Beijing Colors Lingering

After returning to her bedroom, Shen Jinsui put down her bag and sat on the sofa. She raised her hand and touched her chest, feeling that everything that had happened today was somewhat unbelievable.

And so she got together with Zhou Yancong.

She suddenly felt that this was her true first love.

At that time, the night outside was dark, the moon was bright and the stars were few, with only the occasional chirping of insects.

Shen Jinsui walked to the French windows and stared at the pile of boxes in front of her.

The gifts Zhou Yancong gave her had just been delivered to the villa, and she instructed the servants to take them to the bedroom.

At this moment, Shen Jinsui noticed that the boxes were marked with the ages, and then she opened the twenty gift boxes in order of age.

The gifts Zhou Yancong had carefully prepared appeared before her one by one—

Longevity locks and bracelets made of pure gold, two exquisitely crafted dolls, a set of custom-made painting tools and paints, and a crown made with several diamonds.

A pair of custom-made diamond high heels, a gown from a haute couture brand, and a custom-made Fida Belle diamond-encrusted women's watch.

Several diamond necklaces and bracelets in different styles and colors, as well as multiple pairs of diamond earrings in various styles.

Finally, there was a whole box of huge rough diamonds, and even a whole box of pigeon blood rubies...

Shen Jinsui gazed quietly at the pile of gifts, a part of her heart softening, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Shen Jinsui smiled helplessly. Zhou Yancong's way of giving gifts was a bit like a straight man's, with almost half of them being diamonds, but that just happened to suit her tastes.

Then, Shen Jinsui opened the gift bag on the coffee table and took out the red velvet box inside.

She opened the box, and inside was the diamond necklace from before.

After Shen Jinsui finished her skincare routine, she received a message from Zhou Yancong: "[Did you rest?]"

She took her phone, walked to the bedside, lifted the sheet, and half-lay on the bed. Then she typed a reply: "Not yet."

The next second, a new message popped up in the chat: [Have you opened those boxes? Do you like the gift I prepared for you?]

Shen Jinsui: [Thank you, I like it very much.]

Zhou Yancong: [No need to thank me, as long as you like it.]

Shen Jinsui: [Okay.]

Chou Yen-tsung: [What kind of movies do you usually like to watch?]

Shen Jinsui pondered for a moment, tapping her fingers on her phone screen, and replied: "I don't have a particular type I like."

Zhou Yancong: [How about we go to the movies tomorrow?]

Shen Jinsui: [Okay.]

After a long while, when Shen Jinsui felt sleepy, the two ended their chat.

……

The following day, Saturday, the sky was boundless, clear of clouds and dust.

Shen Jinsui woke up naturally and picked up her phone. Several unread messages were displayed on the screen, which were not sent at the same time.

She unlocked her phone and checked; it contained several messages from Zhou Yancong.

【Good morning. 】

Are you awake yet?

When do you want to go out?

Shen Jinsui chuckled softly, then typed a reply: "I usually sleep in until I naturally wake up on weekends; I just got up now."

The next second, Zhou Yancong's message popped up in the chat: [Okay, I know. Go get something to eat first.]

Shen Jinsui smiled sweetly upon seeing this, revealing two dimples at the corners of her lips.

For some time now, Zhou Yancong has been sending her messages every morning.

On weekend mornings, Zhou Yancong would chat with her, naturally knowing that she would sleep until she naturally woke up.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Jinsui replied: "We'll leave at 2 PM."

The next second, Zhou Yancong's message popped up: 【Okay.】

-

In the afternoon, Zhou Yancong appeared at the door of Shen Jinsui's villa a few minutes early.

Knowing he was outside, Shen Jinsui quickly grabbed her bag, opened the door, and went out.

Seeing her come out, Zhou Yancong reached out his hand, his thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was deep and charming, "I'll help you with your bag."

"Mm," Shen Jinsui replied softly, naturally handing him the bag she was holding.

Zhou Yancong took her bag and then took her hand.

Afterwards, Zhou Yancong took her to the movie theater and into a VIP room, where there was no one else except the staff who greeted them.

The two sat down in the best viewing spot, a couple's seat.

A few seconds later, the large screen began playing the movie's opening credits.

Zhou Yancong placed his large hand on the back of Shen Jinsui's hand, gently squeezed it, and then inserted his five fingers between hers, slowly saying, "This is a comedy film, I don't know if you'll like it."

Shen Jinsui glanced down and saw that their fingers were intertwined, like entwined vines.

A slight smile played on her lips, and two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks. "I watch comedies occasionally."

"That's good." Zhou Yancong placed her hand to his lips and gently kissed and caressed it.

The man's warm touch spread across the back of her hand, and Shen Jinsui's cheeks slowly flushed with a rosy hue. She subconsciously tried to pull her hand away, but he held it firmly in his grasp.

Zhou Yancong smiled silently, released her hand, then put his arm around her shoulder, letting her lean against him. He turned his head and kissed her smooth, fair forehead. "The movie is starting."

As soon as he finished speaking, the movie began playing on the screen.

Shen Jinsui leaned against Zhou Yancong, the strong, powerful heartbeat ringing in her ears, and she could feel his well-defined chest through the fabric of his shirt.

Her thoughts drifted away, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to touch the man's chest; his muscles were firm and strong, with smooth lines.

After a long pause, Zhou Yancong let out a deep groan, immediately grabbed that soft, delicate little hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's watch a movie first."

"Oh." Shen Jinsui awkwardly withdrew her hand and gave a sheepish laugh.

The movie Zhou Yancong chose is a romantic comedy. Near the end, the male and female leads embrace intimately, followed by a long and intense French kiss.

The theater had excellent sound, and the surrounding area was filled with the intimate sounds of the male and female leads kissing in the movie, mixed with their disordered panting and breathing.

If this were a normal movie outing with friends, Shen Jinsui wouldn't think anything of it, and might even discuss topics like the kissing skills of the male and female leads with them.

But now that she was with Zhou Yancong and leaning against him, she could clearly feel the arm around her shoulder tightening.

Shen Jinsui stared at the screen in front of her, pursed her red lips, and suddenly felt a little hot. She then moved to the side without making a sound.

The next moment, the arm that had been resting on her shoulder suddenly slid down to her waist.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yancong lifted her up quite easily, placed her on his lap, and pressed his forehead against hers.

"What are you hiding from?"

The hot breath sprayed onto Shen Jinsui's face, and the male and female protagonists on the screen continued to kiss. The atmosphere between the two gradually heated up, spreading out a different kind of emotion.

She felt a little uncomfortable, blinked gently, turned her head slightly, and explained softly, "We're too close, I feel a little hot."

Zhou Yancong chuckled softly upon hearing this and slowly asked, "May I kiss you now?"

The man's voice trailed off with a hint of amusement, his deep, magnetic tone tinged with a touch of huskiness, like a feather gently tickling Shen Jinsui's heart, stirring her nerves.
