105: Chapter 105 Encounter

Gu Shiyu smiled faintly, "Did you enjoy it a little?"

Song Yuan thought, 'More than a little, today's mermaid performance was truly a surprise.'

What he cared about was her thoughtfulness, and she was genuinely trying to coax him, truly serious about pursuing him as she said she would.

Which man wouldn't be moved by such carefully planned little surprises from his wife?

Song Yuan also had his vanity.

He leaned into her ear and whispered in a voice only they could hear, "My wife is the most beautiful person here today, all the men are envying me..."

Receiving a satisfying response, Gu Shiyu was also in an excellent mood, and the two walked hand in hand.

Gu Shiyu's makeup hadn't been removed, and many people frequently turned their heads, recognizing her as the mermaid who had just performed. Some even came over for a photo.

Song Yuan politely declined, blocking them. He didn't want his wife appearing on strangers' phones, even if the other person was a woman.

Gu Shiyu also didn't like taking photos. She was usually a very low-key person. When financial channels wanted to interview her, she refused to show her face, which is why the title 'female demon' was widely circulated in the circle, yet very few people recognized her.

This place was no longer suitable for further strolling, so Song Yuan led her towards the exit.

Finally, they reached a less crowded area, and no one else came to disturb them. Song Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, then heard someone call him from behind.

"Is that Song Yuan?"

Song Yuan turned his head, and walking towards them were Ji City and his wife and daughter.

"President Ji, what a coincidence, to meet you here!"

Ji City sighed, "I was also 'kidnapped' by this girl. She insisted on supervising my wife and I on Valentine's Day. At our age, why are we celebrating Valentine's Day like young people? So many people, it's giving me a headache."

Song Yuan introduced him, "President Ji, Madam Ji, this is my wife, Gu Shiyu."

When Ji City heard the name 'Gu Shiyu,' a hint of surprise flashed across his expression, but he quickly returned to normal. Being in the same circle, he knew Gu Shiyu and quite admired this young person, but they had no business dealings.

However, the lighting where she was standing earlier was too dim, so he hadn't recognized her.

Gu Shiyu extended her hand gracefully, "President Ji, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Ji City symbolically shook her hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

The two had exchanged greetings, very officially.

However, the young girl who had been silent beside Ji City spoke up excitedly, "Sister Gus, I'm your fan!"

Gu Shiyu was surprised. She hadn't done anything, so how did she have a fan?

The young girl generously introduced herself, "My name is Ji Qingxue, and I'm twenty-two this year. Can I add you on WeChat? You don't know how much my girlfriends admire you. Your methods of dealing with business rivals after taking over as General Manager Gu were simply awesome!"

Gu Shiyu smiled. It turned out she really was her little fan. She pulled out her phone from her bag and found the QR code.

With a 'ding,' the friend request was added.

Ji City looked at his daughter, then at Gu Shiyu, feeling a bit envious, "You should learn from General Manager Gu. Take over the company sooner and stand on your own. It's time for me to rest at my age!"

Ji Qingxue had a playful expression, "Dad, at your age, it's precisely the time to strive! You can keep striving for another twenty years, no problem!"

Ji City was exasperated and shook his head helplessly.

Did he really have to work until he was eighty?

He only had one son, who died at birth, and his daughter wasn't ambitious either. Heaven was truly unfair to him.

Song Yuan observed Ji City, seeing that he was a bit dejected, and smoothly changed the topic, "President Ji, there should be a result soon regarding my company's matter. The code was sold to Li Mingqi by an internal traitor for money. I have already found the evidence and submitted it to the public security department.

Now, the game project is proceeding as planned and will not be delayed."

A look of surprise appeared in Ji City's eyes. He had thought Song Yuan wasn't someone to be easily manipulated, but he hadn't expected him to resolve things so quickly.

He had resolved the internal issue in just a few days.

"Have the issues with the Apple and Android APP markets been resolved?"

Song Yuan nodded, "They've been resolved. Fortunately, you reminded me early; one step later, and their application emails would have been approved, making it troublesome to deal with."

Ji City was a bit curious how Song Yuan had resolved this issue so easily. If it were him, it would also take some effort.

However, as an investor, he only needed to know the result. Such details were inconvenient to ask about; it was considered taboo in their circle.

Song Yuan did not disappoint him.

Ji City thought to himself, 'Perhaps I stumbled upon a dark horse.'

"Then I wish our game great success upon its launch!"

Song Yuan, "Once the police release the results, I will inform you of the outcome."

Ji City, "I await your good news."

After leaving the aquarium, Song Yuan held Gu Shiyu's hand and returned to the car.

Gu Shiyu had been his exclusive driver on the way there, but on the way back, Song Yuan drove.

Once they arrived home, it was just the two of them.

After Song Yuan showered, he held a small jewelry box in his hand, looking conflicted.

He had prepared a Valentine's Day gift long ago: a pair of pearl earrings.

Song Yuan liked to give Gu Shiyu earrings; her earlobes were small and delicate, and earrings looked especially good on her.

But when he learned of Gu Shiyu's identity, he felt that these earrings were a bit unpresentable; their price might not even be a fraction of her usual jewelry.

He wondered if she would disdain them as cheap and refuse to wear them?

As he was contemplating, Gu Shiyu walked into the study, drying her hair, "Not sleeping yet?"

Song Yuan quickly hid the item, but his action caught Gu Shiyu's attention.

"What are you hiding in your hand?"

Alright, he'd been discovered...

Song Yuan took them out, "A Valentine's Day gift for you. I don't know if you'll find it cheap."

Gu Shiyu was torn between laughter and tears, "What are you talking about? Who would dislike a gift? The value of a gift lies in the sentiment, and especially since it's from you, I will cherish it."

"Really?"

"Of course."

Gu Shiyu took the box from his hand and opened it. A pair of lustrous white pearls. Not a luxurious brand, but very versatile.

"Nice, white pearls go perfectly with my black Hepburn dress."

She lowered her head and kissed Song Yuan's face, "Thank you, husband. I'll wear them to work tomorrow."

She smoothly sat on Song Yuan's lap, her movements quite practiced.

Song Yuan chuckled and hooked her slender waist, pulling her closer. Their bodies pressed even tighter.

"Won't that Hepburn dress of yours be a bit too revealing?"

Gu Shiyu assured him, "Not at all. My dress is off-the-shoulder; it has shoulders! Mmm, husband, you..."

Song Yuan kissed her more forcefully, "That sounds so good, keep going!"

Gu Shiyu had no chance to speak, only incoherent sounds.

Song Yuan peeled her like a lychee, pulling away the outer layer of the bath towel, leaving only a smooth, slick feel, and her unique faint fragrance.

That faint fragrance made him want to bite her; it was more intoxicating than the aromatherapy his unreliable brother-in-law had given him.

He had guessed that this woman came to him with impure intentions; she was completely naked under the bath towel.

Song Yuan kissed her, his large hands setting fire to her body everywhere.
