"Sll it, is it fragrant?"
With that, Fu Sheng directly put her hand in front of Shan Mingxu’s nose, really without a hint of a girl’s restraint!
She stretched out suddenly, and Shan Mingxu couldn’t dodge in ti, so her hand accidentally hit his mouth.
Although it was an accidental bump, their relationship was already a bit ambiguous, making Shan Mingxu feel uneasy.
Fu Sheng retracted her hand, her cheeks instantly flushed.
Shan Mingxu cleared his throat, "Ahem! What’s fragrant? It slls like dicine."
Fu Sheng grinned.
Seeing her smile like that, Shan Mingxu still felt uncomfortable inside.
She was like a fool, always smiling so carefree, as if nothing in the world could make her frown.
"During this ti, just rest at ho, don’t worry about anything, and don’t think about anything."
"Your family is so nice..."
"Honestly, tell , do you really not rember where your ho is?"
"I’m an orphan."
"..."
Shan Mingxu felt a lump in his throat.
"If there’s anything else you want to know, I can tell you! Just ask, and I’ll tell you."
Fu Sheng’s bright smile still remained on her face, unchanged.
"Why didn’t you say it earlier?"
"When others ask, I don’t say it. But when you ask, I do."
"Have I never asked you before?"
Shan Mingxu frowned.
Fu Sheng shook her head, "No."
Shan Mingxu pressed his lips together, recalling that he indeed never asked her these questions directly. During her stay at the district hospital, he didn’t visit often, and whenever he did, he just checked on her condition before leaving.
The information about Fu Sheng willing to share was sothing he heard from others.
"The na Fu Sheng... who gave it to you?"
After a long pause, Shan Mingxu finally asked a question, and as soon as he did, he saw the woman’s smile freeze for an instant.
But she quickly raised her eyebrows and calmly said,
"A man."
"..." Shan Mingxu’s eyes narrowed.
Damn, why does this answer sound so annoying!
Imdiately, Shan Minglang’s tone turned unfriendly!
"Aren’t you an orphan!"
"Yes, that man is also an orphan."
Heh, both are orphans, so they can sympathize with each other!
"Where is that person?"
"I don’t know."
"How—"
How could you not know?
He wanted to ask that, but the words caught in his throat. Shan Mingxu ran a hand through his hair. Damn, why is he asking so much!
He’s only temporarily keeping her at ho, and once this task is over, he’ll send her away. He doesn’t plan to get entangled with her.
Taking a deep breath,
"You should rest well."
"You’re not going to keep asking?"
"I’m done asking."
"Then, where will you sleep tonight if I’m in your room?"
"I’ll bunk with Ming Lang."
"You could also bunk with , I don’t mind..."
Fu Sheng’s face turned red.
Shan Mingxu clenched his fists, "I warn you, stay obedient! While I’m not around, don’t go after other n! Especially Ming Lang!"
He thinks Fu Sheng not only lacks restraint but is a bit flirtatious.
He’s afraid that idiot Ming Lang might end up losing control—
But Fu Sheng quickly nodded earnestly at his words,
"Don’t worry, I won’t! Except for you, I won’t go after any other man!"
Shan Mingxu glared at her.
Fu Sheng hastily covered her face.
Covering her face... does this woman even have a sense of sha?
Shan Mingxu felt that if he stayed any longer, he’d really go crazy, so he quickly left the room!
Outside the door, Lin Xinhong leaned against the wall, snickering at him...
"Eavesdropping outside the door, can you be any more sleazy..."
Shan Mingxu looked at him with a disdainful expression.
Lin Xinhong put an arm around Shan Mingxu’s neck,
"Isn’t she beautiful?"
"What’s so beautiful about her?"
"Lin Xinhong, you really have no bottom line in being sleazy!"
Shoving his hand away, Shan Mingxu tidied his military uniform, then headed downstairs.
Shan Mingxu took a deep breath, his expression both arrogant and indifferent.
She is beautiful, really beautiful.
To Shan Mingxu, her beauty isn’t just in her looks but in places others haven’t noticed. Every gesture she made sparkles in his eyes...
Lin Xinhong did not expose Shan Mingxu’s little thoughts.
Though Shan Mingxu’s position in the army has little connection to him, there were plenty of rumors about Shan Mingxu since he enlisted.
Considering Lin Xinhong grew up with him, he occasionally cared about Shan Mingxu’s situation in the army.
This guy is still the sa as before, not putting anyone in his eyes, very self-centered.
For soone like Shan Mingxu, if he had absolutely no interest in a woman, it would be impossible for him to bring her ho.
In his own words, he only fights battles, not responsible for charity.
But didn’t Fu Sheng end up being brought ho by him? Isn’t she lying in his room?
Lin Xinhong hasn’t even solved his own issues, so he’s naturally not in the mood to tease Shan Mingxu...
Yin ng sat downstairs, chatting with Shan Minglang now and then, and when she saw them coming down, she stood up.
"Er Pang, when are you heading back?"
"About to leave now."
"Oh."
Lin Xinhong clenched his fist, mustered up the courage, "Could you see off?"
"Ah? ... Okay."
