Chapter 12 – He is simply the husband of Ruan Xia’s dream

Fu Cheng’an felt a headache coming on.

Sitting on the sofa holding her phone, it seemed like if Fu Cheng’an said even a word of refusal, tears would start to fall from Ruan Xia’s eyes. And that wasn’t all, she would even say it was all her fault.

As long as Ruan Xia stayed quiet, there wouldn’t be any problems.

Fu Cheng’an : “Didn’t you already tell Assistant Chen?”

Ren Xia looked up, “After I told Assistant Chen, I remembered that the smell of the crayfish is particularly strong, and I’m in your office, so I was worried you wouldn’t like it.”

Fu Cheng’an : “As long as it doesn’t disturb my work, it’s fine.”

Fu Cheng’an himself didn’t realize that he had lowered his bottom line for Ruan Xia again, but Ruan Xia did. As long as she didn’t disturb his work, everything was allowed!

Sure enough, he is the novel’s no-CP male lead, he is simply the husband of Ruan Xia’s dreams.

Ruan Xia’s smile was bright. She thought about her future marriage to Fu Cheng’an, where he would give her a black card and tell her that she could only be after his money, not his person, and she couldn’t disturb his work, otherwise their marriage might not be able to continue.

She almost laughed out loud, but thankfully, she held back. She didn’t want to scare Fu Cheng’an.

Assistant Chen came in with two servings of crayfish and entered his boss’s office feeling very nervous. Since he started working with Fu Cheng’an, he had never seen Fu Cheng’an eat crayfish in the office.

It’s true that Fu Cheng’an is a busy person and not particularly fond of food. He prefers to eat plain and healthy food, and is very disciplined. He hardly ever eats oily, salty or spicy food.

Assistant Chen smelled the aroma of crayfish and put the food on the coffee table in front of Ruan Xia, “Miss Ruan, here’s the crayfish you wanted, and this is the juice.”

Fu Cheng’an, who was working at his desk, was indifferent… he didn’t even look over here.

Assistant Chen showed great respect for Ruan Xia and pushed the juice towards her. “Miss Ruan, do you need anything else?”

Ruan Xia said, “Crayfish should be served with Sprite.”

Assistant Chen replied, “Understood, Miss Ruan. I’ll get you some Sprite.”

While holding a pen, Fu Cheng’an paused for a moment, but it didn’t affect him from signing the document. He picked up the next file and continued to read. Besides the company’s lawyers, Fu Cheng’an would also review all the documents he signed. He was very knowledgeable about the law.

Wearing disposable gloves, eating spicy crayfish, and taking a sip of Sprite, with a novel to read on the computer in front of her, it was simply too enjoyable. The only inconvenience was when she needed to turn the page.

Ruan Xia realized she had overestimated herself. She couldn’t finish two portions of crayfish by herself. As someone who hated to waste food, she peeled the crawfish and walked over to Fu Cheng’an’s side, placing the leftovers on his desk with gentle movements.

It was difficult for Fu Cheng’an to ignore Ruan Xia, even if he wanted to.

Ruan Xia : “Hubby, you can eat these, right?”

Fu Cheng’an realized that his sleeve had been tugged by Ruan Xia. When he didn’t say anything, Ruan Xia continued, so he spoke slowly, “Eat.”

Very good, she won’t waste her hard work. Ruan Xia was in a very good mood.

Ruan Xia went to get a disposable glove and looked shyly at Fu Cheng’an. “Please give me your hand.”

Fu Cheng’an had no expression on his face and took the disposable glove from Ruan Xia and put it on himself.

Immediately, Ruan Xia went back to her seat, satisfied. She couldn’t miss reading her novel. In the novel, the male lead had already started pursuing his wife. It was a critical moment.

When it was time for Fu Cheng’an to leave work, Ruan Xia was feeling drowsy. She took a glance at the small crayfish that was still on his desk and sent the work that Chen Assistant had finished to Fu Cheng’an’s email.

Rubbing her eyes, Ruan Xia said, “Honey, I finished my work and sent it to your email.”

Yawning, Ruan Xia followed Fu Cheng’an out of the office. Perhaps because she was too bored, she even found that her pace was very similar to Fu Cheng’an’s.

Ruan Xia straightened her back and played the role of a workplace elite, as an irreplaceable talent to Fu Cheng’an, and she was his personal assistant, whose status was equivalent to that of Assistant Chen.

Ruan Xia stood at the elevator door and felt like she had found something, and began to observe Fu Cheng’an.

Not to boast, if Ruan Xia could have the same demeanor and aura as Fu Cheng’an, her acting career would certainly be wider. Being a secretary is just the beginning, not the end. This raises her status.

