A whirlwind marriage with a high-ranking official: Lights out, don't force me to take the initi

Outside Su Feng's office, even from a distance through the door, one could hear the heavy thud of Lu Weidong's military boots.

Click, click, click.

Each blow felt like a punch to the chest.

Lu Weidong walked to the door of Su Feng's office and quickly and forcefully pushed it open.

It turned out to be empty...

It wasn't pushed away.

The door was locked from the inside.

Lu Weidong's eye twitched, and a vein on his arm throbbed.

Su Feng knew it was him as soon as he heard the footsteps.

Now, seeing Lu Weidong blocked at the door, he sat on his desk, laughing so hard his shoulders were shaking.

Lu Xiaojun looked at the door, then at Su Feng, and guessed that the person at the door might be his second uncle.

Su Feng finished laughing, stood up, and slowly walked over to open the door.

The door opened.

Lu Weidong's face was ashen, and he stood there like a demon. His eyes were like knives as he glared at Su Feng, wishing he could punch him.

"Second Uncle!"

Lu Xiaojun called out.

Su Feng smiled smugly, seemingly oblivious to Lu Weidong's expression, and stepped aside to let him in.

My gaze first fell on Lu Xiaojun, who was sitting upright and seemed to be in good spirits.

Then it landed on Ye Wenxi, who was leaning back on the sofa, fast asleep with her head tilted back.

Her head was tilted to the side, her mouth slightly open, and she was sleeping without any regard for her image.

Lu Weidong pinched the bridge of his nose.

walk over.

He patted her shoulder with a little force.

"Moonhee...Moonhee..."

"Huh?" Ye Wenxi looked up with a start.

She instinctively wiped her mouth.

He looked around groggily, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

"I was asleep?...Why are you here?...What time is it?"

"Xiao Jun, are you cold?"

Still half asleep, Ye Wenxi blurted out a bunch of questions.

Lu Xiaojun: "Second Aunt, I'm not cold."

Ye Wenxi turned back, looking at Lu Weidong and then at Su Feng with a bewildered expression.

Su Feng leaned against the table, arms crossed, a smirk playing on his lips.

"Finished talking?" Ye Wenxi blinked.

"Okay. Let me take you two home."

"Okay, let's go."

Ye Wenxi turned around and called to Lu Xiaojun, "Come on, Xiaojun, your second aunt will get you some food."

Lu Weidong quickly got up and came over to help her.

Ye Wenxi walked to the door, then suddenly stopped, as if she had remembered something.

"Thank you, Section Chief Su."

She didn't turn around, and after saying that, she and Lu Xiaojun strolled out.

-

Lu Weidong took them to the cafeteria, bought them a bag of food, and then took them home.

But instead of eating with them, she went back to Su Feng's office.

The two of them wanted to talk about Xiaojun.

Lu Xiaojun finished his meal in silence, washed up quickly, and went straight to sleep.

Ye Wenxi didn't dare let him go back to the other room, afraid that he would get a fever or something would happen to his health.

They let him sleep in their bed with Lu Weidong, and covered him with two blankets.

Lu Weihua and I huddled in the small room, taking time to catch up on math.

"You have no problem understanding these concepts."

Lu Weihua flipped through the practice questions Ye Wenxi had done in the past two days, pointing to several red crosses with his finger.

"I haven't practiced enough, so I'm a bit rusty when it comes to solving problems."

"These few shouldn't have lost points."

Ye Wenxi leaned over for a look and nodded.

She felt the same way.

It looks easy, but I fail when I try to do it. I haven't been doing enough practice problems.

After speaking for a little over an hour, Lu Weihua's eyelids became heavy, and he began to draw out his words.

Ye Wenxi told her to lie down on the sofa for a while, and she fell asleep instantly as soon as she lay down, her breathing quickly becoming shallow.

Ye Wenxi covered her with a blanket and then sat back down at the table.

She took a nap at Su Feng's place this morning, so she's not sleepy now.

I opened my notebook and continued writing the site plan.

The to-do list, the procurement list, and the personnel arrangements were all reviewed one by one.

The pen tip stopped at the purchasing section.

Sewing machine, fabric and materials, telephone, mannequin... it costs at least several thousand dollars.

