I'm in love

In the luxuriously decorated hotel, Qu Lianjie brought Fan Shengmei to the presidential suite.

As soon as she entered the room, Fan Shengmei was shocked by the luxurious decoration in front of her. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, this place is so beautiful!"

Qu Lianjie smiled and said proudly, "How is it? Isn't it beautiful? As long as you like it, we can come to places like this often in the future." Fan Shengmei was very happy to hear this, nodded and said, "It's really beautiful."

Perhaps because of the tiredness from the journey, Qu Lianjie said to Fan Shengmei with concern: "You must be tired, go take a shower and relax." Fan Shengmei smiled and agreed, then turned and walked into the bathroom.

When she walked to the sink, she suddenly found a beautiful gift box there. Driven by curiosity, she gently opened the box, and inside was a bright red dress. At that moment, Fan Shengmei's eyes lit up, and she couldn't suppress her inner joy, thinking, is this the legendary romance and surprise?

Fan Shengmei held the red dress tightly in her hands, her mind full of happy fantasies. She felt as if she was in a fairy tale, and this dress was a gift from the prince to the princess. So, she happily took the dress and walked into the shower room, ready to enjoy this wonderful moment.

After taking a shower, Fan Shengmei, wearing a simple yet elegant dress, came to the open-air balcony to enjoy the night view. The breeze gently brushed her wet hair, bringing a touch of coolness and comfort.

Qu Lianjie followed closely behind, his eyes sparkling with admiration: "My vision is right, you look stunning in this dress!"

Fan Shengmei's lips slightly raised, but her eyes revealed a hint of helplessness. She said: "Men always complain that women are too pretentious, and don't understand why they pay so much attention to details and pursue perfection." Then, she sighed softly and continued: "They also don't understand why we have a special liking for roses. In fact, what we pursue is just the feeling of being cherished and cared for."

After hearing this, Qu Lianjie smiled and shook his head, indicating that he did not agree with this statement. He looked at Fan Shengmei seriously and said, "That is only what men who do not know how to appreciate women say. Women today are under too much pressure and their lives are extremely difficult. Just like beautiful flowers need to be carefully cared for, women should also receive due care and attention, isn't it?"

Fan Shengmei stared into the distance quietly for a moment, then turned to Qu Lianjie and said, "Okay, let's go downstairs and eat something." The two walked into the house side by side, leaving behind the faint moonlight and the silent night on the balcony.

The two danced to the melodious music. Qu Lianjie's hand was like a gentle butterfly, gently and slowly moving towards Fan Shengmei's waist. Fan Shengmei seemed to feel the hint, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, her eyes blurred, her hands involuntarily raised slowly, and finally gently fell on Qu Lianjie's broad and solid shoulders.

At this moment, their bodies were pressed together, like two hearts fused together by love. Fan Shengmei was immersed in this wonderful feeling, mistakenly thinking that this was the legendary love coming. So, on this romantic night, she devoted herself to Qu Lianjie without reservation.

The next morning, the sun shone through the curtains into the room, creating patches of light and shadow. Qu Lianjie was still sleeping soundly in bed, with a satisfied smile on his face. Fan Shengmei woke up early, got out of bed quietly, and walked into the bathroom to wash up and take a bath.

At this moment, Fan Shengmei's cell phone suddenly rang with a rapid ring. She hurriedly wrapped herself in a bath towel, walked quickly to the living room and picked up the phone. An anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Amei! Your sister-in-law has already told me about the previous things, but the company insists on firing me. What should I do?" It turned out to be Fan Shengmei's eldest brother calling for help.

Fan Shengmei roared angrily: "You feel anxious now? Why weren't you anxious when you beat someone up?" Her voice was filled with anger and disappointment.

Brother Fan spread his hands helplessly and sighed, "Things have already come to this, what's the point of you scolding me? They insist on firing me, and there's nothing I can do." There was a hint of frustration and helplessness in his tone.

Then, Brother Fan said anxiously: "But the whole family needs to eat, what should I do! Otherwise, you can find me another job, not too tiring, two to three thousand yuan a month will be enough." His eyes revealed his worry about life and his dependence on his sister.

After hearing what her brother said, Fan Shengmei was even more furious. She widened her eyes and retorted, "Do you think I run a company? I'll give you any job you want. I used so many connections to help you find your previous job, and you just beat me to death with just one punch!"

She became more and more excited and her voice became louder and louder. Fan Shengmei felt aggrieved and helpless. She felt that she had given too much to this family but did not get the understanding and support she deserved.

Fan Shengmei said angrily, "I'm telling you, from now on, I won't ask about anything you have to do!"

When Brother Fan heard this, his face turned very ugly. He said anxiously, "No, Xiaomei, how could you do this? We lost so much money because of that incident before, and now our family has no money at all. I can't find a job, shouldn't you send some money back home? I'm your biological brother!"

Brother Fan became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice unconsciously rose eight degrees: "You can't just watch your brother and his family starve to death! We are blood relatives!"

Fan Shengmei listened to her brother's words, feeling aggrieved and helpless. She widened her eyes and retorted, "Do you still have any shame? The compensation and medical expenses for your assault were all borrowed from everywhere! In order to help you pay off your debts, I asked people for money everywhere. Now people stay away from me, fearing that I will ask them for money! But I have to live and eat!"

At this point, Fan Shengmei's eyes became moist, tears welling up in her eyes. She bit her lip and continued, "Are you trying to drive me to death?"

Sister-in-law Fan: "Amei, it's sister-in-law, please don't blame your brother, he is a straightforward person, sometimes he says things that are not pleasant to the ears, but he has a good heart. Regarding the money, our family is really in trouble now, and we have no other choice but to ask you for help."

Mrs. Fan paused for a moment and continued, "I won't say much else. Lei Lei is still so young and growing. We can't let him go hungry, can we? Besides, the New Year is coming soon and the family needs money everywhere. After the New Year, Lei Lei will have to pay tuition, which is a considerable expense. If your brother can't find a job, our family will really not be able to survive..."

The more Fan Shengmei listened, the more upset she felt. She knew that her eldest brother's family was in a very difficult situation, but she also had her own difficulties. She couldn't help but interrupt Sister Fan's words: "Sister-in-law, I know it's not easy for you, but I also have my difficulties..." However, before she could finish, Sister Fan rushed to say: "Amei, please help us, sister-in-law!"

Fan Shengmei could no longer bear such words. She frowned tightly, her face full of pain, and closed her eyes, as if she wanted to isolate herself from everything. Finally, she hung up the phone with all her strength, and then turned off the power button of her phone without hesitation. At this moment, she felt as if she was trapped in an endless darkness, and the heavy and depressing atmosphere filled the air, making her almost suffocate.

Fan Shengmei slowly opened her eyes and looked at Andy. Her lips moved but no sound came out. Her eyes were full of confusion and helplessness, as if she had lost her direction.

Andy on this side was on the phone with concern: "Where are you?"

On the other side, Wei Wei sighed helplessly and said, "Plans really can't keep up with changes! Two important foreign customers have come and need to stay in Shanghai for three days. As the person in charge, I must accompany and receive them throughout the whole trip!" His tone revealed a hint of helplessness and fatigue, but at the same time it also showed his serious and responsible attitude towards work.
