Chapter 474 But all I want is you

Shen Xin hung up the phone and carried the drunken Wen Youyou out.

In the afternoon, she personally delivered the assignment to his office for him to check.

When evening came, she knew he was free, so she insisted on taking him out for a big meal, specifically to the popular restaurant Yan Jin, which used to be called MISS.KK but has now been changed to MISS.Tang.

The interior design has completely changed, and the Bird of Paradise is gone.

A dreamy style reminiscent of stars and the sea, decorated with the most expensive crystals, and featuring a movie gallery filled with stills of Tang Xiaoya from her films—this is her private space.

Everything exists because of her; all the people who come to check in are her fans, and the restaurant's business is booming even more than before.

Seeing that she had done her homework diligently today, and unable to resist her pleading, Shen Xin went with her.

The girl was overjoyed when she entered the restaurant and took dozens of photos in surprise. Later, he took her to a private room.

After ordering a large meal of delicious food, Wen Youyou posted it on social media and started eating right away. Within an hour, she had devoured everything on the table.

Shen Xin's eyes changed. "Are you a pig? You eat so much, who will be able to support you in the future?"

Wen Youyou wasn't embarrassed at all.

"I noticed you don't have much of an appetite. If I don't eat, it would be a waste."

She picked up a napkin and slowly wiped her mouth.

After spending six months together, she was no longer afraid of him.

Shen Xin is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She is usually fierce and strict with her, but she will never really punish her.

This older brother is not bad; she is becoming increasingly dependent on him.

Shen Xin's phone rang. He glanced at it and said to her, "Stay here and wait for me."

Then he took the phone and left.

The waiter came over to refill her tea, and Wen Youyou suddenly pointed to Shen Xin's barely touched glass of red wine and asked,

"Is that wine expensive? I'll have a little bit too."

Hearing that red wine has a low alcohol content, she could try a little bit.

"This is Mr. Shen's personal collection of Petrus, a glass of which costs about 100,000."

Wen Youyou's eyes lit up. It must taste really good for such an expensive drink.

She picked it up and took a small sip. It wasn't spicy, and it tasted alright.

She couldn't resist and drank it all in one gulp, then poured herself another glass.

Finally, she put down her wine glass.

Then we went to see Sister Xiaoya's film and television corridor, and the more we walked, the hotter it felt.

Finally, she sat on the soft sofa in the corner, motionless, one hand supporting her head, her eyes closed.

After Shen Xin returned, he searched around for a long time before finally finding her.

She was already asleep, snoring, her face flushed an unnatural red.

He patted her, and Wen Youyou struggled to open her eyes, murmuring, "It's dawn. I don't have to go to school today. Let me sleep a little longer."

Shen Xin approached her and smelled the alcohol in her breath, realizing that she had been drinking.

"Wen Youyou, you've gotten quite bold, daring to steal wine now?"

He tried to lift her up with his large hand, but her small hands wrapped around his strong, lean waist.

The soft touch against his chest made Shen Xin's heart skip a beat.

He tried to push her away, but the little girl pouted and said, "Brother, don't be angry, my head is spinning..."

Shen Xin was momentarily speechless; this little girl was definitely his nemesis.

He picked her up and carried her outside. Wen Youyou opened her eyes and saw that the corridor was full of photos of her older sister, Xiaoya.

She pouted and murmured, "I'm going to Ancheng to find Sister Xiaoya..."

Last night, her brother suddenly sent her a message telling her that Xiaoya was preparing to return to Ancheng to settle down.

This is a smokescreen released by Lu Qinglin.

Shen Xin was startled.

When I got home, I called Yan Jin.

He took Wen Youyou back to his private apartment. If he took her back to the Shen residence, it would definitely worry the two elders, and he would be the one punished in the end.

He put her in the second bedroom, then cooked a hangover soup and fed it to her.

Wen Youyou held his hand, not letting him leave.

Finally, Shen Xin found a vase for her to hug, and she obediently fell asleep.

...

The next day.

It wasn't fully light yet.

With renewed hope, Yan Jin boarded a private plane bound for Ancheng, hoping that Xiaoya would truly be there.

However, he searched the entire city of Ancheng. He went to the snack street they had walked together and the cliffside restaurant where they had their dates.

There was no trace of her.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the entire sea.

He was wearing a high-quality black coat, which made his figure appear even taller and more slender, with his jawline taut.

His eyes conveyed helplessness and despair.

Every inch of this space is filled with memories of her, deeply piercing his heart.

In the end, he returned home disappointed once again.

Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve, and the city is filled with festive red decorations and bustling crowds.

Yan Jin did not return to Qingcheng, nor did she return to her old residence in Luocheng. Instead, she went to Haicheng.

He went to the place where he and Tang Xiaoya first made their vows.

A resort hotel under the name of Fanxing.

Brilliant fireworks were bursting in the sky with a "bang".

One after another, magnificent and vibrant.

He stood on the rooftop, leaning against the corner where he had once held her and hidden away. He leaned against the cold wall and lit a cigarette.

There was a slight tremor in my fingertips.

He remembered that night.

He asked her.

"Are you an adult?"

She straightened her slender back and met his gaze without flinching.

"I'm 22, Mr. Yan."

He twitched the corner of his mouth, a hint of amusement and malice in his expression.

"Want to sleep with me?"

"Whether she's a virgin or not, I don't sleep with inexperienced women."

