My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 45 – Lazy Panda

Xu Nuan turned to Han Zihao upon hearing his words and stared at him with her dumbstruck expressions. Even Qin Ju never remembered that she doesn't eat mushrooms and always orders them whenever he wants to eat.

' But wait, why does she keep comparing Han Zihao with Qin Ju? Qin Ju was her trash boyfriend who cheated on her and Han Zihao is just her…good friend.'

In her past life, she almost died because of mushrooms when she was young. So she has a trauma of eating mushrooms, that's why whenever she eats mushrooms, she starts to have rashes all over her body.

It's more like psychological trauma which causes such allergic reactions.

Han Zihao glanced at her and saw her agape expressions.

" What?"

" How come you remember that I don't eat mushrooms?" She asked with her widened eyes.

He smirked seeing her dumbstruck funny expressions. This girl always amuses him. At one moment, she becomes seductive, sometimes adorable, and sometimes unexpectedly funny.

" Do you like me? Mr. Han, don't do this to me. I might really fall for you if you continue this." She said while blinking her eyes seriously, pursing her lips in a thin line.

"-_-"

His heart skipped a beat for a moment. But the glint in her eyes made him knit his brows.

' She doesn't say anything seriously, did she?'

He sighed seeing how casual she looks while saying those words. She says whatever she wants to say in the end.

He rubbed her head like a child and said, " Don't think too much. I just remembered because I knew someone who also didn't like to eat mushrooms."

"-_-"

She froze when his hand touched her head. By now she was just teasing him and was treating him like a friend. She never had a problem interacting with the other sex since she had to interact with many male artists or back dancers for performances in her last life.

However, she feels strange whenever he touches her or does something sweet for her.

She swallowed and realized how fast her heart was beating.

" Oh. She must be your girlfriend that you remember her likes and dislikes, right." She joked while trying to change the mood. However, she felt strange when she said those words. She suddenly started to look forward to his response and wanted to know if he has a girlfriend.

For some reason, she can't help but be curious about him.

He blinked and didn't say anything to respond to her question.

Her attention diverted when the food arrived. Soon, the client also arrived and apologized for being late.

Feng Sheng who was standing on the side was getting worried because Han Zihao hates those people who are not punctual and always late for meetings.

He was worried that he might cancel the meeting but surprisingly he seems to be in a good mood. He glanced at Xu Nuan who was smiling sophisticatedly.

During the meeting, Han Zihao kept glancing at her wondering if she was bored or was feeling out of place, however, she seems to be enjoying herself.

She focused on eating the dishes in front of her and her mouth was never resting. She was chomping on something every time he looked at her.

A soft chuckle left his lips seeing her eating with gusto. Her cheeks were puffed up as she took a bite of steak from his plate and was savoring its taste with her eyes closed. The juice of the meat covered her lips, making them wet and tempting. Her tinted lips which were moist and were shaped in a pout due to her eating became the center of his focus.

Suddenly he remembered something and looked away from her. However, when he raised his head, he saw his client looking at him with a grin. He glanced at Xu Nuan and gave him a suggestive smile.

Han Zihao pursed his lips and his expressions again became indifferent. However, he can't help but glance at her in between.

…..

After the meeting ended and the client left, Han Zihao stood up, ready to leave the room.

She looked at him and asked, " Aren't we going to talk? Didn't you say that we are going to talk here?"

He glanced at her and shook his head, " Not here. Come to my place later. We will talk there. "

"-_-"

She blinked and asked, " Why? Can't we just talk here?" She was confused because he said earlier that they are going to talk about why she visited him at the office. Now he is saying to meet him at his place.

He didn't say anything and left the room. Left with no choice, she followed him out of the private room.

…

In the hotel corridor a man was standing in the corner and was watching as Han Zihao and Xu Nuan left the hotel.

Xu Nuan was walking behind him, running sometimes trying to catch up his pace. But due to her heels, it was impossible for her to walk as fast as him. She cursed in her breath seeing him walking so fastly.

She is used to wearing heels since she had to dance and perform in heels and they were like an inseparable part of her life. However, for some reason, she feels pain in her legs when she wears them now. Maybe Xu Nuan's muscles were not used to wearing heels and she always gets foot aches and blisters. She was so used to wearing heels, that she feels uncomfortable if she doesn't wear them. So despite the pain, she wears them.

Han Zihao, who was walking forward, saw her trying to catch up with him from the side glance. His steps unknowingly slowed down as he waited for her to catch up.

When she reached him, she panted slightly and whined, " Mr. Han, why do you walk so fast? Do you need to catch a plane? Why are you in so much hurry?"

His lips curled up as he said, " It's not that I am walking fast but I have long legs. That you don't have!"

"-_-"

She frowned hearing his words. His words hit her sensitive spot. In her past life, she was taller than average girls and had perfect body proportions.

However, in this life, Xu Nuan not only has an average height, which is considerably short for her. Similarly, her weight is not on the skinny type. Though she was not fat, but just average.

Average in every aspect. How can that be possible? Jia…Xu Nuan, an average?

She glared at him and said, " I am not short. I am… considered, tall for many girls."

" You really can't accept the fact, do you?" He teased as he chuckled.

She gritted her teeth and punched him in the stomach.

"-_-"

However, she regretted her actions the very next moment. She stared at him trying to observe his expressions.

Did I go overboard?

However, his expressions didn't become as she had expected. She was thinking that he would get angry.

But for her surprise, he laughed as he was amused by her reaction. He raised his hand and rubbed her hair and said, " Even your punch is so weak. You're just like a panda who tries to be strong but can't become strong because of his laziness." He laughed as he pinched her soft chubby cheeks.

"-_-"

Xu Nuan froze on the spot as she stared at him in a daze. He…how can he…'

Her mind malfunctioned when he pulled her cheeks.

Han Zihao released her cheeks seeing her frozen reaction. She blinked in trance and was trying to load the things that just happened.

He cleared his throat and looked around trying to dissipate the awkwardness between them.

Her shocked reaction made him realize what he was doing. He felt that he acts very unfamiliar whenever he is around her.

When she woke up from her trance, she frowned and complained, " You called me panda? Do I look fat like a panda? And lazy? How can you call me lazy? Do you even know the struggle of walking in heels? I was slow not because of my short legs but because of my heels. Just try wearing heels for one day and you will realize our struggle. It's easy to say…"

He stared at her and shook his head when she started blabbering again. He knows that she won't stop anytime soon, so he started walking again, while she followed behind him while trying to explain to him the struggle of wearing high heels.

The man who was leaning against the pillar on the corner of the corridor, raised his brows in interest seeing the duo. He saw their interactions and watched them leaving the hotel.

"Heh ~ So, Mr. Han knows how to smile. Hmm…this girl seems quite interesting." He pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

" I am sure I will get a huge reward if I give this news to the Boss." He smiled devilishly as he called the person, whose name was saved as Boss on his phone.
