Chapter 68 Fragrance
The next day, Shen Sangsang left the house, and it was the Shen family's driver who saw her out the door.
It was raining that day and everything was wet. The car stopped in front of a cafe.
Shen Sangsang got out of the car. The driver was going to go into the coffee shop with her, after all, it was raining today and the roads were wet.
But Shen Sangsang said to him: "Wait for me in the car."
The driver's eyes fell on her face, and she didn't say much to him. She turned and went into the cafe.
The whole coffee shop seemed to feel the dampness of the rainy day. Zhou Shiran sat at the table with his legs crossed, drinking from his coffee cup in a nonchalant manner.
Just as he was wondering whether he should leave, a slender figure appeared in his sight.
Zhou Shiran's gaze paused, and then his eyes moved upwards from the figure's feet to look at the man's face.
During this process, Zhou Shiran felt like it was a slow motion scene in a movie.
Until he saw an exceptionally delicate and pale face. Who was this?
Then, he looked at the man as a whole, feeling as if he had been hit by a bullet.
"Who are you?"
The person who appeared before him spoke very slowly and softly: "I am Xiaozhou's friend."
Zhou Shiran laughed. He thought to himself that there were so many people looking for him these days because of Chen Zhou. He didn't expect that people still cared about him even though he had been dead for so long.
He asked back, “So what?”
“So…” Shen Sangsang placed the umbrella in her hand next to the coffee table in front of him, and raindrops dripped down from the tip of the umbrella.
The raindrops were like water from a steep cliff, dripping lingeringly.
"Let's make a deal."
Zhou Shiran found this very interesting. He looked at her and said, "What kind of deal can you make with me?" There was a hint of disdain in his eyes. "You must have just graduated from college not long ago, right? What value can a fresh graduate have?"
In Zhou Shiran's opinion, the person who was doing business with him was not on the same level as him, so he didn't take her words seriously at all, and the contempt in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
Just as he was thinking this, the man suddenly asked, "What if I ask you to take my body?"
When Zhou Shiran heard this, the playful look on his face suddenly stopped.
He didn't even come back to his senses for a long time.
After a long while, his voice became a little stuck: "What are you talking about?"
But the person standing in front of him didn't seem to be joking. He said to him seriously, "As a recent college graduate, you should be of some value in this area."
Zhou Shiran finally became serious at this time. He looked her up and down again. Her appearance was the pure and innocent one he liked.
So, he really became interested: "What do you want?"
Yes, that's what she wants.
After all, she was the one who came to find him, so she must have something she wanted to gain from him.
This is worth her curiosity.
"Tell me about Shen Zhou's death."
Zhou Shiran's face changed again, this time, it became serious.
He said, "What a coincidence! You're not the first one to come to me these days, and both of you are asking the same question."
"Did Chen Zhou's father come to see you too?"
"certainly."
Zhou Shiran picked up the coffee cup on the table and took another sip of coffee.
Shen Sangsang asked, "What did you tell him?"
"That's the second question. If you want to know the second one, you'll have to make another deal. Think about it carefully."
"Is the answer to the first and second the same?"
Zhou Shiran's smile was like a snake sticking out its tongue, dangerous and ghostly: "It's different, of course it's different."
"I choose the second one."
Shen Sangsang thought for a long time and answered him with this sentence.
Logically speaking, she should choose the first one, after all, the first one is what she ultimately wants to know.
But now, she wanted to know what happened when Shen Jixing saw him, which made him give up investigating Xiaozhou's death in such a short time.
Zhou Shiran put his tongue against his teeth and said nonchalantly: "Your answer is unexpected."
"Just tell me the second answer."
She didn't waste time talking to him, nor did she dwell on the first question for a long time. What she needed most now was time.
Zhou Shiran looked at her for a long time, then took out something right under her nose.
Shen Sangsang's eyes fell on that thing. After a few seconds, she looked at him and asked, "What is this?"
"you guess."
"That's the second answer," she reminded him, that's what he should say.
Zhou Shiran thought she was very interesting, so he said, "This is something that Chen Zhou's father saw the other day."
"You didn't lie to me."
She didn't move for a moment, her face expressionless as she asked.
Zhou Shiran gradually relaxed as he leaned back in his chair. "If you don't believe me, you can ask him. However, I don't think he would want outsiders to see something like this."
He smiled wickedly, his smile full of seduction: "Take it back and see for yourself, you will understand clearly."
Shen Sangsang looked at the smile on his face, then she reached out and picked up the thing on the table.
She really didn't have time to waste with him here, so she picked up her things and turned to leave without even asking any questions.
At this moment, Zhou Shiran stood up from his chair and stood in front of her.
He was very close to her, and Shen Sangsang subconsciously stepped back.
In those few seconds, Zhou Shiran smelled a fragrance from her, a very fresh fragrance.
Like mountain gardenia?
Just as he was immersed in the fragrance and had no reaction for a moment, the person in front of him said in a cold voice: "Speak."
Her voice was like the cold water in a deep pool, instantly waking him up from the fragrance.
She is like a beautiful mystery.
Soon, Zhou Shiran said, "You haven't given me the thing you traded to me yet."
His eyes wandered over her face.
Shen Sangsang reported a string of numbers to him word by word.
Zhou Shiran wasn't a child, so he couldn't play house. So he said, "Are you teasing me?"
"You can try to fight."
After listening to her words, Zhou Shiran took out his cell phone, typed in the string of numbers she read out, and then he made the call.
In front of him was the vibration of a cell phone ringing.
Shen Sangsang took out her phone and held it in front of him: “I’ll contact you after I finish reading it.”
After she finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer and turned away from him.
Zhou Shiran stood there, and at that moment, her hair happened to be blown onto his face by a gust of wind.
Zhou Shiran could smell the scent of gardenia again, passing over his nose.
He closed his eyes and sipped the tea, thinking to himself, this tastes so delicious.
Then he opened his eyes and stared at the figure in front of him with lustful eyes.
