My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 750 - : 750, say Auntie
Chapter 750: 750, say Auntie
“Sorry, I slept in a bit. Have you been waiting long?”
Su Wanwan quickly shook her head, “No, we’ve just arrived.”
Yan Shunhua smiled and began to read the script on the table.
The living room fell quiet again.
Mary came today to deliver the scripts, saying that Yan Shunhua had been discussing a few scripts recently, and once she had made her selections, she would begin preparing for production.
Su Wanwan understood how rare it was for a director to come across a great script, so she sat quietly to the side, not daring to interrupt.
She spent a substantial amount of time reading the script.
After more than two hours, Yan Shunhua finally put down the last script, “I’ll take another look at these two, forget the rest for now.”
“Okay.” Mary quickly collected the passed scripts and made a note of it.
“Wanwan, please bring this one home tonight and review it. We can discuss it tomorrow.” Yan Shunhua handed one of the two scripts to Su Wanwan.
Su Wanwan quickly took it, “Okay.”
It was quite thick. The pressure to finish it tonight was intense.
Yan Shunhua massaged her temples, “What time is it?”
Mary checked the time and immediately stood, “It’s already five in the afternoon, Chairwoman, we should go.”
“Okay.”
Su Wanwan also stood up, but then…
“Wanwan, stay a bit.” Yan Shunhua suddenly intervened.
“Okay.”
Mary gave her a glance and left with her things.
“Sit.”
Su Wanwan sat back on the sofa and obediently asked, “Chairwoman, do you need something else?”
“…” Yan Shunhua looked at her, a subtle smile curling her lips, “Why are you addressing me as Chairwoman now? Didn’t we agree you’d call me Auntie Yan?”
Su Wanwan explained, “I think I should address you as Chairwoman like Sister Mary does, it’s not really appropriate to call you Auntie…”
In the past, it wasn’t a big deal since they weren’t working together, but now Yan Shunhua was her supervisor, and calling her “Auntie” in front of colleagues wouldn’t be appropriate.
Yan Shunhua laughed, “But I prefer you calling me Auntie Yan.”
Su Wanwan blinked at her.
“How about this? In private, you call me Auntie Yan, and in public, call me Chairwoman. Okay?”
“…Okay.” Su Wanwan could only agree.
Yan Shunhua’s voice was just too gentle, and the warmth in her eyes made Su Wanwan powerless to refuse her request.
She couldn’t help but think: What kind of man would be fortunate enough to marry Yan Shunhua?
Yan Shunhua was beautiful, talented, wealthy, and even-tempered.
A real goddess.
Yan Shunhua then said, “It’s almost dinner time. I wanted you to stay and have dinner with me.”
“Huh?” Su Wanwan was startled.
She thought there might be some important matter at hand, and never expected it was…
“I eat by myself every day and have lost much of my appetite.” Yan Shunhua explained.
“Okay.” Su Wanwan picked up her phone, “I’ll just call my husband and let him know.”
“Sure.”

Su Wanwan immediately got up and went out to the balcony to call Huo Jingshen.
“Baby.”
Listening to his deep, magnetic voice, Su Wanwan coughed awkwardly, slightly flustered, “Husband, I’m at Auntie Yan’s place. She wants me to have dinner with her, so I might be home a bit late.”
“Okay.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Does he really agree so readily?
“What’s wrong?”
“You agreed so quickly?”
Something seemed off.
Huo Jingshen chuckled, “Baby’s started working now and it’s normal to have your own social circle. Plus, you even informed me in advance. That’s very considerate.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Huo Jingshen even asked, “Do you need me to pick you up?”
“No need. I’m at the mansion, it’s too far. I’ll take a cab back.”
She had come in Mary’s car, so her only option was to take a taxi back.
Huo Jingshen hummed in response, “Be careful on the road.”
“I will.”
After hanging up, Su Wanwan returned to the living room only to find it empty.
There were sounds coming from the kitchen, probably the maid preparing dinner.
Su Wanwan sat on the sofa, picked up the remote, and turned up the volume on the TV.
“Meow.”
Suddenly a meow rang out.
Su Wanwan turned and saw the plump Garfield cat had somehow jumped onto the couch, staring at her with a blissful and dopey expression.
Before she could react, the Garfield cat trotted over, its model-like strut ending in a jump right into her lap, where it comfortably lay down.
