The voluptuous and beautiful nanny, Technician Shen fell for her.

The man's body pressed down on her like a mountain, completely enveloping her in shadow.

"You really haven't been there?" Shen Huai lowered his head, his breath brushing against her cheek.

Su Nianhe was pushed to the limit.

She was already holding her pee, and now he was blocking her door in the middle of the night and interrogating her.

She was a nanny from the countryside, living in fear and trembling every day in this house, and yet she was still bullied like this by him.

Even clay figures have a touch of earthiness.

"I haven't been there, that's all!" Su Nianhe pushed his shoulders hard with both hands, her eyes completely red, her voice filled with obvious grievance and annoyance, "Why does Technician Shen keep asking me this? In the middle of the night, you're blocking my door. If Aunt Liu sees this, how can I stay in this house?"

Shen Huai was stunned.

He never expected that this rabbit, who usually wouldn't even dare to breathe loudly, would dare to talk back to him.

Taking advantage of his moment of distraction, Su Nianhe pushed his hand away and slipped past him.

"You have status and position, so you don't care what others say. I'm just a nanny; I have my pride too!"

After saying that, Su Nianhe ran down the corridor into the restroom at the end without looking back.

With a "bang," the wooden door slammed shut and locked.

The corridor returned to silence.

Shen Huai stood still, maintaining the same posture as before.

He looked at his empty palms. The warmth of her lower back still lingered on them.

Her words, spoken with red eyes, echoed in his mind.

I still have a sense of shame.

Shen Huai lowered his hand and let out a long breath.

Indeed, what is he doing, blocking someone's door in the middle of the night to ask such a question?

If it really is her, how dare she admit it?

If it weren't for her, how would his behavior be any different from that of a hooligan?

Shen Huai stood in the corridor for a while until he heard the sound of water coming from the toilet before turning around and walking up the stairs.

In the toilet.

Su Nianhe leaned against the pool, panting heavily.

She looked at herself in the mirror.

That was too dangerous.

If she hadn't pushed him away with all her might, she was afraid she would have given herself away on the spot.

After relieving herself, Su Nianhe lingered in the toilet for quite a while.

Judging that Shen Huai had already gone upstairs, she quietly opened the door and slipped back to her maid's room, hugging the wall.

Lying back on the hard bed, Su Nianhe wrapped herself up tightly in a thin blanket.

She absolutely cannot have any more private contact with Shen Huai.

This man is too dangerous.

He looks cold and aloof, but once you get close, his oppressive and aggressive nature is impossible to hide.

The next morning.

The clear sound of bicycle bells rang out in the courtyard.

Su Nianhe got up very early as usual.

After feeding Shen Ping'an, she handed the child to Aunt Wang and went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Liu Huizhen got up early today, dressed neatly, and her hair was combed perfectly.

She walked to the kitchen doorway, glanced at Su Nianhe, and instructed, "Nianhe, make two extra egg pancakes for breakfast. Xiao Huai is going to meet someone at the state-run coffee shop this morning, so he needs to eat well."

Su Nianhe paused for a moment while kneading the dough.

Going to a state-run coffee shop to meet someone?

Although she hadn't stayed in the city for long, she knew that state-run coffee shops were places where young men and women would meet and find partners.

Technician Shen is going on a blind date.

"Okay, Aunt Liu." Su Nianhe lowered her head and continued kneading the dough.

The dough was kneaded until smooth in her hands, but she couldn't quite describe the feeling in her heart.

Some parts felt empty, while others tasted sour.

This is a good thing.

She told herself.

If Shen Huai marries a girl from the city who is his equal, he will no longer be kind enough to take care of her, his country nanny.

That kind of thing, where someone blocks the door in the middle of the night, won't happen again.

She could then work peacefully at the Shen family's house, save enough money to move out, and never have to go back to Liuhe Village again.

Breakfast was served.

Shen Wanshan sat in the main seat reading the newspaper.

Shen Tao and Wang Liping had not yet come downstairs.

Shen Huai, wearing a brand-new white short-sleeved shirt and crisp navy blue trousers, came down from the second floor.

He was already tall and aloof, but after tidying himself up a bit today, he was even more handsome and imposing, and even the coldness in his eyes seemed to have dissipated.

Liu Huizhen looked at her youngest son and nodded with satisfaction: "Eat quickly, and then pack up and head over. That girl is a member of the propaganda department, an educated person, so don't give her a cold look."

Shen Huai pulled out a chair and sat down without saying a word.

He picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of egg pancake.

Su Nianhe carried a bowl of hot porridge out of the kitchen and placed it in front of Shen Huai.

"Technician Shen, your porridge." She spoke in a very calm voice, without even glancing at him.

Shen Huai's gaze fell on her face.

Today she wore her braids coiled at the back of her head, revealing her smooth neck.

He was still wearing the same old jacket, the collar buttoned up meticulously.

He was so well-behaved that he couldn't be more so.

Recalling how she fought back with red eyes in the corridor last night, Shen Huai's hand holding the egg pancake froze in mid-air.

She heard that he was going to have a marriage proposal, so she deliberately distanced herself from him.

Shen Huai put the egg pancake back on the plate and suddenly felt he had no appetite.

"Xiao Huai, why aren't you eating?" Liu Huizhen asked.

"I'm not hungry." Shen Huai picked up the bowl of porridge, took two sips, and put it down.

He stood up, picked up his briefcase from the back of the chair, and said, "I'll go to the factory first, then I'll go to the coffee shop at ten."

After saying that, he strode out of the house, pushed his bicycle out of the yard.

Su Nianhe stood at the kitchen door, watching his figure disappear outside the iron gate.

She turned back to the sink, picked up a rag, and vigorously wiped the cutting board, venting all her inexplicable frustration on her work.

10:00 AM.

Soothing music played in the state-run coffee shop.

Shen Huai sat by the window.

He was sitting opposite a lesbian woman wearing a dress.

The woman was pretty and spoke softly, constantly trying to find topics to talk about.

"Comrade Shen, I heard your textile factory is currently introducing new equipment. You must be very busy?"

Shen Huai placed his hands together on the table, but his eyes were fixed on the street outside the window.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the woman awkwardly picked up her coffee and took a sip.

Shen Huai withdrew his gaze and looked at the woman opposite him.

It's a respectable and proper match, a good match in terms of social standing.

But he found it utterly boring.

"I'm sorry, but to be frank, I personally don't want to get to know you anymore." Shen Huai suddenly stood up. "I have things to do at the factory, so I have to go."

The woman was stunned: "But we've only been sitting here for ten minutes..."

Shen Huai didn't offer any further explanation. He went to the counter, paid the bill, and then pushed open the glass door and walked out.

The sun is very strong outside.

He got on his bicycle, but instead of heading towards the textile factory, he inexplicably ended up on the street where the municipal party committee compound was located.

In the distance, he saw a figure wearing a blue floral shirt carrying a vegetable basket walking out of the grocery store.

Su Nianhe had just bought the vegetables, tofu, and other things she needed for lunch.

The basket was quite heavy. She carried it for a while, until her palms turned red from the pressure, so she stopped under the shade of a tree by the roadside and switched hands.

Just as she finished switching hands, a bicycle stopped in front of her.

Shen Huai braced himself on one leg, his tall frame blocking the glaring sunlight.

Su Nianhe looked up and froze.

Wasn't he on a blind date at the state-run coffee shop? What's he doing here?

"Get in the car, I have something to tell you."

Shen Huai looked at her, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.
