Chapter 229 The Beautiful Vase vs. the Stiff and Rough Man (22)
The blanket bulged out in an arc.
He Suining likes to bury herself in the blankets when she sleeps; it's warm and cozy, a little world that belongs only to her.
Shen Tan held the kitten plush toy and slowly approached the bedside.
She sat quietly on the edge of the bed.
He glanced at the bulging blanket a few times, reached out and touched it, gently pulling it apart.
inside.
There was only one pillow placed upright.
Shen Tan's pupils contracted.
Suddenly, a noise came from behind him, and he was about to get up when a soft but strong hand grabbed his neck and pinned him down on his back.
Silently, it was pressed down onto the bedding.
"What are you doing outside in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" He Suining had already noticed someone loitering outside.
Qin Huaichen would never do such a thing.
At first, she thought it was Su Niannian, who was up to something bad.
So he took the opportunity to hide.
I never expected it to be Shen Tan.
However, no matter who it is, it's suspicious for them to break into her room in the middle of the night.
Shen Tan struggled for a moment.
Upon hearing her voice, he stopped struggling.
His face was full of smiles, but He Suining couldn't see them.
A hand that wasn't clasped was waving, and a kitten plush toy on it was swaying. "I brought you a kitten."
He Suining glanced at it in the moonlight.
It really is a kitten plush toy.
She felt no emotion whatsoever, only speechlessness.
Although I'm not quite sure why I'm not scared at all, I would say this is true for an ordinary girl.
Imagine a man barging into your room in the middle of the night—wouldn't you be terrified?
Of course, this excludes those who are obsessed with love.
He Suining let go of him.
Shen Tan got out of bed and turned around to face him.
Having been exposed, he showed no embarrassment whatsoever, instead smiling broadly. "I'm sorry, Sui Ning. I just wanted to surprise you and come in to see you. I didn't know you were awake; if I had, I would have knocked."
"..."
That's what I said.
You must have something wrong with your brain, bro.
He Suining looked up at him expressionlessly.
Shen Tan handed her the kitten plush toy.
She shook her head. "You can leave now, and you can take the kitten plush toy with you."
Shen Tan smiled.
He knew He Suining was angry.
They were speechless at his behavior.
He nodded, turned and left, saying, "Alright then, goodnight."
He Suining watched him walk out, then closed the door again and locked it.
I heard footsteps outside.
She went back to bed and lay down, muttering under her breath, "Crazy."
If it weren't for the sake of the production team...
She absolutely had to call the police.
Shen Tan returned to his room.
Turn on the light on the bedside table.
Under the warm light, he held the kitten plush toy and examined it closely. The kitten was strangely cute, and he reached out to touch it.
pity.
He tried for ages but only managed to grab one; he couldn't get the other half up no matter what he tried. Time was up again, and he had to come back.
"It's a pity your mother doesn't want you."
A sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
The doll he had just been holding tightly in his hand was ruthlessly thrown into the trash can.
The moonlight is bright and clear.
He was wide awake and went to sit on the balcony.
A faint light came from next door.
Shen Tan raised an eyebrow; Qin Huaichen was also awake.
Qin Huaichen was indeed not asleep.
He came to participate in a dating reality show, but he's very busy with work. His assistant isn't around, so he has to communicate online for many things.
I just finished processing the documents my assistant sent me.
Qin Huaichen then made a phone call.
An elderly man who sounded quite old answered the phone, and immediately greeted the caller with a smile, "Huaichen! What a rare guest! You haven't called me in ages. I thought you'd forgotten about me and your teacher's wife."
"No way, teacher." Qin Huaichen pursed his lips.
The person opposite him was his teacher from his school days. Because Qin Huaichen had excellent grades, the teacher took extra care of him.
Over time, the two developed feelings for each other.
Even after graduation, he would occasionally visit his teachers.
"Speak up, you wouldn't come here without a reason, there must be something you need." The teacher had figured out his thoughts perfectly.
Qin Huaichen chuckled sheepishly, "Teacher, it's like this. I have a younger sister who is very talented in painting. I remember you once told me that you have a good relationship with the painting master Chen Yuan, so..."
Intelligent people don't need to explain themselves too clearly; the other person will understand.
The teacher's smile didn't fade. "You little rascal, don't talk nonsense. If your teacher's wife hears this, she'll think I've done something to you. Chen Yuan is your teacher's wife's best friend; they're very close, and she often comes to our house for dinner."
"Look, he went out to play mahjong late at night and hasn't come back yet, oh dear."
Although the teacher was complaining.
But Qin Huaichen could detect the teacher's strong sense of boasting.
Qin Huaichen lowered his eyes, a hint of envy in them.
Back in college, he greatly envied his teacher for having a stable family. The couple had a harmonious relationship, and their children were filial and intelligent.
Eating here always feels warm and welcoming.
that time.
It was also the first time Qin Huaichen realized that there was such a big difference in atmosphere between a loving family and a loveless family.
but.
The teacher is indeed someone to be proud of, because the most precious thing is that for so long, the person beside you has always been the same person.
"so."
The teacher chatted with him for a few minutes before getting down to business. "Find a time to invite her to our house for dinner. I'll have your teacher's wife call Chen Yuan over, but I can't guarantee that Chen Yuan will like your sister. After all, Chen Yuan is a master now, and she has very high standards."
To prevent Qin Huaichen from misunderstanding, the teacher made a point of explaining.
Qin Huaichen understood perfectly.
But then he remembered the paintings He Suining had drawn, and took the painting out of his pocket. "Teacher, I believe in my sister. She painted another picture today. I'll take a picture of it later and you can show it to Teacher Chen Yuan."
"well."
After hanging up the phone.
Qin Huaichen made a second call without stopping.
He had his assistant find the phone number; it belonged to the amusement park owner.
An assistant could have done it.
After thinking about it, he decided to do it himself.
After the call was connected, Qin Huaichen identified himself, and the other party's tone became respectful after confirming his identity.
He was just a small business owner at the amusement park.
He might be seen as a big boss by ordinary people, but he knows very well that in the eyes of publicly listed companies and the wealthy elites of high society, he is nothing more than a toy.
He can't afford to offend anyone.
Qin Huaichen explained his purpose.
The shop owner, surprised by the small matter, chuckled and said, "Look at you, it's nothing. The doll you wanted is part of a series, a total of 16 kitten dolls. Here's what I'll do: I'll send you the complete, unopened set of kitten dolls so you can give them to your sister; she'll definitely love them more."
