Shang Zeyan stayed up for several consecutive nights.
During the day, he would spend his time with Shen Zhiyi without restraint, and at night he would work hard in front of the computer.
My insomnia had already been cured, but I still don't get much sleep.
Shen Zhiyi was worried about his health.
After much persuasion, I finally convinced him to return to a normal routine and agree to go to the company the next day.
"Baby, are you really not coming with me?"
Shang Zeyan held her waist and lingered on her lips.
"I won't be able to kiss you for several hours." He looked aggrieved. "Won't the baby miss me?"
Shen Zhiyi tied her silk scarf around his wrist.
Soothe him like you would a child.
“Wearing this, it has my scent on it.”
"If you miss me, just take a sniff."
She touched his face tenderly, "If I go with you, will you still be able to concentrate on your work?"
"I'll have to work overtime again tonight."
Shang Zeyan lowered his head and sniffed, then buried his head in her neck and sighed deeply, "I really want to die on top of you..."
Shen Zhiyi blushed.
"Don't talk about this..."
She shook the GPS tracker on her wrist. "I'm wearing this. If you miss me, you can always know where I am."
"Now you can rest assured, right?"
Shang Zeyan had never been treated so considerately before. While feeling warm inside, he also felt a pang of guilt.
He hugged Shen Zhiyi.
"I'm sorry, baby. Is it hard being with me?"
He didn't want it to be like this either.
But those insecurities, those anxieties about being separated from her, gnawed at his heart like ants.
He knew he was sick.
He contracted a disease that would kill him if he didn't have a calm mind.
Shen Zhiyi shook her head.
"It's not hard work."
"You love me so much, how could I possibly suffer?"
She tiptoed and kissed Shang Zeyan's lips. "It's just that it'll be a little tiring at night... Could you... not tease me so much..."
She turned her head away, her face flushed.
But Shang Zeyan changed his mind.
"Baby, are you trying to hook me?" His eyes were sticky, and her words made his whole body burn. "I'll do whatever you say."
"This is the only thing that won't do."
He pressed down on the back of Shen Zhiyi's neck, pulling her into his arms, his low, husky voice filled with intense longing.
"I've already been very lenient with you, huh?"
“Baby, you don’t know how hard I’ve been holding back. Tonight, I’m going to punish you…” he whispered in her ear.
Shen Zhiyi was so embarrassed that her whole body went limp.
"You, you should go to the company right away."
She pushed his face away.
Shang Zeyan chuckled softly, kissed her hard on the lips, and then released her.
I'll deal with you tonight.
...
Not long after Shang Zeyan left, Chi Yanping arrived at the villa.
Upon seeing Shen Zhiyi, he smiled and came up to take her hand.
It was as if the disagreements at the business party had never happened.
"Zhiyi, I never imagined we would be so destined to become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
"You know Zeyan, he never interacts with us relatives. Now that you're the wife of the CEO of a business, you'll be responsible for maintaining all these relationships, both inside and outside the company."
"Let's get along well."
"Let bygones be bygones."
What do you say, okay?
Shen Zhiyi lowered her eyes, smiling but saying nothing.
Chi Yanping's smile froze for a moment.
I thought to myself.
This Shen family's daughter is truly a wooden beauty.
He had humbled himself so much to beg for reconciliation, but she hadn't said a word.
He's just like that ingrate Shang Zeyan.
They completely disregarded her, their mother-in-law!
Remembering the purpose of her visit, a smile returned to her face.
"I've made plans for afternoon tea."
"How about my daughter-in-law and I go out for a stroll today?"
"Now that I'm a mother-in-law, it would be really inappropriate not to give her a gift. Whatever you like today, I'll pay for it."
"Zhiyi, I'll be heartbroken if you refuse."
Her brow furrowed.
She stared at Shen Zhiyi with a hint of reproach.
Shen Zhiyi casually raised her eyes, met her gaze, and after a long while, chuckled softly.
"OK."
This could be an opportunity to completely cure Shang Zeyan.
Chi Yanping took Shen Zhiyi to a shopping mall.
Halfway through afternoon tea, he excused himself to go to the restroom, leaving Shen Zhiyi alone in the restaurant.
Ji's father hid in the shadows.
Shen Zhiyi was almost stunned by what she saw.
In reality, her beauty is far more striking than in photos.
He was starting to get worried.
Wouldn't kidnapping someone like that attract too much attention?
But then he thought of what Ji Xiaolian had said to him, and the real money that had been deposited into his bank account.
He hardened his heart and walked straight towards her.
...
Shang Group.
Before the meeting, Shang Zeyan glanced at the location.
I discovered that Shen Zhiyi was in the business world.
A doting smile spread across his face as he lowered his head and kissed the silk scarf on his wrist.
A faint scent of gardenias wafted into my nostrils.
He wondered what his beloved baby would buy.
Shang Zeyan picked up the phone and instructed his secretary.
"Notify all our shopping malls, the one on Fuguang Road, that my wife has gone shopping."
The secretary gripped the receiver, her lips twitching slightly.
"Okay, Mr. Shang."
"We must make them give their all and provide the best shopping experience for Madam."
Shang Zeyan hung up the phone with satisfaction.
