Chapter 475: The Princess’s Public Display of Affection
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“It’s still more comfortable to sleep at home.” After a good sleep, Xia Wanyuan stretched lazily. However, when she looked up, she saw Jun Shiling’s resentful gaze.
Xia Wanyuan found it funny. Thinking about it, she did seem to have neglected him yesterday because of Xiao Bao.
Xiao Bao was packing his bag downstairs when Xia Wanyuan hooked her finger at Jun Shiling. Jun Shiling walked over.
Xia Wanyuan kissed him hard on the cheek. “CEO Jun, smile. You look so pale in the morning.”
“Hmph.” Jun Shiling snorted coldly. “I thought you had forgotten me.”
“Can you take me to work?” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes curved into crescents. No matter how unhappy Jun Shiling was, he gradually smiled under Xia Wanyuan’s bright eyes.
“Okay.”

Jun Shiling personally sent her to the studio. Xia Wanyuan wanted to get out of the car, but Jun Shiling grabbed her wrist.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Wanyuan turned around.
“Can you not talk to that younger brother about anything other than work?” Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan hesitantly.
He knew in his heart that nothing would happen between Xia Wanyuan and that little carrot, but he could not help but want to remind her.
The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up. This person was really… “Alright, I’ll only chat with you, okay? I’m going to be late. Let go.”
Only then did Jun Shiling let go of Xia Wanyuan and watched her walk into the recording building.
Fang Jin still looked lazy. Seeing Xia Wanyuan enter, he handed a script to her. “I wrote a song these two days. Do you think this is suitable?”
Xia Wanyuan looked at it seriously and nodded. “It’s pretty good. The next episode’s theme is summer. Let’s use this song you wrote. Let’s practice it a few times.”
Fang Jin’s song was filled with the passion and vigor of summer. The dance teacher had choreographed the dance moves for them according to this song. She had thought that it would take at least a day for the two of them to familiarize themselves with the movements. Who would have thought that the two of them had extremely solid skills and quickly grasped all the details of the movements?
In just half a day, the tacit understanding between the two of them was developed. The dance teacher went through it and gave an evaluation at the end.
“Perfect.”
When it was time for lunch, the cold and cheerless Fang Jin actually took the initiative to invite Xia Wanyuan to eat with him.
Xia Wanyuan hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Fang Jin looked Asian, but he seemed to be more used to western food. Xia Wanyuan glanced at his awkward expression when he used his chopsticks, and a glint flashed across her eyes.
“Didn’t you grow up in China?” Xia Wanyuan asked casually.
“No, I grew up in America.”
“Then why did you come to China?” Xia Wanyuan felt that although Fang Jin looked lazy, his every move had a good upbringing. He did not seem to be a professional at the bar.
His upbringing had deep confidence.
“I’m looking for a relative,” Fang Jin glanced at Xia Wanyuan and said quickly, then lowered his head to eat and did not speak anymore.
Xia Wanyuan didn’t probe further. Her phone rang. Xia Wanyuan picked it up and laughed.
After agreeing to eat with Fang Jin, Xia Wanyuan sent Jun Shiling a message and reported it in case he misunderstood again.
Jun Shiling had only sent a “Mm, okay.” Xia Wanyuan had thought that this person had improved and he was not angry.
Xia Wanyuan felt an inexplicable urge to laugh when she saw the familiar emoticon of a cat that he had sent her on WeChat.
Furthermore, Jun Shiling was afraid that Xia Wanyuan did not know that he was unhappy, so he sent three emoticons that the cats turned around and ignored her.
Xia Wanyuan replied with an emoticon of patting a cat’s head.
Jun Shiling still replied with a cat turning around.
“I’m done eating. I’m leaving first. Let’s rehearse for another day before the competition,” Xia Wanyuan picked up her phone and said to Fang Jin.
“Okay.” Fang Jin nodded. After Xia Wanyuan left, he made a call. “Hello, I ate with her today. She has excellent upbringing. I can tell that she’s very outstanding.”

Xia Wanyuan came out of the canteen and thought about what she had on hand. She felt that she should finish the painting that she wanted to hand to Principal Yang first.
Sitting in the car waiting outside, Xia Wanyuan looked at the emoticon Jun Shiling had sent her. “Let’s go to the Jun Corporation.”
Although he knew that Xia Wanyuan wouldn’t have anything to do with that young man, the moment Jun Shiling saw Xia Wanyuan say that she had gone to eat with him, he felt sour in his heart. He didn’t even want to eat anymore.
Seeing that Xia Wanyuan did not reply, Jun Shiling pushed the food aside and picked up the document to read it again.
“Are you a child? Why are you throwing a tantrum?” The door was pushed open and a light voice came from the door.
Jun Shiling looked up in surprise and saw Xia Wanyuan walk in.
“Why are you here?” Jun Shiling hurriedly stood up. “Aren’t you going to eat with your brother partner?”
“I’m not welcomed? Then I’ll leave?” Xia Wanyuan pretended to turn around. Jun Shiling hurriedly pulled her into his arms. “You’re welcomed, come and eat with me.”
With Xia Wanyuan by his side, Jun Shiling ate in peace.
“I’ve already finished my rehearsal. I’ll draw here in the afternoon. I’ll accompany you. Don’t be unhappy, okay?” Seeing that Jun Shiling still had a bitter expression on his face, Xia Wanyuan smiled and comforted him.
“Okay.” Jun Shiling’s eyes were dyed with warmth. Xia Wanyuan’s tone was like she was coaxing a child.
For the first time, he felt like he was being pampered.
However, this feeling was not bad.
Uncle Wang sent someone to send the ink and paper over. Jun Shiling’s huge office finally had a use.
Xia Wanyuan was painting at the desk by the window while Jun Shiling was handling various documents and proposals at the desk.
In order not to disturb Xia Wanyuan’s painting, Jun Shiling did not even switch on his computer. The ink was dark, and a faint ink fragrance lingered in the office.
Jun Shiling occasionally got up to pour Xia Wanyuan a glass of water and placed it by the table. Time passed minute by minute, and soon, it was sunset.
Xia Wanyuan finally put down her brush. She took a deep breath. “It’s finally done.”
“Let me see. What did you draw?” Jun Shiling put down the documents and walked towards Xia Wanyuan. He was stunned when he saw it.
Mountains rose and fell, rivers ran without end, and trees grew without restraint. When one looked up, they would see all the rivers and mountains in front of them.
The most eye-catching thing was that in the place where the morning sun rose, a figure stood on the cliff. It was as if he was riding the wind, but also as if he was stepping on mountains and rivers.
Needless to say, the excellent technique of the entire painting was amazing. Just the aura that pounced on them was amazing.
“This person?” Jun Shiling looked at the person in the painting and whispered.
“You.” The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up. “Are you happy, jealous CEO Jun? We can secretly show off our love in front of the world?”
