My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!

Tang Xiao is here!

Tall and slender, with an air of icy detached arrogance.

Her patent-leather high heels and tailored women's suit exuded the aura of a domineering and powerful businesswoman without a doubt.

Even several beautiful secretaries like Xie Wanjun, despite their exquisite makeup, paled in comparison to the unadorned Tang Xiao.

The group, walking gracefully, had already become the center of attention.

Especially for many male employees, their eyes were practically popping out of their heads, no longer caring about their food.

What could be more pleasing to the eye than a bevy of top-notch beauties appearing before them?

What does "a feast for the eyes" mean?

This was probably it!

Tang Xiao always had a cold expression, and even when she greeted a few mid and senior-level staff in the restaurant, it was just with a slight lift of the corners of her mouth and a nod of her head.

On the contrary, the beautiful secretaries like Xie Wanjun behind her had the standard sweet smiles that never showed teeth, just as pleasing as flight attendants.

When it came to picking up a serving tray, Tang Xiao took matters into her own hands, grabbing a stainless-steel plate and utensils herself, and then queuing up to pick out the food she wanted.

The company was financially strong and had its own pollution-free farm, so the management staff never had special treatment; they either ate in the restaurant or took food back to their offices.

Busy with work, Tang Xiao usually ate in her office and rarely came to the restaurant throughout the year.

After selecting a few side dishes and a bowl of white rice, she didn't need to look for a seat, as there were plenty of people who voluntarily made room for her.

However…

Tang Xiao didn't sit down; instead, under the gaze of everyone, she walked straight to Wu Jie's side.

Sun Liang was dumbfounded. After giving Tang Xiao a stiff nod, he completely ignored Wu Jie, picked up his plate and left.

At the long table, only Wu Jie and Tang Xiao remained, sitting face to face.

Xie Wanjun and the other secretaries, of course, did not follow and sat down at a distance.

Barely seated, Xie Wanjun picked up her phone, quietly turned on the camera feature, but on the surface, she was laughing and chatting with the other secretaries, eating and talking.

Wu Jie had been enjoying his meal, quite happy to have drawn some envy, jealousy, and hatred in the restaurant, earning himself quite a few energy points.

But with Tang Xiao's arrival...

The mood suddenly changed.

There was only hatred, no envy or jealousy left.

Wu Jie even saw Sun Liang among those who received the system's joyful news.

He had thought Sun Liang was a workplace buddy, but it turned out this guy also harbored hatred.

Was it just because of sharing a meal with the widely-respected, unapproachable female CEO?

Was it such a big deal?

Sneaking a glance around, Wu Jie was speechless.

The looks many people gave him were as sharp as knives. If glares could kill, Wu Jie was sure he would have been pierced through by now, completely turned into a sieve.

Helpless!

Wu Jie couldn't just ask Tang Xiao not to sit there, could he?

The entire building belonged to the company, so Tang Xiao could sit wherever she wanted.

Of course, what left Wu Jie even more speechless was that once Tang Xiao sat down, she appeared truly hungry. She had no ladylike image at all.

She just ate quickly, picking up food and slurping soup as if the food on her plate were an enemy that had to be eliminated as soon as possible.

Wu Jie clenched his teeth and didn't dare to speak, deciding to pretend he didn't know anything and voraciously wolfed down his food.

In this bizarrely awkward atmosphere, Tang Xiao and Wu Jie ate in silence, as if competing to see who could eat faster.

Meanwhile, the other employees in the restaurant were each staring in disbelief.

"Goodness! What's gotten into President Tang today?"

"So weird! President Tang is actually sitting with him at the same table, not talking, just eating. What does this mean?"

"Could it be that President Tang is worried that Wu Jie was upset by a bump and came to check on him specifically?"

"Jealous! To be able to sit up close and have a meal with President Tang, that's the fortune of a lifetime!"

"If I had known that bumping into President Tang would bring this luck, I would have been the one to deliver the documents yesterday!"

"Look! President Tang is almost done eating!"

...

