"Go back and rest early."
"Thank you, Mr. Pei."
Shen Yu Nan couldn't figure out Pei Wu's thoughts at the moment. She inexplicably gave him a holiday and also gave him something.
Only after leaving the president's office did Shen Yu Nan take a closer look at the paper bag he was carrying.
only...
Shen Yunan glanced uncomfortably at the door he had closed. He didn't understand why the person who had mentioned the marriage to the young master of the Zhou family to him yesterday was still not making him leave.
Thinking of this, Shen Yu'nan, out of curiosity, decided to look at what was in the paper bag.
The first thing that catches the eye is the black thermos. It was only after Shen Yunan glanced at it with her beautiful eyes that she noticed the words "Heartwarming Patch" written on the long paper bag next to the thermos.
Shen Yunan's dark eyes narrowed slightly, his brows furrowed, and he reached out to open the thermos next to the hand warmer. Although the thermos was at a normal temperature on the outside, when Shen Yunan opened the lid, a waft of hot steam immediately hit his face, and a strong smell of brown sugar filled his nostrils.
Shen Yu Nan knew perfectly well what was in that cup.
However, Shen Yu'nan found it increasingly difficult to understand Pei Wu's intentions.
The scalding hot brown sugar water dripped slowly from Shen Yunan's hand into the sink.
"Cough cough."
Shen Yu'nan looked up at himself in the mirror. His lips were completely bloodless, and apart from his bright, shining eyes, his face was deathly pale. He was already short of breath after just a few coughs.
In his view, Pei Wu's actions were undoubtedly a way of making fun of him.
Born prematurely, Shen Yu Nan was born physically weak. In a family that favored girls over boys, Shen Yu Nan not only had to help with chores, but he also had to work incredibly hard to get into university. During his three years of high school, he hardly slept a wink. His parents originally wanted him to marry a woman from the village so they could get some money to help the family. They even refused to let him go to the university he was admitted to.
Shen Yu Nan always remembered his mother telling him, "When you grow up, find someone to marry into. We raised you all these years, you can't just stay at home and spend our money. You have to make some contributions to the family. Your sister still needs to study and get married."
Later, Shen Yu Nan ran away, taking his university admission notice and fleeing to the city where his university was located. He struggled to support himself, barely making ends meet, until he met Pei Wu. She used what he valued most to blackmail him into giving himself to her.
The birth control pills he had taken had already left his body riddled with holes. He had never imagined that his body could become pregnant and give birth like other men, which made the brown sugar water flowing into the sewer even more irritating. He felt that this was Pei Wu's way of mocking him.

'Data is being refreshed, please wait.'
Pei Wu listened to the system's broadcast while handling her tasks.
'Data refresh successful, Friendship value 0, Romance value -7'
Hearing the data in her ear, Pei Wu's eyelids twitched suddenly.
She couldn't understand why the data was decreasing instead of increasing. In her eyes, these game characters were nothing more than program data she had designed in her computer, yet this data possessed thoughts almost like real people...
A strange emotion welled up inside her.
'A reminder to all players: if any stats remain below zero, you will be returned to the game pod.'
'.....'
After a while, Pei Wu dialed her subordinate's internal phone again.
"Have the personnel department send over a copy of Shen Yu'nan's information."
"yes."
Shen Yu'nan's file arrived quickly, a few thin pages packed in a yellow file folder. The file contained only standard employee information: name, age, date of birth, home address, and university.
Although he exudes a mature and composed aura, he is actually a few years younger than Pei Wu.
The remaining sheets of paper contained Shen Yu Nan's work experience. Although he was young, he had a lot of work experience. Pei Wu read them carefully one by one. Each piece of work experience was written in extremely detailed characters, which showed how much Shen Yu Nan wanted to join Diana back then.
As Pei Wu looked through the messages one by one, she was reminded of the hand that had just served her coffee. Although it was fair and slender, it did not hide the signs of age.
'Dear player, game data is being refreshed, please wait...'
Friendship Value: 5 Romance Value: -7
"What is the friendship value?" Pei Wu asked the system.
'Friendship points, simply put, represent how well you know the person you're trying to win over.'
'Um. '
These details weren't present in the game character's memories obtained by Pei Wu. The memory stated that Shen Yu Nan only became her secretary because of her striking resemblance to her "white moonlight" (idealized love interest). Shen Yu Nan wasn't willing to be her lover; she only submitted to her through extreme means in her memories. The only other memory was that Shen Yu Nan was quite capable, and nothing more.
Since entering the game yesterday, Pei Wu has been staying at the company. The president's sudden and proactive handling of company affairs led to the overnight dismissal of General Manager Guo, who was in charge of the northern business, causing the entire company to be on edge.
After reviewing the documents, Pei Wu convened a meeting regarding President Guo's case. Although some suggested that Pei Wu should consider President Guo's contributions to Diana over the years and simply dismiss him, Pei Wu still decided to send him to F Hospital for legal processing, thus deterring others from harboring any illusions.
