Chapter 748 - 378: Return to the Capital
Chapter 748: Chapter 378: Return to the Capital
Transformed into a curious cat, Shen Yi was terribly upset. The feeling when she was itching to share something intensely but he just wouldn’t take the bait left her in a bit of discomfort.
Then Su Qing was gleefully gifted a ’lipstick’ experience card.
After a round of passion, Shen Yi lay on his chest, her hair mixed with sweat sticking to Su Qing’s chest. The two embraced in silence, both recovering their energy.
No idea what kind of stimulus Aunt Shen received today, but she suddenly broke through to a three-star Dou Wang level expert in mid-battle, catching him off guard. If he hadn’t been steadily progressing recently, he might really have capsized in a ditch.
After a good while, Shen Yi suddenly raised her head and said, "Aren’t you curious?"
Su Qing: "Ahem... It’s not that, sister, why are you still thinking about this? Why do you care so much if I’m curious?"
"Then quickly say you’re curious!" Shen Yi’s hand slid downwards, making Su Qing instantly not dare to move recklessly. Being caught in this weakness surely didn’t feel good.
"Alright, alright, I’m curious, I’m curious, okay?"
"Not okay, you haven’t asked me yet!"
"Alright then, I’m curious about what you and Zijun talked about, and how you ended, and why Sister Jun wanted to see you. Just tell me!"
Hearing this, Shen Yi felt immensely satisfied, a tingling sensation as if a faint electric current passed through her body, extremely comfortable.
"Curious, aren’t you? I won’t tell you, let you itch for it!" Shen Yi lifted her chin proudly.
To this, Su Qing couldn’t help but roll his eyes. Truth be told, Aunt Shen could be quite childish sometimes. Over such a trivial matter, she actually battled with him for so long.
Falling in love is often due to the other’s strengths, but to stay in love, you must accept the other’s flaws. People like to expose their most real, weakest sides to those they trust most, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
The difference lies in whether someone can accept it or not, or if it’s one-sided acceptance, which can lead to problems. Fortunately, Shen Yi’s and his personalities and perspectives are mostly aligned. Even with a few disagreements, it’s nothing significant.
"Ugh, I’m exhausted, I’m dead, sleep now!" Su Qing said, entering sage time.
Facing such a dismissive reply, Aunt Shen immediately felt unconvinced. Want to rest? No way!
She then slid completely down, tucked under the covers, and the next second, Su Qing widened his eyes fiercely:
"Oh... you little demon~~"
The next day, neither of them went to work. They slept until 10:30 in the morning before getting up to wash up, as today was the day they headed to the capital.
Shen Yi had handed over her company affairs, and Li Zijun’s checkpoint was passed as well. Stretching his neck is a cut, shrinking it is also a cut. For now, there’s nothing for the two of them in Jiang City.
Except that his mom occasionally sent messages these past couple of days, inviting them back for meals, wanting to chat more with Shen Yi. After all, if the family suddenly had one more person, it would be livelier.
If bored, Shen Yi could still chat with her to cheer her up. The big yellow dog had become almost irrelevant; after all, with a future daughter-in-law, who cares about a dog?
Moreover, is it just one more person? When Shen Yi gets pregnant, it could be said to be two more people in the family. Once there is a child, would a house still be lonely?
Wouldn’t the family’s liveliness shoot up instantly?
However, as they were preparing to head to the capital recently, they had to handle their current matters first, meaning they had to let his mom wait for a few days.
It’s not like they couldn’t bring Shen Yi home at night, but the main thing was, every visit to his place made Shen Yi tense. Although they joked and laughed, it wasn’t as comfortable as the two living together. You should know, Shen Yi never got up early here, but at his place, she’s up early.
"No need to bring stuff, just pack a phone charger, we’ll be fine. I’ve got a house over there and prepared clothes for both of us, rest assured!"
After a night’s battle, the relationship between the two broke through to a ’verbal agreement’ level. Not to mention, they unlocked a new achievement.
Hearing this, Su Qing found it quite reasonable, so the two of them just packed a bag and headed straight to the airport.
With a noon flight, they landed at Capital Airport by 2 PM.
In April, the capital wasn’t cold anymore, the weather was neither cold nor hot. Both dressed simply in pants and jackets. Though simple, Shen Yi’s sense of style was good, plus their charisma and looks, making them quite a sight.
This time, Su He didn’t come to pick them up because she had classes in the afternoon and couldn’t make it.
Exiting the airport, they found Tang Nan’s car in the parking lot and got in directly.
"Hey, you two really are something, such a big event and you don’t even tell me. Now you’re acting all righteous, where’s your face?" Tang Nan, busy checking her phone, was startled by the sudden opening of her car door.
"What’s the point of telling you? Sister Qing has experience, do you? You don’t even know which way your ex’s front door opens, and you want to meddle in my affairs!"
Sitting in the front passenger seat, Shen Yi smugly crossed her arms.
Look at the sister’s ability, she either doesn’t date easily, or if she does, she’s meeting the family. At this rate, marriage is practically guaranteed in the future.
How about it, with several boyfriends Tang Nan still remained single?
"I... I won’t stoop to your level!" Tang Nan turned her head, smiled at the back seat, and said, "Hey brother~~ This time around, do I get any perks from you? You’ve been receiving quite a few scripts lately, and Xiao Ling’s been saving them for you. If there’s a good project this time, you have to think of your sister, okay~"
Nowadays, in Tang Nan’s eyes, Su Qing isn’t just a young lad, he’s like a God of Wealth.
The box office revenue from "Wandering Earth" was divided, and after Su Qing deducted the initial investment of 80 million, he made over two billion, almost reaching three small goals, which made her incredibly envious.
And this time, coming over is to officially invest in the second part of "Wandering Earth." She admitted, she was tempted. She wanted a piece of the action, and she had the money.
But you see, who would release their grip on a surefire profitable project? It’s the goose that lays golden eggs.
With the "Wandering Earth" IP and Director Wang on their side, it was a golden opportunity. There’s no shortage of investment, so all she could do was pin her hopes on Su Qing’s other projects.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing chuckled, "Aren’t you worried that last time was just a stroke of luck? After all, my three projects haven’t concluded yet. I might suffer losses, aren’t you afraid?"
"Not afraid, if it flops, I’ll just consider it as fun. I have money, but I still need your advice," Tang Nan said as she started the car, slowly heading towards the city center.
Hearing this, before Su Qing could reply, Shen Yi chimed in:
"Coming again? I haven’t even settled the score with you for ’Demon Capital Fortress’. What’s with Teng Hua, making a move on us? You let the wolf in; tell me, aren’t you silly!" Shen Yi mocked with a sideways glance.
Still want to mention new projects? Recently, the hype around "Demon Capital Fortress" has been skyrocketing, trending with buzzwords like sci-fi and another masterpiece following "Wandering Earth," Director Wang’s approval, Stock God’s investment, and so on.
Plus, with planned promotions, the momentum was far surpassing that of "Wandering Earth."
Hearing this, Tang Nan’s face changed and she replied, "Ahem, that was an accident, let’s not bring it up again. I’ll treat you both to a meal later as an apology, okay!"
