Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

Chapter 342 Professional Prop Boyfriend

```

After breakfast, Su Chen and Lin Ruoxue went their separate ways to the Belle Corporation as they did every day, each driving their own car.

Su Chen naturally headed straight for the Public Relations department, where he chatted with the ladies for a few minutes before having Ran Ting make him a cup of tea. He then pulled out the latest issue of "Men's Fashion" magazine and started his leisurely day.

Just as his eyes were sparkling with excitement while admiring the sexy images of the models, his cellphone suddenly rang.

"Who is it? Interrupting my admiration of beautiful women."

Muttering to himself, Su Chen took out his phone. Upon seeing the number, he immediately retracted his complaint.

Because the caller was Xia Qiuru. Although it seemed they had cleared the air during their last meeting at the café, in reality, there was still some unease between them. Afterwards, the interactions between them were limited to enthusiastic greetings.

Moreover, he knew that recently Xia Qiuru had been upset because her parents were pressuring her to go on blind dates. If it were anything else, Su Chen could offer some advice, but in this matter, it would be rather awkward for him to intervene, and he might be accused of being self-serving.

Although he was very curious as to why Xia Qiuru would call him so early in the morning, he answered the phone immediately.

"Su Chen, can you come to my office?" came Xia Qiuru's somewhat hesitant voice over the phone.

"Okay."

Without asking what it was about, Su Chen immediately agreed. He always felt guilt when it came to Xia Qiuru.

After hanging up, Su Chen went directly to Xia Qiuru's office and knocked gently on the door.

"Come in."

A slightly hoarse voice answered from inside, and Su Chen then pushed the door open and entered.

"Qiuru, what's the matter?"

Su Chen stopped about a meter away from Xia Qiuru's desk and asked with a smile.

"Please, take a seat first."

Xia Qiuru gestured to a guest chair in front of her and spoke, her heart filled with an inexplicable emotion.

It seemed their relationship had really grown distant. Although he still called her Qiuru, which sounded very close, his tone and gestures seemed to deliberately maintain a distance.

This was apparent from the moment he knocked on the door. There was a time when he would simply burst into her office without knocking, his demeanor anything but respectful.

"Qiuru, you don't look well, you should really take care of yourself."

Indeed, Xia Qiuru's face was as delicate and beautiful as ever, her figure still heart-stirring to any man, but the weariness and exhaustion on her face, and her languished spirit, were all too evident.

Seeing Xia Qiuru like this, Su Chen felt very distressed. To say he had no feelings for Xia Qiuru was impossible.

"Don't worry, I know."

"Is there a need to be so formal between us?"

Su Chen showed a familiar smile, and for a moment, it felt like a return to old times.

"Hmm, I'll buy you a big meal in a few days to thank you specially!"

"Then I'll look forward to it."

Su Chen stood up and said with a smile:

"If there's nothing else, I'll head out first."

"Okay!"

......

As lunchtime came around, Su Chen headed directly to the parking lot of Belle Building and got into Xia Qiuru's car.

Xia Qiuru's car was a Ford, worth about two to three hundred thousand, which seemed very fitting for a white-collar worker like her.

"Where to?"

Su Chen asked casually after getting in the car.

"He said Western World."

"Huh, looks like the guy you're meeting up with is pretty wealthy, with decent taste too!"

Su Chen said with a laugh, aware that Western World was a high-end Western-style restaurant with naturally high prices.

"What's that got to do with me?"

Xia Qiuru said in a cool tone.

Su Chen just couldn't hold his tongue. Xia Qiuru was already asking him to be a prop boyfriend; wasn't her intent clear enough?

This showed she merely wanted to brush the other party off with no actual desire to develop anything further.

After driving for about twenty minutes, Xia Qiuru parked in front of a restaurant filled with Western charm.

The two quickly arrived at the entrance where, after reporting her name, the waiter immediately led them inside.

Western World's decor was naturally in a standard European style, making the whole restaurant feel fresh and bright.

The arrangement of tables and chairs was skillfully tiered, creating a sense of depth and layering.

At the back of the restaurant there was a slightly raised stage about forty to fifty square meters large, where various artists were performing their talents, such as playing the piano, the violin, and of course, singing.

When the waiter led Xia Qiuru to one of the tables, the man who was sitting there suddenly had a fiery light spring up in his eyes!
