Noticing Yu Sheng’s expression seemed slightly off,
The clever secretary silently took note, preparing to investigate this Gu Chen discreetly.
The elevator went straight to the top floor.
Led by the secretary, Yu Sheng walked slowly toward the CEO’s office.
Just as they reached the door, they saw several people holding documents with anxious expressions, yet hesitating and pushing each other to avoid knocking.
The moment the secretary approached, someone grabbed her.
“Hurry, help me take this to Young Master Wen.”
Uh…
Even though Yu Sheng had mentally teased Wen Zhuqing herself, hearing others address him like that still felt mismatched with his gloomy and obsessive nature.
She wondered, what expression he made when hearing that title.
The secretary gave them a suspicious look. “What’s going on with you all?”
The marketing manager immediately made a shushing gesture. “Who knows what trap he’s laid this time? He said we could leave an hour early today and even offered to pay for all departments to have private gatherings!”
“That sounds suspicious right away. It just doesn’t feel as simple as it seems!”
Especially since the company had been dealing with some tough issues recently.
At times like these, who knew if Wen Zhuqing was deliberately setting them up to walk right into his trap?
Wow?
Yu Sheng, who had been standing quietly nearby, thought to herself – business truly is like a battlefield!
Even employee benefits came with so many hidden complexities!
As they were speaking, everyone’s gaze suddenly fixed on her, then shifted to the secretary as if asking, “And who is this?”
The secretary quickly introduced, “The young madam of the Wen family. She and Young Master Wen have already registered their marriage.”
Holy crap!
Under everyone’s astonished stares, Yu Sheng felt prickles running down her spine.
The next second, all the documents in their hands were shoved into her arms. “Please, young madam, help us out!”
“Young madam, do us this favor! We’ll treat you to dinner another day!”
“Ahhh, young madam, you’re like a celestial being descended to earth, beautiful as a painting! Fairies are the kindest of all!”
What the?
Before Yu Sheng could react, the group had already pushed the documents to her and quickly scattered.
These people combined were several hundred years old, yet they could still pull off such childish antics.
Helpless, Yu Sheng raised her hand and knocked on the office door. After hearing that steady, capable voice respond, she pushed the door open and entered.
Without a word, she placed the stack of documents on the desk.
Hearing the noise, Wen Zhuqing lifted his eyes from his papers and saw those delicate eyebrows knitted together, his little wife looking both conflicted and wronged – how adorable she was!
Yu Sheng pointed at the stack of documents.
“They asked me to bring these in!”
Wen Zhuqing naturally understood who “they” referred to.
Closing his pen, he slowly stood up, walked around the desk, and gestured for Yu Sheng to go sit and rest on the sofa.
Then, despite his noble status, he personally poured a glass of water for Yu Sheng.
Keeping their relationship firmly in mind, Yu Sheng nervously accepted the water glass and took a few sips.
She quickly took the medical report from her bag and handed it to Wen Zhuqing.
“The doctor said the baby is very healthy now. Should I establish my medical records at Wen Group Hospital, or…?”
Or would the Wen family have better arrangements?
“Mm, just follow the doctor’s advice.”
Wen Zhuqing’s voice remained as cool and detached as ever, devoid of any discernible emotion.
Yet, for some reason.
Yu Sheng felt inexplicably reassured.
Unaware of Yu Sheng’s subtle distance, Wen Zhuqing carefully reviewed the medical report before turning to her with a gentler gaze.
However.
Yu Sheng attributed all this tenderness solely to the Wen family bloodline growing within her womb.
Wen Zhuqing’s voice sounded above her head, “What would you like to eat?”
At this question, Yu Sheng immediately perked up.
Without hesitation, she listed numerous delicacies – fruits, petite cakes, and even milk tea.
Wen Zhuqing listened with a furrowed brow, then asked uncertainly after she finished,
“Has your morning sickness improved? Are you sure these won’t cause problems?”
He remembered how the young woman had been vomiting everything she ate during her morning sickness, her distressed appearance tugging at his heartstrings.
Well.
That was indeed a significant concern.
But she couldn’t just stop eating!
Yu Sheng intertwined her fingers somewhat sheepishly, murmuring softly, “My appetite’s not bad – I can still eat after throwing up!”
Still skeptical, Wen Zhuqing took out his phone to search online.
“You’re certain?”
Online sources indicated that most people experiencing constant vomiting lose their appetite entirely, often requiring hospital nutrition drips.
He had already notified the hospital to prepare for such contingency.
Why was his little woman different from others?
Yu Sheng nodded obediently, “Yes, I’m sure, I really can eat!”
Since she insisted, Wen Zhuqing could only instruct his secretary to place the orders immediately. No sooner had he hung up than Yu Sheng spoke again with slight hesitation.
“Mr. Wen, considering how diligently I’m taking care of myself, shouldn’t…” She made a heart gesture with her fingers.
This gesture represented not just love, but carried another meaning among Chinese people.
Wen Zhuqing: “…”
How could he have forgotten.
Their current situation originated from negotiated terms!
Without a word, Wen Zhuqing transferred 200,000 yuan directly.
“Consider it a reward!”
The instant the SMS notification arrived, Yu Sheng nearly jumped with excitement, “Thank you, Mr. Wen! Rest assured, I’ll dutifully fulfill my role as the Wen family’s decorative vase, taking good care of myself and the baby!”
“I’ll never cause you worry or hinder your search for true love. Should you or your true love ever need my assistance, just say the word!”
Wen Zhuqing: “…”
The more she spoke, the more absurd it became.
Unable to restrain himself, he stepped forward and tapped her forehead several times.
The fair, delicate skin immediately showed faint red marks.
“I really want to crack open your skull and see what’s inside!”
As he spoke, Yu Sheng recalled the insurmountable nine-year age gap between them.
She silently closed her mouth, not daring to continue.
Unexpectedly, Wen Zhuqing’s cool fingertips lifted her chin, forcing her to raise her face and meet his sharp gaze.
Though his eyes held traces of sternness, his tone carried a playful note.
“What, still thinking you can fool me with internet memes?”
#My husband gives me 500,000 monthly but never comes home – can I go help his mistress with postpartum care?#
Ever since last time, when this little girl had chattered away with so many words, he had gone online to look it up.
Yu Sheng shyly pursed her lips, never expecting it~
That rebellious teenager who once ran wild in Rongcheng, roaring through the streets on a motorcycle late at night—the young master of the Wen family—had actually step by step matured for real now~
She tried to free her little face from his grasp.
“Mr. Wen~”
The man before her remained unmoved.
“Uncle~”
The girl’s soft, sweet voice struck deep into his heart, stirring restless thoughts within him. After releasing her face, he nonetheless pulled her entirely into his embrace without a second thought.
