Chapter 51

Su He pushed the door open and hid the gift bag behind him. The sound of typing on the keyboard stopped. Sheng Jinyu pushed up the blue light blocking glasses on his nose and looked at him.

In Su He's impression, Sheng Jin and Qian Shao never dressed like this.

Her hair was parted in the middle and fell lazily on both sides. A few strands of hair were draped over her platinum-framed glasses, but there was no sense of alienation between her eyebrows.

He raised his hand towards Su He and curled his lips: "Didn't Sister Ling just say she wanted to make red bean paste for you? Why are you coming up here instead of waiting downstairs?"

Su He walked over and was about to speak, but Sheng Jin grabbed him with his long arms and pulled him into his arms.

He lost his balance and sat back on Sheng Jinyu's lap. He barely managed to avoid falling by holding onto the table. He was so scared that he held the bag in his hand tightly against his chest.

"I have something to give you." Su He thought awkwardly.

However, Sheng Jinyu's arm was placed on his waist very familiarly, with no intention of letting him go. Su He tried hard but failed to stand up.

"What?"

Sheng Jinyu had already noticed the gift bag in his hand. She poked her head over his shoulder and tapped the small box inside with two fingers. "This? Why does it look familiar..."

When Su He took out one of the small boxes, Sheng Jinyu had a bad feeling. He clearly remembered that he had seen this box not long ago.

"When I went to the second-hand store to buy something that day, I actually chose it for you. You are always nice to me, so I wanted to give you something." Su He said to himself.

etc……

Su He opened the jewelry box without saying a word, and the ugly brooch that looked like a patchwork rag appeared in front of him again, and Sheng Jin's pupils dilated.

Sheng Jinyu: “…”

After all this fuss, this thing was actually given to him?

What does it mean to shoot oneself in the foot?

"Do you like it?" Su He looked at him expectantly with watery eyes.

Sheng Jin laughed dryly twice, and said through gritted teeth, "I like it. It's a gift from Assistant Su, how could I not like it?"

Su He glanced at the forced smile in his eyes and the embarrassed expression, and he understood everything. No wonder he was so abnormal in the store that day, and no wonder he picked something that was not aesthetically pleasing.

"Did you think that day that I was going to give it to someone else?" Su He asked him quietly.

Sheng Jin felt a lump in his throat and coughed twice, "Am I that petty?"

You have!

Su He mercifully did not expose him, and took out a second small box from the bag and stuffed it into Sheng Jinyu's hand: "Then take a look at this."

Sheng Jinyu was stunned for a moment, then took it and opened it with one hand. A goldfish with golden and red colors intertwined was shining under the light. It turned out to be the goldfish collar pin that Su He had chosen himself!

Sheng Jinyu's eyes lit up, and he rested his chin on Su He's shoulder and rubbed it slightly, laughing softly, "Do you really like goldfish? It's not enough to just keep two, you also want to buy them for me and show them to me every day?"

Su He shrank his neck back because of the itch, and raised his hand to push his hairy head with a smile.

"Yeah, I love goldfish. They're so cute."

For some reason, Sheng Jinyu laughed after hearing this, and kissed and rubbed his neck again.

Su He was extremely ticklish and laughed so hard that he fell backwards on the table.

When I looked up, I met my own eyes on the computer screen...

Su He looked closely and saw that it was a video conference pop-up window! !

In one side of the camera, he was sitting in Sheng Jinyu's arms, and in the other side, a group of employees in suits were communicating in a large conference room.

!!!

Su He's heart skipped a beat at this moment. He had been inside for so long, wasn't that like a live broadcast?!

He shuddered suddenly, and the box in his hand fell onto the table with a clatter.

Feeling the person on his body stiffen, Sheng Jinyu followed his gaze and knew that Su He must be afraid that their office romance would be exposed, and his face was frozen with fear.

He raised his hand to push the computer away, rubbed the tip of Su He's ear with a malicious smile, and said, "What are you afraid of? I didn't turn on the camera."

Su He quickly turned around and stared at him with a little panic.

"Really? You didn't lie to me?"

"When does the leader need to turn on the camera during a meeting? I'm the one listening to their reports, not me giving the speeches." Sheng Jinyu said reasonably.

After listening to it, Su He felt that it made sense and felt a little relieved, but he still had some doubts.

He leaned over the computer and looked again and again, only then was he sure that the person on the other side really couldn't see or hear what was happening here.

"Are you relieved?" Sheng Jinyu casually put her arm around his waist and muttered, "How could I let others look at you so easily?"

This sounded strange, but Su He couldn't tell what was strange about it.

He felt a tingling sensation on his waist, and then he realized that he had been sitting on Sheng Jinyu for too long. His face turned red for no reason, and he quickly jumped up by holding the table.

"The food has been delivered. I'm going to eat some red bean paste. You can continue with your work!"

Before he could finish, Su He disappeared outside the door in a flash, and considerately closed the study door with a slam.

Sheng Jinyu couldn't help but chuckle, thinking about Su He's flustered little expression over and over again, then chuckled and shook his head.

