Shi Yuanbo felt a bit of pain in his chest, but in front of Shi Nuan, he didn’t want to show it too deliberately.

He said softly, "Tonight, you can take the documents to your room first... Oh, I’ve already had your room tidied up a couple of days ago, so you can just go and live there!"

Shi Nuan responded, pursed her lips, and eventually said to Shi Yuanbo, "Thank you!"

Shi Yuanbo laughed, "Thank me? What for? I know how many mistakes I’ve made in the past. Now, I’m just trying to make amends, even though I know that no matter what I do, I can’t offset my mistakes. I was so terribly wrong..."

...

Shi Nuan really settled down in the Shi Family. Li Guirong felt very displeased, but Shi Jiaojiao seemed indifferent.

Sometimes, when they bumped into each other early in the morning, they could even pretend to greet each other.

When Shi Nuan was abroad, she heard that Shi Jiaojiao was getting engaged, but after returning to the Shi Family, no one mentioned it.

However, Ji Xia’s information has always been accurate, and it’s never just hearsay.

She was curious about what was happening, but for now, the stockholders meeting was more important, and everything else could wait.

All the time coming up, whether at work or off, Shi Nuan spent reviewing those documents. The Shi Family has been established for over twenty years and has experienced many ups and downs. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Although Father’s business talent is average, he’s not entirely incompetent. Shi Nuan felt that she had really underestimated her Father before.

These documents indeed helped Shi Nuan to understand the Shi Family, its main department compositions, branch systems, and even main core members.

Shi Nuan believed that over the past ten years, she had secretly investigated the Shi Family or obtained quite a bit of related information from Ji Xia.

But compared to what Shi Yuanbo had given her, those documents were really insignificant, hardly worth mentioning.

Shi Nuan became very busy, too busy to actively reach out to Song Yansheng.

But when she didn’t initiate, Song Yansheng would, although he didn’t contact her nonstop twenty-four hours a day.

Most of the time, he would choose lunchtime, after work in the afternoon, or at night.

Shi Nuan didn’t tell Song Yansheng that Shi Yuanbo had given her these documents, but she did mention that Shi Yuanbo indeed was helping her.

Song Yansheng laughed, "So do you think the help has been effective, Nuannuan?"

Shi Nuan replied, "Very effective. I feel... I’ve learned a lot!"

Song Yansheng nodded, "That’s good, so I’m waiting for Nuannuan to shine at the stockholders meeting and impress everyone!"

Shi Nuan felt warmth inside, and a slight smile appeared on her lips as she said, "I’ll do my best!"

"Okay, how about having lunch together tomorrow noon?" Song Yansheng asked.

Shi Nuan’s eyes twinkled lightly as she quietly said, "Sure, that’s good."

Song Yansheng chuckled, "Only then does Nuannuan have time, right? So, see you tomorrow noon?"

"Okay. See you tomorrow noon!"

With those words, there was silence between them, and the evening’s cool breeze created a strange atmosphere.

But it wasn’t coldness; rather, it was a hint of ambiguity over the phone line.

Then, Song Yansheng spoke, asking, "Nuannuan, have you missed me?"

Shi Nuan’s face grew warm, and she followed with an "Mm," saying, "...I have missed you!"

Song Yansheng’s voice became joyful: "Then, how much have you missed me?"

Shi Nuan’s face grew even warmer, feeling a bit competitive, she said: "Well, Second Uncle, how much... how much have you missed me?"

"I certainly think of Nuannuan every moment, at every hour... Mm, especially missing you, wishing I could find you right now!"

Shi Nuan found the man’s sweet talk so moving, it was really hard to resist, and he didn’t seem shy about it.

Yet, her heart was involuntarily stirred, and the feeling of a blushing face couldn’t be suppressed.

Shi Nuan bit her lip, said an "Oh," and continued, "Then wouldn’t Second Uncle be seriously distracted while working?"

Song Yansheng chuckled softly, "Indeed, while reviewing documents today, I almost signed your name several times..."

Shi Nuan was embarrassed, this man really knew how to take advantaged opportunities!

She said: "Okay, no more joking with Second Uncle, go to sleep early, it’s getting late!"

"But Nuannuan hasn’t told me yet, how much do you miss me..."

Shi Nuan gritted her teeth, he actually remembered that. She replied, "Tomorrow noon, I’ll treat Second Uncle to lunch, and then... I’ll tell him then!"

Initially, Song Yansheng considered how can he let Shi Nuan treat him, but then thought about it, the little girl recently earned quite a bit and him being treated once wasn’t much, so he agreed graciously.

He said, "Alright, I’ll wait for Nuannuan!"
