Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Shuoguo Group experienced explosive growth, and it lacked everything except people. Zhu Mingyu's personal abilities were average, but he was mainly known for his integrity. He signed so many "washed-up stars" and was willing to sell company shares rather than reduce their benefits. This alone speaks volumes! Therefore, after Li Shuo took control of Qianyu Times, he not only made Zhu Mingyu the president, but also indirectly increased his responsibilities along with this wave of growth.

After arranging the follow-up negotiations and signing between Shuoguo Culture and Forest Beverage, Li Yitong was left at the company. Li Shuo left the company before Lan Ying'er, and on the way, he asked Li Qinghe to prepare flowers, gifts and other romantic items before returning to the Royal Garden Community.

This is the first precious gift Li Shuo has received since his rebirth: the house in the community is registered in his name, a gift from Lan Ying'er.

However, Li Shuo didn't stay for many days at all. After receiving the gift, Shuoguo Assets settled down in Beijing and bought an apartment building. Whenever Li Shuo came to Beijing, he either stayed somewhere or slept in a hotel. He only came here when he was with Lan Ying'er.

With a "ding," the fingerprint unlocked, and Li Shuo went straight inside. He was carrying many things, preparing to reward Lan Ying'er well tonight: not only because he had promised Lan Ying'er that he would come, but also because today was actually Lan Ying'er's birthday!
This girl went to work as usual today, acting like nothing had happened. Of course, she hadn't forgotten her birthday; she was just hoping her boyfriend would remember and give her a big surprise.

In his previous life, a similar situation would have been a huge pitfall. Fortunately, Li Shuo had the assistance of his secretary's office. Whenever the Pisces had a birthday, he would at least have the secretary's office mail them a gift. After the gift arrived, he would call to inquire about their well-being, maximizing their emotional value!
Of course, other Valentine's Days don't offer this kind of treatment, since there are too many fish and Li Shuo simply can't spare the time...

When placing food on the table, Li Shuo accidentally spilled some soup on his clothes. He didn't pay much attention, took them off, and prepared to take a shower and change his clothes...

However, as soon as he stepped into the bathroom, he heard the sound of rushing water. Through the frosted glass, he could clearly see the exquisite S-shaped curves inside...

Although Li Shuo knew Lan Ying'er was still at Shuoguo Culture, he still chuckled and said, "You little devil, did you know I was coming? You've already washed yourself and are waiting for me, smelling so sweet..."

The four beauties of the Central Academy of Drama used to live in the campus dormitory, but after Lan Ying'er bought this house, the other three beauties lived here for a while. Later, Zhao Ziying had a role to play, and Song Cheche was arranged by Li Shuo to move into the apartment building of Shuoguo Assets. So, who was left here is self-evident!

The water inside stopped abruptly with a "whoosh," and after about ten seconds, the sliding door was automatically pulled open, revealing Qiao Yuxin's smooth and flawless body. Then she realized what was happening, cried out "Ah!" and covered her private parts, stammering, "Li, Li Shuo, what are you doing here..."

Is this girl truly naive and innocent, or is she a talented actress?

Li Shuo stared dumbfounded at the spring scenery before him. He admitted that he had been thinking about flirting with the other three beauties from the Central Academy of Drama, which was why he pretended to be stupid and shouted like that. But he really didn't expect that Qiao Yuxin would do such a thing as "directly opening the door"!

The key point is, this girl has the biggest breasts of the four beauties, easily estimated to be over 36D, how could a small hand possibly cover them completely! And there's more...

Li Shuo's gaze was about to move downwards when he immediately realized something, turned around quickly, and exclaimed, "Qiao Yuxin, it's you! Hurry up and put your clothes on..."

"Ah~"

Qiao Yuxin gasped in surprise, hurriedly wrapping herself in a bath towel: "Um, Li Shuo, I... right, what are you doing here?"

“This is my home, my name is on the property deed, why can’t I be here?” Li Shuo said irritably, turning around naturally as he spoke.

Yes, although the bath towel was loose, her long black hair, still wet from her shower, draped around Qiao Yuxin's pretty face, giving her a unique charm.

All I can say is that she truly deserves to be the most popular campus belle at the Central Academy of Drama; this girl is exactly what Li Shuo's XP (extracurricular activity) is all about!
"Um, I'm sorry."

Qiao Yuxin actually apologized, then stammered, "I...I don't want to live in the dorms, I'm always bothered by the boys on campus...so...um..."

