The CEO’s Dancing Wife – Part Two

The next morning, Fu Xiaotang wanted to talk to Fang Junjie, but upon reaching his room, she found he hadn’t returned all night. She checked twice in the morning without seeing him, and her calls went unanswered, with no one knowing where he was. Feeling restless and unsettled, she decided to distract herself by helping Dorlis with the accounts at a nearby company. In just a short while, she made several mistakes, suddenly recalling that Fang Junjie had personally taught her how to do this. The numbers on the ledger seemed to come alive, dancing and spinning before her eyes, making her dizzy, and she had to close her eyes. Dorlis, observing coldly, asked, “What’s wrong, you seem distracted?” Fu Xiaotang shook her head, letting out an almost inaudible sigh. Dorlis, while looking at the ledger, casually asked, “I haven’t asked you, why do you have time to come over this early in the morning? Usually, at this time, aren’t you busy with Young Master Junjie?” The mention of “Junjie” felt like a stab to Fu Xiaotang’s heart. Dorlis, seeing she didn’t respond, studied her for a moment, “You two haven’t had a fight, have you?” Fu Xiaotang gave her a glance without speaking. “I guessed right!” Dorlis clapped her hands and shook her head with a sigh, “It must be because you upset him.” “How could I upset him? Everything was fine,” Fu Xiaotang thought all night without figuring it out. If she had to pinpoint when Fang Junjie started acting off, “it was on our way back, he suddenly stopped the car, and I was startled and resisted…” Dorlis, with her mouth half open, stared at her for a while before exclaiming, “Sister, are you okay?” She gripped Fu Xiaotang’s hand earnestly, “Let me tell you, Young Master Junjie has been very, very considerate of you. I always thought he was like Liu Xiahui, you know, the gentleman. Have you ever kissed? When?” “Yes, we’ve kissed many times, here,” Fu Xiaotang pointed to her forehead, counting. Dorlis rolled her eyes dramatically, pointing to her own lips, “I mean here.” Fu Xiaotang, after a moment’s thought, nodded, “Yes, yesterday, but it was interrupted by Willow and Song Li.” Recalling the kiss in the greenhouse, her heart still raced, but suddenly, Song Li’s cold eyes flashed in her mind, and her heart seemed to be hit back to its place by a heavy hammer. “You’re telling me that yesterday was your first kiss?” Dorlis shook her head in disbelief, “Sister Xiaotang, I truly admire you, and twelve times more so, Young Master Junjie. What were you thinking in the car yesterday, with all the right circumstances? The more polite he is, the more awkward you become, isn’t it? If someone just forced themselves on you, you wouldn’t have anything to say, would you?” Fu Xiaotang was stunned. Dorlis, regretting her words, slapped her own mouth, “Oh, my foul mouth, it’s all because you made me talk nonsense. How could Young Master Junjie be compared to those people!” She paused, making a thoughtful expression, then looked at Fu Xiaotang seriously, “Let me tell you, in my eyes, you and Young Master Junjie are perfect for each other, heaven-made, but the only problem is you two are too formal, too courteous to each other. Do you understand what I mean?” Fu Xiaotang shook her head, “What’s wrong with being courteous?” Dorlis sighed, “It’s like, without passion, you know? To put it bluntly, ‘no friction, no fire of desire,’ or more poetically, ‘if the body doesn’t settle, the soul has nowhere to rest.’ Do you get it?” Fu Xiaotang was somewhat amused and exasperated, “Where did you learn all this from? Lan Jie, ah…” At this, Dorothy’s eyes lit up with infinite admiration and envy, “Do you know how she gets along with Brother Thirteen? They argue every time they meet, and if that doesn’t satisfy, they pinch each other; if that’s not enough, they fight. Wow, that’s sparks flying everywhere, but it feels like they’re in a sweet, sticky mess! If they’re not quarreling for a moment, that’s when something’s off. Look at us! You glance at me, I smile at you, occasionally it’s sweet, but if it goes on too long, it just gets boring! It’s like the candied bananas you made the other day, they’re good, sweet, but they’re just a dessert, an embellishment after a meal. Eat too much, and you get tired of them. To really fill up, you need rice, steamed buns, and bread!”
