Tuesday, April 20th, the weather was sunny.
The mood is tense and expectant.
Just after finishing a class in the morning, Li Xiang asked for leave from the teacher and ran away.
He didn't send a WeChat call to Shen Yu, and sneaked out of school by himself.
I feel so ashamed. She has been in school for eight months, and Lixiang has yet to go home alone. She is picked up and dropped off by a tall and handsome boy every day, which is really annoying.
I am used to being picked up and dropped off, so when I go alone, I feel a little nervous and a little lonely.
Lixiang didn't walk very fast. She carefully checked the route and headed towards the cake shop near her home.
"welcome."
"Hello… "
Smelling the sweet aroma of the cake shop, Li Xiang became less nervous and asked, "I ordered a birthday cake online the day before yesterday. My mobile phone number is 1887927xxxx. Has it been ready?"
"Wait a minute, let me check... It's ready. You picked it up yourself, right?"
"Yeah, I can just get it myself."
Because I wanted to surprise him, the two of them usually got tired of being together, so of course I had to hide the cake order from him.
The clerk took out the finished cake. The cake was not big, but very delicate and beautiful. On it, he wrote a few words according to the blessings provided by Li Xiang: Husband, I wish you a happy birthday!
Then on top of the cake, there is a pair of Q-shaped sugar figures, which are also made in the image of Shen Yu and Li Xiang. They are very cute.
"Very good! Please help me wrap it. It's a birthday gift. It needs to be wrapped beautifully..."
"Don't worry, it will be packed beautifully for you. There are gift boxes here, you can choose one yourself."
Lixiang picked for a long time, and while watching the clerk packing, she asked again: "Sister, um... can you give me a ribbon to wrap the gift?"
"Eh? Oh, of course."
"Thank you!"
Carrying the cake, Li Xiang walked out contentedly, and walked straight towards home without staying outside.
When I saw the door to my home, I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, I didn't get lost. I was really awesome.
Put the cake in the refrigerator, so you don't have to worry about Shen Yujun opening the refrigerator door. Except for the occasional urge to cook, he never opens the refrigerator door.
"Wow, is this a cake?"
"Yeah, today is Mr. Shen Yu's birthday. Xiao Meng No. 1 wants to keep it a secret for me. I won't tell him yet. I'll give him a surprise tonight!"
"Yeah."
Suddenly remembering something, Li Xiang's face turned red and she asked strangely: "Is Xiaomeng No. 1 peeking at me and Shen Yujun in the kitchen every day?"
"No peeking."
Xiaomeng No. 1 was very honest: "I was watching openly. You were kissing and hugging me. I felt so shy, but I was also very curious. Lixiang Lixiang, what does it feel like? When I asked Shen Yu, he refused. tell me."
Rika: "...I won't tell you either. And children can't watch these, they have to close their eyes!"
"Can I do this with Shen Yu in the future?"
"No, Shen Yujun is my husband."
"But Xiao Meng No. 1 loves your husband the most!"
"No, no."
Time was tight. After Li Xiang put the cake, she returned to school and waited at the school gate for Shen Yu to pick her up from school.
It seemed like she was no different from usual, but she had done a lot of things secretly today. She was a little excited and wanted to find someone to share it with, so she called Shen Yu.
After just two rings, the phone was connected.
"Have you finished class?"
"Yeah! Is Mr. Shen Yu off work?"
"I'm on my way. I'll be at school soon."
"Then I wait for you!"
The waiting for the upcoming meeting was the most excruciating. Li Xiang held her mobile phone and looked in the direction where Shen Yu came from. There were many people coming in and out of the school gate, and many people would also cast their eyes on her, but she looked like It didn't feel the same, the whole world was extremely quiet, just waiting for depression to appear.
Five minutes later, when she saw his car, Lixiang's eyes widened significantly, a smile naturally appeared on her lips, and she waved to him from a distance.
The car stopped steadily in front of her, she opened the passenger door, got in the car, and the first thing she did was to watch him smile, and then she fumbled awkwardly to fasten the seat belt.
