The Daughter of the Enchanted in the Modern Age
Chapter 271
When they returned to the manor, it was already a bit late. Xiao Bao had already gone to sleep obediently.
Nanny Li had already prepared all the food that Xia Wanyuan wanted to eat in the dining room.
It had been a long time since he had eaten something spicy. When Xia Wanyuan ate, her eyes shone.
Jun Shiling sat at the side and watched quietly, flowing warm water to Xia Wanyuan from time to time.
After Xia Wanyuan ate a bowl of rice, Jun Shiling reached out to stop him from grabbing forward with his chopsticks.
"Enough. If you eat again, your stomach will hurt."
Xia Wanyuan pursed her lips and finally pulled her chopsticks.
In the end, what Jun Shiling was worried about happened.
After dinner, Jun Shiling went to take a bath and Xia Wanyuan ate watermelon ice again.
When it was time to go to sleep, Xia Wanyuan's stomach started to ache.
"You really ..." Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan helplessly and turned to get the medicine for her to finish.
Jun Shiling picked up the heat packet and placed it on his stomach. He hugged her from behind and propped up the hot pack with his hands.
"If it doesn't heal, we'll call the doctor."
However, Xia Wanyuan turned around, put away the hot pack, and hugged Jun Shiling's waist.
"Round. I'll warm your stomach.”
"No, I just want to sleep like this." Xia Wanyuan shook her head and curled into Jun Shiling's arms.
“You really...” Jun Shiling's lip angle is curved.
"Why are you becoming more and more like a spoiled child these few days?" Jun Shiling reached out and hugged her tighter.
“I can't?” Xia Wanyuan closed her eyes and lay on the cold pine scent, feeling very comfortable.
Jun Shiling smiled. "Of course you can. Go sleep. Call me if your stomach hurts tonight. Good night."
"Good night."
Fortunately, stomach medicine is effective. Xia Wanyuan slept well the entire night.
There wasn't much to do over the past two days, so Xia Wanyuan slept even more soundly. When he opened his eyes, he realized that Jun Shiling was still awake.
“Why don't you go to work?”
"I'm afraid your stomach hurts, so I'll go after breakfast with you." Seeing that Xia Wanyuan was already awake, Jun Shiling got up to pick up his clothes.
However, just as Jun Shiling was about to sit down, Xia Wanyuan pulled him back.
“Come wake up later.” Xia Wanyuan leaned into Jun Shiling's embrace. Her hairy hair tickled Jun Shiling's heart.
“I want to stay with you longer.”
Xia Wanyuan's dependency and gentleness were like a helpless kitten to someone close to her. Jun Shiling's heart melted.
"okay." Jun Shiling fell asleep again and kissed him.
"You only know how to act coquettishly everyday."
The two of them were lazing around for a long time before Jun Shiling helped the lazy Xia Wanyuan put on her clothes, patiently put on her shoes, and brought her down for dinner.
After dinner, Jun Shiling went to work.
“I don't have anything today. I want to go to the company with you.” Seeing Jun Shiling about to leave, Xia Wanyuan felt a little reluctant.
Thinking that she had nothing to do at home, she wanted to follow him.
Jun Shiling looked at the unwillingness in Xia Wanyuan's eyes and his heart skipped a beat. A smile appeared on his face.
“You are very sticky.”
Jun Shiling reached out and raised him.
"Let's go work together."
Xia Wanyuan smiled. He seemed to become increasingly dependent on Jun Shiling.
This guy is too good to her.
He was so kind that no matter what he did or how he made a fuss, this fellow would give me endless tolerance and gentleness.
The strength, disguise, and cold demeanor he had trained with great difficulty after walking alone for so many years had all retreated under Jun Shiling's endless gentleness.
When they arrived at the company, Jun Shiling dealt with things on the side.
Other than Jun Shiling, no one around him knew that he was Yuan Wanxia. When this news broke, everyone marked it in the production team group to ask the truth.
