After a deep conversation that night, Shen Muqing and Gu Yanchuan's relationship progressed rapidly, and they naturally became a couple.
After Shen Muqing discovered that Gu Yanchuan had become even more clingy since they got together, he not only made her his personal secretary but also moved all her belongings to his house, justifying it all with a straight face.
"Couples should be together all the time, just like other people in relationships."
Shen Muqing was skeptical. Do people in love really stick together all the time?
However, after becoming his personal secretary, my desk was moved into his office, and my work became much easier than before. Every day, I just made tea and flipped through some documents.
Shen Muqing said this is a wonderful job, and she could do it until she's old.
Only Su Mohuan was sullen about this: "Qingqing, I don't want you to leave me."
"Huanhuan, I'm not resigning. We can still have meals together regularly."
"That's right."
Shen Muqing tapped her head with her finger, "You're overthinking it."
"Xu Che went on a business trip recently, and you were also transferred away, so I have no one to talk to."
"Xu Che went on a business trip? Alone?"
"He was with his colleagues."
"Male or female? Are you sure you trust him?" Shen Muqing asked teasingly.
Su Mohuan was helpless; she couldn't stop him from going on a business trip because the company required him. "It should be a man, right? He said he would bring me a gift when he came back."
"Huanhuan, you have such a big heart."
The conversation ended with both of them having to go to work, and they didn't continue talking about it.
In the evening, Shen Muqing lay on Gu Yanchuan's luxurious and spacious sofa, scrolling through her phone and occasionally letting out a laugh.
Gu Yanchuan had just finished showering and came out wearing loose clothes. He sat next to her for a long time and noticed that Shen Muqing didn't even glance at him. He complained, "Qingqing."
Shen Muqing didn't take her eyes off her phone for even a moment before replying, "What's wrong?" and then continued scrolling through her phone.
Seeing that Shen Muqing was still ignoring him, Gu Yanchuan snatched her phone away. "Qingqing, is your phone more important than me?"
Seeing that his phone had been snatched, Shen Muqing straightened up and said nonchalantly, "What's the point of comparing these two things?"
Gu Yanchuan sat down, picked up Shen Muqing and pulled her onto his lap, handing her the phone back, "Then you can play in my lap."
Then this scene unfolded: the petite woman was embraced by the man, his head resting against her shoulder.
Shen Muqing didn't expect that Gu Yanchuan would still be working on his computer so late at night. She had always thought he was quite free. Looking at the dense English text on his computer screen, it was like a nightmare.
She soon fell into a deep sleep. Gu Yanchuan noticed that the woman in his arms had fallen asleep, so he turned off the computer, got up, picked her up, and carried her to the room.
On the bed, Gu Yanchuan looked contentedly at Shen Muqing nestled in his arms, placed a kiss on her forehead, and then held her tightly as they fell asleep.
Shen Muqing was awakened by the heat. When she opened her eyes, she found herself in Gu Yanchuan's arms. No wonder she was hot. Didn't it get hot when the two of them slept together?
She struggled to break free from his embrace, but to her surprise, Gu Yanchuan held her even tighter.
So she gave up struggling, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep again.
After the first time, there were countless times. Gu Yanchuan had to hold her every day before he would fall asleep, saying that he couldn't sleep without her.
Shen Muqing, may I ask how you slept before? Have you never closed your eyes since birth?
Of course, when Shen Muqing slept with him, it was just a simple matter of covering each other with blankets, chatting, and sleeping, although sometimes it was she who was more likely to touch him inappropriately.
That day, Su Mohuan asked Shen Muqing a question.
"Qingqing, things have been so strange lately. Isn't Xu Che supposed to be away on a business trip? He keeps sending me 'I miss you' messages in the middle of the night. What's going on?"
Holy crap!
Shen Muqing's alarm blared. "Besides this, is there anything else?"
"Let me think about it. Oh, he always tells me that he will work hard to marry me and treat me well in the future."
Now Shen Muqing was almost certain that Xu Che had cheated on her, but she had no evidence. Saying it rashly would definitely upset Huanhuan, so she could only carefully consider her words.
"Huanhuan, I think you'd better wait for him to come back and keep an eye on his situation."
Shen Mu stopped there, saying nothing more, and roared in his heart: As expected of a male-oriented system, this damned world.
With Shen Muqing's reminder, Su Mohuan also became wary of Xu Che and planned to ask him what was going on when he returned.
Fortunately, the day didn't have to be long; tomorrow is the day Xu Che returns from his business trip.
That day, Su Mohuan finished her work early and went home to wait for Xu Che. As soon as Xu Che entered the house, he found his girlfriend sitting on the sofa with a serious expression, while his mother was eating melon seeds and watching TV.
Xu Che's heart skipped a beat. Had he been discovered? Impossible! He had hidden it very well.
When Xu's mother saw her son return, her face was full of smiles and she asked him with great concern:
"Son, you're back. Was your business trip tiring?"
Xu Che put down his luggage. "Mom, business trips are never easy."
Hearing her son's words, Xu's mother showed a distressed expression. "Huanhuan, quickly go and pour Ache a glass of water." Then she added with concern, "Son, even if you're making money, you must take care of your health."
Just as Su Mohuan was about to get up to get Xu Che some water, Xu Che quickly pulled Su Mohuan's hand and sat her back down on the sofa. "Huanhuan, I'm not thirsty, you don't need to go to so much trouble."
"Some people are just too pampered, unlike in my generation..." Xu's mother said sarcastically, but was interrupted by Xu Che before she could finish.
"Mom, please say less."
Su Mohuan's expression remained serious, and she didn't say a word. Xu Che asked cautiously, "What's wrong, Huanhuan?"
Not getting a reply from her, he continued, "Huanhuan, do you not like living with my mom? Then I'll work hard to earn money and buy a new house as our wedding home."
Upon hearing this, Xu's mother nearly fainted from anger. "Fine, fine, I gave birth to an ungrateful wretch who has forgotten his mother after getting a wife." With that, she stormed back to her room, the sound of the door slamming shut making the cups on the coffee table shake.
Xu Che even said these words, but Su Mohuan didn't react at all. "Huanhuan, even if I did something wrong, you have to give me a chance to explain."
Only then did Su Mohuan speak, her eyes fixed intently on Xu Che.
"I'm asking you, is your colleague on the business trip male or female?"
Xu Che had already prepared for the situation. "There are three of us in total, two men and one woman. I have always shared a room with my male colleague."
"Really? Why do you often text me in the middle of the night saying you miss me?"
"Of course I posted it because I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep." Xu Che used the excuse he had already prepared to deal with her, thinking that Su Mohuan would believe him.
To everyone's surprise, Su Mohuan's voice remained cold, "Then I am truly honored. Should I now give up my seat to that woman?"
Xu Che said in a trembling voice, "Huanhuan, I don't know what you're talking about? What woman?"