"It's alright. I think Ying'er mentioned that you live here. Hmm, it was my fault this time. I'll go out first, you can wipe yourself clean before you come out..."

Having gained almost every advantage, Li Shuo leisurely walked out of the bathroom, strode into the living room, unwrapped one of the gifts he had given to Lan Ying'er, and then went back to the bathroom.

"click"

As if he had forgotten to give prior notice, Li Shuo barged in again!
"Oh, what brings you here again?"

Qiao Yuxin, having untied her bath towel, seemed to only now understand what had just happened. Her pretty face was flushed, but when she saw Li Shuo return, she didn't scold him much; she just stared at him with wide eyes.

"I'm sorry... Okay, I forgot to say hello again, but it's not the first time, so I won't keep apologizing..."

The first part of the sentence made Qiao Yuxin's eyebrows furrow. Even if she was naive, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. But the second part, "Here, this is a gift for you. Yuxin, don't tell Lan Ying'er about this..."

"LV's limited edition spring collection!"

Instantly, Qiao Yuxin's beautiful eyes lit up, her anger turning to joy, and she said with a giggle, "Oh, Brother Shuo is so generous! Don't worry, we used to live here and often walked around the living room naked, it's nothing..."

Okay, this girl is really naive!
Li Shuo thought to himself, and was about to leave when he heard Qiao Yuxin say again, "What? Are you afraid Lan Ying'er will be jealous if she finds out? Don't worry, she's already tolerated you being with Jin Chen and that school beauty surnamed Li, how could she be jealous?"

Li Shuo shook his head and replied gently, "No, I'm afraid Ying'er will be unhappy if she finds out. After all, you're different from Jin Chen and the others. We're completely innocent."

"Hehe, who's innocent with you? You've seen her naked!"

It's clear that the simpleton meant to joke, but he was actually making a joke about the girl's innocence.

Li Shuo's face darkened, and he reached out to pinch the simple-minded cheek: "Hey, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I just turned my head in time and didn't see anything!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yuxin curled her lip and said, "Tch, I initially thought you were quite different, but now it seems you're just a coward..."

She wasn't just naive; her words and actions matched. A few days ago, Li Shuo gifted Lan Ying'er a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, which made the three beauties from the Central Academy of Drama extremely envious. "Brother Shuo" once again replaced "Li Shuo" and became a popular term among the best friends! Compared to the other two beauties, Qiao Yuxin directly believed that Li Shuo was still a super warm-hearted man and didn't dislike him. So, she was naturally unprepared for the sudden incident.

"Hehe, I won't be provoked by you. Hurry up and change your clothes and come out to help me with some chores..."

"What work are you doing? Hey, wait for me..."

"Pfft, you're changing your clothes and leaving me to wait inside?"

Li Shuo chuckled and shook his head, but being with this simple-minded girl felt completely effortless and stress-free—a feeling he never experienced with any other fish. Even with the women in his secretary's office who were utterly devoted to him, Li Shuo had to consider their feelings and even their interests; he was nowhere near as comfortable as he was with Qiao Yuxin. "So, this girl is not only beautiful, but she's also full of virtues..."

Li Shuo muttered something outside the door, then didn't start working immediately. Instead, he waited for Qiao Yuxin to change her clothes and come out so that she could help with things like plating and hanging ambient light strips.

It wasn't until Li Shuo took the large cake out of the box that Qiao Yuxin realized, "Oh right, today is Lan Ying'er's birthday!"

Then she shouted angrily, "Oh, so this guy didn't even tell me it was his birthday!"

Li Shuo chuckled: "Of course, she wants to spend her birthday alone with her boyfriend and have a fun and exciting night. Why would she want to talk to you girlfriends?"

"You, you, you jerk! We've known each other for ages, and our feelings for each other are much deeper!"

"Oh"

Li Shuo leaned closer to Qiao Yuxin and winked, "So, what just happened, does that count as you betraying your best friend?"

"Huh? Does that count too?"

Qiao Yuxin was stunned for a moment, which made Li Shuo burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha"

Now that Qiao Yuxin knew about the birthday celebration for Lan Ying'er, Song Cheche and Zhao Ziying naturally had to be notified as well. Around 5 p.m., the two women arrived one after the other. Looking at the newly decorated house, they couldn't help but tease Li Shuo for being such a sweetheart, and the praise was endless.

While they were chatting, a text message came into Li Shuo's phone. He glanced at it and immediately said seriously, "Lan Ying'er is back. You all need to hide for a bit!"

