Chapter 1169 Wedding Dress

Zhang Shufen said, "With business so good, we definitely need to expand."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words."

Zhang Shufen then asked, "Do you still want to learn embroidery?"

Shen Xuening nodded and said, "Yes, I'll start learning tomorrow. I have a lot of things to arrange today, so I don't have time."

Zhang Shufen breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow."

Shen Xuening said, "Mother-in-law, I'll be going now."

"Okay." Zhang Shufen saw Shen Xuening to the door, then stood at the door waiting for Shen Xuening to walk away before returning home.

After returning home, Zhang Shufen pulled back the cloth on the embroidery rack, revealing a bright red wedding dress. She was embroidering a peony pattern on the dress, intending to give it to Shen Xuening as a wedding gift once it was finished.

So far, she has only embroidered two wedding dresses: one for herself and the other, which is the one in front of her, but it is still a work in progress.

Zhang Shufen sat down on the stool, picked up the embroidery needle, and continued embroidering.

I hope Xue Ning will like it.

……

office.

Shen Xuening flipped through the documents Feng Helin had brought, then suddenly frowned: "Helin, is something wrong with you? How could you make such a basic mistake?"

Feng Helin immediately looked at the spot Shen Xuening was pointing to, and his heart tightened: "I'm sorry, President Shen, it was my oversight."

Shen Xuening is a good boss who cares about her subordinates. She turned her head slightly to look at Feng Helin and asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Helin hesitated, then said, "I..."

Shen Xuening didn't want to force anyone, so she said, "If it's convenient, you can tell me. If it's not convenient, then don't tell me, but there can't be any more problems at work."

“It’s not Mr. Shen.” Feng Helin went all out. “I do have something on my mind.”

Shen Xuening patiently asked, "Tell me, what's wrong?"

“I… I like Wenyu, but…” Feng Helin said helplessly, “but it seems that Wenyu has fallen for someone else. I originally wanted to confess to her, but now I don’t dare to.”

"What do you mean? Who has Wenyu fallen for?" Shen Xuening's eyes lit up with a hint of gossip. She couldn't help it; she was always so serious and rarely heard anything different.

“Cai Yuehao from the scenic area project,” Feng Helin said helplessly. “I’ve noticed that she’s been chatting on her phone as soon as she gets off work these past few days, and she seems quite happy.”

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Could you be misunderstanding something?"

"I don't know." Feng Helin shook his head. "I've been very confused these past few days. I want to ask, but I don't dare to."

Shen Xuening said, "I suggest you ask quickly. Your work is already being affected. If this continues, who knows what other trouble might arise?"

Feng Helin asked worriedly, "President Shen, what if she really falls for someone else?"

"Then you should give your blessings," Shen Xuening said. "You should have confessed sooner, and now that he has someone he likes, you're getting anxious."

Feng Helin was speechless: "I..."

Shen Xuening sincerely said, "Don't make wild guesses. I really suggest you invite Wenyu out and ask her face to face."

Feng Helin hesitated, "Wouldn't that be too awkward?"

Shen Xuening retorted, "Aren't you embarrassed right now?"

Feng Helin thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's true."

Shen Xuening said earnestly, "Feelings can't wait. If you don't want to lose Wenyu, then you should act quickly, handle your relationship issues properly, and focus on your work."

Feng Helin felt a surge of strength: "I understand, President Shen."

Shen Xuening said, "Go home from get off work. I don't think you're in the mood to work."

Feng Helin thanked him apologetically, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."

……

Feng Helin returned to his residence with a heavy heart. After sitting on the sofa for a while, he took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Cao Wenyu: "Wenyu, let's have dinner together after get off work?"

Cao Wenyu replied a few minutes later: "Okay."

Feng Helin immediately perked up: "What do you want to eat?"

Cao Wenyu replied casually, "Either is fine."

Feng Helin immediately replied, "Then I'll treat you to dry pot chicken. The dry pot chicken at Yongle is especially delicious."

Cao Wenyu: "Okay."

Feng Helin felt all his strength return to his body. He quickly went to the bathroom to shower, shave, and get dressed. By the time he was ready, it was exactly six o'clock.

He sent Cao Wenyu a WeChat message: "Are you off work? Why don't you just go to the shop?"

Cao Wenyu: "Okay."

Feng Helin bought a bouquet of flowers and then rushed to the shop to order the dishes first, otherwise he would have to wait a long time, as the business here was very good.

