Shi Nuan couldn’t agree with Yu Dou’s words and retorted again, "I told you, my relationship with Song Yansheng is not like yours with Sister Qingyang!"
Yu Dou didn’t imdiately refute.
Shi Nuan glanced at him and asked, "Actually, I’ve always wanted to ask you, do you... do you like Sister Qingyang? Is that why you’re so adamant about marrying her?
After all, you have good prospects, and the Song Family is not the largest enterprise in T City. If you wanted to find a better stepping stone than the Song Family, you could, but you didn’t. So, do you like Sister Qingyang?"
Yu Dou was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Whether I like her or not, who can say for sure? But one thing is clear to , only when she’s by my side can I feel at ease..."
Shi Nuan was montarily stunned and said, "So, do you really like Sister Qingyang?"
To give him peace of mind—what else could it be if not liking her?
But Yu Dou did not directly answer her.
So things he couldn’t express too clearly, and the peace of mind he referred to was not what Shi Nuan thought it was.
He couldn’t explain it clearly, or even if he did, Shi Nuan might not understand.
He said, "Just take it as you think..."
After a pause, he added, "Nuannuan, live your own life well, think carefully about what you truly want, cherish what you have, and you don’t need to worry about other things... because Song Yansheng won’t sit by idly concerning your matters, and many others won’t either!"
Shi Nuan frowned slightly, looking at Yu Dou’s profile.
Yu Dou’s face was handso and delicate, with the deep wisdom of a mature man, unfathomable and difficult to read.
Suddenly, she felt that her decade of patience and disguise seed naive and superficial.
Because Song Yansheng understood her, and Yu Dou understood her too, yet she hadn’t really interacted much with these two n previously.
How very strange!
...
Shi Nuan followed Yu Dou back to the Shi Family and had dinner there.
Chi Rui intended to report to Song Yansheng, but his affairs delayed him today.
When he finished his work, it was already past eight in the evening. He suddenly rembered this matter and broke into a cold sweat.
He couldn’t help but be alard because he knew well that in his boss’s heart, Shi Nuan’s matters were above all else.
He forgot to inform Song Yansheng of this; this could not be left unchecked! Without careful handling, it might cost him his life.
Chi Rui, while driving to Song Yansheng’s social event, called him on the phone.
After a long ring on the other end, it was picked up by Song Yansheng.
Chi Rui dared not delay for a mont and told Song Yansheng that Shi Nuan went to the Shi Family for dinner tonight.
Song Yansheng’s voice was indeed cold, asking, "Why didn’t you tell earlier?"
Chi Rui admitted his mistake, "I’m sorry, Mr. Song... I!"
"Go pick up my wife imdiately... no, bring her to . My engagent will finish in less than an hour!"
In other words, I’m giving you only an hour to bring my wife to my side!
Chi Rui dared not disobey, agreed imdiately, and turned the car toward the Shi Family.
anwhile, at the Shi Family, Shi Yuanbo was happy because Shi Nuan returned ho, and he drank a bit with Yu Dou, getting sowhat tipsy.
Shi Nuan finally helped him back to his room with a servant.
When soone is drunk, they may often speak nonsense; Shi Nuan rembered that as she was about to leave the room, Shi Yuanbo suddenly grabbed her hand, gently calling her, "Xiao Hua, don’t go!"
