Chapter 301 – The Seductress Blushes, So Cute He Wants to Touch Her
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Inside the Software Garden condo…
Fu Sinian took out a few plates and glanced at the dumbstruck people. “Why are you guys looking at me like that? What’s the matter?”
“Boss, that ‘Little Fish’ on your phone…” One of them pointed at his semi-darkened phone screen.
“You saw everything?” Fu Sinian took his phone and replied to Yu Manxi before looking at everyone.
He wasn’t the kind of person to show his expression on his face in the first place. He had profound features, so when he stared closely at others, it made people feel pressured.
Everyone looked at one another. They didn’t do it on purpose. This phone message directly popped up…
“Boss, be honest. Is that Little Fish the one next door…”
Fu Sinian crossed his arms. “Not drinking anymore?”
“Just tell us. Is it her or not?”
“Not drinking anymore?” Fu Sinian looked at the people opposite him.
Facing this kind of earth-shattering gossip, who would be in the mood to drink? It was already thrilling enough that they were living opposite each other, but it was even worse now that the thousand-year iron tree was blooming.
Fu Sinian walked to the entryway and opened the door. “If you’re not drinking, you can get lost.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Before they could react, this group of people was really kicked out by him.
Bang! He closed the door without hesitation.
“F*ck, come on, what gives? Are you really chasing us out?”
“Don’t you think that the boss was already in a terrible mood when we were in the car? I reckon that it’s because of this idiot. You said that people online wanted to sleep…” The person pointed at the opposite door.
“Didn’t we just read a message? He put his phone on the table himself. He’s so f*cking heartless.”
“I knew it! How could a cat have appeared out of nowhere on the overhead highway? He must have been jealous just now. He’s old and has such a freaking strong sense of jealousy too. If we had known, we wouldn’t have dared to gossip about her.”
When a group of single men was together, the topic of discussion would definitely be related to women.
…
They complained while waiting for the elevator. Because it was the 16th floor, the elevator stopped every now and then and came up very slowly.
At this moment, the opposite door opened once again, and Yu Manxi walked out again.
This time, she had changed into a long floral dress, a woolen sweater, and was even wearing a pair of black-framed glasses. Her long hair hung down her shoulders, and she looked like a university student, gentle and elegant. She was carrying a garbage bag in her hand and even had a bag on her back. She was probably going out.
“Hello.” Yu Manxi walked to their side.
“Hello.” All of the men stood as straight as a ramrod, not daring to look at her anymore.
It would have been fine if they had nothing to do with her.
Alas, if she became their older sister-in-law in the future, they couldn’t look around randomly. They knew Fu Sinian too well. He was usually taciturn, but just by looking at the Jaguar he drove, people could tell that he was domineering and unreasonable in his bones. If he was provoked, he could really raise hell.
When the elevator arrived, it was naturally empty.
“Please come in.” Yu Manxi thought that they were Fu Sinian’s friends, so she was naturally very polite.
“No, no. Ladies first. Please go ahead.” They declined politely before slowly entering the elevator. The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.
Their gazes flitted toward Yu Manxi every now and then. After all, they were not familiar with each other, so the atmosphere was a little awkward.
“Are you Yu Manxi?” someone asked.
“Yes.” Yu Manxi wasn’t a big star. She was just a small-time anchor, and most of the people who liked her were older men and women.
“Are you close with our boss?”
Boss? Yu Manxi suddenly understood. “Somewhat.”
Their relationship truly couldn’t be considered close. And because they weren’t that close, Yu Manxi didn’t really dare to send him messages.
“The condo opposite him has always been empty. I’m quite curious that someone moved in.” The few of them didn’t know what to talk about either.
“I moved in last year. At the time, the water pipe at home cracked, and he helped me. Mr. Fu is a nice person.”
The elevator soon reached the first floor. These people were going to the underground parking garage. Yu Manxi walked out of the elevator and said goodbye to them.
When the elevator door closed, they immediately exploded.
“Boss is a nice person? I must have gone deaf.” Fu Sinian was indeed a good person, but he wasn’t considered a nice person. “He enslaves us every day. A nice person? Hehe.”
“You’re not his f*cking wife anyway. Why would he treat you well?!”
“Don’t you guys think that a female anchor like her should have a housekeeper or someone like that? She actually took out the garbage herself.”
“Why don’t you talk about how the boss is from that kind of family background and say that he doesn’t even need to eat without being served and someone like Old Master Fu should drink dew?”
