"Happy birthday, Mr. Gu."

In the office, Qin Lu put a velvet box on the desk and pushed it towards Gu Shen.

Gu Shen's birthday is advertised as the end of the year, but in fact it is early spring. Not many people know this.

Since founding Linjiang Group, Gu Shen has not celebrated his birthday again.

Firstly, he felt it was boring and didn't want to bother himself with it; secondly, this day was a disaster for him.

Before he met Shen Kexin, he often felt that he was born to suffer.

"No, take it back."

Gu Shen glanced at him and then looked away, his tone very cold.

Qin Lu lowered her eyes, her expression unchanged.

"This is a gift carefully selected by my mother. It is also a gift from Jiuxi. Please accept it."

Ever since Gu Shenyan made it clear that he didn't like his previous name, Qin Lu has always called him Mr. Gu Shen.

It's not that she hadn't thought about using a more intimate name, but seeing that Gu Shen was avoiding her as much as possible, as if he was afraid of having any connection with her, Qin Lu tactfully didn't reveal anything.

She has ambitions for Gu Shen, but they are entirely based on the fact that he is the person in power at Linjiang Group.

Apart from this, love between men and women has no meaning to Qin Lu.

Even Gu Shen's family was an obstacle to her.

Qin Lu has seen too many relationships break up and get back together. A woman who can't help Gu Shen at all, even if she loves him, will feel tired amidst all the misunderstandings and conflicts.

At this time, a marriage partner who is considerate, trouble-free, and can bring commercial benefits will become Gu Shen's first choice.

So when Shen Kexin knocked on the door and came in, Qin Lu was surprised for a moment, then smiled sincerely.

"Boss Shen, what a coincidence, you are here to give Boss Gu a birthday present as well?"

When Shen Kexin saw Qin Lu, she frowned. When she heard what she said, her annoyance with her turned into confusion.

"birthday present?"

Shen Kexin looked down at the gift bag in her hand, then looked at the red velvet box on the desk, and she understood something.

But she never knew that Gu Shen's birthday was today.

Shen Kexin reacted quickly, curled the corners of her mouth, smiled, walked up to Gu Shen, stuffed the gift bag into his hand, and kissed his cold face.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was your birthday."

Shen Kexin pretended that Qin Lu didn't exist and kissed the corner of Gu Shen's lips, then kissed his furrowed brows.

"Have fun, I'll treat you to a nice dinner after get off work, okay?"

Gu Shen raised his hand and placed it on Shen Kexin's waist: "I'm not unhappy, why are you wearing so little?"

He pulled the suit jacket off the back of the chair and put it around Shen Kexin's shoulders.

"The temperature is low today, so don't neglect your health."

The coat was not warm, but it carried the mature and low-key scent of a man, as well as the scent of hormones exuded by Gu Shen.

Shen Kexin shrank her chin and rubbed the collar of her coat: "Oh, I see."

She turned to look at Qin Lu, who had been ignored for a long time, and asked her: "The gifts have been delivered, do you have anything else to say?"

She was fully responsible for Gu Shen. Qin Lu's eyes moved between the two of them, especially staying on Gu Shen's face for too long.

She didn't believe that Gu Shen hadn't seen that picture.

But the intimate interaction between the two just now did not seem like there was any estrangement between them.

A look of doubt appeared on Qin Lu's face, but she also shook her head knowingly.

"No more, Mr. Gu, I wish you happy birthday again, I'm leaving now."

After everyone left, Shen Kexin leaned on Gu Shen's shoulder and raised her chin: "Gift, don't you want to take a look?"

Gu Shen didn't even glance at her, he hooked Shen Kexin's chin and kissed her for a few minutes.

When they separated, she panted slightly, and said in a hoarse voice with her lips pressed against his, "It's not important, just let the assistant take care of it later."

Shen Kexin raised her eyebrows slightly and pushed away Gu Shen who wanted to kiss her again.

"It's a big company after all, so the gift must be worth a lot. Wouldn't it be a loss if I don't accept it?"

As she spoke, she opened the box and was surprised when she saw the familiar watch inside.

"I saw this watch the day before yesterday and wanted to give it to you."

Shen Kexin handed the box to Gu Shen and spoke much faster.

"I clearly paid the deposit, and the salesperson said he would keep it for me, but when I went to pick it up today, he said it had been bought by someone else."

