"Don't be so smug," said Hua Sheng with a smile.Looking at the smile on Hua Sheng's face, Jiang Liu felt a sense of comfort in his heart. He also began to understand why the ancient emperors would want to win the favor of a beautiful lady even at the price of losing their country.He recalled that when he first met Hua Sheng and she moved to the Villa of Abundant Youth, she had always been cold and indifferent to everything. Even though she was still aloof, she had more smiles on her face now, which made Jiang Liu become fonder of her.Seeing the young couple be so intimate, Peach and Gingko felt happy in their hearts and started to prepare dessert for them in the kitchen.Sometimes, when Hua Sheng was in a good mood, she would play chess with Jiang Liu.Although they were not as intimate as those couples who were deeply in love, Jiang Liu felt very satisfied with the current state of being courteous to each other like "guests".He even thought greedily, "In the future... if Hua
"Yes. Here you are." Xie Dongyang took out a delicate small bottle, which was full of blue liquid, from his small bag."This is..." Hua Sheng was a little surprised."Since I announced that we would withdraw Deep Awakening from circulation, there was none left on the market. All of the stock in the hands of retail stores and distributors had been recalled and then destroyed. This is the last bottle of Deep Awakening I have and I want to give it to you." While talking, Xie Dongyang handed the small bottle of blue liquid to Hua Sheng. He had heard from Hua Sheng that she had taken the medicine and felt that it was not bad, so he kept a bottle for her when he destroyed the medicine.Hua Sheng took the blue liquid and felt complicated in her heart.She had really appreciated this medicine very much because she had the warmest dream about her grandmother after taking it. She had studied its ingredients and found out there were some Chinese herbs in addition to the Ningshen Grass, which
Xie Dongyang thought for a moment, but decided not to tell her right then. He said, "In fact, I heard something about him, but I'm not sure if it's true, so I can't tell you. I think if you want to figure it out, you'd better ask Jiang Liu in person. If he really has some secrets, as long as you ask, he'll definitely not lie.""All right."Seeing that Xie Dongyang didn't want to tell her, Hua Sheng didn't ask more. After all, she was never a curious person.As a matter of fact, Xie Dongyang invited Hua Sheng for dinner merely to express his gratitude. If it had been him in the past, he would probably have wanted to book a whole five-star hotel to invite Hua Sheng to dinner.However, he had changed now. After learning that Hua Sheng wanted to keep a low profile, he respected her attitude and only booked this small casserole porridge shop.That was quite in line with Hua Sheng's wishes because she didn't like to do showy things. Xie Dongyang didn't stay after having lunch. He got in
Hua Sheng glanced at him and said, "I met with Xie Dongyang today.""Ah, and then?" Jiang Liu didn't have much of a reaction. After all, he knew that Hua Sheng didn't have a crush on Xie Dongyang."He seems to know something about you, but he didn't tell me directly. In fact, we're just partners, so I shouldn't ask about your private affairs, but I'm afraid that it'll affect our cooperation in the future, so I decided to ask you. Is there anything you're hiding from me?""Hiding from you?" Jiang Liu was stunned and thought about it for a moment."No, I've always been frank with you. You know my situation. You've seen my childhood photos. You also know that I went abroad to study.""Not these things, but something else. For example... do you have an illegitimate child outside?"Hua Sheng admitted that it was completely imagined by her for no reason, but illegitimate children were not rare in wealthy and powerful families.Xie Dongyang wanted to tell her something, but he did not
Yu Ping lowered her head silently, as if she was hiding something that was hard to say..."If you don't tell me, how can I help you? How can I know how much money you need?" Hua Sheng looked at her quietly.After a long while, Yu Ping raised her head, and her eyes were red with tears."My family, um, is very poor, so my parents always need money. I gave my scholarship to them, and I gave them 20,000 yuan to repair my house last time after I randomly won a lottery. Yesterday, my dad called and said that he wanted to buy a seeding machine, because it's time to seed now and a machine can make it easier for him. Seeing that I promised him so easily, he told me that he also wanted a harvester, which he could use to reap our own plants and help others to reap in order to earn some more money. I only have 4,000 yuan on my card, which I earned by working a part-time job. I thought of getting another 5,000 yuan through the credit card so he could buy the seeding machine. But it’ll take anoth
Four lines appeared faintly on the bamboo slip, which could only be seen by Hua Sheng.—Life is full of suffering, and the twists and turns are difficult to make smooth. If a kind man comes to help, a trace of hope appears in the life of suffering.The meaning of the words was apparent and simple. Yu Ping was born to be poor, and her road to success would be very difficult. She seldom could find a way to fulfill her wishes. If she were able to meet a kind person who was willing to lend a helping hand, perhaps she would have a chance to survive in the endless suffering."How should I say it? It's indeed an inauspicious result, but there's still a turning point. After all, she isn't destined to be poor for the rest of her life. Am I the so-called kind person mentioned on the bamboo slip?"Hua Sheng was lost in thought. "If I can help Yu Ping, will there be a turning point in her life?"After she read these words, she did not plan to tell anyone else. After all, it was ominous to div
Hua Sheng was so embarrassed that her face instantly turned red. Why would it happen to be a passionate scene? It made it seem as though she liked to watch pornographic movies."No, no.""It's all right. I'm not laughing at you. Everyone has their own physiological needs. It's normal." Jiang Liu tried to placate her, which drove Hua Sheng even crazier. She felt that her image was about to be ruined completely.Hua Sheng angrily closed the notebook and said, "I don't. This is an ordinary TV show rather than porn. It's a TV drama about vampires.""Fine. I understand."Hua Sheng didn't know what to say.Never mind. Hua Sheng felt that she had accidentally ruined her reputation and could not clear her name. Seeing Hua Sheng's frustrated expression, Jiang Liu was in a good mood because only at this time did his little girl have all kinds of expressions on her face. She looked like a 22-year-old girl rather than an aloof fairy at this moment.Xie Dongyang was indeed intelligent. After
Xie Dongyang scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "It's heart-breaking, sister-in-law."Feng Yu smiled and stopped making fun of him. However, she didn't try to persuade him to stop acting on his own, either. After seeing Hua Sheng, Feng Yu knew why her brother-in-law was so attracted to her. If she were a man, she would have done the same. Therefore, Feng Yu didn't intend to go on persuading him.Xie Dongyang had dinner in the residence and played games with his niece for a while. Then he drove back to his villa.On the way, he received calls from his old friends to invite him to have a drink, but he rejected all of them.Drinking and flirting with girls was what he used to do. Now, all he wanted was to start his business.Especially after experiencing the sweetness of ups and downs, he found a sense of accomplishment that he had never had before.When he got back to the villa, the nanny had already gone to sleep.Xie Dongyang went upstairs to take a shower and the
