Because the candied hawthorns were all packaged and there was a bag on the outside, it was impossible to tell what was inside at a glance.
Moreover, Zhou Xuan and He Sheng had previously discussed that He Sheng would be in charge of telling Shan Yue what he wanted to eat. Therefore, Zhou Xuan would definitely think that Shan Yue had brought candied hawthorn.

“Of course it’s the candied hawthorn you want to eat. What else could it be? Isn’t He Sheng busy with the company, so he asked me to buy it for you when he sent me something. Other than this, he didn’t tell me anything else.11
Shan Yue said without hesitation, ‘1 didn’t expect the dignified President Zhou of the Zhou Corporation to eat candied hawthorn. You’re really childish.11
“This He Sheng is starting to slack off. He actually told you the mission 1 gave him. He’s really bold. He’s getting more and more outrageous. Now that he dares to order you around, will he order me around in the future?11
Although Zhou Xuan already knew the whole story, he still deliberately pretended not to know in front of Shan Yue. “As for the candied hawthorn. I’m just trying it out. I’ve stayed in the hospital for a long time, and I’m craving for this.”
“President Zhou, do you really not know that He Shenglai told me that you want to eat candied hawthorn?” Shan Yue’s eyes flashed, and even her tone was filled with teasing. “1 thought President Zhou was too embarrassed to tell me, so you sent He Sheng.”
As expected, the older the ginger, the spicier it was. Even though Shan Yue had made her words so clear, Zhou Xuan still did not panic. He remained calm.
“President Shan, you’ve really misunderstood me. 1 just asked He Sheng to deliver something to you.” Zhou Xuan’s eyes were filled with sincerity, making it difficult for anyone to continue suspecting. “I wonder if that jade bracelet met President Shan’s standards?”
Shan Yue knew that Zhou Xuan wanted to quickly change the topic, so she did not continue asking. “I’ve really made President Zhou put in a lot of effort. That jade bracelet is indeed a real good thing. It’s very suitable to wear.”
As she spoke, Shan Yue raised her arm to reveal the jade bracelet on her wrist. Against Shan Yue’s fair skin, it looked especially dazzling.

“Although I accepted President Zhou’s gift this time, part of the reason is that I’m afraid that if I don’t accept it, He Sheng won’t be able to report to you when he goes back. It’s better not to give these expensive things next time. 1 actually don’t know how to wear such ornaments.”
Shan Yue clicked her tongue, “besides, it’s only right for me to save you. I didn’t do it for money or for you to give me something. It’s the thought that counts. The expensive ones might not be good.”
Although Shan Yue’s words were very tactful, Zhou Xuan naturally understood what she meant. Precious gifts were not what she liked. Sincerity was the most important.
“I understand. 1’11 definitely make a change next time.”
As Zhou Xuan spoke, Shan Yue had already lowered her arm and opened the bag in front of her. The dense candied hawthorn skewers entered his sight.
Zhou Xuan also roughly estimated that there were forty to fifty sticks in this bag. This made the usually calm Zhou Xuan a little dumbfounded, but he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He could not imagine that Shan Yue would buy so much for him just because He Sheng had said something for him. This made him a little excited.
“He Sheng only told me that you wanted to eat candied hawthorn, but he didn’t tell me what flavor you liked to eat at that time. Therefore, 1 was very conflicted about what to buy when I bought it.”
