My Online Love Is a CEO
Chapter 2
02
For guys on the internet, a CP was a CP, a girlfriend was a girlfriend, and a wife was a wife.
When my girlfriends heard about my story from last night, they all told me not to get too attached.
I understood what they were saying, but whether or not I got attached wasn't up to me—it depended on how good-looking he was.
Take this man in front of me, Felix, for example. I could be obsessed with his looks forever.
"Is this the best you could come up with after two weeks of brainstorming!?"
Felix, the young boss, only had his looks going for him; his character left much to be desired.
His biggest flaw was his mouth, sharp and cold.
"I've practically spoon-fed you, but you still manage to come up with something like this?" Felix was losing his temper.
Kellen, the project manager, and his assistant stood in front of Felix's desk with their heads down. Felix held a few proposals in his hand.
I knew all about this manager—he was great at managing up but lacking in real ability.
So, with time, his flaws became more apparent.
Kellen began to look at me for help.
They always expected me to save them from their messes—it was truly exhausting.
In the three years I had been at this company, whenever they were about to get scolded, I took the heat. Whenever they couldn't handle the pressure, I bore it for them.
If it weren't for the fact that Felix pays better than other companies, I wouldn't want to continue this.
"Felix, you have a more important meeting later. I've already sent the PPT to your email."
Considering that Kellen had always been nice to me, I decided to lend a hand—or rather, to redirect Felix's anger.
Normally, Felix would start mocking me at this point, but today he didn't.
He looked at me with an expression I couldn't quite read and then said, "Alright, I'll take a look first. You two, hurry up and revise these proposals and send them to me today."
Kellen looked at me with admiration and quickly ran out with his assistant.
Not only were they surprised, but I was also taken aback.
I had even prepared his usual lines in my head, like, "Are you teaching me how to do my job now?" or "Secretary Mo, who gave you permission to speak?"
But today, he said nothing of the sort and actually listened.
Unbelievable.
I was caught off guard.

I studied him carefully. Today, Felix had an extra phone.
The phone he usually used was on his desk, but he held a new phone I had never seen before.
I was a bit curious, but since it was the CEO's private life, I didn't ask.
I carried on as usual, brewing coffee, delivering the documents he needed in the morning, and then I left his office.
That was when I received a message from [Moon].
[Show me your legs.]
A million question marks filled my mind, but I couldn't react too obviously in public.
[No, I'm at work.]
Immediately, I was bombarded with a series of red envelope payments.
This kind of financial assault was truly hard to resist!
I never thought that after living so righteously all these years, fate would choose such a way to corrupt me!
[I don't care, just now.]
The power of money was really effective.
I discreetly stretched out my legs and carefully took a photo to send over.
[Negative review!]
I wanted to curse him in my mind, but I couldn't lose my temper.
[Your skin looks nice, but your skirt is too long.]
I rolled my eyes so hard they almost got stuck, but there wasn't much I could do.
[Take another one.]
I gently pinched the hem of my skirt, looked around, then awkwardly lifted it a bit. I took out my phone, picked a good angle to make my legs look longer, and sent it over.
[You have a great figure.]
[I want to see if you're handsome, too, big brother.]
This guy had been asking for photos from me non-stop; I wanted to see what he looked like as well.
Then, he disappeared without a trace.
After working late into the night, I dragged my exhausted body back home, and [Moon] finally appeared.
[Get online.]
I felt a sudden surge of energy, like I'd just had a shot of adrenaline, and quickly logged into the game.
Once online, he immediately invited me to join his team.
He was just as fierce as yesterday, and all the fatigue I felt from the day disappeared instantly.
[You're amazing! If only there was a pro like you to carry me in real life too.]
[It's not impossible.]
His reply left me a bit puzzled.
[Are you a pro in real life too, big brother?]
[Let's just say I can afford to take care of you.]
Though he seemed like he might just be all talk, having someone say that to me still made my heart flutter.
