She made numerous edits, then studied the end-product for ten minutes. In the end, she suddenly had a breakdown!
She stood up abruptly and swept the laptop off the table with her hands.
The cup of coffee on the table fell off the table as well and shattered on the ground. The pungent aroma of the coffee invaded the entire room.
Si Jingyu stood there, breathing heavily. She pressed one hand against her rapidly beating heart. It took a while before she calmed down.
She had worked hard on it.
In the last couple of days, she really had no inspiration in coming up with new designs – she couldn’t come up with something with the effect she wanted.
But if she didn’t deliver the designs to the manufacturing company, then it would be too late. The designs for clothes meant to be sold in winter had to be delivered in autumn.
She only had four or five days more to come up with suitable designs.
Si Jingyu could not delay the company’s schedule. She had no other choice. She thought for a while, then checked the time. It was only 8 pm. Hence, she wrapped her pajamas tightly around herself and walked out.
She had been trying to convince Si Zhengting in the past couple of days to do up a set of design drafts for her. From what she could recall, Si Zhengting had seemingly agreed to help her draw one today.
As Si Jingyu dwelled on the matter, she forgot that Si Zhengting was a married man. She stood outside his bedroom and knocked twice on the door casually, then pushed it open. “My beloved Ting, about my design drafts…”
The couple were on the large bed in the room and were mainly done with foreplay – they were about to move on to the main theme when Si Zhengting heard noises coming from outside the room. He hurriedly tugged on the blanket, covering both his and Zhuang Nainai’s bodies, and immediately glared angrily at the door.
At the threshold of the door, Si Jingyu gaped in surprise. Only after seeing the couple in bed did she realize that her younger brother was married. So now they were doing something… which was inappropriate among youngsters?
Si Jingyu was shocked for that one instant – her cheeks were flushed and she looked a little awkward. However, in the next moment, her awkward expression vanished and she shut her mouth calmly. Then, not only did she not leave, she also even self-righteously inquired, “Where did you put those design drafts that I asked you to help me with?”
Si Zhengting: “…”
Zhuang Nainai: “…”
Zhuang Nainai felt embarra.s.sed to death. She reached out for the blanket and used it to cover her face!
To be seen by Sister in such a state… was too embarra.s.sing, was it not!?
The most important thing was that it was only 8 pm. Did it seem as though they were too impatient to wait for a later time to be intimate together as a couple?
Ahhhhhhhh, could she just find a hole to burrow into right now!?
Seeing how shy and embarra.s.sed Zhuang Nainai was, Si Zhengting’s heart ached. He was deathly afraid that she would suffer from heat exhaustion at this rate. Hence, his gaze became colder. “On the study table.”
Si Jingyu acknowledged his words with an affirmative sound and immediately pushed the door behind her. “Then you both can continue with what you were doing, I won’t disturb you any further~!”
Zhuang Nainai thought to herself, You’re done interrupting us?
Zhuang Nainai was ready to die from embarra.s.sment.
Even after Si Jingyu had left, she still refused to emerge from underneath the blanket. She was way too embarra.s.sed to do so.
But she could hear Si Zhengting’s cold voice even from under the blankets. It was slightly hoa.r.s.e as he said, “Nainai, it’s alright now.”
Alright my foot!
Were they really going to resume what they were doing in such a situation?
Zhuang Nainai pushed Si Zhengting away. She seemed unable to form a complete sentence. “You, you, move away!”
But Si Zhengting didn’t just stay where he was, he also reached out his hand and pulled the blanket covering Nainai away. Zhuang Nainai was whining and protesting under the covers.
Si Zhengting was at his wits’ end. It was likely that he could physically overpower her and remove the blanket, but he was afraid that if he did so, he would hurt her in the process.
