When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 614: Making It Up to You for a Lifetime (Part 4)

As for Yu Shasha’s apology just now, whether it was genuinely for what she did in the past or just because she holds the title of the president’s wife, Tang Yanqi didn’t care.

Karma, good or evil, is always repaid; she firmly believes.

Having taken the report upstairs, Sheng Jianan was still asleep. His posture wasn’t comfortable, but he was deeply asleep, with obvious dark circles under his eyes. What Qiao Zi said was true; he really hadn’t rested well in a long time.

Tang Yanqi casually picked up a book and sat by the bed to read. She stayed there until the sun set, as it’s winter and the sky darkens earlier. It wasn’t until dusk when the man beside her finally woke up.

Sheng Jianan opened his eyes, the deep black pupils still filled with exhaustion, meeting Tang Yanqi’s gaze.

Tang Yanqi thought he was going to get up, but then she saw him close his eyes again and mutter: "Damn, dreaming again."

???

Waking up and seeing her, thinking he’s dreaming?

Tang Yanqi curled her lips and reached out, pinching him hard.

The man who just closed his eyes again jumped up from the bed with a jerk.

Tang Yanqi pinched the inside of his thigh, which is quite sensitive, and she used full force.

Sheng Jianan grimaced in pain, instantly awake, his temper flaring: "Tang! Yan! Qi!"

Tang Yanqi met him unflinchingly, even with a hint of cheekiness in her eyes: "Yelling at me? You said you’d comfort me before sleeping, but after waking up, you don’t recall it? Yelling at me instead?"

Sheng Jianan: "!!!"

This... Why does this sound so awkward?

It feels like he’s done something he shouldn’t have.

Indeed, the original phrasing should be like this: "You’ll comfort me, but after finishing, you put on your pants and don’t acknowledge it?"

Sheng Jianan scratched his head, glancing at the person laughing heartily beside him.

Fine!

He admitted it!

Tang Yanqi handed the report to Sheng Jianan, who took it but didn’t look at it, instead checking the time: "Let’s eat first."

"Eating at home?"

"Sure, let’s eat at home."

The economic turmoil brought by Shengshi Group’s stock decline still hadn’t subsided, but the constant grind hadn’t stopped either. Sheng Jianan finally took a break.

He packed up some work that still needed handling, and walked out holding Tang Yanqi’s hand.

It was already past office hours, but Qiao Zi was still busy in her office. Seeing Sheng Jianan and Tang Yanqi come out, Qiao Zi hurriedly came out too.

Tang Yanqi looked at her; Qiao Zi’s complexion also wasn’t good. Sheng Jianan had been working non-stop, so as his capable assistant, Qiao Zi naturally wasn’t much better off.

Perhaps many think that having Qiao Zi by Sheng Jianan’s side is her luck, given that being the president’s special assistant at Shengshi Group, both status and money are top-notch.

As a woman, Qiao Zi is already quite formidable.

But Tang Yanqi understands Sheng Jianan’s picky nature and ambition. Beside such a man, the pressure on Qiao Zi wouldn’t be small. Moreover, as a woman, having been by Sheng Jianan’s side for so many years without any scandals breaking out, and managing to remain true to herself without oppressing subordinates just because of her seniority and unique relationship with Sheng Jianan, casting any shadow on Sheng Jianan or Shengshi.

Tang Yanqi gave Qiao a smile: "Assistant Qiao, go home early too. These days have been tough for you, I’ll give you a raise."

Qiao Zi: "...Thank you, Young Madam."
