The stars shone brightly, and the lake was silent. In the middle of the night, the Xili Lake Resort was so tranquil that only the bright moonlight seemed alive.
After being chased by the college students, Cao Su held Su Shijia’s hand and strolled along the two-lane wide cement road towards the hotel at the resort’s entrance. His body felt serene, and his heart was satisfied.
Perhaps all men hoped to have such a reversal in their lives, to have their youthful dreams come true! His past was ordinary, but today, he had achieved his old aspirations. This kind of happiness was too refreshing. All of this was brought to him by the System.
Looking at Su Shijia’s charming smile, holding his hand, and briskly taking small steps as she reminisced about her university days, Cao Su suddenly understood why he had “won.”
“Jiajia, it is because I gave you a two-ball handicap when I played table tennis?”
Wealth and ability were the basics. When they were playing table tennis, she would chat with Dou Tianshuo for a long time, so there was a high chance that she would know about the financial resources that he had displayed to the public.
Su Shijia smiled elegantly and asked, “Isn’t that enough? You’re trying to see the big picture.”
Cao Su caressed her hair tenderly and pulled her into his embrace. He hugged her gently and pressed his face against her beautiful and fair face.
He understood her thoughts.
Leaving university and entering society: If her beauty could be considered capital, it would depreciate rapidly as she grew older and got married. In front of a wealthy man, she was as insignificant as duckweed.
Who would value and cherish her? There were many girls younger and more beautiful than her! Therefore, in front of him, she actually felt very inferior. She would no longer consider herself the department belle and goddess of her university days.
It was just like how she had realized that Wei Haocheng was only pursuing her to fulfill his dream and not to pursue her for real.
She wanted a man who treated her gently.
This was really a beauty who had suffered a lot in life! He couldn’t help but feel pity for her and wanted to protect her. However, Cao Su did not say anything at this time. He could not speak empty words. Let’s talk about this later in the parking lot.
Su Shijia gave Cao Su a gentle hug. Her heart was filled with tenderness and happiness. But seeing that Cao Su did not say anything in the end, she could not help but feel a little disappointed. She knew that Cao Su was not married yet, so she did not expect this.
Cao Su brought Su Shijia along the winding road and continued on, changing the topic to his impressions of reading “Gold.”
“Who wouldn’t be confused by these three things in Shi Cai Hong Fen Ge Restaurant?
“If money comes from the world, how is there long-term poverty?
“Once the horse dies, all the gold is gone, and the relatives become strangers.”
Su Shijia agreed with Cao Su. She was still a worker, so how could she have any experience with wealth? After another ten minutes, they arrived at the parking lot outside the resort. The two of them loosened their hands.
It would be a little awkward if his classmates saw it.
Cao Su brought Su Shijia to his sky-blue Bentley. “Jiajia, I have a gift for you.”
He took out an exquisite sandalwood gift box from the trunk. When he opened it, there was a very exquisite jade Buddha pendant inside. Its entire body was dark green and glowed under the moonlight. It was in excellent condition! The legendary imperial green jade.
“Ah!” Su Shijia gasped and covered her mouth in surprise. She didn’t need to look at the price to know that it was very expensive.
Cao Su smiled as he hung the jade Buddha on Su Shijia’s snow-white neck. The jade Buddha hung on the outside of her yellow T-shirt. She nodded in satisfaction. “It fits you like a glove.”
Su Shijia couldn’t help but take the initiative to hug Cao Su and snuggle in his arms. She listened to his heartbeat and stuck close to him. The depression and disappointment in his heart had all dissipated, followed by comfort and happiness.
She would definitely not believe him if he said that she was still his goddess. His assistant, Song, was so beautiful! Who was she?
However, giving her such an expensive gift meant that she still held some status in his heart.
She was very happy.
Cao Su smiled. How could he not feel Su Shijia’s downcast mood on the way? However, some things couldn’t be said with just words. They had to be done.
He gently caressed the beautiful young woman’s hair. “Jiajia, do we have something important to talk about?”
Su Shijia buried her head in Cao Su’s arms and hugged him tightly. She said softly, “Whatever you say. I’ll listen to you.”
Cao Su faintly smiled as he tenderly hugged the soft, tender, beautiful young married woman and said, “Jiajia, I can’t give you a status. But I will take care of you for the rest of your life. If you agree, say, “Brother Cao, 666!”
