Chen Zan’s disciplined, routine life gained one more sweet responsibility.
He would leave work on time to take care of her in the hospital.
As soon as it was time to get off work, Chen Zan had already started packing his things.
This rare sight successfully caught the attention of his miserable coworkers.
Li Sheng frowned at him and asked, “What are you doing?”
He had never seen Chen Zan behave this normally before.
Chen Zan replied seriously, “Getting ready to leave work.”
That serious tone… something felt very off.
Li Sheng grew even more confused and said, “Aren’t you afraid the supervisor will come looking for you later? You know he always assigns tasks right at quitting time, and he’s always worried people might cheat the company out of overtime pay. Useless guy.”
Chen Zan nodded, agreeing, and rolled his eyes subtly, “That’s why I’ve decided to resist.”
Li Sheng fell silent.
If those words had come from a fresh graduate, he would have believed it.
But coming from Chen Zan, he didn’t believe it at all.
For example, they had been saying for an entire year that they would quit, yet both of them had obediently stayed in the company for another year.
But this time, Chen Zan really left.
The moment the minute hand in the office clock pointed to 18:00, Chen Zan clocked out on time and slipped away in a flash. This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
Li Sheng stared at the scene in shock.
Footsteps echoed down the hallway. He turned his head and, sure enough, the supervisor was slowly walking toward their workspace.
“Where’s Chen Zan? Went to the restroom?” Liu Qin asked.
Li Sheng felt a tightness in his chest as he replied, “He… got off work.”
Liu Qin looked utterly incredulous. He checked the time, and it really was quitting time, so he couldn’t say much. His face turned slightly flushed before he muttered, “Young people these days… can’t endure any hardship.”
He glanced at Li Sheng, let out a deep sigh, and left.
Fortunately, Li Sheng and Chen Zan had different job roles. Otherwise, the documents in the supervisor’s hands would have already landed on his desk.
At the hospital.
Jiang Youwei sat on the bed, unhappily reviewing stack after stack of documents spread over the blanket.
Work was annoying, yet she had no choice but to do it.
Her face was expressionless, her aura powerful.
Xiao Nan stood nearby, not daring to make a sound. Even though her curiosity was practically bursting her brain, she didn’t dare openly ask CEO Jiang about her private life. Get faster updates on novelping dot com.
She hadn’t been working under CEO Jiang for very long, but it wasn’t short either. In the past six months, she had never seen any man appear around her.
With CEO Jiang’s stunning beauty, countless wealthy and eligible men had pursued her, yet all had been politely rejected.
So how did a young man who looked decent but clearly wasn’t wealthy suddenly appear… and even become CEO Jiang’s husband?
Xiao Nan was so curious her heart itched.
There was a sound at the door.
Jiang Youwei turned her head. The moment she saw Chen Zan, her eyes lit up instantly, bright and lively.
As soon as Chen Zan walked to the bedside, Jiang Youwei had already put down the documents in her hands.
She skillfully wrapped her arms around his waist again. Her delicate face rubbed greedily against his chest as she inhaled his scent.
But when she saw the food Chen Zan was carrying, that overly familiar packaging made her expression droop, “Zan Zan, is it takeout again?”
Chen Zan felt his face heating up and replied shyly, “Yeah.”
He explained, “I’ve been busy lately, so I didn’t have time to cook.”
Jiang Youwei was quite obedient and said, “Takeout from Zan Zan is still the most delicious takeout in the whole world.”
The next second, her eyes filled with expectation as she said, “Feed me, okay?”
Chen Zan’s face flushed red under her gaze.