"Have you been waiting for a long time? get out of class ends early today?"
"Because I miss you!"
When she said these words, she couldn't hide her strong love.
Every time Shen Yu felt that she liked him 100%, she could always tell him again that her liking was 101%, 102%... until infinity.
At least there is no other girl in this world who can smile like this every time she sees him while waiting for school to be over day after day.
"I miss you as well."
"How much do you miss me?"
"I was afraid that my lovely wife would be picked up at school while I was away, so I came to pick you up as soon as I got off work."
"Then they have to start poaching from the previous life."
Li Xiang said: "I probably started to like Shen Yujun from my previous life!"
Shen Yu didn't realize that today was his birthday at all. His parents knew it, but they colluded with Li Xiang. After all, they were a family and had their own small group of three.
Vaguely, Shen Yu felt that something was different today, but he couldn't tell what was different.
Is it that the wind is noisier, or that the weather is gentler, or that the little birds on the branches sing better than yesterday
"Do you feel that today seems... quite beautiful?"
Shen Yu couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe the day. Whether it was the ticking time, the scenery, or the girl beside him, there was a different feeling.
"Didn't Lu Xun say that Buddha comes from the heart, there is a Buddha in the heart, and everything you see is a Buddha, so it's because Mr. Shen Yu is in a better mood today."
"...Did Lu Xun say that?"
"I don't know. I often see what many netizens say on the Internet. They all say it was said by Mr. Lu Xun."
"Don't make trouble."
After lunch, Shen Yu and Li Xiang rested on the sofa together.
Rika leaned against him, held his hand, and trimmed his nails.
Usually when Shen Yu cuts her nails, she just cuts them short and smooth, but Li Xiang scissors are different. She cuts them very gently and carefully, and polishes them carefully with a file.
After cutting her nails, sweeping the floor, she nestled into Shen Yu's arms again, holding his big hands around her, hugging her waist, letting his big hands fall on her lower abdomen, and then her small hands fell on his On the back of the hand.
After lunch, it’s nice to take a nap.
The sun shines into the living room, and you can feel a warm red glow with your eyes closed.
Sensing his big hands wandering around, Li Xiang snorted and asked him, "Are you sleepy..."
"Sleepy… "
"Then you still have sex, you big pervert."
"…Instinct."
"Only through clothes."
“…”
After all, I still couldn't prevent it.
After a simple nap for forty minutes, Li Xiang tidied his clothes, helped him tidy up his collar and hair style, and the two of them went out to work together.
With the development of new businesses, many companies are very interested in the AI solutions provided by Sanlan Technology. After all, there are two versions of the game core. Some companies that cannot develop AI by themselves have begun to contact Sanlan Technology. .
As the core person in charge of the project, after colleagues from the sales department make appointments with customers, when they encounter some high-quality customers and in-depth problems, Shen Yu also needs to go out to meet the customers.
Shen Yu is also mainly busy with this matter these days. He has initially written a set of programs for demonstration and explanation based on the customer's situation. This is also the first major customer invited by Sanlan Technology. If the project can be negotiated, the contract price will not be Less than 10 million, of course, the development cycle may take a year.
Shen Yu did not go to the company. After lunch break, he drove to the client's company with Li Xiang.
The office environment here is much higher than theirs, because the client's company is in the financial field.
With the development of the AI concept, finance is a popular project for AI applications. The main reason is that its own logic is very complex and requires rationality. After all, human thinking has limitations, such as chasing ups and downs and other human weaknesses.
As a little secretary, this was the first time for Li Xiang to enter and leave such a high-end office. Her face was tight and serious, and she followed Shen Yu honestly with the folder in her arms.
"Are you nervous?"
"Just throw it away!"
"You're not nervous at all, right?"
"Will Mr. Shen Yu be nervous?"
"There's nothing to be nervous about. Compared to confessing to you, my heart doesn't even beat for this kind of thing."
"Hee, bragging!"
They chatted and got on the elevator together. With the calm and confident Shen Yu beside her, Li Xiang became less nervous.
