61: Chapter 61 Let’s Exercise Together

Shiyu paused, her cheeks quickly flushing.

His words sounded ordinary, but on second thought, they seemed like a wolf's words?

"You... want to move where?"

Song Yuan was afraid of angering her in the street, so he didn't say anything else that would make her overthink.

"Other than your hands and feet, any part of your body can move. The choice is yours."

Shiyu turned her face away, but her earlobes were already crimson. How could she not know what he was thinking?

Although they hadn't known each other for long, their first encounter was in bed. Putting aside other things, they had a certaintacit agreement in that aspect.

The two of them didn't continue the previous topic and got directly into the car.

Song Yuan didn't notice that Wang Jincai's car was parked not far from him.

Wang Jincai was still in the car, trying to figure out which person on the list was James himself. He looked up and saw Song Yuan appear in his sight again.

He had seen Song Yuan frequently at the hospital these past few days, and he couldn't help but wonder if Song Yuan was the person he was looking for.

Soon, Wang Jincai overturned his thoughts. Song Yuan was just a small technical director, miles away from the person he was looking for.

He carefully searched through the printed list, and Song Yuan's name wasn't there at all. How could it be Song Yuan!

Li Mingqi's call came in, and Wang Jincai answered,

"Mr. Li, I haven't confirmed who James is yet, but I've narrowed down the scope a lot. I'm already checking the information of everyone on the list one by one. As long as their academic background or profession is related to computers, I'll pay special attention."

Li Mingqi instructed,

"The news of James's IP appearing in Beijing has already spread in the circle. It won't be long before everyone knows. You'd best find the result within three days. He can talk to me about any conditions he wants. Get this trump card into my hands first!"

"Mr. Li, don't worry. I've been sleeping in the hospital parking lot these past few days. I refuse to believe I can't find him!"

...

On the other side, Song Yuan, driving, suddenly sneezed twice. Was someone cursing him?

He looked at Shiyu sitting in the passenger seat and remembered the meal he ordered yesterday.

"Shiyu, should we still order from Jinzunfu tonight?"

"Okay, do you like the taste of Jinzunfu?"

"How should I put it? The taste is definitely not bad, but if I had to pay for it, I definitely wouldn't order it. The price is a bit unreasonable. Yesterday you said it was from winning a prize, so if we don't eat it, it's a waste. We definitely have to order it."

Shiyu chuckled,

"You focus on driving, I'll order the meal."

When the car arrived back at the complex, the delivery happened to arrive.

The two of them didn't have much time eating together, so they weren't too familiar with each other's eating habits.

Song Yuan helped her peel shrimp. During the meal, he suddenly remembered Gu Shiyuan's matter.

"Shiyu, do you know any young girls who are new to the workplace?"

Shiyu looked up at him,

"What do you mean?"

"It's just that I have a junior fellow apprentice, whom you met when we got married. That kid has gone crazy recently, constantly pestering me to introduce him to someone. I don't know anyone suitable, so if you do, please help introduce them."

Song Yuan wanted to get rid of that big trouble, who knows when he would come to pester him again.

"Junior fellow apprentice?"

Shiyu reacted for a moment and realized that the junior fellow apprentice Song Yuan was talking about was her good-for-nothing younger brother.

What trouble had that kid caused her again?

"Wait a moment, I need to make a work call."

Shiyu took her phone into the bedroom, closed the door, and immediately called Gu Shiyuan,

"What kind of trouble are you stirring up again?"

Gu Shiyuan had a lot of opinions these past few days, and even money couldn't shut him up.

"Sis, when can I have a heart-to-heart with brother-in-law?"

Shiyu directly snapped at him,

"Shut your mouth. If anyone's going to say it, it'll be me first. Before we lay our cards on the table, if you dare to leak a single word, you're finished!

Do what you're supposed to do, and don't cause trouble for Song Yuan."

Gu Shiyuan sighed. He had been suppressed by his bloodline since he was young, and he was already used to Shiyu scolding him.

"Then I won't say anything. A few days ago, Song Yuan brought home a bag of stuff. If you throw it away, I'll agree to what you want."

"What stuff?"

"Never mind what it is, just throw it away."

Shiyu ignored him and hung up the phone directly.

Returning to the dining room, the shrimp meat in her bowl had already piled up into a small mountain.

Shiyu now deeply regretted not clarifying things with Song Yuan before getting their marriage certificate. She tentatively asked,

"Song Yuan, let me ask you a question..."

Song Yuan washed his hands and came back to sit in front of her,

"What question?"

Shiyu slowly began,

"What do you think of men who marry rich wives?"

Song Yuan looked at Shiyu and was stunned for a moment,

"Eating soft rice? That's something only incompetent men do."

"Then would you marry a wife who is more assertive than you?"

Song Yuan shook his head. He could afford to support a wife, so why would he eat soft rice?

Shiyu's heart sank. It seemed he really minded. The thought of confessing that she had just had was completely suppressed the moment she heard his answer.

If she told him, especially after having hidden it from him, she felt that Song Yuan's personality would make him angry.

Shiyu decided to keep it a secret for now and find a suitable time later.

Song Yuan watched her absentmindedly eating the shrimp in her bowl, wondering if she was worried he couldn't support a family.

Song Yuan took out a card from his wallet,

"Shiyu, there are several hundred thousand here for household expenses. You can keep it. My company isn't profitable yet, but believe me, it's only temporary."

Shiyu was stunned for a moment,

"I don't want your money. You need money for your startup, and I have a salary."

Song Yuan realized that his wife had very low material desires. She never asked him for anything, and she wasn't even interested in money.

He remembered that Lin Xueyao used to go shopping every week, buying clothes, bags, cosmetics...

He didn't understand her well enough. How could there be a girl who didn't like shopping?

She must be afraid he didn't have enough money, that's why she didn't accept it.

Song Yuan insisted on pushing the card towards her,

"Shiyu, you don't have to worry about me. I can occasionally take on side jobs to earn some money."

The day before yesterday, Song Yuan, having nothing to do at the hospital, took on a job for a security company and earned ten million yuan.

This was his first time taking on a side job, and also his first time earning money under the name of James. If it weren't for the money needed for his startup, he wouldn't easily use his hacker identity.

Not revealing their identity was a rule in their line of work.

It was an easy task for him to solve, yet it helped that company solve a big problem.

This ten million was enough for him to keep his company going until the day of fundraising.

Shiyu looked at the card, feeling only its weight.

His attitude was firm, so she accepted it, but Shiyu was already thinking about how to find a way to make it up to him.

Song Yuan didn't know about her complicated thoughts. Today was his running day.

"Shiyu, shall we exercise together?"

Shiyu looked up at him, her eyes somewhat unclear.

Exercise?

Together?

"It's... it's not even dark yet!"
