Married to the Protagonist - Chapter 167: It’s Still Not Enough (1)
Ch.167 It’s Still Not Enough (1)
Before the new year, the company held a year-end party.
Family members were welcomed.
Early the next morning.
Chen Jinyao got up early to try on some dresses.
She got the dress because she was temporarily lured in by Chen Jinlin’s verbal temptations, so she quietly went with her to make a custom dress, designed according to her body size, a dress specially for pregnant women. The color of it was this year’s most in trend color, a slightly darker tone. The style was very unique, and she gave off an elegant look.
She looked at herself from the full-length mirror in the cloakroom for a long time.
Right until Yan Cheng walked over with a yawn, as he leaned against the door frame, and watched her dress up with furrowed brows for a while.
When she finally saw him through the full-length mirror.
Chen Jinyao turned around, her gaze expecting, and asked him, “Do I look good?”
“Yeah.” He just woke up, his voice was low, and his sleepy gaze gradually turned from hazy to clear. After answering her question, his eyebrows didn’t relax. He saw her turning around and looking at herself in the mirror, he then sighed deeply, “You look good.”Then he fell silent again, pursing his lips and hesitating for a few minutes.
Yan Cheng walked towards Chen Jinyao, leaned down slightly, raised his right arm, and wrapped his arms around her collarbone, but because of the pregnancy, her collarbone was not visible anymore. The fabric of her evening gown felt cold when he touched it. His gaze drooped, as he looked at her bulging abdomen, “The party, are you going to wear this?”
His tone sounded surprised, as if he was saying “are you mad”, and there was a hint of disagreement.
But Chen Jinyao didn’t notice this, she nodded, “Yes, it cost me tens of thousands.” I have to wear this, all to look beautiful at the party, “However, there is some bad news, I should wear nipple pads for this dress, but……”
She lowered her gaze, and pointed at her chest that was constantly growing bigger, and sighed.
She didn’t say anything, as it was obvious enough, Yan Cheng should be able to understand.
Yan Cheng’s expression looked slightly unnatural: “……”
But he didn’t awkwardly move his gaze away. Instead, he moved his arm that was wrapped around her downwards, his palm holding her tummy, as he enjoyed the moment, and whispered in her ear: “Is that so.”
“……” Chen Jinyao was expressionless, slapped his hand away, and freed herself from him, she then faced him, raised her head to look at him, and then said, “You pervert.”
“By the way, I prepared your suit too. You can try it on.” As she said this, she stood on tiptoe and ruffled his messy hair, as if he was a dog, and smiled with satisfaction. “Wait here, I’ll get it for you.”
The suit was of the same color as her dress, as if they were matching couple fits.
When Chen Jinyao looked down and focused on putting on his tie, Yan Cheng held her waist and curled his lips silently. The disapproval in his eyes had now disappeared.
“The evening gown goes with the necklace, and the cufflinks go with the suit.” Chen Jinyao smiled with her eyes, “I also custom-made a necklace, just to match your cufflinks.”
“Didn’t you ask me to proclaim my standing? Now this is an interesting way to do so.”
Yan Cheng: “……”
Zhiyuan Technology was located in the city’s Business District, where there were many business towers. They only occupied two floors of one of the buildings, but they were the top two floors.
35th and 36th floor.All departments were on the thirty-fifth floor, plus a pantry and a rest area, and the thirty-sixth floor was where the company’s backbone was located, with meeting rooms. There was also an office that took up the largest space, and that office belonged to the company’s major shareholder, Yan Cheng.
The office had access to a 270 degree view. Standing there, it could be said as the closest place to the sky, overlooking the most prosperous area of
the capital.
Every time Chen Jinyao went, she would take the elevator directly up to the 36th floor. Before, when there were fewer employees, she would walk around the 35th floor. Now there was no point in that, so she just simply occupied Yancheng’s luxurious office. Besides ordering coffee for everyone, she hardly showed up.
“Be a good boss, and your employees will work loyally for you!” she said.
Yan Cheng raised his eyebrows and sneered, “With just a few cups of coffee?”
“……” Chen Jinyao shrugged, closed the book, put it aside, squinted her eyes as if it was none of her business. She licked her lips after a while, and said: “You’re wrong. The coffee was paid from my own pocket. It’s my reward to them as the boss’s wife.”
“All right, you’re such a good wife.”
In just two weeks, the most significant change in the office was for sure the bookshelves. Half of the books on the bookshelves had been occupied by parenting related books.
