I Break Tycoon's Immune Barrier-Chapter 535 Embrace and Welcome

Su Zixi watched the floor numbers gradually descend, but her face showed no unusual expression; even the smile she had given Adam just before was still lingering.

Outside the company’s main entrance, Uncle Li stood by the car and was very surprised to see her come out so soon.

"Is the young master not in the company?" Uncle Li asked.

Su Zixi smiled and shook her head, "No, he’s at the company, but he’s busy right now, so I might as well go home and wait for him."

"That sounds good." Uncle Li smiled.

"By the way," Su Zixi added nonchalantly, "don’t tell Jingyao I was here, otherwise he might get angry."

Uncle Li nodded knowingly: "Alright."

Su Zixi smiled slightly.

...

Wanhe Qianfeng Garden.

Su Zixi stayed in the kitchen, painstakingly making the cookies she had already made several times before, tasting them after finishing, frowning with distaste, and starting over.

It took several hours, but she finally chose a batch she was satisfied with, just as He Jingyao was about to return home.

Su Zixi decorated this batch of cookies and placed them on the counter, admiring them with satisfaction.

Uncle Li commented with a smile: "The Young Mistress has a lot of potential."

"I think so too, I should have learned cooking earlier," Su Zixi muttered to herself.

Just then, the sound of an engine came from outside.

Su Zixi’s expression brightened, and she hurriedly took off her apron and ran to the door.

She was swept into a full embrace by He Jingyao.

"Su Zixi, can’t you be a little more ambitious?" the man teased in a husky voice, "You miss me this much after half a day?"

"Yes!" Su Zixi cheerfully nestled into his embrace, "I tried making a type of cookie, do you want to try them? I think my cooking isn’t bad, it won’t poison your stomach!"

Her tone carried a hint of coquetry.

"Alright," He Jingyao said with a teasing pinch to her cheek, "since you’re not giving up, I guess I’ll have to try them."

"If you don’t eat them, I’ll give them to Uncle Li," Su Zixi huffed discontentedly.

Uncle Li, who was caught in the crossfire from a distance, quickly waved his hands: "Young Mistress, please, I never eat cookies!"

A hint of amusement flashed in He Jingyao’s eyes as he took her hand, saying, "Alright, I’ll come and eat."

The two went to the dining room where He Jingyao looked at the beautifully arranged cookies on the table and smiled: "They look quite good."

"They taste even better!" Su Zixi boasted shamelessly.

The man smiled, picked up a piece, and put it into his mouth, immediately filling his taste buds with a rich flavor.

Su Zixi watched him expectantly.

After He Jingyao finished, he didn’t speak, but he showed his approval with his actions—he picked up another piece.

Su Zixi immediately beamed with joy.

"I told you they were good, right?" Su Zixi hugged him, excited beyond measure.

"If you keep this up, I might stop eating," He Jingyao, warmed by her antics, warned in a huskier voice tinged with a hint of danger, "Su Zixi, don’t push your luck."

She quickly let go of him, resorting to an eye assault instead.

He Jingyao couldn’t resist anymore, pulled up her chin, and kissed her passionately, feeding her half of the cookie she had made herself.

...

That night.

Just after He Jingyao had finished taking a bath, a soft body flung itself into his arms.

He looked down at her with a profound gaze: "Su Zixi, is this... a willing embrace?"
