Chapter 114 Let me take a cold shower next time
The sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped.
A moment later, the man came out in a bathrobe.
Bringing out a burst of refreshing coolness.
He smelled the familiar scent of shower gel on his body and frowned slightly.
The anger that had finally subsided was ignited again.
Shen Xichuan pinched his eyebrows and walked towards the living room.
He glanced across the living room.
Xu Jialan was still sitting on the sofa.
The pink knitted jacket that had fallen to the ground was now draped over the armrest of the sofa.
Her eyes were slightly lowered, and she was holding her phone as if she was replying to a message.
Her long, smooth black hair fell on the sides of her cheeks, blocking her face.
But it did not hide the red spots on her fair and delicate neck.
Shen Xichuan’s Adam’s apple moved.
His jaw tightened slightly, forcing himself to look away, he strode into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a can of Coke, opened it with one hand, looked up, and drank most of it.
I barely managed to suppress the heat in my heart.
Xu Jialan heard his footsteps as early as when he walked out.
Thinking back to not long ago, he was almost provoked by her to the point of losing his composure.
This was the first time Xu Jialan felt his strength and dominance.
That was something she couldn't resist.
That's why, just before he came out, she lowered her head in panic and casually looked at her phone.
Shen Xichuan held the can with his fingers and looked sideways in the direction of the living room.
He squeezed the can a little harder.
After a few seconds, he finished the rest of the Coke, threw away the can, and walked out of the kitchen.
Feeling him approach, Xu Jialan's breath caught in his throat, he coughed lightly, and said, "Just now... your phone vibrated. Someone must have sent you a message."
Shen Xichuan glanced at her and hummed.
He turned his gaze to the coffee table, bent down, and picked up his phone.
Xu Jialan stood up subconsciously when he bent down.
"I...I have something to do. I'll go to the study."
After saying that, he was about to slip away.
Shen Xichuan glanced at the message on the screen, then reached out and grabbed her wrist.
The girl's wrists are very thin and her skin is very delicate.
Just a slight squeeze and a faint red mark appeared.
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
I don’t know what I thought of.
Xu Jialan was caught off guard and stopped abruptly.
She looked up and looked over.
It just happened to bump into the man's deep and bottomless eyes.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
Xu Jialan didn't react for a moment, "Huh?"
Shen Xichuan noticed her absentmindedness and chuckled, “I say, what’s the matter with you?”
Hearing this, Xu Jialan curled his fingers, "Ningning... asked me to send a document."
His voice trembled slightly due to guilt.
"Are you anxious?" Shen Xichuan asked again.
Xu Jialan pursed his lips and said, "There should be no rush."
Sure enough, one lie must be covered up with countless lies.
Shen Xichuan hummed, “Since you are not in a hurry, then let’s send it later, okay?”
Facing Shen Xichuan's unprincipled Xu Jialan: "...Okay."
The man chuckled, exerted a little force on his hands, pulled her into his arms, raised his hands, and hugged her waist.
"Why are you so good?"
He whispered in her ear.
Xu Jialan's heartbeat quickened slightly.
Couldn't he just stop teasing her?
Shen Xichuan rested his chin on the top of her hair, smelled the faint fragrance, and sighed silently.
"Let me hold you for a while."
Xu Jialan leaned in his arms, feeling the faint coolness coming from him, and was slightly stunned.
"Did you take a cold shower?"
Shen Xichuan sighed helplessly, “How about I take a hot bath?”
Thinking about how he almost lost control just now...
Xu Jialan's face burned hotly, "That's not what I meant."
Shen Xichuan touched her head and said in a gentle tone, “I know.”
After a while, Xu Jialan whispered, "It's easy to catch a cold when taking a cold shower. Next time..."
She originally wanted to say, don't take a cold shower next time.
But when the words came to my lips, I realized something was wrong.
She forced herself to hold it back.
The man raised his eyes slightly, "Next time?"
Xu Jialan didn't say anything.
Shen Xichuan said lazily, “Will you let me take a cold shower next time?”
Xu Jialan: “…”
Her whole face flushed as she leaned in his arms.
Even my ears are burning.
He's really becoming more and more... rude in his speech.
Without hearing her answer, Shen Xichuan pressed her waist and measured her profile slightly.
I saw a faint layer of red on the tip of my ear.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Suddenly he asked, "Wife, when can I... stop taking cold showers?"
The ending tone is slightly rising.
Xu Jialan: “…”
She doesn't know.
Shen Xichuan didn’t seem to want to let her go, “Huh?”
He applied a little force to his palm and held her waist tightly.
After a moment, Xu Jialan spoke slowly, "I don't know."
Shen Xichuan was not surprised by this answer.
"I don't know."
He hummed, "Then next time, I'll just have to continue taking cold showers."
Xu Jialan: “…”
Her face was so hot that she said angrily in a delicate voice, “Shen Xichuan, don’t say anything more.”
"Yes, wife."
Shen Xichuan smiled softly and responded very obediently.
Fortunately, no one in the team saw this scene.
Otherwise, Captain Shen’s wisdom would probably be lost.
Who would have thought that Shen Xichuan would be so well-behaved at home.
Or maybe, he would only be so well-behaved in front of Xu Jialan.
Xu Jialan was too lazy to respond to him.
I just pretended to be dead in his arms.
Shen Xichuan held her obediently for a long time before letting go.
"alright."
He raised his hand and touched her head. "You can go and post the files now. Don't keep Miss An waiting too long."
There seems to be a hidden meaning in his words.
Xu Jialan: “…”
He knew she was lying to him.
She felt guilty and didn't dare to look at the man any more. She hummed and said, "Then I'll get busy first."
After saying that, he fled the living room in a panic.
The study door was closed from the inside.
Shen Xichuan glanced over there, his lips curled slightly.
That look was a mixture of helplessness and doting.
He seemed to have thought of something.
Turned on the phone.
I opened Weibo and looked at the trending searches.
Just as Shen Yankai said, everything has been taken care of.
No one mentions Xu Jialan on the Internet anymore.
His tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.
Although this time, the Shen Group did not show up.
But everyone in this circle is very smart.
After the last charity dinner and this incident, it can be seen that Xu Jialan has a certain status in the Shen family.
Or maybe he saw that the eyes of Shen Xichuan, the second young master of the Shen family, were his newlywed wife.
Now, many people are thinking about how to please Mrs. Shen Er.
Mr. Liang also knew about this online farce that came and went quickly.
He learned this from Gu Ziwei.
When he heard what Ye Shuman said, his face was filled with rage.
"What a jerk!"
