I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

After all these things which were extremely easy, Shen Dong stretched lazily, feeling there was no other day as wonderful as this. Yet another project worth hundreds of millions had emerged. The only question was, from where should he draw the investment? Not long ago, he had swindled an investment from Mr. Yang, but where could he rush to next?

The outline of the plan was already prepared, and now all he needed was to eat. However, his mind kept dwelling on work, and even during the meal, he seemed distracted.

When he had slathered sauce all over his face, Kang Yue, who was a bit of a clean freak, couldn’t stand to watch any longer. It was bad enough that he ate messily, but now with sauce smeared on his face, she could take no more. She promptly took out a tissue and reached over to wipe off the sauce, catching his gaze as she did.

"There, what’s the use of eating so absentmindedly? Just focus on finishing your meal. You should be having fun right now, you know? You told me we came out to relax, so stop thinking about work. You make me want to go back to work too. How about we hurry up and finish this meal, then head back to work?"

After wiping his face, Kang Yue dropped the tissue on the table, delivering her words with a deliberately sarcastic tone, signaling her discontent and wanting to make that clear. Shen Dong, on the other hand, was clueless about reading her unhappy expressions, thinking she was truly considerate of his needs.

Since she knew he was anxious to return to work, and it wasn’t even his suggestion, he thought to himself that he really needed to find such an outstanding woman. He looked at her gratefully, feeling he hadn’t made a mistake in his choice.

When he looked up, he saw her glaring at him ferociously, as if to say that if he dared to mention going back today, his head would tumble off. Shen Dong instinctively shrank back, admitting his mistake. Such a woman was truly terrifying.

Hadn’t she just said they could go back? Her expression was now so daunting that he hardly dared to speak. Kang Yue’s smile seemed to ask, "Do you want to get back to it? "

His smile faltered, and despite the seemingly warm expression, he could not utter the words to go back. It was as if they were hidden behind a polite smile, too frightening for words.

"Not at all, how could I possibly want to go back? It’s only been a short while since we came out. Going back now would be a total waste. Let’s stay out a bit longer. I’ll finish eating quickly, then we can take a walk by the riverbank. It’s been a while since we’ve gone for a stroll there."

Shen Dong realized Kang Yue was not pleased and quickly said that to make amends. He definitely couldn’t let her catch onto his real intentions.

Kang Yue just laughed, knowing he would react this way. She was too familiar with him. If he weren’t, he would probably have agreed to go back immediately, but she didn’t want to put him in a difficult position.
