She is my childhood sweetheart, how could I not understand her?

Chapter 387 Their progress is a bit too fast, isn't it?

The plan is far ahead, but there's still some time until December.

Before that, Chen Shen had one more thing to do: personally drive to the airport to pick up his good brother whom he had never met before.

Although the two never actually met in person, Chen Shen and Wang Laoju chatted quite a bit online.

In particular, the two share quite similar gaming preferences.

They all like to find niche games that are not so famous but have excellent gameplay and features.

On Saturday, Chen Shen got up early and, as usual, went to the bathroom to take a shower first.

Just as she squeezed the shampoo into her hand, the previously closed bathroom door was pushed open from the outside.

Immediately afterwards, a sleepy-eyed Xu Suiyou walked in yawning, completely ignoring his shocked expression.

The girl strolled over to the toilet, sat down, and then looked up at him standing in the bathroom.

"Wash yours."

Chen Shen remained silent for a moment, then, in a fit of desperation, he poured the shampoo in his hand onto his head and began to rub it in, all the while talking to himself.

Why did you wake up so early? Did you wake up gasping for air?

"No, I'll go to the airport with you in a bit."

Chen Shen paused while washing his hair, but quickly resumed.

"Are you going too?"

Today is Saturday, which is Xu Suiyou's precious time to sleep in.

How could she bear to get up so early this time? She even said she would go to the airport with him.
"I want to meet your best friend who you're still chatting with enthusiastically at 2 a.m. What exactly attracts you to her?"

The resentment in those words made Chen Shen, who was in the bathroom, shudder. He gave an awkward grin.

He would occasionally chat with Lao Ju until late at night, after all, Lao Ju had much more experience in gaming than him, and sometimes he could give some particularly good advice.

To put it simply, after completing Slay the Spire, he specifically added a message thanking Wang Laoju, which shows how helpful it was to communicate with such a knowledgeable gaming content creator.

Besides, he had been given a chance by that person; his previous film, "Vampire Survivor," had attracted a huge amount of attention from them.

"We're both men, what are you afraid of?"

"Hmph, he brought his girlfriend with him, so of course I have to go with you too, otherwise what kind of behavior would that be?"

"Ah? Is it necessary?"

Xu Suiyou was too lazy to explain, she just muttered "idiot", then got up, and under Chen Shen's shocked gaze, she took off her camisole nightgown and walked into the bathroom with her slender legs.

The moment he held her soft, fragrant body in his arms, Chen Shen really considered having Wang Laoju and his girlfriend Mianmian take a taxi over together.
Fortunately, Xu Suiyou was very assertive at this moment.

"Hurry up and leave after you're done washing, I need to wash too!"

As Chen Shen dried his hair, he walked out of the bathroom and glanced back at the steamy space, where he could still vaguely see the girl's graceful figure.

He sighed helplessly, suddenly feeling a sense of being married.

But thinking about it carefully, he and Sui Sui have been living together for a year, which is practically the same as being married.

We eat and sleep together every day, and we've done everything we're supposed to do, except for that one certificate.

What prevents them from obtaining that certificate is not their family background, but their age.

To be honest, it's a bit hard to accept this change in identity.

Childhood sweethearts – boyfriend and girlfriend – loving couple?
So fast!

Chen Shen knew perfectly well how long it would take Sui Sui to take a bath, so instead of waiting foolishly at home, he changed his clothes and went straight upstairs. He was definitely going to have Lao Ju visit the studio today, and he even planned to have Lao Ju stay overnight.

The place he was staying at home had a place to stay. He asked Sui Sui, and she agreed, but she warned him with a serious expression that he was not allowed to play games with the other person until late at night.

Chen Shen readily agreed, but what about the specific arrangements for tonight?
How could he not know his future wife?
In this world, the only person Xu Suiyou could helplessly choose to spoil was him.
After knowing each other for so many years, surely he has some way to deal with Xu Suiyou?
What a joke!
The studio was very quiet at this time, which was not surprising, as their studio had flexible working hours; if you got up early, you could come earlier, and if you got up late, you could come later.

Liu Yujie was the least troublesome. As the relationships among everyone in the studio improved, Liu Yujie became increasingly unreasonable.

At first, he would wash up properly before getting to work, but in the last couple of days, he's gone so far as to just wash his hair, face, and brush his teeth, and then sit down to work in his pajamas.

Chen Shen decided he had to talk to this kid when he had time, since the studio did have female employees after all.

Although Fei Yang seemed to have never paid any attention to Liu Yujie's tiny, chick-like figure.
"Old Liu, stop sleeping! Old Ju and the others will be here at noon."

A moment later, Liu Yujie, who had been awakened by the knocking on the door, opened the door with a yawn.

"What time is it?"

"It's almost nine o'clock."

"Damn, weren't they supposed to arrive at eleven?"

"Isn't this quick enough? Shouldn't you wash up first?"

"I fucking only need 15 minutes to wash up!!"

"Why don't you clean up the house?"

Liu Yujie scratched his head in annoyance, yawned, and sighed, "There's so much trouble."

"Hehe, it's a bit of a hassle, people don't come all this way."

"Are you really planning to drag them here tonight to be conscripts?"

"What kind of talk is this! Discussion! Exploration! Research! Common progress? What do you mean by conscripting men?!"

Chen Shen pointed out the mistake Liu Yujie made in a serious manner.

Liu Yujie chose to ignore such sophistry.

"Why don't we just bring them all in as well?"

"Uh, then forget it. I think it's fine if the two of us are the bosses of our studio."

"That's because I'm not going to fight you for the right to speak!"

"hey-hey."

Having a partner like Liu Yujie is indeed a good thing. Chen Shen, who is used to being in charge, doesn't want someone to take over his voice.

"Are you all done cleaning up? Where are we going for lunch?"

"I'll ask him then. If all else fails, we can eat at Brother Zhang's place."

Brother Zhang is the owner of that expensive buffet restaurant nearby. They've eaten there many times, so they naturally exchanged contact information with the owner.

Well, expensive things do have their reasons for being expensive; at least the ingredients are truly high-quality.

As for the taste, he's not the kind of person who can taste the flavors of high-end dishes. It's definitely delicious, but he doesn't think it's so delicious that you'd want to bite your tongue off.

However, Chen Shen is no longer that naive young man; he understands the meaning of connections very well.

The owner of such a high-end restaurant in a bustling area is definitely worth befriending.