We still need to do GG promotion.

She pulled out her ledger and counted the money in her hand.

It's enough.

But after buying everything, there wasn't much money left in the family.

She didn't plan to touch the money Liu Xiuyun had given them before.

Keep that as an emergency risk reserve fund.

As the business expanded further, the amount of working capital needed also increased.

Typically, based on the investment amount, at least 20% to 30% should be reserved for purchasing goods, paying wages, and handling temporary expenses.

She stared at those numbers for a while.

Then continue writing.

Spend money when you should, invest when you should.

The pen scratched across the paper, and occasionally a bird's call drifted in from outside the window.

The room was very quiet.

Lu Xiaojun was asleep in the inner room, and Lu Weihua was asleep on the sofa. Their breathing was uneven, mixed with the ticking of the wall clock.

Ye Wenxi sat alone in her notebook, slowly listing the things she hadn't done yet.

After finishing the last line, she stretched and her bones cracked twice.

My gaze fell on the calendar: February 14th, just two days until Lunar New Year's Eve.

Zhang Yunxia has been having less and less time lately.

She was always called upon to organize the New Year's activities for the family compound and the military region.

Putting everything else aside, just making dumplings and preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the canteen that night required dozens of helpers, and she had to take the lead in gathering everyone together.

Ye Wenxi closed the notebook and took an envelope out of the drawer.

There are two thousand yuan inside. One thousand is for my parents in Harbin, as money for the Chinese New Year.

She plans to donate the other thousand.

In Lu Zhenghua's name, the donation was given to the front lines of the Sino-Vietnamese War.

She was quite touched when Li Shufen told her about the elderly couple donating their wages.

It's not much money, but it's a token of my appreciation.

She didn't tell Lu Weidong, but she knew he would definitely agree.

Lu Weidong came home right on time, guessing they were catching up on sleep, so he brought a bag of food.

Upon entering, the room was quiet.

He walked in quietly, just as Ye Wenxi came out of the study to greet him.

"Are you hungry?" Ye Wenxi asked softly.

I'm not hungry.

Ye Wenxi took the lunchboxes, boiled water, put the lunchboxes in one by one, and put the lid on the pot.

"Let's eat when they wake up. I'll keep it warm for now."

Lu Weidong hung up the clothes, walked to the kitchen, put his arm around her waist from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and gently kissed her.

"Thank you for your hard work, Moon Hee."

Ye Wenxi placed her hand on his large arm that was around her, turned her head, and gave him a sideways glance with a smile.

"Tell me this."

She paused, a sly glint in her eyes.

"If you want to thank me, you should give me some reward."

Lu Weidong whispered a dirty joke in her ear, and Ye Wenxi blushed and glared at him.

"Is this a reward for me, or for you?"

The two people stood in front of the stove, their bodies swaying slightly, like two trees standing side by side.

The water in the pot was bubbling and steaming, blurring the windowpane.

Ye Wenxi spoke softly:

Do you know what day it is today?

"What day is it?"

Today is Valentine's Day in the West, a day for lovers.

"Oh? Is that so?" Lu Weidong raised an eyebrow.

"So we're going to have a falling out? Let's chase them away in a bit."

"Get lost," Ye Wenxi scolded him, "We don't need to make a special effort."

She paused, her voice softening:

"When two people in love are together, every day is Valentine's Day."

Lu Weidong didn't say anything, but tightened his grip on her arm.

Ye Wenxi turned her head and reached out to touch that handsome face with its distinct features, a cold yet gentle demeanor, meeting his deep, affectionate gaze.

Their eyes met, and their lips touched.

Gentle and delicate, each touch is filled with tenderness and affection for the other person.

Then the kiss grew hotter and hotter.

Lu Weidong reached inside her clothes, his lips and hands passionately demanding her attention.

He suddenly turned her around, and the two embraced, pressing against the kitchen wall.

The water in the pot was still bubbling, and steam filled the entire window.

From the inner room came the sound of Lu Xiaojun turning over, and Lu Weihua on the sofa mumbled something in his sleep.

Ye Wenxi gently pushed him.

Lu Weidong didn't move, his forehead pressed against hers, breathing heavily.

"Waiting for tonight..."

"what?"

"Do what lovers should do."
