Chapter 414: Chapter 414 The Best Gift Chapter 414: Chapter 414 The Best Gift “Forget it!”

Shen Zhaozhao knew his temperament so she didn’t push it.

“Come in,” Sheng Chuyi said, taking her suitcase.

Mr. Sheng had taken Qin Suxin and Little Ali to a cocktail party, leaving only Sheng Chuyi at home.

In the past two years, Sheng Yan Cheng’s business had grown substantially, and his social commitments had increased accordingly.

But Sheng Chuyi didn’t like such bustle and seldom attended.

“Have you eaten?” Sheng Chuyi asked.

“Not yet.” She had come straight to the Sheng Family home by taxi from the high-speed train station, with no time for food.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you out for dinner,” Sheng Chuyi said, picking up his car keys and holding Shen Zhaozhao’s hand as they walked outside.

After dinner, it was still early.

“Let’s go watch a movie!” Shen Zhaozhao suddenly suggested.

Sheng Chuyi glanced at her and agreed.

The midnight cinema was almost empty; the two of them sat in the very center, feeling as if they had the whole place to themselves.

By the time the movie ended, it was nearly midnight, with only a few scattered people leaving the theater.

Walking at the back, Shen Zhaozhao suddenly grabbed Sheng Chuyi’s wrist just as they were about to leave.

Sheng Chuyi stopped and looked at her.

She then exerted force suddenly, pushing him towards the wall. Rising on her toes, she quickly kissed him on the lips, saying, “Happy Birthday, Sheng Chuyi!”

The latter froze for a moment, then smiled, pulled her into his arms, and said, “Happy birthday, Shen Zhaozhao!” He finished the sentence, bent down, and sealed her lips with his.

They only parted when the sound of the cleaning lady pushing the door to enter was heard at the entrance.

They quickly separated.

Looking at each other, they couldn’t help but laugh.

Sheng Chuyi took her hand again, their fingers interlocking as they walked out of the cinema.

The midnight city, with its twinkling neon lights, had shed the noise of the daytime, imbuing a unique sense of tranquility and composure.

Standing at the street corner, Shen Zhaozhao looked up at Sheng Chuyi in front of her and said, “This is the birthday present I’m giving you this year. What do you think, are you happy?” Although she didn’t prepare a physical gift, she had brought herself to him.

“Shen Zhaozhao, I’m very happy!”

Sheng Chuyi tightened his grip on her fingers, holding her hand firmly in his and said, “This is the best gift I’ve ever received!”

“As long as you’re happy,” Shen Zhaozhao replied with a laugh, her effort to come all this way had not been in vain.

“By the way, do you remember the CET-4 pass request you owe me?” Her urgency to come back wasn’t just for celebrating his birthday with him.

Sheng Chuyi: “What do you want?” Whatever she wanted, he was ready to agree.

Shen Zhaozhao said with a giggly smile, “I’ve decided, my request is that we spend every birthday together from now on.” In truth, up until the moment she knocked on the door, she was still pondering what to ask for upon seeing him.

All the way there, she had thought of many possibilities, including ones she had previously settled on.

But at this moment, that was her only request.

“Okay!” Sheng Chuyi nodded, his eyes brimming with warmth.

After getting in the car, Sheng Chuyi drove straight back to the rented house near the school.

“Aren’t we going back to the Sheng Family home?” Shen Zhaozhao asked on the way.

Sheng Chuyi: “It’s too late, I don’t want to disturb the others.”

“Oh!” Shen Zhaozhao didn’t think much of it; to her, it was all the same.

When the two returned to the rented house and closed the door behind them, Shen Zhaozhao was immediately pinned against it by Sheng Chuyi. She looked up, but before she could speak, a torrential kiss descended upon her.
