Chapter 40 Happily Ever After: Wherever you go, I will go.
Chapter 40 Wherever you go, I will go.
The phoenix flower fell gently and hit the hard shell of the car roof.
Xu Shen, who had just got into the car, pulled the seat belt and saw Li Su kneeling on the backrest, looking at the blue rose in the back seat. He loosened the seat belt and looked back.
Li Su reached out and touched the petals of the blue rose. The soft and tender touch touched her heart.
She looked at the flower, then at Xu Shen, and said with a smile: "Let me test you, do you know what the flower language of the blue rose is?"
The kneeling posture made Li Su slightly taller than Xu Shen. She lowered her eyes and looked at him. The posture of superiority was particularly charming.
It's better to sit on my lap.
Xu Shen felt itchy, and his hands tightly grasped the steering wheel, rubbing up and down unconsciously. He licked his lips, and finally suppressed the evil thoughts before looking at Li Su.
Glancing at her, he raised his eyebrows slightly and answered confidently: "Miracles and impossible things, purity, staying together, you and me. - Teacher Li, do you know that blue roses are artificially made?"
"What do you mean?" Li Su fell down and sat on his legs. She turned around, swung her legs, and sat back just right.
The straight short skirt that reached her knees shrank towards her thighs as she moved. Li Su pulled the edge of the skirt down unnaturally, straightened it, and smoothed it.
Only her ears were a little red, and her face was serious, very dignified.
Xu Shen glared at her movements, and couldn't help but cross his hands together, palms facing up, covering his pants, and his thumbs circled each other anxiously.
"God will not let down those who work hard." Xu Shen tilted his head like her and shrugged his shoulders, saying, "Unless I die, we can't be separated."
"Pah." Li Su raised her eyebrows and slapped him in the face. It was still very light, but it made his heart tremble.
She corrected him and emphasized, "Can't we live a long life and live happily together?"
Xu Shen stopped moving his hands, clenched his fists, let the blood flow to his limbs again, and regained some rationality.
He smiled and nodded, agreeing, "Live happily together for a hundred years, live happily together for a hundred years, I like it."
Xu Shen buckled the seat belt again, and when he was about to pull the handbrake, he remembered to open the storage box on the center console and knocked it to remind Li Su to look.
"What is it?" Li Su leaned over, picked up one of the bundles of cards, and held it in front of her eyes.
It was half past eight, and it was dark everywhere. Xu Shen was afraid that Li Su couldn't see clearly, so he reached out and turned on the light above her head.
The gentle light shone down, and Li Su held the cards farther away and could see clearly.
"The gas card, car wash card, and some change for the express are all here." Xu Shen reached in and fished around. The coins slipped from his fingertips and fell back into the box, making a clanging sound.
Xu Shen reminded, "Just use the ones in here, okay? I'll come back every week and make up for it regularly."
"Every week?" Li Su looked at him in surprise, "But it's really far from Yangcheng to Beijing North. Wouldn't it be too tiring to travel so long? You..."
"How can I be tired to come and see you?" Xu Shen interrupted Li Su, speaking naturally and calmly. "And we have to see each other every week. Why don't we meet?"
Li Su felt sweet in her heart. She put the bundle of cards back in her hand and muttered, "I didn't expect you to be so clingy."
Xu Shen heard it, but pretended not to hear it. He looked outside the car, and the reflection on the car window was a man with a smile on his face.
The girl behind him raised her index fingers and tapped them randomly on her knees, her small movements full of sweet thoughts.
Xu Shen turned his head back and continued the previous topic. He reminded: "When I'm not in Yangcheng, you can help drive the car to prevent the equipment from aging. - Drive to and from work, okay? I've rented a parking space for you."
Isn't this too complete?
Li Su was stunned for a while, raised her hand to rub the tip of her nose, and nodded in understanding.
Uneasy again, she glanced at Xu Shen suspiciously and asked: "You bought a car, you didn't buy a house too?"
"No, I rented a house in Ersha Island." Xu Shen smiled and drew a direction in the air with his fingers.
He said, "I live on the first floor, and the second floor is for you. You know, I will definitely not go to the second floor without your permission, but you are welcome to come to the first floor."
"Ersha Island? It's very expensive, thank you daddy." Li Su subconsciously said something joking, but she regretted covering her mouth after she finished speaking, blaming herself for being too straightforward.
She turned her head and saw Xu Shen sideways glance at her, his eyes were strange and helpless.
Li Su couldn't help laughing.
Xu Shen couldn't help laughing when he saw her laughing, "You laugh so stupidly."
"You laugh like a pig." Li Su reached out and pushed Xu Shen's nose. His eyes were as bright as stars.
A pig is a pig. Xu Shen cooperated and hummed twice, and she was overjoyed again.
"Let's go." Xu Shen looked forward and said to Li Su, "Go back to Ersha Island? Go home and have hot pot."
"Okay." Li Su pulled the seat belt and buckled it around her.
The seat belt and bag straps overlapped in front of her, forming a cross restraint.
Li Su lowered her head and looked thoughtfully. She sorted out her bag, opened it, and took out the key to the rental house from it.
"You keep it." Li Su stretched out her hand and handed the key to Xu Shen, "Let's move things together tomorrow."
Xu Shen looked at Li Su's hand hanging in the air, the key chain swaying lightly on her wrist. The simple two keys, without any pendants, were simply not in line with Li Su's style.
But it was this uncharacteristically simple treatment that proved the temporary nature of this bunch of keys. She would return them anytime and anywhere.