Everyone was speechless…

The next day, Yu Manxi went to the broadcasting station during the day and traveled outside for an interview. When she returned, it was already past five. She changed her clothes and called Fu Sinian.
Today was International Labour Day, and he was home all day.
[I’m heading out now. I’ll see you at the elevator.]
When Yu Manxi went out, Fu Sinian had just opened the door too. Just as she was about to greet him, the cat dashed out from beside her feet and ran straight into Fu Sinian’s condo.
“Niannian!” Yu Manxi was speechless. This cat wasn’t clingy with her, but it liked Fu Sinian a lot.
Fu Sinian bent down, picked up the cat, and stroked its fur.
“It likes to run around all the time and isn’t obedient at all.” Yu Manxi sighed and prepared to carry it home. This cat refused and kept a death grip onto Fu Sinian’s clothes while meowing.
Fu Sinian was about to hand it to Yu Manxi when it suddenly jumped down, ran straight into Fu Sinian’s condo, and refused to come out.
“Let it stay here. You can pick it up when we return.” Fu Sinian looked at the cat, who had already jumped onto the sofa.
“That’s fine too.” Yu Manxi felt a little resigned. This little thing is actually a perverted cat.
The two went down to the garage.
“Take my car?” Yu Manxi smiled brightly at him.
“Sure.” Fu Sinian didn’t mind, just that he wasn’t sure when she had bought the car.
Then he saw her pointing at a small Beetle. The corner of Fu Sinian’s lips twitched.
“The TV station is too far from home, and there aren’t many buses either, so I bought a secondhand car.” How could Yu Manxi have the money to buy a new car?
Fu Sinian’s legs were long, and when he sat in the car, his limbs were very uncomfortable. His mother’s first car had been a Volkswagen Beetle. It was too small and uncomfortable. He wasn’t sure why women liked such cars.
The restaurant Yu Manxi chose was in the city center. After all, she wasn’t a major celebrity, so she didn’t have to be so restrained when going out.
…
While eating, Yu Manxi secretly looked at him, and she kept feeling sweet in her heart. She had only entered the company for a few months, but she had suddenly become an anchor. There were a lot of rumors at the station.
The most exaggerated rumor was that she was the station director’s goddaughter.
She didn’t come from a proper hosting background either, and recently, it was the peak period for university students to choose their careers. A few beautiful young ladies from the broadcasting major had come to her department, and they were eyeing her position covetously too. She was under a lot of pressure.
At this moment, when she looked at him, it seemed like nothing was troubling her anymore. Fu Sinian was focused on eating, so Yu Manxi thought that he couldn’t see.
… Until he suddenly said, “You’ve been looking at me the whole time. Do you have something to say?”
He lifted his head and looked at her with a burning gaze, making her feel extremely guilty.
“N-no. I just wanted to ask you. What do you think about this restaurant? Is the food delicious?”
“You’ve already asked this four times.” Fu Sinian raised his eyebrows.
Yu Manxi smiled sheepishly, feeling extremely embarrassed. Can you not expose me?
Fu Sinian had already finished eating and put down his chopsticks. He just watched her like this. Now, it was Yu Manxi’s turn to be at a loss. She could clearly feel the person opposite her looking at her.
She was utterly disconcerted, her heart was pounding wildly, and her entire body was numb. She didn’t dare to look at him.
Yu Manxi kept drinking water to hide her embarrassment. Fu Sinian licked the corner of his lips with the tip of his tongue. Her face…
… turned red.
He thought that all seductresses were bold, but she actually blushed. She looks a little…
… cute.
Fu Sinian’s lips curled up slightly.

When the two of them left the restaurant, it happened to be raining heavily. They ran all the way to the car. Yu Manxi’s hair was completely drenched, and it stuck to her face, making her look a little disheveled. She grabbed some tissues to wipe her face and turned on the heater before heading to the condo building.
Because the cat was still at Fu Sinian’s place, Yu Manxi had to go over to pick it up first.
“Blowdry your hair before leaving?” Fu Sinian slowly changed his shoes and entered the condo.
“Thank you.” Yu Manxi was only eager to spend more time with him.
Fu Sinian took a hairdryer from the bedroom and passed it to her. Then he returned to his room to take a quick shower and change into his loungewear.
Yu Manxi’s hair was thick, so it took a lot of effort to blowdry it. She casually blew it half-dry, turned off the hairdryer, and prepared to pull out the plug…
“Hold on.”
Yu Manxi subconsciously turned her head. He had just come out of the shower, so there was still a heady heat exuding from his body.
Fu Sinian reached out to take the hairdryer from her hand. “Turn your head around.”
