A whirlwind marriage leads to doting affection; the husband pampers her every night.

Shen Nian was taken aback, and quickly explained, "Hello, I am Shen Nian."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then a high-pitched voice boomed, "Second sister-in-law?"

Hearing Lu Xiaowu address her, Shen Nian's cheeks unconsciously flushed again.

She glanced at Mo Ze furtively; he was still looking at the documents and didn't seem to be paying attention to her.

Shen Nian turned slightly to the side and whispered into her phone, "Sorry, you said you were going to a bar this morning, I thought you were joking. I do have to work part-time at a restaurant tonight, so I can't go to the bar with you. That's why I'm calling to let you know."

Lu Yan listened to Shen Nian's words and pondered them in his heart.

If the second brother really didn't want his wife to come along and meet everyone, he could have simply made an excuse in the group chat to refuse on her behalf. Now, it turns out his wife is using his phone to call him, meaning he actually wants her to go to the bar with him.

It's just that I can't handle it myself, so I need to ask him for help.

Lu Yan, holding his phone, darted around with his eyes, and said feigning difficulty, "Oh dear, Second Sister-in-law, I thought you had agreed to come this morning. I've already booked the venue and notified everyone. Everyone was only willing to come to see you. If you don't come, I..."

He deliberately left his sentence unfinished, just to make Shen Nian feel that she had no choice but to go.

Moreover, everyone had come together specifically to see Second Brother's whirlwind marriage partner, and he wasn't lying about that.

They haven't been going to bars much lately, because they have adorable kids at home!

You can't bring a bunch of cute kids to a place like a bar.

Shen Nian still hesitated, "This..."

But she didn't know how to refuse Lu Xiaowu's enthusiasm.

She cast a pleading look in Moze's direction, wondering if the uncle could help explain their relationship to his brother again...

It doesn't seem quite appropriate for her to attend their party so abruptly.

Unexpectedly, Mo Ze didn't even look in her direction and was still diligently working on the documents.

Shen Nian felt embarrassed to bother him.

On the phone, Lu Xiaowu continued, "Second sister-in-law, don't be nervous. We're all very casual. If you have trouble asking for leave, give me the restaurant owner's phone number and I'll call him for you. Anyway, you have to come tonight. I've put together this gathering once in a while, how can it be complete without the main character?"

Holding her phone and listening to Lu Xiaowu's words, Shen Nian couldn't find any other excuse to refuse, so she finally replied, "Okay~ I'll call the part-time job company to ask for leave."

"Great, see you tonight, Second Sister-in-law." Lu Xiaowu happily hung up the phone quickly.

Then he whistled into his phone.

He said happily, "All done! Second Brother, you'd better thank me properly this time. I'll have to help you woo your wife!"

After the phone call was finished.

Shen Nian turned around to return the phone to Mo Ze.

As soon as she turned around, she met Mo Ze's dark eyes.

Mo Ze didn't notice her suddenly turn around, and his eyes couldn't avoid her gaze.

He looked away, clenched his fist and put it to his mouth, coughing twice to cover up the fact that he had been eavesdropping on Shen Nian and Lu Xiaowu's phone call the whole time, and hadn't been paying attention to the documents at all.

Shen Nian did not notice his unusual behavior.

He handed the phone back, saying, "Uncle, here's your phone back."

Mo Ze took the phone and asked casually, "Have you talked to Xiao Wu about it?"

He naturally heard that Shen Nian had already agreed to go to the bar with Xiao Wu.

However... I'd like to confirm this again!

Shen Nian sighed softly, her face showing some worry, and said, "It's just... your brother said the spots are booked, and it doesn't seem right not to go..."

Moze couldn't help but laugh.

He stood up and walked up to Shen Nian, unable to resist pinching her cheek, and said softly, "You really don't want to go?"

Shen Nian didn't realize Mo Ze's intimate gestures towards her, and simply explained, "No... it's just that it's a gathering of your family and friends, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to go..."

“What’s inappropriate about it!” Mo Ze replied, then paused and added, “Xiao Wu already calls you ‘Second Sister-in-law’.”

The implication is that you're not an outsider.

However, Shen Nian didn't understand what Mo Ze meant and continued, "Next time, find a chance to explain to your brother that I asked you for help, otherwise he seems to keep misunderstanding our relationship..."

Mo Ze interrupted her before she could finish, "What...what's our relationship?"

He suddenly bent down very close, his breath hitting Shen Nian's face.

Shen Nian could smell his pleasant scent.

She could hear her heart pounding rapidly in the left side of her chest.

The deafening sound caused her cheeks to flush red, like a cooked duck.

Shen Nian quickly took a step back, putting distance between herself and Mo Ze.

Otherwise, she worried that Moze would hear her pounding heartbeat.

At that moment, her mind went blank, as if she couldn't think anymore.

He moved his lips, stammering, "We...we..."

He couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

Mo Ze looked at her cheeks, which were so red they looked like they were about to bleed, and couldn't bear to tease her anymore. He straightened up, smiled, and said to Shen Nian, "I'll have someone take you to a coffee shop to rest for a bit. We'll go to a bar together after get off work later."

"Okay~" Shen Nian wanted to leave Mo Ze's office right away.

If she continued to stay in the same space with him, she estimated that she would faint from her racing heart.

That would be truly embarrassing.

Mo Ze called the girl who had just brought in the contract, and the project team's assistant came in to take Shen Nian over.

Shen Nian followed the girl out of the office and headed towards the JK Group's coffee shop.

The girl was also quite young, having only been working for two years. She was very enthusiastic and kept introducing the company to Shen Nian along the way.

She had some doubts about the relationship between Shen Nian and Mo Ze.

However, when they went in, Mo Ze introduced Shen Nian as his junior, which dispelled the girl's suspicions.

They only took special care of the younger female students because they were new recruits and Mo was always concerned about them, and they were also people who would soon be working with the company.

Shen Nian was also glad that Mo Ze had specifically mentioned that she was his junior, otherwise she would have felt quite awkward.

As they approached the coffee shop, the young woman excitedly said, "Let me tell you, our company's coffee shop is famous for its amazing cakes. You absolutely have to try them later."

"Okay," Shen Nian replied with a smile.

Stepping into the coffee shop, it was quiet and the environment was very nice, as it was during working hours.

Shen Nian sat down on the small sofa in the corner.

The little girl immediately brought her coffee and a small cake.

"You can eat here slowly, I'm going back to work now." The young woman settled her in and then prepared to leave.

Shen Nian stood up, smiled, and thanked her, "Thank you for your help."

"You're welcome. We'll see each other often in the future." The girl winked playfully at Shen Nian and left the coffee shop.

After the girl left, Shen Nian sat alone in the coffee shop.

I took a bite of the small cake, and it was indeed delicious.

She looked at the employees who occasionally came in and out of the coffee shop; they all seemed to be social elites.

Looking back on the journey, JK Group boasts a top-notch office environment and this cozy and comfortable coffee shop.

Shen Nian looked out the window at the distance.

He secretly cheered himself on.

She must work hard; one day, she will become a part of this place too.
