Min Xi went to the restaurant to get her cell phone and sent a message to Yu Chengtan, telling him that if he hadn't booked a flight back home for tomorrow afternoon, he didn't need to book one, and if he had, he should cancel it now. She had two days off over the weekend and was not in a hurry to go back.
As for where you are going and what you are going to do in the next two days, you don't have to tell your boss everything.
She has been working overtime for two weeks in a row, and Yu Chengtan will not refuse her leave.
Yu Chengtan called back quickly: "Three days off is fine."
If Min Xi was replaced on this project, other colleagues in the company would inevitably talk about her behind her back because she was such a strong-willed person.
Worried about her condition, he asked, "Which city are you in this weekend? I'll come over to meet you for coffee."
Min Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Do you think I'm the kind of person who gets upset when encountering a little setback?"
Yu Chengtan smiled and said, "You won't be so depressed about such things." But she devoted herself to a project for so long, and it was also the first project she was responsible for independently. The meaning was different, and the emotions she poured into it were different. No one would be willing to end it in such a bleak way.
"Mr. Yu, don't worry. I'm not someone who can't let go. You should agree to whatever conditions Sheng Jianqi puts forward. If he wants to replace someone, then you should replace him. Don't be so picky about money."
Min Xi joked to himself: "My love for Shengshi Technology is one-sided. Isn't it normal that it has no result? You can't force the person you like to like you."
It was very quiet over there. I could hear him walking and then the sound of water being poured.
Yu Chengtan was still in the company, taking a sip of the freshly poured coffee.
When he is in a bad mood, he doesn't like others to comfort him with all kinds of moral principles. Unless the knife falls on his head, he will never know how painful it is.
He didn't try to comfort Min Xi, but instead pressed on: "Where are you planning to go? I have nothing to do on the weekend, so I'll go over to have dinner with you."
"Go to Jiangcheng. Fu Yanzhou is on a business trip there."
"Mr. Fu has investments in Jiangcheng?"
"Probably. Never asked."
This topic ends here.
Yu Chengtan: "When you go to Jiangcheng, you should feel better. Don't bring your work emotions into your relationship with your spouse."
He was thinking of a solution to the Shengshi Technology case. There was always room for maneuver before the last moment.
After the call ended, Min Xi turned around and saw Fu Yanzhou. He hadn't figured out when he sat on the sofa in the living room.
She would leave here tomorrow morning, so she went to the study to pack her things.
From the time of bidding to now, she has been busy for three or four months, revising and refining the plan over and over again. She can no longer remember how many coordination meetings she has held with Shengshi Technology.
Finally, the plan satisfied everyone and was appreciated by the former CEO.
Last month, there were personnel changes at Shengshi Technology, and Sheng Jianqi was appointed as the new executive president. The first thing Sheng Jianqi did after taking office was to kill her.
After installing all the data and the computer, Min Xi went back to the bedroom to take a shower.
The exhaustion from working overtime in recent days plus the bad news just now made my body exhausted to the limit. I couldn't hide it even if I wanted to, and the fatigue was embedded between my brows.
Min Xi came out of the bathroom after taking a bath with a bottle of body lotion. Fu Yanzhou was standing at the end of the bed unbuttoning his shirt. His fingertips had just landed on the third button when he turned around and saw her.
All of Min Xi's nightgowns were blue, and the one she was wearing now was a gray-blue ice silk suspender nightgown that barely covered her legs. Fu Yanzhou paused for a moment and then continued, looking at her face for a moment, like a frost-bitten eggplant after taking a bath.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Min Xi just walked up to him and stopped: "Tired."
"Then go to bed early." Fu Yanzhou walked towards the cloakroom.
Min Xi turned around and looked at him. She said that he would probably never be able to give her a hug when she was tired in his lifetime.
Sitting on the bed, she began to apply moisturizer, carefully spreading it evenly on every inch of skin.
After carefully taking care of her skin, Min Xi crawled into the quilt and lay down. But before she lay down comfortably, she stood up again and opened the drawer of the bedside table. Fu Yanzhou had prepared condoms in advance, so she lay down again with peace of mind.
While wondering whether there would be any turning point in the Shengshi Technology case, Fu Yanzhou took a shower, turned off the lights and went to bed.
Although they shared the same quilt, they each had their own pillow and never slept while hugging each other. The space in the middle was enough for one more person to lie down.
Min Xi was just physically and mentally exhausted, but not sleepy at all. After thinking about the bad work, she thought of Fu Yanzhou. He was right next to her. She could smell the cool breath on him and hear his slight breathing.
In the darkness, she unconsciously twirled her hair with her fingers.
Fu Yanzhou's face was in profile. He couldn't see her face clearly but saw her hands moving.
"Didn't you say you were tired?"
"Um."
As soon as Min Xi finished her words, a dark shadow came over and she was pulled into a strong embrace.
She paused for breath.
They had been intimate only a few times, and she was not familiar enough with his body and his arms to control her own throbbing.
Maybe I was just in a bad mood tonight, and I felt a lot more at ease when he held me in his arms like this.
Wanting to be held by him for a little longer, Min Xi thought of a solution: "I wanted to make four wishes tonight. Do you want to hear the fourth one?"
"No."
Fu Yanzhou wanted to say that he was not interested in listening, but he held back when the words came to his lips.
"My fourth wish is that you hug me for ten minutes before foreplay. We don't have any emotional foundation, so we need to create the right atmosphere."
Now he had no choice but to listen.
She stressed: "Ten minutes, not a minute less. A hug is a hug, not something else can be done at the same time."
Fu Yanzhou: "...If you make a wish again next year, can you make something normal?"
Min Xi really wanted to ask, what was wrong with this wish?
But it didn't spoil the fun.
