~ BOSS: Where can you hide, hmm? ~
Hearing the door behind him open, Fu Wang, who had been lost in his thoughts as he gazed at the sun that was slowly rising in the distant sky turned his head and smiled at Shu Yu who was standing in the room with a foolish look on her face: Youre up, I have sothing to give you.
Ah? Shu Yu swallowed the yawn she was in the middle of and her sleepy eyes widened a little as she processed his words. It was early in the morning and BOSS was standing outside her room saying that he had sothing to give her? He would usually be nowhere to be found at this ti of day, or could it be that she had yet to wake up?
Soone that had just woken up would usually be a little slow so Shu Yus mind was still focused on the fact that BOSS wanted to give her a gift. Looking down, she realised that BOSS had already put an exquisite and unique bangle on her right hand. This bangle was clearly the gift he had ntioned.
The bangle seed to be made of jade but it also didnt seem like it. There wasnt much decoration except for a brilliant golden red that flowed inside the smooth bangle, bringing to mind the setting sun and its rays. It was very beautiful. It didnt feel cold when worn on the hand but felt warm instead. Shu Yu reached out to touch it, feeling a little happy. She snapped out of her thoughts after a while and looked at Fu Wang with a big smile as she said: Thank you.
This was the first ti that Fu Wang had so carefully said that he wanted to give her sothing. Ah, although he had given her gifts before, the feeling was different. But why would he give her sothing so suddenly?
For the past few days, she had seen Fu Wang making sothing very attentively. It had been a semi-finished product before so she couldnt make out what it was but as she looked at that familiar colour, she realised that this was it. It had previously been separate parts that had been linked together but it now looked like a whole piece. Everything joined together seamlessly as if this bangle had been made from a single piece of jade and there werent any seams on it.
If she didnt know for a fact that BOSS would never give her such a simple thing, she wouldve thought that it was just a pretty bangle.
Fu Wang watched as Shu Yu turned the bangle on her hand as if she were looking for sothing, curiosity burning in her eyes. The smile on his lips gained a trace of intrigue before it regained its warmth and tenderness. He held her hand gently and said: Are you looking to see if the bangle has any other innovative uses? You wont find it like this, why dont I demonstrate it for you?
Ok. Shu Yu was really looking forward to it and she obediently stretched out her hand.
She soon regretted it. Because BOSS Fu Wang held the bangle between his fingers and gave it a twist. When it reached a certain point, the bangle suddenly beca two, connected by a thin chain in the middle.
This shape, why, why does it look so much like a police handcuff? Although the bangle was beautiful and the chain was also beautiful, this was still a handcuff! Shu Yu turned to look at Fu Wang suspiciously, only to see him put the other bangle on his own left wrist without any hesitation.
So BOSS, whats the reason behind making this handcuff? No no no, she must trust that BOSS wasnt soone with nothing better to do. He had spent a lot of effort to make this bangle and it must have so other function. In order not to hurt his feelings, Shu Yu said: The way the bangle is worn looks quite familiar haha, ha, erm, does this bangle have any other functions?
Fu Wang shook the bangle on his wrist pensively and said unsmilingly: Just this function is great. I was inspired by the thing called handcuffs that you previously ntioned, that were used to catch bad guys in your world.
The inspiration really ca from handcuffs! So tell , what exactly is the point of this? Shu Yu stared at this otherworldly version of Handcuffs that linked her right hand to his left.
So ti passed and she tried to make herself appear more sincere as she said: I like it very much, Ill cherish it.
Im glad that you like it. Fu Wang smiled back at her, not making any move.
More ti passed. Shu Yu shook her wrist and the beautiful chain between the two bangles gave out a light clink. Can you open this?
Her keep a distance from the charming BOSS operation was still ongoing and she was nervous to be so close to him. As she asked this, she tried taking it off but the bangle that Fu Wang had just put on her with ease now seed to have beco smaller and couldnt be taken off.
Fu Wang watched her try a few tis before explaining, This cant be removed once two people put it on. Besides, the material I used is very rare and unusually strong. Im afraid that even you cant unlock it. In the past few days, his greatest achievent was creating this material that was strong enough to withstand Shu Yus strength.
Shu Yus breath caught in her throat. So BOSS, this bangle that you made and gave to , what do you an by it? In that mont, a ssy barrage of thoughts like,
Little Black House Play[1]
Cant be together in this life, so lets be buried together
No one will co to your rescue no matter how loud you scream
The capital sends a congratulatory ssage
No, I cant be consud by those thoughts.

She didnt speak and only listened on as Fu Wang explained in an unhurried tone: However, it can be taken off with the key.
Shu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. Indeed, BOSS simply felt like teasing her. So she asked: Wheres the key? But she was still too naive and had felt hopeful too soon.
The key? When Fu Wang laughed, it was as if the clouds had scattered and the moon had appeared, it was an immortal-like beauty, I suddenly rembered that I havent had ti to make the key yet.
This is really bad. Fu Wang shook his head and sighed as he covered his forehead in distress.
