Chapter 42 Jiang Shiyu on the blue grape martini bed was undoubtedly a suitable...
September marks the start of the new school term.
This semester has been much busier than usual, with Shen Cen basically running between Kyoto University and Guangyi High School every day. With the new version of "Huaxia Fengyun" about to be released, every department is giving it their all, and Shen Cen naturally doesn't dare to slack off either.
Therefore, the time spent being intimate with Jiang Shiyu before going to bed each day became a rare moment of relaxation for Shen Cen.
It must be said that Jiang Shiyu in bed is undoubtedly a qualified service provider. He always gives her the most exquisite caresses, puts her feelings first in everything, and repeatedly says "I love you" when she hooks her arms around his neck and breathes tenderly.
However, secretly logging into "Summer Echoes" while Jiang Shiyu takes a shower has become an essential part of Shen Cen's daily routine. Wen Jie teases her, calling her a time management master, saying she can have a man on her phone and a man in real life without missing a beat.
When the new dungeon was officially launched, it was already October. The leaves on the sycamore trees along the avenue were beginning to turn yellow, and the entire Jingjia area was tinged with autumn colors.
The development of the new dungeon, which spanned from summer to autumn, finally came to fruition, far exceeding expectations. Within a week of its release, it repeatedly topped the trending search lists on various platforms. The official account of the History Department of Peking University also collaborated with "Huaxia Fengyun," releasing several historical科普 (popular science) articles related to the game's storyline. The content was accessible and engaging, earning widespread praise across various platforms.
[This is amazing! Amazing! The game I play is collaborating with Kyoto University!]
[Please, I need a few more popular science articles! I really want to know who wrote them; I, someone who has never liked history, actually found them fascinating!]
...
Shen Cen scrolled through the comments under the science popularization posts with great interest, a smile unconsciously creeping onto her face. These science popularization posts were all created by her bit by bit over this period of time. To prevent netizens from finding them boring, Shen Cen put in a lot of effort and revised them countless times.
Jiang Shiyu naturally became the first reader of these popular science articles. Shen Cen was initially worried that Jiang Shiyu wouldn't be interested, but he was much more patient than she had imagined.
Jiang Shiyu would pull her into his arms, hold her on his lap, and read together. When they encountered obscure or difficult passages, he would discuss and revise them with her.
However, Jiang Shiyu wasn't just a free laborer. Every time he finished making changes, he would carry her back to the room and let her make up for all the lost time in bed.
[Professor Shen, you absolutely must come to our "China's Rise and Fall" project team's celebration banquet today!]
At the top of the screen, Li Qi's message popped up.
After replying to Li Qi, Shen Cen sent a message to Jiang Shiyu, whose contact was pinned to the top of her chat list, before logging out of WeChat: "I'll be back a little late today. I'm going straight to the celebration banquet for 'China's Rise to Power' after work."
Jiang Shiyu: [Okay, I'll pick you up after this is over.]
Shen Cen replied with a cute "OK" emoji and then exited the chat.

The temperature in Jingjia in October had already turned cool. When Shen Cen left the school gate, a cool breeze blew in through her knitted undershirt, and she couldn't help but sneeze, pulling her black woolen coat tighter around her.
It wasn't until she entered the restaurant that she started to feel warm, but perhaps because she had just been exposed to the cold wind, her abdomen still ached slightly.
When they entered the private room, almost everyone was already there. Shen Cen sat down next to Li Qi. This time, Guangyi's leadership didn't come in person; instead, Li Qi represented them.
Li Qi picked up his wine glass and stood up. He first gave a long speech of thanks, and then toasted everyone one by one. Shen Cen was not feeling well and did not intend to drink, but seeing everyone raising their glasses in agreement, he had no choice but to pick up his glass and take a sip.
"If there's not enough food, feel free to add more. The boss said this meal is on him."
Several people shouted "Long live the boss!" and someone joked that they should order all the main dishes on the menu and eat the boss into bankruptcy.
Li Qi chuckled and said to the man, "Is that all you've got? The boss can buy ten restaurants like this without batting an eye, it's like a drop of water for him. You think your few fancy dishes can bankrupt him?"
Shen Cen sat there quietly drinking her hot soup. When she heard them mention the so-called "boss," she became curious and whispered to Li Qi next to her, "Sister Li Qi, is this boss the president of Guangyi?"
Li Qi nodded, clinked glasses with Shen Cen, and replied, "Yes, you haven't met him yet, Teacher Shen, have you? Our boss is usually at the company, but he's very low-key and rarely shows his face. But you should be able to meet him later, Teacher Shen. He's very dedicated to 'China's Storm' and will personally attend our meetings later."
Shen Cen nodded thoughtfully. This CEO of Guangyi was truly mysterious. If anyone else had achieved such results, they would have been prominently featured in major magazines and news outlets long ago, but there was very little news about this CEO even online.
In the latter half of the meal, Shen Cen barely ate anything. Her abdominal pain became more and more pronounced, and she felt chills all over her body. She finally managed to wait until the meal ended.
Just then, Jiang Shiyu sent a message: "I've arrived. Walk twenty meters ahead from the door and you'll see the car."
It was much colder outside than inside, especially on autumn nights when the temperature difference between day and night was significant. As Shen Cen walked, he kept breathing warm air into his hands, and finally spotted Jiang Shiyu's black Maybach.
As soon as she got into the car, Jiang Shiyu noticed that something was wrong with her.
"What's wrong? You don't look well." Jiang Shiyu said, reaching out to touch Shen Cen's forehead. Shen Cen didn't have a fever, but his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Shen Cen hadn't expected Jiang Shiyu to be so attentive, since no one at the dinner table had noticed anything unusual about her. She paused for a moment before replying, "It's probably just because it's too cold today. I caught a chill, but it's nothing."
