Shen Jingyu accompanied Su Xing. That evening, he received a message about Han Ruoxi, who was sitting alone in the mountains, with only the stars for company, like a wandering spirit guarding a tombstone, chatting with the air.
Su Xing leaned against him and glanced hurriedly at his phone screen. Unable to hold back, she remarked, "Haha! Luo Hao's reports read like a school essay, filled with so many rhetorical devices."
"Yeah, he's too idle. I should assign him some work," Shen Jingyu agreed wholeheartedly, immediately deciding to give his senior assistant more tasks.
Su Xing silently stuck out her tongue; it seemed she wasn't being the kind-hearted sister-in-law after all. "What about you next? You’re not planning to follow me every day, are you? Aren't you neglecting your own work? Are you really prepared to be my little lapdog?"
This topic had been lingering on her lips all day!
Jingyu had been watching her closely without missing a detail. Even today, when there was a meeting, he had accompanied Su Xing to Starry Convergence and had even invited Mu Beiming along under the pretense of discussing business. But in reality, it was just for companionship.
Little lapdog? That description sparked some thoughts in Shen Jingyu's mind.
Suddenly, Su Xing felt a dangerous gaze; that look was somewhat familiar and had often lingered in their bedroom these past few days. Heaven knows why Shen Jingyu had Qin Yi by his side. The ointment he developed was simply extraordinary!
Su Xing had no time to rest! Shen Jingyu personally checked on him, applied the medicine, and verified everything with his own body—Su Xing was perfectly fine.
"I was wrong! I admit it! Um, you should tone down that look!"
"No!" Shen Jingyu refused decisively. How could he let himself be at a disadvantage?!
In the blink of an eye, Su Xing found herself swept up in his arms and carried into the bedroom.
In an instant, it felt like all her breath was stolen away. A low, husky voice lingered in her ears: "Is a little lapdog like me this fierce?"
Su Xing looked up and howled at the sky: "Big Wolf Dog! You’ve turned into a big-tailed wolf now?"
Shen Jingyu replied, "You said it! So get ready to endure the pleasures of being with a wolf dog."
Su Xing pleaded repeatedly, "Don't grab my neck; I have to wear a formal dress tomorrow!"
Her arms were also not spared! Big Wolf Dog—Su Xing felt like crying without tears; this sweet torment made her life feel overly colorful.
"I'm very dissatisfied with that title! So your protest is invalid! Tomorrow you’ll take me out; I’ll personally testify for you!"
Shen Jingyu took another deep breath.
Su Xing suddenly realized that despite having learned martial arts, she couldn't use any of it against this person.
In the dark of night, flames of battle ignited in Su Xing's mind; starting tomorrow, she had to intensify her physical training!
Unable to resist, he decided to rise up and fight back! However, after contemplating this thought for a long time, Su Xing still couldn't fully achieve it. By the next morning, he had set off another alarm for work, which seemed to have either not gone off at all or only rang after he had already fallen asleep.
In any case, when Su Xing finally woke up this time, he no longer saw Shen Jingyu's shadow. Dragging his sore body, Su Xing fumbled for his phone. Every movement sent crackling sounds from his joints, reminding him that it was time to rein in Shen Jingyu's excessive indulgence.
Mu Beiyao's phone was bombarding Su Xing, and then she had to bombard Lu Xiangyi as well. The two of them took turns calling and video chatting, making Mu Beiyao feel like she hadn't accomplished anything serious all morning!
Those two little troublemakers! If you dare to be late for tonight's annual meeting, I swear I'll chop up the two men behind you tomorrow!
Mu Beiyao sent a fierce knife emoji in their sister group chat! Only Qin Bing was a living person; during her free time at work, she found this message quite relieving.
"Mu Beiyao, are you even dating? I need to mourn for your future husband; no one can handle that mouth of yours."
What’s up? Why don’t you find someone too? I can set the three of you up in a formation! Mu Beiyao expressed her pride.
"Xiao Bingbing, why haven’t you left yet? You need to be at the annual meeting tonight! First, you’re my plus one; second, you're our company’s senior legal advisor; you need to be there early as the organizer!"
What if I bring a male companion tonight? You can find someone to keep yourself occupied? Qin Bing suggested tentatively.
Mu Beiyao was shocked: "Wait, when did you become single? How come I didn’t know? Do those two know?"
Lu Xiangyi perked up upon seeing this; he just happened to catch the two of them bickering. Ignoring all other messages that didn’t concern him, he was curious about the gossip—there’s no woman who isn’t!
"Come on, tell me who it is! I’ll check it out! We can’t let our naive little lovebird get fooled!"
Mu Beiyao sent a voice message: "Pfft! Even a diamond bachelor could be checked out by him; who could possibly fool our Qin Da Lawyer?"
At that moment, Su Xing slowly came online: "Let’s hear it; nothing has been deceived yet, but someone has certainly captured our lawyer's heart!"
Can I say there’s really no such person? It’s just that our firm’s partner is going with me!
Right now he’s driving; I’m just hitching a ride with him. Bringing someone back home for dinner isn’t too much to ask, right?
Su Xing smiled knowingly: "Of course it’s not too much! Bingbing understands; just make sure to bring him back so we can meet him!"
I’ll take charge of bringing family members; it’s settled!
Stop talking nonsense and hurry up to the office! A row of formal dresses is waiting for you to choose from; I can’t always pick for you! Mu Beiyao felt like she was taking on the role of a mother!
Every time it wasn't about urging Su Xing, it was about preparing the tasks that his assistant needed to handle. And then! Su Xing had the audacity to say that one could only trust the judgment of good friends, placing a grand hat on Mu Beiyao's head. Mu Beiyao felt utterly helpless!
"Wait! I'm on my way!" Su Xing exclaimed. The meeting agenda had already been finalized yesterday, and he promised to attend punctually.
Lu Xiangyi quietly added, "Count me in!"
However, no one expected that for such a significant brand anniversary, none of the three founders could be relied upon. The annual meeting was set to take place at the notoriously difficult-to-book Bai Zhen Hall in Shenghao Yujing. Since their brand wasn't yet renowned as the top-tier in the industry, this annual meeting would likely serve as an opportunity for them to expand their network.
Mu Beiyao meticulously arranged for her assistant to handle these matters. Tang Feng and Mu Beiming were united in purpose; with Mu Beiming's connections in this area, they had no worries about filling the banquet.
What they didn't anticipate was that this year's anniversary celebration would feature Shen Jingyu, the newly appointed president of Shen Group. He even specifically mentioned one of the partners, who happened to be his wife. By the end of the event, it had almost turned into a small auction.
They had prepared to showcase Lu Xiangyi's works from her year of travel! Many were eager to snatch them up, but in the end, they were outdone by a man who had never shown his face in this circle before.
