Shen Yunan felt a sudden, warm sensation in his heart.

He stared at Pei Wu's face, unaware that another incredible thought was flashing through his mind.

'Pei Wu, who came from another time and space... does she also have her own mission?'

Thinking of this, a strange look flashed across Shen Yu'nan's eyes, and he almost subconsciously reached out and grabbed Pei Wu's hand, which was about to withdraw.

This was the first time Shen Yu Nan had taken the initiative to hold Pei Wu's hand.

Shao Sang's delicate, fair skin was faintly visible under the towel, and beneath that snow-white skin were the mottled red marks left from her wedding night the previous day.

At this moment, the atmosphere inexplicably became stagnant.

Shen Yu Nan lowered his eyelids to conceal his pounding heart, but his slightly trembling eyelashes betrayed his thoughts.

'Knock knock'

The person who knocked on the door was Ju Heng, who promptly brought over a change of clothes.

The timely knock on the door broke the awkward silence between the two.

When Pei Wu withdrew her hand from Shao Sang's, she patted the back of Shao Sang's hand reassuringly, "I'll be back soon, don't be afraid."

From Pei Wu's perspective, Shao Sang had been quite compliant with her since the very first filming began. He rarely spoke and always had a low profile. Even when she was under the influence of drugs and forced herself on him, he only yielded and made concessions.

Even when Dr. Sun designed him to be a tool for procreation, he never complained. Even when Pei Wu talked to him about marriage later, he was too cowardly to fight for any benefit for himself.

Even if Shao Sang met Gu Yanyu today, she was only worried that Shao Sang would suffer at Gu Yanyu's hands. After all, she knew clearly what Gu Yanyu had done in the past. Pei Wu thought that Shao Sang was a very docile long-haired cat, and one whose nails had been trimmed... thin and weak, who would just curl up in the corner and silently lick her fur... the kind.

Upon hearing Pei Wu say "Don't be afraid," Shen Yunan was slightly taken aback, recalling the conversation between Pei Wu and Gu Yanyu just now.

She said she didn't like men like Gu Yanyu who appeared weak on the surface but were actually scheming.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu'nan stared blankly at Pei Wu's back, slightly lost in thought.

At this moment, Pei Wu even thought that Shao Sang would be afraid because of the confrontation with Gu Yanyu... but the soul belonging to Shen Yu Nan in Shao Sang's body was so aggressive... even wanting to drive Gu Yanyu out of the country.

Shen Yu Nan couldn't help but sigh.

Pei Wu returned quickly with the clothes. While delivering the clothes, Ju Heng told Pei Wu that the Xu family left Diana first, followed by Gu Yanyu. There was a gap of more than ten minutes between them, and the two did not meet.

Pei Wu nodded, which was considered as agreeing to Ju Heng's words.

When Pei Wu returned with the clothes, she saw Shao Sang staring blankly with her head down. Looking at Shao Sang's wet hair, Pei Wu inexplicably found her somewhat cute. Pei Wu went over and used a towel to dry Shao Sang's hair.

Sensing Pei Wu's approach, Shen Yu Nan belatedly looked up at her, feeling her wiping his hair, but a sense of loss filled his heart.

After a long while, Shen Yu Nan finally spoke, "Today is the first day after the wedding. According to custom, Shao Sang should serve tea to the elders in the family today."

"I have already explained the situation to my mother. She can understand. I will just go there earlier tomorrow."

"yes."

Just then, Shen Yu Nan's stomach rumbled loudly, which was particularly noticeable. Having been lying in the charging compartment all day without eating, Shao Sang's body could indeed feel obvious hunger.

Pei Wu heard this, but didn't look up. She just smiled slightly and said, "Let's go home after we change our clothes."

Shen Yu'nan's cheeks flushed slightly before she replied, "Okay."

Today's commotion made everyone realize that their CEO Pei is extremely protective of her own. She even yelled at Mr. Gu for the sake of her newlywed husband. Everyone knows what kind of status Mr. Gu has in CEO Pei's eyes. He is the white moonlight that CEO Pei cherishes and protects for so many years. Even when Secretary Shen came along as a substitute, she was still defeated by Mr. Gu many times.

Sure enough, their CEO Pei changed his ways.

Pei Wu and Shen Yu Nan arrived home quickly, where dinner delivered by Li Jian was laid out on the table.

After dinner, Shen Yu'nan took clean clothes to the bathroom. He felt that the cold tea was still on his skin and that simply wiping it off was not enough. This strange feeling always reminded him of what had happened that afternoon.

Suddenly, the image of a delicious dinner flashed through his mind. After pondering for a while, Shen Yunan closed his eyes, adjusted the water temperature, and let the comfortable jet of water cascade down from above his head.

Shao Sang's simulated skin turned slightly pink under the hot water, and a faint layer of heat enveloped her body.

After a while, he turned down the water flow, touched his face, and then slowly opened his beautiful eyes.

He's been so busy lately that he's completely forgotten about dealing with Li Jian, who has ulterior motives.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu Nan suddenly bit his lip, remembering what Pei Wu and Gu Yan Yu had just said.

On the surface, she maintains the image of a virtuous and kind woman, but in her heart, she wants to follow her own true desires. Has she stepped into Pei Wu's... minefield again?

She said she didn't like men like that.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu'nan decided to temporarily put aside his desire to resolve things with Li Jian.

Having made up his mind, Shen Yu Nan turned off the shower. Standing in front of the mirror, wiping the moisture off his body, he found it hard not to look at the marks Pei Wu had left on his body, and the events of last night kept replaying in his mind.
