At 3 p. m., Gu Wancheng had already been playing Plants vs. Zombies in his office for two hours.

He raised his hand to rub his sore neck, yawned, and asked, "When do you get off work?"

"Are you sleepy?" Bo Yizhou got up and walked over, placing a cup of milk tea in front of him. The milk tea was bought by Li Xiao just from across the street from the company.

Gu Wancheng picked it up and took a big gulp. His eyes lit up; it was mango pomelo sago.

As expected of a mango pomelo sago dessert priced at forty-one cups, it's incomparable to anything else. In the past, he wouldn't have dared to even glance at it, which only proves that the people living near this shop are truly wealthy.

Gu Wancheng thought to herself as she looked at the label on the cup.

"Here, have a taste." He said, holding the cup up to Bo Yizhou.

Bo Yizhou slowly lowered his head, took a sip, and stared intently at him.

He felt extremely uncomfortable under her gaze, and after he took a sip, she quickly pushed him away, saying, "Go to work."

Bo Yizhou didn't move an inch, raised his hand and placed it on the back of his head, pressing it forward.

Gu Wancheng's eyes widened, the soft touch on her lips quickly disappearing. She touched her lips and looked at Bo Yizhou's figure.

"I'm going to take a nap. Remember to wake me up later." Gu Wancheng got up and walked towards the lounge. Before closing the door, she turned back and said this. After seeing him nod, she closed the door.

After lying down in bed, he put down his phone without hesitation. He wasn't the type to hold onto his phone and not want to put it down, as if he wouldn't live to see tomorrow. He preferred sleeping to playing on his phone.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep in no time.

He slept for almost three hours, during which Bo Yizhou came in once, sat next to him and watched him for a while, but he was completely unaware.

Yawning, Gu Wancheng got out of bed and brushed her teeth and washed her face while thinking about what to eat later. She wondered how Chaochao and Suisui were doing at home and why they hadn't called her.

Speak of the devil, and he appears; I had just finished washing up when the phone rang.

Gu Wancheng answered the phone, and Chaochao's voice immediately came on.

"Dad, when are you coming back?"

"How about I bring you some small cakes later?" Gu Wancheng said, wiping the water off her face with a washcloth.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

"Hmm, is Suisui over there?"

"Here I am."

"Can Suisui hear Uncle Gu?" Gu Wancheng raised her voice.

There was a Suisui sound from the other end, followed by a soft whisper, "It's okay."

"What does Suisui like to eat? Uncle Gu will buy some small cakes later."

"Either is fine," Suisui said after a moment's hesitation, then added, "Thank you Uncle Gu."

"It's alright, Uncle Gu can choose for himself then," Gu Wancheng said with a smile.

"Good."

"That's all for now, bye-bye."

"Bye-Bye."

"Bye-bye, Dad."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Wancheng went outside and happened to run into Li Xiao, who was coming to report on his work. Gu Wancheng was stunned for a moment, then went back into the room.

Li Xiao suddenly fell silent outside, then quickly finished reporting his work and left immediately.

Gu Wancheng leaned against the door, listening until the sounds outside disappeared, then the sound of the door opening and closing, before going out.

Li Xiao had already left, Bo Yizhou was sitting there alone. Seeing him come out, he said, "How did you sleep?"

Gu Wancheng nodded, "Of course it's good. That bed is just as comfortable as the one at home."

"When are we going back? I'm a little hungry." Gu Wancheng ran to the sofa again, snuggled up to a soft cushion, and said.

He pulled back the curtains and looked down. There weren't many pedestrians on the street, but the milk tea shop across the street was doing exceptionally well. He saw many delivery people coming out of it, each carrying large bags and packages.

I really want to drink it.

Remembering that she hadn't finished her mango pomelo sago dessert, and glancing at the empty table, Gu Wancheng asked, "Where's my milk tea?"

He didn't get lost, did he?

Sure enough, Bo Yizhou said, "It's gone. It's been sitting for a few hours and it doesn't taste good anymore. If you want some, I'll have Li Xiao go buy another cup."

"Forget it, it's not good to keep bothering him to run errands, even if you're his boss."

Gu Wancheng pointed and gestured because he suddenly remembered the boss he had encountered before he started painting at home. The boss was not only stingy but also very difficult.

Bo Yizhou frowned, glanced at his expression, and said, "You don't need to feel sorry for him; he earns four million a year."

Gu Wancheng opened her mouth, then closed it again, turned her head and nestled into the sofa without saying a word.

He became withdrawn, really.

Gu Wancheng seemed to hear Bo Yizhou's soft laughter in her ears. She covered her ears and became even more withdrawn.

An annual salary of four million—just thinking about it makes me green with envy.

Less than a minute later, Gu Wancheng's phone rang, and he listlessly took it out to look at it.

The sadness vanished instantly, and pink flowers began to float around her, causing her lips to curl into a smile.

Seeing the notification that four million had been deposited into her bank account, Gu Wancheng excitedly sat up, ran to Bo Yizhou's side, and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

Thank you, honey!

Bo Yizhou pulled on his arm and forcefully pulled Gu Wancheng onto his lap.

She lowered her head and pressed her forehead against his, her voice low and hoarse as she said, "Is that all?"

Gu Wancheng blinked, took a deep breath, and suddenly looked up to kiss him on the lips.

Bo Yizhou reacted quickly, placing his hand on the back of his head to hold him down and prevent him from escaping.

An ambiguous atmosphere filled the office, with the sound of running water and occasional faint gasps that were then silenced.

Gu Wancheng wrapped her arms around his neck, feeling dizzy from his kisses. She was starting to feel short of breath, and after the kiss, she leaned on his shoulder, panting heavily, her brown eyes glistening with tears.

He almost became the first person to be kissed to death; the way he died was truly shameful.

Bo Yizhou gently touched his burning cheek, only to have it impatiently slapped away.

What would you like to eat?

"Let's eat at that resort we had last time," Gu Wancheng said immediately after catching her breath.

"Okay, I'll have Li Xiao make the appointment," Bo Yizhou replied.

"That's more like it. Okay, I forgive you."

Thank you, baby.

baby!

Gu Wancheng's face flushed red instantly, she was so ashamed that she buried her face in his neck and remained silent.

Bo Yizhou felt the face buried in his neck burning hot, his arms trembling slightly, and his constantly fluttering eyelashes brushing against the flesh of his neck, causing a slight itch.

He curled his lips into a slight smile, but said nothing more.

After a while, Gu Wancheng's body temperature dropped. She stood up, pulled a chair without looking back, and sat down in front of the French windows.

He needs to calm down.

Bo Yizhou raised an eyebrow as he watched his actions.

After calming down completely, Gu Wancheng silently pulled the chair back and looked at the person opposite her with a serious expression.

"Don't take so long next time."

Bo Yizhou looked at him and gently shook his head in his gaze.

Gu Wancheng's eyes widened, and she slammed her hand on the table without making a sound. "Did you hear me!"
