You'd better look back, Mr. Shen is about to break.

Chapter 191 Clingy

After Shen Mochen took a fall, his career took off like a rocket. After attending the company's monthly meeting at the end of the month, he resigned and started his own business. With his ability to leave no room for criticism, he successfully propelled his newly established company into the top ten listed companies in the business district.

His resignation wasn't entirely unexpected; anyone with eyes could see that ever since Shen Mochen made a name for himself at the subsidiary, Long Aoshi had been intentionally or unintentionally suppressing him.

Not only did they assign a manager from the head office to keep an eye on him, but they also always handed over deals that Shen Mochen was about to close to other subsidiaries at the last minute, resulting in Shen Mochen's subsidiary always ranking at the bottom in monthly performance.

Not only did they not give him performance bonuses, they also frequently used the excuse of promoting him to make him work overtime for free, so that he had very little time to spend with Yu Nanqing.

So his resignation went very smoothly, and many people from his subsidiaries even followed suit and went into business with him.

Because he had made many friends in the business world, his new company had many partners and received a considerable number of orders.

Once the company stabilized, Shen Mochen rarely went there anymore. Under the guise of making amends, he squeezed every last drop out of Yu Nanqing.

He's like a living god, he never gets tired no matter how much he does.

For seven days and seven nights, apart from taking care of meals and going to the toilet, Yu Nanqing didn't get out of bed. He was so exhausted that he thought he was about to ascend to heaven.

Her back and legs ached, and even her fingers were so weak she could barely lift them.

The dim yellow light poured down, casting dense patterns on the snow-white cotton quilt.

Yu Nanqing struggled to open her eyes, glanced at the still-lit bedside lamp, and as soon as she opened her lips, a tearing pain shot through her throat, burning and making her furrow her brow.

She exhaled softly, struggling to pull her legs out of Shen Mochen's arms, which were sandwiched between her like a sandwich filling. As soon as her feet touched the ground, her waist was grabbed, and then she was uncontrollably pulled into his warm embrace again.

The intense movement caused her so much pain that she couldn't even control her facial expressions.

"Where are you going, little one?" A hoarse, deep voice sounded in his ear, and Yu Nanqing felt a chill run down his spine, his heart clenching involuntarily.

"I'm going to the toilet," Yu Nanqing said helplessly, struggling as she spoke.

"Oh... good boy, hurry back." The voice behind him rang out after a two-second silence. Seeing that Shen Mochen seemed unaffected, Yu Nanqing frowned, still angry, and slapped him across the face after getting up.

Shen Mochen finally woke up completely, staring at her intently. After a couple of seconds of silence, he pulled back the covers, crawled out of bed naked, and picked her up.

He wasn't satisfied with just hugging her; he also nibbled on her ear a couple of times, saying, "Let me carry you, sweetie."

A sudden feeling of weightlessness washed over her, and Yu Nanqing's heart leaped into her throat. She instinctively wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, and upon hearing his words, her face flushed red and then turned pale.

She's like this not because of him.

When the two people came out, Qiuqiu, who was lying in the corner of the living room, just raised its head and glanced at them. It was already used to it. It turned its head and looked at the bowl full of dog food in the dog bowl. It went over and nudged it with its nose. It chewed a couple of pieces and then lay back down to sleep.

After using the restroom, Yu Nanqing was no longer sleepy.

I've been sleeping and waking up intermittently these past few days. Although I'm physically tired, I feel pretty good mentally.

She went outside and stared at Shen Mochen, who was leaning against the window, for a moment before turning around and stepping into the kitchen.

She grabbed a box of ice cream from the refrigerator without a second thought, glanced at Shen Mochen's expression, and took a bite.

It wasn't until she took her fifth bite that Shen Mochen spoke up to stop her.

Yu Nanqing was still not satisfied, but she was content. She obediently put the lid back on and put the ice cream back.

Shen Mochen had only been asleep for less than an hour. His hair was disheveled, he had dark circles under his eyes, and he looked listless but had bright eyes. He looked just like a world-weary wolf who had met a delicious little lamb.

Yu Nanqing swallowed hard, and involuntarily reached out to cover his eyes. When her fingertips felt hot and itchy, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and then turned around and walked towards the room.

Shen Mochen paused for a moment, his eyebrows slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.

He turned and followed her. When he entered the room, Yu Nanqing had already crawled into bed, with only half of her head sticking out, her dark eyes darting around.

Shen Mochen chuckled, his heart melting with tenderness, finding his wife utterly adorable.

Yu Nanqing anticipated his movement and nimbly flipped over when he raised his foot again, causing him to miss his target.

Shen Mochen let himself sink into the bed, and after a long while he sighed and turned to look at her, "I have to go to the company tomorrow, can't you let me hold you a little longer, sweetie?"

As he spoke, his hands were still quite restless, hooking the hem of her pajamas and slowly rolling it up.

"I've hugged you enough these past few days," Yu Nanqing complained, though her body betrayed her words as she snuggled back into his arms.

He was overjoyed to be able to hold her again, burying his head in the crook of her neck and nuzzling her gently, "Wife~ you smell so good~"

Yu Nanqing couldn't stand his rubbing against her, and couldn't help but think of the cat cafe across from the company. She had seen people hugging and cuddling the cats several times.

She felt sorry for the cat back then, and now that she understands, she feels even more sorry for it.

"Honey, have you thought about what I told you last night?" Shen Mochen held her tightly, and only asked when drowsiness gradually crept in.

Yu Nanqing paused, her droopy eyelids lifted, and her thoughts returned to last night.

Exhausted and on the verge of death, she was in a daze when she seemed to hear him ask a question, something like... moving?

She hesitated before asking, and seeing Shen Mochen nod, she pursed her lips and asked, "Where are we moving to?"

She thought it was a nice place; although small, it was very cozy.

Besides, she's already gotten used to living there.

"Shuijun Bay." Shen Mochen bit her earlobe, his teeth lightly rubbing against it twice.

Yu Nanqing was startled, half-awake from sleep, and immediately sat up in bed. "Where are we moving to?"

Seeing her strong reaction, a flicker of unreadable emotion crossed Shen Mochen's eyes. He concealed it well, and Yu Nanqing didn't notice it at all.

“Shuijun Bay.” Shen Mochen repeated, and fearing that she might overthink things, he simply explained, “I had someone start construction half a year ago and built a villa exactly like Shuijun Bay. Even the flowers you like in the yard were replicated one-to-one.”

Hearing him say that, Yu Nanqing breathed a sigh of relief and lay back down with peace of mind. "Is the location far? Will it be inconvenient for commuting to work?"

"It's not far, about the same distance as my current apartment to the company."
