Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me

Chapter 107: V17: The heart was touched somewhere, very lightly, and very gently.

Seeing the gaze, Feng Chengjin was taken aback for a moment and quickly withdrew his hand.

Raising his hand to rub the tip of his nose, Gu Zixuan completely missed the shot, and his quick change in posture resulted in capturing another expression!

As their eyes met, everyone present was slightly bewildered.

After a long silence, Qin Nuo was the first to react, unable to hold back a "pfft."

She dared not laugh out loud upon seeing the icy look that momentarily crossed the boss’s eyes.

But within seconds, she couldn’t hold it in, and turned to swiftly escape out of the ladies’ restroom.

On the scene, when only Yu Yuanshen, Jiang Yuan, Gu Zixuan, and Feng Chengjin were left, the atmosphere became even more awkward.

Jiang Yuan had no idea what to say; after all, the earlier conversation, even if not true, was enough to make someone blush deeply.

So she kept her head down and stayed silent.

With just the three of them left, the silent awkwardness intensified.

Yu Yuanshen, with deep-set eyes, looked at Gu Zixuan, then Feng Chengjin, and then at his phone... f .r e\ewebnov(e)(l).c om

Feng Chengjin looked at his phone, glanced at Gu Zixuan, then at Yu Yuanshen, and his gaze darkened.

Gu Zixuan looked at the restroom, her phone, and finally in the direction Yu Yuanshen and the others had entered...

For a moment, she couldn’t understand why Brother Yu and the others came in. feeNovelFire

But faced with this awkward scene, at 26, she felt a strong urge to faint and never wake up again for the first time.

It had already been such bad luck, and seeing Feng Chengjin noticeably furious, he took a step back and said she could take a picture of him as compensation, seeing how she would ruin it.

After hesitating for a while, she decided to agree. After all, being embarrassed in front of him was frequent; making him embarrassed once and leaving a dark record would make her less passive in the future.

In terms of taking photos, she didn’t have many awkward poses in mind, and Feng Chengjin’s face could almost never look bad, even upside-down.

After thinking for a long time, she came up with a pose that would make Feng Chengjin extremely awkward: the peace sign.

Feng Chengjin disagreed, his lips almost forming a straight line.

Seeing his awkwardness, she was even more relentless with various threats to make him comply.

But what was this now?

After so much coaxing, she failed to take the dark record photo.

Under everyone’s gaze, the daughter of Vice Governor Gu, who had learned Chinese etiquette and Western manners since childhood, actually ended up taking selfies with a man in the ladies’ restroom?

What depressed her even more was that in a slip of the hand, she saw the photo she took of Feng Chengjin...

His arm wrapped around, a finger lightly touching his nose, at a 45-degree angle looking up with deep Mo Tong eyes.

A shot ten times more stylish than a male fashion magazine cover...

Thinking of her own unbearable-to-look-at photo, Gu Zixuan almost gritted her teeth in frustration.

...

After a long while, seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly silent, Yu Yuanshen, locking eyes with the angry Gu Zixuan and the guilty Feng Chengjin, vaguely pieced together what had happened.

The curve of his lips gradually eased from the coldness, and looking at Gu Zixuan, he softly said, "Everyone’s in now, I came to check thinking something happened. Shall we go?"

Gu Zixuan hesitated for a moment, nodded, "Let’s go."

Taking a deep breath, surveying Feng Chengjin’s expression, she knew taking photos was impossible now. After handing the phone to Feng Chengjin, she said to Yu Yuanshen, "Brother Yu, can you lend me a hand?"

Yu Yuanshen had no objection, stepped forward, and assisted Gu Zixuan out.

As their silhouettes receded, Feng Chengjin holding the phone, swiped the screen to view the photo Gu Zixuan took of him, a slight smile on his lips.

Looking at the time on his watch, his smile turned slightly sardonic.

There were still 6 minutes left before the show started.

...

Sitting inside the Paris Opera House, the rich Renaissance atmosphere was nearly tangible.

However, due to the earlier series of events, their seating arrangement had noticeably changed.

Originally, Yu Yuanshen held the tickets for the central seats, understanding Feng Chengjin’s intelligence, he didn’t hold much hope to separate Feng Chengjin and Gu Zixuan, as long as he maintained the middle ground, Gu Zixuan sitting next to him would suffice.

Unexpectedly now, perhaps Feng Chengjin really had infuriated Gu Zixuan.

Upon sitting, Gu Zixuan glanced at Jiang Yuan, sat in the farthest corner without a second look, and even as Yu Yuanshen hesitated slightly, about to offer his seat to Jiang Yuan, she pulled Yu Yuanshen to the spot next to her.

Gu Zixuan changing Yu Yuanshen’s seat, there was nothing that could be done about it.

Yu Yuanshen’s lips curled slightly with a smile.

The other three people’s faces were each tense.

With only three seats left, Qin Nuo and Jiang Yuan exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and considerately chose the seat farthest to the edge on the other side.

