Chapter 269 - The Long-Lost Two-Person World (1/2)
“Boss, Ai Wa and the island owner A Min went to the US.”
After that day’s meeting, Shen II sent a message.
“Why did they go to the US?” Shen I was waiting for the signature of Shen Xinglan and asked curiously, “Did they get lost?”
The expression of Shen II was a little strange. “You guessed right…”
Their boat was so old that the engine had problems not long after they left the island. Fortunately, they had already entered the high seas and were rescued after drifting for two days.
“They were rescued by a shipping company in the US, so they are in the US now.”
Shen I said, “Boss, shall we go to check out that company?”
“No,” Shen Xinglan thought for a while and said, “have you ever met Yu Sihan’s subordinates?”
“Yes.” Shen II nodded his head. “They’re following them more closely than we are.”
Shen Xinglan raised the corner of his mouth and said, “Let them check it out, but have our men keep a close eye on them. Once Ai Wa and A Min come back, tell me immediately.”
Meanwhile, Yu Sihan also received the news.
“Did Shen Xinglan call back his subordinates?” He was a little surprised.
His subordinate bowed his head. “Yes, we are investigating the company in the US.”
“Continue to check.” Yu Sihan suddenly laughed and said, “Shen Xinglan is waiting for me to work myself to death for him!”
It was okay to do more. He could make it up to himself by holding Yaya several times…
The climate in City S this year was very abnormal. In mid-November, there was sleet and rain. It was cold and cloudy. A Miao, who hadn’t been sick in years, caught a cold.
“Sorry!” After she took some medicine, she handed the cup to Shen Xinglan. “We can’t go out to celebrate tonight.”
Today was her birthday. Shen Xinglan had arranged for them to go out alone for a romantic evening. But now…
“That’s all right. We will go out when you’re well.” Shen Xinglan touched her head and said, “Sleep!”
“Where is Yaya?” A Miao lay down. “Don’t let her get close to me later. I’m contagious.”
Shen Xinglan covered her with a quilt. “Don’t worry, she has fallen asleep in the next room. I won’t go to the company tomorrow. I’ll take her downstairs in the morning.”
“Hmm…” A Miao closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
Shen Xinglan went to the next room to see Yaya, who had her fist in her mouth and was sleeping like a piggy. He bowed his head and kissed his daughter’s face. Then he went back to the room and gently embraced A Miao. He watched her for a while before closing his eyes and sleeping.
“Ah, ah!” Yaya found that her mother did not hold her.
A Miao sat on the sofa on the other side and watched Shen Xinglan feed her daughter fruit.
“Babble?” Yaya stretched out her arms to A Miao again and found that her mother actually didn’t hold her. Then she curled her lips and cried.
Shen Xinglan handed her a big soft apple. Yaya got a whole apple for the first time. She nibbled it excitedly, and immediately forgot the fact that her mother didn’t hug her…
“Achoo!” A Miao’s face was covered with snot and tears.
Shen Xinglan, holding Yaya in his arms, dared not come close to A Miao and asked Little Demon at the door, “Why hasn’t the doctor come yet?”
“He’s already on the way.” Little Demon looked outside.
A Miao waved her hand. “No rush. I’m all right.”
After the doctor arrived, he checked A Miao’s temperature and put her on an IV, then A Miao fell into a groggy sleep. After five days of the IV, A Miao recovered from the illness. In the evening, Shen Xinglan had Little Demon and a maidservant take care of Yaya, and he took A Miao out to make up for her birthday.
“Are my clothes too heavy?” A Miao pulled her sweater.
Nobody would wear such heavy clothes when going to a Michelin restaurant…
“We aren’t going to a restaurant.” Shen Xinglan pulled her sleeve.
Although there was heat in the car, A Miao just recovered from the illness.
“Where are we going?” A Miao grinned. “To a hotel?”
Shen Xinglan winked. “You want me so much. Rest assured. I will satisfy you tonight!”
“…” She didn’t mean that!
As the car got farther and farther away, it gradually drove out of the city. A Miao looked out of the window and said, “We’re at the beach!”
“Hmm.” Shen Xinglan suddenly drove off of the highway and then drove to the beach.
A Miao couldn’t help frowning. It was very romantic on the beach, but it was winter now.
“Come on, get out of the car.” Shen Xinglan had parked his car and pulled the door open.
In winter, the wind was bitterly cold by the sea. A Miao was tightly held in Shen Xinglan’s arms. Just when she wanted to look up, a light flashed before her eyes.
“That’s…” There was a glasshouse beside the car.
Now all the lights inside were on, and the beach looked like a scene from daytime.
“It’s warm inside. Go in quickly.”
A Miao was almost held all the way inside by Shen Xinglan, and the warm air that hit her face made her pores open up comfortably.
“When did you do this?” A Miao kissed his face with force and then looked at the glasshouse.
There were roses, pink bulbs, and candles with the initials of their names. On the cabinet were all their pictures, which were taken from the time they began together until now.
“You set this up yourself!” She knew Shen Xinglan well, and he would never ask others to do this for her.
Shen Xinglan pulled up a chair. “Do you like it?”
“I like it!” A Miao sat down with a smile and saw the man lift the cover from the dining table. Several plates of dishes, which didn’t look delicious, were presented.
Shen Xinglan was apparently a little embarrassed. He glanced at her. “If it tastes good, it’s enough. Good-looking food is still eaten.”
“Hmm, everything you say is correct!” A Miao cut off a small piece of steak and put it in her mouth.
