SCHS - Chapter 93

Chapter 93

Wen Shixue felt that if there were fireworks in the sky tonight, the most dazzling one would definitely be her, because her dear Vice President Qin was secretly confessing to her again. No matter how many times this routine came, as long as the other person was Qin Zhen, she would willingly fall for it, completely captivated.

If her back wasn't sore, she would definitely use physical action tonight to tell Qin Zhen how much she liked her confession.

A hint of joy unconsciously touched her brow as she turned her spectating gaze towards the girl who had come to strike up a conversation. The girl's expression was very rich, showing disappointment and embarrassment, finally apologizing regretfully, "Oh, I see... I'm sorry, I bothered you."

The girl turned and left, quickly joining her friends again, complaining awkwardly, "They already have a child, how embarrassing, it's all your fault!"

Wen Shixue paused at her words: "...?"

Young lady, your comprehension skills are lacking!

Qin Zhen smiled lightly, saying nothing, as if all of this was within her expectations.

Wen Shixue eagerly pushed the snacks on the table towards her, saying earnestly, "You have to go back and nurse the baby, you've worked hard, eat more."

She even helped her get into character. Wen Shixue didn't know whether to praise her for being considerate.

Qin Zhen sighed helplessly and dotingly, picked up her chopsticks, accepting her attentiveness, and asked at the same time, "What were you going to say just now?"

Wen Shixue thought for a moment and asked, "Nothing much, originally seeing that you didn't mind Pan He coming over, I just wanted to ask if you minded him knowing about us."

One should look at a scholar with new eyes after three days. Qin Zhen had been with her for so long, her temperament must have been influenced by her to some extent, and her behavior was also changing, for example, starting to subtly confess to her in front of outsiders.

But that was still subtle, a confession hidden beneath the words, not yet open and aboveboard. So she wasn't sure if Qin Zhen could accept outsiders knowing about their relationship now, including Pan He.

Qin Zhen fell into silent contemplation, saying nothing. After a moment, she looked up at her gently and said with sudden clarity, "If he's going to find out, he will eventually find out. It's not something I can change by minding or not minding, so let's just let nature take its course. Do whatever you want to do, that's fine."

Their current relationship was no longer airtight. Anyone with a bit of sense could see that they were closer to each other than to others. Of course, this closeness could be explained and covered up with a thousand reasons. People would believe whichever reason they wanted to use. For example, Bai Jing thought their relationship was good because Qin Zhen was a trusted confidante personally chosen by Wen Lianchang to be by Wen Shixue's side. Wen Lianchang wouldn't harm his only daughter, so Qin Zhen was the most trustworthy person in all of Chenfeng for Wen Shixue, and it was only natural for their relationship to be better than with others.

Pan He had been able to work by Xu Rangshan's side for so many years without being replaced, which meant he must have extraordinary ability and insight. If it was destined for him to discover this matter, they couldn't hide it no matter how hard they tried. It was better to maintain the status quo and let nature take its course.

Constantly hiding would only exhaust both of them physically and mentally. It was better to be a little more open, even just a little, which was enough to make them feel relaxed and at ease. Moreover, liking someone was actually impossible to hide. Even without saying a word, love would flow out from the smile on their lips and the light in their eyes.

As for how Pan He would speculate about this matter, no one could guess. It was better to prepare mentally and have countermeasures ready, calmly welcoming every future outcome, so that they wouldn't be caught off guard and embarrassed by any unexpected event.

Wen Shixue nodded: "I understand." Then she solemnly held her hand, quickly changing the subject: "Teacher Qin, don't worry, I will definitely exercise properly."

Qin Zhen was stunned for a moment, suspecting that the sun had risen from the west today, and couldn't help but laugh: "Hmm? Why the sudden decision?"

Wen Shixue smiled brightly, her smile comparable to the warm sun in winter, her eyes clear and extremely innocent: "Because I want to give you happiness."

Wen Shixue: If my wife can stay up all night, then so can I. A family must be neat and tidy!

