Pro City.

Huayang Branch.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as Cheng Nian'an arrived at the company, Chen Mu greeted him.

He looked a little nervous, with a bit of regret after making a mistake.

When he saw Cheng Nian'an, he asked first before she could speak:

"Senior, is the burn serious? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

After accidentally spilling tea on Cheng Nian'an yesterday, Nan Yuheng immediately took her to the chairman's office to give her medicine.

Later, Cheng Nian'an returned to the apartment before getting off work. Although Chen Mu had been waiting in the company lobby, he was not able to see Cheng Nian'an yesterday because Qin Yan blocked him intentionally or unintentionally.

In addition, Cheng Nian'an did not come to the company this morning, and now it was the first time he saw Cheng Nian'an since the conference room yesterday.

Hearing the nervousness in his words and looking at the obvious concern on his face, Cheng Nian'an didn't speak immediately.

His eyes stayed on Chen Mu quietly for two seconds.

Then he slowly said: "No, it has been taken care of."

Chen Mu lowered his head slightly, seeming to blame himself even more.

"It was my fault yesterday. Mr. Nan was right. I couldn't even carry a glass of water..." He looked guilty.

"After I went back yesterday, I thought about it for a long time. I wanted to call my senior many times, but I was afraid that she would be angry..."

Cheng Nian'an looked away from his face.

Instead of comforting him immediately as usual, she remained silent and said lightly:

"It's okay, just pay attention next time."

A slight surprise flashed in Chen Mu's eyes.

At the same time, he also noticed some changes in Cheng Nian'an's mood.

He couldn't tell what had changed.

But it seems...a bit lighter.

In other words, a little colder.

Chen Mu's fingers hanging by his side were slightly curled. He was just trying to find a topic to say something else, but before he could speak, in his peripheral vision, a clear figure walked into the company from far away.

Nan Yuheng glanced at Chen Mu with a calm expression.

Then he looked away.

He didn't come towards the two of them. His eyes briefly glanced at Cheng Nian'an, then he withdrew his gaze and walked straight to the elevator entrance.

But when he pressed the elevator button, he said without raising his head:

"Near Ann."

Cheng Nian'an turned around and saw Nan Yuheng at the entrance of the special elevator behind him.

"Go up?" he asked.

Chen Mu subconsciously looked at Cheng Nian'an. He didn't know why. He unconsciously wanted to hold her, but Cheng Nian'an stepped aside first.

"Come up." She responded.

"Senior..." He whispered.

Cheng Nian'an paused.

He glanced back at Chen Mu and quickly said:

"Don't blame yourself, just be more careful next time."

Nothing else was mentioned.

Chen Mu watched helplessly as she followed Nan Yuheng into the special elevator.

After the elevator door closed, his eyes dimmed little by little.

Didn’t you say you don’t like Nan Yuheng?

Didn’t you say you don’t want to get married?

Then why did you agree to take the same elevator with Nan Yuheng?

In the elevator at this time.

Qin Yan stood in the corner, acting as the air.

Nan Yuheng glanced at the ever-changing elevator floors, and his eyes slowly shifted to Cheng Nian'an.

Finally, it was fixed on the place where she was burned.

"Did you apply wound medicine again last night?"

Cheng Nian'an nodded and replied obediently: "Apply it."

"Does it still hurt?"

Cheng Nian'an pursed his lower lip lightly and lowered his eyes slightly: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Soon, the elevator came to the top floor.

The door opened and Cheng Nianan walked out first.

"Near Ann."

She stopped and turned slowly.

Look back.

Nan Yuheng stepped out of the elevator and met her gaze.

The question was casual: "Have you thought about what I told you yesterday when you went back?"

What you said yesterday?

Cheng Nian'an's thoughts instantly returned to yesterday when he helped her apply medicine in the lounge.

Her eyes flickered, unnaturally avoiding his dark gaze.

He waited two seconds before replying: "...I will think about it carefully."

Nan Yuheng said softly "Hmm".

"There is nothing wrong with pursuing free love, but Chen Mu may not be a good man."

After saying this, Nan Yuheng left first.

Qin Yan nodded to Cheng Nian'an and followed closely.