In the whispers of everyone around, Tang Xiao sat up straight, wiped her mouth, making sure not to waste even a single grain of rice, just like in the military.

```

Wu Jie noticed that Tang Xiao was looking at him with indifferent eyes and realized that he seemed to be sweating.

"Are you scared or just weak?" Tang Xiao asked him bluntly.

Wu Jie glanced up at Tang Xiao, "Weak? Didn't you test that out yesterday?"

Tang Xiao snorted softly and said with a laugh, "So, you're just nervous. But what are you nervous about? It's just having a meal at the same table, isn't it?"

"Just??"

Wu Jie glared at Tang Xiao and shook his head, "Do you have any idea what kind of impact your actions could have? It's very easy for people to get the wrong idea!"

Tang Xiao curled her lip, "Get the wrong idea about what? Do they think they can deduce our relationship? By doing this, I'm just testing the waters for now, to save us from any uncontrollable big fuss when we suddenly announce our relationship! What's up? Are you scared?"

"Scared? I don't even know how to write that word!" Wu Jie replied forcefully.

"Well done!" Tang Xiao said with a smile and stood up to take their plates, "Enjoy your meal, I'll be leaving first!"

Wu Jie raised his hand to watch Tang Xiao leave, but there were too many envious stares around him, making him feel like he had become a sinner for the ages.

After all, Tang Xiao hadn't really done anything outrageous.

If she had called him 'dear' or blown him a kiss, that certainly would have shocked people enough to give them a heart attack and bring even more envy, jealousy, and hate upon Wu Jie.

Unfortunately, she had not.

But what comes around goes around! It's not fair for Tang Xiao to join his table without invitation and not fair for Wu Jie to not ride on her coattails?

So, Wu Jie suddenly stood up and called out, "President Tang, take care! Thank you for your concern!"

Tang Xiao was already at the door of the cafeteria when she heard Wu Jie's words, stopped, turned her head and smiled faintly.

Boom!

It was like an invisible heavyweight bomb had exploded in the cafeteria.

The aloof and formidable President Tang, Tang Xiao, actually smiled! She smiled! She smiled!

This was indeed a rare sight, like blossoming of an iron tree!

Wu Jie, just a totally ordinary staff member among tens of thousands in the corporation, had made President Tang turn her head and smile.

What the hell was this?

The crowd was stunned, and Tang Xiao and her party walked away.

Suddenly, the cafeteria became noisy.

Especially the people from the marketing department, who came rushing over like they were on steroids, asking questions this way and that.

"Damn, Wu Jie! You're completely famous in the company now!"

"Yesterday, not many people knew about it, but after today's show... tsk tsk, buddy, you're going to be famous!"

"Jie, you're awesome! I've been at the company for nearly five years and it's the first time I've seen President Tang smile so sweetly!"

"Shit, I've been here for eight years and I've never even talked to the higher-ups. I'm so jealous of you!"

"Jie Bro! From today onwards, you're my real brother! When you get promoted and become the general manager or even CEO, don't forget to look out for your little bro here!"

"What did President Tang say to you? She didn't say she was going to promote you to deputy manager of the marketing department, did she?"

...

More and more people crowded around, not even bothering to eat, just eager to hear what Wu Jie and President Tang had talked about.

Bring it on!

The envy, jealousy, and hatred, oh!

Am I afraid of you?

Don't just envy and be jealous, throw in some more hate, dear!

...

Inside the elevator.

"President Tang, Mr. Wang from Tianyuan Wang Real Estate has been waiting for you for a long time, will you see him or not?"

Tang Xiao replied coldly, "The collaboration with their company has always been handled by the real estate division. What's he doing here without an appointment?"

Xie Wanjun said with a smile, "It must be some urgent matter, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited this long!"

"Then let's meet him!"

Ding-dong!

The elevator doors opened, and as soon as Tang Xiao and the other secretaries were gone, Xie Wanjun closed the elevator and made a phone call.

"President Tang has agreed to meet you, but her relationship with Wu Jie, the ordinary staff member who got hit yesterday, seems pretty average..."
