Chapter 1342: Sharp‑tongued, tsundere entertainer & ultra‑rich insecure wife 19

Shen Shi naturally took the medicine obediently, drank a big mouthful of water before stopping, looked up at Jin Chen, feeling quite justified and confident as there were no excuses left.

Shen Shi used to feel this way; even if he wanted to act coquettish in his heart, he'd have to restrain himself a lot, ultimately failing at psychological self-comfort.

But over the past few days, many things have happened, making Shen Shi realize that if he keeps his feelings bottled up and says nothing, he could really lose Jin Chen.

"Can I hug you?" he asked softly, not very adeptly nuzzling Jin Chen's nose tip.

Jin Chen wore a "truly can't do anything about you" tsundere expression, saying, "Looking at how obedient you are…"

He pulled Shen Shi back into his embrace, his warm palm gently pressing and rubbing his stomach, dissatisfiedly pinching the soft flesh.

"Why didn't you tell me your stomach hurts? You're a closed-off gourd."

Shen Shi frowned, his slightly pale complexion improving after eating, "There's still a bit of work; I want to finish it then come find you…"

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Shi saw Jin Chen's unpleasant expression, shut up, and decisively changed the topic: "I just saw Cheng Yi go upstairs with you; did you run into each other?"

Jin Chen snorted, "Don't think changing the topic can hide the fact that you neglect other things because of work."

Shen Shi fell silent for a moment, tilted his head and kissed the corner of Jin Chen's lips, "Next time I won't."

He then said, "Now it's your turn to answer."

Jin Chen: "……"

No wonder she's a poisonous beauty who's conquered the business world—her reaction speed is just fast.

Jin Chen played with Shen Shi's fingers, chin resting on his neck hollow, saying, "I'm cooking for a certain big sponsor; I don't have time to look at others."

Only then did Shen Shi smile again, feeling no qualms about his possessiveness.

He glanced at the camera, not really wanting to put his interactions with Jin Chen out for others to see.

Moreover, many people don't wish Jin Chen well, racking their brains to drag him down.

"I want to go up and rest." Shen Shi shifted his gaze, turned his back to the camera, and buried his head in Jin Chen's embrace.

"That's right, just eating this little bit doesn't need digestion aid."

Jin Chen steadily held the person upstairs, his broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted silhouette gradually fading in the stairwell; the hallway leading to the bedroom has no surveillance.

(A bit silent… Who exactly said Jin Chen is a scumbag?)

(Rumors harm people, no wonder Jin Chen says he doesn't believe or spread rumors!!)

(Jin Chen really is too doting… If he were a scumbag, where would any good men be? (dog head))

(The gossip is fake, loving Shen Shi is real; this kind of affection truly shows up in daily interactions and little details.)

Jin Chen's fans have likewise come to know this young man anew; originally most were attracted by his looks, never expecting him to be smart and bold, still the show's sole "Power Representative", doting on his wife beyond measure.

Simply a treasure of a young man!

Given that, their anti-black campaign can be very confident!

With Jin Chen's behind-the-scenes agency doing marketing for him, naturally they won't miss the chance to "whitewash"; all kinds of solo edits and CP interaction videos are uploaded.

Jin Chen's few positive hot searches were discovered by passersby.

#Jin Chen is truly the ideal type

And after watching various cuts, netizens:???

"Holy shit, is this real? Is the Jin Chen on the show really the same person who's always on black hot searches every few days!"

"How could Jin Chen possibly be this doting? Isn't he a selfish, self-serving scumbag?"

"If you're so loving, why is your Weibo interaction like that of total strangers?"

"My goodness, this CP is kinda good to ship!!"

The director team in the control room discovered viewership steadily rising; newly arrived viewers are almost half there for the Jin Chen and Shen Shi couple.

The director happily rubbed his belly, "Ah, this couple really wasn't a wrong choice."

Although early on facing constant scrutiny of Shen Shi made them a bit nervous, thankfully the show's effect is good! Plus they don't have to worry about bad capital, Director Shen is their show's biggest capital!

——

Late at night, Director Shen, having rested enough, lay in Jin Chen's embrace slowly opening his eyes, turned over, and saw Jin Chen watching a movie.

"How did you wake up?"

Jin Chen sensed the movement of turning over, lowered his eyes and touched Shen Shi's warm sleeping face, feeling extremely nice.

"I went to sleep too early in the evening." The just‑awakened voice was also soft; Shen Shi rubbed Jin Chen's palm, "Then why aren't you sleeping?"

"It's still early; it's not my bedtime yet."

Jin Chen turned off the tablet, casually placed it beside the bedside table, and shrank into the blanket.

Then suddenly Shen Shi said, "Let's review what's happened recently."

Jin Chen:?

He opened his eyes, mouth twitching, "Surely it's this time?"

Shen Shi firmly nodded, "Urgent."

What can Jin Chen do? His wide‑awake wife is full of energy, insisting on holding a meeting—what can he do!

Of course, just indulge him.

Both sat up, hugging pillows and leaning against the headboard.

Jin Chen: "Director Shen, where should this meeting start?"

Shen Shi felt a bit embarrassed, pursed his lips, moved closer to Jin Chen, "Should we start with what happened today? Do you really think… having people protect you is not good?"

Jin Chen hummed, his long fingers hooking Shen Shi's soft chin flesh and poking, as if he'd found some fun.

"Shen Shi, I won't abandon you; no need for strict guarding."

He half‑embraced the person, let out a faint sigh, "Those people staring at me give me no freedom; I'm unhappy."

Shen Shi's eyes flickered, he suppressed his inner panic, and grabbed Jin Chen's arm.

"Don't be unhappy… If you don't like it, I won't ever do it again."

There's still a very important point...

Shen Shi's soft voice tugged at the heartstrings, really like acting spoiled: "Even if we argue, don't just leave suddenly... don't say divorce."

After going around in circles, Shen Shi still cared about this matter.

He had finally managed to have his own family, to have love, to achieve what he had sought as a child but could not obtain; he simply couldn't bear Jin Chen's leaving.

Jin Chen rubbed Shen Shi's face, "Alright, I was also in the wrong, Director Shen is magnanimous, let's not quarrel."

His lips curled slightly, he kissed Shen Shi's lips over and over.

"Okay." Shen Shi finally relaxed; after clearing up the misunderstanding, the stone that had been weighing on his heart was shattered, feeling incredibly light.

Jin Chen gripped Shen Shi's waist, suddenly lifted him and laid him on the bed, "Can we sleep well?"

The two words "sleep" were spoken with heavy emphasis.

Shen Shi wasn't a clueless youngster; hearing that, his face flushed slightly, "It's late... tomorrow we still have to get up early to record the show."

I don't care.

Jin Chen seized Shen Shi's wrists and pressed them above his head, his sleepwear slipping to reveal a cold, white, soft abdomen; he leaned in, pressing down, and whispered near Shen Shi's ear, "I'm fulfilling my duty as a husband."

What duty?

Pay the public grain.

Shen Shi: "..."

The sleepwear was skillfully removed; all around was Jin Chen's aggressive sandalwood scent, Shen Shi let out a muffled groan, biting his lip as he wanted to kiss.

Scorching breath sprayed forth; Jin Chen cupped his face and kissed him deeply, filled with a possessive feeling.
