Chapter 258: Spending money is a fine tradition of the Shen family
The two looked at each other from a distance.
The sound of waves could be heard not far away.
A few seconds later, Xu Jialan raised the corner of her mouth, lifted the hem of her skirt, and ran quickly towards the man.
One footprint after another fell on the beach.
She seemed like a swallow returning to its nest, and she threw herself directly into Shen Xichuan's arms, hugging him.
"I love you too."
Came with her arms.
And her confession.
Shen Xichuan leaned over slightly, holding her in his arms, with a beautiful curve at the corner of his mouth.
…
night.
Shen Xichuan asked the staff for a small basket and filled it with the shells picked up by Xu Jialan.
He casually carried the basket, his other hand around Xu Jialan's waist, and asked her, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Xu Jialan tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Hot pot?"
Now that she mentioned it, it seemed like she hadn't eaten hotpot for quite a while.
The man nodded and didn't object. "Okay, I'll have someone prepare it."
"OK."
Xu Jialan was very relieved and didn't ask any more questions.
After returning to the villa, she took the basket from the man and sat on the terrace, picking shells leisurely.
Shen Xichuan looked at her for a while, then turned back to the kitchen.
When he came back, he was holding a pot of scented tea.
Rose petals are swaying in the transparent teapot.
He put down the teapot, poured her a cup of scented tea, and said softly, "Take your time to play. I'll go prepare dinner."
Xu Jialan looked up at him and nodded obediently, "Okay."
Shen Xichuan couldn’t help but rubbed her hair before leaving.
Not long after, the doorbell rang.
Faint footsteps could be heard.
There was also the voice of Shen Xichuan speaking.
The distance was a bit far, and Xu Jialan couldn't hear clearly.
She was rocking the rocking chair slightly as she felt the evening breeze, holding the shells that she and Shen Xichuan had picked up one by one from the beach.
There are many varieties of shells.
Even the colors are varied.
When Xu Jialan saw it, he thought that this thing could be put together with the thousand paper cranes to make a decoration.
Like wind chimes or something.
It should look nice at home.
As she picked, she soon smelled the fragrance.
The smell came from the kitchen.
Seeing this, Xu Jialan stood up and walked over.
In the open kitchen, Shen Xichuan was wearing an apron and holding a spoon in his hand, as if stirring something.
As soon as Xu Jialan got closer, he saw the soup base in the pot.
The soup base is milky white with mushrooms and wolfberries floating on top.
No peppers to be seen.
On the dining table outside were two valuable crystal glasses.
What’s inside…is actually the very down-to-earth pearl milk tea.
Xu Jialan's gaze lingered on the man's back for a few seconds, and he chuckled silently.
She rested her chin on one hand and looked at him, "Actually, you could make one with a chili sauce."
Let someone who loves spicy food eat a clear soup pot.
This is a bit embarrassing for others.
When Shen Xichuan heard her voice, he turned around and glanced at her, “No, eating chili peppers all the time is bad for your health.”
"Really? How come I didn't know?"
The man nodded seriously and said, "Yes."
Xu Jialan pursed his lips and tried to suppress his laughter.
Okay.
If he says yes, then that's it.
The vegetables and meat were prepared by the resort staff.
Shen Xichuan just prepared a pot base.
After the base of the pot is cooked, you can start eating.
The two sat down facing each other at the dining table.
Shen Xichuan skillfully put her favorite ingredients into the pot.
Xu Jialan couldn't help but pick up the crystal cup beside him and took a sip of pearl milk tea.
Some brown sugar pearls are mixed into the mellow and fragrant milk tea.
Sweet but not greasy, the glutinous taste makes you want to eat one bite after another.
After taking a few sips, she held back and stopped drinking.
"You always use crystal cups for bubble tea. Isn't that a bit of an overkill?"
She had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Shen Xichuan glanced at the cup that reflected beautiful light under the light, and said casually, "Aren't they all cups? Does the material matter?"
Xu Jialan blinked.
It seems... that's not wrong.
“But it’s expensive.”
Shen Xichuan stopped what he was doing, “Do you like it then?”
Xu Jialan lowered his eyes to glance at the cup in his hand and nodded, "I like it."
Which girl wouldn't be interested in something this shiny?
Naturally, she was no exception.
Shen Xichuan chuckled, “Since you like it, then it is valuable.”
Hearing this, Xu Jialan was silent for a few seconds.
For him, he just wanted to give her the best within his ability.
Whether it is a crystal cup or an ordinary cup, there is no difference in his eyes.
Only what she likes is given value.
If she doesn't like it, then it's worthless.
The value is not simply determined by the material of the cup itself.
The corners of Xu Jialan's mouth curved up.
She bit the straw and took another sip of milk tea before she said slowly, "If Ning Ning were here, she would definitely say you're a spendthrift."
It was the same when I got married before.
Which groom would give out a gold card worth nearly eight figures when picking up the bride?
Even if it's your own family property, you shouldn't squander it like this.
Shen Xichuan scooped up the freshly cooked beef and put it in her bowl.
I just happened to hear what she said.
He raised his eyes, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "What she may not know is that the biggest loser is not me, but my eldest brother."
Xu Jialan: “?”
She looked puzzled, "Is Big Brother a spendthrift?"
Shen Xichuan laughed mercilessly, “He almost lost his girlfriend, how else can he get her back except by ruining the family?”
It’s not that Shen Yankai wants to show off his wealth.
But, he is a man who has only known how to expand the family business and has no one of the opposite sex around him.
In this situation, he really had no choice but to spend money to find someone to pursue the person.
Only Shen Xichuan knew it.
Those planning teams submitted at least a dozen planning proposals to the president's office of Shen Group.
Just hiring this team would cost at least six figures.
Not to mention how much money it would cost to implement the planned pursuit plan.
Hearing this, Xu Jialan also fell silent.
So, squandering money is a fine tradition of the Shen family?
