“What?” A crease appeared between Su Yan’s eyebrows and his eyes gleamed with malice. He pulled out his hand from his pocket.
Su Yue hurriedly shrunk her neck and shielded her head with her hand. She gave Su Yan a fawning smile. “My mistake, my mistake.”
She realized that she had gone overboard with this joke.
Su Yan’s eyes stared unblinkingly at her, even though she had already pleaded for his forgiveness.
Su Yue pressed on cautiously. “Why? Why are you looking at me in this way?”
Su Yan curled his lips into a devilish smile. “Come to think of it, you seem rather free and bored at home. Come and work for me, then I don’t have to hire someone else.”
Su Yue couldn’t tell if he was joking or being serious.
Regardless of what, Su Yue defied him without hesitation. “No way!”
She pouted and defensively said, “Who says I’m bored? My online store is doing well!”
In fact, her business was really good.
She must be mad to abandon her own business where she could call the shots and come to his company to work five days a week.
“Besides, even if I want to work, I should be Ming Ansheng’s secretary. Why would I come to Flourish & Prosper?”
Su Yan nodded as though he had fully understood her. “A married daughter is like spilled water. But…”
He paused dramatically before grinning at her. “You’re still not married.”
“Annoying!” Su Yue flushed and prodded his shoulders.
Su Yan chuckled and ceased his jokes. “I have work to do. Go and accompany Xiaojiao.”
“Sure.” Su Yue nodded. “I’ll bring Xiaojiao for a tour and wait for you to end work.”
“Yeah.”
…
“It’s really congested at this time every single day…”
It was 6 in the evening and the vehicles were literally crawling on the roads. Su Yue grumbled impatiently to herself.
“Are you hungry?” Su Yan pointed to the cabinet and said, “There are some snacks inside.”
Su Yue shook her head. “I’m not hungry, but I’m restless.”
They had to wait for the traffic lights at each junction for a long time. And it didn’t help when the rest of the cars were crawling.
Su Yan studied Su Yue’s expression and he smiled affectionately. “Still a kid.”
Su Yue’s phone rang and she looked at the screen. It was Ming Ansheng.
She answered the call. “Hello.”
“Okay, I’ll go over.”
“Yeah.”
After chatting with Ming Ansheng, Su Yue hung up. “Brother, I don’t think I can make it to dinner with you. Brother Ah Heng’s grandfather passed away and Ming Ansheng is there to help. I need to go over.”
Although she wasn’t close to Jiang Zhuoheng, Ming Ansheng was his close friend, and she was Ming Ansheng’s… wife.
She was staying with him and they even have a daughter. So they should consider her his wife. Hence she felt that she needed to drop by.
Su Yan merely said, “I’ll send you.”
“Okay.” Su Yue nodded and she glanced at Xiaojiao, who was admiring the scenery outside.
She turned to Su Yan and said, “Can you take care of Xiaojiao? If not, help me send her home.”
It wasn’t such an appropriate event for a child to attend. Besides, it was already nighttime.
