in greeting, " Mr. Secretary, it's been a long time, Huh? You didn't have lunch yet, right? Why don't you join us? It will be fun to eat together." she said as she walked towards Han Zihao's office while Feng Sheng followed behind her. 

Feng Sheng halted in his steps upon hearing her words and stared at her back in a daze. Join them for lunch? Ha…Ha…Haha….what a funny joke.

He would prefer diving in a deep ocean even though he doesn't know swimming rather than eating together with them. Being a third-wheeler between his boss and his girlfriend is no less than being served to the lion as a meal. 

Han Zihao will kill him if he agrees to Xu Nuan's invitation to join them for lunch. He doesn't want to die yet, not as someone's secretary at the least. 

Xu Nuan noticed him stopping behind her and turned around and stared at him in confusion, " Mr. Secretary, is something wrong? Do you have any plans for lunch?"

" Plans? Huh?" Feng Sheng blinked at her in confusion and then nodded hurriedly in response, " Ah, Yes, Yes. I have plans with Ms. Lily. She and I have decided to go on lunch together. So… unfortunately, I cannot join you and Mr. Han for lunch." he said regrettably. 

Lily, whose desk was next to Feng Sheng's and was working on her laptop, her fingers stopped typing upon hearing Feng Sheng's comment. 

She furrowed her brows and looked in the direction where Feng Sheng and Xu Nuan were standing. Lunch? When did they decide to go on lunch together? And…why would she go on a lunch with him, leaving her boyfriend behind? 

What nonsense is this man spouting? She wondered. This man knows that she was planning to have lunch with her boyfriend, since when did they plan to go out together? 

Xu Nuan looked at Feng Sheng in surprise and then turned around to look at Lily who was also staring in their direction. " Really? Are you two going on a date?" Xu Nuan asked curiously. 

Feng Sheng pursed his lips and laughed plainly, however, he didn't answer her. Xu Nuan noticed that he must be embarrassed so she didn't push him further and waved her hand at him, " If that's the case, then I won't disturb you two. Enjoy your date." She leaned in and whispered in a low voice before glancing at Lily and smiled at her meaningfully before opening the door to Han Zihao's office and entering the room.

After Xu Nuan entered the office, Feng Sheng peeked in the direction where Lily was sitting and nodded at her in embarrassment seeing her giving him a side-eye in annoyance. 

" I was….just joking." He laughed, making her raise brows in surprise. 

" It better be a joke, Mr. Feng. As you can see, I am already engaged. I have no interest in you." She said indifferently while staring at him with her robotic expressions. 

" HahaHa….I…know about it very well. Don't worry, I'll give you an expensive gift at your wedding. Hehe." He tried to handle the situation by calling it a joke. He cannot dare to get into an embarrassing situation at work when both of them are supposed to be together and will need to see each other's faces every single day. 

' Hah! It's not easy to be the President's secretary.' He sighed and shakes his head before moving to wrap up his remaining work and go for lunch outside. Alone.

" What took you so long? The food was getting cold." Han Zihao whined like a little kid as soon as Xu Nuan entered his office. 

He was sitting on the couch and food was all set on the glass table in front of him. Before Xu Nuan's arrival, he had already ordered her favorite dishes from the Jade Hotel and had everything set on the table along with cutlery. 

" I am not late. You know, it's the first time that I have taken the lunch break on time. Otherwise, I usually eat in my office while signing off the documents." She answered casually,  forgetting the lies that she had told him before about eating meals on time, without skipping any. 

" Is that so?" Han Zihao asked while staring at her with darkened expressions. It's good that he called her over for lunch, otherwise, she would have again skipped her meal or would have eaten a sandwich or something handy to eat while working. 

Xu Nuan cleared her throat, noticing his stare, and focused on the food, " Let…Let's eat. The food is getting cold." 

_

" Woah!! The food was delicious as always." Xu Nuan moaned in satisfaction after gobbling all the food. She leaned back on the couch and rested her back against the large-fluffy cushion. 

" I want to take a nap but I can't." She closes her eyes while holding another cushion between her arms, hugging it to her chest tightly.

She opens her eyes with much difficulty and peeks at the time on the wall-clock in front of her. " Argh…The lunch break is almost over. But I don't want to go." She groaned again and put the cushion away before standing up. 

" However, I have no choice. I need to work. If I don't work, then who will?" She took a deep breath and decided to not be lazy and go back to the office. After making her decision, she to look at Han Zihao who was staring at her all this time without saying a word. 

" Why aren't you saying anything? Are you angry at me?" She asked in confusion seeing him so cool about her leaving like this. That's so strange. 

Is he annoyed at her? But...his expressions are too calm for that. She wondered. 

Han Zihao smiled and shook his head coolly, " Why would I be angry? I am the one who called you over for lunch and said that you can leave after eating. You're free to go."

She chuckled hesitantly at his words, "You're right. Why would you be angry about it? Then….I'll take my leave." She nodded awkwardly, agreeing to his words and turned to leave when she heard him say, " However, if you leave like this, you will feel tired and sleepy while working since you have stuffed yourself with food so much."

" Are you saying that I have eaten too much?" She furrowed her brows at his sarcastic comment. 

He raised his brows at her sudden question and cleared his throat before saying, " I am just trying to say, you won't be able to work like this even if you try to. You're bound to feel sleepy after eating a heavy lunch." 

Xu Nuan pursed her lips and started to think about his words. He is right. Even if she tries to work in this condition, she won't be able to do anything. 

" Then what should I do to not feel sleepy?" 

Han Zihao's lips curled up in a smirk that went unnoticed by Xu Nuan. " You should do some workout to digest the food and it will help you to stay energetic as well."

Xu Nuan stared at him in confusion, " Exercise? What exercise? Do you have something fun to do in the office?" She asked in curiosity while looking around. Unlike her, his office is so big and spacious, she can't even guess what kind of fun activities they can do here. 

" Well, I think I can spare some time for a workout. It's better to do something than to work with a sleepy head. It won't take much time to go back to the office by car anyway." She said while counting the time in her head. She won't be that late if she does some exercise with him to try to stay awake. 

" So what are we going to do? Huh? Do you have something-

" Ah," Xu Nuan was interrupted in her words and was startled when he suddenly grasped her wrists and pulled her to his side. She was stunned by his sudden actions that she fell straight into his lap and her body bumped into his muscular-sturdy chest.

" What are you-" Before she could process her thoughts, he leaned in and kissed her lips mindlessly. 

His lips sucked on her rose-tinted soft lips and explored the familiar yet new world to him. No matter how many times he kisses her, it feels new and addicting every time. Her lips were so soft and velvety and tasted like soft-cotton candy. 

The addictive cotton candy makes the person crave more of it.
