Shen Zhiyi's eyelashes trembled as she felt the breath of the person on her body rushing to her neck.

She gripped the sheets tightly, her cheeks flushed.

The pressure on the bed suddenly vanished.

The towering figure that had been so imposing just moments before suddenly retreated into the distance.

"What are you thinking about, Shizusuke?"

A mocking voice rang out above.

Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes and saw Pei Ji staring at her with a half-smile, holding her bag in his hand.

She blinked, looking confused.

He then realized that he had simply bent down to get his bag...

I'm overthinking it again...

Shen Zhiyi bit her lip, her face suddenly turning red.

He immediately stood up, "It's nothing!"

"I...I'm going to see what we're having for dinner tonight..." She rushed out in a panic.

As he passed Pei Ji, his arm was grabbed.

He suppressed the smile behind his eyes and turned to look at her. "We can't go empty-handed when we meet with our business partners tomorrow night. We need to bring a decent gift."

"Shall we go to the mall together and pick something out?"

"After it's over, we'll eat around there."

Shen Zhiyi was taken aback, remembering the information she had collected about potential partners, and her expression immediately turned serious.

Yes.

The business partner has a particular fondness for gold jewelry, so it's worth visiting a gold shop in the mall.

"good."

She nodded and took the bag from his hand.

"Then let's go quickly."

If she doesn't leave this place where the two of them are alone, she'll definitely get a fever.

*

Gold shop.

Shen Zhiyi was browsing through the display cases with her head down.

I saw a golden Pixiu bracelet surrounded by a ring of pure obsidian.

"How about this one?" she asked Pei Ji, looking up at him.

Tens of thousands of yuan.

For a partner of this size, it won't be too expensive.

It is respectable enough to show one's sincerity.

The sales clerk smiled and said, "Miss has excellent taste, but your boyfriend is very young and has a refined and elegant demeanor, so this one would be more suitable for him."

She took another bracelet out of the display case.

It is a design with two intertwined strands, with red and black cords interwoven on top, and two pairs of pendants of different sizes and several gold-plated carvings hanging down.

It has a very unique appearance.

"This is a custom-made model."

"Each style has only one piece; you can't buy it anywhere else."

"And," she winked, "you can also take them apart and make matching couple sets!"

She gestured, separating the two intertwined strands of the bracelet.

It became a delicate chain wrapped with red rope, and a relatively sturdier chain wrapped with black rope.

They really are a couple's set.

Shen Zhiyi blushed and quickly waved her hand.

"You've misunderstood, we're not..."

"Wrap it up," Pei Ji said casually, glancing at it. "Together with that golden Pixiu."

Shen Zhiyi stared at him blankly.

Why isn't he explaining?

"Okay~" The teller smiled meaningfully.

It turns out they were a young couple who hadn't yet officially announced their relationship.

She smiled and took off the bracelet.

Shen Zhiyi stared blankly at him.

Upon closer inspection, the bracelet actually looks even better.

The two pairs of plaques on top are also inlaid with small gemstones.

The more you savor it, the more flavorful it becomes.

No wonder Pei Ji likes it.

She glanced at the watch on Pei Ji's wrist; it was simple and cold, yet it concealed a sharp edge.

It is a very understated yet luxurious style.

Adding a string of gold jewelry would seem a bit out of place.

but……

Perhaps this is the boss's aesthetic sense.

Who doesn't love gold?

The sales clerk wrapped up the two bracelets and handed them to Pei Ji. "Sir, how would you like to pay?"

Shen Zhiyi silently took out her black card.

"I'll swipe my card here."

The sales clerk's smile froze.

He looked at Pei Ji.

Seeing him standing there calmly, showing no intention of paying the bill, and even with a smug expression on his face, I was struck by his composure.

Her pupils contracted rapidly.

After the initial shock, something intriguing emerged.

This man...

He was so assertive just now.

So he's just a kept man, isn't he?!

Looking into Shen Zhiyi's eyes again, all that remained was sympathy and regret.

Such an exceptionally beautiful woman... could actually be deceived both emotionally and financially.

Men are indeed more cunning than men.

The clerk maintained a fake smile, "Hehehe...Miss, this way please."

She watched with a look of regret as Shen Zhiyi swiped her card.

...

After shopping, Shen Zhiyi carried the jewelry and walked out of the jewelry store with Pei Ji.

After the two had dinner, Pei Ji bought some things that Shen Zhiyi needed before they returned to the hotel.

The door had just closed.

Shen Zhiyi felt a little uncomfortable again.

Pei Ji, on the other hand, seemed quite natural.

He helped Shen Zhiyi order a laundry and dryer service.

The clothes I just bought were washed and brought up quickly.

"Go take a shower first." He said calmly, his tone even. "I'll go to the study outside and go over the plan again."

"Let's go to the factory first thing tomorrow morning."

Seeing his expression, Shen Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

She stopped being coy.

He replied "okay" and took his clothes to the bathroom.

The sound of pattering water came from behind the wall.

Pei Ji leaned back in his study chair.

Listen quietly.

The light from the computer screen illuminated his features, revealing his deep and handsome face. Yet, the eyes hidden behind his glasses were darker than the night itself.

He stroked the couple's bracelet he had just unpacked.

A delicate women's bracelet, wrapped around his cold, jade-like index finger, was like a shackle, binding his last shred of reason.

He knew her body all too well.

No need to look.