Jiang Shiyu didn't say anything. He took off his suit jacket and draped it over Shen Cen's shoulders, then turned on the car's air conditioning. The jacket still carried the residual warmth of the man's body, and a gentle warmth welled up in his heart, making him feel much more comfortable than before.
Fortunately, Jiang Shiyu arrived in time. If he had been any later, she would probably have felt even worse standing in the wind for a while.
etc……
Shen Cen suddenly remembered that she had originally planned to send Jiang Shiyu the address and time of the dinner party that night when she left school, but she had put it out of her mind because she was not feeling well at the time.
She opened her chat window with Jiang Shiyu and, sure enough, she hadn't told him the time and place of her dinner party that afternoon. So how did Jiang Shiyu know?
Shen Cen felt inexplicably panicked, and couldn't explain why.
"Jiang Shiyu".
"Hmm?" Jiang Shiyu turned around. "Are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Cen shook his head: "I didn't tell you where we were having dinner this afternoon, how did you know it was here?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shiyu visibly froze, but immediately realized what he meant: "Fool, I asked Fu Cheng."
His tone was relaxed and casual, so Shen Cen naturally didn't suspect anything.
Yes, Fu Cheng also frequently participates in the "Huaxia Fengyun" project team, so he must know about the dinner party.
After returning home, Jiang Shiyu told Shen Cen to take a hot bath first. When Shen Cen came out of the bath, there was already a bowl of steaming brown sugar water on the table.
"Finished drinking? Are you feeling any better?" When Jiang Shiyu came out, he saw that the brown sugar water on the table was empty.
"I feel much better, thanks."
"Don't say thank you." Jiang Shiyu gently flicked Shen Cen's nose and moved closer to her.
As the man's breathing drew closer, Shen Cen took a step back.
Although they haven't gone all the way yet, and any intimate actions are only fulfilled by Jiang Shiyu, her physical condition today clearly prevents her from doing such things.
"Jiang Shiyu, I..."
"I know." Jiang Shiyu simply lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips. "You're not feeling well today, so of course you should rest."
Shen Cen smiled at the man, then snuggled into his arms. Jiang Shiyu wrapped the blanket around her tighter and patted her back to lull her to sleep. Before long, Shen Cen drifted off to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Shen Cen woke up from a sharp, throbbing pain in her abdomen, only to find herself covered in a cold sweat. The abdominal pain grew increasingly intense, like being stabbed with a knife, and waves of nausea and vomiting washed over her, even causing her vision to distort and blur.
She clutched her stomach in pain and looked at Jiang Shiyu beside her. The man was fast asleep, his chin resting on her shoulder, his impeccably handsome face right in front of her.
She couldn't bear to wake him.
However, he once said that he hoped he could rely on him more.
After a long pause with his hand raised in mid-air, Shen Cen finally decided to wake Jiang Shiyu up.
“Jiang Shiyu…”
-
"I've had a CT scan; it's a cholecystitis flare-up."
The doctor adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, first looking at Shen Cen, then shifting his gaze to Jiang Shiyu: "Does she usually not like to eat breakfast?"
"Yes." Jiang Shiyu nodded.
"Young people these days often combine two meals into one and never eat breakfast on time. As a result, more and more of them are getting cholecystitis. You must pay attention to this in the future. You must eat breakfast on time. How can you function if your stomach is empty?"
The doctor gave serious instructions, and Jiang Shiyu listened obediently like a student who had made a mistake, nodding his head.
After leaving the consultation room, Shen Cen was helped back to her ward by Jiang Shiyu.
Thinking of Jiang Shiyu's series of reactions just now, she couldn't help but laugh: "It's clearly because I didn't eat breakfast that I acted like this, but just now it seemed like you were the one who made the mistake."
Jiang Shiyu rubbed the back of her head and said very seriously, "It's my fault for not taking good care of you."
Shen Cen wanted to say no, Jiang Shiyu always left breakfast for her on the table every morning, and she just didn't eat it, so how could she blame Jiang Shiyu? But seeing the tense expression on Jiang Shiyu's face, which showed he was really blaming himself, she felt that a promise might be more effective than a word of comfort at this moment.
"Jiang Shiyu, I will definitely eat breakfast properly from now on."
Sure enough, Jiang Shiyu's brows relaxed slightly: "Okay, from now on, tell me what you want to eat the day before, and I'll make it for you."
Shen Cen's illness wasn't too serious yet, and no gallstones had formed in her gallbladder, but Jiang Shiyu was still worried and wanted her to stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation, while he stayed by her side and handled his work online.
Jiang Shiyu seemed very busy today, spending the whole morning typing on his computer and his phone kept ringing.
Shen Cen wanted Jiang Shiyu to go deal with Si Ji's work first, as she could stay here alone, but Jiang Shiyu did not agree.
"Chen Cen." He would always call her by her name like this before getting down to business. "You'll always be my priority, you know? There's no job more important than taking care of you."
He can handle his work online, and even if it's much more troublesome, he would never leave Shen Cen alone here.
For him, Shen Cen will always be number one.
"Knock knock knock." A knocking sound suddenly came from outside the door.
"I'll go take a look." Jiang Shiyu got up and opened the door, only to see a middle-aged man walk in.
Shen Cen recognized this man; he used to follow Uncle Lu around, and now he's Lu Baichuan's assistant.

Author's Note: In contrast to the previous parts, Xiao Cen is finally willing to "rely" on President Jiang. [Exaggerated praise]
Also, you absolutely must eat a proper breakfast! Cholecystitis is incredibly painful [crying emoji]