Cheng Nian'an, who was standing there, turned to look at his back before walking towards the chairman's office.

Perhaps it was because Cheng Nian'an suffered some injuries yesterday, but today's project docking went very smoothly.

Nan Yuheng no longer has those strict requirements.

Even if there is a problem with the information and data submitted, he will not call it back, but will modify it himself.

If he needed to contact Cheng Nian'an during this period, he no longer needed Cheng Nian'an to go to the conference room to find him. Instead, he came to the chairman's office to find Cheng Nian'an himself.

Throughout the afternoon, Chen Mu watched Nan Yuheng enter and leave the chairman's office several times in the corridor. Every time Nan Yuheng entered, Qin Yan would deliberately guard the door to prevent others from entering and disturbing him.

Always create space for them to be alone.

Before leaving get off work, after Nan Yuheng and Qin Yan left the Huayang branch, Chen Mu took a piece of information that he had compiled in the afternoon and knocked on the office door.

Inside, Cheng Nianan was preparing to pack his things and go back to the apartment.

When she heard the knock on the door, she put down the coat she had just picked up and looked at the door: "Come in."

Chen Mu handed over the documents: "Senior, today's information."

Cheng Nian'an didn't look at it, just motioned to the desk: "Put it there."

After saying that, she looked at Chen Mu, as if she had something else to say.

But he hesitated for two seconds and said nothing.

Chen Mu, on the other hand, hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice:

"Senior sister, have you thought about getting married?"

"No." Cheng Nian'an: "Why do you ask that?"

Chen Mu scratched his head and said sheepishly: "I see that my senior sister is not as resistant to Mr. Nan as I imagined."

Cheng Nian'an couldn't help but smile, "I just can't accept him becoming my husband, but it doesn't mean he is my enemy."

Before Nan Yuheng proposed marriage, Cheng Nian'an was afraid of Nan Yuheng's return because of Nan Shiyu's relationship, but deep down in her heart, she really regarded Nan Yuheng as her brother.

What she couldn't accept was that the brother who was most frightening to her became her husband overnight.

***

At Huayang Branch, the progress of the project is proceeding in an orderly manner.

In the Jiang's headquarters in Haicheng, the usually lazy eldest daughter of the Nan family also took care of official duties for many days for the first time.

This morning.

It was approaching noon, and Nan Shiyu, who had been working for nearly two hours at a stretch, threw down the documents she had processed and went to the sofa, rubbing the sore back of her neck.

When Jiang Jingyu came back from the meeting, he saw his wife leaning on the sofa, lazily watching TV dramas.

Favor flashed across his face, he handed the document to Lin Rui behind him, and walked over.

"Who promised to help me handle my work?" He said in a teasing tone, "That's how you handle it?"

Nan Shiyu put down the tablet and pointed at his desk.

"I helped you read the documents above. It took me two full hours."

"Jiang Jingyu, the donkeys in the production team don't work so hard, why don't you want me to take a break?"

Jiang Jingyu chuckled, pinched the back of her neck naturally, and said in a complimentary tone, "Thank you for your hard work, madam."

Nan Shiyu snorted proudly.

Jiang Jingyu rubbed her for a long time before going to his desk to handle the remaining work.

Lin Rui first brought coffee to Nan Shiyu, then took the documents and went to Jiang Jingyu's side to wait for his instructions.

Around eleven twenty.

Close to get off work time.

A sudden incoming call ringtone rang in the CEO's office.

Lin Rui glanced south at Shi Yu.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw their wife casually slide down the connect button and put the phone to her ear.

In less than half a minute, the wife, who had been lazily leaning against the pillows of the sofa, suddenly sat upright, and a look on her face suddenly lit up.

"You're back?" Her voice did not conceal her surprise, but at the same time she was a bit surprised.

"Didn't you say you can't come back for the time being? Why did you return home so suddenly?"

Meng Jinche's voice over there was warm and smiling: "I missed my sister, so I came back."

After the sound fell, he chuckled and asked:

"Sister, are you free to pick me up at the airport?"

Nan Shiyu stood up immediately, "Of course, I'll go there now."

"Jin Che, wait for me at the airport."
