It was just a kiss, he didn't do anything else, right? It shouldn't have scared this little woman, should it?
Jiang Susu came to her senses and saw Shang Yanxing just coming out of the bathroom. She shook her head and said, "No...nothing."
It was just a kiss; she wouldn't be scared.
She just found it a bit strange and didn't understand why Shang Yanxing was being so patient.
Is she really sick, or is there a problem with that area?
"It's getting late, Madam should go to bed early too." Shang Yanxing didn't notice anything unusual about Jiang Susu.
She simply nodded and hummed in agreement.
Then Shang Yanxing turned off the light, and the two of them went to sleep.
Jiang Susu didn't think much of it and turned her back to Shang Yanxing before falling asleep.
The next morning, while they were having breakfast together, Shang Yanxing suddenly asked, "Does Madam have time today?"
Jiang Susu took a bite of her toast, nodded, and said, "Yeah, nothing else today, I have time. What's up? Is there something you need?"
Judging from Shang Yanxing's expression, it seemed that he had something to tell her.
"There are some things at the company, and my secretary is on sick leave, so I was wondering if you could come to the company today to help me out."
If this young woman were willing to work at his company, he would be even more motivated to go to work.
"A company? How could I possibly be qualified to be your company's secretary? I'm afraid I'd just be a hindrance." She'd never worked as a secretary before.
"It's alright, I can guide you, Madam, and the work won't be too complicated. Besides, I'm here for you, Madam. What are you worried about?"
Work-related matters are minor; he just wants this woman to come to the company and keep him company.
Even just being by his side makes him feel happy.
"But I embarrassed you in front of your employees last night, how can I possibly go to your company?" If I go, won't they recognize me?
She was already embarrassed to see them, so she couldn't very well rush up to deliver it herself, could she?
"Madam didn't do anything to me last night. It was just normal interaction between husband and wife, nothing shameful, so Madam doesn't need to be afraid. Besides, being my secretary only requires you to help me, you don't need to come into contact with anyone else. Anyway, Madam will miss me at home, so why not stay by my side?"
Shang Yanxing said so much, but Jiang Susu was particularly impressed by the last sentence.
"Who would miss you? How did you become so narcissistic?"
Shang Yanxing would never have said such things before, but now he's become much more narcissistic.
“Yes, I miss you, Madam. So, would you like to come to the company with me? I can’t concentrate on my work without you by my side.” Shang Yanxing changed his tune, hoping Jiang Susu would agree.
"I'm afraid if I go, you won't be able to concentrate on your work." She couldn't bear the responsibility if her presence caused her to miss work.
"How could that be? I only feel safe when my wife is by my side, and it won't interfere with my work at all."
Jiang Susu pursed her lips slightly, but did not speak.
"Does Madam really not agree to my request? Can you really bear to watch me go to work alone? Aren't you afraid that I'll fall ill from missing you so much?"
When Shang Yanxing realized he couldn't reason with Jiang Susu, he started playing the victim.
"Alright, then I'll go to the company with you today." In the end, Jiang Susu couldn't resist Shang Yanxing's persistent pleading and agreed.
What can she do if this man is so clingy?
After they finished breakfast, the two went to the company together.
Shang Yanxing took Jiang Susu directly to the president's office via the private elevator.
Once inside the office, Jiang Susu looked somewhat bewildered. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"No need for now, Madam, please sit on the sofa. I will ask for your help if needed."
He simply wanted this woman to stay with him; he never intended to ask her for any help.
Jiang Susu nodded and then sat down on the sofa.
Perhaps because it was her first time visiting this place, Jiang Susu seemed a little reserved.
Shang Yanxing could also tell that the young woman was somewhat uncomfortable.
He then said, "If you feel bored, Madam, you can go inside and find some books to read."
"good."
Jiang Susu walked inside and saw a bookshelf, which probably contained books that Shang Yanxing usually liked to read.
Most of them were famous works, but she wasn't interested in them at all.
In an inconspicuous little corner, Jiang Susu saw a somewhat out-of-place novel called "Ten Thousand Heartbeats," which piqued her interest.
So in the end she took the book.
However, to her surprise, there were romance novels on Shang Yanxing's bookshelf, which broadened her horizons.
Jiang Susu came out with a book, then sat on the sofa and began to read.
"Ten Thousand Heartbeats" is a campus romance novel, and also a story about unrequited love.
The female lead has a crush on the male lead; both are top students with excellent grades.
Jiang Susu watched intently, occasionally covering her mouth and laughing.
This caught Shang Yanxing's attention. Seeing how excited this young woman was, he was very curious about what book she was reading.
The books on his bookshelf are mostly classics. How can this little woman be so engrossed in reading them?
Shang Yanxing coughed twice, trying to get Jiang Susu's attention, but Jiang Susu didn't react at all, she was engrossed in watching.
"What book is Madam reading? She seems quite engrossed in it."
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Jiang Susu finally raised her head.
"Oh, it's a romance novel, a campus romance with unrequited love, it's quite good."
Anyway, she thought the story was pretty good.
"Is it really that beautiful? Why are you enjoying it so much, Madam?" He had been observing this young woman for a long time, but she hadn't noticed him staring at her at all.
"You have no idea how good the male lead is at flirting, and he's a college student too, which is really exciting to watch."
She never had a relationship during college, which is why she envies others who do.
"Oh? How good at flirting? Tell me, madam." He was very curious to know what a man who could flirt was like.
Jiang Susu took the book and began to read it aloud in a serious tone, "Little friend, let me teach you how to date."
He turned the page and continued reading, "What's there to be shy about, little one? Don't you know how to kiss? Let your big brother teach you."
"Little kid, you're so clumsy! You can't even take off your clothes? Do you need your older brother to teach you?"
Upon hearing Jiang Susu recite these lines from the male lead, Shang Yanxing couldn't sit still any longer.
Shang Yan walked up to Jiang Susu and took the book from her hand. "Ten Thousand Heartbeats?"
