Here, silence lingered inside the Lincoln.
Shen Shuhe hasn't spoken since getting in the car.
She looked at the night scene passing by outside the window, pursed her lips and was lost in thought.
The manager's attitude towards the man just now kept replaying in his mind: humble, respectful, fearful and timid.
For a moment, she suddenly became curious about the man's identity.
Thinking of this, Shen Shuhe's sight slowly focused on the man's face reflected in the car window.
She tapped her fingers on her knees and tilted her head, her thoughts wandering a little.
Jin Yanzhou and Jasmine are from country Y. Could they be some kind of nobles?
Or some business tycoon?
After all, not many people have Jin Yanzhou's elegant and noble demeanor and captivating aura.
...
...
Shen Shuhe was thinking wildly and was amused by his own bizarre ideas.
The next second, he remembered that Jasmine was beside him and quickly covered his lips.
But as soon as he raised his eyes, his smiling gaze collided with a pair of gazes reflected in the car window.
Shen Shuhe was stunned for a moment, then mechanically turned his head to look at the man opposite him.
At some point he took out a can of beer from the small refrigerator, held it in one hand, and placed his other arm across the back of the chair, sitting in a heroic and lazy posture.
Under the warm light, the two people looked at each other frankly and directly, and could almost clearly see the reflection in each other's pupils.
Jin Yanzhou shook his wrist slightly, and the beer in the can made a slight sound. He raised his eyebrows and raised his hand holding the beer: "You want it?"
Shen Shuhe: “…”
Misunderstood again.
The two times he secretly looked at her today were discovered by the owner, and Shen Shuhe wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it immediately.
Perhaps it was the effect of her recent acting classes, she shook her head calmly and said no thanks.
Jin Yanzhou curled his lips slightly, brought the wine jar to his mouth and took a sip, while looking away.
Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Shen Shuhe let out a breath without leaving a trace.
She touched her chest feeling guilty and didn't notice that a meaningful gaze passed quietly across her face through the car window next to her.
Between the two adults, Jasmine held her chin and looked around.
Shui Lingling narrowed her eyes and smiled secretly with her hands covering her mouth.
…
We arrived at the restaurant half an hour later. Perhaps the man had made arrangements in advance, the dishes were served quickly.
When they were washing their hands, Shen Shuhe heard the man say, "Miss Shen, it's late today, so I asked someone to prepare the meal in advance. If it doesn't suit your taste, you can ask them to make something else."
Shen Shuhe glanced down and remembered Wen Yu's instructions to avoid certain foods recently.
There were several dishes on the table, both light and heavy, and it was obvious at first glance that they were specially prepared.
There were no dishes that were difficult for her to accept.
So she raised her eyes and smiled from the bottom of her heart: "Don't bother, these will do."
After saying this, fearing that people would think she was just being polite, Shen Shuhe added very seriously, "Really."
Jin Yanzhou laughed because of her serious tone. He put the towel aside and said, "Let's eat."
"Um."
As Shen Shuhe said this, he used his chopsticks to pick up the food for Jasmine first.
After several contacts, she found that Jasmine's taste was somewhat similar to hers.
For example, both of them like to eat tomatoes and rarely eat meat.
Sometimes I don’t like the roots of vegetables either.
Seeing the tomatoes on the plate, Jasmine smiled and picked some for Shen Shuhe: “Sister Shuhe, you eat too!”
"Okay, thank you Jasmine."
The two people took care of each other, and the meal was warm and harmonious.
So Jin Yanzhou, the only male at the table, leaned lazily against the back of his chair and drank alone, his eyes occasionally passing over the two people opposite him.
After seeing Jasmine's smile, he thought to himself, "What a heartless girl!" and shook his head helplessly.
Similarly, the man who had finished drinking two glasses of wine unexpectedly discovered that the two people opposite him, one big and one small, had almost eaten up all the tomatoes on the plate of side dishes.
