On Friday evening, Zhen Bao was in a great mood, knowing that she would see Fu Ming Shi on the weekend. After finishing her two-hour part-time job as scheduled, she voluntarily assisted a senior nursing student in checking the recovery of several pets after surgery. She took this opportunity to gain practical experience that couldn't be learned from textbooks.
However, just after examining three animals, Fu Ming Shi called.
Zhen Bao glanced at the senior nursing student and walked to a corner to answer the call.
"Are you working overtime?"
Zhen Bao was surprised and asked, "Are you outside?"
Fu Ming Shi replied with an "Mm."
Zhen Bao immediately hung up and apologized to the nursing student, "I'm sorry, I have something to do. I have to go."
"Is it your boyfriend? Go on, don't let it interfere with your date." The nursing student with freckles on her face smiled and said.
Zhen Bao smiled, packed her things, and left. When she went outside, she saw Fu Ming Shi waiting by her bicycle. It seemed that he particularly liked her bicycle because every time he came to see her, whether it was at the teaching building or outside the hospital, he would sit on the back seat of her bicycle.
"Why are you here now?" Zhen Bao curiously asked.
"Grandfather misses you. We'll have a video call tonight. Are you going back tonight? I'll drive you back tomorrow," Fu Ming Shi said, standing up straight and looking at her inquisitively.
Since grandfather wanted to video call, Zhen Bao had no choice but to go back, and she also missed Hei Dan and Yue Liang. Yue Liang was the black cat Zhen Bao adopted from the Athletic Association last time. Because the little guy had all black fur, only its two clear green eyes could be seen in the dark, like two crescent moons in the sky.
"Then let me go back to the dormitory first," Zhen Bao said, avoiding eye contact. She needed to get the gift she prepared for him.
"I'll accompany you." Fu Ming Shi smiled and asked her for the keys to her bicycle.
About fifteen minutes later, the two of them got on Fu Ming Shi's newly bought low-profile car.
Fu Ming Shi's villa was only half an hour's drive from A University. It seemed like they arrived in no time. Wang Mama prepared several home-cooked dishes, and they started cooking when they arrived. Zhen Bao sat in the living room watching TV, and Hei Dan ran over wanting to lick her, while Yue Liang, relying on its jumping ability, jumped directly into her arms. Its round cat head occasionally rubbed against her chest. Zhen Bao used one hand to let Hei Dan lick and the other hand to stroke Yue Liang. She was almost busy.
Fu Ming Shi lazily leaned against the side, silently watching her play with the pets.
It was almost 9 o'clock after dinner. It was morning on the other side where Grandfather was, so it was the perfect time for a video call.
Grandfather Fu was in good spirits, and his smile seemed to have never disappeared since seeing Zhen Bao. Then, it seemed like he didn't even have a grandson in his eyes, he only talked to Zhen Bao. They chatted for half an hour, and then Grandfather Fu advised Zhen Bao to rest upstairs while he discussed some business matters with his grandson.
Zhen Bao glanced at Fu Ming Shi and went upstairs, holding Yue Liang and leading Hei Dan to the third floor.
Upstairs, she could faintly hear Fu Ming Shi's voice. Zhen Bao looked down through the stairs, then looked at Fu Ming Shi's bedroom, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. She wanted to know what kind of razor Fu Ming Shi was using now. If the price range of Fu Ming Shi's razor was in the four digits, her razor, which originally cost over two thousand, wouldn't be too bad. But if Fu Ming Shi's razor was too high-end, then she shouldn't give it as a gift.
She stood still for a moment, then quietly walked up to Fu Ming Shi's bedroom door, pressed the handle, and found it unlocked.
Although she hadn't intended to be a thief and had a clear conscience, Zhen Bao's heart was racing. Setting down the moon, she quickly slipped inside and headed straight for the bathroom. Finding a razor, Zhen Bao didn't recognize the brand, so she took out her phone and took a picture, planning to search the internet when she returned to her room. After taking the photo, she put the razor back in its place and hurriedly walked out.
Once outside, Zhen Bao found herself sweating, even though she had just walked a short distance. But when she reached her own bedroom, she suddenly realized that the moon hadn't followed her!
Looking at the innocent Black Egg, Zhen Bao quickly turned back to find the cat. When she had entered the room earlier, Fu Ming Shi's bedroom door had been closed, so the moon couldn't have gone in by itself. Leaving the moon behind would serve as evidence of her intrusion into Fu Ming Shi's bedroom.
