Kiss of Venus

Chapter 18

Yu Wan's tears stopped with great effort, and when she took out a cigarette and walked to the balcony, she realized that it was already dark.

Li Shen's yard was still quiet, and the light from the lighter in his hand lit up in the night and then quickly went out.The cigarette butt ignited, took a sip in the evening, and vomited the gloom that had accumulated in his chest.

She likes this brand of cigarettes because it has a delicate and light taste, and it also has a strawberry flavor. But now, when I smoke it, I only taste it bitter.She leaned on the balcony alone, looking at the deep night, still only smoking a cigarette halfway, and then squeezed out the cigarette butt.

I closed the curtains, changed clothes in the evening, and went to the bathroom to take a bath.When she walked to the mirror, she saw her two red and swollen eyes. She did not expect that she would cry like this at this age.

I found a pair of eye masks from the dressing table, stuck it in the mirror the rest of the night, and sat in the bathtub.Going to bed earlier tonight, she doesn't want to go to the company tomorrow with a pair of walnut eyes.

The next morning, the alarm clock woke up on time for more than night, and she found that people really couldn't be lazy, and she almost couldn't get up without going to the company to check in for a week.

The subway in the morning rush hour is as crowded as it is. Even if the place where I live for the rest of the night is only four stops away from the company, I have to go out an hour earlier.

Before leaving the elevator of the office building, Yu night specially took out a small mirror to check the makeup on his face, and then walked out with a smile.

"You night, are you here?" Zhao Xin happened to catch the water at the door of the office, and as soon as Yu night came in, she saw it, "Congratulations, even the clients that are so difficult for Miss Hu have been taken!"

Yu Wan walked to her place, put down the big bag, looked at her and smiled: "It's still early, she made a lot of requests, I still don't know what to do."

"Come on, I am optimistic about you!" Zhao Xin held the water cup, walked to her seat and sat down, and looked at her curiously, "I heard from Mr. Wei that you were married in the game in order to win this case. I really didn't expect that the fishing boat who got married that night would be you!"

Yu Wan's hand that was tidying up things stopped and glanced at her sideways: "Do you know this too?"

"Your wedding is still hanging on the front page of the forum, don't I know?" Zhao Xin said, sliding the chair to Yu Wan, and asked her gossipingly, "Who is that little prince?"

"No one, just a friend of mine when I was studying, who happened to be playing this game, helped me."

"Oh, that's it." Zhao Xin smiled maliciously. "I think he is very willing to hold a wedding banquet. Did he have a crush on you when he was studying?"

Yu Wan picked up the laptop on the desk and smiled at her: "Have you taken a few orders this month? Do you still want to celebrate the New Year?"

Zhao Xin: "..."

She asked about gossip, can you not mention such a disappointment!

"Mr. Wei is in the office?"

Zhao Xin nodded and slid the chair back to her table: "Well, I came early in the morning."

Yu Wan nodded slightly, holding the computer to find Wei Shao.Wei Shao heard the knock on the door, and answered, "Come in."

Yu Wan opened the door and reached half of his body: "Mr. Wei?"

Hearing her voice, Wei Shao finally stopped working and looked at her: "Here?"

"Yeah." Yu Wan walked in with a smile, and sat down opposite Wei Shao, "I'll report to you about Miss Hu's wedding."

Wei Shao nodded slightly: "I heard you say that she made a few difficult requests?"

"Yes, it's mainly because the venue and the host are not easy to find." Yu Wan turned on the computer and told him all Hu Jiao's demands. "The venue can only run next to me. The host, I plan to Ask in the group first to see if anyone knows who meets the conditions."

Every line has a circle for every line, and there are also several groups related to the wedding industry in Yu Wan’s WeChat.

With a cry, Wei Shao pulled out a document from the table and handed it to her: "A city and all the venues around city A that can hold outdoor weddings are listed on it."

Yu Wan took the file, glanced roughly, and raised his head to Wei Shao and said, "Okay, then I will do it first."

"Well, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me at any time."

"Ok."

After Yu Wan had packed her things and was about to go out, Wei Shao stopped her again.He stared at her face for two seconds, and asked her, "What's wrong with your eyes? Have you cried?"

"..." Is it a straight man who is engaged in wedding planning, with a particularly delicate mind?She smeared such a thick powder, he could still see it.Yu Wan smiled and said, "No, I just stayed up late to play games and didn't sleep well."

Wei Shao didn't ask any more, just nodded and asked her, "What do you want to eat at noon?"

Yu Wan said: "The boss treats you, whatever you want to eat, as long as it's expensive."

