Shuyan was still thinking about the woman’s strange behavior as she drank her tea. The word “niece” from Yan Youwei caught Chi Shuyan off guard and she almost spat out the tea. Afraid that it would be impolite to spit on the face of the young man in front of her, she immediately swallowed. However, she still choked and her face flushed red.
At that moment, Qi Zhenbai couldn’t be bothered to settle accounts with Yan Youwei. His gaze swept over his wife, who choked and looked like she wanted to spit out the tea, but didn’t dare to. He swiftly cupped his hands, pursed his lips, and said in a deep voice, “Spit into my hands!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t think much of it. She subconsciously trusted this man very much. If this man wanted her to spit, then she would. Yan Youwei had been about to hand over a cup for the girl to spit into, and was stupefied at his boss’s actions.
Qi Zhenbai had also been anxious just now and didn’t think much of it. When his wife was done, the tea dripped from between his hands onto the floor. He looked at the cup and pursed his lips without saying anything.
Seeing that his wife was still coughing, Qi Zhenbai wanted to pat her back, but his hands were filled with tea.
Yan Youwei suddenly said weakly, “Boss, Little Nie – Nie…” For some reason, under the boss’s incomparably cold and sharp gaze, he couldn’t spit out the word “niece.”
“Look after her for me, I’ll be right back!” Qi Zhenbai said as he got up. He was quick to leave and even quicker to return. When he saw Yan Youwei patting his wife’s back, Qi Zhenbai’s eyes turned sharp, but when his gaze fell on his wife’s little face, which was no longer red from coughing, he heaved a sigh of relief, and spat out the word, “Thanks!”
His boss’s gaze was too aggressive. Yan Youwei immediately withdrew, stunned by his boss’s thanks!
Before he could speak, he saw his boss sit down, pull the girl onto his lap and pat her back gently.
Wait, this posture was too intimate, and his boss was too gentle and considerate!
Despite knowing the boss for so many years, Yan Youwei had never seen him show such a gentle expression, which stupefied him.
Chi Shuyan was coughing so badly that she didn’t notice Yan Youwei’s sluggish expression at all. She was half-lying on the man’s lap, and she felt much better when he patted her back.
“Better?” the man asked in a magnetic but very gentle voice.
Chi Shuyan nodded. Seeing that there was still some water on her lips, he wiped it clean with familiarity.
“B- B- Boss!” Yan Youwei was so scared that he couldn’t even speak. He had assumed that the girl was his boss’s little niece, but given his boss’s intimate and gentle movements, there was no way she was his niece. He suddenly thought of his boss saying “my wife” earlier.
Wait.
Could this girl in front of him be the wife that Boss had found?
Holy sh*t! What the hell did he just say to Boss? Little niece?
Was Boss going to strangle him now?
Yan Youwei shuddered.
After a while, Chi Shuyan was really much better. She had been a bit thirsty earlier and had drunk a lot at one go. When she suddenly choked, her throat felt very uncomfortable. At that moment, she remembered that there was an outsider present, and she hurriedly got up and said to Yan Youwei, “I’m sorry you had to see something so embarrassing!”
Looking at the boss’s expression and considering that this girl in front of him was very likely his sister-in-law, how could he dare say anything? Besides, he was the one who had said the wrong thing just now. Now that Yan Youwei knew the truth, he felt very guilty. After stammering for a while, he stuttered, “B- Boss, is this Sister-in-law?”
