Fu Qixiu was adamant, "That’s right, it has to do with you."
Su Ran was confused, "But I didn’t do anything!"
Fu Qixiu threw a tantrum, "I don’t care, I don’t care! It’s because of you, because of you, that everyone in the company’s lives are hanging by a thread."
Su Ran’s lips twitched slightly, what kind of bizarre metaphor was that?
"So, what do you want to do about it?"
No sooner had she spoken than a stack of documents appeared in her arms, filling her embrace.
"These things are what the heads of each department were supposed to give to my brother, and now they’re given to you. Sister-in-law, including everyone in the company, our lives are now in your hands, you have to take responsibility for us!"
However, before Su Ran could say much, she saw Fu Qixiu turn around and run away, scattering his steps.
In a moment, he was gone!
Was this a scenario where trouble fell from the sky while she was just sitting at home?
She clearly hadn’t done anything at all!
Fortunately, she had come today with trophies in hand.
With a resigned face, Su Ran knocked on the door of Fu Qiyuan’s office.
When the door opened, the man was sitting in his office chair, staring intently at the computer screen, his expression icy and stern.
At the sound of the door opening, that face, capable of captivating all creation, suddenly lifted, his gaze as sharp as a knife, without a hint of warmth, and even chillier between the brows.
Even with mental preparation, Su Ran couldn’t help but shiver.
Fu Qixiu was not wrong; Fu Qiyuan’s current state was unprecedented.
With just one look, she felt her entire body enveloped by a ghastly and chilling aura.
The man seated in the chair was the spitting image of Yama seeking to take her life.
Yet when Fu Qiyuan saw Su Ran, the atmosphere around him shifted in an instant.
The air, previously grim and frosty, blossomed into spring warmth, like a breeze skimming over the lake’s surface.
Upon noticing the documents in her hand, he immediately stood up from his chair, his tall figure instantly towering, his presence imposing, as he walked towards Su Ran without hesitation.
"Why are you carrying so many things?"
He took the items from her hands, placed them on the desk, and gently said.
Su Ran took a deep breath, "The idiot said these are items department heads were supposed to give to you."
Fu Qiyuan frowned, "Why are you the one bringing them in?"
Su Ran tugged at her lips, "I just happened to run into him at the door, so I helped out."
Having said that, she looked towards Fu Qiyuan again and asked:
"Am I interrupting your work?"
Fu Qiyuan shook his head with a smile, "Not at all."
Relieved by his words, a smile also spread across Su Ran’s face.
Fu Qiyuan pulled her to sit down on the sofa, "Weren’t you out shopping? Why the sudden visit?"
Gazing at him, Su Ran blinked, "Surprise inspection."
"Surprise inspection?" Fu Qiyuan raised an eyebrow at her and chuckled softly:
Su Ran nodded, "That’s right! Is that not okay?"
Fu Qiyuan smiled, his tone rising slightly, "Of course, it’s okay, it would be best to come and check every day."
"Really? Then you better be careful, oh, right."
Speaking, Su Ran picked up the bag she had tossed on the sofa, rifled through it for a box, and turned to hand it to Fu Qiyuan.
Fu Qiyuan was momentarily stunned, "What is this?"
Clearing her throat, Su Ran looked away.
"I saw it while shopping with Zhichen and thought it looked pretty good, so I bought it."
Fu Qiyuan’s dark eyes flickered slightly, "For me?"
Embarrassed, Su Ran touched her nose, "Well, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing..."
"Oh, I see." Fu Qiyuan hooked his lips into a smile that surfaced on his face, the uplifted tone revealing his pleasure at the moment.
"Open it and see, see if you like it."
The moment Su Ran finished speaking, Fu Qiyuan’s voice followed without hesitation.
How could he not like something she personally bought for him?
Hearing this, Su Ran couldn’t help but mutter, "You haven’t even looked at it, how do you know you like it?"
Fu Qiyuan rubbed her head, his face full of indulgence:
"As long as it’s bought by you, I like it no matter what it is."
Su Ran’s lips couldn’t help but curve upward, her eyes bending into crescents.
It was she who bought a gift for a man, but why did it feel like she was happier than him?
"Open it and have a look." Su Ran urged again.
The man nodded, opened the box, and a pair of sparkling diamond cufflinks caught his eye.
Instantly, the smile at the bottom of his eyes deepened.
He turned his head, looked at the girl’s expectant eyes, and smiled:
"Shall I put them on for you to see?"
Su Ran’s eyes brightened, and she nodded repeatedly, "Yes, please do!"
Fu Qiyuan smirked, passed the box to her, raised his wrist, took the cufflinks off his shirt and placed them on the coffee table, then raised his hand to undo the other side.
The man’s eyes were slightly downcast, and from her angle, she could clearly see his thick and long eyelashes.
The exceedingly handsome face looked somewhat nonchalant, his movements graceful and stylish, exuding an enchanting masculine charm.
Su Ran’s cheeks started to turn red, imperceptibly, her eyes unwaveringly fixed on the man.
This feast of beauty...
Zhichen was right; she preferred watching him undo his cufflinks over the act of wearing them...
Fu Qiyuan was always paying attention to the girl, and her entranced look pleased him, "The cufflinks."
At the sound of his deep voice, Su Ran abruptly came to her senses and quickly passed the cufflinks to him.
However, Fu Qiyuan did not reach out to take them, but instead, stretched out his wrist.
Su Ran looked puzzled, only to hear the man say:
"Help me put them on."
Su Ran’s eyes sparkled with eagerness, and she nodded happily.
The shank of the cufflink passed through the shirt cuff, arranging the end of the cuff neatly before locking the cufflink in place.
Then came the other side, a series of actions without any pause, completed in one go.
Su Ran nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile, "Looks like my eyesight isn’t bad."
Fu Qiyuan chuckled softly, bent down to kiss her lips, "Hmm, quite impressive."
His deep, magnetic voice carried an indescribably indulgent tone, sending a shiver down Su Ran’s spine.
Fu Qiyuan’s gaze then fell on the bag on the sofa, and he softly said:
"Did you only buy for me? Didn’t you see something you liked for yourself?"
Su Ran pursed her lips and, after a long while, took another box out of the bag.
Under the man’s gaze, she slowly opened it, revealing a pair of matching earrings in front of them both.
Fu Qiyuan’s deep eyes were illuminated by the light of the diamonds, sparkling resplendently.
Even though he rarely paid attention to jewelry, he could tell that these earrings and the cufflinks on his wrist were a couple’s set.
Couple’s set, three words that elated the heart.
"I used to find this kind of thing quite childish, but now, I couldn’t help but want to buy it. Do you think I’m childish too?"
Fu Qiyuan pulled the girl into his embrace, his heart brimming with surprise and excitement.
"I love your childishness, very much so."
Hearing this, Su Ran couldn’t help but let out a light laugh.
"You always go along with me , aren’t you afraid that one day you might really spoil me rotten?"
Fu Qiyuan chuckled lowly, leaned in close to her, "Spoiling you rotten is my goal, and moreover, I just like indulging you."
