Chuzheng slept for another hour before she got up, her cool gaze falling on the person she was holding.
A moment later, she lowered her head and planted a kiss on the man’s lips, then naturally got out of bed to wash up.
Shen Ming: “…”
Shen Ming quickly returned to his own room.
After Chuzheng finished washing up and came out, Shen Ming was already making breakfast, with Lin Yang sitting in the living room reading briefings to him.
Lin Yang’s glance was casual at first, but his eyes landed on Chuzheng’s neck, and he immediately looked down in panic, pretending he saw nothing.
Chuzheng walked to the kitchen and leaned against the edge, watching Shen Ming cook breakfast.
Shen Ming handed her the poured milk, and as his gaze met the mark on the girl’s neck, he freed a hand to tidy her clothes, “Baby, don’t let it show.”
Chuzheng was indifferent, “Why?” Wasn’t it he who kissed her? Was he repulsed now?
Shen Ming: “…”
Shen Ming lowered his voice, “I don’t want others to speak ill of you.” She was still a year shy of adulthood, and if others saw it, who knows what would be said.
Next time, he couldn’t kiss her there.
“Mhm.”
Chuzheng nodded but showed no intention of concealing it. With any movement she made, the suggestive marks would appear and disappear, enticingly contrasted against her pale skin.
Shen Ming: “…”
Shen Ming sent Lin Yang away and directly got leave for Chuzheng, only allowing her to go to school once the marks had completely vanished.
Standing in front of Shen Ming, Chuzheng said, “Why don’t you kiss it again?”
She pointed to her neck.
Shen Ming: “…”
“You can’t,” said Shen Ming.
“Why?”
“You have to go to school,” Shen Ming said. “People will see it.”
“…” Right, so that’s why I’m asking you to kiss me! Then I won’t have to go to school!

Shen Ming dropped Chuzheng off at school, and she still held out hope, “Are you really not going to kiss me?”
Shen Ming seriously wondered whether it was he who harbored improper intentions, or whether it was she who was harboring them towards him.
In the end, Chuzheng entered the school with her backpack, disappointed.
“Boss, boss.” Fatty called out to her as he caught up, “Want to have breakfast?”
“I’ve eaten.”
The little eyes of Fatty whirled around twice, “Boss, was that your brother who dropped you off just now?”
“Mhm.”
“Boss, there’s talk out there… your brother, he’s indifferent to Shen Corporation’s dire straits, not caring at all about family ties, cold and ruthless…” Fatty spoke cautiously.
“Oh.” What’s that got to do with me?
“Your brother has been away for so long, Boss, you should be careful…” Fatty added.
Chuzheng: “…” Be careful of what? He wouldn’t even give me a kiss!
Although Chuzheng didn’t want to come to school, she was still serious about her studies.
King’s Account noticed that his little mistress had a passive skill; as long as the material was practical, she would learn and understand it.
Pointless stuff she couldn’t bother with, not even willing to give it another glance.
–
The news about Shen Ming was soon suppressed.
With Shen Ming’s current status, not just anyone could shake him, no one wanted to offend him, and gradually, the issue was no longer discussed.
As for Shen Corporation…
It had become a thing of the past.
Chuzheng was busy completing the messy acquisition tasks that Bastard suddenly issued and had no time to pay attention to what Shen Ming was doing.
Lately, Shen Ming seemed very busy; sometimes she would be asleep by the time he returned, and then he would wake her up.
In the end, Chuzheng threw him out without any mercy.
After being woken up by Shen Ming a few times and realizing the severe consequences, he dared not wake her again and would quietly hold her as he slept upon returning.
Throughout this time, Song Jing and Bai Yuyao have been very well-behaved.
Graduation was quickly approaching.
“Boss, which school are you thinking of applying to?” Fatty asked with concern.
“Any will do.”
Fatty glanced at Chuzheng, “Boss, the study nerds have no idea about the struggles of dunces.”
“You’ve got money, what school couldn’t you go to?”
“That’s easy for you to say, but my old man told me that if I don’t do well, he can’t face the shame and will cut off my card.”
“…” Chuzheng thought for a moment, then seriously suggested, “How about getting someone to take the test for you?”
Fatty was horrified: “…”
The boss seemed like such a serious person! How could he say something like that!
Chuzheng was never one for playing by the rules.
In her own words—her only rule was having no rules.
So, her suggestion was totally in character.
“Forget it, it’s not like the old days, now they use facial recognition to get into the test center.” Fatty continued to whine, “Boss, if I don’t pass, just forget about me.”
Chuzheng: “…”
Forget about what?
What kind of drama was he adding to himself?
Finally, the day of the exam came.
After the test, Fatty came out wailing to Chuzheng—it was so heartbreaking, anyone would think Chuzheng had dumped him.
Once Fatty had finished crying, Chuzheng left the school.
Shen Ming was already waiting outside, amidst the throngs of luxury cars picking up students, his car was the only one with a clear space around it.
“Shen Chuzheng really does lead a charmed life, even without the Shen family, she still has a brother.”
“Shen Ming is so handsome! And he doesn’t even have a girlfriend yet! Young and successful, I really want to marry him!”
“Dream on, do you think he would fall for you?”
“If I had known earlier, I should have formed a good relationship with Shen Chuzheng.”
“Hey, it’s not like you haven’t seen her, she doesn’t pay attention to anyone and even finds them annoying.”
“That’s because of how you treated her before. If you had been nicer to her in the past, would she be like this now?”
“You talk so lightly. Why didn’t you treat her better then?”
“…”
Chuzheng closed the car door, shutting out the noise from outside.
Shen Ming leaned over to kiss her. He had been kissing her longer lately, and Chuzheng, not catching her breath in time, had a bit of red in the corners of her eyes.
Coupled with her expressionless little face, it was oddly thrilling.
Shen Ming quickly controlled himself and pulled away from Chuzheng.
Chuzheng rubbed her eyes, her voice cold, “You have time?”
“To pick up my treasure, I must have time.”
“When I got in the car, I saw Lin Yang was about to cry.” Chuzheng returned to normal, the flush in the corners of her eyes fading.
“…” What was Lin Yang doing at the front?!
Shen Ming pinched her cheeks, changing the subject, “Which university do you want to attend?”
Shen Ming asked which one she wanted to attend, not which one she could get into.
That meant that as long as Chuzheng expressed a wish, he could get her into that university.
Which school to attend? She really hadn’t considered that; it was such a hassle…
Chuzheng, not happy with Shen Ming pinching her, dodged impatiently, “Any would do.”
Shen Ming slightly raised an eyebrow, “Then should big brother decide?”
“Mhm.”
Shen Ming held Chuzheng’s fingers, “Treasure, in a month it’ll be your birthday.”
“Mhm?” What’s so special about having a birthday?
Shen Ming tickled her nose, “You’ll be eighteen.”
Chuzheng with a blank face: “Mhm.”
Seeing that his hints were fruitless, Shen Ming didn’t continue, but simply said, “Next month, I’ll take my treasure out to have fun, okay?”
Chuzheng wanted to refuse.
But considering the requirements for the Good Person Card, she couldn’t refuse.
So, she nodded with a poker face.
Today, she was also working hard to be a good person!
