He Ye had just called Shen Yanchen to say that Gu Qimiao was on a date with Lu Qianwen, and Shen Yanchen arrived at the airport not long after.
As he drove over to pick him up, Shen Yanchen’s face didn’t look particularly good. He seed a bit tired and a bit angry, probably upset about his little sister-in-law going on a date.
The car started, and he loosened his tie, adjusted his position, and sat sowhat lazily. When he spoke, it was no longer about business but about his little sister-in-law.
"What has she been up to these days?"
While turning the car, He Ye responded, "She’s been pretty good. She goes to work and cos ho on ti every day, stays in your office alone, and today was the only ti Lu Qianwen ca to see her. They had lunch together, and she ca back with a cake. Did you rush back today because it’s her birthday?"
Shen Yanchen didn’t respond and just asked, "No moves?"
"Nope, we haven’t seen a trace of that woman. She seems to be preparing for so show recently, probably too busy to cause trouble."
"Oh, and Dust Brother!" He Ye said suddenly, "I found out soone else has been following your little sister-in-law."
This caught Shen Yanchen’s attention, and he asked, "Who?"
"At first, I thought it was a bad guy, but then I found out it seems to be soone from my field. I asked around and it seems like they’re soone under Lu Qianwen."
Shen Yanchen frowned. How could another man be responsible for protecting his woman?
What exactly is this Lu Qianwen’s plan? As for his past, there’s no way to investigate it; everything is cleaned up thoroughly. Who exactly is this Yinyin?
Soon the car arrived at the company, and Shen Yanchen skipped lunch, heading straight to his office.
He originally wanted to ask who she had been out with but found this girl asleep on his office desk.
His tense expression imdiately softened. Had she missed him in his absence these days so much that she’d co to his place to sleep?
The weather was hot, and his office had an independent air conditioner which she had not turned on, so her face was flushed, and the hair at her temples stuck to her face.
Shen Yanchen’s footsteps naturally beca lighter. He picked up the remote control on the desk and turned on the indoor air conditioning. After a "beep," only the slight sound of the air conditioner could be heard in the room.
He wanted to carry her to the resting room inside but was afraid of waking her up, so he went inside to get a thin blanket to cover her, worrying she might get cold with the air conditioning on.
Then he himself lay down on the sofa. The room was peaceful, and the sunshine outside was just right.
Ever since he knew she loved him, his world had beco bright and sunny.
Before eting her, his world had been filled only with darkness. But her arrival was like the sun, lting his heart.
In this lifeti, how could he ever be apart from Gu Qimiao?
He exhaled deeply, relaxed his body, and closed his eyes. The air was filled with her scent, like his sleeping pill, drifting him into a peaceful sleep.
Ti quietly passed, and Gu Qimiao pressed her arm into numbness. Feeling slightly uncomfortable, she slowly opened her eyes. As she sat up, sothing fell, and she quickly reached to grab it, wondering where she was. This wasn’t Shen Yanchen’s office, was it? Who had co in? Could it be the secretary who had covered her with a small blanket?
Stretching lazily, she remarked about the attentiveness of the staff here. She glanced at the LED clock on the desk corner; it was already 2:30 PM. She had overslept.
Wrapping the thin blanket around her arms, she was actually planning to go to her studio. As she stood up, she saw soone lying on the sofa.
When did he co back?!
Almost in disbelief, she moved closer to confirm that it was indeed him. Was she dreaming because she missed him too much?
Rubbing her eyes, he was still there.
Her eyes curved into a slight smile as she gently placed the blanket on him. However, he slowly opened his eyes. Even though he had just woken up, his gaze was sharp.
Gu Qimiao quickly stood up straight: "... You can continue sleeping. I’ll go inside to draw."
Shen Yanchen sat up from the sofa and instructed her, "Get a glass of water first."
"Oh." Gu Qimiao imdiately turned around to find his cup, then obediently fetched a glass of water and handed it to him.
Shen Yanchen drank more than half of the glass in one gulp and asked her indifferently, "How have you been these days?"
Gu Qimiao hesitated, embarrassed as she mostly had been slacking off: "... Just drawing."
Shen Yanchen, using the tone of interrogating a subordinate who had made a mistake, asked with the authority of a husband questioning his wife, "I heard from my subordinate that you went out with a man today?"
Gu Qimiao: "...!" How did he know? The news spread so fast! When she thought it was safe at the company gate due to the crowd, she had forgotten that the crowd’s chatter was also quick.
