Ten days have passed! Sigh... I lie in bed like a salted fish, weakly sighing. Over the past few days, I've done everything I could: I'm tired of reading books, I've scrolled through my phone until I no longer want to, and even the music I used to love now annoys me to no end. With nothing to do, I can only continue lying there, staring blankly at the ceiling.
At that moment, Shen Yulin walked into the room. Seeing my listless state, he frowned with concern, then set up a small table by the bed and placed his laptop on it, preparing to work while keeping me company. He was in a video conference with someone in New York, discussing some important matters. Normally, I would quietly stay by his side and try not to disturb him, but today for some reason, I felt particularly restless. Watching him focus on his work made an inexplicable sense of grievance swell up inside me.
Finally, I couldn't help but pout and say in a soft voice, "Brother Yulin, I want to get out of bed and walk around..." There was a hint of pleading in my tone. Hearing my words, Shen Yulin shifted his gaze from the screen to me, a hint of tenderness appearing on his cold face as he gently replied, "Be good, just hold on today; the doctor will come for a check-up tomorrow."
"I don't want to; I just want to get out of bed and walk around. Will you accompany me?" I tightly grasped his sleeve and began to act spoiled. Shaking his arm while looking at him with pitiful eyes, I tried to make him soften. "Just hold on for today, okay?" Shen Yulin gently reassured me. His voice carried a hint of helplessness but was filled with concern.
However, I was not appeased; my dissatisfaction made me stubborn. I turned away unhappily, leaning back against the pillow and pouting without looking at him again. I deliberately put on an angry expression, hoping to attract more of his attention and care. At that moment, I felt like a petulant child—willful and obstinate.
"Ahhhhh... Shen! Is that your wife?" The noise from the computer on Shen Yulin's side erupted into chaos as colleagues in New York shouted over each other. Yet he sat there like a statue, completely still and expressionless.
Colleagues working at the New York office knew well that Shen Yulin was naturally cold-faced. Regardless of the situation—whether happy or angry—he always maintained the same expression, making it impossible for anyone to guess his true feelings. But at this moment, they heard Shen Yulin's unexpectedly gentle voice from across the computer; it drove everyone into a frenzy!
The entire office erupted into whispers and discussions. They widened their eyes and dropped their jaws in disbelief as they stared at the screen. How could this icy man have such a tender side?
People began speculating about the identity of this mysterious woman—who could she be that could move someone like Shen Yulin? Meanwhile, Shen Yulin remained quietly seated in front of the computer, ignoring the surrounding noise. His gaze remained fixed on me as if that was the only focus of his attention.
I didn't know if it was due to poor quality or if Shen Yulin did it intentionally, but every word from across the headphones reached my ears perfectly clear. I turned back in surprise as Shen Yulin mischievously said to me, "Baby, listen; they all know about you now." My face flushed with embarrassment as I reached out to turn his face away. "Hurry up with your meeting; I'm not saying anything anymore."
Shen Yulin leaned down and deeply kissed my lips. The voices in the headphones continued talking, but I couldn't hear anything; I was fully immersed in this kiss. It wasn't until I softly moaned that he reluctantly pulled away. Turning back to his cold demeanor again, he spoke into the headphones: "Today's meeting ends here; report back to me after you've all discussed the remaining matters within two days." After saying that, he took off his headphones and shut down the computer.
