Chapter 187: Chapter 187: The Fourth Young Master Plays Romantic (2)

"I learned from the company’s designer before." Ever since he was young, he never aimed to inherit the family business. However, although his grandmother didn’t oppose him studying medicine, she strictly required him to learn about company management, which included jewelry design, pearl farming, and so on.

"I didn’t expect you to be so talented." Mi Jing exclaimed, then curiously and puzzledly asked, "Why did you agree to get a marriage certificate with me? I’m increasingly feeling that I’m not good enough for you!"

"What nonsense are you talking!" Shen Lingxing squeezed Mi Jing’s nose with a straight face, a hint of helplessness and reproach in his words.

"It’s not nonsense, it’s the truth. Someone like you, with such great qualities, could easily find a well-matched socialite lady, someone intelligent, elegant, talented, young, beautiful, and surrounded by a bright halo."

"There are many such women."

"Is it because there’s no novelty?" Mi Jing asked.

"No."

"Then why?"

"Because none of them are as adorable as you."

Adorable?

Shouldn’t that adjective be used for Li Bao’er?

But anyway, it was a compliment. Mi Jing smiled and asked, "What do you find adorable about me?"

"Everything about you is adorable." There was no hint of perfunctory in his words. Shen Lingxing looked directly at Mi Jing, his attitude incredibly serious.

Being praised so earnestly by Shen Lingxing and stared at intently like that, Mi Jing felt unsettled. Instantly, she felt her face heat up and, somewhat embarrassed, looked away.

"Honey, are you feeling shy?" Shen Lingxing reached out to turn Mi Jing’s face back toward his, teasing her playfully.

"..." Mi Jing glared at Shen Lingxing, unceremoniously pried his hand off her cheek, straightened her back, and with a red face, admitted, "Yes! Do you have a problem with that?"

"No problem." Shen Lingxing chuckled, took Mi Jing’s hand, stood up, and said, "Let’s go for a walk on the balcony."

Could there be another surprise?

With this thought, Mi Jing’s eyes lit up again and she followed Shen Lingxing to the balcony, full of joy.

As soon as the balcony door opened, the chilly wind immediately blew in, making her feel cold. Mi Jing shrank her neck and instinctively hid behind Shen Lingxing, letting him shield her from the wind.

"Is it very cold?" Shen Lingxing turned and glanced at Mi Jing who was hiding behind him. Without another word, he slightly turned his body and pulled her into his arms.

With Shen Lingxing’s warm embrace shielding her from the wind, Mi Jing felt much warmer. She lifted her eyes and her gaze swept over the roses swaying gracefully in the wind.

Not just a single rose or a pot, but many pots of roses placed closely together, forming a small sea of flowers.

Colorful and vibrant, almost like what she saw in the professor’s glass greenhouse that day. However, Mi Jing felt these roses were even more beautiful because they were gifted to her by Shen Lingxing.

"I thought you were allergic to flower pollen?" A few days ago, the professor called her, specifically mentioning the black roses and Shen Lingxing’s pollen allergy, but she hadn’t paid it much mind then and didn’t specifically ask Shen Lingxing. Now, seeing these beautiful roses, she remembered.

"I’m not allergic to flowers I buy myself." Shen Lingxing didn’t intend to deceive Mi Jing, casually revealing his lie.

"Did you misunderstand something? I’m not close with Zhao Yufan at all."

"All the more reason not to accept his flowers then."

Indeed, if Shen Lingxing hadn’t found an excuse to return the roses sent by the professor, she wouldn’t have accepted them. Zhao Yufan made her feel really uncomfortable, and she didn’t like anything even slightly associated with him.

"So what about these flowers? I can’t take care of them, and with the cold weather, they probably won’t last long here, will they?" Looking at the vibrant roses, Mi Jing thought it would be a pity if they wilted after just a few days.

"Don’t worry, Mrs. Xu will take care of them." The wind was strong outside, and after a moment, Shen Lingxing also felt a bit cold. He tightened his hold on Mi Jing’s arm and said, "Let’s go inside."

Walking inside, Mi Jing suddenly remembered the half mousse cake she had neglected and planned to skip dinner tonight to finish the cake. But Shen Lingxing, as if reading her mind, took her arm and said, "Don’t eat the cake, I’ve ordered steak."

Upon hearing this, Mi Jing was delighted again, feeling Shen Lingxing’s plans for the evening were quite rich.

Nonetheless, Mi Jing didn’t like wasting food, so she packed the cake and put it in the fridge, planning to have it for breakfast the next day. After all, it was Shen Lingxing’s thoughtful gesture and shouldn’t be wasted.

As it was still early, the two of them watched TV in the living room for half an hour. Then, Shen Lingxing called to have the pre-ordered meal delivered. By the time it arrived, night had fallen.

With the living room’s chandelier turned off and only a small night light left, Shen Lingxing placed candles on the dining table. With the candles flickering, they sat across from each other, drinking fragrant red wine and eating delicious steak, and Mi Jing felt incredibly content.

At that moment, they didn’t speak, but in the quiet atmosphere, even a simple glance or a small gesture from Shen Lingxing was enough to make Mi Jing utterly mesmerized.

The romantic candlelight dinner began in silence and ended in silence. Several times, Mi Jing found herself captivated by Shen Lingxing’s handsome face illuminated by the candlelight, genuinely feeling everything was just too wonderful, wishing time would stop.

Click—

The chandelier was turned back on, and the room instantly became as bright as day. Alas, even the most beautiful moments must come to an end, but fortunately, the feeling could always remain in the heart.

It seemed Shen Lingxing still had work to finish. After they cleaned everything together, he went upstairs to his study, leaving Mi Jing in the living room. She continued watching her Korean drama while doing some simple exercises.

"Honey, it’s time to sleep."

Once Mi Jing started watching the drama, she couldn’t stop herself. It was past eleven at night, and she was still glued to the screen. Shen Lingxing had urged her to go to bed once after finishing his work, and now, freshly showered, he came downstairs, seeing she was still watching, and his clear voice floated down the stairs.

"Just a little longer, there are only two more episodes to go." Mi Jing turned her head, raised her eyes, and replied to Shen Lingxing with a pleasing smile.

Two episodes?

What did that mean?

Although Shen Lingxing rarely watched TV dramas, he had a general idea that each episode lasted at least half an hour, so watching two more would take well over an hour.

With a slight frown, Shen Lingxing didn’t urge Mi Jing again. Instead, he turned and walked down the stairs to the TV, directly unplugging it.

"Why did you turn off the TV!" Mi Jing protested unhappily.
