486 Speak of the Devil (2/2)

They spoke softly, but Yan Rusheng and Xuxu still overheard their conversation.

Yan Rusheng curled his lips, feeling pleased. He suddenly bent and inched towards Xuxu's ear. With his deep baritone voice, he said, ”Good morning my childhood sweetheart wife.”

A red flush rose from Xuxu's neck to her cheeks. She shyly bent her head, stretched her hands, and pushed Yan Rusheng gently. ”Hurry up and leave. I have work to do.”

”Alright. Let's go to Grandfather's place for dinner tonight.” Yan Rusheng gave her blushing cheek a peck, after which he straightened his back. He strode across the room, back to his own office.

Xuxu felt her whole face was burning. Only after Yan Rusheng had walked past her, she slowly turned her head to glance at him. As he walked away, he exuded an aloof and haughty charm.

But just seconds ago, he was teasing her.

”Good morning, my childhood sweetheart wife!”

When she recalled how he had addressed her so tenderly, Xuxu's eyes sparkled with happiness and contentment.

”Luckily, I gave up everything in the world except for you.”

”I'm glad I have waited till this day.”

…

Work swamped both their entire day; they barely had time to talk to each other. During lunch, however, they had time together and briefly chatted.

It was a busy period for everyone. Even in the late evening, everyone crowded the workplace.

Gradually, the colleagues left the office.

Xuxu casually glanced at the time and it shocked her. ”It's already past seven.”

Oh dear, it's so late. Grandfather will definitely lecture her.

She hastily saved all her work and switched off her computer.

At that moment, her phone rang. The screen showed that her grandfather was calling.

Speak of the devil.
