Kiss of Venus: Chapter 60


What’s more exciting than winning three awards in one night? After winning the awards, he found out that his grandmother-in-law wants to meet him!
    
He looked at his phone for a while and turned to Gu Xin, “Have you been to Chen Shishi’s house?”
    
“Of course.”
    
“Were you nervous?”
     
Gu Xin looked at him, “Are you going to meet her parents?”Although he said before that whether he wins an award is related to whether he can get married, isn’t this moving a little too fast??
    
Li Shen coughed and nodded. Although he had already met Yu Wan's mother, it is different this time since he is going to her hometown.
    
“Good luck.” Gu Xin simply said and patted him on the shoulder. 

Li Shen, “....”
    
He exhaled and replied to Yu Wan’s message. 
    
Ah Shen: Of course I will be free. 
    
Ah Shen: Wait for me to come home

Lily: Okay
    
There is a room in Li Shen’s villa dedicated to his songwriting. There is a large display cabinet in the room specifically made to display trophies. When she first moved in, this display cabinet was still empty. In just one year, two rows were already filled with large and small trophies. At this rate, a new display cabinet might need to be added soon. 
    
Yu Wan felt a sense of accomplishment looking at the newly added trophies as if they were her own. She opened the champagne she had prepared for Li Shen and clinked glasses with him, “Congratulations, I hope you will continue to work hard in the future.”
    
“Thank you.” Li Shen smiled and sipped the champagne, “But Gu Xin said if I win the best album award, he will change his wedding plans.”

“....” Huh???
    
Looking at Yu Wan’s dumbstruck expression, Li Shen smiled and rubbed her hair, “I was joking.”

“…”
    
She took a sip of champagne feeling a bit overwhelmed. Just as she was about to take a second sip, Li Shen took her glass away. “Drink less.”
    
“I’ll just have one glass.” Yu Wan snatched back the glass he took and downed the entire glass.  Li Shen frowned. The champagne is cold. Since she drank in one gulp, her stomach will hurt later. 
    
He put the champagne back into the cabinet and took the empty glass from Yu Wan, “Well, the celebration is over. You should rest early.”

"Oh..." Yu Wan replied and obediently went back to the room to sleep.
    
After Li Shen took a shower, he crawled into the quilt as he had done countless times before, and circled his arms around her from behind. Feeling a warm chest on her back, Yu Wan subconsciously shrank into Li Shen's arms.
    
“Wanwan.” Li Shen pressed his lips against her ear and whispered, “Are you asleep?”
    
"Not yet." Yu Wan responded lazily.
    
Li Shen hugged her tightly again, a hint of sluggishness in his voice "What does your grandma like?"
    
“Well, she likes you.”
    
Li Shen laughed lowly, and bit her ea,  "I should bring some gifts, right? I need to prepare something for your parents."

"Hmm..." Yu Wan thinks it makes sense. However, she is too comfortable in Li Shen's arms to think right now, "I will make a list tomorrow."
    
“Ok.”
    
“Then good night.”
    
Li Shen opened his eyes, looked at her, and then blew into her ear, "Are you really going to sleep?"

“En, sleepy….”
    
Li Shen saw that she is really sleepy and didn’t bother her anymore, “Then good night.”
    
He kissed her gently on the shoulder. 
    
After the award show, the enthusiasm did not immediately pass. Li Shen’s incredible win was largely discussed the entire night. At the same time, the rumors of Li Shen going to Guangchen started to hold more ground. His fans have launched a heated discussion online. 
    
“To be honest, although I am also dissatisfied with Xingyao, Guangchen can’t compare to Xingyao’s star-making capabilities. Li Shen became so popular in a little more than a year after his debut. In addition to his personal strength, he can separate from Xingyao’s operations.”
    
“I don’t agree with upstairs. Xingyao is really good at creating idols but Li Shen is not an idol. Xingyao’s idol management will only limit his future development. When it comes to creating music, there is nothing that can compare to Guangchen.”
    
“I also think Guangchen is better. If Brother Shen wants to expand internationally, he must choose Guangchen. It is impossible to count on Xingyao.”
    
“Hahaha, wants to go international. Your fans are really confident.”
    
“The haters are coming. Everyone, ignore them [smile]”
    
“I am optimistic about Xingyao. Although they don’t have any long-term visions and the idols they create are only popular for a short time, they are aware of their flaws. That might be why they created a marriage alliance with Huanyu Film. They will definitely have more movie resources in the future, and their artists will have more room for development. "
    
“Forget about it. Huanyu had finally gained some reputation over the years. Let Xingyao's idols act in Huanyu's movies? I’m afraid it’s only going to backfire [pick nose]"
    
“Wow. So if Brother Shen really switches companies, he won’t be able to sing for Huanyu movies in the future?”
    
“What are you talking about. Hu family and Yu family are connected through marriage but Huanyu Film isn’t completely under the Yu family. There are many other shareholders.”
    
“Every time I see these kinds of posts, I feel that all the fans are big shots in the circle. They know better than celebrities on how to develop in the future.”
    
