Chapter 167 Birthday Wish
When the two of them went to take a shower together, Ye Zhenzhen noticed the numerous scars on Wen Baijing's body. Tears welled up in her eyes. She squatted down and gently touched the scars on Wen Baijing's calves with her fingertips. Her throat seemed to be strangled and her heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp knife. She closed her eyes for a long time and could not speak.
Her soul was not stable, swaying from side to side in her body. She was distracted for a moment and asked stupidly, "Am I really worthy of this?"
Wen Baijing held up her pale face and said in a rock-hard voice, "Zhenzhen, I think it's worth it. I lost you before, and I don't want to lose you again."
"During the past few years of separation, I have realized one thing: life is too long. Without you by my side, everything seems meaningless."
"I never promised you anything. You have waited for me for these years. Is it worth it?"
Ye Zhenzhen's face was covered with tear stains, and she nodded heavily: "Of course it's worth it."
She drooped her eyelashes, her throat aching and tight: "But I feel bad that you are injured like this."
Wen Baijing smiled with half of his mouth raised: "Don't cry, you look better when you smile."
Ye Zhenzhen raised her hand, stroked the dark corners of his mouth, and tried her best to force a smile.
After taking a shower, she used a bath towel to gently dry the moisture on Wen Baijing's wounds, and then took out iodine to wipe the wounds on Wen Baijing's back and legs.
Ye Zhenzhen helped Wen Baijing put on his pajamas, walked up to him, and considerately tied the belt for him.
Wen Baijing was like a little baby, letting her do whatever she wanted, smiling a little smugly: "Didn't you want to break up with me in the beginning? Didn't you want to throw away the bathrobe?"
Everything about him was carefully kept, and Ye Zhenzhen was reluctant to throw it away. The items he used accompanied Ye Zhenzhen through countless days and nights.
Every time I come home exhausted and see those things, it feels as if he is still by my side.
Ye Zhenzhen supported his arm, stood on tiptoe, and kissed the corner of his purple mouth lightly: "Well, I can't bear to part with it. I thought that as long as these items are still there, you can still use them when you come back."
She had waited for this day for more than three years and finally got her wish.
Wen Baijing's eyes were full of stars, and his expression was more relaxed than ever before. "Well, thank you for waiting for me for so many years."
Ye Zhenzhen smiled faintly: "Thank you for taking so many years to come back to me."
Looking around, the furnishings in the room remain the same as they have been for many years, and the owner of the room has also not changed for many years. Time no longer exists here, only true love remains forever.
Her stomach growled in protest, so Ye Zhenzhen let go of his arm and walked briskly towards the kitchen.
As she was used to having a light dinner, she had just washed the rice and was ready to cook the porridge again.
A black Harry Winston jewelry box was handed to her.
Ye Zhenzhen was distracted for a moment and did not take it immediately.
Wen Baijing's expression was as gentle as water: "Open it and take a look."
Ye Zhenzhen turned to look at him, thought for a moment, took the jewelry box, and slowly opened it.
The Colombian emerald and diamond earrings lay quietly in the box. The teardrop-shaped emerald was surrounded by a circle of leaf-shaped diamonds.
It has to be said that emeralds and diamonds are a gorgeous combination.
Ye Zhenzhen closed the jewelry box and asked casually, "How much?"
Wen Baijing reached out and gathered her hair behind her, and said in a tender voice, "Don't you like it?"
"I bought it at Christie's auction. Xiao Zhu went to Hong Kong to pick it up two days ago. It cost a little over three hundred yuan."
Ye Zhenzhen's hands were shaking so badly that she could barely hold the baby. She turned around and looked directly at Wen Baijing, her voice shaking even more than her hands: "You said yesterday that you might end up with nothing. How can I support you if you spend money like this?"
Wen Baijing lifted her chin and asked, "Do you regret saying you'll support me?"
Ye Zhenzhen wiped the sweat off her face and felt like crying. She had boasted the day before that she was supporting Wen Baijing. She really overestimated her own abilities. "Can I take back what I said yesterday? If you keep spending money like this, even if you sell me off, it won't be enough."
Wen Baijing clamped her jaw and tapped her dimple with his index finger: "It's too late to regret."
A Taihang Mountain was pressing down on her. Ye Zhenzhen pursed her lips and said, "How about we discuss this further?"
Wen Baijing said seriously: "I remember teaching you that businessmen must be honest."
Ye Zhenzhen casually placed the jewelry box on the table next to the sink, her expression extremely serious, her tone as gentle as the moonlight: "What I want most is you. Compared to you, these are not important at all."
