“Sister, why do you think Mr. Sha is so good to us?”
The Shanshui Department Store has sparked a consumption boom in Handong Province.
For three consecutive days, the daily revenue has remained above 700,000.
Seeing Zhao Ruilong completely transform from a spoiled rich kid into a hotshot business tycoon.
Sha Baoyu finally felt at ease letting Zhao Ruilong take charge of the expansion plan for Shanshui Supermarket.
……
The Gao sisters stood at the entrance of Handong University, still unable to believe they could actually come here for college.
Yet the thin admission letter in their hands was undeniably real.
“Mr. Sha, you are really too kind.”
Gao Xiaoqin was so excited that she didn’t know what to say.
That day, while she envied the female reporter from the provincial television station.
Sha Baoyu's words, “You also have a chance,” were initially thought to be mere comforting words.
Who would have thought he actually followed through and arranged for the two sisters to attend Handong University as visiting students?
In Gao Xiaoqin's eyes, Sha Baoyu was the light illuminating her dark path in life.
“Why thank me? This is just an opportunity; whether you can seize it depends on you.”
In the original world, Gao Xiaoqin was adept at navigating social situations, and the growth of the Shanshui Group was largely due to her efforts.
Since she liked being a reporter, Sha Baoyu naturally didn’t want her to waste her talent.
So he used his connections to secure two spots for them at Handong University.
However, to his surprise, the gentle Gao Xiaofeng actually liked history.
“Living in the supermarket storage room isn’t good for you, so I found you a place to stay.”
In truth, Sha Baoyu couldn’t bear to see Gao Xiaofeng living in such poor conditions; since he decided to take her in, he naturally wanted to provide the best living conditions.
……
However, when they arrived at the Republic-era villa on Yihe Road, the sisters timidly hesitated to step inside.
“Mr. Sha, this place is too luxurious. How about we just stay in the supermarket storage?”
The exquisitely designed small villa and the beautifully landscaped garden exceeded their wildest imaginations.
“I told you to stay, so just relax and enjoy it.”
“We’re both clumsy; if we break something, we really can’t afford to pay for it.”
“This is my house; if anything gets broken, I’ll just buy a new one. You don’t need to worry about paying.”
There are a total of 26 Republic-era villas on Yihe Road, with the two most expensive ones owned by Zhong Xiaai and Zhao Xiaohui.
The Gao sisters' villa appeared relatively low-key, but what was special was that the rooms were divided on either side, separated by a corridor, allowing for privacy when the doors were closed.
……
Sha Baoyu chose this villa with some thought.
Watching his sister eagerly observe the room's decorations, Gao Xiaofeng looked at Sha Baoyu with gentle eyes.
……
“Mr. Sha, thank you.”
“For what?”
For some reason, whenever Sha Baoyu saw Gao Xiaofeng's delicate demeanor, he couldn’t help but want to tease her.
“I…”
Gao Xiaofeng felt the intense gaze of Sha Baoyu on her, and she understood his meaning. Although her heart was already given, she was still an inexperienced girl, and some things were hard for her to express.
“I’m going to check my room.”
Sha Baoyu followed the flustered Gao Xiaofeng into the room and casually glanced around.
“This place has been empty for a while; your presence will add some liveliness to it.”
“Mm…”
“We’ll see if we need anything later, and we can go shopping together.”
“Mm…”
“You look really beautiful today.”
“Ah…”
Before she knew it, while they were talking, Sha Baoyu had already moved behind Gao Xiaofeng, admiring her graceful figure, and excitedly hugged her from behind.
At that moment, Gao Xiaofeng's heart raced like a deer. Feeling the man's breath behind her, her tense body gradually relaxed, and she leaned weakly against Sha Baoyu.
“Mr. Sha…”
“My woman, just call me Baoyu…”
“Baoyu…”
This single utterance of "Baoyu" represented Gao Xiaofeng's determination to give her whole self to him.
With the beauty's consent, Sha Baoyu felt that any further inaction would be disrespectful to the woman in his arms, and he immediately made his move.
However, just then, a scream came from outside the door.
“You…
I… I didn’t see anything.”
Gao Xiaoqin had come to share her joy with her sister but was struck by the shocking scene she unexpectedly discovered. She covered her eyes and hurriedly fled.
Having been seen in such a situation by her younger sister, the shy and sensitive Gao Xiaofeng's face turned beet red.
Unable to hold back, she shot Sha Baoyu a glare but couldn’t bring herself to scold him.
Instead, she hurriedly chased after Gao Xiaoqin to explain.
Sha Baoyu let out a helpless sigh; Gao Xiaoqin really chose the perfect time to come.