Qin Zhen: "..."

Was she talking about the kind of happiness she was thinking of?

...

The next morning, Wen Shixue stood in the walk-in closet, yawning while picking out clothes. She thought that this weekend, she must ask Xu Jianfan to come in the afternoon, absolutely not disturbing her precious time for sleeping in by even a minute. She walked back and forth in front of her two large racks of new clothes, picking for a long time but couldn't find anything she liked. So she turned around and looked at Qin Zhen's clothes.

She usually wore Qin Zhen's clothes at home quite often. Whether she accidentally stained them or accidentally damaged them, Qin Zhen never said anything, just indulged her capriciousness and her various little thoughts that could make one's waist sore. So she believed that if she wore Qin Zhen's clothes to work today, Qin Zhen wouldn't say anything either!

So she pulled out one of Qin Zhen's black shirts with a red half-moon button embedded in the collar and calmly began to pick out matching items.

It wasn't until they got to the company that Qin Zhen realized Wen Shixue had worn her shirt out.

After the meeting, Wen Shixue didn't return to her own office. She turned her steps and walked into Qin Zhen's office very naturally, asking with a smile, "Lao Qin, do I look good in what I'm wearing today?"

Qin Zhen slowly put the lid back on her thermos cup while looking up at her outfit.

Under the black shirt was a dark red high-waisted pencil skirt, paired with black chunky-heeled ankle boots, making her figure appear even more slender and shapely, dazzling and eye-catching, as beautiful as ever.

Qin Zhen didn't notice anything at first. After a couple of glances, she finally realized something was wrong—wasn't that her shirt?

She immediately came back to her senses, realizing that she had unconsciously gotten used to Wen Shixue wearing her own clothes, just like she was used to the sun rising in the east and the moon appearing at night, so much so that when Wen Shixue suddenly wore her clothes out of the house, she couldn't react immediately.

The "culprit" was still smiling, leaning on the office desk and looking at her, waiting for her comments.

Qin Zhen suddenly felt both helpless and amused. She wasn't angry with her and accepted the matter very naturally, her voice still gentle and warm: "Why did you wear my clothes out?"

Wen Shixue shrugged frankly: "Wearing my girlfriend's clothes to work, that's what I wanted to do."

As for why she didn't match them with her girlfriend's pants or skirts, it was mainly because... they were a bit long.

She turned around, trying her best to show off her charm: "How is it, doesn't it look good?"

"It looks good." Qin Zhen said with a smile, genuinely, "Our Shixue looks good in anything."

Wen Shixue raised her eyebrows and smiled, radiant: "Right, I look good in anything." Then she walked to her side, leaned close to her ear, gently blew a wisp of air, and said ambiguously, "I look best wearing nothing."

Qin Zhen: "..."

"Lao Qin, your ears are red," Wen Shixue said with a laugh.

Qin Zhen raised her hand and covered the little hooligan Wen's eyes, her embarrassed and helpless voice falling into her ear: "Stop messing around, we still have to go to the logistics department now."

The warm breath gently brushed against Wen Shixue's ear, stirring her heartstrings, making her feel a little itchy, really wanting to kiss her, right now.

She said, "Lao Qin, I want to kiss you."

Qin Zhen was about to remind her that they had important business and the office wasn't convenient, but unexpectedly, she picked up on her thoughts first and said consciously, "Kiss me when we get back."

"Kiss me somewhere more convenient."

...

Pan He helped Xu Jianfan get some documents from the marketing department. When he came back, he happened to see Wen Shixue and Qin Zhen returning from the logistics department.

The three of them met. Wen Shixue was holding a small, exquisite white clutch bag in her hand and greeted Pan He cheerfully. Qin Zhen nodded silently to him.

He stepped aside, inviting the two of them to go first. As Wen Shixue walked past him, his gaze immediately landed precisely on the red half-moon button on her shirt collar, and then he looked at the black shirt...

