Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Giving a Watch

Jiang Cheng’s heartbeat suddenly sped up.

An untimely thought popped into her head: Did this man go to study how to date?

These words, this magnetically seductive voice is just too much!

She had a tiny uncontrollable urge in her guilty hands!

Somewhere Jiang Cheng couldn’t see, Shen Que’s ears were bright red, but his eyes were full of expectation.

He could tell from Jiang Cheng’s reaction that she liked listening to him.

Shen Que was a bit excited too, but he still remembered that they were in the courtyard.

So, when Jiang Cheng was hesitantly about to reach out, Shen Que stepped back, returning to his original position.

Jiang Cheng glanced regretfully over Shen Que’s abdomen.

A cold wind blew against her face, clearing her mind a bit.

"Wait for me a moment!"

Jiang Cheng ran back into the room and came out holding a few books and a box.

"These are for you."

Shen Que took them.

The books were about mechanics.

The box?

"This is a watch. I saw it at a foreign exchange store and thought it would suit you well."

Shen Que watched as Jiang Cheng opened the watch box and took out the watch.

Leather strap, large dial, designed simply and neatly.

Jiang Cheng held the watch in one hand and raised the other to reveal her wrist.

"It’s a pair!"

Shen Que’s eyes lit up as he held the books in one hand, anxiously stretching out his other wrist.

"Put it on me, okay?"

"Okay!"

Jiang Cheng took the watch off Shen Que’s wrist and personally helped him put on the watch she gave.

At the moment the watch was fastened, Jiang Cheng placed her wrist next to Shen Que’s, one big, one small, one thick, one thin.

"Looks really nice!"

"Yes, perfectly matched."

Shen Que’s words made Jiang Cheng smile and look at him.

"Did you smear honey on your lips? So sweet?"

Shen Que placed one foot on the step, leaning forward, his burning gaze landing near Jiang Cheng’s lips.

Seeming to invite: Care to taste?

Jiang Cheng was indeed a bit tempted, ready to steal a quick kiss.

"Creak———"

The sound of the door opening interrupted them.

Shen Que stepped back two paces, and Jiang Cheng looked up at the sky.

Sun Aiguo, in the midst of putting on his jacket, was caught in motion, unsure whether to advance or retreat as he looked at Shen Que and Jiang Cheng. He wished he could disappear on the spot.

Jiang Cheng chuckled inwardly and said solemnly, "Mr. Shen, good night."

"Mr. Jiang, good night."

Jiang Cheng nodded and closed the door.

Shen Que tucked the watch into his pants pocket while holding the books and glanced at the nighttime trip to the bathroom Sun Aiguo.

Sun Aiguo looked anxious, clutching his stomach, "Brother Shen, I— I— my stomach isn’t cooperating!"

Shen Que, a few years older, had Sun Aiguo always tagging along since childhood.

"You’d better hurry!"

"Oh!"

Given a reprieve, Sun Aiguo yelped and ran out of the compound.

Shen Que shook his head, gazing slightly regretfully at Jiang Cheng’s door.

But the next second, he smiled again.

Jiang Cheng is so adorable.

Feeling content, Shen Que returned to the Shen Family and had a meal Grandma Shen left for him.

After a simple wash, Shen Que carefully placed the watch Jiang Cheng gave him on the innermost edge of the bed, patted it twice with his palm, and went to sleep.

That night, Shen Que slept particularly soundly.

Probably because he knew the person he cared about was just next door.

The next morning, when Jiang Cheng arrived, she saw Shen Xing with eyes full of tears.

"Big Brother, I will not let you down. I’ll study hard!"

Shen Xing was holding a watch in his hand.

As soon as Jiang Cheng saw the watch, she understood what Shen Que was doing.

He was motivating Shen Xing!

"Good! I believe you. This watch has been with me for many years, giving it to you today because you now have the responsibility of a man."
