Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Voluntary.
Commercial lofts have limited floor heights. After being divided into two, the total net height of the upper floor is only a little over two meters.
Shi Shu was tall, had long legs and broad shoulders. When he stood still, he looked like an impenetrable wall, squeezing out air so tightly that it was difficult for the air to circulate.
Su Tu usually felt a little depressed when staying here. At this moment, he was completely shrouded in his shadow, and his legs became a little weak due to this strong and compelling aura.
She buried her head, staring at the cotton slippers on her feet helplessly, and she found more and more that her height, body shape, palm, shoe size were all much different from his.
Before going out today, she even wanted to wear high heels to enhance her aura and resist his magnetic field.
Now it seems that this is simply self-humiliation...
She pursed her lips, as if she couldn't stand losing, and suddenly kicked his white shoes, angrily changing the subject: "What are you doing here?"
Shi Shu's gaze slowly wandered from her stubborn little face to the angry cotton slippers, as if he was witnessing a soft little animal waving its tiny claws, naively trying to shake off its natural enemy.
His chest felt like it was being scratched, and a tingling sensation spread through him. "Looking for you."
Su Tu's cheeks were already burning hot, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of his slender fingers holding his high heels. His bones were distinct, his veins were delicate, like white jade, without any impurities. However, against the backdrop of women's items, his fingers looked even more astringent...
She sighed silently for a long while before realizing what he had said. She angrily retorted, "Did I say I had time today?"
You didn't even tell me you were coming.
This caused her to make a big mistake for no apparent reason.
Shi Shu always felt enjoyable with this complaining look, perhaps because it was essentially the same as acting coquettishly, like a little rabbit puffing up its cheeks when angry and rolling around on him like a spoiled child.
His heart moved slightly, and his Adam's apple rolled over him with difficulty: "No."
"Just trying my luck."
Su Tu then looked up: "What?"
Shi Shu explained: "I'll go when I have time."
Su Tu: "What if you don't have time?"
Shi Shu: "I'm waiting for you to have dinner together."
“…”
Su Tu choked and wanted to say that you have made very clear arrangements. Have you got my consent?
Then she remembered that he always had his reasons for being so strong, and even without her consent, he would always find a way to achieve his goal.
She immediately became dissatisfied: "Then why don't you wait downstairs?"
Finding the entry point, he immediately taught her: "It is very impolite to just walk into someone else's office, don't you know?"
At the very least, if she had seen him downstairs just now, her high heels wouldn't have flown everywhere, let alone ended up in his hands now.
So all this is definitely his fault!
Shi Shu raised his eyebrows but did not argue.
Because she refused to tell him the schedule, he actually asked Tao Qingqing before coming. She said that she would go out to measure the house in the morning and should be back to the studio at noon. If it was convenient for him, he could just come and wait.
An hour ago, almost as soon as he arrived, he was arranged here and was told that there would be a surprise.
There is no other reason.
The studio has a small group of four people, and all messages are shared in real time.
He just quietly looked at her with his eyes and eyebrows lowered. When her long hair fell down, the fragrance on her body seemed to be more fragrant.
Gardenia? Or white tea?
He didn't quite understand these things, but what was certain was that it was undoubtedly a surprise.
And, he didn't want to leave yet: "Will being here affect you?"
Su Tu's expression became a little unnatural after being stared at. When he heard this out of the blue, he immediately denied it and said, "Of course not!"
What a joke.
How could she, with such a mature and firm will, be so easily influenced by a man?
Then Shi Shu seemed relieved, nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then I'll wait here."
“…”
Su Tu felt as if she was being plotted against again, but she had no evidence. As their eye contact deepened, she could feel his gaze becoming more and more direct.
So blatantly, she confined herself to his broad figure, staring at him nakedly.
She tilted her neck back and tried to hold on for a while, but finally couldn't hold on any longer and reached out to push him away: "Stop looking!"
Shi Shu then grabbed her wrist, but the strength he showed was not resistance, but indulgence. His tone was puzzled but firm: "Aren't you dressing up for me?"
