He would sometimes pinch his fingertips, sometimes trace the lines on his palm, sometimes interlock his fingers, and sometimes compare the size of the two hands in his own. These were things that should have been extremely boring, but he played them with great relish.

Fu Xuan stared blankly as he played, feeling the warm, large hands caressing his own, his face flushing slightly.

She was so engrossed in watching that Yu Chen's words took a long time to reach her ears and actually enter her mind.

Fu Xuan's eyes cleared, and he said, "It will have an impact, of course it will! So you need to get better quickly, so as not to let me down for putting aside my work to come and be with you!"

"Actually... I'm really fine now, and I can go back to work right away without any problem..."

"The person who was lying in a hospital bed yesterday has no right to say this! I'm talking about a complete, thorough recovery, without any aftereffects whatsoever!"

Fu Xuan, with a stern face, stared into his eyes and spoke each word clearly.

Yu Chen smiled helplessly and reached out to touch her smooth face. "I know... then rest a little longer."

Fu Xuan gently turned his head away, and seeing that he couldn't dodge it, he simply let him touch him.

Anyway, we've already hugged and kissed, it's just touching the face, nothing more...

Chapter 49 I am not yours!

He stayed at home for three days, and Fu Xuan came to glance at him every day. However, apart from the first day, he only came to see him once on the next two days before going back to work.

After all, he's a diviner, and a very diligent one at that, so there's not much extra time to spend with him.

She was especially eager for the position of a general.

And so, incredibly, this carefree swordsman ignored all advice and various threats and inducements, and voluntarily went back to work on the fourth day of his vacation…

But, if it's called "going to work," what exactly is going on...?

Qiong Guanzhen was observing the diviner, who was deducing some extremely profound things. Yu Chen stood behind her, silently watching, holding a cup of tea in his hand, looking like an old man supervising a project.

Her brows were slightly furrowed as she kept making notes on the [Jade Sign].

After a while, Fu Xuan closed his eyes and let out a soft sigh. He took a few steps back, feeling somewhat weak, glanced at the large formation, turned around, and then met the gaze of an old man who was leisurely drinking tea.

Her lips twitched slightly, and she glared at him speechlessly before taking light, quick steps forward.

What are you drinking?

"I don't know, because I didn't look. I grabbed the tea leaves with my eyes closed, so it would be more exciting to drink it that way... I think I brewed it pretty well today~ Want to try some?"

Yu Chen blinked and handed over the half-finished cup of tea.

Fu Xuan paused slightly, looked around to make sure no one else was spying on this crucial place of the Grand Divination Bureau, then took it and sipped it.

"...There has been progress, but not much..."

To put it simply, you've ruined my tea again.

Fu Xuan looked up at him with her bright eyes and then took a small sip.

"If you don't like it, then don't drink it, give it back to me!"

Yu Chen frowned, looking displeased, and reached out to snatch the teacup back, but Fu Xuan held the cup and turned his back, preventing him from taking it.

"No, making tea for me is your job, why should you take it back?"

"Don't you dislike drinking it? Besides, this was originally made for myself, I'm just letting you try it!"

Yu Chen stared wide-eyed, still resentful of her words about him ruining her tea leaves.

"I was just saying you're a complete idiot..."

I didn't say I didn't like it, and...

"What's in the Imperial Archives is my decision, I don't care about you!"

Fu Xuan gave a soft hum, picked up the cup, and took small steps, leaving Yu Chen with a petite, pink back view as she walked away.

"Hmph~ So it was just arrogance after all. Little Fu Xuan, how laughable!"

The Sword Saint stood there with his hands on his hips, laughing a few times like a complete idiot.

"What's wrong with you? Aren't you coming with me? As a secretary, how dare you leave on your own? If you're not competent, I'll fire you!"

Yu Chen leaned closer, smiling at her, and said, "If you fire me, I'll be unemployed, and then I'll have to rely on Lord Fu Xuan to support me~"

"Who's going to take care of you!" Fu Xuan blushed, glared at him, and said, "You'll be begging on the streets then!"

"But all I want is to live off Lord Fu Xuan!"

"Shut up, I won't give you any!"