Yin ng felt uneasy inside, her reaction seed dazed.
Shan Mingxu gave a light chuckle.
Lin Xinhong ignored him and walked out of the room with Yin ng, one following the other, strolling down the shaded pathway of the estate ... both silent.
They walked all the way to the entrance; Lin Xinhong’s Humr was parked outside the gate.
"Drive slowly when you go back, I’ll just see you off to here—um!"
Before Yin ng could finish her sentence, Lin Xinhong turned around, pulled Yin ng into his arms, and fiercely kissed her!
The wind blew, stirring the budding spring on the trees leaning against the wall...
"I’ve liked you for many years! And I’ll keep liking you for many, many more years!"
"Xinhong..."
"Yin ng! It doesn’t matter if you reject ! I’ll still pursue you! I vow not to give up until I win you over in this lifeti!"
Yin ng stared blankly at the tall, handso figure in front of her, his military uniform fit and upright, exuding righteousness, with his thick brows and big eyes, except...his ears were completely red.
"You can’t go on blind dates with others!"
"...Okay."
"No other n can hold or kiss you!"
Yin ng looked at him, her mouth still tingling...
"I’m talking to you!"
"Okay."
"Just rember that! I’ll co look for you next week."
"...Alright."
"That’s it then, I’m leaving."
"Mm."
Lin Xinhong swallowed, cleared his throat, opened the car door, got in, turned the car around, and waved his hand out the window, signaling Yin ng to head back.
In the rearview mirror, Yin ng didn’t move, she kept watching him...
Lin Xinhong steadily drove a considerable distance, took a deep breath!
He began to sing,
"Betrayed my love! Forced to leave~ Finally knowing the truth made my tears fall down! Betrayed my——no, that’s wrong! Hand in hand, let’s walk together, lead a stable life~woo... Yesterday’s already too late, tomorrow might be a pity, today you’re marrying ~woo..."
"Hahahaha!"
Lin Xinhong sang madly all the way, dancing and gesturing, whistling one mont and imitating a pop star passionately the next, totally lost in his joy!
He knew, to Yin ng, this counted as acceptance.
Just this fact alone was enough to make him ecstatic!
————
The next day, Shan Mingxu also left ho, packed his bags, thinking he was leaving quietly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out the gate, Fu Sheng was standing there with a cane.
She furrowed her brows,
"Early morning, what are you doing here?"
"Seeing you off!" Fu Sheng smiled.
Ming Xu glanced at her lightly clad in a single layer, pursing his lips, "Alright, hurry back inside."
"I want to watch you leave."
Shan Mingxu grew impatient, his tone beca stern, commanding,
"Get back inside now—"
Fu Sheng stepped forward, supporting herself with one foot, dropped her cane, put her arms around his neck, and kissed his cheek,
"I’ll wait for you to return."
"..."
Shan Mingxu’s figure stretched further and further in the morning light, growing distant...
Fu Sheng held her cane, she just watched Shan Mingxu walk out of her sight, disappearing from her view...
Ming Xu... even his na is full of hope and sunshine.
He and she are truly two completely different kinds of people...
Fu Sheng understood in her heart that soone like Shan Mingxu would not be interested in her, and she...did not deserve soone like Shan Mingxu.
But, she was greedy.
Greedy for one more day, until she can’t be greedy anymore, then it ends.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-April, Yin Shixiu took Shuangshuang and Huanghuang back to London.
But this ti, accompanying them back to London was a sensational scandal.
—Yin Technology’s new product’s spokesperson, suspected of being the boss’s mistress!
—President Yin, Yin Shixiu, entering and exiting with rumored new love.
—Stunning fireworks, love bought with money, just for show?
Nowadays, information spreads globally in re instants, news in the country was overwhelmingly sweeping across major dia, many platforms, abroad naturally spreading quickly as well.
In the classroom of the University of Bath, the teacher was still on the podium teaching Xiao ng and the other trainees.
A few female students below had started discussing after seeing the news.
They didn’t know about the connection between Xiao ng and Yin Shixiu, rely discussing objectively, after all, Yin Shixiu had co to the school to give a lecture before.
Shen Dawei heard the gossiping girls next to him, couldn’t help but lean his head over and listen to their quiet whispers, eyes landing on the news headline on the phone screen—
"How is that possible!"
Shen Dawei suddenly exclaid, startling Su Xiaong who was focusing on taking notes beside him!
The teacher lecturing at the mont frowned,
"What happened?"
(What’s going on?)
Shen Dawei quickly said it was nothing, apologized, and let the teacher continue.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Su Xiaong privately asked Shen Dawei.
Shen Dawei was conflicted inside, her husband involved with a celebrity, caught by paparazzi entering and exiting together...
Should he tell her or not?
Just then, Su Xiaong’s phone lit up, it was a gossip group chat for girls, a few female classmates chatting, seemingly sothing explosive news!
Su Xiaong wasn’t too curious, glanced casually, and guessed the gist.
Probably another "good man" having an affair, right?
Such news has beco so commonplace now, won have grown accustod to it, no longer naively exclaiming "no longer believing in love" and the like...
