On normal days when there were matters on hand to occupy her, she didn't feel tired . But sitting there, she just couldn't overcome her exhaustion .
Everyone's gaze followed Yan Rusheng's and shifted towards Wen Xuxu .
Seeing her asleep, everyone murmured incessantly .
This . . . this Secretary Wen is too bold and outrageous, falling asleep in the middle of a meeting .
Of course, regardless of the comments made, they were not as exaggerated as Wen Xinyi's remarks .
She looked at Wen Xuxu who was sleeping soundly, and a sense of resentment flickered in her eyes .
Falling asleep while she was speaking was a form of mockery to her .

"Yan . . . " She opened her mouth and yearned to complain to Yan Rusheng .
Before she could continue, Yan Rusheng raised his arm and interrupted her, "The meeting is adjourned now . "
His voice was faint and inaudible, with the intention to curtail the conversation .
Even while he was speaking, his gaze was still on Xuxu's face which looked peaceful in her sleep . The hint of a tender smile gradually filled his charming peach blossom-shaped eyes .
Those present were likened to the corporate world's white bone demons—they were all extremely treacherous . They only regarded their brains as tools of the trade to help them earn a living .
After Yan Rusheng had spoken, they understood immediately that he didn't want to wake Secretary Wen from her sleep .
Each and every one of them took their things and left the room quietly without even bidding Young Master Yan goodbye .
The people left one after another except for Wen Xinyi who took her time packing her things; she wasn't willing to accept this setback .

She endured so many late nights preparing this proposal just for today .
Yet, it was ruined by Wen Xuxu .
As she thought about this, she glared at Xuxu menacingly .
Unexpectedly, Yan Rusheng suddenly looked at her direction .
She immediately lowered her head in guilt, stood up reluctantly and left the room .
Wen Xuxu, bear this in mind . I won't let you succeed .
After Wen Xinyi left, Yan Rusheng boldly fixed his gaze on Wen Xuxu's body, admiring her peaceful countenance . He was calm and unruffled .
Suddenly, Xuxu's head moved a little .
Yan Rusheng guiltily averted his gaze and smoothly reached for a file to hold in his hand, pretending to read through the documents .
He stole a glance at Xuxu from the corner of his eyes . She raised her head, tilted her neck to one side and continued to sleep peacefully, with no intention of waking up .
He slowly turned his head to look at her again as she sat sound asleep . This was a sight that warmed and calmed his heart .
He leaned to one side, propping an arm on the back of the chair and supported his head with three fingers . His handsome face smiled tenderly .
Even time felt gentle .
She must be having a dream . Xuxu knitted her eyebrows and curled her pursed lips . She looked so lovely and adorable that it tickled his heart .
He couldn't resist the urge to inch closer to her bit by bit .
He especially loved the sweet fragrance emitting from her body, be it from the scent of her shower gel or the washing detergent she used .
It teased his racing heart .
His lips finally touched her tender red lips, and his heart melted .
He pressed his lips against hers, fixing his eyes on her gorgeous face .
Wen Xuxu, when I draw closer and closer to you, can you keep still without hiding away?
The cellphone on the table suddenly vibrated and smashed this beautiful moment .
He frowned with displeasure and withdrew his lips from Xuxu . Swiftly, he picked up the phone and pressed the end-call button .
He had a sudden thought: 'I should take a photo of this lovely and serene-looking Xuxu while she sleeps . '
