Xu Jialan might never forget that ho...
Chapter 63 I stole your first place again
Madam Shen has been beside Xu Jialan, talking to her, but no one knows what they are talking about.
Shen Yankai didn’t understand women’s stuff, so he just sat aside and waited.
Not long after, there was a sound of brakes outside.
Shen Yankai raised his eyebrows, checked the time, and clicked his tongue.
Xu Jialan also heard the noise and subconsciously looked over there.
Then I saw the man walking in quickly.
She was stunned for a few seconds, and then obvious joy flashed across her eyes.
Shen Xichuan saw it, stepped forward, took her hand, and gently brought it into his arms.
He frowned and looked at Madam Shen, “I allowed you to take care of people, not to kidnap them.”
Mrs. Shen: “…”
She was silent for a moment, but still couldn't help but said, "What do you mean by kidnapping? This is my daughter-in-law. Is there anything wrong with me taking her home?"
Shen Xichuan frowned, “She needs to recuperate.”
One sentence blocked Madam Shen.
Xu Jialan quickly explained, "It's none of Mom's business. I just wanted to come and see."
The man lowered his eyes to look at her and paused, "What do you want to see?"
Xu Jialan was still in his arms, her face slightly flushed.
She spoke softly, "Mom said you lived here when you were a child. I was curious, so I came here to take a look."
Xu Jialan didn't lie either.
She stayed in the study for the whole morning and couldn't finish organizing the information all at once.
After lunch, Mrs. Shen knew that she had been looking at the computer all morning, so she pulled her to sit on the sofa in the living room to chat.
Mrs. Shen knew that they were high school classmates, so she chatted with her about the gossip about Shen Xichuan in high school.
Xu Jialan didn't expect that Madam Shen also knew about the gossip back then.
The two chatted with great interest.
Then Mrs. Shen asked, do you want to see Shen Xichuan when he was a child?
This is too tempting for Xu Jialan.
She couldn't help but agreed.
After listening to this, Shen Xichuan's brows relaxed, "If you want to see it, you can see it anytime. You didn't stay at home obediently even when you were injured. It turns out that you can't keep an eye on it for even a moment."
The words sounded like a scolding, but the tone wasn't like it at all.
Xu Jialan blinked, "What should I do if I want to see it now?"
Seeing her like this, the man's jawline tightened, "Okay, I'll show you."
Shen Yankai, who was watching this scene not far away, clicked his tongue.
He originally thought that Shen Xichuan would hold on longer.
I didn't expect them to surrender so quickly.
Mrs. Shen quickly said, "Why don't we eat first and then watch it. It just so happens that Lan Lan is hungry too."
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes and glanced at his own mother, too lazy to expose her little thoughts.
He put his arm around Xu Jialan's shoulders and walked towards the restaurant.
"Okay, let's eat it then."
"Hey." Madam Shen immediately ordered Butler Shen beside her, "Tell the kitchen to serve dinner now."
Butler Shen responded respectfully, then suddenly remembered something, "The master of the family..."
Madam Shen simply waved her hand, “No need to wait for him.”
Butler Shen was silent for a few seconds, then lowered his head, “Yes, ma’am.”
Shen Yankai shook his head helplessly, stood up, and followed Madam Shen.
…
In the restaurant.
Shen Xichuan sat between Madam Shen and Xu Jialan.
When he first sat down, he suffered a lot of glares from Mrs. Shen.
Shen Xichuan sat expressionless and calm.
Mrs. Shen: “…”
She was too lazy to argue with her jealous son and looked at Xu Jialan with a smile, "Lanlan, your wound hasn't healed yet, so you can only eat light food for now. When you're better, Mom will make more for you..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Xichuan coughed symbolically.
Mrs. Shen curled her lips and said again, “What Mom said is, let the kitchen make you something you like to eat.”
Xu Jialan didn't know the meaning of the interaction between the mother and son.
She curled her lips and nodded, "Okay."
The chefs in the Shen family are all master chefs, so the food they cook is naturally extraordinary.
Even if it is light, you can make many variations of it.
The head of the Shen family came back when they were halfway through their meal.
This was the first time Xu Jialan met the head of the Shen family.
As the head of the Shen family, his aura is naturally extremely powerful.
But when he looked at his family, his eyes and brows were still a little softer.
Especially when he looked at Xu Jialan, he was particularly gentle and had no airs at all.
Xu Jialan looked at the attitude of the Shen family. He didn't show anything on his face, but he was still a little flattered in his heart.
She had already prepared herself mentally that she might not be liked by Shen Xichuan's family.
But unexpectedly, all this was a little unexpected.
His family... is really warm.
It is so warm that people keep wanting to get closer and closer.
…
After dinner, Shen Xichuan took Xu Jialan upstairs.
They came to his room.
This was the first time Xu Jialan entered his room.
In fact, in the afternoon, Mrs. Shen asked her if she wanted to come in.
She thought about it and refused.
After all, the owner of the room is Shen Xichuan.
It might not be a good idea for her to go in directly when he is not here.
She didn't expect that after he came back, he would take the initiative to bring her in.
Xu Jialan's eyes were full of curiosity.
Shen Xichuan chuckled and turned on the light.
"This is my room."
Xu Jialan glanced around. The room was not small at all, but one could still see traces of his past.
For example, his basketball and his awards and trophies.
Seeing the honors in the cabinet, she smiled, walked over and stopped in front of the cabinet.
Shen Xichuan also followed and stood beside her.
Xu Jialan pointed to one of the trophies and said, "I have this one too."
Shen Xichuan looked over and saw a competition trophy.
He won the gold medal.
Not knowing what he was thinking about, he chuckled, "I stole your first place again?"
Xu Jialan also smiled and hummed, "Mine is the silver medal."
Shen Xichuan looked at the trophy, trying to recall the memories of the game at that time.
But he has participated in too many competitions.
There are very few that I can recall.
I can't even remember her presence.
He felt a little regretful and sighed silently, then asked, "At that time, did you really want to get first place in the exam?"
Hearing this, Xu Jialan paused for a few seconds, just shook his head and said nothing.
Shen Xichuan thought she was embarrassed and didn’t ask any more questions.
After a while, Xu Jialan suddenly said, "Actually, getting second place is pretty good."
Shen Xichuan was stunned for a moment, “Why?”
Xu Jialan turned to look at him, smiled but said nothing.
Why?
Because he is the first one.
And she, who came in second, could be closer to him.
So, it doesn’t matter even if you lose the first place you have maintained since childhood.