Cao Wenyu came over a few minutes later and sat down opposite Feng Helin: "I've been craving this lately, and now I can finally have it."

"Then eat more later," Feng Helin said, handing the flowers to Cao Wenyu.

Cao Wenyu was a little confused: "Why did you buy me flowers?"

Feng Helin stared at Cao Wenyu, a bright smile on his face: "Don't girls all like flowers? I bought these especially for you."

Cao Wenyu was very happy: "Thank you, the flowers are beautiful, I like them very much."

Feng Helin pushed the snacks over and placed them in front of Cao Wenyu: "Wenyu, are you hungry? Have some snacks to tide you over."

Cao Wenyu didn't stand on ceremony and picked up a brown sugar glutinous rice cake to eat: "It still tastes the same, so delicious." She looked up at Feng Helin, "You said you'd have dinner with me before, why did you cancel?"

"Something came up." Feng Helin hesitated to look at Cao Wenyu.

He had originally planned to confess his feelings to Cao Wenyu, but the next day he saw her shopping with Cai Yuehao, which made him feel really uncomfortable, so he canceled the plan. However, he would never say these words.

Cao Wenyu asked with concern, "Has the matter been settled?"

Feng Helin said, "It's all taken care of, everything's fine now."

Cao Wenyu said, "That's good."

Feng Helin hesitated, then said, "Wenyu, may I ask you a question?"

Cao Wenyu nodded: "Go ahead and ask." She added, "We're so familiar with each other, just ask me whatever you want, and I'll tell you everything."

Feng Helin lowered his gaze slightly, staring at the brown sugar glutinous rice cakes on the table. After a while, he spoke: "Are you with that Cai Yuehao?"

Cao Wenyu didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Feng Helin looked directly at Cao Wenyu and asked with difficulty, "So, are you dating Cai Yuehao?"

Cao Wenyu was taken aback: "Why would you think that?"

Feng Helin didn't dare look at Cao Wenyu again and lowered his head: "You seemed very happy when the two of you were together."

Cao Wenyu suddenly laughed: "Haha, we made plans to go hiking, did you see?"

Feng Helin nodded: "I saw it by chance."

Cao Wenyu laughed and said, "I didn't date him, we were just friends, you know? We were actually kindergarten classmates, but my family moved away after that, and I haven't seen him since."

A surge of inexplicable jealousy welled up in Feng Helin's heart: "You and him were kindergarten classmates? Aren't you childhood sweethearts?"

Cao Wenyu quickly explained, "What are you talking about? I don't have those feelings for him."

Upon hearing this, Feng Helin was delighted: "You...you really don't have those kinds of feelings for him?"

Cao Wenyu nodded: "Of course, we're just friends."

Feng Helin blurted out, he was so excited: "Then, can I pursue you?"

Cao Wenyu was stunned: "W-what did you say?"

"Can I pursue you?" Feng Helin couldn't help but speak his mind. "Wenyu, I've liked you for a long time, but before I had nothing and didn't dare to promise you anything. Now it's different. I can give you a good life, so would you like to be with me?"

Cao Wenyu finally received Feng Helin's confession. Her nose tingled and her eyes reddened slightly: "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Feng Helin said, "I wouldn't dare. I just graduated and I have nothing. How can I take care of you?"

Cao Wenyu asked, "Were you serious about what you just said?"

Feng Helin looked at Cao Wenyu seriously and said solemnly, "I'm serious, Wenyu, will you be my girlfriend?"

Tears welled up in Cao Wenyu's eyes: "I do."

Feng Helin felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. He handed Cao Wenyu some tissues and said, "Wenyu, wait for me." Then he rushed out of the shop and disappeared.

Cao Wenyu looked back at the gate, wiped away her tears with a tissue, and felt a surge of joy in her heart. She hadn't expected that this guy liked her too. Why didn't he say so sooner?

A few minutes later, Feng Helin returned and handed Cao Wenyu a gift box: "I bought this a long time ago. It's for you, don't mind it."

Cao Wenyu blinked: "You went back specifically to get it?"

Feng Helin said, "That's right, today is such an important day, I must give you a gift as a souvenir."

Cao Wenyu was particularly curious: "Then should I open it?"

Feng Helin smiled and said, "Go ahead and open it."

Cao Wenyu opened the box; inside was a gold necklace: "You..."

Feng Helin asked, "Do you like it?"

Cao Wenyu nodded: "I like it. I like everything you give me. I didn't expect you to prepare a gift for me."

