My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 84 - 76 Niece_2
Chapter 84: Chapter 76 Niece_2
Su Nian almost spat out the tea in her mouth; although everyone at the company thought of them as uncle and niece, hearing Shen Hanxiu say it out loud always felt comical.
The other party understood and smiled knowingly: “Oh~ no wonder. You’re on a trip with President Shen, huh?”
“Mhm.”
“You must still be in college, right? Learning from President Shen at such a young age, you’re bound to be talented in the future.”
Shen Hanxiu just smiled and said nothing, while Su Nian bowed her head to sip her tea.
It didn’t matter if she was a niece or a granddaughter, as long as he didn’t say she was his ex-wife, all was good.
...
The contract wasn’t settled until after three in the afternoon. Su Nian, who’d been seated for a while, grew impatient, but finally relaxed as people began to leave.
Outside, the air felt much clearer.
Once in the car and noticing they weren’t headed toward the hotel, Su Nian asked, “Where are we going now?”
This time, Shen Hanxiu pretended not to hear, simply continuing to drive.
Only when the car stopped at the stylist’s did Su Nian understand—he must have thought her outfit was a disgrace, so he brought her here for a transformation.
“Try this outfit.”
“I don’t want to.”
Shen Hanxiu turned to the clerk without hesitation: “Get a smaller size, and pack it up.”
Su Nian refused to try it on, standing outside by herself, and yet he picked out many clothes for her, mostly dresses and the girly type.
Only then did Su Nian realize his remarks that morning weren’t about being embarrassed by her attire but that she was always in formal workwear…
That’s when she figured that being sulky all day had been somewhat unjustified.
When they exited the stylist’s, it was already dark; walking back to the hotel along the beach, Su Nian felt the urge to stop and play, but their relationship wasn’t as it used to be.
Returning to the hotel, they both quietly engaged in their own activities.
That night, he asked the hotel for an extra blanket and slept on the sofa.
Suddenly, Su Nian felt bad for being cold to him all day; perhaps she was being unfairly cynical.
Although he could be unreasonable at times, he generally had a good temper.
Su Nian thought she had learned to control her own temper over the past four years, but she would unconsciously drop her façade and show her true self when facing him.
Watching him asleep on the sofa, Su Nian felt an inexplicable sense of sadness and regret.
What exactly was this bizarre relationship, where ex-husband and ex-wife were still ambiguously connected?
She sighed softly, turned over in bed, and slept with her back facing him.
The next morning, when she opened her eyes, the man who had been on the sofa was gone, and the blanket was neatly folded.
As Su Nian sat up and turned her head to look around, an unidentified flying object landed on her head—it was a silk dress, the one he bought yesterday.
The person she was looking for was already neatly dressed.
Today, he wasn’t wearing dark, cool tones, but rather a small V-neck shirt showing his attractive Adam’s apple and collarbone, paired with a white casual suit jacket and matching slim pants.

Whether formal or casual, any outfit looked good on this man, thanks to his tall frame and natural aura.
Su Nian was dazzled by his white ensemble for a few seconds, to which the generous man tossed her a few words: “Put on the clothes.”
Embarrassed, Su Nian averted her gaze and looked at the dress in her hands—it was a light-colored, bohemian-style long dress, perfect for the beach.
But she just tossed it onto the bedside table: “That’s not my dress.”
“Then you can choose to go out undressed; we’re leaving in five minutes.”
Su Nian pouted, stood up, opened the wardrobe, and immediately cursed inside.
Dammit! All her clothes were gone! The only things hanging there were the dresses he bought yesterday!
Shen Hanxiu had already guessed her thoughts from the look in her eyes, and calmly reminded her, “Four minutes and thirty seconds left.”
Su Nian glared at him and hurriedly grabbed the dress next to the bed and rushed into the bathroom to change.
She barely had time to wash her face and brush her teeth before that stinky man knocked on the door: “Time’s up.”
This was oppression! Exploitation!
And what was worse, she had no choice but to endure it!
Opening the door, he stood there towering over her, assessing her without any hint of shame…
Su Nian quickly covered her chest; the dress had a large round neck with ruffled shoulders, and even she could see a bit of cleavage looking down… not to mention his height.
Third Young Master Shen, after having had his fill of the view, maintained a nonchalant facade as if he’d seen nothing and turned to head out: “Let’s go.”
Su Nian put on her shoes, and then a khaki wide-brimmed beach hat was placed on her head.
Touching the hat and getting to her feet: “Where are we going?” Her attire didn’t seem fit for any serious business.
Shen Hanxiu didn’t answer; hands in his pockets, he walked out.
Su Nian closed the door and quickly followed.
They didn’t go to the underground garage; after descending the elevator to the first floor, they went straight to the beach out front.
With many unique eateries nearby, Shen Hanxiu led her to one and looked at the varied food, asking, “What do you want to eat?”
Su Nian felt a lot of pressure standing next to him. Shen Hanxiu, with his sunglasses and indifferent expression, had many people around them murmuring, wondering if he was a celebrity. Su Nian walked with her head down next to him.
Afraid of being photographed together and subjected to tabloid fodder.
So she tugged at Shen Hanxiu’s arm: “I’m not hungry… Let’s just go handle business.”
“The business was dealt with yesterday.”
Su Nian stopped in her tracks, squinted against the sunlight, and said to him, “If it’s done, let’s go back!”
He took her hand and led her to a tea house, stating, “There are five more days.”
Su Nian looked back to see girls still pointing their phones and cameras at them, so she ducked her head, grateful she hadn’t tied her hair and was wearing a hat.
She trotted to keep up with Shen Hanxiu, “Are we off work for the next few days? Then let’s hurry back.” It felt like ages since she last saw Su Zhen and Su Bao.
Settling into a seat, Shen Hanxiu only then responded: “The boss is on vacation; you’re in charge of his daily needs, isn’t that work? Just because I haven’t made you mop the floors or scrub the toilet, you think it doesn’t seem like work?”
Damn it, just because he’s her boss, does he have to take her for granted?
