As the saying went, if you wanted to grab a man’s heart, you had to grab his stomach first. Yan Xi did not have the ability to cook, so she decided to take a different approach and help Gu Shen pack his luggage.
When Gu Shen returned to his room, he saw that his door was wide open. He did not like others to enter his room. Just as he frowned, he saw Yan Xi jump out from inside.
Seeing her, he relaxed a bit. “What are you doing in my room?”
“Tm helping you pack up for your business trip. Don’t you think I’m considerate?”
Gu Shen looked inside and felt pleased. However, he said to her, “You messed up the room.”
“Which one do you choose? Your wife helping you pack up or a clean room?” Yan Xi said, with her hands on her hips, looking at Gu Shen seriously without batting an eye.
Gu Shen smiled secretly. “Continue packing.”
“No problem, President Gu.” Yan Xi smiled at him and opened the door of the wardrobe. She wanted to take out some white shirts for him but her hand landed on something embarrassing.
Yan Xi looked at the black underwear in her hand and froze on the spot.
Gu Shen cleared his throat and pretended to act calm. “Put it down.”
“L.. I didn’t mean to hurt you. I just wanted to get you some shirts. I didn’t know this thing would end up in my hands.”
“You can put it down now.”
“L… I’ll stuff it back right now.” Yan Xi quickly left the wardrobe and went to the suitcase, squatting down and pretending to sort things.
In the meantime, her eyes unintentionally or otherwise glanced at the area between Gu Shen’s legs. It seemed to be quite big. As she moved her gaze up, she saw Gu Shen staring at her.
She chuckled. “Your clothes look good.”
Gu Shen paused and changed the topic. “Have you chosen what you want to buy?”
Knowing that he was referring to the delicacies, Yan Xi nodded. The feeling of embarrassment was gone all of a sudden as Yan Xi counted with her fingers.
“Osmanthus cake, savory chicken, and that red bean soup… Well, if you don’t mind, you can bring them all back. I want them all.”
“Do you want me to bring back a cook from there as well?”
“That’s a little extravagant.” Yan Xi continued, “But it doesn’t sound like a bad idea.”
“You glutton.”
After packing Gu Shen’s luggage, the two of them went downstairs for dinner.
‘When she lay on the bed, she felt suddenly unhappy at the prospect of not being able to see Gu Shen for so many days.
She got out of her room and realized that the lights in the study were still lit, so she walked over softly.
“Gu Shen, are you still awake?” Yan Xi peeked her head into the room.
Gu Shen was still working in the study room. He looked up. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
“Ican’t sleep. Gu Shen, can you take me with you tomorrow?” She walked to Gu Shen’s side and sat on the thick carpet.
“why?”
“Tjust can’t bear to part with you for so many days. I can’t get used to it.”
Gu Shen looked down at her tenderly and stroked her hair. “I’m going there to deal with a company matter this time, so it’ll be quite troublesome if I come along.”
“Then I’l send you off tomorrow morning.”
“Can you get up tomorrow moming?” Gu Shen asked.
Yan Xi usually did not wake up until around nine o’clock, but he was leaving at seven in the morning.
“IE try hard, I can get up.”
“Tl be back soon.” Gu Shen thought for a while and added, “Don’t worry.”
“Then… After you go there, you have to video call me every night before bed, and you have to reply to my messages. You can’t pretend not to see it!”
Gu Shen could sense a tinge of sadness in her voice. He looked at her and agreed.
“Then I’m going to sleep. Rest early!”
“OK
After watching Yan Xi leave, Gu Shen turned to look at the document. A soft smile came up to his face as he thought to himself, “What a needy girl. It would be a very pleasant experience if I take her with me.”
The next morning, Gu Shen specially asked people not to wake up Yan Xi, but he did not expect to see her running downstairs wearing pajamas.
“Are you leaving now?”
“Xiaoyue, put a coat on Madam.” He looked at Yan Xi. “Why do you wake up so early?”
“Because you’re leaving soon.” The next second, she took a step forward and bent down to hug Gu Shen, saying softly, “You have to come back early. I’ll miss you.”
