After three years of marriage, Pei Muyes greatest skill was stabbing Lin Xiyin in the heart.
Despite her in-laws dislike and her mentors disappointment, Lin Xiyin still wanted to warm her hus...
Chapter 204 Good Things Are Coming Soon?
Qu Jianhang put his arms around his lean waist.
Yan Chengyu used to work out regularly in previous years, and even now, despite his busy schedule, he still runs or swims whenever he has a spare moment.
She's almost fifty years old, but she's still in great shape.
Even after the kiss ended, Yan Chengyu was still reluctant to let her go: "I'm really glad you came."
Qu Jianhang: ...
I'm speechless.
She thought Yan Chengyu would be angry if she came without informing him.
To my surprise, he became happy.
"I called you this morning, and you said your cold was better." Yan Chengyu hugged her tightly, still not letting go. "Should we go to the hospital for another checkup?"
"What are you investigating?" Qu Jianhang asked lazily. "I'm as strong as an ox."
"Awesome?" Yan Chengyu almost laughed. "Who describes themselves like that?"
"That's right." Qu Jianhang pushed him away: "What time is it? Aren't you busy?"
"I don't have a meeting until 3 o'clock," Yan Chengyu said. "Then it's settled, shall we have dinner together tonight?"
"OK."
Yan Chengyu still had documents to process, so Qu Jianhang sat quietly on the sofa.
She messaged Lin Xiyin, saying she wouldn't be home for dinner that night, and whether she would go home to sleep was still uncertain.
In the afternoon, Yan Chengyu's secretary came in to report on his work and was quite startled when he saw Qu Jianhang.
He naturally knew Qu Jianhang.
Yan Chengyu handled many of the tasks.
When he was pursuing Qu Jianhang, the gifts he gave Qu Jianhang were bought by Yan Chengyu himself, since Yan Chengyu couldn't show his face.
Although the two hadn't been together for long, Yan Chengyu had pursued her for a long time.
This was the first time he had seen Qu Jianhang here in all this time.
Qu Jianhang glanced at him and laughed, "What's wrong? Are you so scared? Do other women usually come here with Yan Chengyu? Are you feeling guilty now that I'm here?"
The secretary quickly said, "How could that be! I just didn't expect to see you here."
Yan Chengyu said, "Bring the documents over."
The secretary quickly went to the desk.
Yan Chengyu said, "She always jokes, don't mind her."
The secretary quickly replied, "How could that be?"
Yan Chengyu looked down at the document and signed it.
The secretary added, "Director Zhao will be coming over later."
The implication is that Qu Jianhang is still alive, so should Director Zhao be met or not?
Yan Chengyu said, "Just let him come."
The secretary left the office and closed the door.
Qu Jianhang asked him, "Is it really not interfering with your work that I'm here? If Director Zhao comes, won't he think you're neglecting your duties?"
“How could that be?” Yan Chengyu said, “If I were really neglecting my duties, I wouldn’t be seeing him.”
"Whatever you want."
Qu Jianhang looked down at his phone again.
Yan Chengyu refilled her water and asked, "Would you like some snacks?"
Qu Jianhang asked curiously, "You have some here?"
"Wait."
Yan Chengyu left the office and went to the large office at the end of the corridor.
There are at least seven or eight civil servants in this office.
The office door was open.
Yan Chengyu raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Everyone looked over, and the next second they all stood up.
"Secretary, what brings you here?"
Yan Chengyu smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm just a little hungry. I was wondering if you guys have anything to eat."
Yan Chengyu rarely comes here, let alone asks his subordinates for food.
Sometimes during meetings, it is emphasized that eating is not allowed during work hours.
But who hasn't sneaked a snack at some point?
Especially girls.
There will definitely be some in your desk drawer.
His question stunned the girls, who wondered if he was setting a trap.
One of the bolder ones asked, "Secretary, we gave you food, you can't punish us, can you?"
"How could that be?" Yan Chengyu said. "I can only thank you."
Hearing this, they were relieved and took out their snacks to give to him.
"That's enough, that's enough." Yan Chengyu only took two small biscuits and a small bag of beef jerky: "Consider it a loan from me, I'll return them tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he returned to his office.
The people in the large office looked at each other in bewilderment.
I don't know what's wrong with Yan Chengyu today.
They actually came to ask them for snacks?
However, they soon had no more doubts.
Because during dinner, someone actually saw Yan Chengyu take a woman to the cafeteria!
Although the two did not engage in any intimate actions, it was obvious to the naked eye that they had a close relationship.
Although Yan Chengyu did not publicize it, he could not possibly have done such a thing.
However, quite a few people still know that he is with Qu Jianhang, a strong woman.
The news spread throughout the entire building.
Yan Chengyu actually brought Qu Jianhang to eat in the cafeteria!
Isn't this a perfectly legitimate way to go public?
Does this mean that good things are coming soon?
Or have the two of them secretly gotten their marriage certificate?
After all, Yan Chengyu was a law-abiding person.
His status and position also prevented him from doing anything unconventional.
So the fact that he could so openly take Qu Jianhang out to dinner means that their relationship must have been established.
Some people initially doubted the veracity of this story.
Now that I see the two of them together, I have nothing to say.
Many people were seeing Qu Jianhang for the first time.
