Chapter 338: Were You Secretly Laughing At Us?

Because he was annoyed at the collar of his nightshirt getting in the way, and how he would sometimes accidentally get shaving foam on it, he had simply taken off his shirt,

It was Xu Moyan’s first time seeing Wei Zilin shirtless. Even when they slept together last night, Wei Zilin had remained immaculately dressed so she could sleep soundly.

Now, Xu Moyan could finally see Wei Zilin’s body, the one she had fantasized about for so long. To her surprise, it was not too far from what she imagined.

He had a great body. Although she could only see everything above the waist, it was still a feast for her eyes.

His abs were well-defined chunks, almost like chocolate. Xu Moyan’s fingers twitched, and she almost reached out to touch.

For some reason, the waist of his pajama trousers hung a little loose, revealing half of his v-cut abs.

Xu Moyan felt that Wei Zilin must have done this on purpose. It was the same with how he had purposely left the door open while he was in the washroom, so that she would see everything.

Nevertheless, Xu Moyan also admitted that she was weak. Even though she knew that he was doing it on purpose, she chose to play along anyway. After all, she was reluctant to turn away from such a gorgeous image too.

After Wei Zilin was done cleaning up, he walked out wearing only his pajama trousers. Without a word of warning, he grabbed a pair of trousers from the wardrobe and was about to take off his pajamas right in front of her.

Xu Moyan was shocked, and she immediately ran out of the room in a huff, Wei Zilin’s hearty laughter echoing behind her. Unlike his soft chuckles, which resembled the clinking of pearls or jades, his hearty laughter from behind her now was bright and loud, like the strumming of strings that reached straight to one’s heart.

Xu Moyan ran to the living room, her face red. She knew he was teasing her, but as she stomped her foot, she realized that she did not know how to get back at him.

It felt as though she was always at a disadvantage when dealing with Wei Zilin. He would tease her every time, but she would have no way of responding.

Xu Moyan was about to sit down on the couch. Although she did not have the chance to ask earlier, she figured that the two of them did not have enough time to eat at home.

Just then, there was the sound of the door opening at the porch. Shocked, Xu Moyan stood up and walked over to it, only to see a middle-aged woman walking in from outside. She was over forty years old, but her features did not resemble Wei Zilin’s in any way.

Xu Moyan guessed that she could be Wei Zilin’s domestic worker.

“You’re—?” Aunty Liu asked in surprise. She had not heard that Wei Zilin had made a girlfriend.

Still, Aunty Liu at least knew that he had been flirting with someone a lot lately. Was this the girl Wei Zilin had been pursuing?

When Wei Zilin flirted with the girl, Aunty Liu had accidentally overheard a few lines, and that was enough to turn her face red as well. The young girl on the other end of it would never be able to resist him.

“I’m—” Xu Moyan was about to introduce herself when Wei Zilin came out of his room.

Walking over to Xu Moyan and putting his arm around her waist, he introduced her, “This is my girlfriend, Xu Moyan. I added her fingerprint to the lock, so she’ll be dropping by whenever from now on.”

After that, he introduced Aunty Liu to Xu Moyan.

Aunty Liu greeted Xu Moyan politely, and then Wei Zilin glanced at the fine, saying, “You don’t have to make breakfast today, I’ll be going out with Moyan first. For today, you only have to clean the place and do the laundry, so you don’t have to cook dinner as well. Oh yeah, just wash and cut all the ingredients, then leave them here at home.”

Aunty Liu noted all of his instructions and then watched as the two of them left the house.

When they finally departed, it was already seven in the morning. At this time, there were already plenty of cars on the road. Although it was not at the peak of the rush hour traffic yet, their going was by no.means unobstructed.

Nevertheless, Xu Moyan did not care about all that as she sat in the passenger seat. Her whole body felt like she was floating. Waking up with Wei Zilin, leaving the house with him… She never dreamed that the day would come when she could do all that.

Although it was not smooth sailing, the roads were not extremely congested either. They made it to Xu Moyan’s house in good time, arriving there at forty minutes past seven.

Xu Moyan saw that there was still time, so she bought soy milk and youtiao 1from the breakfast stall at the entrance to their housing area. She had pickled appetizers at home, too.

She also called Zheng Yuntong, telling the latter not to buy breakfast.

After that, she went inside with Wei Zilin. At home, Zheng Yuntong had already cleared the place up, but she still felt immense pressure at the prospect of sitting under the same roof as her boss. This felt completely different from work.

To make matters worse, she was supposed to eat breakfast with Wei Zilin too. Zheng Yuntong regretted it now, and how she wished she had left the house slightly earlier.

After they finished breakfast, Shen Zongyi came by to pick Zheng Yuntong up. He was so surprised to see Wei Zilin there as well that he even froze for a moment.

