83: Chapter 83 Xiao Ran Falls for Him!
"This is great. What my trendy brand lacks most right now is fame."
"I personally oversee the quality of all the clothes; every single item can even be traced back via a QR code."
"I guarantee that every single product will be free of any quality issues."
In her urgency, Lin Manzhi immediately scrambled up in excitement.
She even began to talk incessantly about her entrepreneurial history.
But how could Shen Zhou listen to any of this? His gaze was fixed straight ahead.
It was only then that Lin Manzhi snapped back to reality.
She bit her lower lip tightly.
She didn't shyly cover her chest like other young girls.
Instead, she pinned Shen Zhou down like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
The two of them tossed and turned for a long time, until night fell.
Only then did a famished Lin Manzhi reluctantly part ways with Shen Zhou.
"Shen Zhou, you must remember to contact me again."
"Don't worry, I'll finish handling everything on my end."
Lin Manzhi stood by the roadside, waving continuously.
Watching the departing back of the BMW, she felt very at peace inside.
She had never imagined she could have a deeper possibility with Shen Zhou.
The current connection was already enough for her.
She wasn't worthy of Shen Zhou, but she could become a part of Shen Zhou's business empire.
In this way, she could truly do what she loved.
Moreover, she would no longer need to compromise herself to find connections or build relationships.
...
On the other side, Shen Zhou grabbed a quick bite to eat and soon returned to Ziyu Mansion.
Just as he pushed open the door, he saw Chen Xiaoran walking out wearing a bright white bathrobe.
"Brother, you're finally willing to come back."
Chen Xiaoran stared at Shen Zhou with watery eyes.
"Xiaoran, I..."
Shen Zhou was about to say a few words of comfort.
But Chen Xiaoran used her right hand to block his mouth.
"Brother, you don't need to say anything, I understand. I've never demanded to possess you completely."
"I only hope you don't forget me."
Da da da!
After saying that, Chen Xiaoran quickly ran into the bedroom in her little pink slippers.
Shen Zhou walked in with a chuckle.
At first glance, he saw a bashful Chen Xiaoran lying on the bed.
By this time, she had already untied her bathrobe and changed into a dark green silk nightgown.
The edges of the nightgown were heavily trimmed with lace, and there were faint touches of gauze as accents.
Her face had long since turned a deep shade of red, and her beautiful eyes were fixed intently on Shen Zhou.
Under the slightly dim lighting, the sunny aura around Chen Xiaoran was gone, replaced by a hazy, half-hidden temptation.
"Xiaoran, you really have grown up quite a bit."
Shen Zhou nodded with some emotion and tossed his jacket onto the floor.
He walked slowly toward Chen Xiaoran and said,
"Xiaoran, you're becoming more and more sexy."
Shen Zhou praised her sincerely.
"Then does Brother like me like this? I have many more outfits I haven't worn for you yet."
Chen Xiaoran became very happy.
She had picked out this nightgown with great effort.
Moreover, she had guessed there was a high probability Shen Zhou would return today, so she had prepared meticulously.
At this moment, Chen Xiaoran slightly pulled down one side of her nightgown.
A white and translucent shoulder was exposed to the air.
The snow-white skin paired with her smooth black hair filled the air with a sensual fragrance.
Under the light, her face appeared even more charming.
Her eyes rippled like a pool of spring water.
A soul-stirring charm washed over him.
Beneath the nightgown, her alluring figure was faintly visible.
Her long legs were slightly crossed.
Seeing all this, Shen Zhou only felt his internal body temperature rising wildly.
"Xiaoran, you are exceptionally charming today. You're like a little vixen!"
Shen Zhou slowly stepped forward.
In an instant, all the lights in the room went out.
Time flew by, and soon it was the next morning.
The sleeping Shen Zhou frowned slightly; he felt his nose itching constantly.
Opening his eyes, he found Chen Xiaoran holding a strand of hair, sweeping it back and forth across his nose.
"Xiaoran, why aren't you resting? You were so tired last night, where do you get all this energy?"
Shen Zhou smiled helplessly, reached out to gently grab her soft hands, and kneaded them lightly.
"Hmph, you have the nerve to say that. You didn't show me any mercy at all."
"Now my whole body aches, and I've been awake for a while."
Chen Xiaoran couldn't help but pout slightly.
Shen Zhou had been exceptionally wild last night. The two of them had gone on for a very long time, and the number of rounds had broken all previous records.
If Chen Xiaoran hadn't gritted her teeth and persevered, she might have fainted on the spot last night.
However, even so, her heart was filled more with joy than anything else.
Because from Shen Zhou's wild actions, she could deeply feel his affection for her.
This was also one of the important guarantees for the continuation of her relationship with Shen Zhou.
"Xiaoran, didn't you like it quite a bit last night too?"
"Should I be gentler in the future?"
Shen Zhou teased her on purpose.
"I don't want that!"
Chen Xiaoran blurted out subconsciously.
But she soon saw the cunning glint in Shen Zhou's eyes. She couldn't help but snort softly, curling her right fist to lightly thump Shen Zhou's chest.
"You're just terrible, you only know how to bully me every day!"
Hearing this, Shen Zhou laughed loudly and pulled Chen Xiaoran into his arms.
Lying in that sturdy embrace, the scene of Shen Zhou and Lin Manzhi walking together appeared in Chen Xiaoran's mind again.
But this time, she didn't feel panicked at all.
At the same time, the system's notification sounded in Shen Zhou's mind.
[Ding!]
[Every relationship needs careful nurturing, and every flower needs timely attention. Please value every relationship, Host.]
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully resolving the relationship crisis with Chen Xiaoran.]
[Task Reward: One Special Consumption Voucher.]
[Special Consumption Voucher: Please spend 200 million within the next month. Upon completion, you will receive a mysterious grand prize.]
Seeing this, Shen Zhou was instantly stunned.
"System bro, are you worried I'm not spending money fast enough?"
"But then again, my total assets have already exceeded 600 million."
"It's time to indulge in some luxury."
But thinking of this, he even felt a bit of a headache.
Whether it was cars or houses, he already had enough.
He couldn't just buy an entire building every time he saw a real estate development.
And he had already owned quite a few luxury cars.
Plus, with the supercar he just purchased, he didn't have any new targets for the time being.
However, for the sake of the final surprise grand prize, Shen Zhou could only start planning secretly.
Soon, he simply tossed these annoying matters to the back of his mind and called to order a table full of breakfast.