Yu's work style is different from Shen Deyou's. Dad is a more traditional boss and is very skillful in dealing with customers. This is also a characteristic of the traditional entity industry. He doesn't have a few meals and a few bottles of wine. It's hard to get the deal down.
The high-tech industry is different. The only core competitiveness is R&D strength and product results. As long as your technology is better than others, then you have the right to speak.
I briefly met with the technical director who had made the appointment, and both parties entered the conference room together.
There were also several technical backbones participating in this technical meeting, and the vice president was already sitting in the main seat, looking through the information.
Seeing Shen Yu so young, everyone present was a little surprised, but they didn't say anything, they just secretly raised questions about this technical meeting.
Li Xiang sat next to Shen Yu. Both of them brought laptops, so she helped record the meeting elements. It didn't matter if she couldn't remember it. Anyway, there was a recording, and she could sort it out slowly when she got back. With such a temperamental secretary accompanying her, she even had a melancholy expression. The aura is much higher.
Whether the other party is strong or not can be known from the moment he opens his mouth.
A confident and loud voice sounded in the conference room. He distributed information to the participants, opened the PPT and began to explain the project, including algorithmic trading, insurance, asset management, credit reporting, etc., and elaborated on the ideas of AI solutions. It was especially clear, and even the vice president who knew nothing about AI listened with rapt attention.
Afterwards, a simple program demonstration was conducted. After all, the people who make the decision on the project are all management. You can’t ask the management to understand it very well, but you must at least let them know what you are talking about. After satisfying this point, you can follow up later. Meeting technical staff to discuss specific technical implementations.
Lixiang could understand the previous content, and she typed on the keyboard quickly to take notes, and also recorded the other party's questions and needs. However, when it came to the technical discussion later, she could not understand it, and the management such as the vice president also listened. I don’t understand, it’s just that Shen Yu is communicating with the other party’s technical staff.
At the beginning, the other party had many and complicated questions, and Shen Yu patiently answered them one by one, appearing very professional. Gradually, the number of questions became less and less. The meeting lasted for almost three hours, and everyone had two rounds of coffee. All fell silent.
"I'm very grateful to Mr. Shen for taking time out of his busy schedule to come over and explain and demonstrate to us today. I think Mr. Shen's explanation is very thorough and the technology is very solid. I look forward to cooperating with Sanlan Technology."
The vice president gave a brief summary at the end, and then asked the technical director to send Shen Yu and Li Xiang downstairs in person. Today's meeting ended here for now.
Li Xiang looked a little unhappy and snorted: "What's so great? If they don't cooperate with Shen Yujun, they will regret it in the future! Our company is still small now and the quotation is not high. When the company grows up, Well, we will repay them 50 million!"
Shen Yu said with a smile: "How do you know they won't cooperate with us?"
"They didn't mention the contract or price at all. It's rare for Mr. Shen Yu to come over in person, just for a meeting. Husband, please don't be angry. Lixiang thinks you said it very well. If I were Boss, I will sign a contract with you and marry you."
"The company is so big that we can't make a decision on the spot. We will definitely have to compare three companies. It will take at least several days to go through the process."
When Shen Yu said there was still hope, Li Xiang clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed.
"What are you doing? You haven't left yet."
"I'm telling Master Martian to ask them to come to our company to sign the contract tomorrow!"
"Haha, no matter how fast it is, it won't be this fast."
"If Mr. Shen Yu feels the same way, then it will be stable."
After getting in the car, Li Xiang took out two plum blossoms from her bag, fed one to Shen Yu and stuffed the other into her mouth.
"Our company will also have such a grand decoration in the future. When I was inside, I didn't even dare to take out the plums in the bag and eat them."
"The layout has become smaller. In the future, we will have our own office building, just like Tencent."
"Uh-huh!"
It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. Shen Yu and Li Xiang did not return to the company and went to the market to buy vegetables together.
Shen Yu held up the chicken, duck and fish and said speechlessly: "Why did I buy so many vegetables today? How can I eat them all?"
