Chapter 293: Chapter 209 I Allow You to Be More Arrogant_2

The anger in her heart instantly dissipated like smoke, she tightened her hand that was lying across his waist, and then fell back into a deep sleep.

When Shen Hanxiu woke her up, it was already past eight o’clock, and he had gone out to buy breakfast.

But she still felt like she hadn’t gotten enough sleep and looked very tired, probably because she had too many strange dreams last night that prevented her brain from resting well.

Arriving at the office, Su Nian was also dozy. Before Shen Hanxiu got out of the car, he asked her, “Caught a cold?”

Su Nian, remembering he didn’t agree to Jin Qiu’s request, got angry. She huffed and turned her head, then opened the car door, slipped into the president’s private elevator, and closed the door without waiting for him.

Shen Hanxiu just stood by the elevator door with an unhurried demeanor.

Seeing President Shen blocked outside the elevator, the onlookers at the scene started to gossip.

“President Shen and his wife must have had an argument, right?”

“The more little couples quarrel, the closer they become.”

“Yeah, look how gentle President Shen is. He doesn’t show any temper in front of his wife; even being rejected outside the elevator he’s not angry.”

“His wife is his little sun. Look, ever since his wife got closer to him, President Shen’s face has been looking so much better!”

“Right? Right? The other day when you saw President Shen, his complexion was like he was about to kill someone at any moment; the whole company was walking on eggshells.”

“Haha, turns out even the most powerful men turn into cute little boys when it comes to love!”

The “cute little boy” went upstairs and headed straight to the HR department.

The HR staff, who were still brewing coffee, were startled and quickly came up to inquire: “President Shen, do you have any instructions?”

“Let’s hire a few more people for the Advertising and Promotion Department.”

The staff member reminded him: “Promotion Department? We’ve already done hiring there!”

Shen Hanxiu casually said: “Just do it, and show me the resumes from the last interviews.”

The staff didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately rummaged through the documents.

Shen Hanxiu opened the organized resume folder, simply looking for the “Qiuqiu” that woman had mentioned; he remembered her name was Li Jinqiu.

Thus, he found the page with her information and said: “This one is not bad, call her and have her start work as soon as possible.”

“…Okay, how many people in total should we hire?”

Shen Hanxiu, turning away, said: “Just randomly hire another two.”

Su Nian arrived at her office and didn’t even have the time to be angry; as soon as she sat down, she started working non-stop.

She didn’t even have time to eat lunch.

Perhaps because she had not rested properly the night before, coupled with such overwhelming work, she felt dizzy and foggy all day long.

In the evening, several departments had to work overtime, including the finance department. When Shen Hanxiu was leaving work and passed by the finance department, seeing the women still buried in work, he stepped in.

Now that their relationship was known throughout the company, the department’s staff didn’t react as strongly as before; they could only secretly envy why that woman wasn’t themselves.

Su Nian hadn’t noticed the man’s approach. “You get off work at seven; I happen to have a dinner to attend. I’ll take the kid out for a meal, that’s fine.”

It was only then that Su Nian looked up at him, giving him an annoyed glance; she really wasn’t in the mood to try to please him now.

“I’m leaving right now, remember to have dinner.”

Su Nian did not respond, and after he was far away, Wei Lan asked: “Sister Niannian, did you have an argument with Mr. Shen?”

“No, I don’t have time to argue with him.”

“Why do you ignore Mr. Shen then?”

Su Nian made up a random excuse: “It’s that time of the month; I’m irritable.”

“Tsks, women are so terrifying.”

Su Nian glanced at her, “You say that as if you’re not a woman!”

“Hehe, Sister Niannian, you’ll be fighting alone tonight. I’ve taken a week off; I’m getting married at the beginning of the month, and I’ll hand you the wedding invitation in a few days!”

“You’re so lucky! Didn’t you say you were planning for the end of the year?”

Wei Lan smiled embarrassingly: “When you meet the right person, being together is just a matter of time, hehe, I want to get married earlier so I can have a little Xiao Bao to play with.”

After a bit of small talk and burying themselves back in work, meals had already been forgotten.

At seven in the evening, Shen Hanxiu came to the office with the child. Su Nian couldn’t wait to go home and sleep, but the whole department was still working overtime; she couldn’t take advantage of Shen Hanxiu’s position to get any privilege—she had to set an example and keep the entire department united.

So, she begrudgingly worked overtime with everyone until ten at night before leaving.

Her stomach was hurting in waves.

Luckily, her considerate daughter had brought her a fried chicken leg.

Tonight, Su Nian didn’t go to find Shen Hanxiu again. After bathing her child, she also went to bed early.

Seeing that she hadn’t come over for a long time, Shen Hanxiu sent a message asking: “Are you really angry?”

There was no reply from the other side for a long time; she probably had fallen asleep already, being so tired from the workload these couple of days.

This woman seemed lazy, but was actually very responsible when it came to work, and would never slack off. You can imagine how hard these past two days have been for her.

Shen Hanxiu didn’t send her any more messages and dismissed the idea of going to find her or calling her, letting her rest well.

During the night, Su Nian slept soundly. The next day when she woke up, it was past eight o’clock again. Although she wouldn’t have to worry about being late with Shen Hanxiu there, Su Nian still didn’t want to use that “privilege.”

She rushed and finished breakfast, Shen Hanxiu dropped off the child, and driving her small Audi, she made it just in time to clock in at 8:40.

After settling into her seat, Su Nian let out a sigh of relief. She glanced at Wei Lan’s seat, and remembering that she wouldn’t be coming in these days, she felt quite bored.

She took out her phone to check and found two messages, one of which was sent by Shen Hanxiu.

So he was still concerned whether she was angry or not; she felt a warm feeling in her heart. Actually, she was just tired.

Seeing the next message warmed Su Nian’s heart even more. Last night, Jin Qiu sent a text saying: My dear Nian’nian![color][tempt] You succeeded, right?! Sheng Han called me to start work tomorrow! Emma, I’m so happy!

And then followed by a long string of kisses.

Su Nian smiled while looking at the message, thinking that he was still the same as before; he took all the words she said to heart…
