Chapter 242: Chapter 175 If I Hadn’t t Her, There Would Be No Current _2
Moreover, Yang Zichen is a million tis more reliable than Jing Zan. If there’s really sothing between them, she would feel much more at ease.
Upon arriving at the office, Su Nian asked, “How co you and Special Assistant Yang ca together? Don’t tell it’s a coincidence on the road, I won’t believe it.”
Wei Lan felt that there was no need to hide anything from Su Nian, so she honestly said, “Jing Zan refuses to divorce. He ca to make a scene at my place yesterday, and Special Assistant Yang kindly took in. I’ll move back after the divorce is settled.”
“So what you an is, you two are living together now?”
Wei Lan nodded, then wanted to shake her head: “Don’t think too much, it’s just simply living in the sa building!”
Su Nian teased her, “I didn’t say anything. Why are you in such a rush to explain?”
Wei Lan blushed even more.
“Sister Niannian, can I squeeze in at your place? It’s kind of awkward living with a man.”
Su Nian pondered with ulterior motives for a few seconds before saying, “I’m afraid it’s not a good ti these days. Qiuqiu is also at my place.”
Actually, they could make room, and Liang Yizhou’s room was always vacant, so there wouldn’t be a problem, but they are a couple in love; she couldn’t be so inconsiderate.
“Right, Sister Qiuqiu is at your place…” She thought about it and then said, “Then can I sleep on the sofa?”
“In such cold weather, sleep on what sofa? Special Assistant Yang’s place has so many rooms, why make things hard for yourself? Just stay at his place, calmly wait for Jing Zan’s matter to be settled, and then open your eyes wide to find yourself a good haven.”
“Find another? I’m scared now, too afraid to get married!”
“People inevitably take wrong paths in life; that’s called experience. Next ti, keep your eyes open wider, don’t latch onto any random person.”
Wei Lan put on a look of being aggrieved, “I should have listened to you back then, not rushing into marriage would have been better.”
Su Nian patted her head, “Silly girl, you grow up through setbacks.”
Su Nian thought to herself, fools may indeed have their own blessings. In her opinion, Yang Zichen definitely has feelings for Wei Lan.
Having followed Shen Hanxiu for over ten years, at least Yang Zichen’s character is guaranteed, and his family situation is also quite good. It just depends on whether the silly girl has the luck.
Shen Hanxiu went back to the old house early in the morning; the butler called last night to report that Deng Tonglian was sick.
In reality, he knew it was mostly an act because she had made several phone calls which he didn’t answer in the last few days. When she couldn’t find him, she liked to resort to this tactic.
Thinking that he had not visited her for a long ti, he took the ti to co back.
Upon entering the door, he heard an “ouch” from inside, the sound obviously made for him to hear.
“Third Young Master…”
Shen Hanxiu walked inward while asking the butler, “What’s wrong with the old lady?”
The butler looked sowhat embarrassed, as if he hadn’t co up with a good excuse yet, or he was too afraid to lie to Shen Hanxiu and felt guilty, saying, “The old lady… she… strained her back.”
Shen Hanxiu continued to walk and said, “Did she strain it while playing Mahjong?”
The butler grimly shut his mouth. Deng Tonglian, who was lying on the sofa feigning illness and supporting her back, looked at Shen Hanxiu and said, “You probably wouldn’t co back unless I’m dead.”
Shen Hanxiu heartlessly replied, “You’re not dead and I’ve co back, haven’t I?”
Deng Tonglian put on a look of suffering and pointed at Shen Hanxiu, “You unfilial son!” She cursed once and realized after all that he was her beloved son; she couldn’t say anything too harsh and changed her tone, “Hmph! How could I die without holding a grandson?”
Shen Hanxiu sat down on the couch opposite her, his deanor and words as if discussing business, “Let’s talk straight, playing sick must be quite tiring.”
Knowing her son wasn’t easy to fool, the fact he ca back was what she wanted, so she threw off the light blanket and the butler hurriedly helped her sit up on the couch.
Getting back to the main topic.
“Yaoyao has co back, did you know?”
Shen Hanxiu nodded.
“She ca to visit yesterday, her leg has healed, standing elegantly, quite beautiful to behold.”
Shen Hanxiu listened quietly, already having a good idea of what she was going to say.
Deng Tonglian smiled and pointed to a few gift boxes beside her, “Look how thoughtful Yaoyao is, bringing back so many specialties from the United States for .”
“See this scarf? It’s also from Yaoyao, so warm. And this makeup, she specially asked a friend to customize it for my skin, look how considerate!”
After she finished speaking, Shen Hanxiu slowly started, “Haven’t you heard the old saying ‘No one shows great care without a motive, either a swindler or a thief’?”
Deng Tonglian gave him a look, “Yaoyao simply ca to see ! To keep company. Look at you, her son, if it weren’t for hearing your mother was sick, I wouldn’t even see you. Yaoyao hasn’t been back for so long, and first thing upon returning, she cos to , what would she want from ? Besides, her conditions are not bad now!”
Shen Hanxiu found it amusing; back when he took care of Ye Jiayao, she thought he liked her and wanted to marry her, she belittled Ye Jiayao as worthless, criticized her as soone eyeing the Shen family’s wealth, said she, a disabled person, still dread of marrying into a wealthy family, neither having good family background nor the figure.
Now she flipped her stance so quickly, calling Yaoyao so endearingly.
“You’re well in your thirties, and Yaoyao, still single. I think she probably still has you in her heart. You liked her in the past, didn’t you? Mom now agrees to your marriage, you should settle down sooner, so I can hold a grandson sooner.”
After Deng Tonglian finished, seeing that he sat there patiently this ti without interrupting her, she thought he might be receptive and looked at him with hopeful eyes.
Shen Hanxiu put down the teacup in his hand, “You trouble yourself too much. I’ve never liked her, so you might as well drop the idea and just enjoy playing Mahjong every day.”
Deng Tonglian clearly didn’t believe him, “You don’t like her? You didn’t like her with the way you used to take care of her?”
Shen Hanxiu blandly responded, “I took even better care of Su Nian. The one I like is only Su Nian. To tell you the truth, I’ve known Su Nian since we were in town. Then, you abandoned , your illegitimate child, for wealth and glory. Do you know what my childhood was like?”
Deng Tonglian felt guilty towards her son and stopped pressing him.
Listening to his low voice saying, “If I hadn’t t her, there would be no now.”
