”But you're shouting at me!”
”I apologize, I was wrong, I was wrong.”
”All the black roses in the garden are so expensive. I will feel sorry if I ruin them by driving in!”
”Good, good, good. Just hit the fountain, just fine.”
But what he didn't say was that the fountain had been built in accordance with the wishes she had written in her notebook when she was fifteen, and that he had spent his nights at the Academy of Architecture destroying one picture after another.
That was more precious than the Black Rose.
It was just that her liking had already changed from the natural multicolored stone fountain of a dream angel to a black rose at some point.
Instead of wanting to see his parents and brother, he wanted to curry favor with them. He wanted to buy clothes, but he also had to ask for his permission with a pleading tone. Why did this happen?
Shen Chuxin carefully selected a few dresses she liked and entered the fitting room. The zipper at the back stuck. She lifted the curtain and called for a shop assistant to help her.
The assistant, Yao, stood in the doorway, his face expressionless and respectful with lowered eyelids, so that the shop clerk would understand the difference between him and the woman in the dress interview.
Finally choosing two items, Shen Chu came out of the house. The shop assistant that went in to help praised her enthusiastically from behind, ”Miss Shen, you look the most beautiful while wearing these two items!”
Within a short week, Shen Yuxin's face had been known by almost everyone in the circle. Everything she had now was the life these girls dreamed of. It was a pity that Cinderella's luck was not something that all girls could encounter.
When she left, Shen Yuxin didn't have the bag hanging on her wrist.
After she left the store, the girl who went in to help returned to the fitting room. She then put the bag that Shen Chu had entrusted her with into her bag in the locker room.
When Chen Wenhua received the call from a strange girl, he thought that someone was making a mistake until the girl hurriedly said, ”Mr. Chen, it was Shen Chuxin who asked me to call you.”
Then, half an hour later, he arrived at the bus stop sign that the girl mentioned. When he saw a girl with short hair, the face of another girl with short hair suddenly flashed through his mind.
”Mr. Chen, this is what she wanted me to give you.” The girl didn't mention Shen Yuxin's name, she recognized him the moment she saw him.
Chen Wenhua took it over while thanking her, then gently smiled at the girl and asked, ”Does she have anything else to say?”
The girl shook her head and nodded again. She blushed slightly and looked at him timidly. ”She said she will come back tomorrow afternoon.”
Chen Wenhao thanked her again. Then, after seeing her back to her car with infatuation in his eyes, he drove the car to a secluded spot before stopping the car and opening the bag.
Inside was a lipstick and a small bottle of perfume. He carefully looked in the bottom of the bed and found what Shen Chuxin had given him: a broken toothbrush head, two short hair, and a note.
”Chen Wenhao, please help me.” He smiled wryly as his nose still hurt. He closed his eyes for a while before opening them again. There was a message below the note, ”Help me investigate the hospital where Zhuo Mengyao had miscarried seven years ago: Resurrection Hospital.”
He didn't need her to explain more about the paternity test. He had already guessed who did it and who did it. After stopping the car for a while, he turned around and went back to the Li family. There weren't any more media and reporters there, but he didn't send them back due to the Li family's two elders' safety.
It was very easy to find ChenChen's toothbrush and hair. Although Shen Chuxin cleaned up the house diligently, Grandma Li liked to collect ChenChen's hair, saying that it would be useful in the future — — Chen Wenhao guessed that what the old man said would be useful, it definitely wouldn't mean this.
After returning home, Shen Chuxin frowned as she searched around her room, but didn't find anything. She went downstairs to the car in the garage, but still found nothing. Of course, the news of her searching would reach Sheng Rui He's ears within a few minutes.
”Young Master, Miss seems to have lost something.” Uncle Zhou came up from downstairs and stood in front of the desk with his hands hanging down.
”She left her bag at Dior's flagship store.”
Uncle Zhou didn't marvel at how he found out about this. ”Then should I call someone to send it over or should I go over?”
”No need,” Sheng Rui He said flatly. ”When she thinks of it, she will find it herself.”
Uncle Zhou frowned and left the study room.
Shen Chuxin didn't like finding the thing she lost after it was reminded by someone else. That would make her feel like her memory was too poor and it would hurt her pride. But that was seven years ago — when she came out of the garage, she met Uncle Zhou who was still in deep thought.
”Uncle Zhou, did you see the bag I brought before I left this morning?”
She showed him the size. It was very small, because the space was not big, so it could only contain a few small items.
Uncle Zhou thought about the young master's expression just now and thought that he might not be able to tell her directly that he was at the flagship store. After thinking for a while, he comforted her, ”Maybe he didn't bring it back this afternoon? Miss, did you go anywhere in the middle of the journey? ”
Shen Duo's eyes instantly revealed an expression of realisation, ”I forgot, I must have fallen into Dio's flagship store!”
After the pleasant surprise passed, she walked upstairs with a dejected expression.
