President, please comfort me.

Wen Qi thought she should let him shower first, and then lock the bedroom door after he returned to the living room before showering herself.

But Xiao He was not as she wished. The person who had just been so confident that nothing was wrong was now saying, "I need to go to the study to deal with some documents first, and I'll come back later."

Seeing that Xiao and Zhen had left, Wen Qi went to the dressing room, lingered for several minutes before finding a slightly conservative set of pajamas and going into the bathroom.

There was no other way; when she slept alone, she would dress however was comfortable, and her pajamas were made of thin and little fabric.

Half an hour later, Wen Qi came out after taking a shower and sat in front of the dressing table to do her skincare routine. Xiao He knocked on the door and came in after receiving permission.

Wen Qi turned around: "It's all taken care of so quickly?"

"Ah."

"Then go take a shower."

Xiao He smiled, "So soon?"

"What? Hurry up." Wen Qi didn't know what medicine he had taken today, so she turned her head to continue her skincare routine, too lazy to look at him.

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away."

When Xiao He came out after taking a shower, it was already ten o'clock. Looking at the small ball of flesh on the bed, he felt his empty heart being filled inch by inch.

With a smile in his eyes and brows, he reached out and gently knocked on the bathroom door.

Wen Qi had already lay down with her back to the bathroom. After hearing the noise, she turned around and looked at him in confusion.

At this moment, Xiao He stood at the bathroom door. The incandescent light in the bathroom and the warm-toned bedside lamp in the bedroom created a strong visual contrast, one cold and one warm, creating a rich atmosphere.

He was wearing a bathrobe, his hair was wet and clung to his forehead, water droplets slid down his temples to his chin, and then disappeared onto his abdominal muscles.

Xiao, as if adding unnecessary details, reported to her, "I'm done washing."

Wen Qi casually tugged at the blanket, covering the lower half of her face, and secretly swallowed, trying her best to appear calm: "Go out after you're done washing up, I'm going to sleep."

Xiao He looked at her and teased her deliberately, "Aren't you scared sleeping alone? Do you want me to stay and keep you company?"

Wen Qi was speechless, wondering why he had suddenly become like this, and forced a smile: "No need, thank you."

Xiao He sighed softly, "Alright then, goodnight."

"Good night."

After he left, Wen Qi quickly got up and locked the door. She instantly felt much more relaxed and comfortable, then lay down and continued reading her novel.

Xiao He lay on the sofa, holding his phone thoughtfully, searching on the screen: How to pursue a young girl?

A group of enthusiastic netizens replied below.

First floor: Get to know her interests and preferences, and create romance and little surprises.

Second floor: Respect her choices and opinions.

Third floor: Show confidence and independence, and demonstrate maturity and composure.

The guy on the fourth floor hit the nail on the head: Dude, don't worry too much about the age difference. Just treat her well, take her out to eat and have fun, and let her feel your care and warmth. It'll be easy to win her heart.

As Xiao He read, he muttered to himself, "That makes sense. I can give it a try."

At midnight, the door to the master bedroom was quietly pushed open from the outside. Wen Qi, huddled under the covers, quickly turned off her phone, closed her eyes, and strained her ears upon hearing the noise.

Xiao He tiptoed to the bedside and slowly sat down on the edge of the bed.

Looking at Wen Qi's exposed head, he reached out and pulled the blanket down a little.

As Wen Qi slept, she resembled a docile little white rabbit, quiet and gentle. Xiao He's handsome face couldn't help but stealthily move closer to her lips.

Just as Wen Qi closed her eyes, wondering what he was going to do, she suddenly felt a warmth on her lips, which startled her so much that she immediately opened her eyes wide.

She stretched out her hands and pushed him away forcefully. There was no anger as expected, and instead of 'What are you doing?' she blurted out, 'Deduct ten points!'

Xiao He was enjoying himself and was completely unprepared when she pushed him, causing him to fall flat on his face.

He simply sat down on the ground, completely unfazed by being discovered. Forgetting about maintaining his image, he sincerely said, "No, please don't deduct points. I'll apologize, okay?"

