The two lingered in the office for a long time until it was finally time for Chen Ningsheng to leave work. Chen Ningsheng tidied up everything on the desk, intertwined his fingers with Xu Xingchen's, and led Xu Xinchen out.

Not all the people in the company had left yet. Those who were still packing up saw Xu Xinchen and Chen Ningsheng holding hands and all smiled knowingly.

Seeing that the gloom that had shrouded Chen Ningsheng's face all day had completely dissipated, Xu Xingxin couldn't help but secretly give him a thumbs up.

The boss's wife is so kind; her appearance finally brought our boss back to normal. This was the sentiment of everyone in the office.

Seeing Chen Ningsheng holding Xu Xinchen's hand and even greeting them with a gentle nod, they were all flattered and almost regarded Xu Xinchen as their savior.

"I never expected the boss to like his wife so much. No wonder he was so angry about her having dinner with Zhou Li." Someone remarked after Xu Xinchen and Chen Ningsheng left.

"Yes, I really didn't expect that. I still remember when the boss's wife first left the company, our boss disappeared for so many days. The boss's wife is really important to the boss. We have to make sure we get along well with her when we see her in the future."

Xu Xinchen had no idea how much of a commotion her public display of affection with Chen Ningsheng had caused within the company.

All she knew was that at that moment, she and Chen Ningsheng felt like an ordinary young couple. This feeling of happiness was something she had never experienced before in two lifetimes, and Xu Xinchen couldn't help but smile.

Chen Ningsheng opened the car door, turned his head to look at Xu Xinchen, and saw that Xu Xinchen was looking at him and smiling, so he couldn't help but laugh along: "What are you laughing at? Why do you look so silly?" Chen Ningsheng put Xu Xinchen into the car, and at the same time touched Xu Xinchen's hair, and started to tease Xu Xinchen.

"It's nothing." Xu Xinchen chuckled, keeping the matter a secret and keeping it firmly under wraps. She wouldn't tell Chen Ningsheng her thoughts, lest he get too cocky later.

Seeing that Xu Xinchen was unwilling to talk, Chen Ningsheng did not press her further. He simply squeezed Xu Xinchen's palm and rubbed his fingers inside her palm, making Xu Xinchen feel ticklish and laugh even more happily.

Time always flies when two people are together. A day passed just like that. When Xu Xinchen got up, she looked at Chen Ningsheng, who was still sleeping beside her, and gently lowered her head to kiss him.

Chen Ningsheng had already noticed Xu Xinchen's actions when she woke up. So when Xu Xinchen kissed him and tried to leave, he immediately reached out and pulled her back into his arms: "You want to leave so early in the morning after kissing me? Huh? Who taught you that you have to take responsibility for me after kissing me? How can you just leave without saying a word?"

Xu Xinchen hadn't expected Chen Ningsheng to actually be awake; he had only been pretending to be asleep. He had noticed her little actions, and her face instantly turned bright red: "You, you actually dared to pretend to be asleep, you bastard!"

Upon hearing Xu Xinchen's words, Chen Ningsheng grinned, a smug smile spreading across his face: "If I hadn't pretended to be asleep, how would I have known that my baby would secretly kiss me after waking up in the morning?"

Xu Xinchen's face flushed red, and she dared not look directly at Chen Ningsheng again, so she could only let Chen Ningsheng tease her. She reached out and rubbed...

She gently squeezed Chen Ningsheng's hand that was on her waist and said, "Let go of me right now. It's so late, I need to get ready quickly."

Chen Ningsheng grunted an "oh," then pounced on Xu Xinchen, pinning him beneath him. He gently rubbed against Xu Xinchen, letting her sense the torment he was enduring: "You started this fire, and now you just want to walk away?"

Xu Xinchen's cheeks were flushed, and she blinked, not daring to look at Chen Ningsheng: "Go to the bathroom and take a cold shower."

Chen Ningsheng's eyes looked extremely dangerous: "After you finished flirting with me, you actually made me take a cold shower? Don't you have any conscience at all?"

Xu Xinchen blinked innocently, "My body is still very weak. What if I faint again?"

Having used his physical weakness as leverage, Chen Ningsheng was truly helpless against Xu Xinchen. He could only release her and slam himself heavily onto the bed, saying, "Oh, you really know how to hit my weak spot. Fine, I'll let you off this time, but if you do this again next time, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As Chen Ningsheng spoke, he reached out and rubbed Xu Xinchen's arm, making it very clear that when he said "no politeness," he really meant no politeness at all.

Xu Xinchen slapped away Chen Ningsheng's mischievous hand from her body and said to him coquettishly, "Okay, okay, get up now."

After Chen Ningsheng went to work, Xu Xinchen continued her job search. She had searched in the eastern part of the city yesterday but had not found a suitable company, so today Xu Xinchen planned to go to the western part of the city to look for one.

There was also a little selfish reason behind this. Yesterday, Chen Baifei appeared in the east of the city and said he wanted to develop his career here. Xu Xinchen was worried that she might run into Chen Baifei if she worked in the east of the city, so she chose to go to the west of the city today.

Perhaps Xu Xinchen had used up all her bad luck yesterday, because she was very lucky today. The first company she interviewed with had a very good impression of her.

Especially after Xu Xinchen mentioned that she had previously worked at Gu Yan and Chen Ningsheng's company, the person in charge of that company's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly to Xu Xinchen with satisfaction.

“Ms. Lu Minshi, your work experience is a real plus for us. How about this, you can start working in the sales department tomorrow. There will be a three-month trial period, during which your salary will be lower. If you can become a full-time employee after three months, we will increase your salary and promote you.”

Xu Xinchen nodded. Salary was secondary to her right now; what was important was that she needed to use the work opportunity to improve her skills.

She wanted to be someone who could stand by Chen Ningsheng's side and face the storms of life with him, instead of a delicate dodder that could only hide under Chen Ningsheng's protection and rely on him for support.