Su Wanwan was stunned.
Has the cat made its nest on her lap?
It’s just too fat, even fatter than the “Pao Pao” from Chu Xiuhuang’s house. It settled on her legs and soon her knees felt warm.
She looked up at the living room. It was empty.
Su Wanwan took out her phone and readily snapped a few pictures of it, then patted its head.
The Garfield cat squinted its eyes, allowing her to pet it, behaving remarkably well.
“Miss Su?” The maid suddenly spoke.
Su Wanwan quickly looked up, “What’s up?”
The maid explained, “This is Miss Yan’s cat, brought from America, it’s very temperamental. No one except Miss Yan is allowed to touch it. Last time I tried, it scratched my hand to pieces.”
“Really?” Su Wanwan looked at Qianqian.
It seems quite well-behaved though.
The maid smiled, “It seems to like you.”
Su Wanwan asked, “Where is Chairman Yan?”
“She’s cooking in the kitchen.”
“What?”
Upon hearing that, Su Wanwan immediately picked up Qianqian, put her aside and headed straight to the kitchen.
…
Once she entered the kitchen, indeed Yan Shunhua was cooking by the stove.
She was still wearing her nightgown, only she had put on an apron and had rolled up her sleeves, her hair was also tied up.
“How did you get in?” She looked at Su Wanwan, “Just wait outside, it’s just a few home-cooked dishes that will be ready soon.”
“Auntie Yan, why are you cooking personally?”
Su Wanwan had initially thought the maid was cooking, she quickly said, “Do you need my help?”
A smile deepened on Yan Shunhua’s face, “Aren’t you unable to cook?”
Su Wanwan was startled, “How do you know I can’t cook?”
Yan Shunhua was taken aback for a moment, and then she laughed, “Which of today’s girls can cook? And you’re so beautiful, why would your husband let you do housework?”
“Uh…” Su Wanwan coughed twice.
“Alright, you can wait outside, it’ll be ready soon.”
“Okay then.” Su Wanwan, feeling somewhat embarrassed, quickly scampered out.
**
An hour later, Su Wanwan was somewhat flabbergasted as she looked at a table full of dishes.
“I’m not sure what you like, so I made a few random dishes.” Yan Shunhua said, picking up her chopsticks to serve her some food.
Su Wanwan, “…”
After a while, she said, “I like all these dishes.”
The stir-fried pork with screw pepper, tomato beef stew, sweet and sour ribs, corn ribs…
And there’s just so much, two people can’t possibly finish all of it.
“Really?” Yan Shunhua smiled, “Then eat more.”
Su Wanwan picked up her chopsticks and had a bite.
“Is it delicious?”
Su Wanwan looked up to see her expectant eyes, and nodded, “Delicious.”
Yan Shunhua immediately beamed more brightly, quickly picking more food into Su Wanwan’s bowl, “Eat a little more if it’s delicious, you’re too thin.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Thin?
She lowered her gaze to her own chest.
Where is she thin?
…
After dinner, it was already past seven o’clock.
The maid was clearing up. Su Wanwan saw the time and said, “Auntie Yan, I should go now.”
“We’re a bit far from the city here, let me call someone to give you a lift.”
“No need, I can take a taxi by myself.”
“No, it’s not safe for a girl like you, and you’re so beautiful, taking a taxi so late.” With that, Yan Shunhua picked up her phone and started to dial.
Su Wanwan glanced out of the French window.
Though it was after seven in the evening, it was still light outside.
“He lives nearby and will be here soon,” Yan Shunhua said.
“Alright then.” All Su Wanwan could do was to nod in agreement.
The maid soon served up some after-meal fruits. Su Wanwan sat there nibbling on them while lost in thought.
Yan Shunhua was just too kind to her.
At first, Su Wanwan thought it might be because Yan Shunhua wanted to collaborate with Huo Yuan. But after some interactions with her, she didn’t think Yan Shunhua was the type of woman who would intentionally try to please others for work reasons.
Besides, given Yan Shunhua’s status and position, she really didn’t need to please anyone, did she?
After about ten or so minutes, the sound of a car horn echoed from outside the door.
“He’s here.” Yan Shunhua had changed into casual house clothes upstairs.
Su Wanwan quickly got up, grabbed her script, picked up her bag and followed her out.
A black Bentley was parked at the entrance of the villa.
The car door opened and a middle-aged man got out.
