Chapter 54
Yu Shu's injuries on her face healed, and she eagerly pulled Shen Youlin to pick up her car. Her DB11 had arrived.
The iconic butterfly doors of Aston Martin opened like a pair of little wings, extremely beautiful.
Which girl could refuse a luxurious car with wings?
The two took a taxi there. Yu Shu was excited all the way. She had already bought many car interior decorations even before the car arrived, which was not the case when she bought the run-down car previously.
Yu Shu pulled Shen Youlin's sleeve and walked forward. As soon as they entered the 4S store, they ran into an old acquaintance - Meng Xulin was also there, wearing the store's uniform, holding a bouquet to give to the new car owner.
Shen Youlin noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Ex-boyfriend?"
"Yeah."
Meng Xulin came over to present the flowers, his tone slightly sour, "Congratulations Ms. Yu on getting a luxury car."
Yu Shu accepted it calmly, even with a smile, "Thank you. Congratulations to you too for finding a job. Growing lemons is good, I wish you a bumper lemon harvest."
The manager was extremely anxious, regretting that he shouldn't have let this new guy present flowers just because he looked handsome. He quickly smoothed things over, "Xiao Meng is new here and doesn't know how to speak properly. Please don't mind him."
A strand of Yu Shu's hair was caught under her necklace. Shen Youlin reached out and brushed it out, his fingertips touching the skin on the side of her neck.
Meng Xulin saw it and immediately became red-eyed, "Ms. Yu would certainly mind. Now that she has climbed up the social ladder, she has to be arrogant and condescending."
"Are you misunderstanding something?" Shen Youlin interjected, looking completely innocent.
Meng Xulin: "What did I misunderstand?"
"You misunderstood our relationship." Shen Youlin looked shy, holding Yu Shu's arm, "She's a rich woman, I'm her kept man."
"..."
Yu Shu: "..."
Yu Shu patted his hand, "Don't spout nonsense."
"Look at him!" Shen Youlin coquettishly stamped his feet, "He covets you! He wants to take advantage but is ashamed to admit it! Humph~"
This "humph" was very spirited, one-third silly, one-third petulant, and another one-third arrogance from favoritism.
Meng Xulin's face was already extremely ugly. The manager signaled to other employees to take Meng Xulin away.
Shen Youlin continued to add fuel to the fire, leaning on Yu Shu's shoulder acting coy, "Oh dear, I like Porsches. Ms. Yu bought one for me!"
"I'll buy it! I'll even buy you the stars!"
When driving away, Shen Youlin had her drive past Meng Xulin once.
"Childish," Yu Shu scolded with her mouth, but still did as he said.
As they passed Meng Xulin, Shen Youlin blew a loud whistle at him, angering the latter so much that his forehead bulged with veins.
"Don't get me wrong, but your taste in men sucks."
After leaving the 4S shop, the two chatted. Shen Youlin scoffed at Yu Shu's ex-boyfriend.
"It's not that my taste is bad, it's that men nowadays are no good."
"What's no good about them? Look at me? I'm great in every way."
Yu Shu smiled and glanced at him, "I've seen, you're no good in every way."
"I'm handsome and elegant, beautiful as a flower, highly learned and talented, my abilities are top-notch. And I was born lucky, although my dozen or so uncles are annoying, at least my family is wealthy. And my eccentric mom comes from a scholarly family!"
"Yes, yes, yes, you're right about everything." Yu Shu changed her tone, "But you're vengeful, do whatever you want without considering others. You never care about how others feel."
"..."
"Think about it from another perspective. If you were a girl, disregarding background and looks, would you date, marry, have children with, and spend your whole life with a man like yourself?"
Shen Youlin imagined it for a moment, then couldn't help but shudder, and gave the objective conclusion: "I'd be vomiting blood every day."
"Right?" Yu Shu smiled, "It's great that you're so disillusioned about real life. Our friendship can thus remain unbreakable."
"Yeah."
Shen Youlin blinked his eyes, "Since you're in such a good mood today, can you give me the gift you owe me?"
"Owe you? I don't owe you anything."
"Ms. Yu~ I even pretended to be a kept man today~ Ms. Yu~~~"
"Alright, you win."
"Oh yeah~!"
Shen Youlin left Yu Shu's home with a gift box. As soon as he went out the door, he eagerly opened it.
Inside the jewelry box was a pure and flawless imperial green jadeite, with excellent transparency.
Shen Youlin knew she had brought back many jadeites when she returned from Yunnan. Recently, the jade bracelet on her wrist changed every day - today it was a purple bracelet, yesterday it was a flower bracelet, the day before yesterday she wore a pair of light bluish-green dangly bracelets...
She didn't have a flawless imperial green bracelet.
Shen Youlin returned home, kicked off his shoes, and saw the silly dog sleeping in its bed. No matter how he looked at it, it annoyed him. He grabbed Dou'e's head and ravaged it. Dou'e drooled all over his hand with her mouth open.
"You're too fat! You'll eat cabbage today!"
"Whimper..."
"Whimpering is useless. You'll eat cabbage tomorrow too! Whimper more and you'll eat cabbage for a week."
"..."
Dou'e felt wronged, aggrieved, but didn't say anything.
The following is unrelated to the main text:
Zhi Zhi brings Yu Shu to wish friends in this Year of the Tiger: a lively and vigorous body, a thriving career like a tiger with wings added, a happy and harmonious family, work and business leaping like a dragon and tiger, happiness that never ends, and good fortune always accompanying the same as before!
In addition, Yu Shu wishes everyone a wealthy Year of the Tiger, and may all your wishes come true. (Her words are enlightened, so whatever she says will come true.)
There will be another update later.
