Chapter 317 It's impossible to be shy (Cheng Yubai)
"Xiao Meng, is Miss Shen back?"

As Zhou Yi asked the question, he got up, wanting to go out and take a look.

The villa has a very high level of security, so the chances of it being broken into are not high.

The only possibility is that Shen Zhaoyi has returned.

Xu Meng nodded, the scene from earlier flashing through her mind again, and she quickly raised her hand to stop the person.

"Uncle Zhou, let's wait a bit."

"What?"

Zhou Yi didn't quite understand.

Xu Meng didn't know how to explain, so she could only stammer, "Dr. Cheng is outside too."

Alright, there's one more. It's not hard to guess then.

Zhou Yi, being a housekeeper, quickly guessed the reason from her actions.

"Oh dear, I'm getting old~"

He let out a joking sound, turned around, and blocked Old Wang who was following him.

The three of them were inside, pondering when they could leave without disturbing their boss's good time.

Shen Zhaoyi had already gotten out of the car at this moment.

As Cheng Yubai unbuckled his seatbelt, she shoved him aside.

"I just didn't expect it to be this fast."

"It's already slow enough, but you've been focused on chatting with other people the whole way."

Cheng Yubai casually launched into a complaint. Seeing Shen Zhaoyi get out of the car, he followed her out and went to the trunk to retrieve his luggage.

"Let's go." He held out his hand. "I'll see you off to the very end."

It's just a couple of steps, though it's unnecessary.

but……

It's his own fault for telling a little lie at noon.

Now is the perfect time to be round.

Shen Zhaoyi also felt it was a bit unnecessary, so she didn't put her hand on his, but instead walked around him and prepared to go into the house first.

But as we passed each other, my wrist was grabbed.

"It's just holding hands, aren't you shy?"

"I'm shy?"

Although she knew he was using reverse psychology, Shen Zhaoyi didn't mind taking the bait.

She was eager to know what else this man would do after entering the house.

She broke free from his grasp, then grabbed him back, and finally their hands were clasped together.

Shen Zhaoyi raised an eyebrow at him smugly.

Not to be outdone, Cheng Yubai cleverly and forcefully intervened, changing their fingers to interlock.

"This is what holding hands really means."

He imitated Shen Zhaoyi, raising his eyebrows as well.

Both parties then walked up the steps and entered the main house in this posture.

Xu Meng was the first to turn her head and look at them, and naturally she didn't miss the pair of hands clasped together.

No way.

Has Dr. Cheng truly succeeded in taking the position?
What's the difference between this scene and a declaration of sovereignty?
Zhou Yi was also sorting out the relationship between the two in his mind. Just a few days ago, the boss brought back a girl named Mu Mu, who even stayed overnight.

Could it be that he found a new love after breaking up with Dr. Cheng?

Judging from the current situation, they've probably made up.

Thank goodness, I've saved my job.

Old Wang's thoughts were similar to Zhou Yi's.

When the two met Cheng Yubai, they were both relieved that he had regained favor.

"Give me your luggage."

Xu Meng stepped forward, took the box from Cheng Yubai's hand, and tactfully went upstairs.

She didn't want to be a third wheel here.

As for Zhou Yi and Lao Wang, they were thinking about how to explain their absence from the airport.

This is, after all, a dereliction of duty.

However, after reading the message sent by Xu Meng, Shen Zhaoyi no longer took the matter to heart.

Moreover, when Cheng Yubai gets cunning, no one can resist being fooled by him.

"It's getting late, you should go back now."

Instead of holding them accountable, the first thing they said was to tell them to leave. The two middle-aged men, whose combined age was over 100, hesitated and couldn't bring themselves to move.

Cheng Yubai, ever the righteous one, chimed in, "That's right, go home and rest early, I'll take care of things here."

Seeing that he took the blame, Zhou Yi and Lao Wang exchanged glances, then walked out the door one after the other without further hesitation.

The living room was finally free of unwanted people.

Shen Zhaoyi glanced at her hand, which was still being held, and tried to break free.

I thought it would take some effort, but before I could even exert any force, the other person let go of me.

Cheng Yubai took the box containing the award and opened it. "Should this be put in your display case?"

As if guessing Shen Zhaoyi's thoughts, although she was asking a question, her feet were already turning in that direction.

From the previous donation certificate to the later banner, and now this commendation.

Something different from others.

These three honors truly belong to Shen Zhaoyi herself.

Cheng Yubai was involved in all of these.

"Thanks."

Shen Zhaoyi followed over and spoke for the first time, expressing her gratitude.

She knew very well that what she had obtained before was easy to get, but what the government gave her must have involved many twists and turns.

Cheng Yubai never expected to hear those two words from her mouth; it was truly a rare occurrence.

"You think you can just thank someone with a single sentence?"

"Why not?"

Just as Shen Zhaoyi thought he was going to take advantage of this opportunity to push his luck, he heard Cheng Yubai mention Zhou Yi and Lao Wang.

"They couldn't very well refuse my request."

"For the sake of this commendation, let's not deduct their salary."

What a perfect opportunity! How could Cheng Yubai not have considered himself?

This changed Shen Zhaoyi's opinion of him considerably.

"I never really took this to heart."

"Oh?" Cheng Yubai suddenly leaned down, bringing his face close to Shen Zhaoyi's. "Then you're quite lenient with me."

"Stop trying to glorify yourself. I know they've been fooled by you."

Shen Zhaoyi turned away, choosing not to look at that face again.

Cheng Yubai felt somewhat wronged.

"How can this be considered a scam?"

"I'm telling the truth."

"Which sentence is the truth?" Shen Zhaoyi wanted to hear what kind of explanation he could come up with.

Cheng Yubai caught up with her in a few strides, grabbed her hand, and held it up to her face. "Weren't we made up?"

"What about breaking up?"

"Is it inappropriate to mention those two words at this time?"

Cheng Yubai tried to evade the question with her.

Shen Zhaoyi knew this person would act shamelessly, so she pulled her hand away again.

In the past, she would have already told people to leave by now.

But tonight, from the moment I entered the house until now, I haven't even had that thought.

Realizing that she had been indulging Cheng Yubai even more than before, Shen Zhaoyi pondered what to do next.

Is it to follow one's original intention, or...?

Just as she was struggling with this, she saw Cheng Yubai raise his hand and rub her head.

"Alright, let's not bring this up again from now on."

"I have an experiment early tomorrow morning, so I have to go."

"you should also rest earlier."

After saying that, he walked towards the door without a trace of hesitation.

This sudden intimacy made Shen Zhaoyi very uncomfortable.

Cheng Yubai, this shouldn't be the case.

He was just one step away from victory, so why did he suddenly stop?
Is this a case of playing hard to get?
interesting.

Not knowing what new path this person had taken, Shen Zhaoyi pulled herself out of that moment of tenderness.

"Alright then, I won't see you off."