Really bad? If youre really distressed can you restrain that smile in your eyes a little bit? Shu Yus face turned red from holding back these words. Upset, she pursed her lips and shot Fu Wang a glare.
Fu Wang looked at her with a smile, as if he were watching an immature child throwing a tantrum. For so reason, Shu Yu sensed a ssage of Ill see how long you can hold back in his eyes.
Im at fault, to have actually forgotten sothing as important as this. Ill finish making the key very quickly. Shu Yu, dont be mad, en? His en was long drawn out, soft and deep. Shu Yu felt that she was like a ball filled with air, slowly deflating once she heard that voice, her anger unknowingly dissipating away.
Fu Wang noticed the change in her mood. Unsurprised, he touched her cheek with the back of his hand, then casually withdrew it before saying leisurely: However, it takes ti to make the key. Till then, Shu Yu will have to put up with being locked to .
Or has Shu Yu started to hate and doesnt want to stay by my side for even a montthen again, I feel like Shu Yu doesnt seem to want to see recently. Is it because of sothing I did? Fu Wang had the sa smile as before, but it was also different. That smile was set off by the sadness in his eyes, making him look especially lonely and sad, as if he had been hurt by her avoiding him.
Shu Yu had an inexplicable feeling of guilt and she quickly reassured him: No, Ive just been a little busy recently. Oh, now she just sounds like one of those cheating n in the modern tis when they were faced with questions from their wife. Looking at Fu Wangs gentle gaze that hid his loneliness, Shu Yu impulsively blurted: I dont detest staying with you, take your ti with the key. Im fine as long as it doesnt delay you in any way.
Thank you for being understanding. When Fu Wang said this with a smile, Shu Yu had the feeling that she had been tricked by his charms into doing sothing stupid.
Hahahha, it must be her misconception, she couldnt have been that dumb.
Oh right, Shu Yu just woke up and hasnt washed up yet right, we can go together. Fu Wang walked on the right, Shu Yu walked on the left, Fu Wang was in front and Shu Yu followed a step behind.
Fu Wang paused and waited for Shu Yu to catch up before continuing again, walking side by side with her.
Everything was fine when they were rinsing their mouths but when it ca to washing their faces, Shu Yu was unable to wash with just her left hand so she could only tug Fu Wangs left hand along as she used her right hand. Fu Wang had to cooperate with her so he leaned his whole person towards her. They were very close, so much so that Shu Yu could hear his breathing right by her ear. However, not only could she not take a step back, she couldnt ask Fu Wang to take a step back either, the two of them were tied together after all.
Noticing her predicant, Fu Wang grabbed the towel with his right hand, Its inconvenient with just your left hand, let do it for you. After all, it was my negligence that caused all of this.
Shu Yu: ok, thank you.
Damn it! Seeing BOSS sincere and soft gaze, she couldnt refuse at all! It was exactly because she knew herself well and was afraid that she wouldnt be able to refuse BOSS, resulting in terrible things happening, that she decided to put distance between them and to slowly drift apart from him. Look at things now! Theres nowhere to hide!
Fu Wang knew that she was bewildered because the emotions in her eyes were clearly displayed in front of him. She couldnt even hide her feelings. With a smile, Fu Wang wiped her face with a cloth towel. He slowly wiped her forehead and between her brows, paused near her eyes before reluctantly sliding past the corners of her eyes to wipe her nose, finally lingering around her lips.
Fu Wang looked upright and serious, no different from when he was working at his desk but his movents were gentle and gave her a feeling of being cherished. Shu Yu was in a daze when she noticed a touch of tender affection from his slow and gentle movents and quickly suppressed this dangerous thought.
She had never even washed her own face so gently before. When washing it herself, she would usually just rub it in all four directions as if she were kneading a lump of dough. She did it very roughly, so much so that it was a waste of the beautiful face she currently had.
Fu Wang wasnt done even after hed been washing for quite so ti. He was very ticulous and didnt miss any spot, his OCD attitude of cannot rub too lightly or too hard made Shu Yu feel very stressed. She had given him a pass for touching her face as he washed it but did he have to get closer and closer to her?
Shu Yus heartbeat sped up as she faced his handso smiling face. She could only grab the cloth towel in his hand and look into his smiling eyes that showed he was well clear on what he was doing as she awkwardly said: Erm, do you want to help with washing your face?
Isnt it inconvenient for you to use your left hand? Of course, if thats what you want, I do not mind.
Shu Yu: Im dumbfounded. But seriously, can you stop smiling bro? Youre making nervous.
Fu Wang: It must be inconvenient to comb your hair also, why dont I help you with that too? Ever since you learned to comb it yourself, other than the occasional tis, Ive rarely helped you comb your hair and I really do miss that.
Shu Yu let Fu Wang stand behind her as he slowly fiddled around with her hair while she sat on the chair and stared into space with her hand on her chin.
Since when did BOSS who always had a calm smile that betrayed nothing, when in front of her, would smile sogenuinely that it could be seen in his eyes?
He didnt know that every ti he smiled like that, she was about to have a heart attack.
