Chapter 31

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

The person who they were both supposedly “greedy for their body” came over with a bottle of red wine. When Su Wen saw her walking over, she hurriedly pretended to show some tender loving care as she placed some vegetables onto Shu Yian’s plate. In the eyes of outsiders who are unaware of their true situation, it seems like a display of affection.

On the other hand, Shu Yian looked at the food in her bowl with a complicated expression.

She knew that Su Wen is a drama queen and so couldn’t stop her from acting, but if you’re going to put food on her plate either grab some from all the dishes or don’t do it at all! Who the hell only grabs a piece from four of the dishes and leaves the other four alone?

The most important point, however, is that none of the four dishes she chose is suitable for her taste. And they are all the dishes that Lin Ge had picked. Although she can eat whatever since she’s not a picky eater, is it a coincidence that Su Wen chose these four dishes?

She thought about it. The two of them have only just met and yet seemed to know each others’ tastes already. If they keep meeting like this in the future, it seems there will be no need for her to intervene. So can she go back to her own world now.

However, Shu Yian felt a little reluctant at the idea.

After she updates one more chapter, she can start collecting money immediately. She should earn a little and then leave, after all she would have written those 30,000 words for nothing otherwise.

Shu Yian thought about it for a while and finally set aside the discussion with the system about leaving this world. For now, she will waste her time acting with Su Wen.

Since Su Wen placed this food on her plate, she must return her gift.

Judging from Lin Ge’s dishes at noon, it can be determined that Su Wen’s tastes must be similar to Lin Ge’s in that they both preferred light dishes. So she added spicy food in Su Wen’s dish and not only did she give her spicy food, but she also put some chili powder on the food. She smiled sweetly at Su Wen, “I heard from the chef that this dish uses ghost peppers and is the best in Sichuan cuisine. I’m sure you’ll like it.”

Lin Ge watched the two acting affectionately and silently poured a glass of red for both of them. Her tone was indescribable as she said, “So it turns out that President Su likes food with strong flavors?”

Su Wen furrowed her brows and squeezed a few words from gritted teeth, “Yes, of course.”

Shu Yian was still looking at her and although she didn’t speak, the meaning behind her gaze was obvious.

Eat, quickly eat it!

Since the words have been said already, Su Wen could only open her lips and eat. However, she didn’t dare to chew as she swallowed the entire piece in one mouthful. Her face quickly flushed red and she hurriedly lifted her glass of red wine and drank it.

Shu Yian “kindly” served her a bowl of soup, “Here, drink this.”

Hot soup with spicy food, let’s see if I can kill you.

Fortunately Su Wen’s brain still worked so she didn’t accept her “kindness” and asked Lin Ge for a bottle of water instead while making an excuse, “The flavor is a bit heavier than what I usually eat so I’m not used to the spiciness yet!:

“Is that so?” Lin Ge didn’t suspect her at all and she grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the fridge before handing it to her. The other two then watched as the water disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye as Su Wen chugged it down.

“It seems that the dish is a little too spicy, even someone who loves spicy food like President Su can’t handle it. An-An, you probably shouldn’t eat this pot of dry-braised shrimp. Why don’t I make a lighter one for you the next time you visit?”

Su Wen immediately refused after hearing these words, “Little An likes spicy food even more than me, so there should be no problem and Miss LIn should not be concerned.”

Su Wen had originally planned to copy Shu Yian and just place some chili powder on Shu Yian’s food, but if Shu Yian couldn’t eat it she’ll probably just use it as an excuse for Lin Ge to invite her over again. So she could only hold her anger and personally peel the shrimp for Shu Yian.

The spiciest part of the shrimp is the shell so although the meat inside is also full of spice, Shu Yian couldn’t refuse it as the spice level is about normal.

Su Wen peeled the shrimp and personally held it up to feed her, “Come, open your mouth!”

Shu Yian stared at those fingers covered in a greasy glove and pursed her lips.

Why are you hurrying? What if I bite off your finger?

Forget it. Despite the smell of blood, she obediently opened her lips and swallowed the shrimp.

Su Wen wanted her to never see Lin Ge again so she patiently peeled a whole plate of shrimp. She didn’t even eat until after Shu Yian was full.

Lin Ge was already full and as they waited for Su Wen to finish eating, she suddenly remembered about the cake Shu Yian had bought her and asked, “Why don’t An-An stay for a while longer? Let’s cut up that cake and eat a slice?”

Before Shu Yian could open her mouth, Su Wen replied for her, “No thank you. Our Little An doesn’t like desserts, and we need to head back early as we have things to do tonight!”

Su Wen deliberately kept her words vague so Lin Ge would misunderstand them.

【Think about it, what would my fiancee and I be doing together in the middle of the night?】

【If Lin Ge has no impure thoughts towards Shu Yian then she shouldn’t react, however if she has other thoughts in mind then her face will change after hearing this.】

【This is a good chance to gauge her attitude!】

When Shu Yian heard these words, she couldn’t help rolling her eyes. This person is just too shameless!

However, Lin Ge’s reaction confused even Su Wen.

Her expression was indecipherable. She didn’t have the teasing expression of someone who heard a joke from their friend nor the expression of jealousy at seeing their lover being taken by another. Instead, she looked like she had heard an unimportant matter and then with such a blank expression she said solemnly, “I’ve forgotten that President Su had a lot of unfinished work today. It is also my fault for being neglectful in setting up a comfortable environment for you to work in. I should let you go home and continue your work there instead. If you don’t mind, next time I’ll arrange a desk for you to sit at so you can concentrate on your work when An-An comes again in the future.”