In the end, Feng Chengjin, arms crossed, sat squarely in the middle seat.

His demeanor was very calm, not showing any signs of displeasure. Yu Yuanshen glanced over and slightly raised the corners of his lips, revealing a subtle smirk.

Soon, almost at the moment Feng Chengjin sat down, the conductor took the stage.

After bowing to the audience, a wave of applause filled the room.

The tuning began, and as the heavy yet distant sound of the cello beautifully emerged, a renowned symphony by the Dresden State Orchestra, one of the world’s top ten symphony orchestras, started playing. .com

Gu Zixuan listened intently, not only because she enjoyed Western orchestral music, but also because the piece being played was the most captivating she had heard since her violin enlightenment.

Not long after, she was completely engrossed.

As the grand and undulating notes resonated through the vast Paris Opera House.

Yu Yuanshen looked at Feng Chengjin, who actually wasn’t interested since he sat down, for a long time, and during another wave of uplifting music,

he leaned over, lowered his voice, and chuckled deeply, "Isn’t this a case of being too clever for one’s own good, thereby risking danger?"

Feng Chengjin understood what he meant, his deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he gazed at the familiar movements of the musicians under the splendid lights, saying, "I only know that reading too much of the ’Story of the Stone’ isn’t good. No matter how beautiful ’The Dream of the Red Chamber’ is, it remains a dream, whereas in Wu Cheng’en’s writings, one can’t achieve the ultimate enlightenment without enduring the eighty-one trials. Isn’t that so?"

Yu Yuanshen chuckled lightly, "That’s just Journey to the West. In Water Margin, Song Jiang once said, ’Should I ever achieve my lofty ambition, I’ll dare to laugh at Huang Chao’s failures,’ but what happened in the end?"

Speaking slowly, Yu Yuanshen said, "Wanting both rebellion and amnesty, too many desires are likely to lead to trouble."

Yu Yuanshen’s words were sincere, laced with a sigh.

Feng Chengjin heard this, his smile deepened.

Breaking eye contact, he gazed deeply and said word by word, "There are also those with simple ideas and pure hearts, like Zhuge Liang, who, after being visited thrice by Liu Bei, devoted his life wholeheartedly to the Liu family. But what about in the end?"

Facing Yu Yuanshen’s slightly tense expression, Feng Chengjin shook his head and said, "Sometimes, the process isn’t as important as the outcome. This is just the beginning of the Three Kingdoms chaos, the days ahead are long. It’s unclear who will unify the realm, and I don’t believe President Yu is Sima Yan."

The tone of his gentle laughter was so low it almost didn’t disturb anyone around.

Gu Zixuan, immersed in the music, couldn’t hear.

But for Qin Nuo, who wasn’t fond of symphonies and instead listened intently to the two men’s conversation,

he was really feeling dizzy.

On one side were the looping references to Chinese classics, on the other was the entirely incomprehensible Western elegance.

How could these days be so hard to tolerate?

With her elbow, she nudged Jiang Yuan, "Can you understand it?"

Jiang Yuan pursed her red lips, watching a violinist on stage, bashfully shook her head, and said, "I don’t understand, but that violinist is really handsome."

Qin Nuo: "..."

Next to them, Gu Zixuan could faintly hear a little of the quiet conversation among the four people around her.

Although it wasn’t loud, and everyone tried their best to maintain the quietness of the scene and their own composure, not disturbing anyone.

But...

Forget about Qin Nuo and Jiang Yuan.

Gu Zixuan glanced past Yu Yuanshen’s chin, looking at the quiet navy-blue figure sitting in the middle.

His expression was calm, quietly watching the conductor in the distance, his deep eyes seemed to blend with the oceanic sky.

In the face of her anger, he didn’t show much expression.

It was just evident that attending a concert he wasn’t personally interested in, bringing her to listen, yet she ignored him, leaving him to sit alone in the middle, did make him somewhat unhappy.

Gu Zixuan’s eyebrows fluttered.

Especially remembering that day when he dragged her out from the Shangpin Yuncui house, he said,

"Take you out for a breather."

Something soft and shallow was touched in her heart.

...

Upon leaving, Gu Zixuan felt very satisfied. Not only did she fulfill a wish at the Dresden State Orchestra’s concert, but it was also in line with her passion.

However, standing in the windy Paris Square,

she was wearing the jacket Yu Yuanshen gave her.

According to the original plan, she was supposed to return to China with Yu Yuanshen.

Not too far away, Feng Chengjin stood with his hands in his pockets, his lazy posture saying nothing.

His deep eyes made it difficult to guess his thoughts.

After saying goodbye, as the car arrived, Yu Yuanshen glanced at Feng Chengjin, reached out to her, "Zixuan, let’s return."

Gu Zixuan nodded and, supported by Yu Yuanshen, slowly moved.

But after taking a few steps, Gu Zixuan turned back to look, thinking for a while.

After taking a few more steps, she finally stopped...
