Little Wife's Diary: My Husband is My Boss!
Chapter 262: Compromise

Chapter 262: Compromise

From the phone, Wei Zheming heard the vague words of a girl complaining and heard the woman say, "Xiao Wei ah, Aunty has to go now, so let’s talk another time."

"Okay," he said before ending the call.

Looking back at Xiao Wu, Wei Zheming sighed. After her father died in the line of duty, her mother remarried and has another family now. There was no mother in her life, so it’s no wonder she grew up like a tomboy. Still, it’s not bad. This way, she won’t be snatched away by a stinky man.

Shaking his head to dispel the thought, he opened his laptop. There was still plenty of work to be done waiting for him.

At the same time, Feng Zhexuan was unpacking the takeout in the kitchen when Yan Yuling emerged from the bedroom. She had taken a hot bath and recovered from her earlier fright.

Seeing her husband busy in the kitchen, she felt like the most blessed woman in the world. With a smile, she walked over and hugged him from behind.

Feeling his wife’s soft body against his back, Feng Zhexuan paused briefly before resuming his task of plating the food.

"What’s wrong? Are you still feeling scared?" he asked gently.

Yan Yuling shook her head and replied, "I just missed you."

Hearing this, Feng Zhexuan turned to face his wife, kissed her forehead, and said, "I missed you too, but you need to eat. It’s already dinnertime, and you have only had breakfast today."

Yan Yuling glanced at the food and asked, "Husband, did you order takeout?"

Feng Zhexuan nodded and said, "Mhmm, Aunt Xing had an emergency at home, so she couldn’t come to cook. I ordered these dishes from your favorite restaurant."

"Thank you, Husband," Yan Yuling said as she stood on her tiptoes to kiss him.

"Let’s eat before the food turns cold," he smiled and kissed her forehead.

Both of them brought the dishes to the dining table and started to eat. While eating, Feng Zhexuan glanced at his wife and said, "Wife, I have hired a new CEO for Yan Corporation. He will meet you at the office tomorrow."

Yan Yuling looked at him in surprise when she heard this and asked, "Husband, I haven’t received any calls from the shareholders. Are you sure it’s okay to bring someone in like this?"

"It’s fine. They contacted Assistant Wei this afternoon and agreed to my terms. Starting tomorrow, you will be the chairman of Yan Corporation. After the shareholder meeting, there will be a press conference to announce it," Feng Zhexuan said calmly.

"I also hired an assistant for you. She will handle all company matters and report to you directly," he added.

Hearing her husband’s arrangements, Yan Yuling wasn’t sure whether to feel happy or upset. He had made all these decisions without consulting her.

Noticing her silence, Feng Zhexuan hesitated before asking, "Wife, why are you so silent? Are you angry?"

Yan Yuling sighed after a moment and said, "Husband, can you discuss things with me before making decisions in the future? I may be your wife, but I have my own thoughts and opinions. You can’t decide everything for me."

Feng Zhexuan lowered his gaze and thought for a while. When he looked at her again, he nodded and said sincerely, "Wife, it’s my fault for not considering your feelings and opinions. I’m sorry."

Hearing his apology, Yan Yuling felt a pang of guilt. She held his hand and said, "Just don’t do it again. We are husband and wife, we should make decisions together. I don’t want to be a burden to you."

Relieved by her softened tone, Feng Zhexuan quickly agreed, "Okay, I will discuss everything with you before making decisions in the future."

"Thank you, Husband," she said with a smile.

"Then, what should we do with the CEO and assistant?" Feng Zhexuan asked while watching her expression.

"Since you have already hired them, let them work. I do need an assistant, and the company needs a capable CEO. I trust your judgment," she replied with a smile.

Feng Zhexuan smiled in return and added, "The assistant’s salary will be paid by me since she will be your personal assistant rather than the company’s."

"Mn, I will listen to you," Yan Yuling said with a nod.

After dinner, the couple retired to their bedroom, where they enjoyed some intimate time before finally falling asleep around midnight.

Early the next morning, Yan Yuling woke up with a sore body as the alarm went off. She glanced at the empty spot beside her and yawned.

Just as she was about to drift back to sleep, Feng Zhexuan emerged from the bathroom. With a towel wrapped around his strong waist, he wiped his wet hair. Water droplets sliding down his strong muscles as he looked at the bed. Noticing his wife still sleeping, he smiled and walked over.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he leaned down, kissed her lips, and whispered, "Wife, it’s time to wake up, or you will be late."

Yan Yuling let out a soft hum but kept her eyes closed. Unlike her energized husband, she felt utterly drained.

"Let me sleep for another five minutes," she murmured.

Seeing her so exhausted, Feng Zhexuan kissed her again and said, "Okay, five more minutes."

Afterward, he went to the walk-in closet to change. When he returned, eight minutes had passed, and his wife was still sleeping. After some hesitation, he decided to let her rest today and didn’t disturb her sleep anymore.

Taking his bag, he left the room. As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, Aunt Xing greeted him with a smile, "Good morning, Sir. Breakfast is ready."

"Good morning, Aunt Xing," he replied with a smile.

"Please help me prepare chicken soup for my wife and let her sleep a bit longer."

Noticing the red marks on his neck, Aunt Xing smiled knowingly and nodded, "I understand, Sir. I will also prepare some red date porridge for Madam."

"Thank you," Feng Zhexuan said.
