Instantly, everyone in the store looked towards the stairwell, and upon seeing the man who appeared, they were all dumbfounded.
Standing at the top of the stairs was a handsome man with deep-set eyes and strong, refined features. He was tall and leaned lazily against the handrail, his eyes slightly lowered as he looked down at the group of people below.
Of course, that's not the point. The point is... his hair was still wet, just like he had just taken a shower.
It was as if he had just done something with his wife.
Furthermore, his words were so suggestive that they sparked a lot of speculation.
Not to mention the stunned guests and Qiuqiu, even Zhou Zuizui was a little distracted and surprised; she hadn't seen Shen Nan like this in a long time...
This person has always given off a tough impression, rarely showing such a down-to-earth and gentle side in front of outsiders. The last time I saw this scene was after what happened between the two of them...
Thinking of this, Zhou Zuizui snapped out of her reverie and looked away, her eyes flickering slightly as she coughed, feeling a little thirsty.
She played along with Shen Nan, giving him a coquettish look and saying, "I have some things to do. I'll be back later. You go to sleep first."
Upon hearing this, Shen Nan looked at her intently and said ambiguously, "Then hurry up, I'll wait for you."
Zhou Zuizui pursed her lips and shyly replied, "Okay."
Shen Nan smiled, glanced past her and at Brother Leopard who had been staring at him, and nodded slightly: "Please make yourselves at home."
After saying that, Shen Nan turned his back to everyone, reached out and touched his wet hair, and walked away calmly.
Everyone: "......"
How the hell can we do whatever we want now?
Leopard stared at Shen Nan's back for a long time, then gave Qiangzi a look.
Qiangzi nodded knowingly.
After watching Shen Nan leave, Zhou Zuizui pursed her lips, blushed, and smiled shyly at everyone: "Sorry, my husband hasn't been back for a long time, so I'm a little clingy."
Leopard gave a meaningful "oh," his eyes probing as he looked at Zhou Zuizui: "What does your husband do?"
“He’s in business.” Zhou Zuizui lowered her head and explained with a smile, “But I’m not sure what kind of business he’s in. We’ve been married for a long time, and he’s always traveling.”
"Really?" Leopard Brother looked at her with a slightly regretful, scrutinizing gaze. "Aren't you curious?"
Zhou Zuizui listened and said with a smile, "My husband is a bit of a chauvinist and doesn't really like me asking him these questions."
Qiuqiu, standing to one side, stared wide-eyed at her boss and asked innocently, "Sister, so you weren't joking when you told us you were married?"
“Of course.” Zhou Zuizui shrugged. “When has my sister ever lied to you?”
Qiuqiu: "......"
No, not really. But when Zhou Zuizui talked about being married that day, it wasn't formal at all; it sounded like she was joking around when she was drunk. Everyone laughed at her, saying things like, "If you're married, my kids are already so old!"
Afterwards, everyone treated what she said that night as a joke, and no one asked about it again.
And most importantly, their boss has always had a suitor who is very popular with everyone.
Although Zhou Zuizui kept saying that she had no feelings for that person and her attitude was very indifferent, everyone still watched with the hope that the two would get together.
The result is now—
Is it true that the boss told everyone he's married and has a husband?
Judging from what just happened, the two even seemed quite affectionate!
For a moment, Qiuqiu began to question the meaning of life.
Zhou Zuizui looked at the table of guests behind her, her voice regaining its coldness: "Is there anything else, everyone?"
Leopard looked at her for a moment and said readily, "Sorry, I was just a little curious about your husband. He looks a lot like someone we know."
Zhou Zuizui nodded, indicating her understanding.
"Businessmen, it's not surprising they've seen it before."
Brother Leopard nodded: "It's nothing. Are you the owner of this shop?"
“Yes.” Zhou Zuizui gestured to Lin Mu: “If anyone has any problems, they can ask our staff for help. They can handle it.”
"OK."
After Zhou Zuizui finished speaking, under everyone's gaze, she straightened her back and slowly climbed the stairs, one step at a time.
After her figure disappeared from the public eye, Qiangzi looked at Brother Leopard and said, "I'm going out for a bit."
Leopard didn't say anything, picked up the glass of wine on the side and drank it.
Qiuqiu and the others also performed their duties, busy with the tasks assigned by the customers and taking good care of the guests in the store.
However, during her free time, Qiuqiu couldn't help but wonder why there was suddenly a man upstairs, and why he was her sister's husband.
She waited downstairs all morning but didn't let anyone upstairs.
Although she was puzzled, Qiuqiu didn't ask. Having worked under Zhou Zuizui for over a year, Qiuqiu was quite clever and could read people's expressions and act accordingly.
......
More than ten minutes ago, when Lin Ping sent a message to Zhou Zuizui, Shen Nan also sent a message, even before Lin Ping did.
Zhou Zuizui was surprised by Shen Nan's information, but she could accept it.
Shen Nan said it wasn't safe there, and that the people staying at her inn were suspicious and might question her; she should just answer truthfully. She also casually asked Zhou Zuizui whether she was staying upstairs or downstairs.
Although Zhou Zuizui was puzzled, she still told Shen Nan.
As for Shen Nan, it only takes him about two minutes to get from the other side to this side. He went around to the backyard, nimbly climbed up to the second floor, found a half-open window, and climbed in.
As luck would have it, that happened to be Zhou Zuizui's room.
That's why the scene that caused the misunderstanding just now happened.
After leaving the group's sight, Zhou Zuizui walked quickly down the second-floor corridor and headed towards the back.
The tavern has a rather unique design, with a small, open courtyard in the middle and seating downstairs. Upstairs, the front is where the drinks are kept, and further back, a small door leads to Zhou Zuizui's residence. Qiuqiu lives across the street from Zhou Zuizui's place.
