She leaned gently against the wide and transparent floor-to-ceiling window, and the hazy and gorgeous light reflected on her face through the glass.

The slightly curly black silk hair is close to the melon-shaped face, fair skin, thin eyebrows, and slightly thin lips, so delicate that it looks like a painted facial features. A pair of narrowed eyes are looking down at the city in a daze, and the posture is cold and charming.

On the distant river surface, there are endless cruise ships, including colorful lanterns, flower boats, and fireworks.

On the shore, buildings, shops, vehicles, pedestrians, there are bright lights everywhere, as if it is so noisy and lively everywhere.

The neon lights like stars are reflected on the river surface, forming a prosperous reflection, as if they are proving the charm of the city and its vigorous vitality to the world.

Humans are crowded animals. Even the ascetic monks living deep in the mountains will still raise some small animals to accompany them. People are afraid of loneliness, so many people like to put themselves in the crowd and like to be in the city. The more noisy and prosperous it is, the more they feel that they are more closely related to others and have a closer relationship with the world, thus resisting the boundless loneliness from the heart.

However, even though she is now in this huge harbor city known as the "Pearl of the East" by the world, why does she still feel that she is so out of place with everything here?

This is not the first time she has come to this city, but her mood this time is completely different from before.

"Jess, what are you thinking?"

Suddenly, a gentle-sounding male voice came from behind her, and she asked her in English.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she took a last look at the light that seemed to symbolize prosperity. Then she turned around and looked into the room, shook her head gently, and replied in English: "Nothing."

Her voice was a little cold, crisp and bright, and it seemed to have a little lazy softness.

The lights in the room were not bright and a little dim, but they were enough to make people see that it was a man in his thirties, wearing a expensive brand suit, with bangs, a little small eyes, a pretty good appearance, and not tall, but it had the smell of a mature man.

Hearing her answer, the man looked at the expression on her face carefully and confirmed that she was fine. Then he showed a slightly relieved expression on his face. Then, he raised his hand and pointed the dim desk lamp beside the bedside, and asked her with a smile: "You don't like too bright lights. You often get up late recently, so I took my own initiative to ask you for this room with good lighting, so that even if you get up late, you won't be able to sleep because the lights are too bright. How about it? If you don't like it, let's change one."

"It's okay, this room is fine, thank you." Her eyes flowed gently, and she glanced at the soft light desk lamp. She pursed the corners of her mouth, smiled slightly, and said to the man with a little gratitude in her tone.

"That's good."

The man nodded and looked at her softly, "Don't think too much, isn't everything going well now? The company is on track, and the sunglasses designed by our Zhengda designer are also on the market, and everything will be well, right?"

Hearing the man's words, the corner of her lips slightly raised up again, but she didn't say anything.

"Okay, let's celebrate."

The man lowered his head and took out a bottle of red wine from the bag he brought, then went to the bar in the room to grab two goblets, walked to the dining table, raised the red wine and glass in his hand, and smiled and said, "Hey, friends over there, come with me."

She couldn't help but smile, and slowly walked to the dining table with her arms in her arms.

"cheers!"

The man handed her a wine glass with one hand, picked up his wine glass with the other, and motioned her for a moment.

She looked at the smile on the man's face, then looked down at the wine glass in her hand. The scarlet and clear wine was still shaking gently in the cup. She saw her face there and a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

Yes, it will get better.

"cheers."

She smiled and clinked glasses with the man, and then drank it all in one go.

"Oh, by the way, the Mr. Mark who you invited to help is really amazing. The problems we encountered in the past few months have been solved by his phone number. However, when I wanted to come to pay him yesterday, he told me that he was actually invited to help. Do you know the person who asked him to help?"

After taking a sip of red wine, the man seemed to remember something and asked her with a little puzzled expression on his face.

"What are you saying? I would like to thank you for your help in Hong Kong over the past few months, otherwise things won't go so smoothly."

When she heard the man's words, she smiled and thanked her for a moment, then the corner of her mouth, which was originally smiling, suddenly rose a little further, "However, I do know the person who asked Mr. Mark to help."

"Who is it?" the man asked curiously.

"Actually, I have never met him, but he is very familiar with my family. My mother often says that he is the son of the family, and Shui Jing also likes him very much, calling him Brother Sanmao."

Her head tilted, looked out the window, looked at the star flickering in the night sky in the sky, and suddenly a smile on her face looked as if it was warm and something else, as if she had thought of something beautiful.

"Brother Sanmao?"

The man raised his eyebrows and the smile on the corner of his mouth remained the same.

"My fans gave me the nickname 'maomao'. I am Damao, so Jing is Ermao. After Jing knew it, she started calling him Sanmao." She turned around and said embarrassedly.

"Brother Sanmao? It's so cute."

The man smiled, then picked up the wine glass and took another sip, his eyes full of a gentle smile, but the moment he raised the wine glass to drink, there seemed to be a trace of inexplicable expression in his eyes?

She also smiled, but the smile on her face seemed to return to the slightly reserved smile that was before.

