Chapter 292: Chapter 209: I Allow You to Be More Presumptuous

Shen Hanxiu looked at her unabashed demeanor, his hand on her leg, lifting her up slightly: “Su Nian, you’ve changed.” Where did the old her get such courage to tease him?

Su Nian’s face turned slightly red, but what she said was unabashed: “Then do you like the way I am now?”

Shen Hanxiu caught her little hand that was messing around on his chest, his voice hoarse: “I permit you to be even bolder.”

Su Nian chuckled softly, smelling the scent on him, staring into his sharp eyes, quickly leaned in and pecked lightly on his thin lips.

Shen Hanxiu was about to retaliate when the office door was suddenly pushed open.

Yang Zichen paused as he saw the scene in front of the desk, then pushed his glasses and cleared his throat.

Embarrassed, Su Nian got off him, “About the recruitment thing…”

Before Su Nian could finish, Shen Hanxiu said, “Let’s talk about it tonight.”

Su Nian pursed her lips, turned, and went downstairs, knowing that this Old Demon won’t be so easily fooled.

After Su Nian left, Shen Hanxiu looked up at Yang Zichen who had interrupted him and asked, “What is it?”

“I need to take leave, half a month, for my wedding.” Yang Zichen stated simply and clearly.

Shen Hanxiu buried his head back into the documents, “At most one week.”

“Is it paid leave?”

Shen Hanxiu raised an eyebrow: “Fine, it’s paid, but only for one week.”

Yang Zichen also nodded: “Okay then.” Then he turned and left the office.

Seeing how straightforward he was, Shen Hanxiu felt the frustration of having fallen into his scheme.

Su Nian returned to her office and buried herself in work; she had been overwhelmingly busy lately.

Lifting her eyes from a pile of numbers, she stretched lazily, feeling her mind in disarray.

“Sister Niannian, do you want to watch a movie together tonight?”

Su Nian shook her head: “You go with Special Assistant Yang, why bring me along as a third wheel?”

Wei Lan glared at her: “If you’re coming, it’s to bring Mr. Shen and your Little Treasure along, the more the merrier!”

“Forget it, tonight I have things to do with Mr. Shen.”

Wei Lan looked at her suggestively: “What things? Making babies?”

“Don’t be indecent, I’m working for Qiuqiu’s sake.”

“Oh right! Then I’ll wait for your good news.”

Su Nian nodded, feeling really worn out, and wanting nothing more than to go home for a long sleep.

Yet going home meant cooking and taking care of the family; if Shen Han wasn’t there, she would have just made do, but to please the ‘lord of the manor’, Su Nian, with her tired soul, checked the recipes, considering making something novel.

After dinner and sorting out the kid’s nightly routine, Su Nian really felt her eyes could barely stay open, dizzy and weak all over.

She had never felt like this before; was it because of today’s workload?

When she went to Shen Hanxiu, he was sitting by the bedroom window working at his desk.

Su Nian walked over and asked, “Do you have a lot to do?”

He hummed indifferently, and just as Su Nian was about to discuss Jin Qiu’s issue, he immediately said, “But it won’t affect what we need to do later, you should prepare first.”

“I’m really tired today, can you just agree? Arrange a job for Qiuqiu in the PR department.”

“I’m tired today as well, why don’t we talk about it another day when neither of us are tired?”

Su Nian was dissatisfied, genuinely feeling unwell, yet he was still behaving like this: “You can’t even help me a little, do I have to use my body in exchange?”

Hearing her change in tone, Shen Hanxiu then turned his head to look at her.

She glared at him angrily, then turned and walked to the bed, pulling up the blanket and lying down, not wanting to speak.

Shen Hanxiu closed his laptop and went over, sitting on the edge of the bed: “What? Throwing a tantrum again?”

Su Nian didn’t speak, pulling the blanket up higher.

“Sure you want to keep silent?”

Su Nian remained motionless.

Shen Hanxiu didn’t speak again, lifted his feet onto the bed, pulled back the blanket and slid in, then turned off the bedside lamp.

“Can’t handle this bit of hardship? Should I hit you or scold you?”

Su Nian still didn’t speak, but inside she was hoping he would coax her.

“Let’s sleep if you’re not going to talk.”

Saying that, he really lay down facing away from her.

Su Nian flipped the blanket and seeing the back of his head nearly made her furious, she also turned her back fiercely, not knowing that the man was also waiting for her to embrace him.

Shen Hanxiu kept this position for a long time, and there was no movement from the woman behind him. When he turned his head again, she had already cocooned herself in the blanket and fallen asleep.

Shen Hanxiu turned over, straightened the blanket, then moved her, who was sleeping at the edge of the bed, into his arms and held her before settling down to sleep…

The next day when Su Nian woke up, she was still dreaming about their cold war from the night before, but when she opened her eyes, she saw him holding her tightly.
