“It’s alright. It’s just that, um, there were quite a lot of people. They stopped at every floor, and it did take some time.” Fang Xiaonuan was getting more and more guilty. She did not dare to look Ji Lingchen in the eye.
Ji Lingchen was a little confused. He did not understand why his wife did not tell him that she came up in the private elevator. He asked, “Xiaonuan, since there were a lot of people, why didn’t you take my private elevator?”
“Huh? Can I take that? I thought that was for you only. I thought that I couldn’t take it without your permission,” Fang Xiaonuan replied in surprise.
Ji Lingchen looked intently into his wife’s eyes and said, “In this world, only you can enjoy everything I have unconditionally without my permission.”
Fang Xiaonuan was very touched and wanted to confess, “Hubby, actually I…”
Ji Lingchen interrupted her and said, “Because you are my wife.”
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips and did not speak. She felt uncomfortable because of her lie.
Ji Lingchen handed over the chopsticks and said, “So when you come here in the future, remember to use my exclusive elevator. Don’t squeeze into the elevator with others anymore.”
Fang Xiaonuan quickly nodded.
Ji Lingchen did not expose his wife’s secret directly. He wanted to help her save face. Even if he knew that she was lying, he still had to believe that his wife had her own reasons for doing that. Thinking of this, Ji Lingchen suddenly felt that he had changed. Could love change a person’s character? However, he did not panic because of the change. Instead, he felt very happy. While eating, he kept smiling.
On the other hand, Fang Xiaonuan was feeling the opposite. She had been thinking about lying, and nothing tasted good.
Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and they heard a familiar voice. “CEO.”
Fang Xiaonuan turned to look at the door. Ji Lingchen put down his chopsticks and said, “Come in!”
The assistant pushed the door open and entered. He was carrying a plastic bag filled with snacks.
“CEO, I heard that your kitten was coming. I realized that you didn’t have any food for the cat, so I brought the snacks and cat food that I bought for my cat. You can feed it to your cat first.”
With that, the assistant placed the bag of snacks on the floor of the office. When he raised his head again, he saw Fang Xiaonuan and quickly greeted her, “Hello, Madam.”
Fang Xiaonuan frowned and nodded at the assistant.
Then, the assistant did not leave immediately. Instead, he lowered his head and looked around the office. He asked curiously, “Eh? CEO, where’s your kitten? Where is it?”
Ji Lingchen’s gaze fell on the face of his little wife in front of him. She was small and had soft hair. She looked adorable. He looked at his wife and smiled. “She’s right in front of me!”
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. She quickly looked up at her husband. Their gazes met. Fang Xiaonuan’s heart raced. After a while, she regained her senses and reached out to pat her husband’s arm, she pouted and said, “Don’t say that I’m a kitten!”
The assistant was dumbfounded. His face turned red. He really did not know that the kitten he meant was his wife. This was too awkward. He looked down at the cat food on the floor and his mind went blank.
Ji Lingchen said, “Take the cat food and snacks back. My cat is special, so she has to eat with me. She doesn’t eat normal cat food.”
Fang Xiaonuan patted her husband again and said angrily, “Hubby, haven’t you said enough!”
The assistant did not dare to watch the CEO and his wife flirt anymore, so he quickly ran away with the bag of snacks.
They were left alone in the office. Fang Xiaonuan put down her chopsticks angrily. She did not even eat. “Hubby, you told everyone that I’m your cat. You promised me that you wouldn’t tell anyone! I’m not your pet, I’m your wife!”
Ji Lingchen chuckled. “But because of you, I fell in love with cats.”
His words made Fang Xiaonuan’s mood improve again. “Why don’t you get a cat as a pet?”
Ji Lingchen shook his head and said, “No, you’re enough for me.”
“What if I’m not around?” Fang Xiaonuan asked.
“Then I’ll hate cats from now on,” Ji Lingchen replied seriously. “So, don’t leave me, understand?”
He only liked cats while he liked her. If she left, then he would not like cats and he would not like her.
This was the first time Ji Lingchen had said something so possessive.
When Fang Xiaonuan heard this, her heart suddenly felt stifled. She asked, “Hubby, has anyone left you before?”
Ji Lingchen was stunned for a moment, but he did not answer. He did not want to lie to his wife, but he did not want to answer this question, so he could only choose to remain silent.