Xiao He sat on the ground observing Wen Qi's expression. She didn't seem very angry, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Why did you suddenly wake up again?"

Wen Qi sat up and looked at the disheveled man who had fallen to the ground, looking so pathetic. She suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

But she still deliberately kept a straight face and looked at him coldly: "What do you think? What were you doing sneaking in here? How would you know that the dignified President Xiao has such a hobby if you didn't wake up?"

Seeing that she seemed angry again, Xiao He was a little unsure and quickly explained in a low voice, "It's not that serious. I just thought it was your first day sleeping here, so I came in to see if you were comfortable sleeping here."

"Heh, do you even believe what you're saying?" Wen Qi didn't believe his nonsense at all.

"Anyway, if there's a next time, your bonus points will be revoked."

Seeing that he was motionless, like a wilted eggplant, Wen Qi softened her tone: "Get up, what are you still doing sitting on the ground? Go out, I really want to sleep."

Xiao He slowly got up from the ground, with a lingering sense of loss: "Well, I'm going out now. Cover yourself up properly, and don't turn the air conditioner down too low, or you'll catch a cold."

His concern made Wen Qi suddenly feel like she was the one who had done something wrong, so she could only awkwardly reply, "I know."

The bedroom returned to calm. Wenqi lost interest in continuing to play on her phone and wanted to analyze the situation with her friends.

Wen Qi had previously kept their relationship a secret from her friends because she was worried that Xiao He might break up at any time. But now that Xiao He had confessed, the situation was different, and she thought she should find an opportunity to tell them the truth as soon as possible.

Hey.

-

Ever since Wen Qi went on a business trip to Xiangcheng with Li Zhibin, she has felt that her colleague Lin Nana is always speaking to her in a sarcastic and inappropriate way.

But Wen Qi was always too lazy to waste time exchanging tea-making skills with others, so she simply ignored her.

She goes to work diligently every day, completes her tasks, and leaves on time. With Yang Xu by her side, she goes to work and eats together, and spends weekends with a few close friends, making her life very pleasant.

This Friday, starting in the afternoon, Ye Lin couldn't help but call to remind her: "Xiao Qi, do you remember dinner tonight?"

"I remember that."

"Okay, see you tonight."

"Wait, what's the address?"

"I told Brother Xiao the address, he knows it."

"I was originally planning to come pick you up, just the two of us, but someone got jealous and warned me not to bring you out in private, so the three of us ended up together tonight."

"Oh? Xiao He is going too."

"Yes, you go to work. I won't bother you anymore. See you tonight."

"Ok."

Although she didn't know why Ye Lin insisted on inviting her to dinner, Wen Qi couldn't deny that knowing Xiao He was also there put her mind at ease.

I had just finished a call with Ye Lin when Xiao He called: "I'll pick you up after get off work tonight."

Wen Qi said, "Okay, just stay at the same parking spot as last time, I'll come find you."

Xiao He lazily replied, "Okay, I know," agreeing with whatever his wife said.

Friday afternoons are always particularly exciting; an hour before the end of the workday, people in the office are already getting restless.

Finally, it was time to leave work. Wen Qi picked up her bag and said to Yang Xu, "I won't be having dinner with you tonight, I have plans."

Yang Xu asked with a gossipy look, "Is it your partner?"

That's right. Ever since Wen Qi told Yang Xu about Xiao He's confession to her, Yang Xu thoughtfully informed the other two people in the group. Since then, Xiao He has frequently appeared in the group chat, and "your guy" is what they call Xiao He.

Wen Qi said frankly, "His friend invited him to dinner, but he will go."

"Looks like you're almost completely surrounded by his WeChat Moments. Tsk tsk, you're doomed."

Yang Xu looked at her nonchalantly and without any worries: "Let's go, let's go. I'll just go home and fulfill my filial duties."

Wen Qi instructed, "Okay, let's pick up Lanlan together tomorrow. Xiao Nuo happens to have time too."

"no problem."
