Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This was the first time Gu Shen had felt the warmth of home since he was young. The ice in his eyes was melted by the spring breeze, and he became even gentler because of the spring breeze.

“Hubby, try it. I made this braised carp myself. It should be very delicious.” Yan Xi touched her nose and smiled.

Gu Shen looked at her. The apron on her body was hanging crookedly. Her nose was stained with some ketchup. Because it was not comfortable, she rubbed her hand against it from time to time, but she just couldn’t get the stain out of her nose.

Without a warning, he leaned forward, raised his hand, and rubbed the tip of her nose.

“It’s stained,” he said, trying to sound calm.

Before he could put down his hand, Yan Xi grabbed it tightly.

She placed one hand on the table and looked Gu Shen in the eye. “Before we eat, shouldn’t you give me, this gentle, beautiful, virtuous, and sensible wife of yours, an explanation?”

Gu Shen was confused by her words. After a moment, he asked in confusion, “Explanation?”

He did not think that he had offended this little princess in any way.

Yan Xi raised her slender fingers and criticized him for what he did today. “Why didn’t you reply to my message today? I understand that you’re busy, but are you so busy that you can’t even look at your phone? Isn’t that a little too much?”

Gu Shen understood. He said patiently, “When I saw that message, it was already in the afternoon and I was about to go home anyway, so I thought it’s not necessary.”

Behind him, Gu Er suddenly realized why Young Master seemed to be in such a good mood this afternoon. It turned out that he had received Madam’s message. However, this excuse would probably only make Madam angrier.

As expected, Yan Xi got serious. “Because you were about to go home, so you didn’t have to reply to my message?”

Gu Shen cleared his throat and said, “Well, I didn’t have important things to say to you.”

Oh well, he was not treating her as his wife at all, but as a company employee and partner!

Yan Xi patted her chest to calm herself down and quickly comforted herself. She sat opposite Gu Shen and handed him a pair of chopsticks.

“Gu Shen, even if there’s nothing important, you can still reply to me. It’s fine even if it’s just one word. I’ll still be very happy. When I sent you the message, I was worrying about you, but you treated my concern as something unimportant. Everyone will get angry if this happens to them.”

Yan Xi pouted, looking very aggrieved.

Gu Shen couldn’t help but wonder if he had indeed done something wrong. “Okay, I’ll reply to you in the future.” He thought for a while and added, “Every message.”

Hearing that, Yan Xi was satisfied and happily picked up a piece of fish for him. “Eat more. This kind of fish is very nutritious.”

At the side, Gu Er tried his best to control his expression. Madam was too good at this. She actually managed to get the CEO to reply to every one of her messages. If he wasn’t worried that his bonus for another month would be deducted, he would have praised Madam right away.

…

After dinner, the sky was not completely dark outside. Waves of cold wind blew in through the open window, making people feel very comfortable.

Yan Xi suddenly thought of something. She looked at Gu Shen and said, “Shall I push you out for a walk?”

The place they lived in was a villa area. There were many green areas around it. The scenery was beautiful and the equipment and facilities were complete. On the way, there were many adults and children playing happily.

Gu Shen agreed without hesitation. Gu Er came up and said, “Madam, let me push President. You must be tired from cooking today.”

Even though Yan Xi had been doing very well recently, Gu Er was still suspicious of her and was worried about letting the two of them go out alone.

Yan Xi also remembered the wicked things the Host did before. She was about to agree when Gu Shen said, “It’s alright, just leave it to her.”

He looked at Yan Xi meaningfully and hoped that she would not disappoint him.

Yan Xi looked at Gu Shen with shock in her eyes. “Why don’t we let Gu Er tag along? He can help if I’m tired.”

“No need.” Gu Shen’s tone was domineering. He looked at Yan Xi with a sharp gaze. “Let’s go.”

Yan Xi no longer hesitated and pushed the wheelchair out. Her heart felt like it was injected with honey and every step she took felt sweet.

Did Gu Shen mean that he trusted her completely just now?