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing. I have a friend who is pregnant. I want to give him some clothes for the baby to congratulate him. But you know, I know nothing about this kind of thing. You are a designer and should know better than me. Can you help me with your advice tomorrow?"

She was stunned for a moment, thinking that it should be not good for her to go out now, but she just wanted to refuse, but saw the man looking at her with expectant look. Her lips, which had just opened slightly, could not help but close, her brows frowned slightly, and she was hesitating.

"You have been stuck in the hotel for several days, and it's time to go out for a walk. Just think of it as going out for a walk, how about it?"

Looking at the man in front of her, who seemed to have a little concern while looking forward to it, she hesitated for a while, and finally, she nodded slowly.

...

The next day.

"Just here."

The man got out of the car and opened the car door for her. She put on sunglasses and wrapped her neck and chin tightly with a wide scarf she was wearing. Then she slowly walked out of the car and smiled at the man's gentleman, then raised her head and looked at the high-end baby products store.

The store is very good, but for some reason, she felt inexplicably depressed when she looked at the store.

"Come in."

The man stood at the door and pulled the glass door for her. She came to her senses, took a breath, and then followed the man into the store.

"Hello, sir, and miss, do I have anything to help you?"

As soon as he entered the door, a shopping guide wearing professional clothes walked up and asked in Mandarin.

The man turned his head and looked at her, smiled, and said in a strange-toned Hong Kong-style Cantonese: "We want to buy some clothes for babies."

"Oh, are you a boy or a girl?" As soon as the customer was using Hong Kong dialect, the shopping guide immediately changed to Hong Kong Cantonese and continued to ask.

"I haven't had a baby yet." The man looked at her standing beside him, who seemed a little confused, and said to the shopping guide mysteriously with a smile on his face.

"oh--"

The shopping guide looked at him, as if he understood something. He smiled at her with a standard smile on his face, and then said to the man: "Then congratulations to you two first, you come with me."

The man's smile on his face became even stronger when he heard this, but he didn't explain anything. He just turned his head and looked at her wearing a pair of big sunglasses and a thick scarf, and smiled.

"What's wrong? What were you just talking about?" She asked in confusion as she looked at the smile on the man's face.

"It's okay, but you're still dressed like this when you're in the store. Are you not afraid of others' jokes? Are you still not hot?"

The man smiled and turned to English and then took off all the sunglasses on her face and scarf on her neck.

She didn't react for a moment, and her eyes lit up. Looking at the man's faint smile with concern on his face, she lowered her head and remained silent for a moment, but still accepted his arrangement.

"Let's go and have a look."

She nodded silently and followed the man to the baby clothes area.

"Sir, this area is full of clothes that are not distinguished between men and women. If you want to buy some of them, I can take you there too."

"It's okay, let's just come here. She will come and she has the final say."

As he said that, the man glanced at her gently.

"Sir, it seems that you and your wife have a good relationship. Your wife is so beautiful, it's really enviable."

The shopping guide was complimenting next to him.

"She is not my wife yet. Just talk to her in English later. Don't mention the word "Madam". I'm afraid she will get angry."

The man smiled and then explained.

"oh……"

The shopping guide looked at her unexpectedly, not sure what he thought of.

She turned her head and looked at the two of them in confusion, her delicate faces faintly reflected the soft lights from the top of the store, looking so beautiful.

Looking at her beautiful appearance, the man narrowed his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face seemed a little lost, but then he smiled at her and said, "It's okay, I'll give you all the right to do this. You can communicate with her directly in English."

"oh oh."

She nodded in confusion, then lowered her head and began to carefully select clothes. She took out her cell phone and compared it. It seemed that she had done her homework before, and she also whispered to the shopping guide from time to time to ask what she wanted.

The man couldn't help but smile when he saw her serious look. Then he seemed to notice something, his eyes slightly moved, and looked at a customer not far from them. A strange light seemed to flash in his eyes...

"ah!"

"Are you okay? You're not hurt?"

The man stood in front of the counter, holding her with an anxious expression on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay."

She waved her hand and leaned against the man to take off her shoes. When she saw that the heels of the high heels had broken. Then she couldn't help but smile helplessly: "It seems that I really don't suit high heels, flat shoes are my true love."

"Haha," the man looked at the broken root of the high heels imperceptibly, and then said to her with a teasing smile on his face: "Look, it's our Miss Zheng's height of 220 that makes it unable to bear."

"ah!"

Her face immediately turned cold with anger. The man pretended not to see it, turned to the counter and began to ask about the price of the shopping.

When she saw that the man dared to pretend to be stupid, her face became cold on purpose. She directly "hardly" patted the man because she was being held by her hands, regardless of whether she was holding the phone in her hand.

"How much does that cost? Alas! Alas."

"puff."

The man's exaggerated expression immediately made her laugh, but after laughing, she suddenly frowned and turned to look.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh...oh, it's okay."

She finally looked at the transparent glass in the shop behind her. For some reason, she seemed to feel a palpitation at that moment...
