Shang Yanxing nodded gently, "Yes, I'm relieved that Madam likes it."

Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing and fell into deep thought. So this is what an excellent man is like; he takes everything very seriously.

Although their marriage was arranged, Shang Yanxing still had to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband.

In the future, who knows which lucky girl will be liked by Shang Yanxing.

Seeing Jiang Susu lost in thought, Shang Yanxing waved his hand in front of her and asked, "What are you thinking about, Madam?"

Shang Yanxing interrupted her train of thought, and Jiang Susu finally came to her senses.

She blinked and said truthfully, "I was thinking, are all outstanding people like you like this? You take everything very seriously, and even though our marriage is arranged, you still act like a husband, fulfilling your duties."

Shang Yanxing even went beyond the scope of simply being dutiful and responsible.

I don't know if it was just her imagination.

He seemed to dote on her a bit.

Shang Yanxing lowered his eyes, then suddenly raised them again, landing on that clean, soft, palm-sized face. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he uttered only two words, "No."

He takes her seriously because she's the girl he likes.

He wouldn't be this serious about other people's affairs.

Jiang Susu stared at Shang Yanxing, seemingly not quite understanding what he meant.

Seeing her bewildered expression, Shang Yanxing explained, "It is my duty to care about Madam's affairs."

The explanation seemed to have been given, yet it also felt like it hadn't been explained at all. She didn't quite understand, but she didn't ask any further questions.

The next morning.

The staff at the toy store delivered the blue teddy bear to Shuixie Villa.

After Jiang Susu signed for the package, she had it placed in her room.

It's a full 1.6 meters long, almost as tall as her. Did Shang Yanxing really buy her a doll to sleep with?

She stared at the teddy bear, lost in thought.

She didn't actually like plush toys that much. The Doraemon plush toy she had was only because it was a gift from Shen Shiyan.

You don't actually have to be so serious about Shang Yan.

But since she had already given him the gift, she felt embarrassed to refuse his kindness.

It doesn't take up much space anyway.

Let's just leave it like this; it looks nice.

At noon, Shang Yanxing returned from the company, accompanied by Gu Xichen.

Seeing them return, Jiang Susu walked up to Shang Yanxing.

Shang Yanxing smiled and introduced to Jiang Susu, "This is Gu Xichen, the one I told you about."

Jiang Susu smiled and nodded, greeting Gu Xichen.

Gu Xichen wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking refined and ascetic, but when he saw Jiang Susu, he greeted her warmly, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Jiang Susu had heard Shang Yanxing mention Gu Xichen before. The two were very close brothers who grew up together, studied together, and later became heirs, each managing their family's business.

Gu Xichen appeared harmless in front of her, but to outsiders, he was just as ruthless as Shang Yanxing.

How can one become a person in power without any means?

Jiang Susu sat next to Shang Yanxing, and the two looked loving and harmonious.

Shang Yanxing picked up his teacup, took a sip, and as if remembering something, suddenly turned to look at Jiang Susu and asked, "Did Madam receive the plush toy I bought for her today?"

He just suddenly remembered this; he had almost forgotten about it.

Jiang Susu nodded and replied, "Received it, I'm in my room now."

"I picked this out that night, I don't know if Madam will like it?" He bought it for the little girl according to his own preferences.

"I like it. I like anything you give me." Perhaps because there were outsiders present, Jiang Susu's performance was slightly exaggerated.

"I'm glad you're happy, Madam."

Gu Xichen looked at the two of them, popped a slice of orange into his mouth, took a bite, and the sour juice exploded in his mouth instantly.

It was so sour that his teeth almost fell out.

His current mood was like that sour orange; seeing the two of them so affectionate, he was even a little envious.

Jiang Susu suddenly remembered that Lin Musheng had called her and said he wanted to go out for lunch with her.

"I made plans to have lunch with Mu Sheng, I almost forgot about this."

Jiang Susu got up, preparing to pack her things and leave, but Shang Yanxing grabbed her hand. "Madam, why don't you invite your friend over to Shuixie Villa and have her come to our house for a meal?"

He just got back from outside, and this little woman is already leaving?

Besides, Gu Xichen is here. Even if the two of them are just putting on an act, they have to let that guy eat some dog food before going back. Otherwise, wouldn't their trip have been in vain?

Jiang Susu hesitated for a moment, "This...this isn't a good idea."

Originally, they thought Lin Musheng would be a lifeline, but now, how did he end up shooting himself in the foot?

“Isn’t your friend my friend too? Besides, we just got married, and I haven’t even met your friend yet. It just so happens that Xichen is here today, so it will be more lively with more people.”

Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing with some difficulty.

Seeing that she hadn't agreed yet, Shang Yanxing's face suddenly showed a hint of disappointment. "Does Madam's friend dislike me? Does she think I'm not good enough for Madam?"

Jiang Susu hurriedly explained, "No, how could that be? I just think Mu Sheng eats too much. Would it be a bit inappropriate to bring her to the Waterside Villa?"

To deal with Shang Yanxing, Jiang Susu made up a reason.

Upon hearing Jiang Susu's explanation, the disappointment on Shang Yanxing's face immediately disappeared, replaced by a bright smile. "How could that be? I'm not poor. Madam, just let her eat to her heart's content."

Jiang Susu nodded somewhat blankly, "Then...then should I ask her to come to Waterside Villa?"

She couldn't refuse in this situation, so she had no choice but to agree.

"Yes, if it's inconvenient, you can have the driver pick you up. Your friend is my friend."

Jiang Susu sent Lin Musheng a message, asking her to come to Shuixie Villa. "No need," Lin Musheng replied, "a driver will take her here. She should be here soon."

"Alright, then we'll do as you say, Madam."

Gu Xichen watched the two of them the whole time. He felt that Shang Yanxing had changed a lot and was completely different from before.

"Third Brother, you've changed. You weren't like this before. You used to be so decisive and efficient, how come you've suddenly become so gentle?"

They're like completely different people!

Shang Yanxing stared at Gu Xichen with his dark eyes, seemingly a little proud, his tone slightly teasing, "You're not married yet, so you wouldn't understand. Once you have someone you like, you'll know why."

Jiang Susu clenched her hands tightly, seemingly a little nervous.

Gu Xichen: "..."

I've never seen anyone like this before. So what if she got married? What's the big deal? Why is she so arrogant?

This bag is so eye-catching!
