Chapter 103 Wife

She stood up and said to Shen Yu, "Brother, I'm going back first."

Shen Yu was talking to Zuo Zhong, his eyes slid across them imperceptibly, and when they landed on her, there seemed to be some deep meaning in his gaze.

He was about to speak when Lu Manman stood up and took Shuang Xu's arm: "Let's go."

Lu Manman protected her as she went downstairs, and they retreated tactfully when they reached the parking lot.

Shuang Xu got into He Tingzhou's car carefully. He Tingzhou laughed at her: "No one's here. Don't be so nervous."

The car drove out of the parking lot and headed towards Songming Road. He Tingzhou was driving, and light and shadow slid across his cold profile.

Why are you so cold? I'm the one who's frightened.

Shuang Xu complained in his heart and said, "Can you not do this next time? It will easily arouse suspicion."

"What?" He Tingzhou asked.

Shuang Xu pursed his lips, feeling ashamed when he said it himself: "Call me baby in public."

He Tingzhou raised his eyebrows and asked lightly, "How do you know I was calling you?"

After two seconds of silence, Shuang Xu said expressionlessly: "If you really call me Brother Zifeng, I will have nothing to do with it."

He Tingzhou chuckled, and the coldness melted away like ice.

"Sure." He said in a negotiating tone, and then said, "Move to my place tomorrow."

Move there?

Shuang Xu was hesitant, but she knew she had no room to refuse in front of He Tingzhou. After thinking for a moment, she said, "You didn't say how long you needed me to stay with you. If you want me to move in, should we agree on a deadline?"

The supercar glides along the wide and empty road at night. He Tingzhou's lips curl up in a meaningful arc, and his slow tone sounds just like a villain in a fairy tale:

"Little princess, your brother never taught you that the terms must be discussed before signing the contract."

Even though Shen Yu never taught him, Shuang Xu understood this principle.

At that time, I was concerned about Shen Changyuan's safety and how to get He Tingzhou to agree. I did not consider the deadline issue carefully.

He Tingzhou was only slightly interested in her, and she naturally thought it wouldn't last long.

She frowned and said, "I can't live with you forever."

"Don't worry." He Tingzhou said, "I'll let you go when I get tired of playing."

"When do you get bored?"

When the car stopped at the building below Songming Road, He Tingzhou turned around and said sanctimoniously, "It's hard to say. I don't like people who are too active and enthusiastic. Why don't you try harder?"

"……"Do you think she is stupid?

After Shuang Xu got off the car, he didn't get on.

She returned home and lay on the sofa like a zombie, in a daze.

Not long after, the doorbell rang. It was Shen Yu.

Every time he came, whether it was to deliver something or to send her off, he would only go downstairs and rarely come up. Shuang Xu opened the door and asked in surprise, "Brother, why are you here?"

Shen Yu's suit was hanging on his arm, with his sleeves rolled up and the collar of his shirt loosened, making him look more casual than usual.

He asked, "Do you have my watch?"

"Oh. I forgot to give it to you." Shuang Xu went back immediately, took out the watch from her bag and gave it back to him.

Shen Yu took the watch and buckled it on his wrist. His drooping eyelids obscured his eyes: "Did Manman send you back?"

Shuang Xu hummed.

She lied.

Shen Yu put on his watch and raised his eyes, as gentle as ever: "Go to bed early."

The next day, Shuang Xu was at work when she received a call from He Tingzhou.

In a casual voice on the phone, he asked her, "What do you want to bring with you?"

Shuang Xu thought about it and realized that there really wasn't much to move: "Just some clothes and cosmetics will do."

He Tingzhou said: "Travel to my house."

"Don't you have all the others there?"
