Twelve Units of Sweetness: Chapter 60


Chen Yiran was very moved after hearing Chen Zui's words, but Chen Zui didn’t mention the thing about soundproof between the two master bedrooms.

Not long after that, the agent Xiao He found a buyer for Chen Zui's current house, and made an appointment with Chen Zui to sign the contract. After confirming all the matters with Xiao He, Chen Zui called Zhen Tian and told her about it, "Xiao He has already helped us find a buyer, and the contract will be signed in two days. That day, I also have an appointment with the owner of the house I bought. We will sign together."

"Wow, really, that's great." Zhen Tian was in the beer house at the moment, standing in front of the bar. She smiled and said to Chen Zui over the phone, "Then when will you move and Shanshan move?"

"I'm going to start packing tomorrow, do you want to come and help me?"

"Okay, what time do you get off work tomorrow?"

“I get off work in the evening tomorrow. After the morning news, I have to record the talk show in the afternoon.”

"Oh, then call me when you're done. I'll go straight to your house."

"Okay, see you then."

The corners of Zhen Tian's mouth curled up. Although they have finished talking about the matter at hand, she didn't want to hang up the phone so quickly. So she found another topic to talk about, "Who are you interviewing this time?"

Chen Zui didn't expect her to be interested in this, but since she asked, he still answered truthfully, "He Xiu, the owner of Starlight Department Store. Do you know him?"

Zhen Tian's mouth opened wide in surprise, "I know him! You even invited Mr. He to the show!"

Because He Xiu is so handsome and rich. The paparazzi used to write about him, saying that he is the gold backer of some starlet. Because he is often in the headlines of entertainment gossip, many star-chasing girls who don't care about financial news also know him.

"President He is a well-known young entrepreneur in A City. It's not surprising to invite him to be on the show. I just didn't expect him to agree. He rarely accepts interviews, let alone appear on this kind of talk show."

When Zhen Tian heard this, she thought of something, "Xiao Zui'er, do you still remember how you became popular on the Internet?"

“Hm?”

"Youyou, the one who drew your fanart, is in the same studio as Master Tang Zhi. Later, Tang Zhi also reposted your photo and praised you for being handsome. You should that Tang Zhi is He Xiu’s wife.”

Chen Zui, “....”

So….?

"I think President He agreed with bad intentions this time. You should pray for good luck."

"...He's not so petty."

"This is hard to say."

"..." Chen Zui laughed and said, "No matter what, the program will still be recorded normally. I'll call you when I finish recording the program tomorrow."

"Okay, I’ll wait for your message." Zhen Tian finished talking with him and finally hung up the phone. Zhu Ling, who had been sitting in front of the bar listening to her call, saw that she had finally put down her phone. She took a sip of beer and said, "What, you and Chen Zui'er bought a house? Are you getting married?"

Zhen Tian said, "We’re not moving so fast yet. The wedding will have to wait until next year. I will send you an invitation card then."

“.....” Thank you so much. “If I’m still single by then, I won’t go.”

Zhen Tian raised her eyebrows, wanting to gossip about her, "You and that handsome client of yours have been cooperating for so long, and you still haven't got him?"

"Don't mention it. The project will end in a few days, and I probably won't see him again in the future."

"Then you have to take the initiative. You must have his phone number or WeChat."

"Heh." Speaking of this, Zhu Ling sneered again, "I added his WeChat, but he must have assigned me to his business circle. There are very few things in on his Moments!"

“At least you can see his Moments. By the way, do you have a picture? Let me see.”

Zhu Ling looked through her mobile phone, and said to Zhen Tian, "Just a few days ago, he just posted a selfie, the only one in his Moments!"

She found the post, clicked on the picture, and showed it to Zhen Tian, "Here, isn't he handsome just looking at his face?"

"Let me take a look." The lighting in the beer house was not particularly bright. Zhen Tian took Zhu Ling's mobile phone and took a closer look.

Then she froze.

"What's the matter? Are you rendered stupid by his handsomeness?" Seeing her staring at the photo without blinking, Zhu Ling joked, "Wait a minute, I'll take a picture of you like this and show it to Anchor Chen."

Zhen Tian finally came to her senses, but her expression was still a little surprised, "This is your client?"

“Yes, what do you think?

"This is my brother!"

Zhu Ling, “....???”

What? Huh?

His surname seems to be Zhen...

"Your brother?" Zhu Ling was stunned now, "Zhen Xi?"

"That's right!" Zhen Tian pointed to herself and then to the photo on the phone, "Zhen Tian. Zhen Xi."

Zhu Ling, “....”

It really is a small world.

"The surname Zhen is not so common. You should have asked me earlier!" Zhen Tian said.

Zhu Ling twitched her lips and looked at her, "I just didn't expect you to be a Ms. Perfect.”

T/N: Ms. Perfect: fair-skinned, rich and beautiful

“...” What does that mean?! How does she not look like Ms. Perfect?!

"No, your name is Zhen Tian, shouldn't your brother be called Zhen Ku*?"

T/N: Tian=sweet and Ku=bitter

Zhen Tian, “...”

What kind of parents would give their children such names?

Knowing that the handsome client who has been working with her for so many months is Zhen Tian's brother, Zhu Ling was in a trance all night, and so was Zhen Tian.

But she recovered the next day, and even wrapped up the improved version of "Good Morning at 6 AM" that she had brewed. She planned to take it to Chen Zui's home at night to celebrate with him.

Chen Zui called her after four o'clock in the afternoon and told her he finished recording. Zhen Tian couldn't help asking him curiously, "Was there be any sparks when you met?"

"Sparks?" Chen Zui raised his eyebrows, "Why would I have sparks with a man? There would be if the person was you."