Shu Yian shook her head at this person’s thoughtfulness. If only Su Wen could be even half as capable as her, perhaps the heroine wouldn’t be lost.

She now seriously suspects that the heroine of this world has awakened and gained self-awareness that she is merely a character in a book. Thus, the heroine decided to run away because she didn’t want to be with someone like Su Wen?

Su Wen wanted to refute her words but refusing her polite words would seem unreasonable. Although she never wanted Shu Yian to step even a single foot in here again, she could only say on the surface, “Thank you Miss Lin for your kindness!”

Su Wen barely ate a few bites before she decided she needed to take Shu Yian away from here immediately.

She has been in the business world for only a short time, but she has met a lot of people in that time. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that Lin Ge is the most attractive woman she has ever seen. She speaks gracefully, has excellent manners, and a good temper. No wonder someone like Shu Yian who is obsessed with money would give up work just to see her.

Anyone would be fascinated by her.

So she has to get Shu Yian away from here as soon as possible, otherwise things will become troublesome.

Su Wen set down her chopsticks and wrapped an arm around Shu Yian as she politely said to Lin Ge, “Thank you Miss Lin for your warm hospitality. If there is a chance in the future, I’ll invite you over for a visit.”

Lin Ge understood those were perfunctory words, but she sent the two out with a smile. The wind was stronger at night and it seemed that a storm was on the horizon.

“An-An, wait a minute!” Seeing Shu Yian wearing such thin clothes, Lin Ge rushed into the house to grab a coat from her closet. She reached out, brushing back Shu Yian’s wind-blown hair behind her ear, and smiled as she offered the coat, “Don’t forget to return it! See you next time!”

“Oh, uh, yes!” Shu Yian was in a state of shock at her sudden movements and awkwardly put on the coat before saying, “See you next time!”

Meanwhile, Su Wen could only watch this all play out on the side. She had no other choice, who had asked her to wear this skin-tight shirt? She can’t just take that off and give it to Shu Yian!

As the two entered the car, Su Wen could still see the reflection of Lin Ge watching them from the rearview mirror. Then she thought about that person touching Shu Yian’s hair and she grew unhappy.

So then a certain someone stretched out their claws and rubbed Shu Yian’s head for several minutes. The perfectly good hair was quickly rubbed into an unruly mess until she was satisfied and her heart refreshed.

Shu Yian meanwhile had her eyes closed in agner this entire time and waited silently as she quietly removed her seat belt. This safety design was currently inconvenient for moving around and taking her revenge! Once Su Wen removed her hands, she quickly leaned up and rubbed the other person’s hair with both hands until their hair was all knotted together in a big ball on top of the head.

“Shu Yian, you dare!” Su Wen wanted to fight back, but her hair was being pinched by another so it hurt her scalp whenever she moved. Thus, she could only helplessly let Shu Yian do what she wanted.

“I’ve learned this from President Su, though?” Shu Yian looked at her “masterpiece” with satisfaction and even took a photo before showing it to Su Wen, “Aren’t my skills quite good?”

【Disgrace!】

【I’ve never been this humiliated in my entire life!】

Su Wen felt as if a serious offense had been committed against her.

【This woman is unruly and lawless! She pinched me earlier too! Does she think I’m a pushover that can be pinched so easily?!】

【Do you think that I wouldn’t dare to touch you just because I care about my image?】

【Well since neither of us like each other or want a relationship together, why should I care about my image in front of her anymore?】

Shu Yian had no idea what Su Wen wanted to do after hearing that sentence, but she wouldn’t dare do anything too drastic since they are in the car, right?

Before she could react, Su Wen’s arms circled around Shu Yian’s neck.

Su Wen didn’t want to exert too much force, but since she wanted to teach Shu Yian a lesson she still used a little bit of her strength, tightening her grip and causing Shu Yian’s neck to ache a little, “Apologize!”

“Why should I apologize?” Since her head was wrapped in the other’s arms, she tilted her head sideways to escape and reached out her own arms to squeeze Su Wen’s neck.

Su Wen deftly avoided her arms.

【Why?】

【Because you didn’t even say anything before going to see Lin Ge!】

Realizing that perhaps her thoughts went down the wrong path, Su Wen quickly amended them as she spoke out loud, “Because you pinched me earlier this afternoon!”

Shu Yian snorted coldly. Tsk, tsk, they haven’t even done anything and this woman is already jealous of a future wife. If she actually does get together with Lin Ge in the future, won’t this woman’s jealousy overturn an entire room?

She kept waving her arms towards Su Wen’s face but her arms were too thin and were easily captured by Su Wen with one hand.

“Apologize!”

Shu Yian moved her neck slowly through the grip, leaning downwards before opening her mouth and taking a big bite on Su Wen’s arm.

“Were you born in the year of the dog or something?!” Su Wen hissed and immediately withdrew her arm.

Shu Yian didn’t give her a chance to breathe before she imitated Su Wen’s previous movements and groped an arm tightly around her neck. She also used her other hand to pinch her lips and prevent her from retaliating with a bite of her own.

“I am….” Before she could finish speaking, the driver in the front row, who couldn’t stand seeing these two act like this anymore, made a sharp turn.

【Honestly, you two are only this childish in front of each other. Why can’t you two understand the other’s intentions?】

【Make you give each other a kiss!】

Then the two childish people’s heads collided with a loud bang until they were knocked dizzy.

Author’s notes:

President Su has something to say: “Who hasn’t seen the teasing trope before? But why is it that others get to accidentally kiss when they encounter this troupe? Yet when it’s my turn, our heads only bleed instead?