Wen Baijing looked at her, with soft waves floating in his eyes, and algae and waterweeds growing under his eyes, as if to entangle her as well.
Wen Baijing held her in his arms and promised in her ear: "No matter what happens in the future, we will never be separated again. You are the one I want most."
"Does it still hurt?"
"I'm a little hungry. I want to drink the porridge that Zhenzhen cooked."
.......
The moonlight was bright, and the street lights and floor lamps downstairs were lit up again. The glass windows were like big screens, broadcasting the colorful daily life 24 hours a day. Now, their side also blended into the night of thousands of lights in Yuncheng.
Christmas Eve 2018.
The commercial street has long been hung with Christmas decorations. Before you even set foot on the street, your eyes are wrapped in the white snow. Santa Claus, riding on a reindeer, rushes towards passers-by with colorful gift boxes in his hands.
Nowadays, on Christmas Eve, all major shopping malls are open 24 hours a day.
Ye Zhenzhen and Zhongli were extremely busy. They had a clear division of labor. Zhongli went to Intime to help, while Ye Zhenzhen stayed in the street shop.
Taking advantage of the evening when it was not too busy, Ye Zhenzhen climbed to the second floor. Beside her was an island rack full of clothes and a pair of high-definition fill lights. She turned on her phone and started the live broadcast time with a smile.
Everyone went to celebrate the festival, so there were not many customers in the live broadcast room, but there were still many fans waiting. With the mentality of selling as many pieces as possible, Ye Zhenzhen was in high spirits and patiently explained the fabrics of the clothes, occasionally picking up her phone to read the barrage of messages.
Wen Baijing came to the store at some point and leaned quietly on the sofa, with his phone screen fixed on Ye Zhenzhen's live broadcast room, but his eyes were fixed on the spotlight not far away.
He was in a daze at an inappropriate time. Now, this generous and calm woman was becoming more and more dazzling. A veil floated in Wen Baijing's eyes, and when he pushed aside the layers of veil, memories and reality overlapped, as if in a dream.
The gentle female voice was still speaking, and the sweetness in her voice had not changed.
"Oh, everyone should be asking about clothes, why are you all asking about rings..."
“I don’t really know how much.”
Wen Baijing collected his thoughts and returned his gaze to Ye Zhenzhen's face. She had a sweet smile on her face, a faint blush on her cheeks, and she shyly raised her hand to cover her lips.
She is as thin-skinned as she was back then.
Wen Baijing lowered his head to look at his phone.
Many fans on the screen were asking, the anchor's ring is so shiny, what brand is it, how many carats, is it a gift from her husband, where did she find a good husband...
He raised his head again, and Ye Zhenzhen's shy eyes drifted to his face. When their eyes met, a tender smile appeared on his lips.
Across the spotlight, Ye Zhenzhen suddenly ran towards him, hugged his neck with a smile, pecked him lightly on the lips, and said softly: "Hubby, you have worked hard, are you tired?"
"Not tired, my Zhenzhen is getting better and better."
Wen Baijing embraced her and wanted to kiss her moist and charming lips.
"Just wait for me, I'll make money to support you." Ye Zhenzhen pushed his hand away, looked back at him tenderly, and walked quickly towards the spotlight.
Wen Baijing's arm was still suspended in the air, and finally, he smiled and retracted his arm.
As it was almost midnight, he suddenly had an idea and came up with a plan. He lowered his head and tapped a few times on the screen of his mobile phone.
Ye Zhenzhen was suddenly stunned under the spotlight and was dumbfounded for a moment.
Wen Baijing raised his eyes, with a look of pride in his eyes after the prank was successful.
"You're so annoying. Why are you doing this for no reason at the carnival? And you get so many of them at once."
“Do you know how hard it is to make money…”
Worried that he would continue to give gifts, Ye Zhenzhen felt sorry for the money so she had to turn off the live broadcast. She angrily took off her clothes, rolled them up and threw them at him.
Ye Zhenzhen walked towards him, shaking his arm, and coquettishly advised him in a roundabout way, "Hubby, please be merciful. You just clicked your fingers a few times and lost more than ten thousand."
Wen Baijing took the initiative to admit his mistake and apologized in a low voice: "Okay, I won't dare to do it again." He took her to sit between his legs, hugged her lightly, and lowered his head to explore her lips.
"I worked hard all night and didn't make much money, but you..."
Ye Zhenzhen stretched out her hand to push him, dodging here and there for a while, then looking at Wen Baijing's humble appearance, her little anger instantly disappeared, and she couldn't help but smile. She put her hands on his shoulders, slowly closed her eyes, and forgot herself for a moment, kissing him passionately.
