Wan Qingyun is Working Hard!

Wan Family (specifically where Wan Qingyun lived), study.

Wan Qingyun was currently processing a stack of documents—all in Braille. The Black Palace had its own power base, though not a large one.

But over the years, due to a lack of leadership, they could barely manage to break even.

Some enterprises were even operating at a loss.

Now that she had control of these, she naturally wouldn't sit by and watch them collapse.

On top of that, some of the Jiang Family's industries required her management.

This was a vital resource for rebuilding her influence.

But... it was bound to be exhausting and taxing.

About an hour later, Wan Qingyun set down the documents wearily, her body involuntarily leaning back.

But the wheelchair wasn't all that comfortable.

Just as Wan Qingyun was resting, a knock suddenly came at the study door.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"Xiaoxiao? Come in. Did you forget something again?" Wan Qingyun didn't think much of it, assuming Wan Xiaoxiao had left something behind before school.

But to her surprise, the person outside the study was actually Jiang Junyi!

Hearing Wan Qingyun mistake him for Wan Xiaoxiao, Jiang Junyi chuckled softly.

He pushed the door open, but made no sound.

Tiptoeing over to Wan Qingyun.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Wan Qingyun asked, a little puzzled.

Jiang Junyi leaned close to Wan Qingyun's cheek, deliberately dropping his voice into a low, husky tone: "It's me~ baby~"

Ding~ Face-to-face contact with Pure Love Object. Pure Love Points +10!

"Who?!"

Hearing a man's voice, Wan Qingyun jerked away, but quickly realized it was Jiang Junyi.

"Jiang Jun... ah!"

Her sudden movement was too large, and the wheelchair couldn't support her weight, tipping over sideways.

Seeing this, Jiang Junyi lunged forward, using himself as a cushion, wrapping Wan Qingyun tightly in his arms.

Of course, with his strength, he could have easily steadied the wheelchair.

But if he did that, how would he get close to Qingyun?

"Thud."

The sound of something heavy hitting the floor came, but Wan Qingyun didn't feel the pain of falling she'd expected.

Instead, there was a broad, warm chest.

"Qingyun, are you okay?" Jiang Junyi's voice carried a hint of concern.

"Jiang Junyi?"

Wan Qingyun instinctively reached out, only to find something firm under her hand.

Ding~ Pure Love Object touched the host's pectoral muscles! Pure Love Points +20!

"Ahem, Qingyun baby, if you want to feel my chest, you can wait until we get up," Jiang Junyi said, barely holding back his laughter.

"You!"

Wan Qingyun quickly pushed herself up, but a blush had already crept up her pale neck.

That fair skin tinged with red, delicate and alluring, made Jiang Junyi's heart race.

So... so cute!!

"Hurry and help me up!" Wan Qingyun sounded flustered.

"Don't rush. Are you hurt anywhere?" Jiang Junyi asked with concern, his large hands gently squeezing Wan Qingyun's jade-like arms.

"Did you hit anything?"

Ding~ Touching Pure Love Object~ Pure Love Points continuously +1!

"No... no... just pull me up already..." Wan Qingyun felt herself growing hot.

With her soft, delicate body in his arms, Jiang Junyi really didn't want to get up.

But seeing Wan Qingyun's flustered state, he softened in the end.

He said gently, "Don't rush, don't rush. I'll help you up right now."

Relying on his strength as a Martial Artist, Jiang Junyi lifted Wan Qingyun horizontally.

Passing the fallen wheelchair, he thought for a moment, then kicked it to pieces.

Only then did he walk over to a chair, sit down, and place Wan Qingyun on his lap!

Ding! Placing a Pure Love target on your lap is just too Pure Love! Pure Love Points +66!

"You... put me back in the wheelchair..." Wan Qingyun felt Jiang Junyi's ambiguous movements, her voice growing softer and softer.

Jiang Junyi glanced at the broken wheelchair and feigned regret. "Ah... the wheelchair just broke when it fell to the floor."

"Huh?" Wan Qingyun couldn't figure out how a fall like that could break the wheelchair.

And in her extreme shyness, she didn't hear Jiang Junyi's little tricks.

"Then... I'll sit in a chair!" Wan Qingyun felt that whenever she touched Jiang Junyi, her temperature kept rising and her heart pounded fiercely.

"No, the chair's cold. I'll warm you up." Jiang Junyi shook his head.

???

Listen to this—is that something a person says?

Wan Qingyun knew by now that Jiang Junyi was doing it on purpose.

"Bastard! Get up!" Flustered and annoyed, she lightly grabbed Jiang Junyi's neck and shook him a little.

Ding~ Pure Love target touches the host, a novel interaction. Pure Love Points continuously +2!

"Ahhh... murdering your Husband..." Jiang Junyi pretended to choke as he shouted.

"Hu... Husband?!" Wan Qingyun paused mid-motion, then tightened her grip. "Jiang Junyi!"

Jiang Junyi chuckled, stood up, and set Wan Qingyun down in the chair.

Feeling the touch of the seat, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But no sooner had she exhaled than Wan Qingyun felt a pair of warm, large hands cup her cheeks.

The scent uniquely Jiang Junyi's rushed toward her.

Forehead against forehead.

Wan Qingyun wanted to struggle, but then she heard that gentle voice, laced with a hint of concern:

"Dealing with all those documents... are you tired?"

She was silent for a moment, then stopped struggling.

The warmth between their brows, the soft palms on her cheeks, and the heartfelt care—all of it made Wan Qingyun feel incredibly at ease.

Her irritation gradually faded.

For a moment, the scene seemed frozen.

Both of them quietly felt each other's close, rhythmic breaths.

This moment of peace was something Wan Qingyun clung to greedily—no burden of survival, no thoughts of revenge.

Just quiet, serene companionship.

This man, Jiang Junyi, sometimes made her both shy and annoyed, yet at other times brought her an unparalleled sense of security.

"Why aren't you talking? Are you totally smitten with your good Husband?" Jiang Junyi blinked.

Wh... what the hell?!

Wan Qingyun broke free from Jiang Junyi's hands, gritting her silver teeth. "Ba... bastard! Don't ever say such cringey names again!"

This stinking man! It was that mouth of his—better off shut!

Jiang Junyi rubbed his chin. "Oh yeah? I really like it."

"Get lost!"

Ding~ The Pure Love scene just now was too heartwarming; this system couldn't bear to interrupt~

Host and Pure Love target, forehead to forehead, hands cupping cheeks~ Pure Love Points +50!

Jiang Junyi smiled. "I brought you a gift. Want it?"

"No!" Wan Qingyun turned her head away.

"Ah... but I prepared it with such care... I ran around all night for this, had people work through the night, didn't close my eyes..."

"Just to give it to you today..."

Jiang Junyi's tone was full of regret and dejection—a perfect Movie Emperor performance.

Hearing that tone, Wan Qingyun was torn inside.

She felt like there was a little angel Wan Qingyun and a little devil Wan Qingyun on either side of her head.

Little devil: Don't take it! This bastard will definitely use it to push his luck!

Little angel: Take it. He doesn't mean any harm. Besides, if you don't, all his effort will go to waste.

Little devil: Shut up! This is a man's trap!

Little angel: You shut up! They're already husband and wife—what does it matter?

Ah!

Wan Qingyun dispelled the angel and devil, letting out a soft sigh. "Then... let's give it a try..."
