"I certainly won't!" Yun Shunan said with determination.
After speaking, Yun Shunan stared intently at Mu Qi.
"I won't let you go," Mu Qi sighed, pulling Yun Shunan into his embrace.
If he could let go, their relationship wouldn't have begun.
"But Mu Qi, are you happy with me?"
Yun Shunan always felt she wasn't giving enough. Seeing Mu Qi, she always felt a pang of heartache.
Yet, she didn't know how to comfort him.
Mu Qi: "Happy."
"You're lying. You've clearly been unhappy these past few days," Yun Shunan retorted immediately, looking up.
"Then tell me, if we weren't together, could I still live?"
Mu Qi's tone was fierce, his heart filled with a growing anxiety.
What Yun Shunan said landed on Mu Qi's heart like a rejection of his company.
Yun Shunan: (⊙o⊙)…
Yun Shunan was speechless.
This statement was fundamentally incorrect, yet it inexplicably reassured her.
"Mu Qi, life is important, but so is happiness.
So, is there anything I can do that would make you happy?"
Yun Shunan asked earnestly.
"Be Madam Mu, and never leave me," Mu Qi said after a moment of silence.
"Besides that."
Yun Shunan frowned. What Mu Qi wanted was something intangible.
Even if she thought of it, Mu Qi would find it difficult to believe without reservation.
Mu Qi shook his head: "I'm not greedy."
"I want you to be greedy," Yun Shunan, like a little bully, tightened her grip on Mu Qi's chin.
"Don't meet with Ning Chen," Mu Qi said after a brief pause, avoiding Yun Shunan's gaze.
Yun Shunan paused, then realized, "Mu Qi, so you're jealous of Ning Chen."
"So, do you agree?" Mu Qi's inscrutable gaze fell back on Yun Shunan's face.
Yun Shunan immediately nodded, then asked with some hesitation:
"I can avoid seeing him, but if he insists on appearing before me, then it's not my fault, darling~"
"Mm."
Mu Qi was surprised by how easily Yun Shunan agreed.
Previously, Yun Shunan's greatest desire was freedom, yet now she so readily agreed to his request just to make him happy.
Realizing this, the corners of Mu Qi's eyes curved upwards.
Seeing Mu Qi's long-lost smile, Yun Shunan relaxed a little.
Not seeing Ning Chen would make Mu Qi happy, and if Mu Qi was happy, Yun Shunan would be happy too.
"Anything else?" Yun Shunan continued to ask.
Mu Qi shook his head.
"Really? I don't mind if there's more. This is a golden opportunity."
"No more." Even as he said these three words, Mu Qi was smiling.
Yun Shunan finally felt completely at ease.
"Then I won't disturb Mr. Mu's work," Yun Shunan said, about to get off Mu Qi, but he held her waist tightly.
"Mm?" Yun Shunan turned her head to look at Mu Qi in confusion.
Mu Qi paused, then, as if remembering something, slowly released Yun Shunan.
Yun Shunan keenly sensed that the person she had just comforted was now starting to become unhappy again.
So, Yun Shunan silently had someone bring a chair and sat beside Mu Qi, staring at him.
Yun Shunan wanted to thoroughly understand the logic behind Mu Qi's mood swings.
"Darling, why are you unhappy again?" Yun Shunan's voice was very gentle, easily mesmerizing Mu Qi.
Mu Qi's Adam's apple bobbed, and he then softly opened his lips, "You think I'm clingy."
Even though Yun Shunan had told him he wasn't clingy at all.
This matter had always bothered Mu Qi.
He was always worried that Yun Shunan was just appeasing him when she said he wasn't clingy in the bedroom.
After speaking, the corners of Mu Qi's eyes began to redden.
Yun Shunan: (⊙o⊙)…
Despite everything, Yun Shunan found Mu Qi to be almost too adorable.
"How could I possibly find you clingy? You're not clingy at all, and I love having you by my side."
Yun Shunan hugged Mu Qi tightly, her voice soft and sweet.
Mu Qi turned his head, staring intently at Yun Shunan, as if trying to discern if she was being genuine.
"If I want to see you, can I find you anytime?"
"Cough, of course, but when I'm in the bathroom, you'll have to wait a moment."
"If I can't sleep at night, can I kiss you? The kind where I can feel the warmth of your blood."
Yun Shunan: (⊙o⊙)…
There was no need for such specific details, was there?
Yun Shunan: "I suppose so."
Mu Qi's eyes brightened, and he then asked, "From now on, can we eat all our meals in my arms?"
Yun Shunan nodded, her face growing redder.
...
Mu Qi made many more requests, and Yun Shunan agreed to them all.
When Yun Shunan saw that Mu Qi was now beaming with happiness, she quickly interrupted his continuous questioning.
"Darling, it's time to work now. We can talk later, there's no rush."
Yun Shunan turned to escape, but Mu Qi pulled her back into his embrace.
"Now, stay in my arms with me," his deep, magnetic voice whispered in Yun Shunan's ear. Yun Shunan nodded with a blush.
However, only a few seconds later, Mu Qi suddenly restarted the video conference.
Everyone watching through the screen: Σ(⊙▽⊙"a
Caught off guard, Yun Shunan: Σ(⊙▽⊙"a
Someone reacted first: "Good morning, President. Good morning, Madam President."
The others followed suit: "Good morning, President. Good morning, Madam President."
...
Yun Shunan, blushing, nodded to each of them. Then, like a koala, she turned and wrapped her arms around Mu Qi's neck, burying her head in his neck.
Mu Qi smiled, one arm around Yun Shunan's waist, while the other gently stroked her head.
Seeing Mu Qi's radiant expression, everyone sighed, feeling the arrival of spring.
Throughout the rest of the meeting, everyone felt Mu Qi's unusual gentleness.
Even when a simple mistake like misdating an event occurred, Mu Qi didn't raise his voice.
His tone was soft and measured, as if he was afraid of disturbing the treasure in his arms.
After the meeting concluded, everyone sincerely felt that in future meetings, Madam must always be held by the President.
Meanwhile, Yun Shunan, feeling perfectly at ease in Mu Qi's arms, had fallen asleep.
She was completely unaware that by simply changing her sleeping spot, she had fulfilled the wishes of so many people.
