Chu Mohan frowned slightly when he heard Shao Yatong's words, and a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes. If he wouldn't use his money to buy gifts for him, then who would he buy gifts for?
Seeing Chu Mohan's gloomy expression, Shao Yatong hurriedly stood up, put her arms around his neck and lay on his shoulder, saying softly: "I can't afford a gift, but I will give you a surprise on your birthday!"
Chu Mohan was startled. Yes, it was his birthday soon, and he almost forgot that "The Thinker" was a surprise for him? Otherwise, how could he hide it so well! Thinking about it, his mood naturally improved.
.
Shao Yatong mustered up the courage to put her lips together and give Chu Mohan a quick kiss on the cheek. "Does a kiss count as a gift? Is it a way to express gratitude...ah -" Shao Yatong's voice was very low because of embarrassment, but still
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and fell down.
Chu Mohan forcefully pulled Shao Yatong off his back and held him in his arms excitedly. Looking down at her panting in his arms, his heart was racing even more. This kiss was more surprising than anything else, and more powerful than anything else.
"I hate you, you scare me to death...well..."
Shao Yatong's complaints were all swallowed up at this moment, and there was nothing but heavy breathing in the room.
After playing with a few people on Dachangshan Island for two days, Liao Zheming and Chu Mohan successfully obtained the development rights. It was time to say goodbye soon. Liao Zheming and Chu Mohan stood at the dock chatting and waiting. Shao Yatong
Hele Xinchi has endless things to say.
"Sister-in-law, I will definitely go to City C to find you when I have time." Shao Yatong reluctantly held Le Xinchi's hand.
"Okay, I will definitely let you see the painting "Paradise Lost" then... In fact, Zhe Ming has always wanted to send this painting away. I don't know if it will still be there when you come!"
"Send him away? Send him to where?" Shao Yatong was frightened. She was really afraid that she would not have the chance to see it.
"I don't know where to send it. I can't bear to destroy the key!"
"Destroy? Why?" Although Shao Yatong has never seen that painting, he has seen those sketches of Liao Zheming and knows his skills and attainments. For Chu Mohan to give such a high evaluation to that painting, it must be a painting.
Such a masterpiece, even if it were put up for auction, it would fetch a sky-high price.
"It's been so long. Although we have a very good and harmonious relationship now, when I think that the painting that represents the dark world in Zhe Ming's heart is still at home, it will touch my heart. Zhe Ming has wanted to send it away for a long time.
I also thought about donating it to auction, but I didn’t know who would get it, so I kept hesitating..."
"Sister-in-law, please let me ask you, can you not send that painting away first? When I return to Liao'an, I will go to City C to find you. I must see what kind of painting it is." Shao Yatong wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Look, since the couple wants to send him away and Chu Mohan likes it, then if she can, she is willing to beg for the painting for him.
"Okay, we will set off back soon. We will wait for your news then." Le Xinchi bent down and picked up Zi Xi, who was standing beside her obediently. "See, those two grown men are already impatient with waiting.
, let’s go there.”
"Dear Zixi, Aunt Yatong will visit you in a few days. Do you welcome her?"
"Really? Adults can't lie to children, let's check it out!" Zi Xi innocently stretched out her little finger.
"Okay, hook up!" Shao Yatong smiled and hooked Zi Xi's little finger. She was really envious, wishing she could have such a cute and well-behaved daughter.
Chu Mohan originally wanted to take Shao Yatong to stay at sea for two more days as he did when he came here, but Shao Yatong returned quickly and asked to go back quickly, saying that she was worried about her grandfather's health, but Chu Mohan felt that she must be hiding something from him.
Shao Yatong was actually thinking that Chu Mohan's birthday was coming soon. She was originally thinking about creating a surprise for him, but when Le Xinchi mentioned that the painting was going to be given away, she decided to rush to City C to take a look.
If possible, she planned to get Chu Mohan the painting "Paradise Lost" as a birthday gift before his birthday.
Back in Liao'an, Chu Mohan was immersed in work, while Shao Yatong started planning to go to City C. What she was upset about was that she couldn't go to school, she didn't have a job, she didn't even have any relatives, and now she couldn't find an excuse to go out.
.
I was anxious when I received a call from Liang Xinran.
"sister in law……"
"Xiaoran, I'm looking for something to do with you. Let's make an appointment to meet him. I won't delay you for too long."
"Okay, okay, come to Whisper Teahouse, here on Wangjie."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Shao Yatong excitedly put away the phone, took her handbag, and hurried out. She didn't even notice the excitement on Liang Xinran's phone, and ignored that she took the initiative to call, and didn't even ask.
What did Liang Xinran want to do with her?
As soon as Shao Yatong entered the teahouse, she saw Liang Xinran waving to her by the window.
"Xiaoran, it's so nice to see you..." Shao Yatong quickly walked up to Liang Xinran, picked up the tea cup in front of Liang Xinran and drank all the tea in one breath. She had just come out in a hurry and now her mouth was dry.
After drinking it all, she picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup. She sat down opposite Liang Xinran with the teacup in her hand. "I'm so thirsty."
Liang Xinran was stunned by Shao Yatong's actions.
"Xiao Ran, I'm asking you to help me. You can help me." After finishing his tea, Shao Yatong put down the cup and grabbed Liang Xinran's hand, looking at her pleadingly.
Liang Xinran was a little at a loss. She didn't know what Shao Yatong asked of her. She looked uneasily in the corner of the teahouse. She was entrusted with asking Shao Yatong out. It seemed that this was her fate.
"You must promise me, Xiaoran, please." Shao Yatong clasped his hands together and kept bowing.
Liang Xinran swallowed and said, "Just tell me, I will definitely help if I can."
"I want to go out and see a friend out of town, but you know Chu Mohan... how should I put it? Anyway, I just want you to call him for me, make up an excuse and help me 'ask for leave'
In two or three days, I will go back quickly and won't cause you any trouble." Shao Yatong looked at Liang Xinran pitifully.
"This... Brother Han and I may not be able to..."
"Please Xiaoran, I can only beg you!" Shao Yatong was bound to win, and she really couldn't think of anyone else who could help her.
"Um...don't you ask me what I want to do with you? I'm planning to ask you out!" Liang Xinran changed the subject.
Shao Yatong was stunned, "Yes, it was you who called me. So what do you want from me?" Shao Yatong felt that he was a little careless, and looking at Liang Xinran's tangled eyebrows, it seemed that she was really embarrassed.
"Actually... um... wait a minute, I'm going to the bathroom first." Liang Xinran was about to speak when someone passed by and coughed lightly, then she got up and left.
