Mr. CEO Secretly Reads BL! - Chapter 23: CEO x CEO (1)
After meeting with Long Shan, he got a flower on his desk with a small poem written by Long Shan the following day. Today’s flower was a rose that Long Shan grew himself. Xiaojun opened the poem and read it in his heart.
Today I see a butterfly perched on a flower in my dream.
Its wings fluttered few times before peacefully settled down.
But when I want to catch it, it escaped, circling around my head before leaving.
I wonder if you can come to my dream again as a butterfly, Feng Xiaojun.
– Long Shan.
Xiaojun blushed when he read the poem, it was so cheesy, but it did make his heart flutter. He tried hard to hold his blooming smile, especially when Shi Qiang came inside his room to deliver his morning coffee,
“Sir, if you want to smile, just smile,” Shi Qiang said nonchalantly while putting the coffee on the table, “I can see you are trying so hard to look cool.”
“S—Secretary Shi, who deliver this flower and notes on my desk today?” Xiaojun asked.
“I did. I was on my way to the office, then suddenly, I saw two burly men standing in front of the office and remembered my face. They handed the flower and the notes to me, saying that their boss wants to deliver this to his moon rabbit, and they left,” Shi Qiang explained, and then she sighed, “Seriously, am I missing something here? How did you turn Long Shan, the Master of Long Family, into a gay? I mean, I haven’t seen him, but he has a daughter, right?”
“Yes…”
“I mean, maybe he is bisexual, but still…” Shi Qiang inspected her boss’ handsome face and commented, “Well, boss, you are indeed very handsome. I just… don’t expect that a mafia boss would like another gong-like man. I thought, he would at least like gentle beauties…”
Xiaojun shrugged, “Well… I don’t know either…”
“So, do you want to marry him or what?”
“WHAT?!” Xiaojun’s eyes almost popped out of its socket, “Secretary Shi, do you know how impossible that is?!”
“Impossible? I mean, I’m sure everything will be alright,” Shi Qiang shrugged, “Besides, sir, you are not planning to marry any woman, right?”
“No…”
“Then, in the future, you will settle down with a man. I’m just saying that you should not close the door to opportunity in front of you,” Shi Qiang saw how her boss seemed to be in deep thinking, and she felt proud of herself.
Because it would be a lifetime achievement for a fujoshi like her, to match two guys and see them get married, ‘I will make sure that Boss Feng marries the man he loves! This is the fujoshi oath!’
“Well, I’m not yet in love with anyone right now, so let’s just set that aside,” Xiaojun said.
“Yes, sir. After all, love cannot be forced. You might fall in love with Long Shan or maybe someone else in the future,” Shi Qiang said.
Xiaojun nodded. He wanted to ask about today’s schedule before he got a text message.
Ding!
Xiaojun unlocked his phone and saw a text message under the name ‘Zhu’er.’
Xiaojun smiled and read the message.
*Zhu’er – 08.20 a.m
Good morning, XiaoXiao. I am currently working on a movie set. It’s hectic these days, I have to carry the heavy camera everywhere when filming!
I hope you are doing well with your office job! Don’t get scolded by your boss!*
Xiaojun giggled when he got the text message, Zhu’er said that he was just a cameraman on the movie set, and it was a hard job. Somehow, Xiaojun felt guilty that he lied to Zhu’er because he said that he was just a regular office worker instead of the CEO of Feng Group, Feng Xiaojun.
But it could not be helped, right? Zhu’er would definitely turn his back when he knew that he faced Feng Xiaojun instead of XiaoXiao, his biggest fan.
Xiaojun texted back and then put his phone down, “Secretary Shi, what is today schedule?” he asked.
“We have a meeting with Jiang Group again, sir. But this is rather a private meeting, Jiang Jinxing said that he will personally come to meet you, and he said that he would not be late this time.”
Like a thunder that struck him in the morning, Xiaojun froze on the spot, “J—J—J—Jinxing?!”
“Yes, sir. He said that he cannot contact you at all no matter how much he tried, so Jiang Jinxing asked me to set out a schedule for you two,” Shi Qiang replied.
“…”
Xiaojun remembered how he heartbrokenly blocked Jinxing’s phone number, also blocked him of all social media account and online messaging because he was too embarrassed and heartbroken at the same time.
And now, he must see him again? Xiaojun gulped.
“S—Secretary Shi, do you think I will die painlessly if I drink a rat poison before the meeting?”

“Cut! That’s great acting, as expected from our film emperor, Sun Zhu!” Sun Zhu put down his prop sword and walked to his seat. He was currently filming a XianXia or eastern fantasy novel. That scene was when he, as the protagonist, got blackened.
He sat in his seat and opened his phone. There was a text from his XiaoXiao.
*XiaoXiao – 08.22
Uwaaa! Zhu’er fighting! >///w//< XiaoXiao will support you and your hard work! Don’t forget a hot patch after a tiring day. It will help to relieve your muscle ache! I am currently working, my boss is so scary!*
Sun Zhu chuckled when he read the text message. XiaoXiao said that he was just a regular office worker. That must have been hard.
Honestly, Sun Zhu felt guilty for lying about his real job, but XiaoXiao might back off if he knew that Zhu’er was actually Sun Zhu, the film emperor. Besides, if XiaoXiao knew how crazy his fans could be, it would be a mess.
‘Well, in two days, I will meet my cute XiaoXiao, hehe~.’