Yu Manxi obediently turned her back to him. The hairdryer hummed to life, and the warm air dried the wet hair at the back of her neck. The man’s slender fingers threaded through her hair, seeming to rub against her nape faintly, making her entire body stiffen.
The two of them were close to each other, and the faint scent of body wash on him rushed toward her face and enveloped her with a wave of warmth.
Her entire body seemed feverish.
When Fu Sinian saw her fair earlobe turning red at a visible speed, he narrowed his eyes slightly…
I really want to…
… pinch it.
He had very strong self-control, so he didn’t do it in the end. He didn’t have the experience of drying someone’s hair, so he just blew it randomly.
Yu Manxi’s heart felt hot and dry, and she felt even more jittery.
Her body seemed to be on fire.
Even her breath seemed to be scorching hot.
Accompanied by the blowing warm air, Fu Sinian could clearly smell the shampoo in her hair mixed with a faint perfume smell.
This scent was so fragrant that it was fatal.
But very soon, he turned off the hairdryer and unplugged it. “Done.”
“Thank you.” Yu Manxi carelessly fiddled with her hair. Her tiny face was red as she tilted her head to look at him. “Aren’t you going to blow dry yours?”
He had just taken a shower, and the tips of his hair were dripping with water. “No need.”
Yu Manxi didn’t say anything.
“Your cat is over there. I should start working now.” A certain someone was giving her an eviction notice.
Yu Manxi bit her lip. Indeed, this kind of cold-faced iceberg man doesn’t have the slightest bit of tenderness. It’s too difficult to take him down.
The kitten was already asleep. When Yu Manxi picked it up, it obediently snuggled into her embrace.
“Niannian is so obedient.”
Fu Sinian tilted his head to look at her. The name Zhaocai still sounds better.
After Yu Manxi left, Fu Sinian turned on his computer as usual and prepared to work. Unconsciously, he opened a few news articles about Yu Manxi.
Other than discussing current affairs, the comments below were basically all confessions to Yu Manxi.
He frowned slightly and then hacked the people’s computers…

Meanwhile, in Yuncheng, as the May Day holiday ended, the college entrance examination was getting closer and closer.
Qiao Aiyun could already walk on her own. It was just that when her feet touched the ground, they still hurt a little. But there wasn’t any major problem going to the hospital for a checkup.
During this period, Song Jingren’s trial had been going on for more than half a year. As his ex-wife and the person involved, Qiao Aiyun had appeared in court twice, accompanied by Yan Wangchuan.
When she saw Song Jingren again, she felt things had remained the same, but the people had already changed. He had already been in jail for more than half a year. In the past, he was still slightly fat. But now, he was already emaciated. When he saw his ex-wife again, he was awfully jealous
He had thought about a lot of things over the past six months, especially after seeing Yan Wangchuan’s care for Qiao Aiyun.
In the past, all of this had belonged to him. He had destroyed them himself.
After the verdict of the case was announced, Qiao Aiyun met him once.
In the past, he had always been a man of his word in the Song family. But ever since he got into trouble, all his relatives had been avoiding him like the plague, and no one had come to visit him at all. Qiao Aiyun had sent him some daily necessities. After all, he was Song Fengwan’s biological father, so she treated it as an obligation of their past marital relationship.
Song Fengwan didn’t know about the verdict of the case at all. She was completely focused on her studies. Fu Chen didn’t disturb her for the rest of the month. Her days were repetitive as she only shuttled between two places. She was nervous but calm.
When there was only a single digit left on the countdown for the college entrance examination, many students couldn’t sit still anymore…
A few days before the college entrance examination, the school would be requisitioned as an examination venue. Before setting up the examination venue, they naturally had to bring all the books home. In the next few days, the school would be completely sealed off.
Senior high school students started to throw books downstairs. The examination papers and books were like snowflakes fluttering in the air. Every building was celebrating wildly. No matter how the dean of academic affairs tried to stop them downstairs, it was useless. In the end, he could only call the teachers of each class over.
Naturally, there was another round of reprimands.
Song Fengwan’s phone vibrated. It was a message from Yan Wangchuan.
[I’m at your school gates now. Do you need me to go in and help you move your books?]
[No, it’s fine.]
While arranging her books, she caught sight of a piece of paper in one of the books…
The words were small and delicate in the thin gold-style font.
[After the college entrance exam, marry Third Brother.]
It was signed on February 27th, the 100th day before the college entrance examination.
Song Fengwan chuckled softly.. When did he hide this thing?
