Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 217: The Delicate Cousin Girl vs. the Upright and Brave Cousin (11)

After that day, Shen Shuyi didn't see Zhou Qian for a long time.

However, Zhou Xuanmin often came to visit while Shen Shan was still in the mansion. He thought that Shen Shan would leave a large sum of money for him before leaving the General's Mansion, and told him to study hard for the imperial examinations and not to worry about money when it came to gatherings and making friends.

But Shen Shan left home and took the boat back to Yuhang without speaking a word to him alone!

Cui felt something was wrong and quickly found her son. She got straight to the point, "How are you and Shen Shuyi doing recently?"

"She's hiding from me." Zhou Xuanmin frowned.

"How is this possible? That girl has always liked to follow you around. She must be looking forward to marrying you when she comes back this time."

"Wen Jing, did you ignore her at the beginning and she is throwing a tantrum?"

Zhou Xuanmin felt a headache, "How should I know? Mother, you know I don't like her. How can I manage the harem in the future if she falls down at the slightest gust of wind?"

"Mother knows everything. Mother is not happy either. She is so weak that she cannot give birth to a child. But her father is rich. He is the richest man in Jiangnan and a royal merchant. Marrying her will be very helpful to your career in the future."

"Your grandfather and his men were all honest officials. There is not a single bit of profit in the entire General's Mansion. If..."

"Mom, please stop talking. I understand."

Cui gave him a warning look and asked, "Did you secretly meet with Princess Huiji on the day of the Shangsi Festival?"

Seeing his eyes flicker, Cui sighed.

"How can you be so careless? If your grandparents knew about this, it would be hard to resolve. Be careful at the peony banquet hosted by the queen in three days, and don't let Shen Shuyi see anything."

Zhou Xuanmin nodded. He was not worried about this. Shen Shuyi was in such poor health anyway, she would probably go to rest soon after the show started, and then he would be able to meet the princess.

Thinking of the princess leaning against him on the cruise ship, his Adam's apple rolled.
The thought of him secretly meeting the princess in the presence of his fiancée made him feel very excited.
……

The day before the Peony Banquet, Shen Shuyi finally saw Zhou Qian, who had not returned for a long time, at a family dinner. Old Madam Zhou told him to come back for dinner no matter how busy he was, and the family held a birthday party for him.

Zhou Qian didn't celebrate his birthday, he just remembered the kindness of his elders and hurried back.

Shen Shuyi looked up at the man at the table, and her gaze happened to meet his. The man quickly looked away.

A slight smile appeared on her lips.

Hiding from her.

It's interesting that he is avoiding her even though he has 50% favorability.

Zhou Qian just took a casual glance, but saw that his little cousin's cheeks were flushed due to drinking, beautiful and charming.

He looked away, but saw from the corner of his eye that she was still looking at him, her eyes seemed to have something to say.

After the banquet, Zhou Qian returned to his room, only to see his cousin waiting outside the corridor.

"Cousin, why are you here?"

Shen Shuyi presented the long red sandalwood box in her hand, her eyes curved, "Cousin, today is your birthday, I prepared a birthday gift for you."

"Thank you, cousin. How can I let you give me a gift?" Zhou Qian really didn't expect that this cousin who was so much younger than him would think of this.

"Yes!" Shen Shuyi stepped forward, "Cousin, please take it. I really can't carry it anymore."

"I feel that I have been getting healthier recently. To thank my cousin for helping me exercise, a gift is too light." Zhou Qian opened the box and saw that there was a longbow inside.

He looked up at Shen Shuyi in surprise and saw her smiling and saying.

"This is the Shenbi bow that I specially asked a master to make. It is made of mountain mulberry wood, sandalwood, iron as the barrel, steel as the trigger, hemp rope as the ties, and silk as the strings. It can shoot a hundred steps and penetrate multiple layers of armor!"

Zhou Qian looked at the divine bow that exuded a sandalwood luster, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

Shen Shuyi looked at the divine arm bow with burning eyes, and asked with a smile, "Does cousin like it?"

"I like it." Zhou Qian couldn't help but be honest. There were not many things that interested him. He didn't like fine wine or beautiful women, but he loved the Fiery Horse Bow.

This birthday gift really touched his heart.

"If you like it, it's yours." Shen Shuyi smiled.

Zhou Qian felt that the divine bow was a little hot, "Cousin, this is too expensive."

"As long as my cousin likes it, it's worth spending any amount of money!" Shen Shuyi has a cute little face, and looks like a person who is simply wealthy.

Zhou Qian laughed out loud and felt his cheeks getting hot.

Seeing that he was stunned, Shen Shuyi continued, "Don't worry, cousin, accept it. I have already made it clear with my grandmother. My grandmother was very pleased to see that I prepared a birthday gift for you. She said that I am a good girl who returns the favor!"

"Thank you, cousin." Zhou Qian was flattered. He had never received such an expensive and thoughtful gift since he was a child.

That day Zhou Qian spent the whole day in the martial arts training ground with the magic bow, and he never missed a shot. Soon everyone in the mansion knew that Shen Shuyi had given his cousin a magic bow.

This was certainly not Zhou Qian's intention to show off. It was really that Old Madam Zhou liked lively occasions and liked to see children living in harmony, so she mentioned it when her daughter-in-law came to pay her respects.

When Cui learned about this, she immediately told her son, and Zhou Xuanmin stood there in a daze.

Sister Zhou Ningxiang was puzzled, "Why would my cousin give a gift to my cousin? I thought she spent so much money on the street to buy the most expensive inkstone in Luoyang City for my brother!"

Zhou Xuanmin found it irritating and felt mixed emotions.

What is going on? Shen Shuyi has really changed this time when he came to Luoyang!
……

On the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Shen Shuyi also received an invitation, just like in her previous life.

Almost all the unmarried sons and daughters of noble families in Luoyang City were invited by the Queen to enter the palace to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet. It was also at this Hundred Flowers Banquet that the original owner was schemed by Princess Chu Huiji to take Chinese medicine and lost her virginity. Later, she was tragically broken off the engagement and was assassinated and buried at the bottom of the river.

Shen Shuyi attended the banquet in a crabapple-colored long dress. Her black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin. Her makeup was light, but she was already the most charming spring color in the world.

With eyebrows like distant ink, eyes like autumn water and seductive cherry lips, such a beauty is even more stunning than the princess of the royal family.

After getting on the carriage, 66, who had transformed into a little white cat, lay on her lap, wagging his tail and chatting about gossip.

[Host, Zhou Xuanmin was furious when he learned that you gave Zhou Qian the divine bow but didn't prepare any gifts for him.]
Shen Shuyi raised her hand and gently poked the little white cat's head, "He is eating soft rice and pretending to be a hypocrite. I can't make him angry to death."

[Host, there is more good news! Zhou Qian's favorability towards you has increased a lot, to 58%!]
Shen Shuyi laughed, so a sharp weapon could win his heart more than a soft finger.

[Come on, once your plan is completed, you can cancel the engagement after the Peony Flower Banquet. By then, Zhou Qian will have nothing to worry about. You will definitely break through the 60% favorability and successfully conceive a baby!]
[Host, 66 has arranged everything for you. Princess Huiji will definitely suffer the consequences of her own actions. 66 will go offline to continue optimization and upgrade.]
Shen Shuyi just nodded. For some reason, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