Her hand slid down unruly, and Wen Baijing stopped her from taking any further action. He was reluctant to stop the passionate kiss and responded to her enthusiasm crazily.
Ye Zhenzhen was fully engaged, licking and kissing his earlobe, her tender voice full of longing: "Hubby, I want..."
Wen Baijing held her restless waist tightly, his breathing a little disordered, he clenched his teeth and whispered: "Be obedient, we'll talk when we get home."
Ye Zhenzhen moaned softly in his ear and her hand slid to the belt around his waist.
Wen Baijing was so aroused by her that he could hardly control himself and his rationality was about to collapse.
The lights on the second floor suddenly went out for a moment.
The scent of flowers fills the air.
The lights came on again, Ye Zhenzhen opened her eyes in a trance and looked back subconsciously.
"Happy birthday!"
I don't know when the crowd behind me was full of people, Ye Mao, Wang You, Lu Yu, Zhong Li, Lawyer Wu, Xiao Zhu, and a few shop assistants...
Everyone came over pushing cakes. Zhongli and Lu Yu pulled a silver cart together, with 999 pink snow mountains on it.
Everyone sang the birthday song together, the joyful singing spread all around, the room was full of laughter and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a second, then came back to her senses and hurriedly got up from Wen Baijing's lap with a red face.
She looked at Wen Baijing with a bit of shame and anger, blaming him for not telling her in advance. This surprise almost turned into a fright. She subconsciously covered her mouth, her eyebrows curved with laughter, and she couldn't stand steadily.
Wen Baijing held her shoulders and whispered to her amid the laughter in the room, "Make a wish."
Ye Zhenzhen closed her eyes, smiled slightly, clasped her hands in front of her, and made a sweet wish.
Just opened my eyes and blew out the candle.
Lu Yu looked gossipy: "What wish did you make?"
Zhongli patted him and said, "You can't speak your wishes out loud." Then he said to Ye Zhenzhen, "Make a bigger wish! For example, our income will exceed five million next year."
Lu Yu teased, "How much money do you need to be content, you money-grubber? Ye Zhenzhen's wish must be related to Wen Baijing."
Zhongli said unhappily, "Who stipulated that Ye Zhenzhen's wish must be related to Wen Baijing?"
Lu Yu hugged her and coaxed her: "I'm talking nonsense, don't be angry."
Wang You squeezed in front of her and said, "Sister, I hope your wish will come true soon."
Wen Baijing put his arm around her shoulders and asked in her ear, neither loud nor soft, "Do you want me to help you realize your wish?"
Ye Zhenzhen's face suddenly turned red as liver color, and she couldn't stop smiling. She reached out and pinched him without saying anything.
"Give me a kiss..."
"Yes, give me a kiss..."
I don't know who proposed it loudly, and everyone followed suit.
Ye Zhenzhen's face flushed instantly, and she was a little at a loss. Wen Baijing embraced her and kissed her affectionately, as mellow as strong wine.
Like being slightly tipsy after drinking wine.
The sound of people's funny voices filled her ears. Ye Zhenzhen closed her eyes, kissed his lips, and was intoxicated by his crazy kiss.
Under the gaze of everyone, Wen Baijing transferred the 20% equity held by Lu Yu to Ye Zhenzhen, and she and Lu Yu signed a proxy holding agreement for Zhichu’s equity.
After cutting the cake, everyone went home.
In Yuncheng, the snow began to accumulate at night, and then fell piece by piece. They held hands and finally saw each other's white hair. She was the moonlight of the past, and he was the spring breeze and the pen.
The moonlight shone on the snow, and the dust did not move. They stood on the snow, raised their heads together, and there were a few wisps of red dodder in their eyes.
On the way home, the Rolls-Royce Phantom drove through the brightly lit night, shuttling through the bustling and splendor of Cloud City.
Ye Zhenzhen held the equity holding agreement in her hand, leaning on Wen Baijing's shoulder, while colorful lights flashed outside the window.
Wen Baijing bent down and kissed her hair: "Do you like this birthday gift?"
"Wen Baijing, in comparison, I like you more."
"Honey, can you increase my credit limit?"
"see your performance."
"How do you want me to behave?"
As he spoke, Wen Baijing's passionate kisses came down on her all over. Ye Zhenzhen dodged left and right with a smile.
Wen Baijing bit her ear and said, "Your birthday wish still requires my cooperation, so can the amount be increased a little?"
Ye Zhenzhen lay in his arms and complained sweetly: "How can you be such a rogue?"
The colorful lights flowed on her face. She glanced out of the car window and saw a little girl riding an electric scooter, wearing simple clothes and with a beautiful smile, passing by her.
