An awkward silence filled the car after that. All of a sudden, an idea seemed to strike Jin Fengchen, and he asked, "Fengyao, do you know any restaurant in the city that's both romantic and has good food?"Jin Fengyao didn't think much of it, and said casually, "Romantic? Go to one of those Western-style restaurants for couples and have a candlelight dinner."Jin Fengchen wasn't satisfied with the answer. Frowning, he asked, "Is that all? Do you know of some place that'll look like I put thought into it?"Only then did Jin Fengyao smell something fishy, and he asked immediately, "What plan do you have?"Jin Fengchen's face was unperturbed, but the words out of his mouth were shocking. "I'm going to propose to her."Jin Fengyao was stunned for a moment before he came back to himself, and he almost jumped out of the car. With eyes lit up, he said, "How could you be so calm when making such a big announcement? I'm impressed."Hearing that, Jin Fengchen glanced at him, and said indif
After Jiang Sese got back home, Xiaobao wouldn't let her out of his sight. He kept nagging her, asking her to read him a "Tom and Jerry" story, which made Mrs. Jin a little jealous."So, you've forgotten all about Grandma as soon as Mommy's home. Is that it?"Recognizing his grandmother's tone, the smart boy jumped out of Jiang Sese's arms, kissed Mrs. Jin on the face, then said sweetly, "Of course not. I like Grandma, too. But Daddy says that I have to protect Mommy when he's not around. I remember that."Hearing that, Mrs. Jin squeezed his chubby cheeks, and chided him with a smile. "You're such a smart cookie, aren't you?"Jin Fengchen got back home to find these three bantering in the living room, which put him in a good mood. He couldn't help asking, "You're all so happy. What are you talking about?""Your smart little boy is doing everything he can to make me happy. Why, you're back early today," said Mrs. Jin with a smile, after glancing at Xiaobao.Jin Fengchen sat down n
Smiling, he walked over to the bed, untied his bathrobe with one hand, and lay down next to Jiang Sese.She couldn't help opening her eyes when she felt the mattress sink from his weight. The first thing she saw was Jin Fengchen's perfect pecs. When she moved her eyes down his body, she saw...She flushed with shyness and wanted to turn away, but he didn't give her that chance. He then pressed his lips onto hers in his domineering manner.His lips felt cool, which was in stark contrast to how hot his body was.Before long, Jiang Sese surrendered to his gentle touches. Her eyes became unfocused and her body temperature seemed to be rising, making her skin almost too hot to the touch.Seeing all the marks he had left on Jiang Sese's body, Jin Fengchen was very pleased...."Mommy! Mommy! Open the door!"Early the next morning, they were woken up by Xiaobao. Hearing the boy's voice, Jiang Sese nudged the man next to her.Jin Fengchen wasn't pleased to be woken up like this, but h
At that moment, Jiang Sese was too surprised to utter a word. Pressing both hands over her mouth, she stared speechlessly at Jin Fengchen with teary eyes.Touched, she was so overwhelmed with happiness and excitement that she didn't know how to describe her feelings.The fireworks kept going off overhead, separating the two of them from the noises outside. They looked into each other's eyes.It was as if the two of them were the only people left in this world.Seeing that Sese wouldn't reply, Jin Fengchen had no choice but to go on. "This might seem too sudden for you, but I've been giving it a lot of thought lately, and had put it off until today. It has taken me so long because all the plans I came up with seemed perfunctory to me. Still, I want you to see that I've always wanted to marry you. Since no time is better than now, why don't we let all the stars be our witnesses?"He couldn't help looking up at the sky after those words, then went on. "Most of these stars belong to s
The following day, there was a knock on the door before sunrise.It didn't take a genius to figure out that it was Xiaobao again. He knew where his parents were this time, so he came to them the first thing in the morning.Probably having learned from their past experience, they both got dressed much faster this time.As soon as the door was opened, Xiaobao rushed in like a gust of wind and threw his arms around Jiang Sese. "Mommy, the view up here in this resort is great! Can we go have a picnic? And I want to fly a kite, too."Rubbing his head, Jiang Sese said gently, "Sure."Next to them, Jin Fengchen grew a little impatient. Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Xiaobao, aren't you going to invite your dad to fly the kite with you?"Xiaobao found that suggestion reasonable. After some thought, he nodded, then said sweetly, "Daddy, can you buy us the picnic blanket, some food, and a kite? Thank you, Daddy!"Jin Fengchen shook his head at the smart kid's request, unable to decide if
Although Jiang Sese had heard about Zifeng's arrival, she didn't think much of it, for she knew that Jin Fengchen loved her. She believed that if she loved someone, she had to trust him completely and she shouldn't have any doubts about him.At noon, Jiang Sese got a message from Jin Fengchen, telling her to come to his office for lunch, so she went upstairs right away.She arrived at Jin Fengchen's floor to find a newly set up secretary's desk and noticed the person behind it. "She has to be Zifeng, the rumored new secretary. She's indeed very pretty."Unlike Jiang Sese's gentleness, Zifeng had an aggressive quality to her beauty, and that made Jiang Sese a little uncomfortable.A war between two women was an invisible one, and it started when their eyes met.The assistant greeted Jiang Sese with a smile as soon as she arrived. "Sister Sese, there you are. Allow me to introduce you to Mr. Jin's new secretary, Zifeng."Zifeng, this is Miss Jiang Sese, the president's fiancee, and
The assistant only watched Jin Fengchen and Jiang Sese enviously, but Zifeng clenched her fists.Sensing the change in Zifeng's demeanor, the assistant couldn't help asking, "Zifeng, what's wrong?""Nothing."After saying that in a cold voice, Zifeng left the room.Jin Fengchen had the steward take Xiaobao back to kindergarten after the boy woke up. He was just a boy, but Jin Fengchen didn't want him to get used to ditching school.That afternoon when Jiang Sese finished her work, it was just about time to leave for the day. She felt very relieved when she saw that there were no more pending files on her desk.After quickly tidying up her desk, she went upstairs to tell Jin Fengchen that it was time to go home.She arrived at Jin Fengchen's office to find Jin Fengyao there as well, so she greeted the latter with a smile. "Fengyao, you're here.""Hello, Sister-in-law," said Jin Fengyao, winking and grinning.Jin Fengchen cast a stern look at his brother when he saw this, and Ji
Jin Fengyao was so lost in his story that he completely missed the unusual change in Zifeng's mood.A grim look flashed in her eyes. "How can such a woman be good enough for him?"To Zifeng, Jiang Sese was just another woman who had randomly shown up in Jin Fengchen's life and gotten close to him using all her effort. Jin Fengchen, on the other hand, was a ray of sunlight to Zifeng. Jiang Sese shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath as Jin Fengchen.Jin Fengyao had been telling the story in the most exaggerated manner, but Zifeng never gave him any reply. Only then did he realize that something was off, and he asked immediately, "Zifeng, are you even listening?"By then, Zifeng was too lost in her old memories of Jin Fengchen to hear Jin Fengyao's voice.Seeing how absent-minded Zifeng was, Jin Fengyao couldn't take it anymore, so he raised his voice. "Zifeng!"Zifeng snapped out of her trance-like state and gave Jin Fengyao an odd look that had a hint of vexation in it. S
