The President is Being Shameless Again

She was not someone that quickly warmed up to people, even if it was her work partners or colleagues in the office. She barely interaction with them at work, much less outside the office.

Yu Zi was well aware of her distant personality, but she could also quickly become close with someone she felt good about. It was very rare for her to feel drawn to someone, and she would normally only open up to someone after spending a long time together.

But then there was Yan Huaian. She wondered if she had a special affinity to him.

Truthfully, she had known Yan Huaian for quite some time now, although they were not very close. Even if there was no special affinity, she still thought that Yan Huaian was a good person. He was neither loathing nor annoying, and he could easily make someone fond of him.

In short, she had a great chat with Yan Huaian and was not at all pressured by him.

Yu Zi shook her head. It was, indeed, an odd feeling.

Yue Jingchen squatted outside the gate of the residential area until the lights in Yu Zi’s house were turned off. Then, only then did he realize that even if the man came out, he would not recognize him anyway. With that, he left the place in despair.

However, early the next morning, he came over again.

Yu Zi usually would not drive to work as she would take the subway just like ordinary office workers.

Because of this, he had planned to wait by the gate and intercept Yu Zi to ask her clearly about what had gone on with her and the man last night.

He came early in the morning and did not even have his breakfast yet. Hence, he bought a black rice congee and three steamed stuffed buns from one of the two breakfast carts that were parked just across the road.

He finished everything in two or three bites and threw the trash into the garbage bin that was by the gate before proceeding to wait there for her.

When Yu Zi got up and brushed her teeth in the morning, she smelled whiffs of bacon coming from the balcony next door.

She and Yan Huaian did not install glass windows on their balconies. Yu Zi felt that since there was a French window installed between the living room and the balcony, the presence of a glass window outside would ruin the aesthetics of her place. Furthermore, it would become a nuisance as she had a habit of going to the balcony to take in the scenery from time to time.

As for her neighbor, the original resident was an elegantly poetic madam. She planted many flowers and plants on the balcony and decorated the balcony to be similar to those from French literary movies. Thus, the whole place was surrounded by flowers and plants, making it look bright and magnificent, especially during springtime. It honestly looked like it was straight out of a postcard.

Since the original resident next door had moved out, the flowers and plants were taken with her as well. Now the balcony was empty and uncovered.

The two balconies were side by side and very close together, with a distance of only about a meter between them.

Yu Zi knew that she should not be so curious and nosy. However, she could not help but follow the smell to the balcony. Then, she peered into the balcony next door.

As she poked her head over, she was almost immediately met with a mocking face.

It was Yan Huaian, and he was holding a spatula in his hand. He was smiling faintly as he looked at her, his brilliant eyes appearing very bemused.

Yu Zi blushed and said in an embarrassment, “I’m just taking in the fresh morning air.”

Yan Huaian said nothing but merely gazed silently toward the scenery outside.

There was a layer of gray haze outside, and today’s PM2.5 value was through the roof.

Yan Huaian smiled warmly and walked over. He leaned slightly to one side as he propped his elbow on the balcony railing. His right knee was propped ahead of his left leg as the latter trailed behind, causing his toes to only lightly touch the ground. The whole pose was somewhat unruly.

If a youngster in his twenties had done it, it would look quite unpolished.

However, when he had done the movement, it looked unrestrained, making him appear confident and at ease. Those elegant legs of his were still as long as before, even though they were slightly bent.

Even from an unbiased perspective, his would be the definition of long legs.

Yan Huaian smiled and leaned over. There was still some distance between him and Yu Zi, but Yu Zi could not stop blushing.

Then, she heard Yan Huaian ask, “Are you sure you’re breathing in the fresh air, and not poison?”

Yu Zi, “…”
