Chapter 333: Chapter 333: The Least Skilled at Courting Your Favor
The speechless Yan Shao was once again defeated.
He looked deeply at her, then silently turned back into the room.
"Young Master, you two..."
The uncle Hai in the room naturally couldn’t hear what the two people were talking about on the terrace, but he saw their confrontational demeanor through the glass and thought it was bad.
"Uncle Hai, prepare one more guest room on the third floor."
Ignoring Uncle Hai’s concern, Yan Shao commanded and then rubbed his temples, looking extremely tired as he turned and went upstairs.
Uncle Hai could do nothing about their current situation and could only watch in anxious concern.
Zhu Qianying, who had been outside for a while, also entered the room. Before Uncle Hai could say anything, she asked proactively, "Uncle Hai, do you have a laptop I could use?"
She left early in the morning to discuss shop decoration with a designer. As a result, she only had her mobile phone wallet and other items in her bag.
Now and in the next few days, she urgently needs a computer to handle her work.
Uncle Hai turned to get her a computer, "Ying’er, the room on the left on the third floor by the window has been prepared. You can go up and rest first, and I’ll bring the computer up later."
Zhu Qianying thanked him, and as she went upstairs, she could clearly see the door to Yan Shao’s bedroom and study on the right. But she didn’t glance sideways and walked past straight away.
When she opened the door to the guest room, her phone rang. Picking it up, it was Cheng Ye, who she had not been in contact with for several days.
"Cheng, what’s up?"
Zhu Qianying felt a little guilty. After all, she had been sick for two days and then was overwhelmed with personal matters in the last two days, causing her work progress to fall far behind. With the promised deadline of the design drawing nearing, how could she not feel guilty?
"Ying Zi, I heard you’ve been sick? Are you feeling better?"
Cheng Ye, as a boss, is not ruthless. He called not to urge her to work but to care about her health.
"I’m fine now, thank you for your concern."
Zhu Qianying stepped into the guest room and sat down on the side of the bed.
"Ying Zi, you can take an extra half-month to submit the design drawings. The Spring Festival is in a few days. You should spend more time with Aunt Jing and baby boy. Don’t rush!"
Cheng Ye’s thoughtfulness touched Zhu Qianying deeply.
"Okay, I’ll try. Honestly, if I can’t make it, I’ll submit it later."
Her gratitude made her unwilling to drag it out. Thus, although she said she would submit it later, she had already planned to work overtime and rush her work.
"Don’t fob me off. Let me tell you, if you submit the drawings in a few days, I’ll dock you half a month’s salary. Take your time and do a good job, no need to rush!"
Cheng Ye on the other end of the phone seemed to have anticipated her thoughts exactly through her silence.
Zhu Qianying was speechless. Was her thought process that easy to figure out?
Yan Shao was the same, Cheng Ye was the same too, who easily guessed her thoughts. This feeling as if her clothes had been stripped off and scrutinized was simply too much!
Not getting her response, Cheng Ye on the other end of the phone added, "I’ll be back in L City on Lantern Festival. Remember to treat me well."
Mentioning this, Zhu Qianying felt a headache.
Cheng Ye had mentioned before that after the Spring Festival, he would gradually shift his focus to L City as he needed to prepare for the opening of a new branch here.
She wasn’t worried about work, but rather that relations between her and Cheng Ye would get complicated because of it.
She could understand Cheng Ye’s decision to expand his business in China due to the country’s rapid economic growth in recent years.
However, for the location of the domestic headquarters, Capital City was undoubtedly a more suitable choice than L City.
Yet, he insisted on setting up base in L City, the implications of which were self-evident.
"Cheng, I still think that Capital City is a better choice for the headquarters compared to L City."
Zhu Qianying was still making a desperate struggle, attempting to persuade Cheng Ye to change his mind about moving to L City.
"Ying Zi, as I said, L City has enormous development potential and space. Compared to the well-established Capital City, I see more promise in L City. Besides, the rent there is cheaper, and I can barely afford it."
Having heard him say this, Zhu Qianying knew she was helpless.
"Okay then, since you’ve decided, it’s not appropriate for me to say anything more. See you on the Lantern Festival!"
Upon hearing a knock at the door, Zhu Qianying quickly said goodbye to Cheng Ye and got up to open the door.
She thought it was Uncle Hai bringing the laptop, little did she know, it was Yan Shao.
"I just looked in the cloakroom and saw that all of these were new. It would be a pity to just throw them away!"
Saying this, he dragged a suitcase from behind him and walked straight into the guest room.
Yan Shao had once again outdone himself!
Zhu Qianying had no opinions to express, she could only watch him drag the suitcase in front of the wardrobe, expecting him to leave after placing the suitcase down.
Unexpectedly, he stood still in front of the wardrobe, reached his hand out, and opened the wardrobe door.
Zhu Qianying had a bad feeling, he wasn’t going to help her pack those things one by one, was he?
With swift action, Yan Shao confirmed her misgivings.
Yan Shao squatted in front of the suitcase, reaching out to grab the variously styled and colored lingerie, and Zhu Qianying felt like dying.
Her face flushed from her neck to her cheeks, and the most infuriating thing was that she distressingly remembered that the light blue lingerie set he was holding was one he had brought home for her a few days after their wedding.
She never wore it, not because it didn’t fit, but because she never had the chance!
This man must be doing this on purpose!!
Zhu Qianying was fuming, wishing she could rush over and tear the man and the clothes in his hand to shreds.
But her strong rationality timely jumped out to curb her impulse.
He was doing this purposely to provoke her or to frustrate her.
Since he wanted to, then she would not let him have his way.
Zhu Qianying took a deep breath, struggling to calm her inner annoyance and impulse. She deliberately strolled back to the bed seductively, leaning lazily against the bed’s headboard like a queen, looking down at Yan Shao as he clumsily took out each garment from the suitcase.
"Oh, it turns out that Yan Shao isn’t good at everything!"
Zhu Qianying smiled at him, making sarcastic remarks.
Yan Shao didn’t seem to mind her sarcasm, and he turned his head, his dark eyes staring straight into hers.
"Actually, what I’m least good at is not this!"
"Then what are you least good at?" The moment the words left her mouth, Zhu Qianying regretted it. This was obviously a trap, why did she foolishly jump into it?
Sure enough, Yan Shao’s next words made Zhu Qianying wish she could bite off her own troublesome tongue.
"What I’m least good at is pleasing you!"
