After breakfast, I still needed to get ready, and I was thinking of letting Su Shenglin leave first.
But he said he would wait for me and take me to work together.
"You've taken me there, but what am I going to do when I get home from get off work tonight? Take the subway?" I asked, blinking in confusion.
Su Shenglin said irritably, "Since I've already taken you there, why would I let you squeeze onto the subway to come back? Of course, I'll pick you up after get off work."
I was astonished.
He laughed and said, "As a man, isn't picking up and dropping off your girlfriend from get off work a basic requirement? Are your expectations of your boyfriend that low?"
I pressed my lips together, unable to reply.
Because I've never received this kind of treatment before, and I've been used to relying on myself for so many years.
Su Shenglin sensed something, walked over to me, and sighed with heartache: "Poor girl. Fortunately, you have me now."
I smiled faintly, and said somewhat pessimistically, "But I've gotten used to your meticulous care. What will I do without you in the future?"
Adapting to some things can be terrifying, just like the difficulty of going from luxury to frugality.
Having never experienced that feeling, there's no such thing as loss, nor any pain.
Once you've tasted that sweetness, the loss and pain you feel when you lose it are akin to quitting drugs.
Su Shenglin's smile suddenly froze, and he stared at me intently with deep eyes. After a long while, he solemnly and earnestly assured me, "No, it won't happen."
He paused, then solemnly declared, "I'm not someone who treats feelings lightly. Now that I've started, I have no intention of giving up halfway."
As I gazed into his sincere and profound eyes, a warm feeling welled up inside me.
I believe in his character.
However, many things in this world are beyond human control; otherwise, how could we say that falling in love is easy but staying together is difficult?
Besides, the gap between him and me is so huge.
These words were on the tip of my tongue, but I thought about them and held them back.
I immediately put on a smile and said, "Just kidding, don't take it so seriously. Sit down for a bit, I'll go and get ready."
"Um."
When I came out after getting ready, Su Shenglin was playing with my dog with a toy, and the two of us were having a great time.
I was worried that he would get impatient if he waited too long, but when he saw me come out, his smile didn't fade, and he reached out his hand to me: "Let's go."
I smiled and reached out my hand, interlocking our fingers, and we went out together.
He is truly full of admirable qualities; so far, I haven't found a single flaw.
Such a person is so good that I feel ashamed of myself.
After I changed my shoes in the entryway, I opened the door to go out, but he gently pulled me back by taking my other hand.
"Huh? What's wrong?" I asked, puzzled.
Su Shenglin raised an eyebrow slightly. "Miss Jiang, I sent you a lovingly prepared breakfast, and you didn't even offer any thanks?"
My mouth was slightly open, my eyes fixed on his lips.
this……
Before I could respond, he smiled slightly, lifted my chin with one hand, and kissed me.
His unique scent enveloped me like a gentle breeze, and I clutched his clothes helplessly, unconsciously twisting them tightly.
The room was quiet, with only our tender, lingering breaths.
Thankfully it was morning, and thankfully we were both rushing to work; otherwise, I don't dare imagine how that kiss would have ended.
When we parted reluctantly, he lowered his head and touched my forehead to his, and we both chuckled quietly.
I blushed furiously, and he wasn't much better off.
"Master Su's delivery of breakfast is just an excuse; he probably has ulterior motives," I teased shyly.
Su Shenglin laughed even more shamefully, "You saw through me."
"Woof—woof woof!" Suddenly, the ambiguous and romantic gossip was interrupted by the dog's barking. We were startled and turned around to see the myna bird standing in the living room, wagging its tail and barking at us.
I suddenly laughed and shrugged. "Even the myna bird can't stand it anymore, let's hurry up and leave."
Su Shenglin looked at the myna bird and said, "This is dog food for you, don't be shy."
"..." I was utterly speechless.
Su Shenglin dropped me off at the company building.
It was rush hour, and as soon as I got out of the car, I encountered several employees who greeted me politely, then looked at the black Audi A8 with curious eyes.
I felt annoyed and thought to myself that I should have gotten off the bus earlier and avoided this spot in front of the company.
But since I'd seen it, I didn't try to hide it. After greeting the employees, I looked down at the people in the car and said, "I'm off to work now, bye-bye."
"Wait for me to pick you up after get off work."
"good."
I turned around, my steps light and breezy as I walked in my high heels.
Although I have to go to court again tomorrow to fight a lawsuit, it doesn't affect my high spirits at all.
Perhaps this is the confidence that comes from finding the right person.
However, this joy did not last long.
As soon as I entered the company, Tang Xiue rushed up to me with a mop in hand. "Jiang Wan! I need to talk to you!"
Seeing her hostile look, my face immediately darkened. "Didn't you get a lesson from me the other day? You want to rebel again?"
She owes me money, so I gave her personal information to a professional debt collection company.
If she comes looking for trouble, I'll have the debt collection agency teach her a lesson.
She's been much more well-behaved lately.
I quickly left after saying that, and Tang Xiu'e followed me with a mop. "Jiang Wan, your father is sick in prison, very seriously, and needs money for medical treatment—"
I stopped abruptly and turned back to look at her coldly.
Tang Xiue continued, "You sold the company to Jiang Hailing, and your father has no source of income now. If I don't ask you for money, who else can I ask?"
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around me, I had no choice but to say, "Let's talk in my office."
After entering the office, I turned around and said bluntly, "You know very well how Jiang Haiyang has treated me all these years. Do you think I would give him money for medical treatment now?"