"Oh! My uncle and aunt are coming over for dinner tonight, so I'll buy more."
"Why didn't I know..."
When she got home, Shen Yu wanted to help Li Xiang clean up, but she refused to let him come. She even peeled the garlic and cooked the rice herself, and pushed him to the living room to watch TV.
Shen Yu doesn't want to watch TV, he wants to go to the kitchen for a kiss and a hug.
"Xiao Meng No. 1 will see it..."
"Wouldn't that be more exciting?"
"Hateful! Look, Xiaomeng is also peeking!"
"Meow?"
Bai Xiaomeng is squatting at the door of the kitchen. He doesn't care about peeking. He just wants to see when the fish is ready and what's so good about the human beings wearing clothes!
At seven o'clock, Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru also came over.
Seeing the delicious dishes on the table and the son and daughter-in-law busy in the kitchen, the old parents showed happy smiles on their faces. It already looked like home.
"Mom and Dad, why are you here today?"
"What did the brat say? Can't we come over if we have nothing to do?"
"Uncle and auntie, you are here, the food is ready, you can eat."
"Okay, um~ it smells delicious! Li Xiang also said that Shen Yu is good at talking to customers. Auntie thinks that no skills can compare to the delicious food on your table."
Today is Shen Yu's birthday. Li Xiang not only celebrated his birthday today, but also sincerely thanked Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru for bringing her such a good husband. She cooked the entire table by herself, feeling happy and not feeling tired.
After dinner, Li Xiang asked Shen Yu to close her eyes mysteriously.
"What are you doing… "
Chen Yu looked at his parents and then at Li Xiang. He couldn't let him close his eyes and then kiss him in front of his parents. It would be better to hide in the room and do this kind of thing.
"Hurry up, hurry up."
Shen Yu had no choice but to close his eyes.
The lights in the room were turned off, and he seemed to notice it. His eyelids moved, but he still didn't open them.
Time passed little by little, and Xiaomeng No. 1 played the birthday song.
He was stunned for a while, and then he felt a warmth in his heart. Suddenly he felt like he was back in childhood, and his hands on his legs grabbed his knees...
"Dang-dang-dang-dang~! Open your eyes!"
Shen Yu slowly opened his eyes. Li Xiang was holding an exquisite cake in her hand, half-bent in front of him. Twenty-one small candles were dancing, reflecting her little face, and the flames were in her eyes. Reflected in her eyes, behind her, Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru looked at him with smiles on their faces.
"Mr. Shen Yu, today is your twenty-first birthday. I wish you a happy birthday and be happy every day!"
I don't know when she started to prepare. Looking at the sincere smile on her face and everything that happened today, Shen Yu suddenly felt that her nose was a little sore and her throat was choked.
How could such a girl care about him so wholeheartedly
"Mom and dad also wish you a happy birthday. I wish you both a successful relationship and a successful career."
"Meow wow wow!"
Bai Xiaomeng, also wearing a birthday hat on her big head, jumped in front of him.
Chen Yu was silent for a long time, then burst into laughter, stood up and gave her parents a hug, then turned around and hugged Li Xiang tightly, and kissed her on the forehead in front of her parents.
"I love you..." whispered in her ear.
"Uncle and aunt are watching..."
"Look at me and say it too."
Seeing Li Xiang really blushing, Shen Yu let go of her.
The girl was so ashamed that she cleared the table and hid in the kitchen.
Shen Yu and his parents were sitting on the sofa, with this exquisite cake placed on the table.
The candle was still burning, but he hadn't made a wish yet.
Suddenly, he turned his head, looked at Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru, and said seriously: "I want to marry Li Xiang."
Neither Shen Deyou nor Zhang Xiaoru responded, and it took a long time before they said in surprise: "Huh?"
"I said, I want to marry Li Xiang and have children with her."
“…”
This was the first time that Shen Yu said this in front of his parents.
Even though he knew that his parents wanted him to marry Li Xiang as soon as possible, he still said it solemnly.
"Then, let's get married... Oh no, have you proposed to Li Xiang? Are you going to marry her so shamelessly?"
