"Shi Shuning, listen to my explanation!"
Shi Shuning glanced at her and said sarcastically, "Oh, I'm like a little puppy, clingy as hell, and will just whine."
Ye Jinng imdiately shook her head, "I'm the little puppy, I'm too clingy. If I'm away from Shi Shuning for a bit, I'll start whining!"
"Hmph, I'm stuck to you every day, so clingy that it's annoying..."
Ye Jinng felt guilty, "No, no, not at all annoying, I love you clinging to !"
Seeing that Shi Shuning wanted to say more, Ye Jinng imdiately lowered her head, "I was wrong!"
Alas, why did I have to be so impulsive and run my mouth! Now I'm caught red-handed, how do I appease him!
Xu Wanwan sat there covering her mouth, giggling, and accidentally let out a louder laugh.
Ye Jinng glanced back at her, her eyes seeming to say, "Why didn't you warn earlier! How dare you laugh!"
Xu Wanwan laughed even louder.
Shi Shuning turned Ye Jinng's head back, "You little vixen, I'll listen to your explanation about that later. For now, explain the post on your friend's circle!"
Ye Jinng was stunned, recalling that when Xiao Yuanning sat next to her earlier, she had sneakily taken a photo of the two of them together and posted it on her friend's circle.
She imdiately took out her phone to explain to Shi Shuning, "Shi Shuning, we ran into Justin earlier, so I secretly took a photo of us together. It's nothing, really, you can ask Wanwan if you don't believe ."
She opened her friend's circle, found that post, and handed her phone to Shi Shuning.
The post was actually very simple, just a photo and the words, "Today's surprise is sitting with Justin."
Shi Shuning had already seen this post, but when he noticed there were two small profile icons below it, indicating a visibility setting, he paused.
He instinctively tapped on it to see that besides himself, only Ye's elders and Xu Wanwan were listed.
Ye Jinng tiptoed over to look at the phone screen and explained, "Oh, that's the group I set, only visible to family."
Shi Shuning's hand paused, 'family' - had Ye Jinng already included him in that group?
His previously disgruntled mood instantly dissipated, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Shi Shuning, you're not angry anymore?"
Shi Shuning imdiately reverted to a cold, indifferent expression, "Just a coincidence of being in the sa fra as an idol, I wouldn't get angry over that. But as for the bad things you said about earlier, I'll listen to your explanation later."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jinng tugged at the hem of his clothes and shook it, beginning to act coy, "I know I was wrong, I'll never talk nonsense again. Forgive , okay, brother?"
Shi Shuning was instantly disard, taking a few deep breaths, "I'll forgive you for now, but if there's a next ti, don't bla for punishing you."
Ye Jinng thought of those CEO novels she had read, where the tyrannical CEO punishes the female lead in certain ways.
Her face imdiately flushed red as she blurted out, "Does Shi Shuning want to punish that way?"
Shi Shuning realized what she ant, his face burning as if he was about to boil over, and imdiately covered her mouth.
"What dirty thoughts is this little vixen having, how shaless!"
Ye Jinng's mouth was covered as she made a confused "Mmm?" sound, as if asking, "Isn't that it?"
Shi Shuning looked into her bewildered large eyes, unable to resist gently patting her little bottom, "If you misbehave again, I'll punish you by making you write 10,000 lines of sweet nothings about ! You can't eat until you finish, understood?"
Ye Jinng nodded sadly.
Only then did Shi Shuning remove his hand covering her mouth.
Xu Wanwan felt nauseous from watching all this, forcefully exposed to their lovey-dovey antics. Ai, when is Azheng coming, she didn't want to be tortured alone!

Previously, X International had issued a series of project bids, and the happiest yet most worried person was none other than Xiao Wenyao.
The happy part was that out of the 205 bids Xiao Clan submitted, they won 200 of them.
The worrying part was that out of the 205 bids Xiao Clan submitted, they won 200 of them...
His original thinking was to bid on as many as possible to increase their chances, but he really didn't expect to win so many - it was a huge blunder.
To complete all these projects within the stipulated ti fra was beyond Xiao Clan's current manpower, resources, and financial capabilities. Yet they couldn't abandon the bids either. This was truly the biggest predicant Xiao Wenyao had faced in his career.
To handle all these projects, Xiao Clan began aggressively hiring employees with no restrictions on education or experience levels. As long as people applied, they were hired without interviews to work at the factories.
So office employees, especially the younger and lower-performing ones, were also reassigned to the factories.
Xiao Clan's employees were utterly miserable - they were college and graduate school educated elites who had beco factory assembly line workers overnight. Who could accept that?
So of the reassigned employees imdiately resigned, while others wanted to observe the situation, thinking that since they had partnered with X International, perhaps they would flourish eventually.
Watching the chaos unfold in his company, Xiao Wenyao's hair turned white overnight, unsure of how to proceed.
anwhile, Xiao Yongze was enjoying a candlelit dinner with his wife and children.
"Husband, I saw little Qi's daughter today. She has such big, beautiful eyes!"
Xiao Yongze was peeling shrimp for Song Jiaxi as he smiled, "Yeah, she's quite a beauty with those sparkling eyes that remind of the first ti I saw you."
"Really?"
"Yes, the first ti I saw you, you were around seventeen or eighteen. It was at the school's New Year's dance. While other students were busy socializing, you were alone in the buffet area, sneakily eating little cakes one by one from a small plate."
"You even got startled when I approached you back then, those big eyes of yours just staring at in shock."
Xiao Yongze reminisced about that ti, his heart filled with sweetness. It was then that those eyes had bewitched his soul, and from that mont on, he saw no one else.
Song Jiaxi also recalled those old tis, her face slightly flushed, "Well, it's because you walked without making any noise and suddenly appeared in front of . How could I not be scared!"
Xiao Yongze smiled indulgently, "Okay, okay, it was all my fault."
Then he took a plate full of peeled shrimp at and placed it in front of Song Jiaxi, "Here, I peeled them all for you. Eat up."
Song Jiaxi giggled, "Thank you, husband!"
Having long grown accustod to the constant sweet interactions between the two, Xiao Yuanning lowered his head and wolfed down his food, wishing to flee this sickeningly saccharine place as soon as possible.
Was it easy for him? Having grown up in such an environnt from a young age, no one understood better than him the saying, "parents in true love, child an accident."
