C18 You Are Beautiful Today

Wen Shishi's hand trembled and almost dropped the phone in the sea.

He really was on the yacht!

She bit her lips, not knowing how to reply.

"Do you want to see me?"

Mr. Sniper sent another message over.

Wen Shishi clenched her teeth and typed [Yes].

[Shishi, not yet.]

She was rejected.

She wasn't too disappointed. Didn't she know from the beginning?

He didn't want to turn on the lights and was wearing a mask. Obviously, he didn't want to reveal himself.

[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come here, I won't do that again.] She replied.

[No need to apologize. As I said, you'll never have to apologize to me. Shishi, I promise you that when the time comes, I will let you know who I really am.]

[Ok.]

The phone screen went dark, and Wen Shishi wanted to put it back in her bag, when she received another message: [You are so beautiful today.]

These five words seemed to carry a warm feeling as they penetrated in her eyes and her heart.

It was like his hot breath on her neck in the dark night and his hot words in her ear …

Wen Shishi started blushing. She quickly patted her hot cheeks, hoping the sea breeze would cool her. She didn't know why she was a little troubled. Even though she joked with Meng Xiaoxia right now, his few words had made her nervous.

Her fingers trembled slightly while typing. [Thank you.]

Before she could send it out, his phone call came through.

She heard the sound of the sea breeze and his shallow breathing. "Shishi."

"Yes."

"Don't dress like this anymore."

Ah? Didn't he just say that she was beautiful today? Why did he change his mind so quickly?

A little embarrassed, she said: "Am I very different from usual? Today's clothes were chosen for me by Meng Xiaoxia, so they might not be very suitable."

"She has good eyes," Mr. Sniper's voice was slightly hoarse: "I didn't realize that you are so beautiful in white. Shishi, try some dresses for me when you get home tonight, huh?"

Her face turned even redder.

She looked around anxiously. Fortunately, no one was here to see her turning red from head to toes.

She said softly. "Alright."

Mr. Sniper seemed to sense her shyness and nervousness and was in a good mood: "Are you shy again?"

"I'm not."

"Why do you get shy so easily?" Mr. Sniper said, "Though, I really like it."

In the end, where did this man called from?

She could hear people in the background. Was he saying such shameful things to her in front of so many people?

Wen Shishi asked him, "Are you going to stay until later today?"

Initially, I was going to stay pretty late, but now, I can't wait to go home and see you trying on the dresses.

Wen Shishi said in annoyance, "Aren't there people next to you? Speaking like that, don't you feel ..."

"Feel what?"

"Sappy?"

"Isn't that good?" Mr. Sniper said, "You don't like it?"

She liked it.

She loved it.

Only with Mr. Sniper could she feel the need, the love, the cherish.

How could she not like it?

"Shishi, let's go home. I want to see you."

"Mm. Alright."

He added, "Let Meng Xiaoxia send you back."

Wen Shishi said, "No need to trouble her, she has other friends here. I can take a taxi back."

Mr. Sniper insisted, "Let her send you back. You are so beautiful today. I can't be at ease if you go back alone."

"Ok, I'll go ask her."

"Just tell her to send you back, and that I'll give her the land her dad's company wants."

Wen Shishi found Meng Xiaoxia at the buffet table.

She had a wide range of friends and had fun sharing how she taught Sun Sijing a lesson.

Seeing that she had arrived, Meng Xiaoxia pulled her into the crowd and made her a 'grand presentation': "This is the friend I've just told you about. Well, isn't she beautiful? I didn't lie to you, see?"

The boys were well-dressed, seeming to have some status, and their looks and talk skills were all remarkable.

A man in a white suit shouted, "Oh wow, she really does look like the dragon girl! I only saw her from behind, and I already felt she was an immortal. I didn't expect her to be even more beautiful from the front! I say, Meng Xiaoxia, how can a thick-skinned person like you make friends with a goddess? I've known you for three years, and I've never heard you mention her!

Meng Xiaoxia said with a smile, "Why should I tell you? Maybe I just want to keep the beauty for myself to admire."

The other boys also had their eyes glued onto Wen Shishi. Some were amazed, some admired, some felt moved, and some seemed to be deep in thought.

Wen Shishi was not used to being watched by so many people, especially so many boys. "Xiaoxia, I want to leave. Can you send me back?"

"I'll send you off." A boy in a black suit said. "Where do you live? I was about to leave as well, so I can send you back."

The others quickly exposed him, "You think we can't tell what you are planning?! You just want to woo her!"

The boy was jeered at by them and felt a little embarrassed and annoyed, having his thoughts exposed. "You're talking about me, then which one of you doesn't want to chase after her? When Xiaoxia went with her to the stern, which one of you didn't want to follow?"

They started to laugh to hide their thoughts.

Meng Xiaoxia was overjoyed and waved her hand, "Let me tell you, my Shishi doesn't have a boyfriend yet; she's single! In front of this opportunity, everyone is equal!"

"Beep, beep ~ ~ ~"

The phone in the bag vibrated, and Mr. Sniper's message came again.

[I take back what I said just now, her father won't have that land anymore.]

Wen Shishi burst out laughing.

Could he be jealous because so many boys were courting her?

Wen Shishi decided not to expose him.

[Uncle Meng always took care of me. I mean, if it doesn't affect you, you should help him, okay?]

[Humph.]

Seeing this one word, Wen Shishi couldn't help but laugh.

Meng Xiaoxia eventually took her back to the Hilton.

As they were about to separate, Meng Xiaoxia looked at the phone and jumped in joy, "Wow, Shishi, my father just got that piece of land he couldn't get before, and only for half the sum! My pocket money for the second half of the year is coming!"

Wen Shishi was slightly surprised by Mr. Sniper's speed, but she was still genuinely happy for her friend. "That's good! Uncle Meng's good deeds will be rewarded."

"Hurry up and go in, I need to go home as well. When I get my pocket money, I'll treat you to Australian lobster!"

"Alright, be careful on the way."

She entered the familiar lobby of the Hilton Hotel and took the elevator to the 23rd floor.

She swiped her card and went inside.

Reflexively, she touched the light switch but hesitated, wondering if Mr. Sniper was back.

In the next second, a pair of powerful arms hugged her waist.

He kissed her neck from behind. "I gave the land to the Meng family for half price. How are you going to reward me?"
