Chapter 577: Chapter 577: The Young Flame Disturbed

Interestingly, though Zhu Qianying is the lady of the house at Tong Village, including today’s visit, she has been there less than ten times.

Moreover, every time she came over, she would mostly stay in the living room, or else, wander around the village. As for the layout of the Main Mansion, she didn’t have a clear understanding.

So, when Yan took her to his office, an office which had a layout almost identical to that of the CEO’s Office at Yanhuang Group, she thought she had the ability to traverse freely through various spaces.

"Where is this?"

Zhu Qianying confirmed that she was in full possession of her senses, therefore she retreated two steps to check the scene outside the door.

Outside the door, it indeed was the main mansion of Tong Family.

Upon stepping forward again, the interior layout was indeed identical to the CEO’s Office of Yanhuang Group.

"Mr. Yan, you are peculiar, why would you arrange two offices identically?"

Zhu Qianying confirmed her surroundings before eventually entering.

"Weird? It’s convenient this way!"

At that time, Yan was juggling two demanding tasks. In order to improve his work efficiency, he had two identical offices set up, with everything arranged similarly.

In this way, he wouldn’t lose track of what he was searching for when he was swamped with work.

These speculations were made by Zhu Qianying when she was calm, but whether or not they were right, she never asked Yan for confirmation.

But the truth was exactly as she posited. Yan had it designed in this way to save time, effort, and stress.

"Ying’er, sit for a while. I have some work to attend to."

After the couple sent their baby boy to school, they directly returned to Tong village. At present, it was still before eight o’clock.

Old neighbor Bai Xiangdong had arranged to meet at the antique market at nine o’clock. By the time Ke Kai picked up the person and returned, it should be past ten o’clock.

Yan, being busy as he always was, surely wouldn’t be free to accompany Zhu Qianying while sipping tea and enjoying snacks leisurely.

"Yeah, you go do your thing, I have something to work on."

The product drawings for the next season of the jewelry store had already been delivered to the processing factory. Currently what Zhu Qianying was busy with was a few private sketches on hand, and occasionally giving pointers to the two interns.

Once Yan said he had work to do, he didn’t pay any more attention to Zhu Qianying. He simply turned around and began a video conference with Qin Xiu and some high-ranking managers from Yanhuang.

Only then did Zhu Qianying notice that the huge bookshelf behind Yan could be converted into a large projector screen by pulling down a screen.

To avoid disturbing each other, Zhu Qianying took her bag and headed to the reception room, cocooning herself on the sofa to continue designing the bracelet.

The initial design of the bracelet was done rather quickly, but the refinement of the details required a lot of thought.

And these thoughts needed a calm mind to ponder over slowly. However, with so many events occurring recently, Zhu Qianying hadn’t touched this design for a while.

To a designer, every work is a story.

This bracelet was exclusively for Yan. The story in it was actually the tale of her and Yan’s journey over the past five or six years.

Zhu Qianying sat cross-legged on the sofa, wearing earphones, and listening to calm music.

After listening for a while, she felt that this music was perhaps suitable for her and Yan’s current state, but their past required more passionate and varied music.

So, she selected a fluctuating symphony. While listening, she gradually perfected the details of the bracelet.

When Yan and Qin Xiu finished their meeting and Yan stepped in through the door, he saw her holding a pen and sketching a totem. Even though the entire screen only displayed an enlarged claw, Yan could identify it at a glance. It was a dragon claw, and more specifically, the claw of a very majestic dragon.

"Ying’er?"

Yan didn’t want to disturb her, but Ke Kai had called earlier to say he was about to arrive. Ten minutes had passed since then, so the visitor should be at their doorstep by now.

Zhu Qianying didn’t pay any attention to him.

With no other option, Yan leaned over and removed her earphones, directly licking her ear.

The deafening music blared from the earphones, making Yan frown.

Under his tickle, Zhu Qianying shivered, turned her head, and glared at him. Coincidentally, she noticed his furrowed eyebrows.

"What’s wrong?"

Zhu Qianying originally wanted to reprimand him for interrupting her train of thought, however seeing him frowning, she thought something had happened, and promptly forgot about the reprimand.

Yan handed her the earphones, "Are you sick of your ears?"

For a moment, Zhu Qianying didn’t understand, "What?"

Yan tried the earphones on himself, and the moment he put them on, he couldn’t stand it any longer and immediately took them off.

"What on earth is this ghostly music you are listening to, it’s practically deafening."

Zhu Qianying snatched the earphones back, well aware that he was a businessman with no artistic inclination. She didn’t bother to explain, she just said, "You won’t understand, this is the source of my inspiration!"

Yan faintly understood the purpose of these tracks, but even so, he was still a little angry.

"Even if it is your source of inspiration, you can’t play it so loudly. It can seriously affect your hearing. Do you know that?"

Only then did Zhu Qianying understand why he was angry. She nonchalantly tossed the earphones aside, reached up to encircle Yan’s neck, pulled him down and kissed his lips.

She apologized in a soft and gentle voice, "Alright, I understand my mistake! I promise I won’t play music this loudly again!"

These days, looking at Uncle Bai’s condition, she increasingly realized that she had to cherish those she cared about.

Otherwise, she never knew when disaster might strike.

So, seeing him angry now, even though she felt he was making a mountain out of a molehill, even though he yelled at her, it was still warm for her heart.

Frankly, Yan was angry, and that’s why he barely managed to reprimand her. But now, she apologized so gently, even offering herself for a peck, his anger faded away.

His anger had long disappeared and was replaced by a more intense, fiery passion, stirred up by her light peck. He wrapped his arms around her waist, scooped her up into his arms and pressed her against his chest. Then, their lips and tongues intertwined, leaving Zhu Qianying breathless, as he couldn’t bear to let go.

Only until the sound of coughing came from behind did Yan reluctantly release Zhu Qianying. His arm continued to hold her protectively while turning his head, delivering a furious glare at the uncalled-for interruption.

"Grand..."

Ke Kai ducked his head, startled by Yan’s ferocious gaze, instinctively stepping back a few paces.

Truth be told, it had been a long time since he’d seen such a gruesome look in his grandfather’s eyes.

He was terrified upon making unexpected eye contact, being drenched in a cold sweat.

Yan’s good mood was spoilt by the interruption, and he was very displeased. He barked, "Get out!"
