Xu Tian and Su Nuannuan arrived at the president's office.

The president's office at Xusheng Group consists of only a desk and a swivel chair. It was quite simple when the company first started, and as business improved and they became busier, they didn't have much time to upgrade it properly.

Xu Tian is usually not here; Su Nuannuan usually sits here. Now that Xu Tian has arrived, Su Nuannuan has led him to a swivel chair and is about to turn around to pour tea.

As soon as he turned around, Xu Tian grabbed his wrist from behind.

“Nuan Nuan, you really… it’s because I neglected you that you…”

Su Nuannuan turned around, grinning despite her tired dark circles, looked Xu Tian up and down, then plopped down on Xu Tian's lap and pinched his face with her two slender hands.

"What are you saying, Brother Xu Tian?"

As she spoke, she pinched Xu Tian's cheeks up and down, making Xu Tian's face turn slightly red.

This is a game that the two of us used to play a lot when we were little. It's rock-paper-scissors, and whoever loses either gets their cheeks pinched or their forehead flicked.

Xu Tian was slightly taken aback, looking at Su Nuannuan, who was arguing with him, with some surprise.

"Huh? They weren't saying you... haven't eaten or drunk anything for two days..."

"Oh my god! What is this?!"

Su Nuannuan stood up with a helpless expression. "There's an urgent project payment that's been waiting to go through the process, but there are still a few issues with the contract that haven't been resolved. I've been working overtime with the legal department for the past two days. You can ask them if you don't believe me."

"what???"

Xu Tian was completely dumbfounded.

"But... then why aren't you eating?"

Su Nuannuan sighed and took out a thick stack of processed documents from the drawer next to her, with some unprocessed ones next to her.

"Come on, tell me, where is there time to eat?"

"Huh? Is that why?"

"if not?"

"Oh, my dad is still in the hospital. Although Uncle Xu said he can definitely be cured, I'm still worried... And to be honest, I'm a bit too hungry and don't really want to eat."

Su Nuannuan smiled as she spoke and stuck out her tongue.

Xu Tian scratched his head. "Really? Ouyang Lin called me and asked me to come over because he said he had something to discuss. That girl just gave me a good talking-to, and I thought it was because of me... that you stopped eating and drinking. I was so worried about you..."

"Pfft hahahaha~"

Su Nuannuan laughed so hard she nearly fell over.

"Sorry, Brother Xu Tian, ​​don't listen to what the people below are saying. This girl is new here, just graduated, she's very quick-witted, and she loves watching Korean dramas, she really enjoys immersing herself in the storylines, haha~"

"As for Brother Lin, I really didn't want to eat, but he said that if I got hungry, he wouldn't be able to explain it to you, so he said that if I didn't eat, he would take coercive measures. So I just locked the door, and that's when he called you, hahaha!"

"call--"

After hearing all this, Xu Tian let out a long sigh.

"You...you brat, you scared me to death..."

Su Nuannuan chuckled, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry."

After saying that, she took Xu Tian's hand and started to act coquettishly, not quite shaking it.

"Actually, I haven't been completely without food or drink these past two days. I have biscuits in my drawer, and also bottled water."

"If I hadn't eaten or drunk anything for two days, I would have passed out long ago."

"Hehe~"

As Su Nuannuan spoke, she grinned, revealing a row of clean, neat white teeth.

Xu Tianbai looked at her with a blank expression.

Even so, cookies can't replace meals! You haven't been eating properly these past few days, and you've been staying up late all the time!

"Come on, let's go home for dinner, and then get a good night's sleep!"

"Oh no!"

Xu Tian tried to pull Su Nuannuan away, but Su Nuannuan clung tightly to the desk.

"Brother Xu Tian, ​​this document is too urgent. I've already finished most of it. It's very important to the company, and I need to finish it!"

"eat first!"

"No! Get to work first!"

"Eat first, then get back to work!"

"No! We're running out of time! We need it tomorrow!"

"you!"

"I'll do it! You go eat and rest!"

"???"

Su Nuannuan was slightly taken aback.

"Huh? You... don't tease Brother Xu Tian, ​​there's no such thing as letting the boss work while the employees rest!"

Are you an employee?

Xu Tianqi twisted Su Nuannuan's ear.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, Brother Xu Tian!"

"You still feel pain? Are you willing to eat and rest now? Are you willing to hand over your work to me?"

"I...I...I'll go..."

Hearing this, Xu Tian finally released Su Nuannuan's ear, sat down at his desk, picked up the remaining stack of documents, and began to annotate and revise them.

After a few minutes, Su Nuannuan was still standing there.

"I've already got everything ready, aren't you going to eat? What, Mr. Su, do you not trust my abilities?"

"No no!"

Su Nuannuan waved her hand cutely, then lowered her head and said, "But...but I haven't seen you in so long, I want to spend more time with you..."

These words felt like a twisting pain in Xu Tian's heart.

It seems I still...

Although Su Nuannuan hid it well just now, after all... those words still gave her away.

It seems the project is real, and so is Uncle Su's concern, but... what that little girl named Xiaofeng said wasn't entirely unfounded.

Xu Tian said with concern, "Don't worry, I'll come and keep you company as soon as I'm done. Why don't you go and rest for a while, okay? Be good~"

Xu Tian's sudden gentleness made Su Nuannuan's eyes redden slightly.

"But...but I don't want to leave your side..."

"Hmm... in that case... okay, you can take a nap in this office for a while, I'll call you when I'm done, and then we'll go back for dinner."

"But where am I supposed to sleep, Brother Xu Tian..."

Su Nuannuan agreed to the plan, but when the two looked around the office, apart from desks, chairs, cabinets, and some office supplies, there was not even a sofa, let alone a bed. The only place that could fit a person was the swivel chair that Xu Tian was sitting in.

Xu Tian smiled and patted his leg.

"Come~"
