Chapter 16
Xu Wenping woke up early to run. The feeling of sweat drained all the alcohol that was left last night.
He panted softly and heard the bedroom door slightly open. Through the reflection of the glass, Su Yurou, who was in her pajamas, yawned lazily and walked out.
Xu Wenping stopped and smiled gently. “Yurou, you’ve woken up. Breakfast is on the table. Come after washing your face.”
“Yes,” Su Yurou responded softly. Her hazy eyes had just opened when she saw Xu Wenping, who was half-naked. A perfect line had bloomed on his chest and abdomen. Because of the slight sweat dripping down, his entire body reflected the sunlight.
Su Yurou’s expression flickered as she looked at Xu Wenping’s knife-like face. She could not help but mutter in her heart, ‘So handsome and so abstinent!’
Xu Wenping, who was being stared at, looked at his body and asked curiously, “What’s wrong? Yurou… Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?”
“No… No.”
“I’ll go take a shower.”
Su Yurou turned around with a red face, causing Xu Wenping to scratch his head. He was a little confused, but when he looked into the mirror, he seemed to have thought of something, and his expression couldn’t help but become smug.
She looked at the breakfast on the table, and there was a rose beside it. Her heart couldn’t help but warm up a little. She picked it up and wanted to eat it. A sly look flashed across her eyes again. She began to play with her phone while waiting for Xu Wenping.
“Eat! It’ll get cold if you don’t eat it.”
Xu Wenping came out of the shower with a smile on his face. Su Yurou shook her head calmly and said gently, “No, I want to eat with you.”
“Sure.”
Of course, Xu Wenping wouldn’t reject such a perfect request. As soon as he sat down, Su Yurou took a bite of the youtiao and then moved it to Xu Wenping’s mouth.
Xu Wenping naturally took a bite without hesitation, only listening to Su Yurou’s “Ya! It’s an indirect kiss! How shameless.”
“Indirect?”
Seeing Su Yurou tease him, Xu Wenping was much more experienced than yesterday. “What can I do even if I’m direct?” he said with a smirk.
“Hehehe… Xiaou Rourou, your husband is here.”
“Aiya, aiya, don’t, don’t, you don’t know shame!”
The two of quarreled. In the end, Su Yurou still handed her lips over to Xu Wenping for a kiss, but she did not do anything else. Just as Xu Wenping was about to take another step, Su Yurou quickly dodged and said, “Don’t mess around… It’s still early in the morning, and I still have to go to work.”
Su Yurou leaned over and gently kissed Xu Wenping’s lips. Then, she blushed and went to wash up.
Not long after, Su Yurou, who was wearing a coat and high heels, walked out of the door. With a little more makeup on her face, she looked even more charming.
“Let me send you to work!”
Naturally, Xu Wenping had already packed up. Not to mention that this was what a boyfriend should do, even if it was for the sake of the system’s mission selection, before he and Su Yurou registered their marriage, the higher the favorability, the better.
Su Yurou raised her eyebrows and asked, “Is it convenient for you?”
If they had met for the first time yesterday, Su Yurou might not have thought much of it. However, after what happened last night, Su Yurou understood that Xu Wenping must have hidden something from her regarding his career. Of course, Su Yurou was not angry.
She was a smart woman. Judging from how smoothly the contract was signed last night, Su Yurou believed that Xu Wenping had hidden it because he didn’t want there to be any difference in status between them.
Xu Wenping came over and hugged Su Yurou’s waist, smiling, “What’s so convenient about being a chauffeur for my wife? I can’t wait.”
Su Yurou smiled weakly and stamped Xu Wenping’s face again.
If anyone else saw their coquettish appearance, they would probably have goosebumps all over their bodies.
Sitting in the car, although Su Yurou was a little tired, her eyes were filled with joy. She grabbed Xu Wenping’s arm and said softly, “Wenping, thank you so much for this. If I can work with the Imperial Corporation, I’ll have a chance to breathe again.”
“Why are you thanking me? It’s because you have the strength to begin with!”
Su Yurou smiled. “I’ve been working with the Imperial Corporation for the past two days, so I might be a little busy. I don’t have much time to spend with you. You won’t blame me, right?”
“How could that be?”
“Could it be that you’re going out to look for other young ladies?”
Seeing the suspicion in Su Yurou’s eyes, Xu Wenping quickly waved his hand and said, “No, no, no…My good Yurou, how could you doubt your own husband? Where is your company?”
“We’re here.”
The Su Yu Corporation wasn’t big. In a not-so-tall office building, there was an independent floor that belonged to her.
“Do you want to go up with me to take a look?” Su Yurou chuckled.
“No need. There’s still a long way to go… If you’re busy with the cooperation, I won’t disturb you. When you’re free, I’ll accompany you.”
The two kissed goodbye.
After watching Su Yurou go upstairs, Xu Wenping’s heart felt a little empty. After thinking for a while, he turned the steering wheel and turned the car around. “To Imperial Corporation Holding Group!”
It was also appropriate to observe his own company, right?
The distance was a little far. After all, Imperial Corporation Holding Group owned an independent office building in the most luxurious business district in Jin Hai City.
Although he had been living in Jin Hai City, this was his first time in this business district.
The environment downstairs was elegant. The signboard above the Imperial Corporation Holding Group was very big, so it was difficult to find it downstairs. After going around a few times, Xu Wenping finally found the way in.
He drove to the gate and beeped.
A muscular man in a security uniform stood guard at the side. He glanced at Xu Wenping’s car and walked over in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. He first saluted and gestured for Xu Wenping to roll down the window. Then, he said softly, “Sir, do you have an appointment?”
“An appointment? No…!”
“I’m sorry, Sir. You don’t have an appointment in the group. Your car doesn’t belong to the company, so you can’t enter the company.” The security guard smiled politely and was about to turn back.
This made Xu Wenping a little interested. He couldn’t help but tease him. He pressed the horn twice and said, “Hey, hey, hey… Can’t you see what car I’m driving? I’m looking for your boss! Do you know who I am?”
The security guard’s expression was normal as he smiled and said, “I’m sorry, Sir. Please call our boss. I can’t let you in without an appointment. I’m very sorry!”
“Eh… The car won’t let me in. I can park by the side of the road and go in myself, right?” Xu Wenping said again.
The security guard chanted in a standard manner, “The individual needs to wear the company’s employee badge or have an appointment certificate issued by the various departments. Otherwise, the Security Department will not allow them to pass.”
“Sir, I’m very sorry. If you still don’t leave, don’t blame me for asking you to leave.”
