Chapter 390 This is what I picked personally
As night falls, the stars are like tiny diamonds inlaid in the deep sky, and the city lights echo with them, weaving a gentle picture of light and shadow.
In this city that never sleeps, on the top floor of a modern high-rise building, the floor-to-ceiling windows are half-closed. A breeze carrying the faint scent of lavender quietly enters the room, gently brushing past two figures standing side by side.
Lin Yichen, a business legend, is known as the "Iceberg President" in the industry for his extraordinary talent and stern appearance.
At this moment, the ice and snow between his brows seemed to be melted by some warm power. With an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, he was gently supporting the other person who was hanging on him - Lu Chenxi, the young master who always stirred up waves in his world.
Although Lu Chenxi is not as tall as Lin Yichen, he has a sunny smile that can illuminate all the darkness.
He leaned almost completely against Lin Yichen in an almost coquettish manner. Even if he wanted to block Lin Yichen's sight from the front, he had to stand on tiptoe. His innocence and fearlessness made people feel pity for him.
But at this moment, he chose a more intimate way. He quietly approached from behind and gently covered Lin Yichen's eyes with his hands. There was a smile in his voice, but he deliberately lowered it, trying to create a little surprise.
"Guess who I am?"
His voice was full of childlike playfulness and anticipation, as if the whole world became lively and interesting with these simple words.
Lin Yichen shook his head helplessly, but his heart was soft.
The president, who was always cold and reserved in front of this person, would unconsciously drop all his defenses when facing Lu Chenxi.
"Who else could it be?"
He deliberately prolonged his tone, with a hint of pampering in his voice.
"Who else but the most mischievous and noble young master in my family could have the guts to jump on me so brazenly?"
After hearing the answer, Lu Chenxi let go of his hand with satisfaction, jumped lightly from Lin Yichen's back, stood in front of him, with pride and joy shining in his eyes.
"Congratulations to our most handsome and impressive CEO in the universe, Mr. Fu! You guessed it right!"
He gestured exaggeratedly, as if Lin Yichen had just completed an impossible task.
Then, he approached Lin Yichen mysteriously, his bright eyes seemed to contain countless stars, flashing with anticipation.
"So, I specially prepared a gift for Mr. Fu!"
His tone was full of ritual, making this sudden surprise even more exciting.
When Lin Yichen heard this, a hint of curiosity and tenderness flashed in his eyes.
"what gift?"
He asked softly, his voice unconsciously filled with tenderness and expectation, as if even the air around them had become softer.
.......
Lu Chenxi did not answer immediately, but turned to the side, picked up an exquisite gift box from the coffee table, and slowly walked to Lin Yichen.
The gift box is wrapped with a silver ribbon and tied into a beautiful bow, which sparkles softly under the light, revealing extraordinary taste and care.
"I hand-picked this, I hope you like it."
As Lu Chenxi spoke, he carefully handed the gift box to Lin Yichen, his eyes full of desire and anxiety for the result, as if what was waiting to be judged was not only the gift, but also the emotions in his heart.
Lin Yichen took the gift box and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He gently untied the ribbon and opened the lid of the box, and what came into view was a watch with a simple yet elegant design.
The dial is set against the backdrop of the deep night sky and is inlaid with stars, as if the beauty of the entire universe is condensed in this small space.
What’s even more special is that there is a line of small words engraved on the dial: "When we are together, time will never grow old."
A hint of emotion flashed in Lin Yichen's eyes. He looked up at Lu Chenxi. His eyes, which were usually calm and steady, were unusually gentle at this moment.
"Chenxi, this..."
There was a hint of sob in his words, as if all his emotions were concentrated on these two words.
Seeing this, Lu Chenxi hurriedly stepped forward and gently held Lin Yichen's hand.
"I know you're always so busy and time never seems to be enough for you. I hope this watch can be with you, reminding you to rest even when you're busy. And, more importantly, remember that no matter how late it is, I'm here for you."
His voice was gentle yet firm, and every word seemed to strike directly on Lin Yichen's heart, causing ripples.
Lin Yichen felt the warmth of his palm and the heavy affection in it. He held Lu Chenxi's hand tightly, his eyes flashing with unprecedented tenderness and determination.
"Chenxi, thank you. This is the most precious gift I have ever received."
The two smiled at each other. There was no need for words. Their feelings for each other were best expressed in this tacit understanding.
The night outside the window seems even gentler. The twinkling lights and the warm atmosphere indoors are intertwined to form the most beautiful picture.
However, good times are always short-lived.
Just as the two were immersed in each other's world, a rapid ring of a cell phone broke the silence.
Lin Yichen frowned and picked up the phone. The anxious voice of his assistant came from the other end, informing him that there was an emergency in the company and he needed to deal with it immediately.
Lin Yichen hung up the phone, a trace of guilt flashing in his eyes. He looked at Lu Chenxi, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Lu Chenxi seemed to understand his thoughts and patted his shoulder with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. Work is more important. You go first, I'll wait for you to come back."
Lin Yichen nodded, quickly tidied his clothes, turned around and left.
Lu Chenxi watched his back disappear at the door, and a sense of loss rose in his heart.
But he understood that this was Lin Yichen's life, and responsibility and career always came first.
He took a deep breath and decided to turn this longing into motivation, waiting for the next time they meet.
Outside the window, the night is still beautiful, but there is an extra worry in the hearts of both of them.
They know that no matter how many difficulties and challenges lie ahead, as long as they support each other, they can overcome the storms together and embrace a better future.