Su Shijia was amused by Cao Su’s words. She covered her mouth and giggled. This topic was originally a little heavy. She raised her head and looked up at his face, smiling like a flower. Under the moonlight, she whispered beside the car, “Brother Cao, 666!”
Cao Su laughed.
“You only know how to bully me.” Su Shijia pouted as she lightly punched Cao Su’s chest a few times. She was like a charming little woman. It was a little embarrassing to shout 666 for him.
“Then, are you willing to be bullied by me?” Cao Su stretched out his hand and smoothed out the hair on Su Shijia’s forehead as he asked with a smile.
Su Shijia looked at Cao Su with her big beautiful eyes and nodded shyly. The happiness in her heart was almost overflowing. She couldn’t help but tiptoe and whisper in Cao Su’s ear, “Cao Su, bring me to the forest by the lake again!”
Cao Su treated her gently. She wanted to treat him better.
“There are too many mosquitoes by the lake. Go to your room in the hotel. I’m afraid that Brother Tiger is waiting at the door of my room.”
Su Shijia lowered her head and replied in a charming voice.
The Xili Lake Resort had a total of seven floors. Su Shijia lived on the fourth floor. This was a lake-view room with a large bed. The room was well-furnished, and the environment was clean.
Cao Su took the remote control and turned down the volume of the television. The soundproofing of the room was good, but the surrounding environment was too quiet. It was better to turn on the television to cover up the commotion.
“Brother Su, what time is it?” Su Shijia asked lazily.
“It’s three in the morning.” Cao Su picked up his watch and looked at it. He turned around and admired Su Shijia’s beauty. “Jiajia, go to sleep. I’m going home.”
When their eyes met, Su Shijia thought of what had happened just now and blushed. She couldn’t help but look at him lovingly with her big, charming eyes. “Yes,” she replied submissively.
He definitely couldn’t stay overnight in her room, or all the students would know the next day.
Wei Haocheng took the bus back to Xili Lake Resort at around 9:30 in the morning. He received a call from Brother Tiger, telling him that Su Shijia and Yuan Si had already eaten breakfast and were preparing to return to Hui City. Cao Su’s assistant was arranging a car to go to Hui City.
He yawned as he returned home and took a big bag of Jiangzhou’s specialty, Zhou Hei Duck, which his friend had sent him. He quickly went over to give it to Su Shijia.
Su Shijia had changed her clothes today. She was wearing a white shirt with the corners tied together and a pair of tight-fitting blue jeans. It accentuated her 1.67-meter-tall figure, slender and graceful figure, as well as her round butt and long legs.
It was a beautiful and charming young woman.
“Brother Wei, thank you.” Su Shijia couldn’t reject him, but she couldn’t argue with him in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, so she could only accept it helplessly. He quietly looked at Cao Su, who was talking to his assistant in the distance.
She didn’t want him to misunderstand her.
Yuan Si covered her mouth and giggled. “Brother Wei, why don’t we have any?”
“If you want to eat, I’ll send you some later,” Wei Haocheng said generously.”This thing was sold online. Express delivery was not a waste of time. It was more affectionate to send it in person.
He felt that Su Shijia seemed to have become more beautiful after not seeing her for a night. The moist and charming young woman’s charm was inadvertently seen flowing. Her laughter was like a cup of tea, and a faint fragrance wafted by!
He laughed at himself in his heart. He had also become a young man. He had not seen her for a day and had automatically given points to the department belle he admired.
As they spoke, Cao Su’s assistant Song Jingying came over and arranged for a car to arrive at the hotel entrance. It was a black SUV with a spacious interior.
Su Shijia’s small suitcase was naturally placed in the trunk by the attentive boys. She was bidding farewell to her classmates by the car when her phone suddenly rang. It was a WeChat message from Cao Su. “Jiajia, I saw it. The duck neck is fine. Bon voyage!”
She couldn’t help but smile, feeling relieved. This sudden beautiful smile made many boys lose their minds on the spot.
“Brother Wei, Brother Lei, Brother Hu, Zheng Shaoning, Dou Tianshuo. Thank you for sending me off in the morning. Thank you, everyone. Let’s meet again!” Su Shijia waved her hand and sat in the car.
He left under everyone’s gaze.
“Su Shijia is getting more and more beautiful!” Yu Lei sighed. “It feels a little dazzling.”
Wei Haocheng suddenly reacted. He had rolled around in the flowers before, and his heart was filled with bitterness.
F*ck!
