Tang Wei was stunned. What was this?

He actually mentioned something that she had said a month ago when she was having her smooth-brain moment. Was Lu Beichen not as busy as he seemed? Otherwise, why did he remember such a thing? Shouldn’t a big shot like him only have financial data roaming around in his mind?

Tang Wei did not dare to say her thoughts out loud and could only ponder in her heart.

The atmosphere between the two of them was a little awkward now.

This awkwardness mainly came from Lu Beichen’s strange behavior.

She lowered her eyes and touched her phone, pretending to scroll through it with interest.

She hoped that he would leave quickly. Otherwise, she would have to leave the room first to free from this suffocating air.

Tang Wei waited for a while. Soon, she lowered her eyes and saw the pair of gray slippers walking out.

This time, she did not look up immediately and patiently continued to play with her phone.

She only glanced once the man had left the bedroom.

Confirming he was gone, she put down her phone and twisted her neck.

The image of the man holding his forehead in embarrassment surfaced in her mind. She smiled and took out her phone to post on her WeChat Moments.

‘On how the heir of a wealthy family became a down-to-earth husband-‘

Tang Wei’s fingers paused when she saw the last period. Thinking twice, she quickly pressed the clear button.

In the end, it was changed to ‘Rare animals actually have the same behavior as normal animals. It’s really rare to find out such a thing after living for a long time~’

Tang Wei looked at her post with satisfaction and pressed the send button.

Wasn’t Lu Beichen similar to a rare animal? His actions just now made her feel like she was watching one at a zoo.

It was unexpected that he could still be so… Humanly.

Tang Wei looked at the post that had been liked by people on her WeChat Moments, and her eyes inevitably froze for a moment.

She hadn’t posted for a long time and had actually forgotten to block the Tang family.

Looking at Tang Yandong’s concerned comments below, she felt a wave of nausea in her heart. Her brother really didn’t have to do this.

Tang Wei took a deep breath. Tang Yandong was still using his mother’s belongings as a bargaining chip. She couldn’t fall out with him now, or else he might refuse to give her those things forever.

She put down her phone and laid back on the bed.

“I’ll just sleep a bit more and then write a script tonight.”

She mumbled before closing her eyes.

Late at night, Lu Beichen came out of the study room and saw the woman sleeping, her feet exposed.

He walked over and grabbed the blanket. He suddenly stopped.

What was he doing?

Coming over in the middle of the night to stare at her feet and then covering them with a blanket like some sort of ghost?

Lu Beichen looked down on himself. He quickly retracted his hand, which was holding the quilt.

Despite his actions, soon after, the navy blue blanket was now covering the woman’s feet tightly.

He turned around and left the room.

The next day, Tang Wei woke up earlier than usual. She had revised her script until one in the morning last night. When she went to bed, Lu Beichen did not come back to the room. She guessed that he must have gone to sleep in the study, so she closed her computer and slept until seven.

At this moment, she was full of energy as she put on makeup.

There was the sound of light footsteps outside. Lu Beichen walked in wearing a white and gray tracksuit.

Tang Wei had to admire his perseverance in taking care of his body.

He poured a cup with warm water and drank it. He looked sideways at her and said, “I’ll be at the company around 8:30.”

After a night, he had returned to being the Lu Beichen who looked down on everyone.

She quickly responded, “Got it.”

“The servants brought breakfast over earlier. I’ve put it in the microwave. If it’s cold, you can heat it up a little.”

She was busy filling her eyebrows as she whispered to him.

He hummed and looked at the black microwave in the living room. He asked, “Did you buy this?”

She finished drawing the end of her last eyebrow and replied, “Yes, it’s more convenient this way.”

Lu Beichen did not heat up the food. Instead, he simply took it out and placed it on the coffee table.

“Is it still hot?” Tang Wei asked.

“Yes.” He replied calmly.

Seeing that the woman was still calmly putting on her makeup, he said, “There’s no such thing as a boss waiting for his employees to prepare. You must hurry.”

Tang Wei was looking through her lipsticks as she casually said, “But you have to be my husband first, and then my boss.”

Lu Beichen was stunned. He stared at the woman’s actions inquisitively.

Tang Wei saw Estee Lauder’s maple red lipstick and picked it up with a smile. This color was most suitable for autumn and winter. The texture was a high-grade satin velvet texture, which would give people’s lips a sense of warmth even in autumn and winter. It was really a retro color.

She walked out of the room with her hair tied in a low ponytail and lipstick on.

Lu Beichen stared at her for a long time. His eyes went down to the woman’s lips.

Tang Wei gently brushed her bangs and asked,” Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Why are you wearing so much makeup? We’re going to work, not participating in a talent show.” He emphasized to her, looking very displeased.

“?” Tang Wei’s hand that was holding her sandwich paused. She frowned and looked at him. What was his problem? Lu Beichen was a big straight man, but he unfortunately suffered from a small brain!

Tang Wei smiled and narrowed her eyes. “Uh, President Lu, I just changed to a different shade of lipstick. Moreover, I didn’t put on any extra makeup. Suntons is such a big company. There must be someone who has much more obvious makeup than I do.”

Lu Beichen frowned. “I’ll get them to also change their lipstick shade when we get to the office today.”

Tang Wei was anxious. “Why are you being like this? You’re too unreasonable. You don’t act like the boss of a big company at all.”

“Tang Wei, are you teaching me how to do things?” Lu Beichen said unhappily, “Go change your lipstick.”

His wife was fair to begin with, and with lipstick on, she looked even more charming.

Should she not change her lipstick and just let those grimy men stare at her?

How was that possible? He would gouge out their eyes.

As Lu Beichen thought of this, he denied his possessiveness toward her. What he said just now was probably a way to fit into his role as a husband. After all, no man would want other men to look at his wife.

Hearing his overbearing tone, Tang Wei directly refused, “No!” Did he really think he was some sort of crown prince from ancient times?

“Then that’s up to you.”

He did not force her anymore. He had decided that it would be fine as long as he did not let her leave his sight. With this, he could also make sure she wouldn’t mess around with other men.

Tang Wei didn’t expect him to be so easy to talk to. She glanced at him weirdly.

“Let’s go to work.” Lu Beichen got up and stood there unhappily.

She replied blankly, “But I haven’t finished eating… Whatever, alright then.”

She wiped her mouth and swiftly followed behind him.

The two of them walked over to the Maybach. Tang Wei was suspicious when she saw Xiao Chen and said, “Xiao Chen, aren’t you on vacation today?”

“Vacation? No- Ah, I remember now, I’m supposed to be on leave.”

When Xiao Chen met the man’s gaze, he immediately reacted.

Fortunately, he had followed Lu Beichen for ten years now. Otherwise, he would not have understood what he meant when he pursed his lips just now.

Tang Wei pointed at him. “Then what are you doing here?”

“I-I’ve gotten so used to coming here every work morning. I ended up forgetting that I’m on vacation.” His mind suddenly lit up with an idea as he immediately replied.

“You may go back first,” Lu Beichen said.

“Yes, President.”

Lu Beichen saw Tang Wei still standing there and his gaze paused. “What, are you waiting for me to drive?”

“…”Tang Wei silently walked toward the driver seat.

Inside the car.

She searched for a long time before she could measure out her surroundings. She tried the accelerator, foot brake, and clutch, making sure they were all within her range before starting the car.

Lu Beichen watched as the car started moving steadily. He leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.