Her voice was already tinged with embarrassment and annoyance. Yu Chen stopped there, and with a look of pleasure, he pinched one of her small hands.

"That's not up to you. I'm going to live off a woman!"

...

Formal working hours always seem long... for office workers.

As for the Sword Saint, perhaps it was a bit boring at first, but now…

Being able to openly admire the adorable Diviner, and even pat her head, is simply the most therapeutic thing ever!

Yu Chen, using the excuse that a secretary should stay close to their superior, pulled up a stool and sat down next to Fu Xuan.

However, the two handles still separated them a little, which Fu Xuan could barely accept, and thus did not drive him away.

At this moment, the two of them looked like two elementary school students in class, sitting next to each other, except that one was doing his homework seriously and the other was seriously slacking off and eating snacks.

Yu Chen somehow found a large bag of nuts and other unusual-looking things, picked up a handful and put them on the table, eating them while watching Fu Xuan work.

He had great finger strength; with a gentle pinch, the hard shell of the fruit cracked open with a snap, and he picked up the fruit inside and popped it into his mouth as easily as eating a peanut.

The crunching sounds kept coming, and the faint aroma of nuts wafted over. Plus, this guy was eating right next to me, so the impact was not negligible, but rather extremely significant!

Fu Xuan tried her best to ignore him, but the crunching and chewing sounds were like a stripper seducing her, and in the end she couldn't help but glance at Yu Chen.

Then she silently swallowed. She hadn't intended to eat it, but now that there was a scoundrel eating so deliciously next to her, she couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

With noon approaching, my stomach started to rumble.

Listen to the sounds, smell the fragrance.

Fu Xuan's small hand holding the pen trembled slightly. She was so angry. She was working hard, while this guy was eating and drinking happily!

So, if that's the case, why come to work at all? They've clearly told you to stay home!

As if she could no longer hold back, she turned and glared at Yu Chen, but something she didn't know was suddenly stuffed into her mouth to stop her from speaking.

Fu Xuan chewed it subconsciously, finding it fragrant and refreshing, while Yu Chen took a sip of tea and looked at her with a smile.

"If you want to eat it, just tell me... I don't have much free time anyway~"

He was holding his own cup!

Fu Xuan glared at him again, swallowed the nut in his mouth, and snorted at him, "I'm thirsty!"

"Alright, Lord Fu Xuan, please have some tea~"

Yu Chen smiled and handed the cup over, but Fu Xuan snatched it and gulped it down. Then he shoved the cup back into Yu Chen's hand and continued working on something Yu Chen couldn't understand at all.

"Go and make me some more tea. You're the only one in the entire Taibu Bureau who's this idle at work. Even Qingque isn't as carefree as you!"

"This Sword Saint has a special identity; I am the personal secretary of the Grand Diviner. Isn't it normal for me to be a little more relaxed and have more privileges?"

And you yourself told me not to overwork myself and to get some rest.

Yu Chen held the cup and looked at her with a smile.

Fu Xuan was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth, but he couldn't do anything about it for the time being.

I really don't dare to hit him, and I'm afraid that scolding him will hurt his feelings and affect his mood. In the end, I'll be the one who suffers...

"Go and make some tea, then come back and peel some fruit for me!"

"Okay, okay... my little Fu Xuan~"

He responded with a few words that sounded both helpless and pleased, and then leisurely strolled out.

Fu Xuan glared at his retreating figure, then snorted in dissatisfaction, "Who's your little Fu Xuan? I am my own person! You're more like my little Yu Chen!"

However, despite what she said, the temperature in the room without Yu Chen quietly rose a little, and two pink peach blossoms quietly bloomed.

Chapter 50 How to Drink Tea and Jingyuan

The light overhead grew brighter and brighter, gradually reaching its peak for the day, while the clock inside the room continued its tireless ticking.

Yu Chen leaned gently against Fu Xuan, only touching her without pressing his body against hers to avoid interfering with her work. It seemed he simply wanted to touch her and feel her presence.

The Grand Diviner continued to work diligently, striving for the general's position that he might obtain at any time.

The Sword Saint, on the other hand, stared blankly out the window at the sky, which was clear and bright; the weather seemed quite nice today.