Wei Shao smiled: "Okay, go ahead."

Throughout the morning and the rest of the night, I have been screening the wedding venues, roughly determining where there are big trees, and I still have to go to the scene to see if it is appropriate.In addition, she also sent a message to her group, asking if there is a female host with a height of 155 cm-she checked the information on the game official website, and Yuelao's height is 155.

The additional condition is that the image is sweet and cute, and the voice is loli.

Her request caused discussion in the group. Because of the particularity of the wedding host, not everyone would look good. That would steal the limelight from the new couple, but after all, it was also a master of ceremonies, and there were still requirements for image quality.

This kind of mention by Yu Wan is rare in the emcee.

Seeing that the topics discussed by everyone went away and deviated, Yu Wan silently added: "It was the bride's request [covering his face]."

Friends in the group said to help her ask, Yu Wan sent a big red envelope in the group, and then ran to the wedding forum and posted a post asking for host.

At noon, Wei Shao invited her to a big meal, but he didn't eat a few bites in the rest of his work, so he made an appointment with the person in charge of a venue and went to see the venue in the afternoon.

"Mr. Wei, eat slowly, I'm going to see the venue, there is no time to eat."

Wei Shao, who was sitting across from her, smiled, "How come you, an employee, are busier than my boss?"

Yu Wan said as he cleaned up: "No way, these venues have to be booked a few months in advance, Miss Hu said, the venue must be confirmed before the Spring Festival at the latest."

She said that she took another food in her hand, and was about to leave. Wei Shao stopped her and said, "Should I take you there?"

Yu Wan waved his hand and walked out quickly: "I can take the subway."

She ran out of the restaurant, and Wei Shao laughed helplessly while looking at half of the food left on the table.

I went to see the venue in the outskirts of City A, which is also in a park. There is a church in this park, and there are usually new couples holding church weddings here.

"It's the tree, you see if it's big enough." The person in charge of the venue led Yu Wan and walked forward.Yu Wan raised his eyes and looked at the tree not far away, a little disappointed: "Is there any tree bigger than this?"

The person in charge said: "This is already the largest tree in our park, and there are other trees in the forest over there. But the trees over there are denser and do not meet your requirements."

After listening to him in the evening, I walked around the tree.At first, Hu Jiao asked that the tree must be the same as in the game, even the species must be acacia. Later, she agreed to not restrict the species, as long as they looked similar.

I went around this circle later and said sorry to the person in charge: "I'm sorry, this tree is still a bit smaller."

"It doesn't matter, the kind of tree you are talking about is not easy to find."

Yu Wan smiled and asked him: "Can I go to the forest and see again?"

"Yes." The person in charge said, "I still have something to do, so I won't be with you."

"Okay, today is really troublesome." Yu Wan watched the person in charge leave and walked towards the forest alone.

The trees in the forest grow tall, but the trunks are not thick. The acacia tree in the game requires four adults to be enclosed.Yu Wan has been shopping for a long time, but she didn't see anything suitable, so she could only take out the information and mark it out with a pen, and then go to another place.

The path in the forest was not easy to walk, and she was still wearing heeled shoes in the evening. When she passed a small slope, she accidentally fell, and her palms on the ground suddenly scratched the skin.

Yu night "hissed" and sighed helplessly while looking at the computers and documents scattered around him.She put the things back in her bag, got up from the ground, and limped back.

When I took the subway back to City A, it was past five o'clock. I didn't go to the company for the rest of the night. I changed the number of lines and went back to Lize Park.When I walked to the gate of the community, I suddenly heard someone calling myself: "After the night, what's the matter with you?"

Yu Wan carried high heels and glanced back. An off-road vehicle was parked behind him, half of the man's head stuck out from the window of the driver's seat.

He was wearing a peaked cap with a low brim, but he could recognize it by just listening to the voice. The person calling her was Li Shen.

Yu Wan opened his mouth and didn't say his name: "Oh, I accidentally got my foot just now."

Li Shen glanced at her feet wearing only socks, frowned slightly: "Get in the car, I'll send you in."

Yu Wan was afraid that he would be discovered by talking to Li Shen for too long, so he only hesitated for a moment and climbed into the car.Her socks were a little dirty, and some stains were rubbed on the white down jacket. Li Shen started the car while asking her: "Where did you go to make it like this?"

Yu Wan said: "Go and help Miss Hu see the wedding venue."

Li Shen's car slowly drove into the gate of the community. He turned his head and glanced at her ankle again: "Have you been to the doctor? Your feet are a little swollen."

