Contract Wife: CEO, Please Be Gentle

Ling Xiaosu stared at him blankly. Was this person going to say or not? He was going to say something that she was nervous about.

The heaven defying official rolled his Adam's apple up and down. Finally, after a long silence, he said, "It's getting late, you can go back now."

Finally, he opened his mouth and said something that didn't matter to him. He was still unable to say what was in his heart, and his heart was beating faster and faster.

Due to his nervousness, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the forehead of the heaven defying official. However, in order to conceal his nervousness from Ling Xiaosu, the heaven defying official embarrassedly coughed twice.

After hesitating for a long time, Ling Xiaosu said these words. Ling Xiaosu pursed her lips, picked up the backpack on the table and put it on her back. She then walked to the entrance, changed her shoes and said to the heaven defying official, "I'll be leaving first."

"Yes." After making a sound, she turned her head away from Ling Xiaosu with embarrassment.

Ling Xiaosu could not suppress the smile on his face as he looked at the one with the temper of a child, but he did not laugh out loud.

By the time he got home, it was already 11 P.M., and the shop was already closing for the day. Ling An was also sitting at home watching TV after showering.

Ling Xiaosu went back home to put on her slippers and put down her backpack. Just as she was about to call Ling Anan by name, she saw Ling Anan, who was holding a cell phone with a creased brow and a worried expression.

Strange, what's wrong?

Ling Xiaosu stepped forward. To be honest, her mother had always been an optimist. She rarely frowned like this. What was going on? Did something happen?

"An'an." Ever since he called his mother by her name, Ling Xiaosu found that he could not change his words.

Ling An turned around and looked at Ling Xiaosu who had suddenly called out to him. With a dry smile, he said, "Xiaoxiao has returned so early."

Ling Xiaosu nodded and asked, "Why were you distracted?" Even when she entered the room, she did not hear it.

Ling An forced a smile and replied evasively, "I was thinking about the matter in the shop, so I wasn't paying attention when I thought about it."

"I don't believe it." Based on Ling Xiaosu's evasive gaze, Ling Xiaosu was able to tell that Ling An was lying.

If Ling An were to lie, his eyes would avert hers, and he would not dare to look her in the eye.

Having been exposed, Ling An remained silent. He smiled dryly, not daring to look at Ling Xiaosu. Even so, the smile on his face stiffened.

A moment later, Ling Xiaosu let out a sigh. Ever since Ling An An had attended her engagement banquet, he had been out of his mind. She thought that the shop was too busy, so she did not ask too much.

"Ling An An." Ling Xiaosu shouted. Ling Xiao Su raised his head to look at Ling An. Ling Xiao Su then said, "I hope you can tell me if there's anything that you need to tell me. You're not hiding it from me, are you?"

Ling An nodded in panic and replied, "Nothing happened, you …"

"Forget it." Ling Xiaosu interrupted him and stood up, "It's fine if you don't tell me. Just don't hide it from me. I'll go up and rest first."

With that, Ling Xiaosu walked upstairs. Ling An watched her daughter's back as he held the phone tightly in his hand.

After Ling Xiaosu closed the bedroom door, Ling An opened the password on her phone. Looking at the first number on the phone, Ling An became uneasy.

How could she … How could he tell Xiaoxiao? It was best to keep this sort of matter a secret from Xiaoxiao …

Ling An was uneasy as he put down his cell phone. From the moment the call was made to him, Ling An had been immersed in fear and trepidation, all the way until the call was made to him again today.

Regarding the betrothal banquet between Ling Xiaosu and the heaven defying official, the media only reported it briefly. They did not announce it to the public. This was the order of the heaven defying official.

After a series of medication, the face of the heaven defying official had almost fully recovered. Ling Xiaosu was more or less satisfied, and decided to explain his thoughts to the heaven defying official.

"Senior Ouyang's movie is about to be filmed. I'm going to go to the production crew now. It's best if you invite the servant back." Ling Xiaosu said as she placed a cup of coffee in front of him. It seemed that the promise she had made earlier as an exchange would not be fulfilled.

"How long?" The heaven defying official frowned as he thought to himself, 'It's this Ouyang Ke again!'

"I'm not sure." After all, a good movie takes a long time to make, and it's possible that a few months might be a year, who can say for sure.

"Must we go?" The heaven defying official's eyes became teary as he looked at Ling Xiaosu.

Ling Xiaosu's heart skipped a beat and she barely managed to keep a serious expression on her face as she tried to suppress the wavering in her heart.

This fellow would always look at him in such a manner.

Ling Xiaosu coughed lightly and replied righteously, "I must go. I've already promised Senior Ouyang that if I don't go now, I won't be sincere."

The heaven defying official did not speak. He lowered his head and remained silent.

Ling Xiaosu did not speak either, as if she was waiting for the heaven defying official to make his decision.

In truth, this sort of thing did not require the consent of a heaven defying official. It was just that Ling Xiaosu wanted to tell the heaven defying official, and it was that simple.

After a long while, the heaven defying official raised his head to look at Ling Xiaosu once more. After mulling over it for a long time, he spat out a sentence that shocked Ling Xiaosu.

"Ling Xiaosu, I … I meant …" "I mean, if, we, try to be together …" "How about it?"

Ling Xiaosu opened her eyes slowly and looked at him with disbelief. She muttered, "What did you say?"

She didn't hear wrongly, right? This heaven defying official had actually said … Ling Xiaosu's jaw dropped.

"I said we tried to be together." Suddenly, Tian Chanzi said it out in one breath, and his ears started to turn red.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. The hand that was flipping through the papers stopped. In the quiet study room, not a single sound could be heard. Ling Xiaosu could only hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

We try to be together, we try to be together, we try to be together...

Ling Xiaosu kept her mouth open and did not say anything. The heaven defying official was getting impatient. She coughed and pretended to be expressionless. "Hey, Ling Xiaosu. Do you agree or not?"

As soon as he said those words, the heaven defying official's face turned red, but he managed to maintain his cool expression.

Ling Xiaosu burst out laughing as he watched the heaven defying official blush. He felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Don't just look at how cold and aloof Yi Tian Chen was, he was actually very shy in his heart. For example, when he said that he would try to stay together with her this time.

Ling Xiaosu looked at him with a smile on his face, and the smile on his face grew even wider.

"Sure." Ling Xiaosu replied with a slight smile, the smile in her eyes almost spilling out.

Upon hearing the answer, the heaven defying official's eyes widened. He could not help but smile, "En."
