Marquez also said that when people travel on this forever-long journey, they need to run on the bumpiest paths and be reborn from the harshest blows.

So Zheng Shuyi decided to not let herself fall into a sea of embarrassment.

It's plastic, so what?

Plastic changed the daily life of mankind, making it one of the greatest inventions ever. Due to the environmental issues it brought, it's also one of the worst inventions. But in this era, plastic can be seen as the hero of the world! Do you have a problem with that?

"My ancestors were poor, and life was hard for them. As farmers, they haven't seen much of this world."

Although Zheng Shuyi's voice sounded extremely emotional, Shi Yan's face didn't have the slightest change.

"Although it's just plastic, it's the most precious thing in our house back then."

"My grandma had taken well care of it for years and, back in the day, she wasnt even willing to show it to others."

"After all, it's plastic, and it can easily be damaged."

"I don't even wear it except during important circumstances."

After each sentence, she would pause for a little bit before continuing.

Zheng Shuyi leaned back on her sofa. It was so quiet that she could even hear the sound of the humidifier beside her.

After the clock ticked for three seconds, Chen Sheng's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Miss Zheng, when do you want it?"

"The sooner the better."

""

I can't sleep without looking at it."

"Then I'll deliver it to you?"

"There's no need to trouble you, I can come to get it myself."

" Okay."

With that, he ended the call.

After a few minutes, Zheng Shuyi received a text message containing an address.

She stared at those words for a long time "Bay of Clouds". She knew where that neighborhood was.

Based on her knowledge of the house prices there, she knew that it couldn't be his assistant, Chen Sheng's, house.

Then

Zheng Shuyi jumped up and rushed into the bedroom.

She opened the closet and quickly changed her clothes, then walked to the vanity table and grabbed the color of lipstick that had been praised by men the most.

But when she was about to put it on, she thought of something and placed the lipstick down.

In the end, not only did she put on the lipstick, she even wiped off the original one she had on.

The night was as cold as winter. Zheng Shuyi sat in the car through the busy traffic. Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Bay of Clouds.

On both sides of the gates, the two patrols stood on their platforms like two stiff poplar trees. Other than their eyeballs, their whole body was completely motionless.

Zheng Shuyi walked to the patrol room window and after talking to one of them, she signed on a visitor sheet and was allowed to enter.

Ten minutes later, Zheng Shuyi was standing in front of Shi Yan's house. Before ringing the doorbell, she pressed her hand against her chest.

Ever since leaving her house, everything had been going smoothly. There wasn't even a traffic jam on the way here, making her hard to believe how the world was running in her favor.

According to Murphy's Law1Murphys law states that: "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong", in general, something bad tends to happen around this time.

But since she was already standing here

Zheng Shuyi straightened her hair and pressed on the doorbell.

A moment later, the door slowly opened. Zheng Shuyi lowered her eyes, smiled, then raised her head.

She had a feeling that she was going to be torn apart as her face blushed. She held tight onto her earring and prepared to leave, "Uh sorry for the bother, I'll be going now."

Shi Yan leaned against the table beside him and studied Zheng Shuyi's expression, "You're leaving already?"

"Yeah, it's already late, sorry for the interruption." She nodded toward him and turned to leave.

But when she walked to the door, she frowned. She couldn't calm herself down.

Not only did she waste all her time before, if he really had a girlfriend, then all her plans would be ruined.

Without a definite answer, she wouldn't give up.

So after she reached her hand to open the door, she changed her mind and instead, just grasped on the door.

Then, she slowly turned her head around and looked at Shi Yan, who had already stood up.

Seeing that she didn't leave yet, Shi Yan stopped for a moment and looked at her.

"Um"

The blush on Zheng Shuyi's face hadn't disappeared yet, and her voice also softened down by a lot. It sounded as if she was about to say something inappropriate.

"On the way here, there are some inconveniences. May I ask to borrow something from your girlfriend?"

Shi Yan raised his eyebrows, "My girlfriend?"

His answer wasn't as she expected, but Zheng Shuyi was determined to find out the truth, "The one in the room, isn't she your girlfriend?"

Looking at the room, she suddenly felt more nervous than during the first interview for her job.

Shi Yan looked toward the room and then looked back. Then he laughed softly.

"No."

""

Zheng Shuyi relaxed and muttered to herself, "Okay good.."

Almost got scared to death.

Shi Yan suddenly raised his eyes, trying to figure out what she was thinking.

The twinkling eyes, the flushed face, and the mouth movement of "okay good", her thoughts were all written on her face.

Shi Yan lowered his head and unbuttoned his shirt casually.

"Oh? What's good?"

Zheng Shuyi: ?

Are you dumb? What do you think?

"Uh to prevent some unnecessary misunderstandings."

"What misunderstanding?"

Zheng Shuyi raised her eyes, and when she found Shi yan looking at her, her face instantly became serious, but her tone didn't quite catch up yet.

Her voice softened down even more. She felt really embarrassed by the situation.

"Misunderstanding"

Zheng Shuyi didn't say it after all.

She lowered her head and her eyes turned around rapidly. Her ears became even redder from the panic.

Shi Yan stopped unbuttoning and placed his hands back into his pants pockets. He seemed to be really relaxed and studied Zheng Shuyi interestingly.

"Oh, so no misunderstandings from my niece?"

Oh, just his niece.

Zheng Shuyi let out a sigh of relief.

Wait, niece?!
