Mr. Shang, please be passionately in love after marriage.

It was Shang Hanzhou's voice.

Cen hope was startled and looked in the direction of the sound, only to discover that there was a camera on the right side of the opposite side that she had not noticed at all.

So Shang Hanzhou saw the whole thing just now?

Ace stuck out his tongue and immediately stood up straight after he gave the command. Cen hope was so startled that he slipped backward and fell to the ground.

Unexpectedly, Ace changed direction and ran towards the location of the surveillance camera.

The security camera was installed too high; Ace couldn't reach it, so he could only raise his head and bark at it.

Judging from its appearance, it doesn't seem to want to bite Cen hope, but rather the person monitoring the other side.

Cen hope then realized that Ace's actions were not a bite, and her heart, which had been pounding wildly in fright, finally calmed down.

She puffed out her cheeks and, like Ace, stared wide-eyed at the monitor.

Shang Hanzhou was deliberately trying to scare her.

From the monitor, another sound came through, but this time it was a soft laugh. Shang Hanzhou said calmly, "Well done, Ace. Through the experiment, she's the only one who can't bite."

"..."

Cen hope froze on the spot.

He's using her as a guinea pig for Ace! And why is he teaching Ace to bite people like that?

Luckily, Ace didn't listen to him, otherwise she would have been in real trouble tonight.

For a moment, she didn't know whether she should be angry or not, and she stood up from the ground sullenly.

Cen hope patted his trouser leg, ignored him on the surveillance camera, said goodbye to Ace, and turned to leave the room.

……

It was 2 p.m. in Berlin, Germany.

The atmosphere at the meeting was tense, and the person giving the market report on stage was sweating profusely. Before returning to China, Shang Hanzhou had already arranged the follow-up tasks.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong here, and everyone was severely reprimanded at the meeting on their first day in Berlin.

To this day, no one dares to provoke General Manager Shang.

Even if Shang Hanzhou doesn't say a word, just his cold and deep eyes staring at people are enough to make people feel uneasy.

"General Manager Shang."

The person giving the report on the stage coughed and said solemnly, "My report is over."

The sound of a phone being pressed against the conference table came through. Shang Hanzhou's expression remained indifferent, showing no change in emotion, but this time, his tone was noticeably gentler than before.

He could even be described as having a gentle and pleasant demeanor.

"not bad."

The person who was just extremely nervous is now walking with their feet floating.

Mr. Shang... has his soul possessed?

Why am I in such a good mood today?

Fang Nian came to Berlin with them. After all, he was the person who had been by Shang Hanzhou's side the longest. He was observant and had guessed a little bit about it.

Mr. Shang's sudden change in mood was probably due to the scene in the surveillance video.

To be specific, it's unclear whether it's Ace or Mrs.

What's strange is that such a rigid and restrained person would one day deliberately scare people.

……

Cen hope lay on the bed, hugging a fox doll, getting angrier and angrier the more she thought about it.

Shang Hanzhou is too despicable.

Knowing full well that she was afraid of dogs, and that she had already mustered up all her courage to feed Ace dog food, he still instigated Ace to bite her. What were his intentions?

Thinking this, she sat up again, looked at the pillow he hadn't slept on for a long time, raised her fist and slammed it hard, as if she were hitting his face.

After punching him a few times, I felt much better.

Unexpectedly, this 33-year-old man had such a childish side, and he was quite enthusiastic about deliberately scaring her with such trivial things.

Buzz—the cell phone on the side of the pillow rang.

A rare new message appeared in the chat box that hadn't sent any messages since the day I borrowed the computer from the study.

Shang Hanzhou: [I've arranged for someone to feed Ace tomorrow.]

It means she's afraid of dogs, so she doesn't need to go.

It seems that Aunt Fang has already told him about taking leave.

Cen hope typed with a blank expression: 【Okay】

I wasn't this understanding when I scared her earlier.