The plants in the backyard are quite lush. Behind the house is a small alley, but it's deserted and rarely visited.
Zhou Zuizui walked briskly and quickly returned to her room.
The door to the room was open, and she walked straight in. As soon as she entered, she saw the man sitting upright in the room.
Upon hearing the sound, Shen Nan looked at her, and the two exchanged a silent glance. Zhou Zuizui then closed the door behind her.
For a moment, the room was completely silent.
She leaned against the door and took a deep breath.
Almost there.
If she hadn't had a strong mental fortitude, she might have given herself away just now from that oppressive gaze.
Even now, her legs are still a little weak.
Suddenly, a clear glass appeared in front of her. Shen Nan looked down at her and said, "Drink the water and calm down."
Zhou Zuizui pursed her lips, took the water and drank it before looking up at him. His hair was still wet, almost the same as before, but... the only difference was that there was no longer that lazy and ambiguous feeling in his eyes, and he looked calm and composed.
As soon as she finished drinking, Shen Nan took the empty glass back from her, looked at her calmly, and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"
Zhou Zuizui pursed her lips and hummed in agreement. She found a chair and sat down, then looked around. The room hadn't changed much, but there was clearly an extra bag.
She looked up at the man standing ramrod straight in front of her, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the intimidating aura emanating from Shen Nan: "Could you please sit down?"
Standing there is so oppressive.
Shen Nan glanced at her, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he obediently sat down.
How did you get in?
Shen Nan succinctly replied: "Behind."
Zhou Zuizui: "..."
Well, soldiers are really something. They can climb up to the second floor so easily.
"Then how did you know my room was here?" As for how he opened the door, Zhou Zuizui didn't want to ask. She knew Shen Nan was good at this... Once, when they had just met, Shen Nan took her home, and she didn't have her keys, so he opened the door for her right in front of her.
Shen Nan hesitated for a moment, looked at her with deep eyes, and explained, "There are clothes hanging by the door."
Zhou Zuizui choked up, thinking of the two dresses hanging by the door, and fell completely silent.
She paused, about to speak, when Shen Nan's eyes flashed. He stood up from his chair, then reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist. In a dizzying moment... Zhou Zuizui was once again pinned to the bed by Shen Nan!
In an instant, her eyes widened as she stared at the man in front of her, his face so close to hers, and a torrent of curses raged in her mind: Damn it...
"you……"
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Nan pulled the blanket over them, creating an ambiguous and inexplicable illusion.
He looked at the person beneath him and whispered, "There's someone here..."
The two hid under the covers in complete darkness, with only a sliver of light shining in from above, allowing Zhou Zuizui to see the man in front of her clearly. His facial features were hard and cold, his eyes deep and dark, his brows furrowed, probably listening to the sounds from outside. Their bodies were pressed together, and at first Zhou Zuizui was quite nervous… nervous, nervous, when suddenly an image flashed into her mind.
Instantly, her face flushed red, and her body, which was pressed under the blanket, involuntarily shifted.
The moment she moved, Shen Nan pressed down on her feet, his breath coming in ragged gasps as he gritted his teeth in her ear: "Don't move."
Zhou Zuizui: "..."
She blinked, looking into Shen Nan's deep gaze, her eyes darting around, and suddenly a mischievous idea popped into her head. She wasn't some naive young girl; she knew what was going on with the man's reaction...
Under Shen Nan's warning gaze, Zhou Zuizui unexpectedly reached out from under the covers, hooked her arms around his neck, and called out sweetly, "Husband..."
Shen Nan: "..."
He stiffened, listening to her charming voice, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, his eyes growing darker and darker.
Zhou Zuizui wasn't afraid of him at all. She moved her body with difficulty under the covers, deliberately making ambiguous sounds: "Be gentle... um..."
She looked at Shen Nan, who remained unmoved, pinched his shoulder with her hand, and whispered in his ear, "Hurry up and cooperate with me."
Shen Nan groaned, forced out a sentence: "It won't be light..."
His eyes were deep and dark as he pressed down on Zhou Zuizui's neck, pretending to kiss her. His voice was hoarse, carrying a hint of possessiveness from a man aroused: "It's been so long since I've dealt with you... You missed me, huh?"
That's incredibly erotic.
Zhou Zuizui's face turned red.
Shen Nan stared intently at her flushed cheeks, his eyes flickering slightly. He looked away uncomfortably and began silently reciting Buddhist scriptures in his heart...
Ten minutes later, Shen Nan threw off the covers, got out of bed with a blank expression, and his face remained unchanged.
certainly--
If his ears weren't red, you'd really think he didn't feel anything at all.
Zhou Zuizui also had feelings; she wasn't dead, and besides, this man was her husband. Although it had only happened once, the memory was still vivid... just as Xia Wen had said, one time could be savored for two years.
cough……
She looked up at the cold-faced man and suddenly felt like teasing him.
Zhou Zuizui chuckled, raised an eyebrow at Shen Nan's gaze, pointed at him with a teasing look, and joked, "Captain Shen, your ears are red."
After saying that, she continued fearlessly, looking down at him: "Did you just get hard?" She curled her lips, looking at him with a smile and a provocative expression: "You got hard."
Author's Note: Zui Zui is too naughty. Should Master Chen teach her a lesson?!
One more thing: because it's a romance novel, it's more direct and exciting, unlike other sweet romance novels that develop gradually. Both characters are quite straightforward... Of course! This is also a very sweet novel!!
See you tomorrow! Please leave lots of comments, my darlings! I'll keep giving away red envelopes!! If we get 3,000, 6,000, or 9,000 comments, I'll add an extra chapter! Thank you everyone!