Even Tang Yin and Chen Yun could not believe it. Although they knew that Xia Wanyuan usually liked to read, there was a legendary difference between her fondness of reading and a professor at Qing University.
Xia Wanyuan replied to the messages one by one.
The group of Qing University professors fell silent.
Professors are usually very busy with research and do not pay much attention to the news on the Internet. It was only when they arrived at the school in the morning and heard from the young teacher at the academy that they learned that Mr. Yuan Wanxia was actually a 22-year-old female celebrity.
The professors saw a beautiful profile picture smiling in the group and began to doubt their worldview for decades.
It turned out that Yuan Wanxia did not use the photo of the female celebrity he liked as his photo, but this female celebrity was himself??
The unconvinced professor ran over to admire Yuan Wanxia's painting again. He still could not match Xia Wanyuan to Yuan Wanxia.
In the end, the dean spoke in a group.
“Teacher Yuan Wanxia, we should call him Professor Xia is now a colleague in the same department as us. Let's get together and get to know each other.”
Xia Wanyuan replied, "OK."
The impasse broke out, and the professors started talking in groups. Everyone was discussing meal times.
After agreeing on the time, the professors turned around and thought of the reward they had prepared for Yuan Wanxia.
Crutches, health supplements, wheelchairs…
Forget it, the professors thought. I have to keep it to myself.
After chatting with the professors, Xia Wanyuan was about to turn off her phone when she suddenly received a friend request.
Xia Wanyuan clicked on it and looked at the smiling profile picture. He verified the message.
“Can I get a friend spot?”
“...” Xia Wanyuan subconsciously glanced at Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling, who was reading the documents seriously, deeply felt Xia Wanyuan's gaze. He stopped what he was doing and looked at Xia Wanyuan.
"What's wrong?"
Xia Wanyuan shook her head.
"It's okay."
Then, he reached out and clicked on the delete verification message.
At Glory World Corporation, Xuan Sheng leaned on the sofa and looked at his phone for a long time. He was not approved as his best friend.
Xuan Sheng had been abroad for many years and was not familiar with social media in the country. He waved at his assistant.
“Why is there nothing?”
The assistant looked at his phone carefully and hesitantly.
"Speaking. Why are you stuttering?” Xuan Sheng picked up the phone impatiently and added again.
"Young Master, maybe the other party doesn't want to add you and delete the verification message…"
In the end, the assistant's voice became softer and softer. However, to his surprise, Xuan Sheng was not angry. Instead, he calmly put down his phone.
“Oh, okay, forget it. I will not add any more. Go and pour me a cup of tea.”
"okay." The assistant turned around and walked out.
He suddenly remembered that he had come to deliver the documents. He hurriedly turned around and wanted to hand the documents over to Xuan Sheng.
Xuan Sheng, who had just looked indifferent, was looking down and rubbing the side of his phone. No one knows what he's thinking. In the eyes of that assistant, the side of the normally evil crown prince's face of the Glory World Corporation looked extremely desolate.
The assistant stopped in his tracks. For some reason, he felt it was inappropriate to disturb Xuan Sheng right now. Therefore, he lightened his steps and turned to leave the office.
Finally, after replying to everyone's messages, Xia Wanyuan turned off her phone, took off her shoes, and lay down on the sofa. After looking at her phone for a long time, Xia Wanyuan felt her eyes tired, so she propped up her head with her hands and looked at the blue sky and tall buildings outside the window.
However, gradually, Xia Wanyuan's gaze landed on Jun Shiling, who was reading the documents seriously.
Jun Shiling, who was sitting upright and wearing a suit and shirt while working seriously, looked extremely charming. Xia Wanyuan had never told Jun Shiling that she actually really liked Jun Shiling's appearance when she was serious.
Jun Shiling, who had just turned the page very quickly, gradually slowed down until he stopped reading the documents.
