(Sweet romance novel, brain cells—fly away~)
It was Friday again, five-thirty in the afternoon—a perfectly ordinary moment, yet the most anticipated time for every office worker. Suisui was no exception. She was saving today's files, getting ready to clock off.
After graduating from university, she had been very lucky. On her first attempt at the national civil service exam, she was admitted to a government unit in D City, securing the legendary "iron rice bowl."
Although the salary wasn't high, the benefits were excellent, and Suisui was very content.
Sister Wang from the same office was already humming a little tune as she walked over to Suisui.
"Suisui, all packed up?" Sister Wang asked with a smile.
Suisui nodded gently. "All done, Sister Wang."
Suisui had a rather gentle and quiet personality, so compared to the very enthusiastic Sister Wang, she seemed a little slow to warm up.
Standing close, Sister Wang looked at Suisui's profile again and couldn't help but sigh inwardly—so beautiful!
Her long black hair was casually tied behind her, carrying a faint scent of camellia. Her delicate side profile was so beautiful it seemed almost unreal.
Even though they had worked in the same office for a month or two, every time Sister Wang got close to her, she still felt that Suisui's beauty was unreal, carrying a kind of "keep your distance" aura.
Especially after hearing that Suisui came from the beautiful Yun Province and belonged to an ethnic minority known for singing and dancing, Sister Wang liked her even more.
As she admired her, she also silently praised the leadership for their wise arrangement of putting them in the same office—such a blessing for someone like her who loved beautiful faces.
Thinking about her eldest nephew who had returned to China today, a bold idea suddenly popped into her mind.
Such a wonderful girl—how great would it be to bring her into the family!
Only when she became part of her own family would it be truly secure. Then her relationship with Suisui would become even closer.
The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. Do it as soon as you think of it! ψ(｀?′)ψ
So after Suisui finished tidying her desk, Sister Wang prepared to "promote" her eldest nephew.
"Suisui, Sister Wang wants to ask you something. Don't mind, okay?"
Suisui looked at her and continued smiling. "It's fine, Sister Wang. Go ahead."
After spending a month or two together, their relationship was actually quite good. Although Sister Wang was a senior employee, she never put on airs or bullied newcomers.
On the contrary, she had always been very warm toward Suisui, like a caring elder, often looking out for her. So Suisui didn't mind whatever she wanted to ask.
Hearing this, Sister Wang became even happier and quietly held her hand. "Suisui, do you have a boyfriend?"
Caught off guard by the sudden question, Suisui felt a little embarrassed but still shook her head honestly.
Seeing her shake her head, Wang Hui almost wanted to clap with joy—her single-dog nephew was saved!
"Then… would Suisui mind going on a blind date?" Sister Wang asked cautiously.
"My nephew graduated from Harvard in the U.S. with dual PhDs in finance. Now he works over there doing something in finance!"
"Not only is his income impressive, he's handsome and good-looking. Most importantly, he seems to be single!"
"So… how about…"
Seeing Sister Wang hesitate, Suisui understood what she meant. But as far as she was concerned, she had no plans to get married.
She had a grandmother who loved her, a stable job, and a small home that belonged to her alone. Marriage was not a necessity in her life.
So she directly declined. "Sorry, Sister Wang, I don't have thoughts about that for now."
Wang Hui: "Uh…"The plan had failed before it even began! ′?`
She hadn't even finished introducing him yet!!!
Her nephew had so many other good qualities—Suisui, couldn't you reconsider???
At the same time, a Boeing 787 flew across the sky above D City and steadily landed at the hillside manor.
A two-thousand-square-meter seaside villa with an unparalleled location overlooking the entire coastal scenery.
Even though the owner rarely came back, the servants performed their duties diligently, keeping the manor in perfect order.
When Wen Gu stepped off the plane, the butler and his domestic private assistant were already waiting below.
The old butler stood respectfully to the side. Seeing Wen Gu descend, he said, "Young Master, welcome home!"
Wen Gu was dressed in a beige casual outfit, relaxed and comfortable, as if he were not the same meticulous and stern financial tycoon from Wall Street.
A new maid, who had never seen the master of the manor, stood among the crowd and cautiously peeked at him.
