Zhou Yunwan was not considered short among the girls, but in front of Shen Yanli, even if she stood on tiptoe, she was only at his chin. She had a thin figure and frame, and when she was wrapped in his arms, the difference in size was particularly obvious.
Hearing Shen Yanli's teasing, Zhou Yunwan knew that he had heard everything she had just said, and her cheeks turned red, and even her ears turned red shamefully.
She knew that what Shen Yanli said made sense, and she should let go now. After all, with so many people watching, it was really embarrassing.
But……
"Just laugh it off."
After Zhou Yunwan muttered softly, she buried her head in his chest and tightened her arms again and again, as if she was afraid that he would be like a puff of mist and dissipate if she was not careful.
Her soft hair was blown by the wind, brushing against Chen Yanli's chin, like a cat's paw. He did not dodge, but his dark eyes sank.
He also wanted to continue holding her, but the current situation did not allow them to be overly intimate.
"Be good, I'll let you hug me enough later." As he spoke, he touched the back of her head soothingly, then slowly pulled her away from his arms and looked at Xiang Rulan in the crowd with sharp eyes.
...
...
The latter clenched his palms and lowered his head in embarrassment.
Zhou Yunwan noticed Shen Yanli's gaze, and also noticed the anger hidden between his brows, so she quietly pulled his sleeve and whispered, "I'm fine, she's not my opponent, there's no need to be angry with her."
Even so, Shen Yanli still felt bad.
When he thought about someone bullying his wife where he couldn't see, he wanted to tear the person into pieces.
Shen Yanli held her little hand, pursed his thin lips and said, “You have been wronged.”
Zhou Yunwan winked at him playfully: "Then will you coax me nicely later?"
Her voice was gentle, and seemed to conceal another meaning.
Shen Yanli's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and just as he was about to say something, the person in front of him changed the subject: "Have you finished your work? How many days of leave did you take?"
Shen Yanli nodded gently and said, “Three days.”
After his application was approved yesterday, he drove here before dawn today, thinking of staying as long as possible.
When she heard that he would only stay for three days, Zhou Yunwan pouted, but she could understand it. She couldn't let him stay around her all the time.
"Where are you staying tonight?"
"There's a guesthouse in the county, and it's only an hour's drive away. It won't be too late for me to check in in the afternoon."
The two chatted for a while, and the dining table over there had been cleared, which meant that the filming was about to begin.
Zhou Yunwan was reluctant to leave Shen Yanli, but there was nothing she could do as work was about to begin.
"You go first, I can wait for you in the car." Chen Yanli was also very considerate and let her and the crew go first.
Zhou Yunwan glanced at the big box in his hand. It was obviously the one she had asked him to bring to her on the phone.
"I'll go talk to Director Cheng's assistant and ask him to start filming other people's scenes first. I'll take you to where I live to put your things."
Shen Yanli came suddenly, so she had to settle him down. It wouldn’t take long to put something away anyway.
After that, Zhou Yunwan brought Shen Yanli closer to the crowd, found Cheng Jinche's assistant, explained the situation, and was about to take Shen Yanli away.
But he couldn't stand the gossip of others, and everyone wanted Zhou Yunwan to formally introduce Shen Yanli's lover.
The last time they met briefly, it was a rainy day, and most people didn’t see Shen Yanli’s appearance clearly, they just thought he was handsome, but now when they take a closer look under the sun, they realize that he is so handsome and outstanding.
"Hello everyone, nice to meet you. I am Comrade Zhou's lover, Chen Yanli."
At Zhou Yunwan's signal, Shen Yanli greeted everyone in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, and then continued: "This is the meeting gift I prepared for everyone. It's a small token of my appreciation. I hope you don't dislike it."
A meeting gift?
Everyone's eyes lit up and they all looked at the black gift bag in his hand.
After opening the gift box, there were actually two large boxes of beautifully packaged chocolates!
It looks like it's imported.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp. This is called a little thought? Do you really need to be so wealthy?
Zhou Yunwan didn't expect that the gift he prepared was so expensive, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, he was spending money to pave the way for her, and the people in the crew would take better care of her.
Chen Yanli and Zhou Yunwan distributed the chocolates to everyone except Xiang Rulan, who was so angry that she kept asking who cared, but her eyes were fixed on the chocolate box in Zhou Yunwan's hand.
She had never even seen this kind of high-end chocolate, let alone eaten it.
Cheng Jinche's assistant at the side finally had a chance to interrupt: "Comrade Zhou, does your wife want to be an actor?"
With Shen Yanli’s looks, Director Cheng would definitely be willing to give him the highest salary in the industry, which is much higher than the salary of an ordinary worker!
Zhou Yunwan refused without even thinking: "No, my husband has a job."
Zhao Tong thought of something and asked curiously, "I remember the man who came to pick you up before said that your partner seemed to be a professor?"
Xiang Rulan rolled her eyes and muttered, "How can there be such a young professor? I've never heard of him. Is this a random title?"
"You are ignorant. Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You saw it today." Zhou Yunwan rolled her eyes in annoyance. She had originally planned to keep a low profile, but since the other party didn't believe it, she didn't mind pretending.
Zhou Yunwan stared at Xiang Rulan, cleared her throat and said seriously: "My husband is a professor in the Department of Mathematics at Huaqing University, and he is also the project leader of the xx Institute..."
His words were full of pride and he held his chin high, almost as if he was talking to Xiang Rulan with his nose pointed at her.
To put it bluntly, it is the embodiment of a bully taking advantage of his master.
Shen Yanli looked at her cute little expression and added calmly, “She’s the deputy director now.”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yunwan looked at him suddenly, with doubts in her big eyes.
The arc of Shen Yanli's mouth deepened by two points, and he looked at her and said, "I haven't had time to tell you yet. I just got promoted two days ago."
"!" Zhou Yunwan was shocked at first, but was soon overwhelmed by this sudden news. She smiled so hard that her eyes curved into crescents.
She saw how hard Chen Yanli worked, getting up early and going to bed late to do research. His efforts were rewarded accordingly, and as his wife, she was also extremely happy to benefit from it.
Xiang Rulan listened to the conversation between the two and her face turned green with anger. She felt hatred and jealousy. Why was Zhou Yunwan so lucky?
