"Alright, then my lady, stay obediently in my arms." He prepared to carry her while he worked.
"Or, I'll just move a small chair next to you and keep you company. I'm afraid that if I do that, I'll interfere with your work."
How can Shang Yanxing work properly while holding her like this?
"No need, it's too cold sitting on the chair. It'll be warmer in my arms. The baby can't get cold right now, so it's better for him to stay in my arms."
He wasn't about to let this little woman, who had come to him of her own accord, get away with it.
Jiang Susu was speechless for a moment, so she could only stay obediently.
She glanced at the computer, feeling a little bored, then looked up at Shang Yanxing's jawline, so perfect that she couldn't look away for a moment.
And that alluring Adam's apple was also attracting her.
Jiang Susu swallowed hard; she found the man to be quite handsome.
Because she felt that Shang Yanxing was focused on his work, Jiang Susu became quite bold, watching him without even blinking.
However, Shang Yanxing already knew about Jiang Susu's little tricks.
As Shang Yanxing lowered his head, he met Jiang Susu's gaze.
Jiang Susu hurriedly looked away and leaned closer to Shang Yanxing's arms.
Was the baby peeking at me just now?
"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense," Jiang Susu denied.
“I’m your husband. The baby doesn’t need to peek. He can look at me openly. Or, if you want to take advantage of me, that’s fine too.”
That little woman's eyes just now seemed to want to devour him. If he didn't bend down and catch her red-handed, she'd be drooling in no time, wouldn't she?
He now realized that this little woman was also lustful.
"Shang Yanxing, can't you just focus on your work?" Why do you have to worry about her so much?
"Alright, I'll focus on my work and won't disturb Madam's peeping anymore," Shang Yanxing said seriously.
Jiang Susu: "..."
She wasn't spying; she was just curious, so she took a look.
This man has taken advantage of her so much all the time, what's wrong with her checking up on him? She won't lose out.
"Boom!" Thunder ripped through the sky, and a bolt of lightning illuminated the night.
The sound of rain outside grew louder and louder.
Jiang Susu was so frightened that she hid in Shang Yanxing's arms and didn't move.
"Is the baby afraid of thunder?" He actually already knew that Jiang Susu was afraid of thunder, which was why she came to the study to find him today.
Otherwise, she would have fallen asleep long ago.
"No... I'm not afraid." Jiang Susu's voice trembled slightly, and even her body shook a little, but she still stubbornly insisted.
"Are you really not afraid? Then why are you hiding, baby?" Shang Yanxing said, trying to help Jiang Susu sit up.
But Jiang Susu hid and refused to come out, saying, "I...I'm scared, I'm scared, let me lean on you for a while."
She just saw lightning, how could she not be afraid?
Upon hearing Jiang Susu's words, Shang Yanxing stopped what he was doing.
"If you're scared, baby, then hold me."
The little woman in his arms, not yet born, still buried her head in his chest.
"If you're ever afraid of thunder, come to me. I'll protect you from now on, okay?"
Shang Yanxing wanted Jiang Susu to confront her fears and to bravely speak them out.
This could also let him know that this little woman needs his protection.
Jiang Susu nodded. "Okay, I understand."
After a long while, the thunder outside gradually subsided, and Jiang Susu finally poked her out.
She looked out the window; the rain outside seemed to have lessened considerably.
Shang Yanxing stopped looking at Jiang Susu and kept his eyes on the computer.
Only when the little woman in his arms began to breathe steadily did Shang Yanxing look down at Jiang Susu in his arms.
Shang Yanxing stopped working, closed his laptop, and then carried Jiang Susu back to his room.
Perhaps because the thunder had startled Jiang Susu, as soon as Shang Yanxing lay down on the bed, Jiang Susu snuggled into his arms.
Shang Yanxing looked at the little woman who had snuggled into his arms and smiled as he patted her head.
He finally had this day. He no longer had to envy others; the girl in his arms was the one he loved.
Jiang Susu smacked her lips a few times, found a comfortable position, and slept soundly in Shang Yanxing's arms.
Shang Yanxing turned off the light, held the little woman in his arms, and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Susu often wanted to turn over, but Shang Yanxing's hands could only hold her, so she could only lean on his chest.
For the entire night, Shang Yanxing never let go of Jiang Susu's hand, as if if he let go, Jiang Susu would immediately disappear.
Even the next morning, Shang Yanxing remained in the same position, posing with Jiang Susu.
When Jiang Susu woke up, she found herself in Shang Yanxing's arms.
She recalled that last night, no wonder she couldn't even turn over.
So it was all because of this man.
While Shang Yanxing was still asleep, Jiang Susu behaved herself and didn't move around, afraid that she might accidentally wake him up.
When Shang Yanxing woke up, he saw Jiang Susu staring at him.
Seeing Shang Yanxing open his eyes, Jiang Susu hurriedly looked away.
"When did Madam wake up?" Shang Yanxing asked.
"It's been a while."
Shang Yanxing nodded and said in a serious tone, "Oh, I was peeking for a while."
Jiang Susu looked up at the shameless man in front of her. "Shang Yanxing, what are you saying? You were the one who was holding me and wouldn't let go. I didn't move because I was afraid of waking you up. Don't talk nonsense, okay?"
What do you mean by "spying on him for a while"?
"Oh, well, it's because you're worried about me, Madam. I misunderstood you just now."
"That's more like it. I was wondering why I had trouble turning over last night and why I felt uncomfortable while sleeping. Turns out it was because you were holding me like this the whole time."
She sleeps in a rather casual position, and her sleeping posture isn't very attractive.
The way Shang Yanxing held her last night was as if he had restrained her nature.
"Maybe it's because I feel insecure, so I want to hold the baby like this to sleep. But if the baby doesn't like it, I won't hold the baby like this anymore."
Hearing the words "I feel insecure," Jiang Susu's heart softened again.
"Well... it's not that I can't hold you, I'll get used to it eventually."
I owe this man so much, and I promised to make it up to him. I can't go back on my word now, can I?
Moreover, this wasn't an excessive request, so Jiang Susu couldn't bear to refuse Shang Yanxing.
"Does my baby want me to hold him/her? But just now the baby said it was uncomfortable."
"It's alright, I'm not very uncomfortable, I feel quite good." She leaned against Shang Yanxing's chest, actually feeling quite safe.
Since this would make the man feel safe, she decided to grant Shang Yanxing's request.
Shang Yanxing said happily, "Then thank you, baby."
