Su Wen felt like a scoundrel, charming the handsome young man with sweet words, luring him back only to cast him aside later.
“But not at the main entrance, right?” Su Wen blurted out.
“I can’t wait,” Zhou Hengyang’s grip was surprisingly strong, making Su Wen uncomfortable. He pulled her close as if trying to merge their bodies.
“Please, don’t be like this,” she protested, unable to match his enthusiasm.
“Go back to your room and wait for me obediently,” Zhou Hengyang murmured, gently biting Su Wen’s earlobe before switching off the car lights and shutting down the engine to retrieve his luggage.
Su Wen sneaked back to her room, relieved to find her sisters’ room in darkness. Luckily, they hadn’t seen her. Otherwise, she would have been mortified.
Sitting on her bed, Su Wen’s cheeks burned. She pinched them in an attempt to calm down.
Zhou Hengyang, now in the room, noticed her flushed face. Affection softened his handsome features. He tossed his travel bag aside and asked playfully, “Why did you pinch yourself?”
“Nothing… It’s nothing,” Su Wen mumbled, retreating into her blankets. ‘Why are you back?”
“I missed you, so I came back,” Zhou Hengyang said, sitting on the bed, his eyes fixed on Su Wen. His deep gaze was like an abyss, pulling her in.
It was hard to look away, she felt her heart race under his intense scrutiny. “Don’t look at me like that,” she stammered.
“I can’t help it,” he confessed.” He has been missing her intensely these past few days, wishing he could just keep gazing at her forever. Now that he’s back, how could he possibly bear not looking at her? How could he still control himself?
For the past few days, he could only keep himself from drowning in longing by working tirelessly, burying himself in endless tasks.
Internally, Su Wen howled. Was he deliberately trying to seduce her? Did he have to be so flirtatious?
“Let’s discuss something important. Why did you suddenly come back? Aren’t you busy?” She didn’t believe he wasn’t busy. He wouldn’t have left her alone in the office for four hours if he wasn’t.
“I am busy, but I had to make time,” Zhou Hengyang replied. He changed his posture, folding his long legs and resting his arms on them. He lifted his chin and looked into Su Wen’s eyes, a faint smile on his lips. “I found someone very capable. During my absence, he can manage things well.”
“Who is it?”
“Hengguang,” he replied. “He’s working as a part-time secretary in our factory.” Su Wen was speechless. Part-time jobs seemed to be quite popular in this era.
“Zhou Hengguang is impressive,” she remarked. In the novel, Zhou Hengyang was a legendary architect, one of the three giants of the Changhe Group. It surprised her that he had once worked as a part-time factory secretary, putting aside his identity.
Speaking of which, the Zhou brothers are unique. Zhou Hengyang had let go of his pride to be someone’s son-in-law, and Zhou Hengguang, a vice president, worked as a secretary in a small factory. They truly are real brothers.
This proves that they didn’t measure their worth by others’ opinions but earned their dignity through their actions.
“What are you thinking?” Zhou Hengyang interrupted Su Wen’s thoughts, dissatisfied with her distraction. He pulled her closer, poking her cheek gently.
His eyes glowed with intensity and desire..