He said even more harsh and offensive things.

But then she suddenly laughed.

That smile contained self-deprecation, but also a fearless acceptance.

"Mr. Yan, I'm not a virgin, I'm very open-minded, and besides, I'm pretty good at it."

Then she jumped on him and kissed him.

...

Yan Jin took a deep drag on his cigarette, which made his chest feel tight.

He exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.

As the smoke cleared, his eyes were terribly red.

He finally understood.

What is the taste of lovesickness that gnaws at your bones?

The feeling of missing someone so much that your insides feel tangled and your bones ache.

In Sunshine City, Tang Xiaoya returned, having moved to a different place.

At that moment, she was holding Tang Xin, snuggled up on the sofa watching TV.

She opened an exquisite gift box and took out a golden longevity lock with two small bells hanging from it from the velvet lining.

The small lock is exquisitely designed, with a sparkling diamond set in the center and the words "Tang Xin" neatly engraved on the back.

She lowered her head and gently put the small lock around Tang Xin's neck, then kissed the baby's soft cheeks.

"Xinxin, do you like it? This is a gift from your Aunt Youyou."

Tang Xin grabbed it with her small hand, making a crisp sound.

Outside the window, dazzling fireworks exploded with a "bang," blooming into huge flowers in the night sky.

Tang Xiaoya carried the child and slowly walked to the balcony.

She looked up at the fireworks, but her mind was filled with memories she couldn't shake off, and that handsome face etched in her heart.

Her eyes were very red.

It turns out that some memories really do take a lifetime to clear.

It really hurts!

The phone rang abruptly, breaking the somber mood.

It's Wen Youyou.

"Sister Xiaoya, today is my birthday, I'm eighteen!" The voice on the other end of the phone was full of youthful joy.

Tang Xiaoya tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile.

Celebrating a birthday on New Year's Eve is quite special.

Happy birthday. From tomorrow on, you will be a real adult. I hope you have a brilliant and fulfilling life.

"The Shen family threw a super grand birthday party for me, I wish you were here." Wen Youyou's tone was a little coquettish. "Sister Xiaoya, I miss you and Xinxin so much, when are you coming back?"

Tang Xiaoya paused for a moment.

"When you get into university."

"It's a promise, no lying!"

"Um."

There was a knock on the door on the other end of the phone. Wen Youyou hurriedly said a few words and then hung up.

Shen Li pushed open the door and came in, holding a flowing, ethereal dress in her hand.

"Youyou, hurry up and change your clothes! I'll do your makeup and hair!"

Wen Youyou stared at the gorgeous dress, a little speechless. "Sister Li, isn't this a bit too extravagant?"

Shen Li was amused by her, "This is your coming-of-age ceremony, you have to be the most dazzling one here! Back then, when my brother held my coming-of-age ceremony, he booked the biggest banquet hall in Fanxing and invited all my classmates, that was really extravagant."

In no time, Wen Youyou changed completely.

Shen Li took her arm and they went downstairs together.

In the living room, Shen's parents, Shen Xin, and some relatives and friends were all present, and even Wen Yifan made a special trip over.

All eyes instantly focused on Wen Youyou.

Shen Xin's eyes were filled with amazement.

Is this bright and beautiful girl in front of me Wen Youyou?

Was it the "little black ox" that he brought back from the Nan family?

Absolutely not.

The girl in front of me had skin so white it glowed, and her features were so exquisite that there wasn't a single flaw. She was as beautiful as a porcelain doll.

People presented her with gifts.

Wen Yifan gave her a custom-made fountain pen, which had a profound meaning.

Shen Xin gave him a valuable double-sided watch.

Wen Youyou opened the box, took it out, and held it out in front of him, looking at him with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Put it on for me."

Shen Xin took the watch, lowered his eyes, and used his slender fingers to hold her wrist, personally helping her put it on.

At the banquet, Wen Youyou insisted on drinking.

Mother Shen smiled and agreed, after all, he was an adult and a little bit of alcohol wouldn't hurt.

As it turned out, she had clearly overestimated her alcohol tolerance.

By the end of the banquet, Wen Youyou was completely drunk and unconscious.

Shen's father said to Shen Xin, "Xin, take Youyou upstairs to rest."

Shen Xin nodded, bent down, picked her up horizontally, and steadily walked upstairs.

He carefully placed her on the soft bed, and before he could even stand up straight, a pair of slender arms wrapped around his neck.

Wen Youyou opened her hazy eyes and looked at him, half-asleep.

"Let go, sleep well." Shen Xin's voice was cold.

Wen Youyou didn't let go; instead, she tightened her grip even more, staring intently at his face.

"Brother, you are so handsome."

Shen Xin was stunned.

That brat, even when she's drunk, she still tries to flirt.

He reached out to pry her hands off his neck, but she suddenly exerted force and sprang off the bed.

Shen Xin's voice was icy. "What are you going to do? Lie down."

Even when drunk, he's still so restless.

"I want a present, my coming-of-age present." She pouted, her tone full of coquettish charm.

Shen Xin tapped the watch on her wrist. "Didn't I give this to you?"

"But all I want is you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she leaned forward and kissed his lips, even awkwardly and clumsily biting them.

Shen Xin was completely stunned. He pushed her away, turned around, and strode out...

Damn it!

That brat actually dared to have feelings for him!