Entering once more, Zhen Bao quickly scanned the master bedroom but didn't find the moon. She then went to the bathroom and immediately spotted the moon squatting on the toilet, peering inside. Zhen Bao was startled and rushed over to try to catch the cat, but the moon lightly jumped and refused to come with her!
"Be obedient, Moon..." Zhen Bao bent down, using an unprecedented gentle tone to coax.
The moon sat in the bathtub, its green eyes looking blankly at its owner.
Zhen Bao approached slowly, but before she could get close, the moon ran off again, a black shadow flashing into the bedroom.
Zhen Bao chased after it with a throbbing headache.
This time, the moon lay like a king on Fu Ming Shi's large bed, a dark mass, squinting its eyes in utmost comfort.
"If you don't listen, I won't like you anymore," Zhen Bao threatened softly as she approached.
The moon didn't move.
But Fu Ming Shi's bed was too big, and the moon lay in the middle. Zhen Bao had to prop the bed with one hand to reach the moon.
So when Fu Ming Shi walked perplexedly to the bedroom he had clearly closed before leaving, he saw his fiancée's back against the bed. The temperature inside the villa was pleasant, and Zhen Bao had taken off her coat, leaving her in only a white woolen sweater. Now, as the sweater slid up, it revealed a beautiful slender waist, and further down, a young girl's shapely behind tightly wrapped in jeans.
Fu Ming Shi realized for the first time that a pair of jeans costing only a few dollars could exude such an alluring fragrance.
His throat rolled, and Fu Ming Shi silently approached.
Black Egg and Moon were both very familiar with him, and although they had seen him, neither the cat nor the dog showed any signs of surprise.
"No more mischief," Zhen Bao finally caught hold of the moon, stroking its head and coaxing the little creature towards her.
The moon obediently rubbed against its owner, lying comfortably and unwilling to get up.
Zhen Bao was about to stand up straight when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a large hand appearing on the side of the bed!
Startled, Zhen Bao turned around.
Fu Ming Shi took the opportunity to hold her shoulders and forced her to lie back on the bed. Then he placed both hands on either side of her body, lowered his head to meet her gaze, and dangerous fire flickered in his dark eyes. "You came to my room willingly, and struck that pose. Zhen Bao, did I misunderstand or do you really want...?"
"Zhen Bao had just experienced a fright, her heart still pounding with fear. Now, Fu Ming Shi loomed over her like Mount Tai, his posture aggressive. Nervously, her heart thumped, but she didn't dare to move. It took her a while to register what Fu Ming Shi had said before she hurriedly turned her head and explained, 'I... Yue Liang came over to your side, and I came to catch it.'
Fu Ming Shi stared at her flushed face and said in a deep voice, 'I remember. I closed the door when I left.'
Her excuse was clearly exposed. Zhen Bao blushed even more, realizing that Fu Ming Shi pressed even closer. She couldn't think of a more reasonable explanation, so she closed her eyes and spoke the truth, 'I wanted to give you a gift...'
Fu Ming Shi's throat tightened, and he couldn't wait to interrupt her, saying, 'Thank you, I really like it.'
After speaking, he lowered his body, pressing himself against her, and eagerly kissed her lips.
He knew that her gift definitely had another meaning, but he was willing to misunderstand.
She was too enticing, offering herself willingly. He wasn't that much of a gentleman.
Unlike their previous kisses, this time their postures were more intimate and ambiguous. Zhen Bao could even feel Fu Ming Shi deliberately pressing against her chest. He was only wearing a shirt while she wore a slim-fit wool sweater that Qian Lele helped her pick, which really accentuated her figure...
When Fu Ming Shi's large hand quietly moved up from the side, Zhen Bao felt an electric shock and pushed him away abruptly.
Fu Ming Shi wanted to, but he was only testing her. Since Zhen Bao resisted, he immediately stopped and looked up at her apologetically, saying, 'I'm sorry, I thought... you were the gift.'
'No,' Zhen Bao asked him to move aside first, then stood up and adjusted her wool sweater. She turned her back to him and whispered, 'I got paid, so I bought you a shaver. I just wanted to see what brand you use, afraid that I chose something too cheap that you wouldn't like.'
Using the money she earned from her part-time job to buy him a gift?
Receiving a gift from his fiancee for the first time, Fu Ming Shi was pleasantly surprised, so surprised that he overlooked his bodily desires.