She pulled her arms out of his embrace and wrapped them around his neck. Only at this time could she hug him unrestrainedly and without any psychological burden.
She buried her face in his neck, and rubbed his nose unconsciously. Every time she rubbed him, a warm current rushed through his lower abdomen.
Fu Yanzhou just listened to the so-called ten-minute hug request and didn't take it to heart, when she suddenly got the urge to torment him on the bed.
He tried to suppress the strong desire that kept rolling up in his chest, which was much more difficult than suppressing his urge to smoke.
"Are you tired?" he confirmed again.
Min Xi didn't answer.
Fu Yanzhou took her as an acknowledgment that she was not tired, so he leaned one elbow on her side, took her right hand, and clasped their fingers together.
Min Xi's right hand was clenched and pressed against the bed sheet.
Fu Yanzhou kissed her hard, his breath instantly blended into hers, and Min Xi's heart tightened.
"The hug wasn't even ten minutes, not even five," she protested.
"Do you really have to torture me?" Fu Yanzhou said hoarsely against her lips.
Why is it so troublesome?
Min Xi didn't intend to answer this question that had no answer, so she found a new topic to bring up: "Where's your ring?" He didn't wear it on his finger. Just now, she looked at his bedside table and saw only a charging cable, but no ring.
Fu Yanzhou said, "Pick it."
Min Xi didn’t understand at first whether this was just a temporary removal or a complete removal and never to be worn again.
"I took it off before I went on a business trip to Jiangcheng. It was uncomfortable to wear."
Min Xi understood that he would never wear that wedding ring again.
The kiss continued.
Fu Yanzhou held the back of her head, pushed open her lips, and forcefully penetrated.
Only when they were kissing deeply could Min Xi feel the passion beneath his calm and self-controlled appearance, but today she was distracted by her wedding ring.
She was absent-minded, and Fu Yanzhou was displeased, so he bit her lips to remind her to concentrate.
Min Xi felt pain. Her right hand was pressed on the bed sheet by him and she couldn't use any strength. She freed her left hand to press his neck. When he kissed her deeply again, she bit him.
Fu Yanzhou narrowed his eyes, his consciousness went blank for a moment, and a stabbing pain went straight to his heart. He pulled off her left hand and pinched her wrist to prevent her from moving.
"My hand is broken!" Min Xi accused him.
After the sharp pain on the tip of his tongue passed, Fu Yanzhou calmed himself and suddenly let go of her wrist.
His mouth was full of salty taste, and she wanted to bite off his tongue.
"I didn't mean to bite you." Min Xi explained.
Fu Yanzhou turned on the light, without looking at her, straightened his bathrobe and went to rinse his mouth.
Walking to the bathroom door, he gripped the door handle tightly, breathing heavily, but ultimately did not push the door open.
He left and came back. Min Xi looked up, his jawline was tense, and his anger was suppressed in his cold eyes.
Fu Yanzhou walked to the bed, looked at her with a serious face, handed her his hand, pointed his chin at her left hand, and motioned for her to show him her hand.
Min Xi's voice was hoarse: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
She said it didn't hurt, and Fu Yanzhou turned around and went to the bathroom. She rubbed her left wrist which was almost broken by him just now. If it weren't for the wedding ring, she wouldn't have bitten so hard. She didn't think too much when she bit it.
There was the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
After a while, the sound of water stopped, and about a minute or two passed and he still didn't come out.
There was no quarrel, but the romance between the two of them disappeared completely.
Min Xi turned over, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
In the bathroom, Fu Yanzhou rested his hands on the sink, and the veins on the back of his hands were particularly clear. I just used a whole bottle of ice water to rinse my mouth, but it had almost no pain relief effect. She bit my tongue and left a deep cut that burned me deeply.
He turned on the faucet again and splashed cold water on his face, the water droplets rolling down his chin and onto his neck.
He stood up straight and wiped it roughly with a towel.
I turned off the bathroom light and went to see Min Xi.
She was in a bad mood and slept with her back to him.
Fu Yanzhou didn't want to have a cold war with her. He would not drag any conflicts until the next day to resolve them. He asked directly: "Why were you distracted in bed? And why are you suddenly angry?"
Min Xi didn't turn around. He was silent for a while before saying, "Fu Yanzhou, when you asked me to think twice before marriage, have you ever thought that life is long, longer than you think, and it's not easy to live with someone you have no feelings for. It's only been more than a month since we got married, and you think marriage is a burden and you don't even want to wear a ring?"
Fu Yanzhou thought carefully about her accusation, and after thinking from her perspective, he said frankly, "I didn't do it right."
As for why he doesn't wear the ring all the time, he thinks the ring is just a formality, and marriage doesn't have to be a formality. Comfort is the most important thing, and if the ring is uncomfortable, there is no need to wear it every day.
If she thinks form is important, he will take it into account.
The lights in the room went out and the person behind me went to bed. Min Xi had her back to Fu Yanzhou. She didn't know whether he was lying flat on his back or lying on his side with his back to her like her.
Suddenly, her waist felt heavy, and Fu Yanzhou's arm fell down, gently holding her left wrist, and kneading it with his thumb neither too lightly nor too heavily.
Min Xi didn't like to take Qiao: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Fu Yanzhou didn't respond and continued to help her relax her wrist.
The conflicts between her and Fu Yanzhou often came unexpectedly and sometimes went away inexplicably.
Min Xi turned around to face him, and there was a faint vapor on his neck.
"Does it hurt?" she asked in a low voice.
"Um."
The wound still hurts a little and I can't sleep at all.
Fu Yanzhou let go of her hand: "Stay with me for the rest of the night."
Min Xi didn't understand.
Fu Yanzhou leaned over, clasped his hands around her waist and held her in his arms, lowered his head to cover her lips and kissed her gently, and then used his knees to separate her legs.
