With My Profound Love, I Offer to the Years

Chapter 127: Used to like it, not liking it anymore



Chapter 127

Lu Lingchuan sat across from her, his sensual thin lips moving slightly: "Ten seconds countdown."

"What?" Shen Nian didn't understand.

The man didn't respond to her, but instead began counting down.

"Ten."

"Nine."

"Eight."

...

"Three."

"Two."

"One."

As the last word fell, there was a "bang!" sound, and something like a shooting star rushed up from below, bursting into a colorful display in the night sky.

It was fireworks.

At the same time, their observation cabin stopped at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, and from this angle, the view of the fireworks was even more impressive than looking up from the ground.

Shen Nian leaned against the glass, her eyes fixed on the fireworks, unable to hide the smile on her face.

"Shen Nian." Suddenly, a gentle yet magnetic voice came from behind her.

"Hmm?" Shen Nian was about to turn her head, but before she could see the man clearly, his arms encircled her waist, and with a powerful tug, she collided into Lu Lingchuan's embrace.

He lowered his head and accurately met her lips.

"I love you," the three words slowly escaped his mouth.

Six years.

He had known her for six years, and loved her for six years.

His deep voice carried a bewitching quality, his warm breath stirring her heartstrings.

Some say that when you kiss at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, God can see you first and bless your love.

Lu Lingchuan's hand cupped the back of her head, then deepened the kiss, tangling their lips in a domineering embrace.

The fireworks outside became the backdrop for their ardent display. They kissed at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, proving their love to God.

...............

The next day, a day off—

Today they didn't have to go to work, so the two of them indulged in sleeping in.

When Shen Nian woke up, she was nestled in Lu Lingchuan's embrace.

She let out a dainty yawn and slowly opened her eyes.

Reaching out, she felt for her phone on the bedside table and checked the time.

It was already 9:30 in the morning.

She rubbed her eyes and fully woke up, about to sit up.

However, as soon as she moved, Lu Lingchuan's hand on her waist tightened, and Shen Nian fell back into his embrace.

Lu Lingchuan buried his head in her collarbone, nuzzling her like a fluffy puppy seeking affection.

Shen Nian couldn't help but laugh, pushing his head gently: "Let me go, I need to get up."

Lu Lingchuan kept his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep in her arms. After a few seconds, he mumbled, "It's a day off today."

Meaning he wanted her to sleep in a little longer with him.

"I know," Shen Nian said. "But I've made plans to go shopping for clothes with some colleagues today."

She had already promised them, and she couldn't back out now, as that would be rude.

"..." Lu Lingchuan didn't say anything.

Shen Nian waited for a long time but didn't hear him respond, so she said again, "Did you hear me?"

"Hmm..." Lu Lingchuan responded lazily with his eyes still closed, then said, "I'm not happy about it."

While others express their unhappiness through emotions, Mr. Lu expressed it directly.

It was a rare day off when they could rest, but she had to go out with others.

The CEO was not pleased, very displeased.

Shen Nian laughed helplessly and pushed his head again: "I promised a few days ago, I can't really refuse."

To appease him, Shen Nian's voice softened: "I'll come back early, and then we can go to the farmer's market to buy ingredients and have a hot pot at home?"

Coaxed like this, Lu Lingchuan finally relented and let her go: "Okay."

It was almost 10 o'clock, and if she wasted any more time, she would be late.

Shen Nian stepped out of bed in her slippers and headed to the bathroom.

...............

The atmosphere at the company was good, and Shen Nian had helped many people, so she had always been popular.

Today, the ones who invited her out shopping were not only her closest friend Jiang Lingling but also Li Nan, He Ying, and a few others.

When Shen Nian arrived, they were already there, and they all entered the mall together.

The first floor of the mall had quite a few clothing stores, and they started browsing one by one.

"What do you think of this dress?"

"Hmm, it's nice, but the color is a bit too light. With your little one being at a mischievous age, you won't be able to keep it clean."

"You're right..."

The few of them huddled together, picking out clothes, while Shen Nian browsed alone nearby.

The style of this store was quite nice, and she liked it.

She picked up a black jacket and happened to be standing in front of a mirror, so she held the jacket up against herself to check the fit.

Hmm, not bad.

"Sister Nian!" Jiang Lingling suddenly came out of nowhere and pounced on Shen Nian.

Shen Nian smiled and merely chided her gently: "Be careful, don't get the clothes dirty."

"Okay!" Jiang Lingling readily agreed, holding two dresses in her hands. "Sister Nian, Sister Nian, help me choose which one looks better!"

Shen Nian carefully compared the two and pointed to the one on the left: "This one."

"Got it!" Jiang Lingling had complete faith in Shen Nian's taste and immediately returned the one on the right to the shop assistant.

Noticing the black jacket in Shen Nian's hand, Jiang Lingling asked, "Sister Nian, you like this one?"

"It's alright," Shen Nian said, looking down at the jacket in her hand. "I think the style is nice."

Then she held up the jacket and asked Jiang Lingling, "Doesn't it look good?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Lingling scrutinized it carefully for a moment, then gave her opinion: "It's not that it doesn't look good, but Sister Nian, you're so beautiful, and your figure is so great, you would look good even in a sack."

"It's just... I feel it doesn't really match your aura."

After saying that, feeling that she had made a fair point, she nodded to emphasize her words.

Indeed, Shen Nian's features were very gentle, resembling that of a fresh, innocent beauty - the kind of delicate look that suited lighter colors better.

Catching sight of a white embroidered loose bubble-sleeved blouse nearby, Jiang Lingling immediately grabbed it.

"Sister Nian, you'll definitely look gorgeous in this!"

Without even needing to try it on, just looking at the style, she could imagine how beautiful Shen Nian would look wearing it.

"..." Shen Nian didn't take the blouse from Jiang Lingling but instead stared at the white shirt.

After a long pause, she curved her lips slightly, took the blouse from Jiang Lingling's hand, but didn't try it on. Instead, she put it back on the rack.

"It's quite pretty, but I don't like it."

"Ah..." Jiang Lingling looked at the shirt now hanging back on the rack. "I thought it looked really nice. Sister Nian, you don't like it?"

"Hmm," Shen Nian replied. "I don't like white."

With that, she handed the black jacket in her hand to the shop assistant: "Please pack this one up for me. Thank you."

When she heard Shen Nian's words, Jiang Lingling was somewhat surprised and puzzled. Without much thought, she asked directly: "Sister Nian, you don't like white? But I remember you really liked white before."

She recalled that when she first started her internship, Shen Nian wore white every day, looking exceptionally beautiful.

It was precisely because she knew how good Shen Nian looked in white that she thought this blouse would suit her well.

"..." Shen Nian's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly curved her lips into a smile: "I used to like it quite a bit, but not anymore."
