After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

Fu Cheng sat up straight, not in a hurry to get out of the car.

He remembered that He Ze had mentioned to him before his vacation that Li Haokai was attending a cocktail party over the weekend.

He turned his head and took out two ticket-like items from beside the car seat, handing them to Lu Shiyi, who was unbuckling his seatbelt.

"You might find this useful."

Lu Shiyi stopped what she was doing, and casually took it. "What's this?"

She glanced at it quickly. "Admission ticket?"

"Yes, it's a small cocktail party co-hosted by several tech companies. My friend has been helping to investigate Li Haokai, right? He knew Li Haokai would be attending such a party this weekend, so he helped him get two tickets, thinking they might come in handy."

"Your friend is really amazing. He's very thoughtful and considers things very thoroughly. He even thought of this."

Upon hearing that Li Haokai was attending the party, Lu Shiyi's expression darkened. She knew that people usually brought female companions to these kinds of parties, and Li Haokai would most likely bring his female secretary along.

What illicit affairs the two will engage in next remains to be seen.

In particular, the venue for this cocktail party was the Nancheng Hotel.

"Fu Cheng, please thank your friend for me. He spent a lot of time and energy investigating Li Haokai."

Lu Shiyi was very grateful to her husband's friend.

As they spoke, the couple opened their car doors and got out.

“He’s very capable. With his methods and connections, investigating a nobody like Li Haokai is a piece of cake and won’t take much effort. I’ll just invite him to dinner when I have time.”

If one is not capable, one cannot become his right-hand man.

"But whether you use this admission ticket, and how you use it, is up to you," Fu Cheng added.

He knew that Yao Yao had already mentioned her intention to divorce to her wife. In fact, any woman with a modicum of sense would choose to leave a man like Li Haokai who is both abusive and unfaithful.

In particular, they don't have children to tie them down.

Whether this admission ticket is used to intimidate Li Haokai or to warn him, it will have its purpose.

“Since it concerns Yao Yao, I want her to decide for herself.”

"Thank you, Fu Cheng," Lu Shiyi said sincerely.

Although she knew he didn't like her saying thank you, Lu Shiyi said it anyway.

Because this time it's not just about saying 'thank you'.

She suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek.

Fu Cheng's furrowed brows instantly smoothed out.

She does have some sense.

She sensed that he didn't like her politeness and even tried to make amends.

The couple entered the elevator together and went upstairs.

Tomorrow is the weekend, so Aunt Zhang went home in the afternoon and wasn't here.

It was still early, so Lu Shiyi returned home, changed into her pajamas, picked up Xiao Jiu, sat on the sofa, and started watching TV while petting the cat.

Fu Cheng looked at his wife on the sofa, hesitated for a while at the door of the master bedroom, and finally went into his own room.

He took a day off today, but a mountain of work awaits him tonight, including various important emails and contracts for him to review and sign.

We'll have plenty of time to get to know each other in the future, so there's no need to rush.

Fu Cheng comforted himself in this way.

Before we knew it, more than an hour had passed.

A man who works hard is the most handsome, especially one who is already incredibly good-looking.

Unfortunately, Lu Shiyi didn't see it at that moment.

After watching a movie, she got up, put Xiao Jiu in the small room, and then heated up a glass of milk for herself.

"Dong dong..."

Fu Cheng, who was leaning back in his chair to relieve his fatigue, heard a knock on the door.

He sat up straight, gently closed his laptop, and turned to look at the door. "Come in."

Since he opened up his territory, his wife would occasionally come to his room, but she would always knock on the door whenever he was there.

This is not just politeness, but respect.

Lu Shiyi walked in carrying a cup of hot milk. Seeing her husband sitting at his desk with a notebook in front of him, she guessed that he was still working overtime.

"Being a leader is really not easy. Even though it may seem like you're on vacation, you still have a lot of work to do!"

As Lu Shiyi spoke, she placed the milk in front of her husband on the table, saying, "Have a glass of milk."

Upon hearing his wife's words, Fu Cheng felt aggrieved again, "So, it would be nice if someone could give me a placebo right now."

As he spoke, the man reached out to pull his wife.

Judging from his posture, he was preparing to pull the person into his arms.

Unfortunately, Lu Shiyi dodged it by sidestepping.

She pointed to the milk on the table and said with a hidden smile, "I knew you needed a placebo, so I brought it to you. It's such a big glass."

Fu Cheng: "..."

He picked up the milk and drank it down in a few gulps.

"not enough."

"Shall I go get you another glass?"

She knew what he meant; she was just teasing him on purpose.

Lu Shiyi laughed without any restraint.

Fu Cheng glared at her, about to speak, but Lu Shiyi spoke first.

"Are you still busy with work? I was just about to bring you a glass of milk and then leave, I didn't want to disturb your work."

Fu Cheng glanced at his notebook; he was indeed still busy, and there were several documents he had to process before midnight.

He had a day's workload piling up to be completed in one or two hours. He was so busy that he was feeling a bit dizzy and was closing his eyes to catch his breath when his wife came in.

"I have a bit of a headache and can't continue working for the time being," Fu Cheng said softly.

It's not that he's trying to gain sympathy; he genuinely has a bit of a headache.

My temples are throbbing.

Although Fu Cheng was already used to high-pressure work, people are not machines after all.

"How about I rub it for you?" Lu Shiyi asked with concern.

After returning from her grandfather's birthday party, her husband went straight to his room to work overtime, while she leisurely petted the cat and watched a movie in the living room.

Looking at her husband, who was visibly exhausted, she felt a pang of heartache.

"Ah."

Fu Cheng closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair again.

Feeling his wife's gentle massage, he felt his throbbing temples immediately calm down.

"How are you feeling? Does it still hurt?"

"Much better," Fu Cheng replied with his eyes closed.

The weariness on her face had almost completely disappeared.

"That's good. Let me massage it for you a little longer."

Lu Shiyi gently traced circles on both sides of her husband's temples with her slender fingertips.

Just like the ripples that stirred in his heart.

This feels so good...

About ten minutes later, Lu Shiyi stopped what she was doing. "You should finish your work quickly and get some rest. I won't bother you any longer."

As she spoke, she picked up the empty milk glass and prepared to leave.

Fu Cheng wanted to continue to "greedily" enjoy himself, but in the end, he was only satisfied with a warm hug.

The moment Lu Shiyi turned around, he reached out and wrapped his arms around her slender waist, then held her tightly.

This time, at least she didn't escape.

"Let me absorb some energy before I go," Fu Cheng said in a gentle, low voice.

He wanted to let himself go and immerse himself in the tenderness of the moment.

But he couldn't.

What others might see as a job that could be done casually or slack off, he held the livelihoods and food on the shoulders of countless people...
