Chapter 79: Don’t Touch Me!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ji Weixi’s head was pressed into her chest. His clean scent invaded his brain, preventing her from keeping her calm.
She gave up after struggling fruitlessly for a while, and cleared her throat.
“President Li, I’m your subordinate. What if another employee sees you like this?”
“I’m hugging my woman. What is there to think about?”
Ji Weixi really wanted to shoot back ‘don’t touch me!’
However, she chose silence since that would hurt her image.
“Wow!” The little one scrambled to them, clapping his hands as his eyes sparkled. “Mommy, Daddy, marry right now!”
“I’ll have a sister if you marry!”
Li Shaoling released Ji Weixi then but not before tousling her hair, and then told the little one, “Sleep alone tonight if you want a sister.”
The little one pouted immediately. “Daddy… I don’t want that… why do I have to sleep alone for a sister?”
He did not understand. They could just have a sister, why hide it?
Li Shaoling proceeded to dupe the boy with the most serious face. “Your sister will be very ugly if you’re there.”
The little one took him at his word. “…Does that mean my sister will be super beautiful if I don’t disturb Daddy and Mommy?”
“So clever. You really are my son.” Li Shaoling was very satisfied.
Meanwhile, Ji Weixi’s face went black, and she cursed softly, “Li Shaoling, you’re a beast!”
Li Shaoling moved close to her again, his eyes narrowed in a grin. “Hadn’t you experience my beastliness already?”
Caught speechless, Ji Weixi could have spat blood right in his face.
Utterly irritated, she simply left the office.
The little one, still holding his Detective Conan figure, looked up and asked, “Daddy, could you play with me?”
However, any hint of a smile was gone from Li Shaoling’s face right after Ji Weixi left.
He returned to his desk with an inscrutable look.
“Play yourself.”
Wife-stealing rascals did not deserve fatherly love!

Around noon, Ji Weixi was planning to take the little one and Tian Miaomiao to eat downstairs when a professionally dressed woman entered, carrying a large bouquet of flowers.
“Excuse me, which one of you is Ji Weixi?” she asked.
“I am.”
“Could you please sign here?”
Even as Ji Weixi was left taken aback, the entire bouquet was stuffed into her arms. The faint sweetness reached deep into her, and there were still droplets on its red-colored petals.
Tian Miaomiao felt really envious. “Sending roses now? Xixi, President Li’s so nice to you!”
Ji Weixi plucked off the card that came with the flowers and eyed her. “It’s not him.”
She did not even have to guess to know that a strong and silent man like Li Shaoling would never give flowers.
Ji Weixi could tell at once from his utterly unskilled and shallow proposal last night—he was beyond strong and silent, because he did not have a single romantic cell.
Tian Miaomiao craned her neck for a look.
The card wrote: From Nanfeng with love.
“Bleurgh…” Tian Miaomiao held her hand over her mouth. “Oh my god, how thick is his face? Is it made of Kevlar? Why can’t he take a good look at himself—does he even deserve you?!”
“Mommy!”
The little one yelped nearby and was running towards Ji Weixi. “Mommy, whose flowers are those?”
Ji Weixi was about to answer when the card was snatched off her hand.
Li Shaoling read it and promptly tore it into pieces, before grabbing the flowers from her and stomped it.
Tian Miaomiao was scared to death right then, as if Li Shaoling was trampling over Mo Nanfeng himself and not flowers.
Then, the tattered roses were all thrown into a bin.
Ji Weixi was left helpless and speechless at the sight of the flower sap on the floor. “Li Shaoling, the flowers were innocent.”
Did he have to be so violent?
Li Shaoling smiled coldly. “What? Are you sad about the flowers from your old flame?”
“…What do you mean, old flame? I told you there’s nothing between us.”
He laughed shortly, but that sound would leave anyone tightening at the stomach. “Then why would you accept his flowers?”
Ji Weixi could feel that they were on completely different wavelengths.
Moreover, Li Shaoling was stubborn and would never back down from a fight. Now that he’s angry, she was digging her own grave if she retorted.
Hence, she forced herself to yield. “Let’s go eat.”
“I want to eat you right now.”
Every type of alarm signaling danger was blaring around Li Shaoling.
