Chapter 332 She’s Not That Generous

Chapter 332 She’s Not That Generous

Li Yansheng was very busy all day. Lin Shutang drew comics in Li Yansheng's office for more than three hours. When she first saw him, he stayed in the office for a while, said a few words to her, and then went out. He came back once in the middle and asked her if she was hungry. After getting her answer, he went out again.

A little after six in the afternoon.

Lin Shutang looked up. Her desk was still empty. She glanced down at her watch, stood up, stretched, and walked out of the office.

When a few people at the door saw her come out, they greeted her politely, and Lin Shutang responded with a smile.

However, after walking a few steps, Lin Shutang discovered that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong.

A few people looked at her with strange eyes.

She turned her head to look at her reflection in the glass. Everything was normal and she thought she was mistaken.

She randomly asked someone where Li Yansheng was. The person hesitated for a moment, looked towards the meeting room, and then walked away.

Lin Shutang was curious about why he didn't speak, but he didn't ask any further questions, thinking that he was just an introvert.

Arriving at the conference room door, Lin Shutang finally understood what they had been looking at. She paused for a moment as she watched the scene inside, then peered inside with disinterest. She tried to open the window, making sure it was locked from the inside before giving up and standing quietly, carefully observing the scene inside.

There were only two people in the conference room. One of them was Li Yansheng. He looked calm, seemingly emotionless, but Lin Shutang didn't miss the slight frown between his raised eyebrows, knowing that he was already very impatient.

The other person was a woman. She stood with her back to the conference room window. Lin Shutang couldn't see her face, but judging from her back, she must be quite pretty.

No wonder those people had such expressions before.

Lin Shutang didn't knock on the door, nor did he go in. He just stood by the window and watched.

The next second, the woman fell towards Li Yansheng. Her movement was sudden and without warning, but Li Yansheng still managed to avoid her. Then, Lin Shutang saw her kneeling on the ground.

Through the window, Li Yansheng noticed Lin Shutang outside the door and gestured for her to come in. The latter smiled knowingly at him, but did not move, only making a "no" shape with her mouth towards the inside.

Lin Shutang was not angry, he was just curious about what Li Yansheng would do, and he also felt a little bit of gloating.

The woman inside moved her position, and Lin Shutang also moved his feet, thinking about seeing what this person looked like.

The next second, Li Yan left the woman and walked towards the door.

As he walked out of the conference room, he closed the door behind him and seemed to have no intention of returning to the conference room.

"Why don't you go in?" Li Yansheng put his arm around Lin Shutang's waist and asked as he walked towards the office.

Lin Shutang didn't dare to say that he was curious about what he would do. That would be no different from directly saying "I want to watch the show". Therefore, he just replied: "I'm afraid that if I go in, it will affect your performance."

As they were talking, they had already sat down on the sofa. Li Yansheng gently pinched the soft flesh on her waist and asked, "Are you not angry?"

Lin Shutang shook his head: "I'm not angry."

Li Yansheng wasn't a chauvinist, and rarely restricted Lin Shutang, much less demanding that she revolve around him. But at times, he was no different from any other man.

He knew that Lin Shutang's answer just now represented enough trust in him.

But compared to such a generous answer, at this moment, he inexplicably wanted to hear her say a few dissatisfied questions, even if it might take him a long time to coax her.

Realizing this, Li Yansheng couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. He wasn't a young man in his twenties anymore, but he hadn't expected to have such thoughts. He was actually going backwards.

Well, he didn't want to see her feel unhappy.

Have enough trust in him. That's enough.

Lin Shutang didn't know what had happened to Li Yansheng's mood. He only asked in confusion after seeing him smile and shake his head, "What's wrong?"

Li Yansheng: "Nothing."

He stood up, packed up her things on the table and put them in his bag: "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."

Lin Shutang glanced at the time on his phone. Compared to his usual time to get off work, it was about half an hour earlier. "So early?"

Li Yansheng: "Well, nothing happened."

Lin Shutang nodded and glanced in the direction of the conference room as he left. Every time a conference room was used, someone would come and clean it up, and then the door would remain open for ventilation until the next use. It was still closed, most likely because the people inside hadn't left yet.

So, Lin Shutang asked, "Should we stop worrying about the lady in the conference room?"

As she spoke, she kept observing Li Yansheng's expression. Trusting Li Yansheng was one thing, but it was also true that she couldn't help but want to find out the man's identity.

Li Yansheng: "Well, just an insignificant person."

Then, as if he had thought of something, he smiled faintly, put his arm around her waist and left.

After entering the elevator, Lin Shutang asked him what he was laughing at. Li Yansheng approached her and asked, "Really don't know?"

He'd pushed them very close. It wasn't uncommon for them to be closer than this, but now in the elevator, so close they could hear each other's breathing clearly, and she had been thinking the same thing. This close, Lin Shutang was even worried that Li Yansheng would notice she wasn't as generous as she appeared. So, feeling somewhat guilty, she put on a fake smile and pushed him away: "I don't know."