“…”
Su Tu's face suddenly flushed, and he explained with great effort and hesitation: "Of course not! Didn't I tell you it was because I had a client to meet!"
Then he reacted: "Don't you believe what I said at all?"
Shi Shu pursed his lips and did not deny: "Yeah."
He also gave his approval after careful viewing: "It's very beautiful."
Su Tu felt like he was going to faint from anger: "..."
She opened her lips, but looked like she couldn't communicate with him at all, and couldn't utter a word.
She struggled to turn around, but the grip on her didn't loosen at all, and instead pulled her forward a little, causing her to lose her balance and lean forward.
Her hands instinctively rested on his chest.
Shi Shu glanced at her wrist, which hadn't changed at all, and then his voice softened: "Why aren't you wearing the bracelet?"
“…”
This was not the first time that Su Tu fell into his arms like this. She was well aware of his stubbornness and determination to achieve his goal, so she did not struggle in a hurry.
But it didn't stop her from being angry and not wanting to talk properly at all: "What do you think?"
She snorted softly, and said in a cowardly yet stubborn way, "I spent so much money on nothing. What if it gets damaged while I wear it? And what if you regret it one day and want me to return it..."
Shi Shu didn't even want to hear her finish, so he interrupted with a cold face: "No."
Su Tu was stunned: "..."
He said in a firm tone: "I won't regret it."
“…”
Su Tu felt him unconsciously increase his strength, and she also realized that her words were a little inappropriate. Although she always believed that such concerns were reasonable, it seemed that she should not say it so bluntly.
After a moment of silent reflection, he quickly admitted his mistake and lowered his voice in compromise: "...I understand."
Shi Shu insisted, "Then wear it?"
Su Tu raised his head, seeing that he looked a little fierce for no reason, and suddenly he became a little rebellious: "I, will think about it."
Shi Shu frowned, appearing anxious for a rare moment: "What are you considering?"
“…”
Su Tu's face flushed, and she felt it was really difficult to explain to such a rich person that the value of the bracelet to her was equivalent to a room in the city center.
Even if he signed a gift agreement now, he would never take it back from her. Wouldn't she feel bad if she wore such an expensive bracelet of his just to go to work or meet clients?
Moreover, they are not together yet, but she is eager to wear the things he gave her. Shouldn't she be reserved?
She hesitated, unable to make an argument, and kicked him again: "Anyway, I have to think about it."
"Let go, I'm going to start working."
Shi Shu's eyes relaxed, but he didn't insist any longer: "..."
I said I would wait until she volunteered.
As soon as Su Tu broke free, he hurried back to the table. Before he could calm his unbalanced heartbeat, he saw a bunch of bright daisies on the table.
Her expression froze, and she suddenly turned around to look, met his meaningful eyes, and turned away in panic.
It's totally unimaginable.
When he came today, he had a blank expression on his face and was holding a bouquet of flowers...
The office is simply furnished, with a set of reception sofas on one side and a set of desks and chairs on the other. Two display screens are placed vertically on the desk, which can effectively block the view from outside.
But she could see everything on the other side through the gap between the two screens.
She sat quietly at the table, secretly staring at the calm gaze coming from the narrow gap.
I said I was working, but in fact, it was only a few minutes away from lunch break. Not to mention that I couldn't do anything, I couldn't even calm down.
But the words had already been spoken, so she could only turn on the computer and pretend to type on the keyboard. In the chaos, she couldn't remember clearly how long his vacation period was this time.
Could it be that...
Will I have to stay at work like this every day from now on?
She suddenly opened her eyes wide, startling herself. She typed faster and faster on the keyboard, worrying about how to balance her career and her man at the same time. The gaze from the opposite side that had been oppressing her finally moved away.
As if he finally remembered that he had something else to deal with, he lowered his head, took out his phone, and began to reply to messages silently.
Su Tu was stunned for a moment, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if she could be like now, without him always staring at her, and if he had fixed things to do, she could give him a place to stay.
Then, the next second, the phone on the table vibrated, and the screen lit up: [Off duty]
“……!”