As he spoke, he led the three beauties from the Central Academy of Drama into the first guest room in the corridor.

Li Shuo hadn't listened for two minutes in the quiet living room when the door unlocked. Lan Ying'er opened the door and called out, "Honey, I'm home. Are you home?"

After speaking, the person walked inside and saw colorful strips hanging in the room, a red carpet spread in the corridor, and many colorful balloons hanging from the ceiling. Among them, four red balloons were large and eye-catching, with the words "Happy Birthday" on them!
"Ahhh, you...you actually knew!"

Lan Ying'er screamed excitedly. If a woman deliberately hides her special day and the man remembers it and brings her a "surprise" that satisfies her, then she will think that the two are soulmates and a match made in heaven. The feeling of happiness at that moment is explosive!
Li Shuo smiled and opened his arms to pull her into his embrace, saying softly, "How could I forget the birthday of my favorite woman? The Cullinan from a few days ago was supposed to be a gift for today, but there was a China-Korea Song Festival, so I gave it to her ahead of time. You won't blame me, will you?"

"No, how could this be..."

"That's good. I chased Li Yitong away and hung up countless phone calls just to be with you. Tonight, you are the most important person to me... oh no, you will always be the most important person in my heart..."

Lips met lips, sweet words flowed endlessly, and Lan Ying'er's pretty face was filled with intoxication as she began to kiss him with gusto...

Moreover, since they were already an old married couple, Lan Ying'er, overcome with emotion, lightly jumped off her shoes and grinned coquettishly, saying, "Husband, carry me to the room, I want...you******."

A string of profanities burst from Lan Ying'er's red lips. Almost simultaneously, as agreed with Li Shuo, Zhao Ziying and Song Cheche pushed a cake cart, Qiao Yuxin opened the door, and the three best friends came out of the room, and then...

"Forehead"

Lan Ying'er hiccuped instantly, and Li Shuo could even clearly feel that her originally soft and hot body stiffened at this moment!

After a three-second silence, Song Cheche, who was quick-witted and had seen Li Shuo and Reba together before, teased, "Oh dear, it seems we shouldn't be here. But we never expected that Ying'er would be with Li Shuo. Why is it so different from usual?"

Qiao Yuxin immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, you were a super rich and beautiful girl with an elegant demeanor at school! Wow, Ying'er, the contrast between you is too big!"

Zhao Ziying suppressed a laugh and pretended to scold Qiao Yuxin: "Idiot, how can that be the same? Ying'er is with the man closest to her, her heart was opened up to her a long time ago... well, no, it's more like her soul was opened up to her..."

Lan Ying'er, teased by her best friend, could only bury her head in Li Shuo's arms and pretend to be dead!

Oh my god, how come these three guys are here too? Oh no, I'm going to be in big trouble!

"Uh, it's my fault... Ying'er, I wanted to surprise you, so I invited all three of them..."

Li Shuo seemed to be apologizing in a serious manner, but he picked up Lan Ying'er and put her directly on the sofa, leaving her to face the "cruel" gazes of her three best friends.

"Pah! It's all your fault!"

Lan Ying'er wasn't that silly girl Qiao Yuxin; she immediately started throwing small punches at Li Shuo!
"Ha ha ha ha"

Amidst Li Shuo's burst of laughter, he darted behind Song's car, but the shrewd woman didn't care about his life or death. She quickly dodged away, and Li Shuo then slipped behind Qiao Yuxin. This simpleton even spread her arms wide, protecting Li Shuo like an eagle catching a chick, while yelling at Lan Ying'er, "Brother Shuo is here to give you a surprise, why are you blaming Brother Shuo..."

"Qiao Yuxin, ahhh, you traitor!"

Lan Ying'er lunged forward, only to find herself wrestling with Qiao Yuxin. Everyone else in the room either burst into laughter or fell silent, filling the room with a joyful atmosphere...

After the laughter and commotion, everyone started the birthday celebration. First, they sat together at the table and toasted each other. After drinking for a while, Qiao Yuxin suggested playing a truth or dare game, and naturally, Li Shuo, the only boy, became the target of everyone's criticism.

"I won! Shuo-ge'er, your punishment is to pick up Lan Ying'er and give her a wet kiss..."

At first, it was fine; it was just a punishment for the young couple. But Song Cheche had other ulterior motives. After she won, she immediately announced that Li Shuo would have to hug Qiao Yuxin for one minute. From then on, the game started to go a bit too far… (End of Chapter)