The discussion on the Internet was fierce, but Li Shen never responded. Now, the biggest thing worrying him isn’t whether he should switch companies, but it is meeting Yu Wan’s family in her hometown.

When he and Yu Wan first got together, Yu Wan secretly went to A City so she rarely mentioned her hometown to him. At that time, he didn’t know Yu Wan was from an affluent family. 

Yu Wan has a villa and a luxury car in C City, both of which were bought for her by her father. Li Shen only knew about this when he met his mother last time. 
    
Fortunately, he can afford to buy villas and luxury cars now, so Yu Wan won’t have to downgrade after being with him. 
    
Yu Wan herself never minded these things, after all, she is a person who wants to buy a villa and a luxury car by herself. After she finishes Gu Xin's wedding, she will open herself to more opportunities. 

Yu Wan arranged to complete her work in advance so she can return to her hometown with Li Shen. In the early morning of the 24th, Li Shen and Yu Wan drove to C City in his off-roading vehicle. 
    
The back seat of the car was full of gifts for her family. If Yu Wan hadn’t stopped him, he would buy more.
    
Because Yu Wan said her grandmother likes his songs, he specially brought with him a physical copy of his album for her. 
    
Yu Wan saw Li Shen looking very solemn and proposed, “Why don’t I drive when we get to the next rest stop.”
    
“No, this is a big car. Your license does not allow you to drive it.”
    
“Then relax, don’t be so nervous.”
    
Li Shen exhaled, “This is my first time visiting a girl’s home.”
    
Yu Wan smiled, “This is also my first time bringing a boy home. Don’t worry, my family must be nervous too.”
    
Li Shen finally smiled, “Your mother doesn’t look like someone who will get nervous.”
    
“Uh, my family also has my dad and grandma. This is their first time meeting you so they must be nervous.”
    
Li Shen smiled at her and turned back to the road. 

Yu Wan sat next to him and dealt with some work on her phone. Along the way, she checked Weibo. Today is Li Shen’s 25th birthday. His fans have been celebrating his birthday since last night. 
    
“Did you see the screen banner your fans bought for you? It’s very big and prestigious.”
    
Li Shen went to Weibo in the early morning and thanked his fans and family for their blessings. He also saw the banner that Yu Wan is talking about is on the hot search.
    
He nodded his head as Yu Wan sighed, “Fans are really prodigal these days. But then again, you are giving so many gifts to my family for your birthday.”
    
Yu Wan thought of this and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
    
“I am going to your house for dinner. Your grandmother is cooking in the kitchen for me.”
    
“Me too! I spent an entire day learning to bake a cake from Tangtang so that I can make a birthday cake for you in the afternoon!”
    
Li Shen laughed, “I am looking forward to it very much.”
    
After the three-hour-long journey, the car finally stopped in front of Yu Wan's house. Li Shen and Yu Wan got out of the car. As soon as they took out the large and small packages of gifts from the car, the door was opened and Yu Wan's mother walked out with Yu Wan's grandmother.
    
Yu Wan saw her grandmother coming over and greeted her, "Grandma, why are you out? Just wait for us inside."
    
Grandma smiled and pulled her hand as her eyes fell on Li Shen. Because today is an official visit to Yu Wan's home, Li Shen deliberately wore a suit with a navy blue long coat over it, which made him look even more slender.  
    
“This is Li Shen? You are even more handsome than on TV.” Grandma studied Li Shen in front of her and smiled so wide that she couldn’t close her mouth. 
    
"Hello grandma, I am Yu Wan’s boyfriend, Li Shen."
    
 Her smile became brighter when she heard Li Shen call her grandma, "Hello, hello, come in, it's cold outside."
    
Yu Wan cast a sideways glance at Li Shen and took his hand. 
    
Yu Wan’s father had been looking out the window in the living room. When he heard them coming in, he quickly sat on the sofa and pretended he was reading the newspaper. 
    
“Dad, I’m back.” Yu Wan called to him as she took Li Shen to the living room. At this time, Yu Wan’s father put down the newspaper and stood up, “Oh, you’re home. That’s great.”
    
“This is my boyfriend, Li Shen. Oh, these are some gifts from him.” Yu Wan put the bag on the coffee table.”
    
“You came back, there is no need to bring so many gifts.” Yu Wan's father glanced at the coffee table, then his eyes fell back to Li Shen.
    
Not to mention, this young man looks better in person than on camera. 
    
“Hello, uncle. I’m Li Shen. Sorry for bothering you today.”
    
“No, no. Today is your birthday. You shouldn’t be giving anything.”
    
Li Shen smiled, “It is what I ought to do.”
    
“Don’t just stand there, sit.” Grandma asked them to sit down and remembered the soup she is boiling in the kitchen, “I’m going to go to the kitchen to check on the dishes. I made a lot of delicious dishes today. You must have a good taste."
    
"Grandma, let me go with you." Yu Wan stood up, fearing that it would be inconvenient for Grandma to be alone. Grandma waved her hand hurriedly and said, "No, you can stay with Li Shen, don't leave him alone."
    
She winked at Yu Wan ambiguously.

Yu Wan, “....”
    
Her grandmother who is wearing a dress seemed to return to an 18-year-old mentality.
