Play fast and fast, eat up the love brain in one bite

Chapter 221 90 Boss vs. Book-Traveling Tasker 9

"It's just a minor injury."

The wound was insignificant; he cared about other things.

His eyes wandered over her face, and his voice was filled with elusive meaning.

"Puppy love?"

He kept asking the same question over and over again.

Chun Nianren turned his face away, his voice muffled in his throat.

"No...you're not at home on your birthday. This gift isn't good. I'll change it."

Shen Zezhou chuckled, stood up and walked towards the bedside table.

He bent down, opened the drawer, took out a vintage pink velvet jewelry box, and returned to her.

Seeing that she still tilted her head stubbornly, he deliberately nudged her arm with the gift box.

Chun Nianren turned around and glared at him, her red eyes filled with watery arrogance, but it was really not intimidating at all.

"what?"

Shen Zezhou raised his chin slightly, motioning her to open it.

"Your eighteenth birthday present."

The anger on Chun Nianren's face faded slightly. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and took the gift box with a hum.

She had never had a birthday before.

When I first arrived at the Shen family, someone suggested celebrating on the same day as Shen Zezhou.

Shen Zezhou's birthday is on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival.

But Lin Pingjun disagreed.

Lin Pingjun said that birthdays cannot be taken lightly and must be celebrated properly.

So from that year on, her birthday was set on the 16th day of the first lunar month, a separate day after Shen Zezhou.

She gently lowered her eyelashes, and the velvet gift box in her hand exuded retro luxury, forming a sharp contrast with her ordinary gift box that contained her scarf.

Slowly opening it, a diamond crown lay quietly on the black velvet, emitting a cool glow in the darkness.

Hundreds of precisely cut small diamonds, like stars surrounding the moon, support the central 18-carat pink princess diamond.

Thinking that Shen Zezhou had everything he needed, she knitted the scarf herself.

In contrast at this moment, she hurriedly leaned over to grab the gift box he had thrown on the bed.

"This one won't work, let me change it..."

Just as her fingertips touched the lid of the box, Shen Zezhou stretched out his arm and easily circled her around the waist.

No matter how she struggled, it was in vain.

"Who taught you that giving something away should be taken back?"

Shen Zezhou chuckled as he saw her holding the gift box tightly in her arms, with one hand stretched out in the air to reach for the scarf box.

"Little money lover!"

Pressing her hand down, he pulled out the box hidden in her arms, opened it, took out the crown and a note, and threw the box aside.

Chun Nianren felt the weight of the crown falling on his head and immediately froze, not daring to move for fear of dropping something.

Shen Zezhou took a half step back, folded his arms and looked carefully.

He looked calm, said nothing, and showed no emotion.

The girl's black and smooth hair was adorned with a luxurious and dazzling crown. The diamonds had a beautiful brilliance, but it was still not as stunning as she was.

Chun Nianren couldn't see that she was wearing a crown, so she couldn't help but stretch out her fingertips and gently poke his arm.

“…Doesn’t it look good?”

Shen Zezhou's gaze was moved, and for a moment he almost revealed the unpredictable emotions in his eyes.

He handed her the note with his address and phone number, and suddenly reminded her of things to pay attention to after going abroad.

"It's not like home abroad. Take care of yourself. If you run into any trouble, you can ask him for help. Also, don't fall in love too early."

Chun Nianren opened his mouth.

Her choice of business was a prudent decision, based on the current era and the Shen family's conditions to make the best plan.

Coincidentally, she was an orphan in both of her lives. In her previous life, she entered the entertainment industry because of her beauty. She was used to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak, and struggled to carve out a path to stardom from the fingers of capital.

She wants to go into business in this life, which is somewhat influenced by her previous life.

If she chooses this path, the resources and connections of both the Shen and Lin families can provide her with great help.

Not enough.

She admitted that she had deep feelings for the Shen family, and even if she ended up achieving nothing in her career, the Shen family would provide her with generous conditions to support her throughout her life.

