Fang Li tilted her head back against the door, a smile playing on her lips: "Sorry, I really couldn't help it. I was genuinely surprised that President Han, who is so serious and aloof in front of outsiders, could actually be like this..."

She thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "The cute side."

"cute?"

In all my life, no one has ever used those two words to describe him.

This woman...

"Cute, right?"

He chuckled, a meaningful smile suddenly curving his lips. He gripped her wrist, pinning her tightly against the door, his breath heavy and husky: "It's already late, so why don't I just skip the day and let Mrs. Han see just how adorable her husband really is, hmm?"

"......"

His hard body pressed tightly against hers.

Fang Li shifted restlessly. The man's eyes, which held a half-smile, deepened. Seeing the smile fade from her eyes and a hint of surprise appear on her face, he slightly curved his lips and slowly approached her with a heavy shoulder.

"First.......!"

Just as their breaths were about to mingle again, Aunt Rong's voice, which had just begun to rang out from the stairwell, abruptly stopped.

Fang Li immediately spotted Aunt Rong, who was covering her mouth and looking surprised.

Thinking of their current position, her expression changed drastically. Ignoring the fact that her hands were still restrained, she hunched her head and snuggled into the man's arms.

"Aunt Rong is here! Quick, let me go!"

The woman's voice came muffledly from inside her arms.

Seeing the woman's reddened ears, Han Xi twitched his brow and released her hand. Just as he was about to pull her into his arms, the woman, like a slippery eel, instantly darted into the study.

The folder by the door was kicked out, and then, with a bang, the study door was slammed shut from the inside.

"..."

A gust of cold wind swept over me, and the heavy door was right in front of me.

Han Xi paused, then frowned and looked down at his feet.

After a long while, he bent down with a helpless expression to pick up the documents and turned to look at Aunt Rong.

Aunt Rong was stunned, standing there stiffly, her well-maintained face showing embarrassment.

"I, um, sir... Assistant Lin has arrived."

After finally regaining her composure, Aunt Rong finished her report in fits and starts, and then disappeared into the stairwell at the fastest speed she had ever seen.

She finally managed to get downstairs in one breath, then leaned on the handrail and let out a slight sigh of relief.

The gentleman and lady were just now...

Whoops!

What a terrible thing to do!

How could she possibly give this to someone like that... It's such a bad coincidence!

Sir, you're not angry, are you?

Aunt Rong recalled Han Xi's expression just now; it seemed that his complexion was alright.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Then, my mind was filled with even more curiosity.

She had served her husband for over a decade, coming to this villa on the hillside as soon as it was built, and had never seen any woman appear beside him that could be described as having an ambiguous relationship, let alone engaging in such intimate actions.

She had watched her husband grow up. He was a little adult from a young age, mature and calm. Even when facing Chairman Han, whom he least wanted to mention, he never revealed his true emotions.

Only in front of his wife...

Since having a wife, she has almost lost count of how many different emotions she has seen in her husband.

Anger, frustration, joy, worry, happiness... and right now, this involuntary emotion.

The past month has been the most vibrant month she has seen her husband. It seems that before he was just a walking shell, he has become complete and like a normal person only after having his wife.

Aunt Rong glanced back at the silent staircase.

Thinking of the reactions of the two people upstairs, she couldn't help but chuckle to herself with a hint of happiness.

The couple's relationship has progressed rapidly, and it seems that their hillside villa may soon welcome a new little master!

No!

She had to hurry up and call Lao Ding to tell him to come back as soon as possible, because the children's playground planned for the open space in the backyard could start construction!

Aunt Rong walked happily toward her room.

In the living room, Lin Mo, who was still waiting for Han Xi, asked, "Aunt Rong, where are you going? Where's the boss?"

Aunt Rong kept walking and hurriedly turned around, saying, "Sir has some important business to attend to. Please wait a little longer."

Something important?

Watching Aunt Rong quickly disappear into the room, Lin Mo frowned and glanced at the watch on his wrist.

It's almost 10 o'clock, and the bidding for the Taihu Bay project will begin in 15 minutes. What could be more important than a project worth nearly 10 billion yuan?

He waited blankly in the living room for a few more minutes, and finally heard footsteps coming from upstairs, getting closer and closer. Soon after, the tall and noble figure finally appeared.

Lin Mo looked anxious and hurriedly said, "Boss, the bidding meeting is about to start in less than ten minutes. Secretary Liao has already gone to the venue. We need to hurry."

"Well, let's go."

-

Let's talk about Fang Li again.

I watched from the study until Han Xi got into the car, and then the car slowly drove out of the manor. Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief and relax as I sat down on the sofa.

She tilted her head back, resting it against the sofa back, her beautiful face scrunched up in distress.

Did you act impulsively just now?

One month... no... less than a month, and this man had already broken through her defenses?!

Fang Li couldn't believe that she could be so fickle.

She stared silently at the ceiling above her head, and suddenly felt that the years she had been entangled with Song Yuchen seemed somewhat unreal, even... cheap.

Fang Li closed her eyes, her mind a jumble of thoughts, one moment thinking about this, the next about that, and before she knew it, half an hour had passed.

Just then, the cell phone next to me suddenly rang loudly.

Without opening her eyes, she reached for her phone, and only opened her eyes to look at it when she held it up to her face.

The screen displayed the word '漾漾'.

Her expression softened slightly as she swiped to answer the phone. The moment she brought the phone to her ear, an excited woman's voice came from the other end: "Pear, what are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer?"

Fang Li: "I'm a little sleepy, what's wrong?"

"Don't be sleepy! Sister, I've arrived in Beijing. Here's my location, come meet me right away!"

Fang Li slightly rose: "You've come to the capital?"

Wen Yang said, "Aren't you surprised? Aren't you taken aback? Were you just thinking of me?"

Fang Li couldn't help but chuckle.

"Look, where else can you find a girlfriend as understanding as me after losing me? Cherish what you have while you can, hurry up and get it done!"

Fang Li got up and walked towards her room: "What brings you to the capital this time? I don't believe you came here just to see me."

Wen Yang said, "Look, where is the most basic trust between sisters? Why can't I do this because of you!"

Fang Li curled her lips: "Okay, it's mainly because of me. Then may I ask, Mr. Wen, what is your secondary purpose for coming to Beijing this time?"

Wen Yang chuckled, then seemed to sigh softly, and said, "What else could it be? You forgot what Sister Nian mentioned last time? It's my brother, he's getting married."
