Chapter 2312: What a Deep Love
The corner of her lips rose as Ning Shu entered both An Xuchen and Yan Suni’s birthdays. A moment later, that password was revealed as correct.

What a deep love they shared. She couldn’t help but weep at its depth.
She glanced toward the bathroom from which the sound of running water could be heard.
An Xuchen would probably take more time showering today.
With that in mind, Ning Shu went through his laptop and copied all the important information onto a flash drive.
She alternated between looking in the direction of the bathroom and checking the progress of the copying.
When she heard the sound of running water stop, Ning Shu hurriedly unplugged the USB drive. Then she turned off the computer and ran into the kitchen to begin chopping the ribs, making extra noise as she did.
An Xuchen, fresh out of the shower, wiped his hair with a towel as he stood at the kitchen door looking at Ning Shu.
She looked at him expressionlessly. “What?”
“Did you do that on purpose earlier?” An Xuchen watched Ning Shu closely. Showering had been painful since he had gotten a lot of scrapes.
After all, he fell from a great height.
“What would I gain from your fall? Anyway, how could you take such a long shower? Do you think water and electricity are free?” Ning Shu asked rhetorically.
An Xuchen frowned tightly. “Is there nothing you care about besides money?”
“You grew up together with Yan Suni, so how come the two of you have such different personalities? Yan Suni never cared about these things,” he said.
Ning Shu brandished the knife she held and let it slam into the board as she chopped the ribs in half. She said with a smile, “Indeed, I’m really this tacky. Yan Suni might be able to live by inhaling celestial air, but I need money to survive.”
“Have you always been jealous of her?” An Xuchen looked at Ning Shu, who was faking a smile. “There is no way you can ever be comparable to Yan Suni.”
Damn it! Ning Shu had a rising urge to kill An Xuchen with the knife she held. No, killing him wasn’t enough. She should use a dull knife to slice his flesh from his bones slowly—only then would it feel satisfying.
“I won’t have lunch at home.” An Xuchen went back into his room to change his clothes before leaving with his bag and laptop.
A much more cheerful Ning Shu put the ribs inside the pot to stew. She then opened her laptop.
She was preparing to sell the design she just got her hands on.
The USB drive contained a copy of An Xuchen’s company’s latest product’s packaging design.
Ning Shu contacted the rival of the company where An Xuchen worked. She told them that she was from Company XX and made vague allusions to her position. Afterward, she claimed that she wanted to sell a design and asked them for an offer.
Ning Shu was sure to demand a higher price.
After negotiating for a while, the company paid her 30,000 and she quickly sent them the document.
When the pork rib soup was ready, Ning Shu received a message saying the money had already been transferred.
Ning Shu felt great for getting a steal.
After finishing the whole pot of soup, she sat on the couch and began cultivating.
The food she just ate slowly turned into energy, flowing throughout her body.
When she was done cultivating, Ning Shu activated the tracking system. As expected, she saw the two red dots together.
The location the two were in was a Western restaurant.
Oh my, how romantic!
Love and marriage were two different things. Yan Suni was afraid of what would commonly happen in a marriage.
When two people had to face each other day and night, the novelty and mystery would wear off.
In addition, any flaws they exposed would become more bothersome over time.
Ning Shu wondered if Yan Suni and An Xuchen would share a bed after they got married.
Right now, even when Yan Suni spent some intimate time with An Xuchen, she would still kick him out and ask him to find another place to sleep. She would never sleep beside him the entire night.
Before kissing, she always brushed her teeth and sprayed some mouth freshener spray.
Yan Suni would never act indecently because she couldn’t stand disillusionment.
She was the kind of person Ning Shu had never seen before.