"I will propose. She can only marry me. I only want her in this life."
It was rare to see Shen Yu being so childish. Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru were even more pleased and comforted: "You can just think about it yourself. When Li Xiang agrees to you, your parents will accompany you to Yokohama to propose marriage."
When Li Xiang came out, this topic was no longer discussed. She sat next to Shen Yu and urged him to make a wish quickly.
Shen Yu closed his eyes, made a wish, then opened his eyes and blew out the candle.
After eating the cake, Shen Deyou and Zhang Xiaoru completed their mission and fled back.
Shen Yu and Li Xiang carried the cake to the roof, eating the cake while looking at the stars.
"Shen Yu-kun, do you still remember? On Li Xiang's birthday last time, we were here watching the stars, and then I made a wish to Lord Martian for the first time!"
Chen Yu looked in the direction of Li Xiang's finger, and then reminded her in a low voice: "Mars is not in that direction..."
"... It doesn't matter, Lord Martian won't blame his devout believers!"
Shen Yu ate the cake. He usually didn't like eating such sweet and greasy things, but he ate a lot today, and he had to finish it. Sometimes he ate in a hurry, and his lips would be covered with a layer of butter.
Just as he was about to wipe it off with a tissue, Rika kissed him and ate the cake cleanly from his lips.
"Shen Yujun's mouth is particularly sweet today..."
“…”
Being teased like this by her, Shen Yu's heartbeat was a little fast, and he deliberately dipped some cream into his mouth, but Li Xiang still came over to help him eat it all.
Sure enough, cake is not only delicious but also fun.
The two of them finished the rest of the cake slowly, one bite at a time.
Li Xiang nestled in Shen Yu's arms, looking at the scattered stars in the sky, her face flushed, and asked him: "Husband, how many stars are there in the sky?"
Shen Yu raised his head, counted the visible stars in a circle, and told her: "26."
Lixiang was so angry with him that he was not romantic at all, so she also counted them. After counting them twice, she proudly told him: "There are only 24 of them! Husband, you are so stupid!"
"Yeah?"
Shen Yu looked at her and said softly: "I've included your eyes."
Sure enough, the difference between being romantic or not was just a thought, Li Xiang arched her body against him like a kitten.
"husband… "
"Um?"
"What wish did you make today?"
"I won't tell you."
Her voice suddenly became quieter, as quiet as a mosquito moaning:
"Rika can grant you a wish today... whatever you want me to do... anything!"
Chen Yu looked down at her pink and tender face and her big, watery eyes. His heart beat faster than expected, and his breathing became rapid.
"Have you thought about it?"
"Um… "
"Then let's go downstairs."
Shen Yu carried her downstairs, and Li Xiang went to the bathroom to take a shower, then hid in her room to change clothes and get ready.
My mood at this time was one of nervousness and anticipation. I was sitting naked in front of the dressing mirror, looking at myself in the mirror in a daze.
Then, as if she had made up her mind, she changed into a set of soft white nightgowns, and took out the gift-wrapped ribbon to tie her beautiful hair. Holding a clean blanket in her arms, she came to the melancholy room. room, got into his bed, and waited for his arrival.
Shen Yu came back after taking a shower.
Li Xiang's heartbeat quickened, she shrank her shoulders, grabbed the corners of the quilt, and looked at him unblinkingly with her big eyes.
"husband… "
"Ahem, I'm a little nervous."
"Rika is also very nervous..."
"Then let's not think about it for now."
"Um… "
Shen Yu plugged in the night light he bought two days ago and lay down on his bed. After turning off the light, the room became dim. This brightness could relieve his shyness without making his eyes dark.
Their skin touched, and the two kissed each other for a long time, until the clothes on their bodies disappeared unknowingly.
"Okamoto, are you really lost?"
"Don't use... It's safe today... Rika wants to give you the best first time..."
“…”
"I seem to know what to do..."
"Blanket, blanket..."
“…”
At night, the stars closed their eyes shyly.
Shen Yu is exceptionally gentle.
