Is Mr. Assistant Angry Today? - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

To create an opportunity for my brother, I deliberately gave Wen Yishi the day off, then dragged my brother over to his place as guests.

While my brother was sharing beautiful panda photos with him, I slipped into the bathroom and pulled out the wrench I had prepared in advance.

A few minutes later, I let out a very affected cry of surprise.

“Oh no! Why is the pipe suddenly spraying water?”

According to my plan, I would be responsible for breaking the pipe, then hand it over to Xie Xiao to fix. That way, he could show off his boyfriend material.

But there was a slight flaw in the plan.

Xie Xiao strode in, brimming with confidence.

Xie Xiao ran back out, still brimming with confidence.

He scratched his beautiful but foolish face. “Hehe, Yueran, I don’t know how to fix pipes.”

Me: “???”

“Then why didn’t you say so when I proposed the plan?”

Xie Xiao blinked innocently. “I only found out I really couldn’t do it after I tried just now.”

Over there, Wen Yishi carried a toolbox into the bathroom.

Over here, Xie Xiao and I started blaming each other, then launched into a massive argument.

I shook him in despair. “How can you not even fix a pipe? Is the thing on your neck just decorative? You useless brother!”

Xie Xiao poked my forehead. “If you’re so capable, you do it yourself. You’re the one who drove him away in the first place, you bastard little sister!”

I stomped my feet. “How am I supposed to do it? He was my Executive Assistant for three years. He’s practically like my own right and left hands. Would you have improper thoughts about your own hands?!”

The moment I finished speaking, a loud bang came from the bathroom.

A few seconds later, Wen Yishi appeared in front of me, completely drenched.

The man who was usually meticulous, never showing the slightest flaw, looked rarely… disheveled at that moment.

His semi-transparent white shirt had lost all ability to conceal anything, clinging wetly to his body and revealing every rise and dip of muscle beneath it.

His lashes were lowered slightly, damp strands of hair plastered to his cool fair skin, making him look like a pitiful dog caught in the rain.

“I’m not very good at plumbing or electrical repairs,” he said, looking at me intently, his tone a little troubled. “Now the pipe has completely split open, and I can’t fix it for the time being. What should we do?”

As he spoke, he bent his long index finger and casually wiped away the water streaming down to his jaw.

With that one wipe, his knuckle just happened to brush past the absurdly alluring little mole below his lip.

I had no idea what was going on.

It was clearly a face I saw day and night, a face I knew so well I couldn’t possibly know it better.

Yet at that moment, that tiny mole made my heart inexplicably speed up.

Before my brain could catch up, my body had already reacted.

I raised my hands to cover Wen Yishi’s ears. When he tilted his head in confusion, I turned to bare my teeth at Xie Xiao.

“Fine! I’ll do it myself!”

Of course, I definitely would never have improper thoughts about my own right and left hands.

I was only pretending to be utterly captivated by him. In truth, I planned to use our romantic relationship to morally blackmail him.

After all, he wouldn’t abandon his girlfriend and jump ship to someone else’s company, right?

Mm. Everything was going according to my plan.

As for whether Wen Yishi would get mad?

Oh, come on. It was just a romance-themed prank. Wasn’t he already used to it by now?

Last time, when I pretended to be well-behaved, he was unhappy about that too.

So he definitely wouldn’t mind this time either.
