"Brother Shen..." Song Huwen stood awkwardly in place, both disappointed and flustered. She looked helplessly at Hai Shen, "Cousin, what’s wrong with Brother Shen?" Her voice was quite loud; she couldn’t believe Shen Jianguo wouldn’t hear it.
"He’s gone mad, just ignore him." Hai Shen greeted the old man with a nod and headed out, carrying his things, "Co on, I’ve got to return to the Research Institute soon."
"Okay!" Song Huwen’s eyes lit up, and a shy blush spread across her pretty face. This was the reaction of a lovesick girl anticipating eting her beloved. Hai Shen glanced at her aningfully, as if he wanted to say sothing, but swallowed his words.
"Cousin, do you have sothing to tell ?" Song Huwen was clever, adept at reading people.
Originally, he didn’t intend to speak, but since she asked, Hai Shen spoke directly, "Do you like Xu Qigang?"
Knowing she couldn’t hide it, Song Huwen nodded honestly. "Yes! Ever since he saved in high school, I’ve secretly liked him. Cousin, do you look down on ? I don’t want to, but I can’t control it."
The difference between her and Hai Lan was that nine out of her ten words were true. Whereas Hai Lan, ten out of ten were false; only by mixing truth and lies could she go further. That idiot Hai Lan, really thought she was so impressive! Little did she know that her flaws were all pointed out by her mother.
Hai Shen sighed, "Since you’ve liked him for so many years, why not confess earlier?"
"I was young before, only dared to like him secretly. After growing up, I wanted to beco better and then appear before him." Speaking of it, Song Huwen regretted it so much she was having sleepless nights.
Just a little more, just a little more... otherwise Xu Qigang would have been hers.
"Forget it, even if you confessed earlier, I doubt Xu Qigang would have liked you."
Song Huwen’s face turned as white as a sheet, looking lost at Hai Shen, "Cousin, I’m your sister, how can you say that about ?"
"Ah?" Hai Shen was montarily stunned, then realized, "Don’t get wrong, I’m not saying you’re bad. What I an is Xu Qigang likes the type like Sheng Ning, you’re not his type."
"Is it because Cousin thinks I’m not outstanding enough?"
"Of course not!"
"Then why does Cousin look down on ?"
"Uh... n’s standards for won are different from how won see n. Alright, let’s go!" Hai Shen, caught off guard by her questioning, left unsaid whatever advice he intended to give.
****
Hai Shen drove directly to the Main Hospital with Song Huwen, and under the guidance of a nurse, found Xu Qigang’s ward. Before they got close, they could already hear laughter from inside.
Song Huwen heard Sheng Ning’s voice and a trace of sadness flickered in her eyes.
"An’an, quickly call him brother-in-law."
"Brother-in-law." Sheng An made a face and called out decisively.
Sheng Ning sat on her bed, peeling an apple. Her face was all smiles as she watched everyone interact. When the apple was peeled, she cut it into small pieces and instinctively handed it to Xu Qigang’s mouth first.
Soone paused for a second, then quickly seized the opportunity, opening his mouth to eat the apple.
Sheng Ning looked at her now empty hand, she was supposed to be in a cold war, still angry! Had she already surrendered without a fight?
The room was filled with an odd atmosphere, with everyone looking at the two with amused glances. Especially Zhao Lanzi, her gaze was like a spotlight. Her son and daughter-in-law’s relationship was so good, even feeding each other, surely it wouldn’t be long before she held a grandchild.
"Wife, you look really nice today." Xu Qigang said in a low voice, "Next ti you go out, I’ll have soone follow you."
"You knew?"
"Yeah! Changqi ca and told everything. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure Changqi gives that pervert a ’proper’ reception." Ensuring he ’enjoys’ a good stay inside.
Sheng Ning guiltily lowered her head, "Sorry, next ti I’ll only wear union uniforms."
Xu Qigang frowned, displeased, "My wife is beautiful; she should wear pretty clothes."
The two whispered to each other, not realizing the whole room was in fits of giggles! Actually, Xu Qigang knew everything, yet Sheng Ning was innocently sweetened by Xu Qigang’s cajoling, losing sense of direction.
