Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

During the seven-day holiday of the Spring Festival, Zhou Mei found herself constantly preoccupied with thoughts of her noodle shop. Despite being the boss, she allowed herself only a single additional day off.

The Wen couple and their son, Wen Yu, were in the process of packing up their belongings in the hotel, getting ready to return to Hai City the next day. Zhou Mei had managed to secure a suitable shop for rent before the start of the new year. Taking into account the shortage of staff and the need to save costs, Zhou Mei made the decision to have Wen Xing accompany them back to I lai City and lend a hand at the noodle shop.

When Zhou Mei arrived in the capital this time, she felt a sense of relief upon witnessing Wen Nian’s satisfactory working and living conditions.

Additionally, the presence of Shen Jun, her classmate and mentor, further solidified her decision.

When Shen Jun found out about Zhou Mei’s plans, he became extremely enthusiastic and offered to help them prepare the place for their arrival. Today, he bid them farewell, expressing his eagerness to assist. “Uncle, Auntie, what time is your flight tomorrow? I’ll be happy to drive you to the airport.”

Wen Yu observed Shen Jun’s attentive demeanor and cast a suspicious glance in his direction.

Wen Yu sensed that something was off about this individual, but he refrained from voicing his concerns aloud. Shen Jun frequently visited to tutor Wen Nian, often ingratiating himself with Wen Yu’s parents, causing his son to feel sidelined in recent times.

Zhou Mei gazed at Shen Jun and responded with a smile, “It’s not too late. I purchased a plane ticket for 10 o’clock. Please don’t trouble yourself. We find it convenient to drive ourselves. However, if there’s anything Wen Nian needs assistance with after we return, please lend a hand. Once you’re back in Hai City, Auntie will prepare delicious meals for you every day.”

Shen Jun noticed Qin Gang’s suspicious gaze, which made him quickly regain his composure. He became more cautious and refrained from behaving unusually. With a smile, he replied, “Sure, Auntie, don’t worry. 1’11 take care of everything.”

Even though the family had only been together for seven days, Wen Nian had grown accustomed to the warm and lively atmosphere. Therefore, when she returned to the hotel the following day, she couldn’t help but feel that the suite was unusually empty.

Observing the loneliness in Wen Nian’s eyes, Shen Jun extended a comforting gesture by gently patting the top of her head. He cleared his throat softly before speaking, “Why don’t I move in with you after the New Year?”

Wen Nian let out a chuckle and turned to face Shen Jun, amused by his serious expression. Teasingly, she remarked, “How did you manage to say such shameless things with such a serious face?”

Shen Jun playfully raised Wen Nian’s chin with his hand, flashing a slight smile. “Not only do I want to say it, but I also want to act on it. Since you’ve made such a request, 1’11 shamelessly express it.”

Since their relationship began, Shen Jun had been mindful of Wen Nian’s outsider status and the presence of the Wen family in the hotel. Despite being together for almost a month, the most intimate gestures they shared were hugs and hand-holding.

Shen Jun gently pulled Wen Nian onto his lap, their faces now at eye level. This sitting position made Wen Nian feel a hint of embarrassment, causing her cheeks to flush. She blushed and instinctively attempted to get up from his lap.

Shen Jun’s large hand firmly encircled Wen Nian’s waist, exerting a gentle yet firm grip. Despite her efforts, Wen Nian found herself unable to break free from his hold.

Wen Nian gazed into Shen Jun’s eyes, her own eyes filled with a flirtatious glare. She retorted playfully, “Who said 1 made a request? Don’t go accusing me falsely.”

As soon as Wen Nian finished speaking, Shen Jun swiftly covered his mouth, stifling any further words from escaping.

Shen Jun, noticing Wen Nian’s slightly widened eyes, raised his hand and gently covered her eyes. Drawing closer, he pressed his lips against hers and spoke in a soft, commanding tone, “Close your eyes and let’s kiss.”

Wen Nian smiled and closed her eyes.

In contrast to the insincere and transactional kisses she had observed between her seniors, this kiss with Shen Jun represented Wen Nian’s true understanding of a first kiss. It was the first time she experienced the sheer bliss of kissing someone she genuinely liked.

After a while, the two of them parted from the kiss. Wen Nian sensed something pressing against her and suddenly had a realization. She looked up in surprise, her eyes filled with curiosity and intrigue.

Upon noticing the desire in Shen Jun’s gaze as he looked at her, Wen Nian’s cheeks flushed with heat, and the blush spread to the tips of her ears. She had the intention to get up, but Shen Jun held her tightly in his embrace. His voice, magnetic and slightly husky, resonated in her ears. “Don’t move. Allow me to hold you,” he whispered.

Wen Nian snickered and buried her face in Shen Jun’s arms, not daring to move.

Wen Nian straddled Shen Jun’s body, her head resting beside his ear, where she could hear the rhythmic beat of his heart. A sense of tranquility washed over her, and she was on the verge of drifting off to sleep when she suddenly heard Shen Jun’s voice break the silence.

“You’ll be filming during the daytime for the next few days, won’t you?” Shen Jun’s voice reverted to its customary coldness.

Wen Nian opened her eyes in a daze and replied gently, “Yes.”

Observing Wen Nian’s compliance, Shen Jun managed to suppress his hormonal urges and spoke with sincerity. “1 have a gathering the night after tomorrow. It’s with my childhood friends, like brothers to me. I want to bring you along.”

Realizing the significance of meeting Shen Jun’s family and friends, Wen Nian quickly regained her composure and sat up straight. “Are all your friends’ families quite affluent?” she asked.

Shen Jun was taken aback, realizing that he hadn’t shared much about his family background despite their long time together. “Let me tell you about my family first. My family is simple. It consists of only four members: my grandfather, my parents, and myself,” he explained..