"I didn't expect that Miss Qin and I have such similar tastes that we would actually like the same watch."

Shen Kexin just said what she wanted to say without thinking too much.

Gu Shen stared at the watch that looked like flowing golden sand, and made up his mind.

I also know who posted that photo.

"It's very beautiful. You have good taste."

Gu Shen picked up the gift bag that was placed aside, opened it and saw the watch with a maple leaf dial. His eyes fell on the women's watch with a maple leaf strap on Shen Kexin's wrist, and he smiled knowingly.

"However, compared to that one, I prefer this couple's one, which suits my family status."

Shen Kexin was feeling a little resentful at first, but when she heard what Gu Shen said, the corners of her mouth curled up.

"As long as you like it."

She hugged Gu Shen's neck and sat on his legs domineeringly: "How do you want to spend your birthday today?"

"I really didn't pay much attention, but I will definitely remember it in the future and spend every year with you, okay?"

Shen Kexin leaned close to Gu Shen, touched his lips with the tip of her nose, and heard his heavy breathing.

Gu Shen closed his eyes and hugged Shen Kexin for a while: "Your promise is the best birthday gift."

"I don't want to go anywhere at night. I want to go home."

Shen Kexin nodded, resting her chin on Gu Shen: "Well, let's go home then."

On Gu Shen’s birthday, several good brothers called to express their condolences.

They knew that Gu Shen was unhappy, so they didn't rush to cause trouble for him.

Shen Kexin called Aunt Liu in advance and asked her to prepare more of Gu Shen's favorite foods.

I contacted Shen Zhijie again and asked him to go home early, preferably with a bottle of red wine.

Celebrating a birthday without wine would lack the sense of ceremony.

Shen Kexin made a call in the lounge. Although the sound insulation was good, intermittent sounds could still be heard.

Gu Shen guessed what Shen Kexin was doing, the corners of his lips curled up, and his heart was filled with honey.

When it was time to get off work, the two went home as usual.

Shen Kexin sent Uncle Chen a big red envelope on her mobile phone in advance.

The note above is [Happy 29th birthday to Mr. Gu].

So, when they got home and Gu Shen got out of the car, Chen Dongquan got out right after him, stood in front of him and said earnestly: "Boss Gu, I wish you a happy birthday. May you have this day every year."

Gu Shen's face showed a rare look of astonishment and confusion.

But when he heard the low laughter in his ear, he understood and nodded slightly.

"Thank you. I'll ask HR to give you an extra bonus later."

Uncle Chen shook his head: "No need, Madam has already given it to you."

Shen Kexin shook Gu Shen's finger without saying anything. Gu Shen glanced down and didn't discuss it with him.

"What the lady gave is what the lady gave, and what I gave is what I gave. Just take it."

Uncle Chen smiled and said, "Then I'd better obey your command."

As the car drove away, Shen Kexin hugged Gu Shen's neck from behind and rubbed his nose against it.

"Uncle Chen makes a lot of money. Just saying happy birthday will get you a bonus."

She complained: "Poor me, I said so much and prepared so much, but I got nothing."

Gu Shen touched Shen Kexin's face with the back of his hand, then took her hand and placed it on his chest.

There was warmth emanating from the place where his chest pressed against his shirt, and his heart was beating strong and hot.

Gu Shen's lips curled up, his eyes full of meaning: "I am yours, what else do you want?"

He, his heart, and all his property were in Shen Kexin's hands.

Shen Kexin couldn't stand Gu Shen saying such sweet words in a serious manner. Her ears turned red and she wanted to pull her hand back in embarrassment.

Gu Shen held her tightly, not letting her pull out, and leaned closer to ask, "Tell me, what else do you want?"

As the two of them were getting closer and closer, with their lips about to touch, Shen Zhijie suddenly pushed open the door.

"How long are you going to stand outside while we wait for your meal?"

The two separated quickly, and Shen Kexin's face was flushed, as if she was drunk.

Shen Zhijie realized that he had bumped into something and coughed, "Well, you're not paying attention. Come in quickly."

After the door closed, Shen Kexin turned around and snuggled into Gu Shen's arms, pounding him twice: "It's all your fault, it's all your fault! It's so embarrassing!"

Gu Shen stroked Shen Kexin's hair and said confidently, "We are husband and wife, this is normal."

Shen Kexin kept silent and didn't argue with this person.