Shang Hanzhou: [Hmm]

After staring at his single word for a while, Cen hope pulled the blanket over her and bit her lip, a secret, indescribable emotion swirling in her heart.

She and Shang Hanzhou didn't seem to be complete strangers anymore.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have deliberately scared her.

Unconsciously, his finger tapped his WeChat Moments. He didn't post much, only a few posts, all of which were news reports related to the Yasen Group.

Cen hope didn't know why, but she gave him a thumbs up.

After realizing what had happened, I was suddenly jolted awake. Why did I give him a thumbs up for no reason?

Like a thief caught doing something wrong, she quickly clicked cancel.

A few seconds later, she simply put down her phone and lay flat on the bed.

Well, they're a married couple, so liking their post on social media isn't really that strange.

Just wait for her to wake up in the morning.

When I opened WeChat, I found that there were more than a dozen red dots marked on the Moments section.

She was taken aback. Why were there so many red dots all of a sudden? She hadn't posted on her WeChat Moments for quite some time.

Upon clicking in, it turned out that Shang Hanzhou had liked all of her posts on WeChat Moments.

Is he... insane?

Blinking, Cen hope lightly patted her forehead.

It's all her fault for accidentally liking it last night.

In return, he praised her completely as well.

……

"Xixi, if you have time today, go back to the old house. Your aunt is back."

With an hour left before the end of the workday, Cen hope received a call from Grandpa Shang. He was somewhat surprised by the last sentence.

Shang Hanzhou's aunt, Shang Ruoxue, is a very famous wildlife documentary director who has won many international awards. She spends most of her time abroad and only comes back during holidays.

She came back early, even though there's still more than a month until the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Cen hope hadn't seen her many times, but they got along well. Shang Ruoxue was over fifty, but she was cheerful and generous, and she usually liked to interact with young people.

Perhaps there's something going on since I came back this time.

Thinking this, Cen hope nodded and said, "I know, Grandpa Shang, I'll go there as soon as possible."

I didn't expect to be so busy today; I got off work two hours later than usual.

It was already 9:30 when we arrived at the old house.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa, I had an emergency surgery, that's why I'm late."

As soon as she entered the door, she hurriedly apologized, as she really hadn't expected to be so late.

Grandpa Shang didn't mind at all, and asked her with concern, "Have you eaten? Are you hungry? Grandpa will have the kitchen heat something up for you quickly."

"I ate a little."

"That means they didn't eat enough or eat well."

Grandpa Shang didn't care about anything else and immediately ordered the kitchen staff to get to work. It seemed he was going to make a lot of delicious food for Cen hope.

Cen hope was worried that she would make too much and not be able to finish it, so she said, "Grandpa, just have a glutinous rice ball."

"What kind of glutinous rice balls are you eating?"

Grandpa Shang pursed his lips and said, "You work so hard, and you finally come all this way to visit Grandpa, so you definitely need to eat something good."

On this point, Cen Xizhen couldn't argue with him, so she could only smile and say, "Then I'll eat more later."

"That's more like it."

Grandpa Shang laughed along, "Xixi is too thin, she needs to gain some weight."

Cen hope is 167 cm tall and weighs just over 100 kg, so she is indeed a bit thin.

"aunt."

At this moment, she looked up and saw Shang Ruoxue walking over. She must have taken a shower, as she was only wearing a simple set of pajamas. Her face was full of color, and her phoenix eyes were sharp and piercing.

Upon seeing Cen hope, he smiled and said, "Long time no see, little Xi Xi."

Before their first meeting, Cen hope was a little afraid of Shang Ruoxue. Her documentary was naturally wild, and she herself was unconventional and notoriously difficult to deal with.

Unexpectedly, Shang Ruoxue took an instant liking to her and did not hold it against her at all, as she was an illegitimate daughter of the Cen family and had only married into the family because she had taken advantage of Cen Ning.

"You two, call for backup too."

Shang Ruoxue raised her hand and lightly slapped the two children beside her on the forehead.