They had heard this name often, after all, she frequently appeared on financial news and did charity work.
But she doesn't like to show her face or give interviews.
So many people have no idea what she looks like.
When people first learned that Yan Chengyu was pursuing her, many thought that Yan Chengyu was no exception to the common practice of falling for a rich woman.
After all, the organization had previously been concerned about his personal life and had introduced him to many potential partners.
There were doctors from military hospitals, university teachers, and cadres from government agencies.
Some were divorced, some were widowed, and some were even unmarried.
After all, Yan Chengyu held a high official position, and he was tall, handsome, and had a good physique.
If you're a rich man, it's not unusual for him to date a girl in her twenties.
He may not have that much money, but he has power.
But to everyone's surprise, Yan Chengyu politely declined all of these offers.
He has never even been on a blind date.
He even declined the kind offer from his former boss.
The old leader was quite angry at the time.
Who knew he would turn around and pursue Qu Jianhang.
The old leader looked down on Qu Jianhang, even though she was very rich.
After all, she's the daughter of a wealthy family, and a strong woman at that.
The partner we find for Yan Chengyu must be someone who can take care of him.
Is it possible to expect a strong woman to take care of him?
But no matter what others say, Yan Chengyu is single-minded in his pursuit of her.
Aside from work, he spent almost all his other time on Qu Jianhang.
But even now, Yan Chengyu knows that Qu Jianhang has not fully accepted him from the bottom of his heart.
If you accept, it means you've agreed to his marriage proposal.
He was really happy when Qu Jianhang came to see him today.
It seems to indicate that the relationship between the two has taken another step closer.
Many people were seeing Qu Jianhang for the first time.
When they saw her, their first reaction was: Who is this woman?
It's definitely not Qu Jianhang!
After all, they had only heard her name, but had never seen what she looked like.
Only a few of Yan Chengyu's closest subordinates probably know what she looks like.
Now that they see Yan Chengyu with a young and beautiful woman by his side, they can't help but have all sorts of wild thoughts.
After all, Qu Jianhang looked too young, and they didn't match up at first.
She was dressed simply, and there was no trace of the domineering or extravagant nature often associated with powerful women.
It looks clean, tidy, and simple.
Moreover, her face was truly beautiful; she looked only in her thirties, possessing a uniquely feminine gentleness and grace.
Let alone men, even women feel a sense of goodwill upon seeing him.
Some of the bolder ones took the initiative to greet Yan Chengyu.
He hadn't expected Yan Chengyu to introduce him, but unexpectedly, no matter who greeted him...
He gently embraced Qu Jianhang, in an intimate yet appropriate manner.
He would always say to people, "Hello, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Qu Jianhang."
Now everyone knows.
After the two sat down to eat, Qu Jianhang took the chopsticks he was handed and laughed, "What's this? Is this an official announcement?"
Yan Chengyu said, "What kind of official announcement is this? When I was with you, and we met your partners and stuff, didn't you introduce me to them too?"
Qu Jianhang said, "I only introduced your name, but I didn't say you were my boyfriend."
Yan Chengyu looked at her and said, "I'm holding your hand, it's obvious whether I'm your boyfriend or not, do I need to explain it separately?"
"Then what did you say to me alone today? You were hugging me, it's obvious whether you're my girlfriend or not."
Yan Chengyu picked out a piece of meat with alternating layers of fat and lean meat for her: "I'm happy to."
Qu Jianhang doesn't eat fatty food, so he picked out all the fatty meat from her plate and put it in front of him.
The staff members not far away were all secretly looking in this direction.
Yan Chengyu remained unmoved, put down his chopsticks, and began peeling shrimp for Qu Jianhang.
Qu Jianhang was used to it.
She was pampered and spoiled since childhood. Her parents and brothers doted on her.
When she was with Lin Xiyin's father, he treated her like a precious gem.
She had never peeled shrimp herself before.
But Yan Chengyu has only ever peeled skin for her in his entire life.
There were people watching nearby, and they could hardly believe their eyes.
"I always thought that someone like Secretary Yan would be very serious and meticulous when it came to dating."
"Yeah, we see that face at work, and we have to see it again after work. Just thinking about it gives me a headache. But who knows..."
"Who knew that he would act completely differently with his girlfriend and with us!"
Even at his age, Yan Chengyu remains tall, handsome, and has a great physique. Many young girls, who admire strength, are fond of him.
But he is a very serious and dignified person, with a stern face that has scared away many people.
But who would have thought that he would be so gentle and doting towards Qu Jianhang, with love in his eyes almost overflowing?
Everyone was shocked.
Qu Jianhang's visit certainly attracted a lot of attention.
She didn't go home that night; instead, she went with Yan Chengyu to his place.
The driver dropped them off, and Yan Chengyu took her hand and led her inside.
"I'll go buy you some fruit," Yan Chengyu said. "There's nothing at home."
"I'm not eating," Qu Jianhang said. "I'll eat at my house tomorrow."
Yan Chengyu ignored her and bought several items at the supermarket in the neighborhood, all of which were Qu Jianhang's favorites.
Once inside, he washed the fruit, placed it in front of her, and then pinned her down on the sofa.
"I wanted to do this back in the office." Yan Chengyu slipped a hand inside her shirt. "Did you miss me?"
