Chapter 317: Chapter 164 (Pleasant View) Visiting Zhou Shumei’s Home, She’s the Only One There, Nervous!_3

Zhou Shumei became curious, "Then how were you so sure I would want this piece?"

"I wasn’t sure, but I knew the store would be fine with making adjustments, and I had to fulfill my promise to buy you clothes," Gao Jun said cheerfully.

At this point, Zhou Shumei was totally impressed by Gao Jun’s actions.

During the short time she spent with him, she not only rediscovered her youthful feeling but also experienced the immediate sense of being cared for.

Zhou Shumei looked at the new clothes and eventually had the sales clerk snip off the tag.

She planned to wear this outfit home.

However, Gao Jun didn’t intend to let her go back yet.

After leaving the clothing store, he suggested that Zhou Shumei go to the café across the street to take pictures.

"How can we not take a few pictures in such lovely clothes?" Gao Jun proposed.

Zhou Shumei thought that she had nothing better to do at home and decided it would be nicer to spend more time with Gao Jun.

So she agreed.

After they arrived at the café and ordered two cups of coffee,

Gao Jun took out his phone to snap photos of Zhou Shumei.

"Shumei, look this way at me," he directed.

"Rest your hand on your leg."

"Yes, just like that," he affirmed.

Soon, a photo was produced.

In the expression captured by the photo, Zhou Shumei was very happy.

Her eyes were filled with love.

Because the person across from her was Gao Jun.

Gao Jun praised her, "At first, I thought the logo on this shirt was too simple and not very attractive, but now I think it’s the perfect finishing touch."

"The perfect finishing touch?" Zhou Shumei was taken aback for a moment before looking down at it.

That’s when she realized the location of the leaf on the clothing was actually on her...

Zhou Shumei then gently tapped Gao Jun on the head and whispered in critique, "Look at you, with such a naughty mind~"

Although Gao Jun was tapped, it lacked force, indicating that she wasn’t truly angry.

He continued to test the waters, "There’s nothing naughty about it, I am now admiring Sister with an appreciative eye."

"We can’t go on talking about this," Zhou Shumei interrupted, "You’re flirting with a married woman right now~"

"Alright, alright, I’ll say no more," Gao Jun chuckled.

Actually, if it were someone else, Zhou Shumei might have called the police by now,

accusing him of sexual harassment.

The reason she could still jest and laugh was that she had a soft spot for Gao Jun.

It all comes down to the face and the vibe, after all.

Otherwise, the same words said by a different person would have been from a creepy guy.

After staying for an hour, Gao Jun finally stood up and said, "Alright, Shumei, I’ve got to go. Let’s head back."

"Okay."

Zhou Shumei suddenly remembered something and took the bag from Gao Jun’s hand, saying, "I’ll wash this clothing for you, after all, it got stained with ink because you were protecting my painting."

"Well then, I’ll accept your kind offer," Gao Jun replied with a smile.

The two bid each other farewell.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Shumei watched Gao Jun’s retreating figure.

A smile couldn’t help but curl at the corners of her mouth.

It had been a long time since she felt this way.

Warm and very considerate.

She glanced at the passenger seat where Gao Jun’s clothes were in the bag.

She usually tossed clothes into the washing machine,

but this time, Zhou Shumei decided to wash Gao Jun’s clothes by hand.

Not for any other reason but because Gao Jun had brought her a great deal of emotional value and had cheered her up, something her husband Lin Beishan and her son Lin Chen couldn’t provide.

If Zhou Shumei had merely regarded Gao Jun as a son previously,

now everything had changed.

Her gaze that was once familial began to reveal strands of secret admiration.

Of course,

Zhou Shumei knew such a shift in feelings was immoral.

But then she thought of how Lin Beishan had behaved similarly.

And without a hint of guilt, she thought to herself,

[If he can do that, why can’t I?]

Then she slammed her foot on the accelerator, heading home.

Upon arriving, Zhou Shumei hurriedly took the clothes to the bathroom.

She scrubbed away at the garment, and the paint slowly faded.

When a clean shirt emerged before her,

Zhou Shumei took a photo with her phone.

Zhou Shumei: [It’ll be ready to wear after it dries~ I’ve washed it clean.]

Soon, Gao Jun replied: [You’re amazing, Shumei.]

Zhou Shumei felt flattered by his praise.

Even for washing a shirt, to be complimented like this,

Who could stand it?

Zhou Shumei: [I’ll bring it to you when I’m free tomorrow.]

Gao Jun: [Great, but what if someone at your home...]

Zhou Shumei: [Don’t worry, I’m alone at home.]

After replying to that,

Zhou Shumei felt like she had a lot more to vent to Gao Jun.

After mulling it over for a while,

She finally began to type.

Zhou Shumei: [Actually, my relationship with my husband isn’t good, he’s gone abroad for quite a few days now, and since arguing with me, my son hasn’t come back for a long time, now I...]

Zhou Shumei: [I feel like an empty-nester.]

Gao Jun: [Not at all, Shumei, you still have me, your little brother.]

Seeing this message, Zhou Shumei suddenly felt the urge to cry.

Zhou Shumei: [Thank you, little brother.]

Gao Jun: [We’re siblings, no need for thanks. I’ll come get the shirt when I’m free tomorrow.]

"Come here to pick up the shirt?"

Zhou Shumei felt a mix of nervousness and anticipation upon reading this.

Looking at the white shirt, then at the photo on her phone of herself with Gao Jun,

She swallowed with longing.

Then she closed the bathroom door and busied herself...
