Even the most reasonable man has his unreasonable moments.
He dared not do anything substantial to her, but he had plenty of ways to satisfy his desires.
Xiang Nanzhi felt she had spoiled him too much. What kind of sins had she committed? What a decent man he was, and now he had become like this!
The bus was full of passengers, as well as some locals heading to Latour. Xiang Nanzhi and Shen Shixun sat in a three-seater bench, with the two of them sitting together and the other seat empty.
Xiang Nanzhi had no choice but to lie down, letting Shen Shixun sit in the seat near the aisle, while she rested her head on her lap and her feet near the window, lying down in the seat, barely able to lie still.
The sunlight shone on her round little feet.
The toenails are a healthy, transparent color with a little bit of lunulae. The soles of the feet are free of calluses and are soft and cottony.
Women in the city are prone to feeling cold, so Shen Shixun put a pair of cotton socks on her while she was asleep.
Her eyes were closed, and she would occasionally turn over, her face facing him.
Shen Shixun involuntarily tensed up again, patting the woman's head with his large hand and smiling helplessly.
She is on my body, and she is in my heart; she fills my entire being.
His Zhizhi is so beautiful, beautiful in every way.
She looks good with her eyes open and with her eyes closed; her face is beautiful, her hands are beautiful, her hair is beautiful, and her feet are adorable.
My whole body felt limp and boneless...
Such a woman is like a soft nail driven into a man's body, leaving him unable to move, only able to cherish and love her.
He doesn't know how much his hands can give her, but he will do his best.
Arriving at Latour Airport felt like an eternity. I drank some glucose and felt completely disoriented.
Everyone was busy, people were coming and going, their steps hurried.
Some were inhaling oxygen, some were drinking water, some were sleeping, and some were resting.
Xiang Nanzhi was no different from them, leaning against the man's chest, "Shen Shixun, I'm so tired, give me a massage."
She had never experienced any suffering before, but she had experienced it all with Shen Shixun.
She slept almost the entire way from Latour Airport to the Old City. Only when the plane arrived in the Old City did she feel a huge sense of relief and instantly feel like she had been fully recharged.
She walked out of the airport and saw a neatly manicured, lush green artificial lawn.
Xiang Nanzhi took a deep breath and let out a clear, bell-like laugh.
"This is the kind of place where you can breathe the air freely."
You don't have to worry about lack of oxygen, and you don't have to keep walking and walking as if there's no end in sight.
Xiang Nanzhi hailed a taxi at random and subconsciously gave them the Xiang family's address.
She had to go home, and go home immediately.
Without prior notice, the house was quiet. The nanny was working, and the gardener was designing the garden. Xiang Nanzhi suddenly had the idea to move two cherry trees, which added new workload to the gardener's design.
When Xiang Nanzhi was away, Ma Xiaorong was in charge of tidying up her studio and her house.
Old Ma saw the people returning from afar and hurriedly greeted them, "Miss, son-in-law."
Xiang Nanzhi was several shades darker, his face was flushed from the high altitude, and his clothes were not very appropriate. In short, he looked a bit disheveled.
"Where's Xiaorong? Is she home?"
"Here I am."
"Go ahead and do your work. I'm going back to my room with Shen Shixun to sleep."
Everyone was busy. Xiang Nanzhi led Shen Shixun through the garden of his house. Many of the blue hydrangeas that had bloomed earlier had withered. The ancient city was about to enter autumn, but the weather was still hot.
He glanced back at Old Ma and said, "The hydrangeas aren't looking good anymore. Let's get some flowers that bloom well in autumn. See which varieties are suitable for planting in this yard and give me a few varieties."
"good."
Xiang Nanzhi nodded and went upstairs hand in hand with Shen Shixun.
"Miss, you're back!"
Ma Xiaorong saw her as soon as she stepped down. "Am I dreaming?"
"You're not dreaming. I want to sleep. Make me some bird's nest soup."
After saying that, he glanced at Shen Shixun again, "What do you want to eat?"
"Need not."
"You keep cooking. I'll eat when I wake up later. Don't wake me. Make a reservation for the hot springs, spa, and prenatal yoga. I'll be going tonight."
"Okay, understood."
Judging from her skin condition, she must have been taking care of her skin for several days in a row.
Saigon is such a torturous place.
Every time you go, you're doomed.
Xiang Nanzhi returned to her bed and fell asleep quickly, but Shen Shixun couldn't sleep.
After spending several days in Saigon, he promised Xiang Ciyuan and Zhang Yandong that before leaving the project completely, he would not only hand over his work clearly, but also have a meal with them.
When he returned to the construction site, neither of them were there, but some workers and planners were. Shen Shixun hadn't told his subordinates that he was leaving the project, and everyone still recognized Director Shen.
After arranging some tasks and completing the work, Shen Shixun returned to his office to organize the documents. He heard the phone in the next office ringing continuously, guessing that his assistant was out busy and hadn't answered it in time.
He answered the call for her, "Mr. Xiang, why did you leave so early yesterday?"
A woman's voice, so affectedly sweet it was almost grating.
"President Xiang is not here."
After finishing his sentence, Shen Shixun immediately hung up the phone and continued working until evening.
When Xiang Nanzhi woke up and didn't see him, he learned that he had gone to the project site again.
The woman, dressed in her pajamas, held a bowl of bird's nest soup and gazed at her garden in disbelief. "Shen Shixun, don't you need to sleep?"
"I'm not tired, and I'm not sleepy."
"Where do you get the energy? Didn't we agree to go to the hot springs together?"
Yes, he also promised to go to the hot springs with her, which is troublesome.
Shen Shixun called Zhang Yandong and said, "I'm not coming tonight."
It was originally planned, but when Zhang Yandong learned that he had returned to the project, he contacted him to get together tonight. Following his suggestion, they also invited Yang He over, intending to test him out and see if Yang He had any real skills.
"It's not right for you to mess things up now, is it?"
"I really have something to do. Maybe next time, or another day."
Zhang Yandong frowned. "Tell me, what do you have that's more important than your brother?"
“My wife…” Shen Shixun said calmly, “I’m going to accompany her to the hot springs.”
——
Xiang Ciyuan was unhappy about being stood up at the last minute, but he was a playful person and had other forms of entertainment, so he didn't fuss over such trivial matters.
But Yang He—
He was so startled when Mr. Zhang called to invite him to dinner that evening that he rented a suit and put on a white shirt, thinking that he should be presentable when having dinner with Mr. Zhang, as it was a great honor for him.
The sudden cancellation made him panic, thinking he had done something wrong.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"fine."
"Dad looks so handsome in a suit."
Yang He smiled and patted Shiqi's head. "Dad's suit is rented. When Dad has money in the future, he can wear a suit every day."