'Show it to me. The prices of shavers are similar, and the one I use isn't expensive either.' Fu Ming Shi walked to the other side of Zhen Bao, speaking earnestly.
Zhen Bao didn't know if he was telling the truth or not, but eager to break free from the current awkward atmosphere, she quickly walked past Fu Ming Shi to her room to retrieve the gift. Fu Ming Shi wanted to follow her, but she casually closed the door, leaving Hei Dan outside as well.
Hei Dan raised its paw and scratched the door.
Fu Ming Shi smiled wryly. This was the price of impatience.
'Here.' Zhen Bao opened a small crack in the door, extending her hand out while keeping herself hidden inside.
'It's not even ten o'clock yet. How about watching a movie together?' Fu Ming Shi leaned closer to the door crack and whispered an invitation.
'I want to go to sleep.' Zhen Bao's face was still red, and she didn't want to see him again tonight.
Fu Ming Shi sighed helplessly and accepted the gift.
Just as he received the gift box, the door closed gently. Fu Ming Shi instinctively lowered his head, and this time even Hei Dan squeezed in.
Luckily, there was still another gift.
Fu Ming Shi went back to his room and opened the gift. It was a pale blue gift box, looking youthful. Inside was a well-known brand of shaver. Fu Ming Shi had used this brand during his university days, and his mother had given him a shaver of the same brand as a birthday gift, which he had been using until today."
The phone buzzed with a new message notification. Fu Ming Shi picked up his phone and saw a message from Zhen Bao: "It's very cheap. If you don't like it, don't use it."
Fu Ming Shi chuckled and replied, "I'll start using it tomorrow morning. As long as it doesn't break, I won't replace it unless you give me a new one."
In the neighboring bedroom, Zhen Bao was lying on the bed. When she saw his reply, she finally felt a sense of relief. But she still pulled out the secretly taken photos and noted down the brand name, searching online for "Zafirro razor." She scrolled through the search results and clicked on an article titled "The Most Expensive Razor in the World." Upon comparing the photos, she realized that Fu Ming Shi was using exactly that razor!
One costs a hundred thousand dollars, while the promotional price is six hundred...
Zhen Bao buried her face in the sheets and once again realized that she and Fu Ming Shi were truly from different worlds.
Meanwhile, out of curiosity, Fu Ming Shi also searched for the price of Zhen Bao's gift. It wasn't to criticize her, but rather because he didn't want her to spend too much. She was a girl who couldn't bring herself to eat an extra meal. He knew how hard she worked for her part-time job, and instead of wasting her hard-earned money on him, he hoped she would use it to improve her own life.
But upon checking, Fu Ming Shi discovered that Zhen Bao had nearly spent half a month's salary on this gift.
She's such a silly girl.
~
It was Saturday, and Zhen Bao didn't have to go to class. After a busy week, she rarely got to sleep in, but this time she woke up at eight o'clock.
After brushing her teeth, washing her face, and applying moisturizer, Zhen Bao opened the door, intending to take the dog for a walk. To her surprise, as soon as she opened the door, Fu Ming Shi appeared from the side.
"Good morning," Fu Ming Shi said, looking down at her with gentle and pure eyes, as if he hadn't passionately kissed her the night before.
Zhen Bao couldn't act as naturally as he did. She lowered her head and nodded. "When did you arrive?"
"I was just about to knock," Fu Ming Shi said, stepping aside to let her out.
Zhen Bao closed the door behind her with her hand. Just as she was about to do so, Fu Ming Shi suddenly pressed her against the door and leaned in. Zhen Bao instinctively moved to dodge the sudden kiss, but Fu Ming Shi only held her head and lightly brushed his chin against her tender cheek, like a silken tofu.
It tickled.
Zhen Bao was puzzled and tilted her head. "What are you doing?" It didn't seem like he was trying to kiss her.
Fu Ming Shi continued to rub her face and spoke seriously, "I used the shaving razor my fiancée gave me to shave my beard. Just trying it out."
Zhen Bao laughed silently. She had only heard of children being eager to show off their new clothes, but she had never seen someone excited about a new razor...
"Alright," he kept rubbing, and Zhen Bao glanced at the stairs, afraid that Wang Ma might come up and catch them.
"Give me a good morning kiss." Hearing the laughter in her voice, Fu Ming Shi slowly turned to face her, locking his gaze with hers.
He was too good to her. Zhen Bao met his gaze for a few seconds, smiled, and closed her eyes, quickly giving him a peck.
A light and fleeting kiss, just like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water.
