Wen Shuqiao changed her path and walked to the sofa to sit down. She picked up the half-finished cup of honey water and was about to drink it when her other hand took the honey water away from her.
She looked up, her eyes crinkling, "President Shen, wasn't this honey water for me? Why did you take it away?"
Shen Jiazhou snorted and finished the honey water in one gulp right in front of her. Wen Shuqiao sighed, wanting to say something, when she heard Shen Jiazhou say, "Your CEO Shen, go get you a hot cup."
Wen Shuqiao watched as he took the cup and went to the kitchen. The sound of running water could be heard; Shen Jiazhou was washing the cup.
She leaned back on the sofa, closed her eyes, and waited for Shen Jiazhou to come over, but as she closed them, drowsiness swept over her again.
Wen Shuqiao is actually quite good when drunk; aside from being sleepy, she won't do anything else.
When Shen Jiazhou brought out the fresh honey water, he saw that Wen Shuqiao had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
He gently placed the honey water on the coffee table, then sat down beside her and whispered, "Shuqiao? Shuqiao?"
Wen Shuqiao was woken up. Her eyes focused on Shen Jiazhou, and she subconsciously said, "Huh? Sorry, I fell asleep."
She shook her head, sat up, looked at the honey water on the coffee table, bent down, picked it up, took a sip, and found the temperature to be just right.
After drinking the honey water, Wen Shuqiao looked at Shen Jiazhou sitting next to her.
She met his eyes and chuckled softly, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"I want to see when you'll remember me," Shen Jiazhou said. "You have many things in your eyes, with Cancan coming first. Where do I come from?"
Wen Shuqiao leaned back on the sofa: "Why are you acting like a wronged little dog? I was just interrupted."
Shen Jiazhou silently turned his face to the side, clearly ignoring him.
Wen Shuqiao explained, "I really didn't expect the wine to have such a strong aftereffect. Actually, I wasn't drunk. I was just a little sleepy and my head was spinning. Now I've recovered and I'm back to normal."
"Shen Jiazhou," Wen Shuqiao called out, "turn your face around."
Can Can learned this from Shen Jia Zhou: when she doesn't like something and gets angry, she turns her face away and waits until she calms down before turning back.
Shen Jiazhou reluctantly turned his face back to look at her. Wen Shuqiao shook the honey water in her hand: "Thank you! The honey water is delicious. I was a little dizzy before, but now I'm completely fine! It's like a magic potion!"
Shen Jiazhou's lips curled up slightly. He admitted that he was always happy when Wen Shuqiao coaxed him.
Seeing the corners of his mouth turn up, Wen Shuqiao relaxed a lot. She finished the last bit of honey water and said, "It's getting late, I'll go upstairs now."
Shen Jiazhou also stood up: "I'll see you up."
Wen Shuqiao waved her hand: "No need, I'm really sober now."
Shen Jiazhou, without saying a word, hooked his finger around hers.
...
Wen Shuqiao looked at her fingers that were hooked and thought to herself, Shen Jiazhou really loves hooking people's fingers.
And it wasn't the kind of tight grip; it was like a light, floating feather, where a gentle sway was enough to separate his fingers.
But after they separated, Shen Jiazhou would definitely appear indifferent on the surface, but when she couldn't see him, he would get "angry" again, and then intentionally or unintentionally say some things that made people's teeth ache and they couldn't keep up.
Wen Shuqiao really had no way to deal with Shen Jiazhou.
They haven't even talked yet, but it already feels like they have. I really don't want to think that if they actually started talking, Shen Jiazhou would probably have her completely under his thumb.
But it was this dependence and need that also satisfied a little hidden quirk in Wen Shuqiao's heart.
She didn't say anything, but simply hooked her finger around Shen Jiazhou's and walked upstairs.
After walking a few steps, Shen Jiazhou couldn't help but ask, "Did anything interesting happen at the dinner party today?"
"What else could have happened?" Wen Shuqiao said, "It was just having a meal and chatting. What about you? Did you have dinner with your business partners?"
“Yes, his wife was away on a business trip, so he brought the kids out to eat. We just happened to run into each other, so we had a meal and a drink together,” Shen Jiazhou replied.
Wen Shuqiao hummed in agreement, choosing to keep Yan Ge's matter a secret.
If Shen Jiazhou knew that Yan Ge was wearing a deep V-neck dress and flirting with him, his reaction would probably be enough to blow the roof off.
Moreover, she was still a little suspicious of Yan Ge's talk of new and old loves.
In her memory, the original owner was wholeheartedly in love with Qin Sheng. Of course, as the daughter of the Su family, many people also showed interest in her, but the original owner didn't like any of them.
Ex-lover?
She needs to investigate further.
Once we find out, we'll see if we need to tell Shen Jiazhou.
They quickly went up to the second floor. Since Wen Shuqiao moved to the second floor, Shen Jiazhou had rarely come up, afraid that he might accidentally bump into something and make things awkward for both of them.
So the second floor has almost become Wen Shuqiao's personal space.
After seeing him to the door, Shen Jiazhou withdrew his hand: "Go inside. If you need anything, message or call me, and I'll be right up."
Wen Shuqiao wanted to say that she was really fine, but after seeing Shen Jiazhou's serious expression, she nodded: "Okay, goodnight Jiazhou."
Shen Jiazhou hummed in agreement, and as he watched Wen Shuqiao push open the door to her room, he couldn't help but call out to her, "Shuqiao."
Wen Shuqiao turned around and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Shen Jiazhou looked down at her face. Because she had been drinking, her face was slightly flushed and her eyes were wet. At this moment, because she wanted to hear him speak, all her attention was on him.
He took a slow, deep breath, trying to calm his wildly beating heart: "I'm very happy."
