In the novel, Shen Yanqing's father, Shen Huaishan, was once drugged and plotted against by a woman, who later secretly gave birth to a boy behind his back.
Because of his extreme hatred for that woman, Shen Huaishan never visited the child even once after the child was born.
The child had been living a life of constant displacement with his mother since he was a child, until he was 14 years old when his mother committed suicide, and he was then taken back and raised by the Shen family.
Even after being taken back to the Shen family, Shen Huaishan didn't have much affection for the child. Apart from providing some financial assistance, he basically let the child fend for himself.
"Weiwei."
Shen Yanqing's displeased voice interrupted her thoughts, and Gu Baiwei came back to her senses, hurriedly replying, "Mm."
"Be good, remember to stay away from Shen Xuan. He's not as simple as he seems."
As they spoke, Shen Yanqing lifted her fair and delicate chin with his slender fingers, and as Gu Baiwei's heart began to race, Shen Yanqing lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.
Gu Baiwei was startled and looked around nervously until she found that there was no one around. Only then did her tense heart relax.
Just when she thought it was over, Shen Yanqing's soft lips suddenly landed on her delicate nose again, followed by her cherry-like, plump lips.
A brief, fleeting kiss caused both of their hearts to race instantly.
Shen Yanqing stretched out his long arm and pulled the little woman into his arms, his forehead gently touching hers, their breaths mingling.
The thought of leaving soon filled him with a feeling of reluctance for the first time.
He lowered his eyes slightly, his deep gaze falling on the small face flushed with shyness, and he felt an unprecedented tenderness in a certain part of his heart.
My gaze drifted down, and my fingertips followed my gaze, tracing over her soft, pink lips.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice was hoarse: "Weiwei, respond to me."
The moment he finished speaking, his crimson lips pressed against hers again, their lips intertwining tightly.
Gu Baiwei awkwardly and shyly entangled with him, feeling as if the air in her chest was about to be sucked away.
He reached out to push the person away, but found that his hands and feet had become weak and powerless.
"Weiwei, concentrate."
Between breaths, Shen Yanqing's deep, magnetic voice rang in my ears, like a bewitching male enchantress, making me uncontrollably want to do as he said.
For a moment, apart from the rustling of leaves, all that could be heard was their increasingly heavy breathing.
Just as the two were deeply engrossed in their kiss, Shen Xuan's voice suddenly came from not far away: "Sister, it's almost our turn to film our scenes."
Whether it was intentional or not, his voice seemed unusually loud.
The sudden sound startled Gu Baiwei. In her panic, she accidentally bit Shen Yanqing's lower lip.
The metallic, sweet taste of iron instantly filled their mouths. Gu Baiwei quickly took a step back, lowering her head in embarrassment: "Yan Qing, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Who would have thought that a simple kiss could result in her biting someone? This is just too embarrassing.
Shen Yanqing gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with his long, slender, fair fingers, then licked his blood-stained fingers against his own lips in an ambiguous gesture: "It's okay, I'm happy. If you want to bite, I'll let you bite somewhere else next time..."
One sentence almost made Gu Baiwei bite her tongue. She seriously suspected that Shen Yanqing was making inappropriate advances, but she had no evidence.
Moreover, the man's face remained completely serious, showing no resemblance to his earlier lewd remarks.
"I have to get to work now, I'm leaving first."
She hurriedly said something to Shen Yanqing and fled from the spot as if escaping.
They had only taken two steps when they noticed Shen Xuan standing not far away, watching them with a cold and indifferent gaze, at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
Gu Baiwei suddenly felt a little guilty. At this distance, she wondered if Shen Xuan had seen her kissing Shen Yanqing just now.
Standing behind her, Shen Yanqing ran her fingers across her lips, gently caressing them, as if the soft, sweet touch from before still lingered on her lips.
He raised his head, his deep gaze meeting Shen Xuan's across the distance, a cold smile playing on his lips, before looking away as if he disdained to glance at him again.
In fact, he had noticed Shen Xuan long ago. Just now, he deliberately asserted his ownership over him, telling him not to covet things that did not belong to him.
From the moment Shen Xuan and Gu Baiwei appeared together, Shen Yanqing keenly noticed that the way he looked at Gu Baiwei was full of a man's possessiveness towards a woman, which is why she deliberately let him see them together.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips. What he wanted to give, he could take away; what he didn't want to give, he couldn't take away even if he tried.
When Shen Xuan's gaze briefly met Shen Yanqing's, he pursed his lips, his handsome face turning gloomy.
At this moment, Gu Baiwei had already walked up to him, and the gloom on Shen Xuan's face instantly disappeared, replaced by his usual gentle smile.
"Sister, I just bought you breakfast. I don't know if you'll like it. Let's eat as we walk."
As he spoke, he handed the eight-treasure porridge and steamed buns to Gu Baiwei, smiling as he said, "I've heard that the buns at this place are pretty good."
Before Gu Baiwei could even reach out to take it, Datou ran up breathlessly and shoved a huge paper bag into her hands: "Miss Gu, the boss just told me to buy breakfast. I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I bought a little bit of everything."
The paper bag was open, revealing a variety of breakfast items inside, including soy milk, fried dough sticks, porridge, steamed buns, sandwiches, coffee, milk, and more.
Judging from this, they probably bought breakfast from all the nearby breakfast shops.
Gu Baiwei's lips twitched involuntarily. There was so much food; she couldn't finish it even if she ate for a week.
Big Head grinned foolishly at her: "Miss Gu, I need to drive the boss home, so I'll be going now."
After saying that, he waved to her casually, turned around and got into the black Maybach.
Gu Baiwei could only wave back at him and say, "Goodbye."
Shen Yanqing's exquisite and handsome face appeared from the rear window, and he waved to her as well: "Call me anytime if you need anything."
The black Maybach drove away quickly, leaving Gu Baiwei standing there, holding a huge paper bag with some worry. How was she going to deal with so much food?
Only then did she remember Shen Xuan standing beside her, and said with a smile, "I already have breakfast, thank you."
"Sister Weiwei, why did you leave alone without waiting for me?"
Gu Baiwei was about to leave with her things, thinking that she would go to the film crew to share food with everyone later.
Suddenly, Du Qingyan's voice came from behind.
Gu Baiwei turned around with some confusion and saw Du Qingyan running towards her with a surprised look in her eyes.
Why haven't you left yet?
Du Qingyan stopped in front of her, panting, before speaking: "I was probably tired yesterday and slept quite soundly, so I only woke up now."