He remembered that Qin Zhen had worn this shirt just a few days ago, on the day his young master and Wen Shixue had lunch alone.

He slowly adjusted his glasses, silently watching their retreating figures.

Miss Wen was actually wearing Qin Zhen's clothes... Why would Miss Wen be wearing Qin Zhen's clothes?

He was always someone who would solve a problem immediately if he could. At this moment, he intended to chase after them and ask presumptuously, but before he could take three steps, he watched with his own eyes as Wen Shixue pulled Qin Zhen by the wrist and turned into the women's restroom.

He wisely stopped his steps, his question frozen there. After a moment of silence, he turned around and continued to deliver the documents to Xu Jianfan.

Wen Shixue stepped onto the spotless tile floor, looked at the empty stalls on both sides, smiled with great satisfaction, and led the bewildered Qin Zhen straight to the last stall. She closed the door behind them and looked at her, asking, "Do you think Pan He recognized that this is your shirt just now?"

Qin Zhen hadn't noticed Pan He's expression just now. Her mind was entirely focused on the little devil's sudden idea of going to the restroom—why would she go to the restroom when she didn't need to? But now she understood.

Qin Zhen couldn't give a precise answer and replied, "Perhaps."

Wen Shixue nodded lightly and waved her hand: "Forget it, he's not important."

After saying that, she put the bag she was holding aside, leaned forward in a surprise attack, and kissed her: "My Lao Qin is what's important."

Qin Zhen's neck was gently pressed down, meeting those two soft and gentle lips. At first, Qin Zhen felt a bit awkward and her movements were cautious. Gradually, she realized no one was coming, and her heart relaxed. Her offensive became more unrestrained, wantonly plundering every wisp of breath that belonged to her between her lips and teeth.

To her, Wen Shixue was like a brightly colored honeyed fruit. Every bite made her unable to resist taking a second bite, a third bite... Finally, she fell deeper and deeper, unable to help but tightly hold her in her arms, unwilling to let go again.

Amidst the lingering affection, Wen Shixue's hands began to become restless, and then Qin Zhen tightly grabbed her wrist, her breathing becoming ragged. In the brief moment of panting, she still said aggrievedly, "When we're kissing, your hands don't have to be so well-behaved."

Qin Zhen kissed the corner of her eye, comforting her: "Not here, be good." She then touched her lips apologetically, "Your lipstick is a bit smudged."

Wen Shixue immediately raised her bright eyes and said very reliably, "Don't worry, I brought things to touch up my makeup, and I brought your shade of lipstick too!"

After saying that, she looked at her with an expression that seemed to say "praise me," and if she had a tail behind her, it would probably be wagging proudly up to the sky.

Qin Zhen: "..."

You look like you've been plotting this for a long time.

...

On Saturday afternoon, Xu Jianfan and Pan He visited as agreed. Xu Jianfan presented gifts and exchanged pleasantries with Wen Shixue, acting without emotion but putting on a show, acting until Pan He felt he was trying hard to cultivate feelings.

Qin Zhen brought the three of them warm black tea. Seeing this, Wen Shixue immediately got up to help serve the tea, then sat down and continued chatting with Xu Jianfan, her expression completely natural.

Pan He glanced at their interaction. His keen intuition suddenly kicked in. He excused himself, saying he didn't want to disturb their conversation, and then asked Qin Zhen to talk on the balcony.

There was no snow today. The warm sunlight was cut into pieces by the clouds and meticulously pasted onto the balcony, forming straight lines from the iron railing to the plain white wall. Qin Zhen carefully closed the glass door to the balcony to prevent the wind from blowing in and freezing the two inside, especially the one with low immunity in her family.

She asked, "Secretary Pan, is there something you need?"

Pan He glanced inside, keenly noticing that the two inside were chatting more naturally and relaxed after he left. Then he calmly withdrew his gaze, looked at Qin Zhen, and asked a question—

"Why was President Wen wearing your clothes the day before yesterday?"
