Sweet Temptation! The Beauty in President Pei's Palm is Too Alluring

Shu Hua fell backward due to inertia, but Pei Yanzhou caught her steadily. His arm loosely encircled her waist, protecting her in his embrace.

"Are you alright?" he asked, looking down.

"It's nothing..." Shu Hua's heart was beating fast because she had won the game.

Whistles and shouts rang out from all around.

Although no one was looking in her direction, Shu Hua, being shy, quickly pulled away from his embrace.

The design department won the first round.

In the second game, the teams switched sides. The marketing department found a trick, and Chen Yifei adjusted his tactics, winning the game back.

Decisive game.

Both sides gave it their all, the red ribbon in the middle of the rope moving back and forth. Both teams exerted every ounce of strength, resulting in a stalemate that lasted nearly a minute. In the end, the design department narrowly won.

"We won! We won!!!" The entire design department cheered.

Shu Hua was also excited and subconsciously turned around to hug Pei Yanzhou. They almost hugged.

She suddenly realized what was happening, her movements froze in mid-air, and finally she simply reached out and gave him a quick high five.

Then she turned around and ran off to celebrate with Yao Zhiyao.

Pei Yanzhou stood there, watching her back, shaking his head with a mixture of helplessness and affection.

We were almost able to hug each other openly and honestly.

Lunch will be served at the buffet restaurant of the Seven Star Hotel near the stadium.

Shu Hua had just called Chi Yuchu and was a little late returning. As she walked over, she spotted a familiar figure in the distance—

Pei Yanzhou was actually sitting on the design department's side!

Yao Zhiyao, with her sharp eyes, immediately waved: "Sister Hua! Over here!" She pointed to the empty seat next to her, which, coincidentally, was right opposite Pei Yanzhou.

Pei Yanzhou turned around at the sound and saw Shu Hua standing in the corridor. He smiled slightly and gestured for her to come over.

Just as Shu Hua was about to walk over, someone suddenly cut in front of her and blocked her way.

She looked up and saw a young man in a white tracksuit, who looked sunny and handsome.

"Hello," the man said shyly, scratching his head, his voice gentle, "You're Shu Hua from the design department, right?"

Shu Hua nodded, somewhat puzzled: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"My name is Han Zhenghao, from the technical department," he introduced himself, smiling somewhat sheepishly. "Actually... we've met before. I've delivered technical requirements documents to your design department a few times. You probably don't remember me."

He paused, his face slightly flushed, "But I want to say that I've actually been watching you for a long time. I think you're very beautiful and have a great presence."

Shu Hua was taken aback for a moment, then smiled politely and said, "Thank you."

Han Zhenghao mustered his courage: "Um... do you have a boyfriend? If not, would it be convenient to add each other on WeChat?"

The people at the design department's table had already noticed the commotion and were all quietly perking up their ears, their faces showing excited expressions of anticipation.

"Wow, I got hit on again while I was drawing!"

"Is this the troubles of being a beautiful woman? I'm so envious..."

"Isn't that guy Han Zhenghao from the tech department? I've heard he's handsome, and he really is!"

"A sunny, cheerful, big-boy type—that's my type! Too bad he only has eyes for art."

Yao Zhiyao rested her chin on her hand: "There's nothing I can do, our Hua-jie is a heartthrob. But this handsome guy has no chance, my Hua-jie is already taken, and her husband and wife are doing very well."

A colleague who knew Shu Hua was married nodded in agreement: "Yes, every time Hua Hua mentions her husband, her eyes practically overflow with sweetness. He must be an exceptionally outstanding person."

Pei Yanzhou heard all of these words.

His initial displeasure at someone hitting on Shu Hua softened slightly. But seeing Han Zhenghao standing in front of Shu Hua, looking shy and expectant, the fire in his chest still surged uncontrollably.

If it weren't for the agreement to keep their marriage secret, he would have already gone up and pulled her into his arms to assert his ownership. Now, however, he could only sit here and watch.

What kind of employee is he? Instead of focusing on his work, he's thinking about flirting? And the person he's flirting with is his wife.

Pei Yanzhou is unhappy right now, very unhappy.

He calmly withdrew his gaze, unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted his head back, and gulped down a large mouthful of ice water, trying to suppress the irritation in his heart.

The atmosphere at the design department table became somewhat subtle. Everyone could feel the oppressive atmosphere, but no one knew what had happened.

Shu Hua also felt the intense gaze directed at her from the opposite side. She looked up and met Pei Yanzhou's eyes.

He was staring at her, his gaze fixed on her, filled with displeasure.

Shu Hua's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, someone's angry.

It seems I'll have to personally smooth the tiger's fur later.

She said to Han Zhenghao politely but firmly, "I'm sorry, I'm already married. My husband and I have a very good relationship."

Han Zhenghao was taken aback, then blushed with embarrassment: "Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't know... Sorry to bother you."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Shu Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down in the empty seat next to Yao Zhiyao.

"Sister Hua, I've prepared all your food! It's all your favorite dishes!" Yao Zhiyao pushed the plate in front of her like a treasure.

"Thank you, Yaoyao." Shu Hua smiled.

My colleague, who witnessed the whole thing, couldn't help but ask curiously, "You really refused the drawing? You didn't even add her on WeChat?"

Shu Hua picked up her chopsticks and answered naturally, "Yes, I declined. I didn't add you on WeChat." As she spoke, she secretly glanced at the person opposite her.

Pei Yanzhou was slowly and methodically cutting the steak on his plate, his face expressionless, seemingly uninterested in the topic at hand. But Shu Hua could sense that the oppressive atmosphere surrounding him hadn't dissipated.

Another colleague asked curiously, "Huahua, how did you and your husband meet? Your relationship is so good, it's truly enviable."

This question made many people in the design department perk up their ears, and even Pei Yanzhou paused a few times while cutting his steak.

Shu Hua's cheeks flushed slightly, and her voice softened unconsciously as she recalled her time with Pei Yanzhou: "We... were introduced by our elders. At first, I thought he was a bit serious and unapproachable. But after spending more time with him, I realized that he is actually very thoughtful and caring, just not very good at expressing himself."
