Chapter 22 A Plum Blossom from Heaven is worse than a Childhood Sweetheart

The deep purple grapes have had their skins peeled off.

Plenty of juice trickled down her tender white fingertips, but no one noticed at that moment.

Without anyone noticing, Xie Qingyu was now sitting on Shen Shen's lap, facing him. Shen Shen had his hands behind Xie Qingyu to protect her from slipping, but his eyes were fixed on her.

Xie Qingyu pretended not to know what his intense gaze meant.

She held up a peeled grape and offered it to his lips, saying, "Mr. Shen, have some grapes."

Shen Shen seemed completely oblivious to the mischievous smile in her eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "You eat."

The suppressed voices and the increasingly obvious sense of aggression made the surrounding air feel hot.

The atmosphere in the room changed instantly, with a subtle ambiguity and a restless passion brewing.

Xie Qingyu stared intently at Shen Shen, a small smile curving her lips. She parted her pink lips slightly, and a peeled grape, moistened with her lips, was placed into her mouth.

Shen Shen's gaze was firmly fixed on Xie Qingyu. Seeing the smile in her eyes, every move she made stirred a desire within him.

The hand that was on his waist had somehow moved to Xie Qingyu's cheek. Shen Shen held Xie Qingyu's cheek with one hand, making him lift his chin slightly, and then kissed him eagerly.

Like someone eager to eat grapes.

Shen Shen went straight for the grapes. The sweet and sour juice burst in his mouth, which he eagerly swallowed, and even the sweet saliva seemed like a delicacy.

Only after squeezing out the last bit of deliciousness from the grapes did Shen Shen release Xie Qingyu, his face full of expectation as he gently coaxed, "Eat one more."

Xie Qingyu refused.

Shen Shen didn't say anything, but peeled the grapes himself and put them in his mouth. Then he bent down and let Xie Qingyu taste them together.

After eating three grapes, Xie Qingyu felt her lips were about to swell up, and she said angrily, "Don't you have any work to do?!"

Shen Shen pulled the person into his arms and chuckled softly.

With a girlfriend by his side, who would want to work? He must have lived a miserable life before.

It's all his fault for waking up too late, wasting all those precious years. If he had just settled down with someone when he was young, he wouldn't be experiencing the joys of love now.

"There's no rush with work." Shen Shen placed his hand on Xie Qingyu's lower back.

Shen Shen's restrained expression was too obvious. Xie Qingyu belatedly realized what the heat was and hurriedly tried to get off Shen Shen's lap, but he firmly controlled her with his large hands and she could not move.

"Stop torturing me, let me hold you for a while."

"You..." Xie Qingyu hesitated, her face flushing red, unsure whether it was from embarrassment or anger.

Shen Shen also knew that the change in status was sudden, and such a reaction would have been inappropriate if the two had been in a familiar relationship before.

Afraid of frightening Xie Qingyu, Shen Shen didn't dare to move around and just talked to distract her.

“Fu Yan has investigated the matter of being photographed last time.” Shen Shen knew that Xie Qingyu would definitely be interested in this.

"So what's going on?" Xie Qingyu was indeed excited when she heard this topic.

Shen Shen frowned. "It's Haozi's girlfriend who came over. She said she just happened to be passing by and took a few photos to sell for money."

"Are there any others?"

Shen Shen shook his head. No, there wasn't any. He had investigated the surveillance footage in the courtyard and the corridor, including every word she uttered after entering the villa. It was true that she just happened to walk to that spot, saw it, and took a picture; she didn't have any contact with anyone.

Haozi's girlfriend was also someone he met at a bar; she was basically a one-night stand.

After this incident, Haozi hurriedly broke up with Shen Shen and apologized.

"Are your photos that valuable?" Xie Qingyu asked in return.

Some paparazzi teams do indeed pay high prices for such photos.

However, those who can make it into this circle are not exactly shrewd, but they are not stupid either.

Doing this is tantamount to cutting off all future paths. Unless one is completely desperate, no one would release the photos they have.

As for selling photos for money, it sounds reasonable, but it doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.

The money the paparazzi gave me wasn't enough to buy a bag that Haozi bought for me.

But there was no other reason, and she couldn't even be found to have any connection with anyone else she might have.

"It's the same as when you were drugged," Xie Qingyu concluded after hearing just a few words.

Yes, Shen Shen could feel it too.

Both of these incidents were directed at her, but the investigations were baffling. The reasons given were unconvincing, and upon closer examination, no other clues were found.

However, human intuition is always more intuitive than evidence.

Shen Shen has a direction for the next step of the investigation, but it is not convenient to tell Xie Qingyu right now.

-------------------------------------

On Zhou Shi's birthday, Xie Qingyu set off from Shen Shen's side.

When the two arrived, quite a few people had already gathered.

Zhou Shi's birthday party this year was a house party, and it was all young people.

The entire villa is a paradise for fun, with the swimming pool in the backyard being the most lively spot.

Today's birthday celebration is also being held here. The rest area is set up with drinks and desserts for everyone to take as they please, and a platform has also been set up.

Although there were many people, they were mostly people I knew.

Zhou Shi is a good person and has many friends, most of whom he has met, and none of them bring a girlfriend outside the entertainment industry.

Those who are here are all people with some connections in the industry, which to some extent prevents certain things from happening.

This is also a lesson Zhou Shi learned from the previous photo incident.

When they arrived, Master Zhou was standing at the entrance greeting them.

Seeing the two people hand over identical boxes, Zhou Shi was uncharacteristically stunned: "You two aren't trying to fool me by sending the exact same thing, are you?"

“It’s different, you’ll see for yourself.” Shen Shen ignored his accusations and handed the box to Zhou Shi.

"You're not just being lazy and buying whatever Qingyu buys, are you?" Shen Shen didn't say anything when he saw Zhou Shi's suspicious look.

He was actually half right.

"Qingyu is still the best to me." Zhou Shi knew this when he saw that Shen Shen didn't speak.

"It's because I'm good to you," Shen Shen said, a rare occurrence for him.

Unfortunately, Master Zhou did not understand the meaning behind his words.

If he knew that Shen Shen didn't want Xie Qingyu to buy him a birthday present, so he paid for two himself, he would be furious.

"Come on in, there's cake that Qingyu loves inside," Zhou Shi said to Xie Qingyu, ignoring his words.

He, the birthday boy, has to wait a while before he can go in.

Shen Shen's face darkened when he saw Zhou Shi's obsequious manner.

How come he never noticed before that Master Zhou really coveted Xie Qingyu?