"Uh..." Zhen Tian scratched her face, "I mean, Presdident He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

"No, it's me who made things difficult for him. I'm the host."

"..." Okay. "I can foresee that after this episode airs, the ratings will definitely hit a new high."

Chen Zui chuckled, "Stop caring about my show all the time and get ready to go. I'll wait for you at home."

"Okay." Zhen Tian hung up the phone, bounced downstairs, and drove to Chen Zui's house.

Probably because she came too often, the security guard at the gate recognized her and her car. When he saw her car coming, he let her into the underground garage without asking.

She also has the keys to Chen Zui's house. After the house is sold, the buyer will definitely replace the lock. This will be the last time she will use this key to open the door.

Because this will be "the last time," Zhen Tian opened the door with a special sense of meaning. After the door opened, she didn't rush to change her slippers but looked around the room first.

Then she froze.

The room has been carefully decorated, with many colorful balloons hanging, and many flowers on the table and cabinet. The most striking thing is that the coffee table in the center of the living room is arranged as a dessert table, on which there are not only exquisite and beautiful desserts but also a two-tiered large cake.

The cake is made with a special design, half of which is pure white mousse and the other half is red roses, like a girl wearing a red evening dress. Chen Zui walked out of the bedroom in a suit and leather shoes, holding a bouquet of fiery red roses in his hand.

Zhen Tian stared blankly at him as he walked in front of her. She was still a little confused, "Who’s birthday is it today? It’s not mine so is it Shanshan's?"

That’s not right. If it’s Shan Shan's birthday...why make it so romantic!

Chen Zui smiled, and gave her the bouquet of roses in his hand, "It’s no one’s birthday, these are for you."

"Thank you, thank you." Zhen Tian held a large bouquet of roses and was led in by him.

There was a heart-shaped steak on the dining table, and the candlelight was flickering on the white tablecloth. Zhen Tian froze then looked up at Chen Zui, "Have you prepared a candlelight dinner?"

"En, but I didn't prepare red wine."

Zhen Tian smiled, "It just so happened that I brought beer!"

Chen Zui chuckled and opened the beer she brought, and poured it into two tulip cups, "Do you want to try the cake first? I ordered these from Sweet Heart and Honeyed Desires, I remembered you like the desserts from there.

"Yeah, but this cake is so beautiful that I can't bear to cut it."

"Then let it sit for a while. We’ll drink and eat steak first."

"Okay." Zhen Tian put the bouquet aside, cut a small piece of steak, and fed it into her mouth. She couldn't calm down no matter what, her heart was beating like a drum.

Zhen Tian took a sip of beer to calm down, but this still couldn't relieve the tension in her heart.

"Uh, senior, try this wine. I improved the recipe for “Good Morning at 6 AM.”" Maybe she can relax a bit by chatting.

"Okay." Chen Zui also picked up the glass and took a sip. He looked at Zhen Tian through the flickering candlelight, "It's delicious, the taste is very good."

"Ah, that's great. I was afraid you wouldn't like it. After all, it's non-alcoholic beer." Zhen Tian stroked her loose hair next to her ear, then raised her glass and took another sip, "By the way, have you ever been drunk?"

Chen Zui had never drunk without restraint in front of her, but for some reason, the impression he had in her heart was that he was the kind of person who could drink well.

Chen Zui looked at her, lowered his voice, and said slowly in the tone of talking to his sweetheart, "I've never been drunk by alcohol, only been drunk by you."

Zhen Tian's face turned red, not only because of what Chen Zui said but because at this moment he is too sexy and alluring.

Her heart was beating faster than before. Zhen Tian couldn't even hold the knife and fork properly anymore. Chen Zui took out a small box from the bouquet of flowers on the table, walked up to Zhen Tian, knelt down on one knee, and opened the box, "Tiantian, will you marry me?"

Not surprisingly, there was an engagement ring in the box.

Zhen Tian had a premonition long ago, but when she saw Chen Zui kneeling in front of her holding the ring, she still couldn't control her emotions.

The parents on both sides have already met to discuss the marriage. They even bought a house, but he still prepared a surprise marriage proposal for her.

No girl will be unhappy.

With red eyes, she nodded her head and answered him, “Yes!”

Chen Zui smiled and helped her put on the ring. He kissed her lips a few times, "You had no idea how nervous I was today."

Zhen Tian was amused, "Then your acting skills are quite good. I didn’t notice it at all when you called me."

Chen Zui also smiled and couldn’t help but kiss her lips again.

She just drank beer earlier which made this kiss even more intoxicating.

Without her knowing it, Chen Zui had his arms around her, and her whole body was trapped on the chair. Zhen Tian blushed and said, "Whe-where’s Shanshan?"

With a hoarse voice, Chen Zui whispered in her ear, "He's staying at his grandparents' house today, and won't come back tonight."

Zhen Tian pursed her lips, her ears turned even redder. Chen Zui couldn’t help biting her ear lightly, “Do you remember what I said last time? Next time I won't let you escape unscathed."

Zhen Tian was so nervous that her palms were sweating, but Chen Zui pressed her forward step by step, getting closer to her, "Let's go inside."

"...En." Zhen Tian buried her head, not daring to look at him, "But I didn't even take a shower."

Chen Zui laughed and picked her up, "Shower later."

After being carried to the room by Chen Zui, Zhen Tian discovered that the big bed in the room was also covered with rose petals, and the petals were even arranged in a heart shape.

When she was put on the bed by Chen Zui, the petals also flew up. Zhen Tian was a little dazed for a moment, and then her body sank. Chen Zui's scorching breath spilled beside her ears, causing her own body to burn up.

Chen Zui's hand moved up slowly along her arm, and finally held her hand, interlocking their fingers. The wedding ring on the ring finger gleamed brightly in the light.

In this life, I have only been intoxicated by you.
