Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming

Standing in the luxurious and spacious living room, Du Xiaoxian was so nervous that she didn't know where to place her hands and feet. She lowered her head and looked down at her tattered cloth shoes. Although the shoes were old with a few small holes on the surface, they were clean and even the blue cloth was washed to the point of looking white.Xiao Bonian looked at her up and down. She wasn't tall, and was extremely thin. She stood there like a junior middle school student. Her hair was fine and smooth but slightly yellowish, and she seemed to be malnourished. She was pretty and clean, and had the look of an honest girl."How old are you?""Eighteen." The little girl was very nervous and her voice was timid.Xiao Bonian smiled gently and said, "I'm the housekeeper here. Just call me Uncle Xiao. Don't be nervous. The Master and Ladyship are always nice to servants. The young lady is easy to get along with. But the young master h

Where she stood was the open space down the front entry steps of the house. People were used to calling it the front yard, which was paved with larger square tiles, including some colored patterned ones. In the middle there was a fountain, where stood a statue of a Greek bather, who held a water bottle at an angle with the water pouring down from the bottle mouth. Du Xiaoxian was startled at the sight of the statue and then she blushed immediately. She hadn’t expected that a statue of a semi-naked woman was erected here for people to see. She was too embarrassed to look at it, so she simply lowered her head.Tall and green trees were planted all around with some flowers and plants dotted among them. The branches and leaves brought out the best in each other.Ah Ling said, "Uncle Xiao must have told you. Your job is to clean the yard.""Yes, he did." Du Xiaoxian stood upright with her hands hanging down. Her eyes swept over the fallen leaves on

Gu Nianbin did not expect to frighten her like that. He was first shocked and then found it funny. He was a silent and reserved man, so it was natural for servants to feel awe to him. However, she was the first one who ran away in fear. Gu Nianbin rubbed his chin and thought to himself, “Am I really that scary?”When he went downstairs, Fang Yaru was eating breakfast alone. Hearing footsteps on the stairs, she looked up at her son and said, “Old Xiao said you got up early. Why are you so late?”Gu Nianbin smiled, but asked, "Where are Dad and Shanshan?"“Shanshan went out early in the morning. The girl has hardly stayed home since she came back. Your dad is in the garden now,” Fang Yaru said to her son with a catering smile. "Nianbin, do you still remember what I told you yesterday?"Probably because of the sunny day, Gu Nianbin was in a good mood to tease his mother. He frowned and pretended to be puzzled. "What was it?"

The Gu family was among the richest ones in City G and had engaged in trade for generations. They had an ancestral three-yard house outside the city. Born into such a rich and large family, younger Gus, in large numbers, had led an extravagant and idle life. When it came to Gu Nianbin’s grandfather, the Gu family was just an empty shell. And his granduncle, who was then obsessed with an opera performer, stayed in the theater all day and disregarded business deals. Afterwards, he even voluntarily gave up his right of inheritance.His grandfather struggled to support the family business and passed on it to his father. At that time, it happened to be the peak period of domestic investment. Thanks to the good foundation, the Gu’s company grasped the opportunity and rose gradually. At one time, it even matched the Jiang’s company—the leader in City G.However, the Gu family was different from the Jiang family which had definite successor with only one heir for t

After dinner, Gu Nianbin felt it was too stuffy in the house, so he went for a walk in the front yard. After walking down the steps, he saw the little girl, who happened to straighten up. The girl looked up and was shocked at the sight of Gu Nianbin. Dragging the broom, she ran away again. Gu Nianbin raised his hand and called out, "Hey!" However, the little girl ran as fast as a bunny, probably not hearing him. Gu Nianbin dropped his hand, not knowing why he wanted to stop her.It was in early autumn. Although it was past 7 pm, but instead of getting dark, the sky was reddish, like the color of the sunset's afterglow. He lit a cigarette and looked quietly at the tall plane tree. It seemed as if a young girl was standing under the tree with her head tilted. Then she smiled at him and said, "Brother Bin…"At that time, she was just a 16-year-old girl who started to yearn for love. One day, she came to tell him her little secret. "Brother Bin, I have a crush
