Hunt her

It seems that Shen Yi understands her better than she thought.

Yan Xu sat in the back seat, nestled in his lap: "Have I caused you trouble again?"

"No." Shen Yi kissed her red lips. "I said, it's all what I should do."

It is a husband's duty to protect his wife.

Yan Xu: "If they come looking for you again, just ignore them, understand?"

"Okay." Shen Yi patted her hair. "I know, I'll do whatever you say."

At this moment, Yan Xu's worries were greatly relieved.

"Shall we go home, baby?"

"There's still work to be done at Youyu Technology."

"Oh." Shen Yi was somewhat disappointed.

Yan Xu sensed the emotion in his words and smiled, "It's New Year's Eve, I'll leave work early."

Shen Yi's eyes lit up: "Yes."

When they arrived at the Youyu Technology building, Yan Xu told him to drive away, but Shen Yi insisted on taking her upstairs, wanting to stay with her a little longer.

Yan Xu couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had no choice but to let him escort her upstairs.

By sheer coincidence, I saw Xiao Jingxing sitting in the lobby.

She swore she didn't know Xiao Jingxing hadn't left yet.

The moment Shen Yi saw Xiao Jingxing, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, realizing that her position in the harem was in jeopardy.

He demanded, "What's this man doing here?"

Yan Xu: "Brother Jingxing told me that Yan Shan is asking where you are."

Shen Yi didn't want to hear her explanation and walked up to Xiao Jingxing. She kicked him: "Hey, you have your own company, why are you trying to make a name for yourself at my wife's company?"

Xiao Jingxing's face darkened: "I need to talk to her about work, is that any of your business?"

The two argued back and forth, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

Yan Xu acted as a peacemaker, suggesting, "Why don't you all go back first?"

She also had other work to finish, and she wanted to get off work early to go home and spend New Year's Eve with Shen Yi.

Xiao Jingxing: "I have something to discuss with you regarding work."

Shen Yi followed closely behind: "I don't have much to do today, I'll wait for you to get off work."

"..."

Yan Xu said helplessly, "Brother Jingxing, come to my office."

Shen Yi immediately interjected, "I want to go too. If you're not going to talk, just stay put."

Yan Xu: "Do as you please."

And so, the three of them stayed together in an awkward atmosphere.

Yan Xu and Xiao Jingxing talked about projects, goals for the next quarter, and future development directions, and their conversations lasted for at least one or two hours.

Shen Yi sat next to him, yawning.

He glanced at the time; it was already past five in the afternoon.

Xiao Jingxing did this on purpose, didn't he? Why didn't he actively talk to Yan Xu about work before? Why did he choose New Year's Eve?

Yan Xu glanced at Shen Yi and saw that he was already getting impatient.

She said, "Jingxing, how about we talk again later?"

These things had already been discussed quite thoroughly before.

"Yes." Xiao Jingxing smiled faintly, "You feel sorry for him."

Yan Xu's ears suddenly burned, and her eyes darted away: "What did you say?"

Xiao Jingxing looked at her with an expression that said, "You can't hide anything from me. That's good. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. Happy New Year's Eve."

Yan Xu nodded: "Brother Jingxing, you too."

Shen Yi's eyes followed Xiao Jingxing's figure toward the office door.

"Finally, we're gone." Shen Yi instantly perked up. "Baby, it's time to go home."

Yan Xu found his childish tantrum endearing: "Okay, let's go home."

Before Yan Xu left, she had already decorated the house.

There were New Year's Eve stickers and lots of balloons; you'd think it was a marriage proposal.

Shen Yi exclaimed in delight, "Baby, I thought you didn't understand romance at all. It seems I don't know you well enough!"

Yan Xu said casually, "I saw it online. It says that New Year's Eve should be a ritual."

"Did you receive the gift I sent you?"

"What gift?"

Shen Yi's previously upturned lips immediately drooped: "Did you receive today's package?"

Yan Xu remembered: "At the door."

She left in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to see what it was.

Shen Yi walked to the door, took the package to the living room, and quickly unpacked it.

He took out the contents and handed them to Yan Xu: "Here you go."

"A bag?" She looked at the limited-edition Hermès bag in her hand, unsure of what to say. "It's quite beautiful, but a bit heavy."

She just doesn't like carrying a bag when she goes out; it's not practical for her.

But provide enough emotional value.

Shen Yi said, "Open the bag again and take a look inside."

Yan Xu asked in surprise, "There's more inside?"

She unzipped her jacket: "Wow!"

There were six 20-gram investment gold bars inside.

No wonder it felt so heavy when I held it.

Yan Xu realized what was happening: "But I didn't prepare a gift for you... I just decorated the house a bit."

I should have gone out and bought her a gift.

Shen Yi put his arm around her waist, leaned down and whispered, "Give you to me as a gift."

"..." Yan Xu blushed and pushed him away. "Annoying."

Shen Yi had originally booked a high-end restaurant, but Yan Xu only wanted to eat the food he cooked.

So Shen Yi had no choice but to put on an apron and show off her skills in the kitchen.

"It has to be you again," Shen Yi couldn't help but sigh. "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have this much patience."

Yan Xu tilted his head smugly: "Yeah, how come I'm so amazing?"

Outside the window, the sounds of fireworks and firecrackers rang out one after another.

Yan Xu stood at the window and could still see the fireworks that others were setting off.

She recalled the fireworks she saw during the Torch Festival in Yunzhao County: "I wonder when I'll be able to go to Yunzhao County again for the Torch Festival."

Shen Yi followed her gaze to the window: "Want to see fireworks?"

Yan Xu nodded: "Mm."

"I'll arrange it," Shen Yi said. "I guarantee it will be even better than what we saw in Yunzhao County last time."

"That's different." That fireworks display held a special meaning for Yan Xu.

Shen Yi asked, "How is it different?"

Yan Xu: "I was lucky enough to see those fireworks from Zhenyun Pavilion. Other fireworks might not be so lucky."

They put it there themselves, so there's no need to go into it by luck.

Shen Yi smiled faintly: "Looks like I'm your lucky charm."

"What do you mean?" Yan Xu didn't understand.

Shen Yi teased, "Think for yourself, use your clever little brain."

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard outside the window, and fireworks scattered in the sky like colorful stars, dazzling and spectacular.

Yan Xu seemed to understand something: "The fireworks show in Yunzhao County was set off for me."

"Yes, this is a gift for you."

Yan Xu's mind went blank for a moment; she didn't know how to thank Shen Yi.

It turns out that Shen Yi did so much for her without her knowing.

He always called her stupid.

He was clearly the dumbest one.

You did something and then came here to claim credit, you idiot.

Shen Yi brought out the stewed braised pork, "Come and eat!"

Yan Xu: "Oh."