Zheng Yuntong rushed into Shen Zongyi’s car as though he was her savior, and Xu Moyan could not help but feel exasperated at Zheng Yuntong’s reaction.

Wei Zilin sent Xu Moyan to work too, and on the way, they were caught in the inevitable jam.

Wei Zilin turned his head to tell Xu Moyan, “The way I see it, the dubbing will last until at least the end of the month. How about this? After work today, go get a few changes of clothes from your place and leave them at mine, so we won’t have to worry about things like what happened last night.”

That was why she knew that she should not start staying the night at Wei Zilin’s place. Once there was a precedent, it would only keep happening over and over again.

Although she knew Wei Zilin had an ulterior motive, Xu Moyan was still powerless to resist. In the end, she nodded, red-faced, and hurriedly lowered her head, too embarrassed to look at Wei Zilin.

Having achieved his motives, Wei Zilin somehow stopped teasing her, stopping the car on the road by her ground floor entrance to her office building.

Xu Moyan undid her safety belt and was about to bid him goodbye before getting out of the car, when suddenly Wei Zilin asked, “Do you want me to walk you upstairs?”

Xu Moyan blinked for a moment, and she heard Wei Zilin say with a laugh, “All of your colleagues were watching when I fetched you last night. You’ll probably get surrounded when you walk into the office today.”

The same thought occurred to Xu Moyan, and she shook her head with a laugh. “It’s fine, I’ll have to deal with that eventually anyway. Besides, it’s not like I have anything to hide. I want to date you openly, so it’s fine if they ask me a few questions.”

If Wei Zilin really did walk her up, both of them would probably be attacked even harder.

Creative Works was not the only company in this building. There were many other organizations here too, and at the beginning and end of every workday, they would bump into employees from other companies. Although they did not know each other, they were familiar with each other’s faces.

If Wei Zilin went up there so boldly, Creative Works would not be the only company to find out.

Wei Zilin laughed as he smoothened her hair. “Alright, then I’ll come pick you up tonight. Call me if there’s anything.”

Xu Moyan nodded, and after a moment’s thought, she leaned in and kissed him on the lips, evew=n staining his mouth with a bit of lipstick.

The lipstick Xu Moyan was wearing today was not too bright. It was faint and mild, tinting Wei Zilin’s lips with a light hue that was slightly glossy. It somehow made his features look somewhat devilishly seductive.

Xu Moyan stared at him, almost hypnotized, and then she hurriedly pulled out a tissue to wipe the tint off his lips. If she let him roam free and attract more hearts like that, it felt like she was the one who would lose out.

“I’ll go up now, be careful on the road.” Xu Moyan twisted the tissue in her hands and darted out of the car as nimbly as a rabbit just as Wei Zilin wanted to lean over for a kiss. Wei Zilin was left exasperated.

Yet, the girl who had just jumped out of the car made a face at him through the car window.

As though something had hit her in the head, she was even bold enough to blow Wei Zilin a kiss before turning around and running away.

Wei Zilin was flabbergasted, but he also smiled in delight as he watched her fly through the main gates amidst the crowd of employees.

Everything around her seemed to turn gray, and only Xu Moyan’s pretty and lively form had color, fluttering like a butterfly.

It was only when he could not see her anymore that Wei Zilin finally drove away, deciding that he would slowly make her pay for that at night.

When Xu Moyan remembered Wei Zilin’s earlier expression of exasperation and defeat, her mood brightened considerably, and she could not stop smiling as she entered the office.

Since she was already mentally prepared for this, Xu Moyan was somehow perfectly calm in the face of her colleagues’ bombardment.

“Momo, tell us the truth. When President Wei came here last time, was he waiting for you?” You Minmin asked.

Xu Moyan could not lie about that, so she just nodded. She intended to explain that they had not been dating at the time, though.

Before she could say anything, however, Tao Tingshan spoke, her voice dripping with jealousy. “So you were already dating him back then, Big Sis Xu? And you hid it from us too. All of us were doing our make-up so we could leave a good impression on President Wei, so were you secretly laughing at us?”

Xu Moyan looked at her coldly. In the past, Tao Tingshan would play these little tricks and occasionally say sour things, but Xu Moyan chose to be above that. If she confronted Tao Tingshan about it, the latter might end up crying the toilet, and say that a senior was bullying her, a new intern, making herself out as the victim.

It was not as though that had never happened before, but Xu Moyan was not the target back then. Another one of her colleagues had had enough and told Tao Tingshan off, then Tao Tingshan had run off with tears of indignation in her eyes. Eventually, their other colleagues had to console her, and the one who scolded her became the mean one who took things too far, randomly inviting the ire of everyone else.

After that incident, Xu Moyan saw Tao Tingshan for what she was, so Xu Moyan ignored her more often than not.

This time, however, Tao Tingshan had gone too far. It was one thing for her to feel jealous, but she should not try to instigate conflict among colleagues.