Xu Shen reached out to take it and temporarily put it on the middle table.
"I'll find a moving company." Xu Shen's voice was very light, and he said lightly: "After all, it's Qi Ying's house, and I still have to consider his feelings."
"You're right." Li Su concealed her surprise, withdrew her hand, and closed the bag again for no reason. The smile on her lips faded a little. She couldn't help but look at Xu Shen again.
It turned out that he knew everything and had always known.
He didn't interfere because he trusted her. He did
n't ask because he trusted her.
"The new house has a fingerprint lock, in case you forget to bring the key and I can't get here in time," Xu Shen added, explaining, "We'll go back and record it later."
"Okay." Li Su's voice gradually became softer.
Noticing that Li Su's mood was getting low, Xu Shen turned his head, looked at her, and patted her head soothingly.
Li Su looked up at him, her eyes inquiring.
Xu Shen scratched his hair, and a rare feeling of shame appeared in his eyebrows. He slowly reflected, "Tell me the truth: Was I a little too sharp-tongued, too unkind, and too impulsive today?" "
Writer Li, I won't drag you down, will I? What if Qi Ying makes things difficult for you in the future? Can you still get promoted?"
At this point, Li Su became lively again. She straightened her chest, and her round chest stood out like a peak. She had a powerful momentum.
"I don't even want to say anything to you." Li Su was tactful enough not to make a fuss about Qi Ying's magnanimity. Instead, she targeted Xu Shen's temperament and reminded him verbally, "We are in the same circle. You respect me and I respect you. It's so nice to be in harmony. But what about you? You talk like you are cursing. Who wouldn't want to beat you up after hearing it?"
Li Su's tone was anxious, and it could be seen that Xu Shen still looked indifferent. She felt a sense of pain that the emperor was not anxious, but the eunuch was.
Li Su rolled her eyes and said deliberately: "I think that unless you wear black stockings in the future, I am Qi Ying and I will hate you! I hate you for being single, I hate you for not having a wife, and I hate you for not having a child."
"Pfft——" Xu Shen was overjoyed, "Wearing black stockings? Why doesn't it feel good?"
"It's not good to begin with." Li Su rolled her eyes at him and laughed too, and teased: "But you are very sincere."
"Can't we get to know each other without fighting?" Xu Shen reached out to shake Li Su's hand and followed suit: "But... there is indeed something I want to report to you."
"You tell me."
Xu Shen held Li Su's hand, stretched it to his lips, and kissed the back of her hand.
He negotiated: "I have studied your project at Qi Ying and it can make money. I want to invest some money in it. If you have no objection, I will go to your company with you on Monday, okay?"
It was a very natural introduction, but Li Su was not fooled by Xu Shen's logic.
Almost instantly, she thought of what Zhang Youqing had said to her two days ago: In order to protect her reputation, Xu Shen would most likely invest money in the project.
This way, it would be easier for him to teach Li Su, and it would also save him a lot of potential troubles in terms of reputation.
Li Su understood, but was a little embarrassed.
She glanced at Xu Shen, and instead of being hypocritical with him for these reasons, she took a different approach and asked, "How much can you earn?"
Xu Shen liked this kind of Li Su very much. Whether she understood or not, she was always not shy.
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows and joked, "Invest 30 million and earn 30 million. How about that?"
How about that? Li Su's eyes widened instantly, and her eyes seemed to be able to spit out fire. She announced loudly, "Capitalist! You are the lifelong thigh of my Li Family Army!"
Li Su excitedly held Xu Shen's hand, patted the back of his hand, and said enthusiastically, "Good guy, your life is my dream! 30 million, I didn't dare to think of winning so much when I bought the lottery!"
"Potential stock, scary, right?" Xu Shen teased himself, stretched out his hand again, took out a black card from his body, and handed it to Li Su: "Sorry, I was so busy winning the prize that I forgot to hand it in."
A pure black card, full of Xu Shen's entire worth, with his five years written on it.
It was the main card.
"Do you dare to take it?" Xu Shen handed some more to Li Su. "The password is your birthday."
"What's there to be afraid of?" Li Su quickly pulled it over, covered the card with both hands, and put it on her belly, "When I have a promising future, I will also apply for a card, and then I will give you mine."
The first place gets money, and the excellent award gets love. This is fair.
Although Li Su was uneasy, he was also trying to accept it with peace of mind.
"Thai pants are hot." Xu Shen cooperated and gave a thumbs up, praising: "It's worthy of you."
"..." Li Su looked at Xu Shen, she grinned exaggeratedly, her two round eyes slowly gathered together, forming a weird cross-eyed.
Bullshit compliments, damn love filter. This was her answer.
"Hahaha." Xu Shen couldn't help laughing.
"Laugh, laugh. Little guy, I can make you laugh all my life!" Li Su smiled proudly. She pushed him and said loudly: "Let's drive, go home, I'm really hungry."
"Okay." The car started and drove into the traffic along the road full of flowers.
The cold air in the car kept circulating on them.
The man said: "Yangcheng is humid and hot, even water is hot, it is not suitable for our physique, Li Su, when you are ready, let's leave here." The man said:
"Li Su, wherever you go, I will go. Don't be afraid, where I am, you have a home."
There was another song, lingering and melodious. It was a woman's voice, as always out of tune, but ethereal and rich, drilling straight into people's hearts.
"You understand me better than anyone else. The desire in my heart is more than what appears on the surface..."
