Chapter 386: Chapter 386: I’m Very Hot Right Now

His lips were still pressed against hers, not releasing, which further affected her ability to think.

Lu Youxi’s lips felt searingly thin, and it took her a long while in the heat to remember, "Half-past three..."

Zhou Shuyan was pleased and with a tempting tone suggested, "Do you want to go take a look at my place near the office? See if there’s anything you dislike, I can change it."

Lu Youxi’s mind was in a blur, how did the conversation suddenly turn to this topic?

Zhou Shuyan lingered on her lips as he said, "I mentioned this morning that I would take you to see it tonight, but I don’t want to meet with Qi Sishenn and the others once it gets late. After the gathering, it will probably be very late, and I don’t know if you’ll still have the energy to go see it then."

Zhou Shuyan’s reasoning was sound, and he added, "And there’s also..."

"What?" Lu Youxi instinctively asked out loud.

Zhou Shuyan didn’t want to be the type to trick her into his home, so he ultimately chose to tell the truth, "If you go, I might not act like a gentleman."

Lu Youxi blinked, and her slow brain halted for a moment before she understood his implication.

Lu Youxi’s brain exploded with a "boom," and her already flushed face turned even more embarrassingly red.

Only then did she suddenly realize that her hands had been resting on his chest the whole time.

The interior of Chengzhou was always maintained at a comfortable temperature by the central air conditioning.

Zhou Shuyan did not wear his suit jacket indoors.

Lu Youxi faintly remembered that when Zhou Shuyan was waiting for her at the office entrance, he seemed to be wearing a suit jacket.

After entering the office, she wasn’t sure when he had taken off his suit jacket.

Lu Youxi felt as if she had memory lapses like when one drinks too much, fragmented from after her arrival.

At this moment, her hands were clutching Zhou Shuyan’s shirt, crumpling it.

Her curved fingers, through the shirt, touched his skin beneath; it was alarmingly hot.

Lu Youxi trembled nervously, hearing Zhou Shuyan inquire, "Will you go?"

Lu Youxi swallowed nervously, her breathing quick and hot, tremblingly nodding her head, but she couldn’t speak.

Her nod was very slight, and she was shaking with nerves.

Zhou Shuyan felt her nod but wasn’t quite sure.

He was also somewhat uneasy and asked again, "You mean yes?"

This time, Lu Youxi nodded while managing to utter a difficult "Mhm..."

The "mhm" was shaky and seemed a little coquettish.

Although the voice was soft, it was very clear.

Zhou Shuyan’s heart couldn’t suppress its turbulence.

He finally let go of Lu Youxi, "Can you still walk?"

Lu Youxi: "..."

Could she change her mind now?

What was it going to mean, following him home this way?

But Zhou Shuyan had already stood up and pulled Lu Youxi up, "Should I carry you?"

"No need!" Lu Youxi thought, Zhou Shuyan probably hoped others wouldn’t guess what they were about to do, right?

Zhou Shuyan then led Lu Youxi out by the hand.

Seeing his wrinkled shirt, Lu Youxi quickly stopped him, "Wait, your suit."

"No need, I’m feeling quite hot now," Zhou Shuyan said, disregarding the season outside, where the temperature was not nearly high enough to justify only wearing a thin shirt while strolling outside.

Lu Youxi: "..."

Why was he hot?

Lu Youxi understood perfectly.

"Put it on quickly," Lu Youxi urged, "Your shirt is all crumpled because of me."

Lu Youxi had not only grabbed the front of his shirt but also his back.

Now his shirt was wrinkled front and back.

The hem was even a bit pulled out, clearly indicating they had been up to something less than proper.

Shuyan looked down at his shirt as he heard the words, realizing it was indeed severely wrinkled.

Even more so than the suit jacket Youxi had wrinkled that time.

Shuyan suddenly didn’t want to put the suit on anymore, thinking how great it would be to stroll around the office like this.

To his knowledge, there were still quite a few single "dogs" in the company.

But as Shuyan lifted his head, he saw Youxi staring at him, supervising.

Shuyan: "..."

Shuyan had no choice but to let go of the thought and, with all honesty, smooth out his shirt and put on the suit, buttoning it up.

He concealed the wrinkly shirt under the suit, so from the outside, nothing seemed amiss.

Youxi sighed with relief.

Without wasting anymore time, Shuyan quickly took Youxi and left.

On the way, he made a phone call to Yu Zeqin.

Yu Zeqin was still hiding in the employee dining area, resolved to sneak back to his workstation when the lunch break ended.

He didn’t expect Shuyan to call him.

Yu Zeqin wondered if Shuyan had been scolded by Youxi again?

He cautiously picked up the phone and said, "CEO?"

"Cancel all my work until 3:30 this afternoon," Shuyan said, "I won’t be in my office, don’t let anyone look for me or call me, and don’t you call me either."

With that, Shuyan hung up without waiting for a response from Yu Zeqin.

Yu Zeqin: "..."

He blinked, staring at his abruptly disconnected phone, wondering what Shuyan meant.

Youxi: "..."

Shuyan’s words, would they make Yu Zeqin guess what they were planning to do?

But Youxi didn’t know that even the clever Yu Zeqin couldn’t guess it.

Because Shuyan didn’t say he was going to do something with Youxi.

Yu Zeqin also didn’t know Shuyan had left with Youxi.

Moreover, Shuyan wasn’t entirely wrong in one respect.

Yu Zeqin, a single "worker," was only versed in theory.

Not that useful in critical moments.

However, at this time, most of the company had witnessed Shuyan taking Youxi’s hand and leaving together.

"It’s almost time to start working, where is the CEO going with the CEO’s wife? Not working, huh?"

It was well known that Shuyan worked very diligently.

"They don’t look like they are fighting, huh?"

Amidst various speculations, Shuyan led Youxi to his car.

"Aren’t we just going to the place next to the office?" Youxi asked.

"Driving is still faster than walking."

Youxi got into the car.

She had just started sitting in Shuyan’s car the day before and was still getting accustomed to it.

She hadn’t been a stranger to luxury cars in her previous life, but this felt different.

Probably because she had maintained the persona of a "worker" so well before.

So now Youxi found it somewhat uncomfortable.

While Youxi was lost in her thoughts, Shuyan had already driven out of Chengzhou’s parking lot.

But, unexpectedly, he turned right and stopped the car by the side of the road.

Youxi, puzzled, saw Shuyan get out of the car and run into a convenience store by the roadside.

After a while, he came out holding a plastic bag with the convenience store’s logo on it.

The plastic bag was small, and it contained only a small item; since the bag was semi-transparent, Youxi couldn’t see clearly what was inside.
