"Such a possessive tone, tsk tsk, our little deer Ye Lu, you’re so bold."
"I’m just using her as a shield against my mother."
"Be careful not to accidentally fall for her in the process."
Shang Jingchen frowns, "You know who I really like."
"Sigh, you still haven’t moved on. She’s been gone for so many years, why can’t you just let go? Who knows, she may have already started a new life."
"That’s not the case, I believe she still loves ."
Yangxiu remained silent. As a friend, he wanted Shang Jingchen to be happy, but did not believe that woman could bring him happiness.
He changed the subject, "Huh, this room used to be full of flowers. Today it’s empty, where have all the flowers gone?"
This reminder made Shang Jingchen angry.
"It’s that damned woman who sold them all."
Yangxiu was imdiately interested, "Sounds like a juicy story. What happened? Even a cunning fox like you got tricked by her."
Shang Jingchen irritably told him about how Ye Lu had ruined him with cheap perfu.
"Haha, how powerful! This girl is so malicious. Jingchen, it’s because you bullied her that she fought back, right? What did you do to her?" Yangxiu asked with a mischievous face.
"What would I do to her?" Shang Jingchen suddenly thought about the kiss when he pushed her onto the bed. He enjoyed the recall, but didn’t admit it aloud, "Hmph, I asked her to work, but she’s always reluctant. She always plays dumb to get out of it."
Suddenly his phone rang. Shang Jingchen picked it up, and his face softened at the na displayed.
He spoke on the phone for a long ti before hanging up.
"It’s Old Master Shang, isn’t it?" Yangxiu knew it must be Shang Tian, his grandfather. He knew that Jingchen’s father had married into the Shang family, which is why his surna was Shang.
Only Old Master Shang could evoke such a warm and respectful deanor from Shang Jingchen.
"Yeah, it’s gramps. He called to ask if I was feeling better."
"Your grandfather is retired and living in the old house now, right?"
"Yeah, I hope that he can live his remaining years in peace and comfort, without worrying about the company." In recent years, he had been working hard so that his grandfather could retire worry-free. "From the sound of his voice, he seed quite happy. He said he t a couple of lovely kids at a children’s choir today."
"Your grandfather must really want a great-grandchild. He’s always been a lively person, must be quite bored now he’s retired."
Shang Jingchen’s gaze turned sorrowful, "My grandfather would never force to do sothing I don’t want to."
Grandpa is the one who loves him the most.
He’s also the one who knows him the best – even his mother and everyone else couldn’t understand him, but his Grandpa Shang Tian could definitely understand his desires and his choices.
"Your grandfather is a very wise man. But your mother, and your other family mbers, they couldn’t accept her then. Do you think they would accept her now? Especially your mother.." Yangxiu knew how much Madam Shang had despised the relationship between Shang Jingchen and Yuan Jiayin back then.
Usually, affluent families rely vehently opposing the admittance of a girl from a low-inco family.
But his mother was utterly incompatible with her, with an utmost conviction that it was either her or Yuan Jiayin, and she had done everything to break them up. Her thods were extre.
This was the reason Shang Jingchen and his mother remained distant – he couldn’t forgive her for her outrageous behavior.
"Back then, I was young and didn’t have the power to protect the people I cared about, let alone stand against them. Now, I’m different. I can marry the woman I love despite her objections. She won’t be able to stop !"
Shang Jingchen’s voice was full of confidence and determination.
"But I don’t want to ruin this family, and I don’t want grandpa to feel upset watching our mother-son relationship fall apart."