But in the future, Shen Zezhou will have a lover and a family, and part of the favor she enjoys in the Shen family now will definitely be transferred to another person in the future.

The Shen and Lin families are her relatives, but one day she will need to leave the Shen family on her own.

"Know it."

She wrinkled her nose, her wet black eyelashes drooped slightly, and suddenly a cold touch brushed across her cheek.

Shen Zezhou's thumb was suspended in the air, and the tip of his finger reflected the lights outside the window, refracting a bit of crystal.

"Why are you crying?"

I cried twice in one night.

His voice was hoarse, and he casually wiped the wetness on the sleeve of his ink-colored shirt, which immediately left a gradual mark.

"I do not……"

Her words of defense were interrupted by a sudden shaking of her head. She hurriedly held on to him, but felt his slender and slightly cold finger bones.

At some point, Shen Zezhou had already supported the crown base.

"Don't move."

He suddenly leaned closer, adjusted the angle of the crown, and his breath swept across the top of her head, and a little touched her forehead, giving her a slight itch.

Chun Nianren clenched his palms, and suddenly a cluster of fireworks exploded outside the small balcony, illuminating the night sky.

The two heartbeats faded away, as if they were her illusion.

The fire on the diamond crown reflected spots of light, swaying with her movements.

Shen Zezhou gazed at her in the dancing light and shadow.

"It looks presentable now."

In the reflection of the glass, the girl is youthful and beautiful, with a dazzling crown on her head. Her eyes are still red, but they make her eyes look particularly clear.

Another firework bloomed, and Shen Zezhou stood at the intersection of light and shadow, half of his face immersed in the warm color of the firework, and the other half hidden in the darkness.

There seemed to be a smile on the corner of his lips, but it also seemed not to be.

"scarf……"

Chun Nianren protested quietly and tried to get it back.

Shen Zezhou bent down to pick up the paper box that had been neglected for a long time and took out a neatly folded black scarf.

"How long have you been weaving?"

"Three months..."

Shen Zezhou stroked the rugged lines with his fingertips and suddenly chuckled.

“It took three months to weave something like this?”

Chun Nianren's voice became smaller and smaller.

"It's my first time learning, so I knitted it several times..."

Shen Zezhou suddenly wrapped the scarf around his neck.

The texture of pure cashmere sticks to the skin, with a faint mint scent, which is the scent of the hand cream that Chunnian people often use.

Chun Nianren looked at the pattern that he had painstakingly taken apart seven times to weave, and now it was horribly distorted around his slender neck.

"Let me help you tie it again..."

Such a noble person, wearing her crude hand-knitted scarf, Chunnianren herself couldn't force herself to say that it looked good, and burst into laughter.

The diamond crown swayed slightly with the movement, casting tiny spots of light on the wall, dotted with the shadows of the two people.

Shen Zezhou pushed her out, his voice carrying that familiar lazy and indifferent tone that she was familiar with.

"that's it."

Chun Nianren returned to her bedroom and looked down at the jewelry box, feeling as if she had forgotten something.

……

The day Chunnianren went abroad was a sunny and cloudless day.

Standing in the late spring south wind, there is a sense of sadness on the apron of Capital Airport.

Lin Pingjun complained to Sister Zhou with tears in her eyes.

"Why didn't you come back?"

The Shen family father and son were unable to return to Beijing. Shen Congshan was still in Jiang Province. As for Shen Zezhou, it was said that he was participating in a competition or exercise in the south.

Chun Nianren remembered what Shen Zezhou said when he gave her the birthday gift in advance. Perhaps he had known that he couldn't come to deliver it, so he gave those instructions early on.

She hugged Lin Pingjun comfortingly.

"Take care of yourself and don't worry about me."

Lin Pingjun's tears could no longer be stopped.

Even if everything is arranged properly, it is still a foreign country.

Lin Pingjun stroked her thin vest and felt that she was still the little girl who was led into the Shen Mansion by her hand.