Ruan Xia stood behind Fu Cheng’an and stared at him, from his hair to his ears, and then to his long legs… he was really a perfect specimen.

Even though Fu Cheng’an had his back to Ruan Xia, he could feel her hot and intense gaze.

Fu Cheng’an turned around and met Ruan Xia’s gaze, “Stand in front.”

Ruan Xia nodded, “Okay!”

It was another new weekend.

Ruan Xia found something new and fun, a two-player game console that Chu Feng had sent over.

The only one who can play with Ruan Xia is Aunt Sun. Aunt Sun doesn’t know how to play it at first and she refuses, but Ruan Xia teaches her and she finds it interesting after a few rounds.

Aunt Sun : “Oops, I lost again. I won’t play anymore. I think it’s better for you young people to play together. Why don’t I ask Chu Feng to come and play with you?”

Ruan Xia : “No, he’s busy with work these days. He can’t even sleep for eight hours. He loves this game machine, but he doesn’t have time to play with it. So he just gave it to me.”

Ruan Xia presses the game controller a few times and stretches lazily.

She doesn’t envy Chu Feng’s life at all. What she likes more is to do what she loves and make money easily. But this is just a hobby. More importantly, she can enjoy life and be comfortable being a “couch potato,” just like she is now.

It’s a pity that she hasn’t caught Fu Cheng’an yet.

Aunt Sun wanted to suggest having Mr. Fu come and play with Ruan Xia, but she ended up stunned by her own thought.

Before coming to take care of Ruan Xia, Aunt Sun knew about Ruan Xia’s memory confusion and that this “Mrs. Fu” was fake. But now, she seems to have taken it all seriously.

When did it start?

Perhaps it was because of Ruan Xia’s constant calling of “Hubby”. But Mr. Fu is not an ordinary person, how could he lose himself in the constant calling of “Hubby”.

If it were her son, he would have been lost long ago.

Aunt Sun looked lovingly at Ruan Xia. Ruan Xia may seem happy now, but in reality, she must be sad every day for Mr. Fu, wondering why he doesn’t love her anymore.

Ruan Xia also felt bad about using Assistant Chen as her own assistant, but Assistant Chen was just too useful.

[Ruan Xia : Assistant Chen, are you free this afternoon?]

[Assistant Chen : I’m free until 7 pm.]

[Assistant Chen : Is there something you need?]

[Ruan Xia : Do you want to play games?]

[Assistant Chen : Sure, Miss Ruan.]

When Assistant Chen came over, Aunt Sun was preparing afternoon tea, with fruits, desserts, and fried chicken. She was even singing while preparing it.

For Assistant Chen, who works hard every day, it feels like he has seen heaven. This is the life he dreamed of when he was in school, hoping to have weekends like this in the future.

Ruan Xia : “Please sit.”

Assistant Chen : “Miss Ruan, I’m not bragging, but I’m really good at playing games, especially when I was in junior high school. Later, I went to high school, and my family stopped playing games. Then I was busy with my studies and started working with Mr. Fu. I didn’t have much free time to play games anymore.”

That night, Ruan Xia also invited Assistant Chen to have dinner together before he went home.

Assistant Chen seemed a little lost when he left Jiangyue Palace.

Ruan Xia also felt disappointed, “Aunt Sun, it really feels like Assistant Chen is my assistant.”

Aunt Sun nodded in agreement, “Assistant Chen is really good at his job and can even accompany you to play games. As he just said, in the future, you can directly team up online to play games together.”

On the weekend, Fu Cheng’an visited his grandfather at the Fu family estate. He played chess with him, had lunch, and strolled around the estate for a while before returning home.

In the evening, Fu Cheng’an had a dinner party to attend.

Assistant Chen arrived at the Fu family estate with the driver, waiting for Fu Cheng’an in the car.

When he saw Fu Cheng’an approaching, Assistant Chen quickly got out of the car to help open the door.

Fu Cheng’an, who was about to get into the car, paused and furrowed his brow slightly. He looked at Assistant Chen up and down before getting in the car.

After Assistant Chen closed the door, he stood there for a few seconds before quickly sitting in the passenger seat.

Now it’s really hard to guess what’s on Mr. Fu’s mind.

After going over everything that happened today, Assistant Chen couldn’t figure out what he did wrong or if he forgot something.

A faint fragrance lingered in the air, a scent that Fu Cheng’an was very familiar with, it was the scent of Ruan Xia.

It wasn’t a perfume, it was unique, a little sweet but not too cloying, somewhat refreshing.

When the Maybach stopped outside the hotel, Fu Cheng’an glanced at Assistant Chen but didn’t say anything.

Assistant Chen really couldn’t figure out what Mr. Fu meant.

He probably won’t be able to sleep when he goes back later.