Yu Wan also looked at her ankle, it was a little swollen: "It's okay, I should just go back and apply it."

"Do you have medicated liquor at home?"

"Maybe not."

Li Shen was silent for a while, and said to her: "Go to my house, I have medicinal liquor there."

"Ah? No need, right?" Yu Wan became nervous. For her, going to Li Shen's house was far more swollen than her feet.

Li Shen didn't listen to her and parked the car in front of his house.He got out of the car, rounded to the passenger seat and helped Yu Wan from the car.

The sound of a dog barking from the room seemed to know that the owner was back, Li Shen opened the door, and the Shiba Inu circled his legs.

"Don't make trouble with Lili, go in." Li Shen blocked it a little and closed the door behind him.Yu Wan heard him called "Lily" and asked subconsciously: "Isn't it called Lily?"

Li Shen was taken aback for a moment, took a look at her, and helped her walk inside: "Lily is your name."

Yu Wan's body was slightly stiff, and his thoughts turned back and forth.She lowered her head and followed Li Shen into the living room.

There was no curtain on the wall of the living room facing the garden, and the light came in through the window and hit the clean floor.The heating was turned on in the room to cut off the chill outside. Li Shen Fuyu sat down on the sofa at night, got up and went upstairs: "I'm going to get the medicinal wine, you sit for a while."

"Yeah." Yu Wan took off the down jacket and put it aside, looking around Li Shen's living room.

Opposite the sofa is the TV wall. Next to the huge LCD TV is a pot of well-growing green plants, and a guitar stands on the other side.

Yu Wan looked at it a few more times, as if trying to identify if this guitar was the one that Li Shen bought later.Shiba Inu approached her and licked her calf: "Wang."

The sudden wet itching made Yu Wan laugh. She looked at the Shiba Inu squatting in front of her and asked him, "Is your name Lili?"

"Wow." Lili looked at her, her big eyes especially attractive.

Yu Wan thought of many Shiba Inu's magic emoticons on the Internet, and couldn't help but raised his hand and pinched Lili's face.

"Haha, it really looks like an emoji bag." Yu Wan gently pulled Lili's face, listening to the sound of Li Shen's footsteps coming up from the stairs.

Yu Wan was taken aback, quickly let go of Lili's face, and put her hand behind her.

Li Shen walked over and glanced over her intentionally or unintentionally. Yu night calmed his expression, pretending that nothing happened just now.

Li Shen suddenly laughed. Yu night looked up at him, and saw him smiling and asking herself: "Is Lili's face pinched?"

Yu night: "..."

Sure enough, I saw her bullying his dog!

She pretended to be calm and replied, "It feels pretty good."

Li Shen's mouth pursed a smile, and sat down beside her: "First apply ice, then apply medicine."

As he said, he lifted Yu Wan's feet and put them on his lap, making a gesture to take off her socks.Yu Wan hurriedly bent down and held Li Shen's hand to stop him from taking off his socks: "No need, I will do it myself."

Li Shen turned his head and glanced at her: "Are you easy to do it yourself?"

"Make it right, you just let me come."

Li Shen didn't say anything. He helped Yu Wan find a few cushions so that she could raise her feet, and then put the ice pack on her bare ankles: "After applying it, wipe this soft Wine, it works."

"Yeah, thank you." Yu Wan watched him put the medicinal liquor on the coffee table in front of him, while his dog squatted at his feet, taking a nap comfortably.

...Surely there is something wrong with this situation, she should have insisted on going home just now.

Standing next to her, Li Shen noticed her red palms, frowning slightly: "Is my hand hurt too?"

"Ah, um." Yu Wan shrank her hand subconsciously, not wanting Li Shen to see it, "It's just scratching the skin."

Li Shen didn't say anything, and turned away again. When he came back, he was holding a basin in his hand.He put the basin on the ground and squatted down next to Yu Wan: "Clean up the wound, aren't you afraid of getting tetanus?"

"..." Yu Wan's feet were still on, and it was inconvenient to move, so she had to hand him her hand.Li Shen wringed out the towel, and gently wiped the palm of his hand in the rest of the night. The temperature of the water was just right, and the skin would not be too cold or too hot.

As if he was afraid of hurting her, Li Shen's movements were very gentle, but Yu Wan watched his careful movements, but felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.

Rolling up her sleeve, Li Shen cleaned the towel again, and was about to put it on Yu Wan's hand to catch a glimpse of a very shallow old scar on the inside of her arm.

His eyes condensed, and he raised his head to look at her: "How did you get this injury?"