Moreover, there were some vegetable roots left on the plate.
Seeing this, Jin Yanzhou put down his wine glass, crossed his legs and stared at the two people's plates.
The little girl has a problem. She only eats the leaves of vegetables and never touches the roots. She often says that the roots taste weird.
He and the two elders coaxed and persuaded her, but it was difficult to change her bad habits. In the end, he just gave in to her.
At least eat green leaves.
But I didn't expect that she also had such a special habit.
Jin Yanzhou tapped the table with his fingertips, looking at the two people talking opposite him, his eyes becoming increasingly deep.
An hour later, after finishing their meal, the group sent Chen Shuhe home first.
In the Lanting Yayuan garage, Chen Shuhe and Jasmine said goodbye reluctantly, and then watched the car leave.
She stood there and stretched, thinking about finding a place to rest next time and making it up to Jasmine.
…
No. 1 Dijing Mansion.
When Jin Yanzhou brought Moli into the living room, they saw a person lying on the sofa with his legs spread out.
Jasmine covered her lips and nose: "It smells so much like alcohol!"
Jin Yanzhou walked over silently and kicked his leg without any hesitation. Owen, half awake, thought that a thief had beaten him. He opened his eyes alertly and was about to curse when he met two pairs of disgusted eyes.
"You don't have a home?" Jin Yanzhou sat down aside and mocked him mercilessly.
"Yes, but it's boring to be alone. I might as well come and stay with you guys." Owen sat up and rubbed his hair. "There are plenty of rooms anyway."
As he spoke, Owen saw Jasmine and immediately opened his arms: "Baby Jasmine, come and hug me."
Jasmine quickly dodged when she heard that, pinching her nose and saying, "No, you stink."
Owen: “…”
He bent down and smelled it. The smell of perfume mixed with alcohol was indeed a bit unpleasant.
Owen pulled his collar and stood up: "I'll go wash up."
After saying that, he walked towards the spiral staircase.
Behind me, someone suddenly said, "Remember to pay the room fee."
Owen looked back with eyes wide open: "You are poisonous, Jin Yanzhou!"
The response he got was the man's cold back of his head.
Owen gritted his teeth, snorted, and stepped onto the stairs.
Fuck it!
A few minutes later, Owen came out in his bathrobe and met Jasmine who was going upstairs at the corner.
The little girl was throwing a Rubik's Cube in her hand with a relaxed and happy expression. It was obvious that something good had happened.
Owen felt itchy in his heart. What could make Jasmine so happy?
So I immediately walked over and said, "Jasmine, what happened tonight? Tell me so I can be happy."
Jasmine stopped when she heard the voice and turned to look over.
She thought about it, wondering whether to tell Uncle Owen.
After all, this is her little secret.
Seeing the little girl not speaking and biting her lip hesitantly, Owen was heartbroken.
"Jasmine, you're keeping secrets from me now! I'm so sad! I'm not your favorite uncle anymore!"
Owen pretended to be aggrieved and complained.
Jasmine: “…”
This guy is difficult to deal with, and he was drunk tonight.
After a long while of chirping, Jasmine couldn't stand it anymore, so she walked over and grabbed his sleeve: "Uncle Owen, stop yelling... I'm telling you something."
Owen laughed instantly: "Okay, okay."
Jasmine: “…”
So the two of them sat on the stairs and talked about Jasmine's little secret.
A few minutes later, Owen responded without any particular surprise.
He thought it was something serious, but it turned out that Jin Yanzhou and Shen Shuhe were chatting alone for a while.
Seeing how happy Jasmine was, he thought that they had kissed, or at least held hands.
At this moment, Owen shook his index finger at Jin Yanzhou in his heart.
No, that’s totally not possible!
"Uncle Owen, why do you have such an expression? Daddy spoke to Sister Shuhe so gently, he must have a good impression of Sister Shuhe. So, do you think he is about to fall in love with Sister Shuhe?!"