It seems that relying on Su He's dull brain is really not enough. When will he finally come to his senses? If it was someone else I like, I'm afraid I would never have a chance in this life.

He is probably the only one who can tolerate this idiot.

The phone suddenly made a clang sound. It was a design drawing sent by Assistant Fang. Sheng Jin and Erzhi enlarged the design drawing and looked at the circles inlaid with gems on it. Then they flipped it over and saw the rendering of the ring.

The aquamarine gemstones surround the main diamond in the middle, like rolling waves. It must be very beautiful if worn on such fair fingers.

Sheng Jin looked at the phone screen with satisfaction. It was time to think about these things.

A few days later, the autumn atmosphere in Guangzhou became more intense, and the temperature dropped slightly. A batch of fresh and plump seasonal sea bass arrived in Xiaoxie Garden. Su He asked Sister Ling to pick the fattest one and make soup with it.

Two hours later, the fish soup was ready, and the whole kitchen was filled with the hot and delicious aroma.

Su He was so full after dinner that he only left one bowl for himself. He packed the rest in a soup bowl and asked the driver to send it to Sheng Jinyu.

He had been staying in the company these days, working non-stop. When the fish soup was delivered, Sheng Jinyu had just finished a shareholders' meeting. He felt uncomfortable all over and his stomach was empty.

The hot fish pond was placed on the table. Before he even ate it, Sheng Jinyu already had a smile on his face. Coincidentally, Su He's WeChat message came at the exact moment, asking him if he had eaten.

Sheng Jinyu opened the camera and took a 360-degree photo of the fish soup.

Special Assistant Fang was sorting documents nearby. The delicious aroma in the air was so tempting that he couldn't help but look in the direction of Sheng Jinyu. He couldn't see the fish soup clearly, but he saw his boss with a smug smile on his face and his eyebrows raised high.

It was as if this bowl of soup was some rare delicacy in the world that would not be exchanged for any amount of money.

Catching a glimpse of his gaze, Sheng Jin and Dafacibei waved their hands: "It's nothing, go home and have dinner."

Assistant Fang concealed his inner surprise, adjusted his glasses, and nodded. Just as he was about to slip away, he received a call. He walked aside and answered the call and said a few words, then came over with the phone: "Master, it's the manager of the Xuan family calling. It seems that Mr. Su has booked a table there."

Sheng Jinyu selected a few pictures and sent them to Su He. He was typing when he heard the words and took them over. He said lightly, "Go ahead."

Xuanjia is an old and high-end Chinese restaurant located in the east end of the city. The owner and Sheng Jin are old acquaintances. The manager opposite started to apologize as soon as he came up.

"Mr. Sheng, I'm so sorry. The staff below didn't know that Mr. Su was your assistant. It's Valentine's Day next week, and the store is busy, so we declined. I'm really sorry. It's our mistake to delay your trip."

"How about reserving your usual private room for next Saturday?"

Sheng Jinyu understood that Su He originally wanted to book a seat at Xuan's house, but because there were too many people during the festival, he failed to make a reservation. The manager thought that Su He had booked the seat for him, so he called to apologize.

What does Su He want to do by booking a table at Xuan's house?

And on Valentine's Day?

The manager over there was still trying his best to make up for his mistake, thinking that Sheng Jin and he were going to arrange a date on this day, so he was still introducing the special activities launched for Valentine's Day.

Sheng Jinyu began to lose focus as he listened, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the table. Su He hadn't told him that he had booked a table on Valentine's Day. Could it be that he was...

Confession?

The corners of his mouth slowly curled up, and he was a little glad that he had ordered the ring early. The finished product would arrive in a few days, and it would still be in time by then.

That night, after Sheng Jinyu returned to Xiaoxie Garden, he met Su He in the living room. He was wearing soft beige home clothes and was standing by the wall lamp in the living room playing with a cat toy with the kitten.

It was obvious that she was waiting for him to come back, because as soon as Sheng Jinyu stepped into the living room and the door was not closed, Su He ran over with a cat toy in his hand.

Xiao Sanhua followed him with her short legs, and accidentally fell because of his slippers.

It was probably almost dawn by then, the moon was as cold as water, and there was no one walking on the street.

Sheng Jin drove silently all the way through the darkness. When he opened the door and saw the dim light and a person running towards him with a smile, he suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart.

Like a prematurely ripened fruit, it is sweet yet sour, almost bringing tears to my eyes.

Su He kept asking him something, and finally asked casually if Sheng Jinyou had any plans for the next weekend. Sheng Jinyou immediately became alert.

Next weekend is the time for Su He to book a table at Xuan's house.

He was even more determined in his mind, and said no with a smug look on his face. Sheng Jinyu had an urge to make it clear in advance, but he suppressed it for a moment.

If the ring was not in his hand, he would probably take it out right now. He wanted to see Su He's surprised and excited smile.

Want urgently and impatiently.

Now I still feel that he booked it too late. If he had booked it earlier, he would have been able to take it out of his pocket today.
