"Hey..."
Nicole was about to refute, but she was stopped by Jacob's deep kiss. She was somewhat lost in her
thoughts. Why did such soft lips always say harsh words?
"Stay focused."
Jacob complained unhappily and quietly retreated.
Until there was a knock on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock --"
Nicole suddenly woke up. She put her hands on his chest and tried to push him away.
The knock didn't stop. Although he was reluctant, he had to stop.
"Come in."
Jacob took back his kneeling leg and stood straight again, looking at the door.
The office door was opened and the Secretary popped his head in.
"President Gu, several managers want to invite you to have dinner together. They let me ask you if you
have time."
Jacob nodded and said, "tell them, I'll be right there."
"Okay, I'll ask them to get the location. I'll tell you the address once I have it."
"Okay."
The Secretary closed the door and went out in high spirits. Nicole lowered her head and blushed to the
ears.
Jacob lowered his head and stared at her red face. He wanted to eat her right here right now.
However, he also knew that he couldn't be so reckless to do so in this company. After all, it was a new
company, and its facilities and security couldn't be compared with his general company.
"Well, get ready. Let's go and have dinner together later." Jacob breathed deeply to calm himself down
and ordered to Nicole.
Nicole raised her head, confused, "Should I go with you?"
"Of course. Or what?" Jacob said.
"But... I don't know any of your employees, and there will be misunderstanding if you take me there... "
Nicole's voice became lower and lower, and she could not continue after that.
Jacob stretched out and straightened his tie that was loosened because of that kiss. He looked at
Nicole and said, "no misunderstanding. You are indeed my woman."
Nicole wanted to defend herself, but she couldn't say no when she saw the righteous eyes of Jacob.
She had no choice but to accept it since Jacob didn't mind.
"Wait. I'll comb my hair."
Nicole was in a daze after a sleep. She folded the blanket and laid it on the sofa. Then she took out the
comb from her bag.
--
The major business of Jacob's new company was targeting young people, so generally there were
more active young people who had some ideas in the company.
These young people were ambitious, and full of dreams. The reason why they worked for Jacob was
that not only did the company well treated, but also gave the most potential to them.
It was not only because of Jacob's identity and background.
Therefore, it was easier for Jacob to get along with these people.
Most of the so-called upper class circles he showed up in the past were interested in the Gu family, not
Jacob himself.
So those people's attitude to Jacob were either trying to curry favor with the Gu family, or they were
afraid of making mistakes and say something wrong.
Such kind of communication was meaningless and tired of Jacob.
These young men from the new company were just the opposite of the ones Jacob had met in the past.
Although sometimes they would make him unhappy when they talked and did something, but they only
did that because of the details. Generally speaking, he preferred the young people from the new
company to do things in a special way.
And that was why he was willing to attend the dinner party of these managers.
As it was not a high-end party, Jacob still wore his suit without changing his clothes. He took Nicole's
hand and went out.
The Secretary had already prepared a car. When Jacob went downstairs, his car was already parked in
front of the company.
"President Gu, they are having fun a little bit crazy generally, I will tell them not to go too far later, you
will not be scared." The assistant got out of the car and said to Jacob with a smile.
Jacob smiled bitterly and said, "it's okay."
The car was parked in front of a restaurant. The Secretary opened the door for Jacob and explained,
"the first floor is a dining room, and the second floor is an entertainment room. They arranged to go
upstairs to play after dinner."
"Okay."
Nicole also got off the car. She was a little nervous and took the initiative to hold Jacob's hand.
The Secretary smiled at Nicole and asked nothing. He led the way for Jacob and Nicole.
"President Gu is here!"
When Jacob went into the room, all the people stood up and looked at him with joyful eyes.
"Please have a seat." Jacob waved his hand and led Nicole to sit on the seats which were available.
"Here, President Gu, this is the menu."
Most of the time they talked about the interesting things in the company, Jacob occasionally interjected
and made fun of them, while Nicole had nothing to say. But she felt it interesting and not boring.
They had a nice dinner. Both Nicole and Jacob had a good time, relaxed.
After dinner, the waiter came in, saying that the entertainment room upstairs was empty and they could
go upstairs now.
"President Gu, We guess that you don't come to this kind of places regularly." A man who had heard
about the background of Jacob asked with a smile, but his tone was more like making jokes.
Jacob smiled and said, "actually, I did go a lot."
"Well... Then we must have a good time today."
"Sure."
In the entertainment room, Nicole found this was really an entertainment room, where a variety of
playing cards, table balls and randomly placed.
They all rushed towards the table, trying to kill the first round. The rest of them stood with Jacob,
thinking about what to play.
"What about we play the game called 'Spin the Bottle'?" One of them picked up an empty bottle at the
wall and proposed.
"Okay!"
"You are so naughty, Luke! You always want to play this, why are you so lewd?"
The man called Luke retorted, "Hey, you are not able to play. I didn't force you."
"Huh, who is not able to, come on."
While they were having a good time, a calm man asked Jacob in a low voice, "President · Gu, this kind
of game is very naughty. You don't have to play it."
Jacob nodded and asked Nicole in a low voice, "do you want to play?"
Nicole blankly looked at the rolling bottle and then at Jacob, asking confusedly, "what is 'Spin the
Bottle'?"
As soon as she said this, the noisy crowd suddenly became quiet.
"Why don't you know 'Spin the Bottle'?"
"Wow, I finally see a real new bird!"
"No, no, No. you have to play the game no matter what you say today."
Nicole was more and more confused by their words.
