Chapter 60: His Look is Scorching and Direct

Chapter 60: His Look is Scorching and Direct

While with Shi Yan, Zheng Shuyi already lost track of how many times she lifted a rock and smashed it on her own foot.

Using the fact that she was hurt, she continuously stepped forward to test for Shi Yan's bottom line. After realizing that there didn't seem to be a limit, she was almost about to shamelessly go even further.

But the truth proved that in terms of countering Zheng Shuyi, Shi Yan seemed to never lose.

In Shi Yan's arms, Zheng Shuyi froze, her brain quickly processing.

Why am I suddenly going to live in his house now?

It was mainly because she felt like it might not be very suitable for them to be living together so quickly.

Is the procedure way too oversimplified?

Do CEOs nowadays all seek efficiency this much?

After thinking about it carefully, none of her requests involved having to live in his house.

He made it sound like if she went to live there, he would come home to eat every meal.

Yes, this had to be it.

The case was solved. Shi Yan wasn't trying to fulfill his promise at all, he was just bringing his own feelings into this matter.

Scheming with me? Don't even think about it!

Zheng Shuyi slowly raised her head and then pushed Shi Yan away with a serious look on her face. Without another word, she turned around and walked towards the office door. The words "my act is over, time to go home" were written all over her back.

Shi Yan reached forward and grabbed her wrist, "Where are you going?"

Zheng Shuyi still didn't look back.

She tried to make herself look calm and cold.

"Going home to pack up."

In fact, Zheng Shuyi never planned to reject this offer in the first place.

She found out that she seemed to have some kind of skin hunger: every time she saw Shi Yan, she wanted to touch him, even if it was just holding hands, it made her really happy.

And from what happened just now, she probably didn't seem reserved at all in Shi Yan's eyes.

It has always been like this. Shi Yan could give her a pole, and she could reach the top of it with rocket speed.

The sense of weakness she had when she came in completely disappeared. She took big steps as she walked out and her long hair bounced slightly on her back.

But after a few steps, she suddenly turned around.

"What is it?"

Shi Yan had already sat down behind his desk.

Zheng Shuyi smiled, her eyes gleaming like the stars.

She didn't speak and ran back to Shi Yan. She leaned over in front of him and said quietly, "Nothing, I just want to kiss you."

Shi Yan: ""

His face showed no changes as he slightly leaned back.

A solid "no".

Zheng Shuyi was already used to him being like this. She got even closer and smiled as she tugged his tie, "Just once?"

Before waiting for a reply, she leaned her face over, but Shi Yan turned his head slightly, causing her to miss.

Zheng Shuyi: ""

Her face remained the same too as she straightened her back and looked around.

"Where's the wine? Do you have wine here? Actually, pure alcohol is fine too."

Shi Yan didn't move. He sat there and interestingly watched Zheng Shuyi's performance.

"Enough already, this is an office."

"So what?"

Zheng Shuyi lost interest in an instant, "No one else is here."

"But I'll have a reaction."

Zheng Shuyi: "?"

She froze for a second and then turned around mechanically like a robot.

And Shi Yan sat upright, his lenses reflecting the light from the screen. Behind the cold frames, his eyes seemed to be very serious.

Yes, he just looked at Zheng Shuyi like that.

This person

How can he say that without blushing and with such a straight face?

Then, he loosened his tie and said calmly, "If you don't mind, then sure."

Zheng Shuyi's face turned red immediately. She went to grab her bag in a panic.

"You should go back to work now."

She didn't wait for a reply from Shi Yan and turned to leave.

At the door, she pressed the button for the door to open, but nothing happened.

She pressed it again a few times, but the results were the same.

She could feel a scorching gaze stuck onto her, and she felt too embarrassed to look back at that gaze.

She could only say with her back facing the owner of this gaze, "Your office door is broken."

"It's not."

His voice accompanied his footsteps as he appeared beside her.

Then, he hugged her from behind and his breath slowly enveloped Zheng Shuyi.

He lowered his head and landed a soft kiss on her earlobe.

It was just a soft and quick touch, satisfying her request.

But Zheng Shuyi could feel that he was really restraining himself.

The next second, Shi Yan held Zheng Shuyi's left hand, brought it up, and pressed the open button on the wall.

When he held his hand and pressed it down, a force came down on her from behind.

"That's not what I'm trying to say. You promised me something this afternoon, did you forget? Or were you just trying to trick me into your house?