Although he wore casual clothes, he still carried an air of noble elegance.
With large sunglasses covering his face, his full appearance couldn't be seen, but the high bridge of his nose beneath them revealed extraordinary looks.
Wen Gu wore a gentle smile as he walked to the old butler. "Uncle Chen, I've been away these years. Thank you for your hard work."
"Not at all, it's what I should do," Uncle Chen replied with a bow, not acting proud just because he had served the old master.
The private assistant hurried forward. "Young Master, you must be tired. The master was very happy to hear you returned and said he wanted to come see you."
As he spoke, he carefully observed Wen Gu's expression, especially on that last sentence, which he delivered with extreme caution.
Hearing this, Wen Gu stopped. The smile on his face didn't fade as he glanced at him.
"Oh? Is that so?"
"You even know the old man plans to come over?"
The assistant hurriedly shook his head. "No…"
Wen Gu didn't listen to his explanation and continued, "Looks like you're more filial than me, his own son."
"Staying in this small place, so far from Hong Kong—it must be hard for you."
"How about this: go back to Hong Kong and stay by the old man's side. Nurture your relationship properly."
With that, he walked away without looking back.
The assistant tried to chase after him to explain, but Butler Chen waved his hand, and the bodyguards quickly covered the man's mouth and dragged him away.
Butler Chen watched the struggling assistant and shook his head. Those who couldn't see the reality of the situation truly weren't worth pitying.
How could a servant possibly influence the young master's decisions!
Wen Gu had no intention of returning to Hong Kong after coming back to China. If not for his mother being here, he wouldn't have returned at all.
He liked plunder and destruction; the wild environment of the U.S. suited him better. The many restrictions at home forced him to disguise himself.
Since he rarely came back, his mother felt the manor was too big and lonely, so she mostly lived in the city.
Therefore, Wen Gu changed his clothes and prepared to go to the city to see his mother.
Arriving at the garage, his long legs straddled the motorcycle. With a roar, the massive mechanical beast shot out like lightning.
Men seemed born to love speed and excitement.
After work, Suisui didn't go straight home. She casually pinned up her long hair with a clip, rode her little electric scooter along the seaside road, slowly enjoying the evening scenery.
The setting sun dyed the clouds red, and the sea reflected the same color. She seemed to understand the poetic line: "Half the river emerald, half the river crimson."
The salty sea breeze blew gently—very comfortable. She liked it a lot.
Returning leisurely to the main road, she saw congestion ahead, probably due to an accident. Just as Suisui stopped her scooter, she heard the roar of a motorcycle.
The huge sound made passersby turn their heads.
The motorcycle slowed and stopped beside her scooter. With a snap, something shattered.
Suisui turned to look and saw a pearl hair clip crushed beneath the wheel, broken into pieces—a rather tragic sight.
She instinctively touched her hair. The sea breeze had already loosened it, and the faint camellia fragrance drifted into Wen Gu's nose.
So fragrant!
Both of them glanced at the shattered clip, pearls scattered everywhere.
Suisui wanted to stop and pick them up, but the road ahead had already cleared. The crowd began moving again, and car horns urged from behind.
She looked up and met the eyes of the motorcycle's owner. With no time to say anything, Suisui rode away directly.
Wen Gu was still immersed in that moment of eye contact. He seemed to hear his own heart pounding.
The girl was so fragrant! So beautiful!
And—full of desire!!!!
He actually felt a physiological reaction!!!
This was unbelievable to him!
Since childhood, his father's house had been filled with countless women. The mixed smell of cosmetics had made him develop extreme psychological and physical disgust.
Especially after going abroad—foreigners had strong body odor, often masked with heavy perfume. The combination made him nauseous.
So even as the eldest young master of Hong Kong's top Wen family and a famous Wall Street tycoon, he was still a virgin!
If not for his natural reactions in the shower, he would have doubted himself!
His few bad friends often mocked him:
"Tighten the belt the most, guard chastity the strictest!!"
Guard chastity my ass—he simply had no interest!
Yet that girl, with just one glance, gave him a strange feeling—novel and thrilling!
Before he could grasp that sensation, the little girl had already left. How could he not be anxious?
Without any hesitation, he accelerated and chased after her!