-
Two minutes later.
Su Tu changed back into her high heels in frustration, opened the door, and walked downstairs reluctantly. Her colleagues were carrying takeout and preparing to enter the meeting room.
Seeing the two of them coming down, they were no longer enthusiastic about eating and just stopped there to chat.
Tao Qingqing was the first to declare: "Sister Susu, I didn't order your takeaway today~"
Zhao Xuan immediately started to make a noise: "Why are you still ordering takeout? Aren't we going out to eat anyway~"
Yue Jia was a little more serious: "Master, will you be back this afternoon?"
Chen Weizhou immediately smirked: "Afternoon? Shouldn't you ask if he'll be back in the evening?"
“…”
Su Tu couldn't say a word. He just turned around and glared at someone with great resentment, then turned around and fled the studio in a hurry.
Shi Shu quickly caught up, but was stopped in the corridor again.
"Team Time—"
The four of them poked their heads out at the same time, their curiosity evident in their expressions.
Since asking Su Tu always yielded no results, he took this opportunity to ask someone else: "What is your relationship with my master now?"
Su Tu was still waiting for the elevator.
Shi Shu also wanted to clarify, so he paused and turned back to explain, "I'm chasing."
"Oh my god, oh my god—"
"What did I say—"
"Just based on this sentence, I have determined that you are the boss's husband—"
"Call us if you need anything. Remember, you still have four steadfast and powerful assists—"
Shi Shu nodded and did not refuse: "Thank you."
Su Tu was forced to wait there, listening to the entire conversation, but he was not quite sure what he was worried about.
He hadn't explained before, and she had thought about letting everyone ask him themselves.
Now that he had explained, she wished she could shut him up right there and then...
But no matter what, she seemed to be the only one who felt embarrassed in the end, which really made her extremely unhappy.
He got into the car awkwardly, refused to look at people for a long time, and when asked what he wanted to eat, he said nothing.
Shi Shu guessed that she would not be able to recover for a while, so he didn't say anything more. He just pulled over and got out of the car when passing a shopping mall.
Then, as if intentionally giving her space to calm down, he left her in the car and went into the mall alone.
After about twenty minutes, he came out carrying a white shopping bag.
He opened the passenger door, took out the shoe box, then leaned over and grabbed her ankles. When he took off the high heels that were rubbing her feet, the instep of her feet that his fingertips touched was indeed cold.
Su Tu was startled: "..."
Even though I've experienced this before, my instinctive reaction is to shrink back: "I, I can do it myself—"
Shi Shu insisted, "Don't move."
Then he just stood on the autumn street, bent over, and helped her put on her socks and shoes slowly as if he was learning.
Only after he had completely replaced one of her shoes did he look up and ask her, "Does it fit?"
Su Tu's body froze, his fingers tightly gripping the seat. This overly intimate gesture and the sudden distance between them made his heart beat wildly, and he spoke with difficulty: "Hmm..."
“How do you know…” my shoe size.
"It looks about the same."
Shi Shu didn't care much, lowered his head and changed to another one: "The store is right next to it. If it doesn't fit, you can go back and change it."
Su Tu's whole body was tense as he looked at the tall figure in front of him who had no airs at all.
Suddenly I felt that he was a little contradictory.
How could there be a person who possesses both an aggressiveness so strong that no one is allowed to disobey, and a tolerance so vast that it seems to have no bottom line at all?
He is both eager for quick success and full of patience.
He seemed to really like her, so much so that he was willing to use his power to suppress her and force her to submit.
He can also be very patient, so patient that even though he can do it in one go and force her to agree, he is willing to do so and do many small things that ordinary people would disdain, waiting for her to agree.
She didn't know why she hadn't shown enough willingness, but she clearly didn't have his deep patience. Suddenly, she couldn't wait to ask him, "...Shi Shu."
He changed his shoes and slowly raised his thin white eyelids: "Hmm?"
She held her breath nervously, suppressing her heartbeat as she looked into his deep eyes, thinking:
Do you want to...
Confess to me now?