Shi Yan looked up and stared at her, swallowed the food in his mouth, then said slowly, "Yeah."

Facing his straight eyes but hearing him say such shameless words

Zheng Shuyi's reaction was strange.

She didn't feel angry but instead felt her face being hot.

She didn't say anymore and picked up the spoon with her left hand and started to stir the porridge.

At this time, Shi Yan suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks. He didn't say anything as he got up, walked around the table, pulled out a chair beside her, and sat down. Then he took away her bowl and spoon.

His motions were smooth and quick. Before Zheng Shuyi was even able to react, a spoonful of porridge was already in front of her mouth.

Zheng Shuyi was stunned for a moment, looking at his eyes.

Shi Yan wasn't in a hurry either. After looking at her for a while, he said, "Open."

As if he pressed a switch, Zheng Shuyi obediently opened her mouth.

A spoonful of porridge was fed over, and even her swallowing movements were mechanical.

The dining room was so quiet that the only sound came from the spoon that touched the edge of the ceramic bowl and the two's breathing.

Although Shi Yan was feeding her, he kept looking at her eyes and didn't even take one glance at the bowl in hand.

He was doing the most gentle thing, but his eyes were scorching and direct. It was like a heatwave coming from all sides, drowning her little by little.

This ain't eating food

This is eating me alive!

After a few mouthfuls, Zheng Shuyi couldn't stand it anymore. She closed her mouth and looked away.

"You're done?"

She was still a little hungry.

Zheng Shuyi took over the spoon from his hand.

"I can do it myself."

She buried her head into the bowl and started to eat without looking up.

Shi Yan pressed his hand against his temple and sat there looking at her for a while. Then he chuckled and finally sat back in his seat.

After the meal, it wasn't even eight o'clock yet.

Shi Yan still had something to do, but instead of going to the study room, he took his laptop and sat in the living room.

Zheng Shuyi was originally playing games on her phone in the living room. Seeing Shi Yan coming over, she closed her phone and quietly sat there, watching Shi Yan's motions.

After a few minutes, she started to realize that Shi Yan didn't seem to be that busy after all. He was just casually checking some emails.

So she started to get restless again.

"I'm a little thirsty and want a drink. Can you open one for me?"

Shi Yan heard her but continued to type look at his laptop.

A few seconds later, he walked over to the fridge, took out a bottle of water, and handed it to Zheng Shuyi without a word.

Half an hour later.

"I want an orange. The doctor said I need more vitamins."

The phone rang at the same time, it was from his assistant.

Shi Yan opened speaker mode and listened as he leaned over to peel the oranges.

Another half an hour later.

Zheng Shuyi's neck was sore from looking at her phone. She moved her shoulders and neck, then brushed her hair and said, "It's a little hot, can you tie up my hair."

This kind of touched Shi Yan's blind spot.

He put down his laptop, looked at the hair tie that Zheng Shuyi handed over for a long while, before finally raising his hand.

Zheng Shuyi sat with her back towards him and pain came from her hair being pulled from time to time.

"Ouch, be more gentle, gentle!"

"Ouch! It hurts!"

Although Zheng Shuyi had been yelling the whole time, Shi Yan didn't say anything. He did this task inadequately without a trace of indifference on his face.

It took him several minutes just to tie a loose ponytail. Although he didn't show any impatience, he didn't say anything either and continued to look at his laptop.

Zheng Shuyi was condemned by a trace of conscience in his silence.

She quietly looked around the room, then touched his forearm with her elbow.

"You can continue with work, I'll go take a bath and sleep first okay?"

Shi Yan didn't even raise his head as he replied, "Mm."

Zheng Shuyi: ""

How come this person couldn't understand the meanings under the surface of her words?

"What I meant is" Zheng Shuyi said quietly, "Where do I sleep?"

Shi Yan's fingertips stopped on the touch screen and looked at her. His eyes showed the words "why are you asking such a useless question?"

"What do you think?"

Zheng Shuyi slowly turned her head away. She wasn't panicking, her face was just a little red.

She knew that she was asking while knowing the answer.

"Then I'll go take a bath now."

She stood up and quickly went to the bathroom.

"Shuyi."

Shi Yan suddenly called to stop her.

She felt a hunch as she stopped, but didn't look back.

"What is it?"

The voice sounded calmly behind her.

"Did the doctor say that you need someone to help you with your bath too?"
