He looked at himself, his expression indifferent, his smile gentle, "Good morning, Yueyue."
Bian Yue’s hair was a ss from sleep, her complexion rosy, her eyes surprised. She whispered in astonishnt, "Oh, I overslept."
She was adorably irresistible.
The smile in Shen Jinci’s eyes deepened and his voice softened unconsciously, "Do you have any plans today?"
"Honey has just signed two new artists, and I need to go hold a eting for them," Bian Yue paused, sitting up straight. "Do you know why I was able to sign these two artists?"
Shen Jinci asked her why.
Bian Yue said it was all thanks to Mr. Shen’s reputation, as there were so many people wanting to curry favor with him that they ended up coming to her.
"That’s good."
Bian Yue was stunned, "That’s good?"
"It ans my reputation is helpful for Miss Bian’s career too. It’s my honor.
Bian Yue felt genuinely ashad to hear Shen Jinci speak such words.
Blinking, she said earnestly, "But I won’t use your reputation for ill, at most... just occasionally ride on your coattails."
This had little to do with whether Bian Yue wanted it. She was already Mrs. Shen, and whether or not she wanted to use this title, people would seek her out because of it.
All Bian Yue could do was make sure not to do anything that would harm Shen Jinci’s reputation.
"Even if you did do sothing bad, it’s okay; it would just be a bit of trouble," Shen Jinci said. "But I don’t mind trouble when it cos to Mrs. Shen’s affairs.’"
Bian Yue couldn’t help but laugh, "Would you be this nice to every Mrs. Shen?"
"No, Bian Yue, it’s only for you that I am this nice," Shen Jinci stated earnestly, his voice grave.
Bian Yue’s heartbeat quickened. She blinked and asked softly, "Shen Jinci, are... are you really willing to marry ?"
"Very willing."
Perhaps it was the distance between them. Many things that were hard to say face-to-face suddenly beca easier to voice.
Bian Yue tightened her grip on the phone, "Then... you do care about a bit, right?"
A brief silence made Bian Yue’s heart hang in suspense.
She saw Shen Jinci’s serious expression, very solemn: "I care about you very, very much."
He paused, then added softly, "Yueyue, I never considered anyone else to be Mrs. Shen except you."
Bian Yue felt a deeper ache in her heart.
She said, "Shen Jinci, then you must live a long and healthy life."
He asked why.
Bian Yue said, "Because there aren’t many people in this world who care about ."
Shen Jinci thought it was ti to tell Bian Yue the truth.
"Bian Yue, actually my body..."
"I know," Bian Yue cut him off, her tone serious, "I know your health isn’t good, Shen Jinci, don’t worry, I will stay with you and take good care of you."
Shen Jinci thought that maybe it was ti to burst the bubble of this convenient lie.
But now, with the two of them so far apart, it was not the right ti.
He thought he wasn’t really a good person. Seeing Bian Yue so anxious and uneasy, he felt a perverse satisfaction, thinking that her anxiousness might an she cared about him.
So his expression grew even more tender, looking at Bian Yue, he diverted the topic, "You still haven’t told , what gift would you like?"
Bian Yue, caught off guard, gathered her thoughts, then said earnestly, "Shen Jinci, I don’t want anything, just co back soon."
The latter part, even Bian Yue herself didn’t fully understand the sentint behind her words.
After speaking, she herself was also stunned.
She noticed on the phone screen, Shen Jinci’s eyes looked even deeper and gentler, which caused her to blush and say softly, "It’s just... just that the Shen Family’s house feels sowhat big, and it’s quite desolate with just around."
"I understand." Shen Jinci said, "From now on, I will try not to travel far."
That was not what Bian Yue ant, but before she could refuse, a thought had already taken hold in her mind—
If she could see soone who cared about her waiting for her return ho every day, that would indeed be a happy thing.
So Bian Yue said: "Then... you should rest soon."
Shen Jinci agreed and reminded Bian Yue to also take care of her health while working, and to balance work with rest.
Bian Yue did not know how others would perceive such trivial concerns. A rebellious girl might find it cloying, but for many years, what Bian Yue lacked the most was exactly this.
Direct, simple concern for her.
So Bian Yue cherished it greatly and earnestly promised.
After Shen Jinci ended the call, Kang Yu ca in with a computer.
"Mr. Shen, there’s another docunt here that needs your review now."
Shen Jinci took the computer and looked at the densely packed clauses and said mildly, "These additional items all need to be renegotiated."
"I understand, Mr. Shen." Kang Yu closed the computer. "I will handle it right now."
After speaking, he was about to leave.
Shen Jinci stopped him, "Wait."
"Mr. Shen, is there anything else?"
Shen Jinci pondered for a mont, then said quietly, "Let’s have everyone work hard tonight, finish processing all the things overnight, and you contact Lawrence for , I will et him tonight."
Kang Yu was surprised, "Why the sudden rush?"
The night lights cast a flowing glow, falling on the man’s indifferent face, a hint of a smile seed to spread in his eyes, he lowered his gaze, hiding the tender emotions in his eyes, yet still spoke calmly, "Yes, in a hurry."
As soon as Bian Yue entered Honey, Anny ca up to greet her.
Seeing her filled with eager gossip, Bian Yue couldn’t help but smile, "Can we talk about it in the office?"
Anny coughed lightly, regaining her professional woman’s deanor, and said, "It’s just too explosive, I just heard about it, so I couldn’t control my expression!"
Bian Yue raised her eyebrows.
The two of them entered the elevator one after the other.
Bian Yue’s office was only separated by a wall from Wen Jiao’s resting room, seeing the resting room’s door tightly locked, Bian Yue curiously asked, "Is Wen Jiao sleeping inside?"
"No! It’s ng Qi taking refuge in there!"
"Taking refuge?" Bian Yue muttered to herself.
The two walked into Bian Yue’s office, Anny, worried about being even a second late, hurriedly closed the door.
"Guess what happened at Honey last night!"
"Isn’t it just Wen Jiao..." Bian Yue carefully chose her words, "Wen Jiao planning to have a small romance."
"That was the plan, but! She had just pushed ng Qi down, when a bunch of people ca in and took her away."
Bian Yue stood up shocked, "Such a big incident, why didn’t you tell sooner! Where is Wen Jiao now?"
"Don’t worry, President Wen told , she’s already back ho, it’s nothing serious." Anny curiously looked at Bian Yue and gossiped, "Does Miss Wen have a fiancé? Did her fiancé co to catch her cheating?"
"I rember she doesn’t have a fiancé."
"That’s odd then, why was she taken away just like that?"
Bian Yue sighed and held her forehead, saying, "I’ll contact Wen Jiao and ask, you go let ng Qi out."
