Beijing-Hong Kong Rosemary

Chapter 111 You tie yourself in a bow and pack yourself up to send to him

Shen Guining only realized later that it wasn't ordinary incense; it must have been something lovers used for flirting.

They were already inseparable, and now they were even more deeply entangled, unable to be separated no matter what.

We did it twice more in bed.

Exhausted, she fell into a deep sleep.

Qu Yanci carried her to clean up and then moved her to the second bedroom to sleep.

Shen Guining lay down and snuggled against the pillow, murmuring softly, "Aci...hug me..."

Unconscious coquetry is the most effective way to charm people.

No one is better at fishing than her; she doesn't need to try at all.

Qu Yanci turned off the overhead light, reached out and pulled her into his arms, kissing her forehead.

Shen Guining liked to sleep with her head resting against his chest, which made her feel very safe.

She slept until 10 a.m. the next day, and was left alone in bed.

Recalling the scene of her pestering him for it last night, Shen Guining shrank into the blankets in embarrassment.

She was only wearing a loose nightgown, which was empty underneath. When she changed her clothes, I could see that her body was covered in marks, and her cheeks were flushed.

After washing up and tidying up in the master bedroom, she found her phone and texted Zhu Sixuan: "Sixuan, didn't you say that aromatherapy was for calming the nerves and helping with sleep?"

Zhu Sixuan: [Yes, how is it? Is it effective?]

Shen Guining sent a silent emoji.

Zhu Sixuan seemed to understand something. "One of them is a 'funny' one. You wouldn't be so lucky as to pick it on your first try, would you?"

Shen Guining: "..."

She didn't know why it was such a coincidence. The candle packaging didn't specify, and she assumed they were all the same, so she just randomly picked a rose-scented one.

Zhu Sixuan: [Isn't promoting harmony in that area and enhancing emotional exchange a good thing?]

Shen Guining was embarrassed to say that she and Qu Yanci were quite compatible in that area, and any further stimulation would be too much for them.

I read online that not all women have a particularly good experience in sex; there are many influencing factors, and finding a partner who is compatible with you both physically and mentally is a rare thing.

Shen Guining had to admit that she had always been comfortable.

However, it's inevitable to experience backaches and leg pains afterward.

Zhu Sixuan: [Why aren't you saying anything, Ningbao? How's your experience using it? Give me some feedback!]

Shen Guining: [What, do you still need to write product feedback?]

Zhu Sixuan: [No, I'm just looking into it. I'd like to try it next time.]

Shen Guining didn't want to delve into the topic any further. Remembering that Qu Yanci's birthday was next month, she needed to prepare a birthday gift in advance.

This is a problem. He doesn't lack anything normally, and it seems like he doesn't have anything he particularly likes.

She wanted to ask Zhu Sixuan for advice: "Any good birthday gift recommendations for my boyfriend?"

Zhu Sixuan: [Is Mr. Qu's birthday coming up?]

Shen Guining: [The 18th of next month.]

Zhu Sixuan: [That's easy! Just tie yourself up with a bow, pack yourself up, and give it to him. He'll definitely be happy.]

Just thinking about that scene made Shen Guining's ears burn. [I'm being serious!]

Zhu Sixuan: [I'm being serious, otherwise, could you think of a better gift?]

Shen Guining remained silent, leaned back on the bed, and looked up at the ceiling.

I went through all the things I could give as a gift in my mind, but I still couldn't find anything suitable.

In a daze, the door opened.

Qu Yanci walked in. "You're awake, why are you still lying down?"

Shen Guining sat up again and smoothed her disheveled hair.

Qu Yanci sat on the edge of the bed, holding her ankle to check, "Does your foot still hurt?"

Shen Guining shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."

She felt much better after applying the medicine yesterday. Qu Yanci rubbed her head, "Are you hungry? It's time for brunch now."

Shen Guining ordered without hesitation, "I want to eat roast goose, tofu pudding, and claypot rice."

"Shall we eat at the restaurant downstairs, or have it delivered to our room?"

"Let's eat in the room, I don't want to leave."

Qu Yanci followed her lead and used her phone to order food.

Shen Guining went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash up.

Half an hour later, the staff came to deliver the food.

The plates are placed on the table, covered with lids, and two sets of tableware are provided.

"Mr. Qu, Ms. Shen, please enjoy your meal. We won't disturb you any longer."

Shen Guining said "thank you," pulled out a chair, and sat down to eat.

I was exhausted last night and overslept this morning, so I'm starving.

Qu Yanci sat opposite her, slowly picked up his chopsticks, and asked the young girl, "Is there anything else in Hong Kong?"

Shen Guining took a sip of soup and said, "My uncle said that I need to go to the company this afternoon to sign a share transfer agreement."

Qu Yanci: "I'll have my lawyer go with you."

"Okay." Shen Guining knew nothing about company equity matters and needed a lawyer's help to review them; otherwise, she wouldn't dare to sign anything recklessly.

"But are you really planning to continue investing in Shen's projects?"

Knowing full well that the investment is risky, it's simply not worth it.

Qu Yanci said, "I am submitting this in my personal capacity."

The group's interests involve other senior shareholders, which makes it difficult for him to explain.

Shen Guining hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Qu Yanci knew what she wanted to say, "Don't worry, the projects I invest in won't lose money."

At most, the return on investment will be low.

He had to make sure the Shen family business wouldn't collapse; otherwise, no matter how many shares she acquired, they would just be useless numbers.
-
At 3 p.m., Shen Guining, accompanied by her lawyer, went to the Shen family to find Shen Honglin.

There were no problems with the transfer agreement, and the signing process went smoothly.

Shen Honglin's attitude towards Shen Guining has completely changed; he now greets her with a smile and speaks to her in a very polite manner.

He had really underestimated this niece before; he never expected that she could get Qu Yanci to go to such lengths.

Exchanging 10% of the shares for the Qu family's investment is a sure-fire way to make a profit.

He can still distinguish between immediate and long-term interests.

As long as the Shen family gets on the good side of the Qu family, the company's stock will surely rise.

Shen Guining didn't linger; she signed the agreement and left.

Shen Honglin asked her if she wanted a car to take her, but she refused outright.

As she was leaving, she ran into Shen Yue in the lobby on the first floor. Shen Yue stopped Shen Guining and said a few words to her.

"Cousin, although our cooperation didn't work out, I still want to remind you that men can never be trusted. When they love you, they'll give you anything, but once they stop loving you, you're nothing to them."

If this is the case even among blood relatives, one can only imagine what it means for others.

Shen Guining remained calm and said, "Thank you for reminding me, cousin. I have never thought of living off someone else's love."

From childhood to adulthood, she received very little love, and the little affection she had was completely eroded. From that time on, she knew that she had to rely on herself.

Shen Yue curled her palms.

She should have understood the saying, "Don't live off someone else's love."

She used to think that she had all the love of her parents and was an only child, so she could have whatever she wanted. She thought that everything in the Shen family would be hers sooner or later, so she never thought about being independent. Now reality has taught her a harsh lesson.

It turns out that no one can be trusted except oneself.

Shen Honglin and Tang Hui never intended to give the Shen family to her. They had already found a surrogate mother abroad last year, and unsurprisingly, it was a boy.
