My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot
Chapter 335: I Miss You

Chapter 335: Chapter 335: I Miss You

"It’s nothing." Lu Youxi was a bit too embarrassed to speak out.

Usually, in other aspects, Lu Youxi’s eloquence was always strong, able to speak at length effortlessly.

Yet, when it came to emotions, she seemed to be allergic to romance, finding any sweet talk too cheesy to utter.

"What’s really going on?" Zhou Shuyan became even more curious, so he simply turned to face her and caught a glimpse of Lu Youxi’s profile.

This time, the two were taking the subway home.

Lu Youxi felt it was a waste of money to always take a taxi.

The subway was not very crowded at the moment, and their carriage was pretty empty.

"It’s really nothing." Lu Youxi thought Zhou Shuyan’s curiosity was quite strong. Couldn’t he just let it go?

"No, you clearly had something to say just now." Moreover, Zhou Shuyan had a hunch it would be something that would make him very happy.

So, he grew even more curious.

Lu Youxi had no choice but to lower her voice and say quickly, "I just think you’re quite gentlemanly and attentive."

Zhou Shuyan couldn’t help but smile, his eyes curving upward. He had started to figure out some of Lu Youxi’s temperament.

He knew this young woman was decisive and efficient in her ways, bold yet attentive to detail.

But in terms of emotions, for some reason, she always seemed to hold back with him and wasn’t good at saying sweet things.

However, her expressions were not so easily hidden.

In front of him, when she was happy or surprised, her face was particularly expressive, enough to replace a thousand words.

Zhou Shuyan’s eyes smiled as he tilted his head and said to Lu Youxi, "I’ll try to have more qualities that you like."

Lu Youxi: "..."

Fortunately, the carriage wasn’t crowded. Lu Youxi’s face turned a slight shade of red.

When the pair arrived back at the apartment, there were numerous cardboard boxes in the living room.

They were all Lu Youxi’s luggage.

Looking at them, Lu Youxi couldn’t help but sigh.

This really was a big project.

Thankfully, Liu Yushu had meticulously labeled each box for her, letting her know what was inside.

She could decide which box to unpack first based on the labels.

Lu Youxi took the box with her personal clothing and daily necessities and began to organize that herself.

The rest of the boxes were confidently left for Zhou Shuyan to open.

After Lu Youxi had put away her personal items, she hung the rest of her clothes in the wardrobe.

Lu Youxi noticed that there was a new wardrobe on the second floor.

"I moved the original one downstairs, the one on the second floor is for you to use," Zhou Shuyan explained.

Originally, he didn’t have many clothes, just enough to fill the space for show.

But since Lu Youxi would be staying over frequently, putting on a façade was no longer an option.

Thus, he brought over some more clothes.

As it turned out, sharing a wardrobe wasn’t going to be sufficient for the two of them.

However, while organizing Lu Youxi’s luggage, he found that she had fewer clothes than he did.

This young woman was very minimalist in her daily life.

It wasn’t about being frugal, but about genuinely not caring much for these things.

As long as she had clothes to wear and they weren’t old or worn, she didn’t mind much else.

She would rather devote more energy to studying and working.

By the time the two finished organizing, it was already 2:45 a.m.

Lu Youxi’s eyes were visibly dry and reddened with blood vessels.

Zhou Shuyan urged her to go and rest as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Lu Youxi was on vacation now, although Little Pink Book was still operating as usual.

But as the boss, Lu Youxi showing up a bit later tomorrow wouldn’t matter much.

Lu Youxi saw that Zhou Shuyan wasn’t looking much better than herself.

Lu Youxi didn’t know that Zhou Shuyan had stayed up all night at the company until 5 am today, just so he could go to Fengnan City to pick them up.

After a brief nap in the morning, he worked again until 10 am before flying from the Imperial Capital to Fengnan City.

Lu Youxi only saw that Zhou Shuyan’s eyes were also full of red blood vessels, but he didn’t seem tired at all with his ever-smiling demeanor.

"You should get some rest early too," Lu Youxi told Zhou Shuyan, "Your eyes somehow look redder than mine."

Lu Youxi then remembered, "Speaking of which, did you stay up all night to finish work so you could pick us up in Fengnan City?"

Zhou Shuyan thought to himself that Lu Youxi’s guess was spot on and nodded, "I missed you."

Lu Youxi was momentarily at a loss for words and didn’t know what to say.

She had asked if he stayed up late, and he came out with a "missing her." How was she supposed to respond to that?

But soon, Lu Youxi understood. Zhou Shuyan meant that he had stayed up to finish his work and come to Fengnan City to pick them up, getting himself so tired, simply because he missed her.

So, he wanted to see her sooner.

Even if it was just two or three hours earlier.

But even for those few hours, he couldn’t wait.

He just wanted to see her sooner.

Suddenly, Lu Youxi stopped talking.

It wasn’t because she didn’t know how to respond, but rather, with so much she wanted to say, she found herself unable to speak.

She lowered her head slightly, bit her lip in embarrassment, and took a small step towards Zhou Shuyan, then another.

Until she was standing particularly close to him, the fuzzy tips of her shoes almost touching his.

"During the vacation in Hexing Village... actually," Lu Youxi’s voice got softer and softer, "I missed you too."

Zhou Shuyan didn’t expect Lu Youxi to be able to say such things.

The person who usually couldn’t say sweet nothings now suddenly popped out with such a line, truly, he found it more heart-stirring than if someone who always says "I love you" had said it.

Zhou Shuyan looked down to see Lu Youxi with her head lowered.

For the convenience of packing, she had put her long hair up into a bun.

But by this time, it had become a little loose.

A few strands of hair had fallen from the bun, and through the strands, he could see the tips of her ears turning bright red.

Looking at them, Zhou Shuyan’s breath uncontrollably became hotter.

He was probably used to high-intensity work.

So even with red vessels in his eyes, he felt surprisingly awake and not the least bit sleepy.

Or perhaps, it was just because Lu Youxi was in front of him that he didn’t feel sleepy at all.

His gaze was drawn to the reddening tips of her ears, and his head unconsciously lowered further.

Until Lu Youxi could feel Zhou Shuyan’s hot breath against the tip of her ear.

She shivered. Since she had her head down, she didn’t see Zhou Shuyan’s approach.

Now that she felt Zhou Shuyan’s breath, she was even less inclined to look up.

Lu Youxi had the thought to step back, but just as she was about to retreat without having yet moved, Zhou Shuyan’s lips landed on the tip of her ear.

The burning warmth accompanied by a slight moisture made Lu Youxi shudder sharply, and her ear tips turned even redder.

Lu Youxi had just lifted her foot and took half a step back.

After creating a small gap between her and Zhou Shuyan, she felt a bit more relaxed.

"You should go to sleep early. I can wake up late tomorrow, but you have to go to work," Lu Youxi suddenly felt that being the boss was better.

Even with the risk of losing money.

But Zhou Shuyan, as a worker, still had to work on time. That was too miserable.