Feng Helin said, "I'll put it on you, but once it's on, you're my girlfriend, and you can't back out."

Cao Wenyu happily replied, "I won't go back on my word."

Feng Helin stood up and put the necklace around Cao Wenyu's neck: "It looks good, it suits you perfectly."

Cao Wenyu's gaze followed Feng Helin's movements: "The one you picked must be beautiful. I'll wear it all the time."

"Mmm." Feng Helin was very happy, as if he had won the whole world. "Wenyu, I will be good to you. As long as you are with me, I will be good to you every day."

"That would be great," Cao Wenyu said. "Then I won't have to envy others anymore."

“You definitely don’t need to envy others. You will have what others have,” Feng Helin promised.

"Okay." Cao Wenyu said with a smile.

……

In the office, Shen Xuening looked at the smug Feng Helin and teased, "Did you succeed in your confession?"

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Shen." Feng Helin was beaming with joy, clearly very happy. "Yesterday I had dinner with Wenyu and confessed my feelings to her. I didn't expect her to like me too."

Shen Xuening congratulated, "You've made it in two directions."

"Yes." Feng Helin said happily, "I will cherish Wenyu."

"Of course," Shen Xuening said. "Girls need to be treated with care, so you need to be gentle, understand?"

"Mm." Feng Helin nodded.

"Go ahead and get busy." Shen Xuening was quite happy. She was pleased to see everyone around her in pairs, and she hoped that everyone could find happiness.

Feng Helin left happily.

Shen Xuening continued operating the computer and writing the program. She planned to add a student aid section to the app, which had been prepared beforehand, and now she was proceeding according to plan.

In the scholarship section, applications are accepted every July, with 100,000 slots available each time, from which 1,000 will be selected for funding.

She started writing it yesterday, and it will be finished in another two hours. Then it needs to be tested, and once the test is passed, it can be embedded in the app.

Shen Xuening stared at the computer screen, as line after line of code continued to move upwards, looking somewhat unfathomable.

Shen Yingying arrived at the office: "Sister, what are you doing?"

"Write some code." Shen Xuening gave Shen Yingying a look. "Why are you here? Have you finished looking at the financial statements?"

"I've finished watching." Shen Yingying nodded, then walked to Shen Xuening's side. "Sister, this looks good, can I learn it?"

"Sure," Shen Xuening said. "Are you really interested?"

"Hmm." Shen Yingying stared intently.

“If you’re interested, I can find someone to teach you. I’m too busy to teach you myself,” Shen Xuening explained.

"As long as I can learn, that's fine." Shen Yingying didn't care about the process, only the result.

"I'll let you know when I've made arrangements." Shen Xuening suddenly remembered something. "Yingying, aren't you going to fill out your college application? Have you decided which major you want to study?"

Shen Yingying nodded: "I've thought it through. I'll study business administration and then get a second degree in finance."

Shen Xuening agreed: "That works too. On the other hand, the knowledge learned in school is just the foundation. We can learn what we need when we actually start working."

Shen Yingying said, "Yes."

Shen Xuening glanced at her phone: "We'll see the scores tomorrow, are you nervous?"

"A little," Shen Yingying replied truthfully. "Sister, will you check the scores with me tomorrow?"

"Sure, come to my office then, and we'll log in together to check it out." Shen Xuening patted Shen Yingying on the back, giving her encouragement and strength.

Shen Yingying's nervousness gradually dissipated: "Okay, sure."

……

When Shen Wenxu came home from school, he put down his chair in the study and asked, "Second sister, are you going to check the grades?"

Shen Yingying asked, puzzled, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"I want to know how many points you got." Shen Wenxu looked at Shen Yingying. "By the way, second sister, didn't you estimate your score? What was your estimate?"

Shen Yingying picked up an orange, tossed it in her hand a couple of times, and said, "I'm not telling you."

"Disloyal." Shen Wenxu snorted.

"Alright, alright, I'll check the score tomorrow, and I'll tell you the truth then, okay?" Shen Yingying handed the peeled orange to Shen Wenxu, "Eat an orange, it'll cool you down."

"Oranges are heaty, aren't they?" Even though he said that, Shen Wenxu still took the orange, cut it in half, and gave one half back to Shen Yingying, "Let's eat together."

"I'm planning to cook at home tonight, what would you like to eat?" Shen Yingying put a segment of orange in her mouth.

"What do you want to eat?" Shen Wenxu asked.

"I want to eat fried rice with eggs." Shen Yingying licked her lips.
