Even after the two got into the car, Pei Wu didn't seem inclined to speak. Even her glasses reflected the sunlight slightly, making it difficult for Shen Yunan to discern the color of her eyes.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Shen Yu'nan glanced at Pei Wu several times, his keen senses alerting him to her unease.
Pei Wu's brows had been slightly furrowed ever since she left the main house, or rather, ever since she agreed to let Mo You in.
Moreover, Pei Wu, who rarely honks her horn to urge others on, honked her horn many times along the way, which was unprecedented for her.
'She's agitated.' These words flashed through Shen Yuhuan's mind.
He glanced at Pei Wu's hand gripping the steering wheel, noticing that she was unconsciously tapping it lightly with her fingertips at a rapid pace. This action only deepened Shen Yu Nan's suspicions.
Pei Wu was feeling irritable at that moment.
'But what exactly is she agitated about? Is it the constant bringing up of Mo You's matter, or something else?'
Shen Yu Nan, who hadn't figured it out, didn't open his mouth easily.
As his thoughts raced, he unconsciously bit his lip lightly. Shao Sang's lips were rosy and glowed with a healthy sheen; even this simple gesture was incredibly alluring. He turned his gaze away from Pei Wu and looked out the car window.
The two were about to head to Sun Min's research institute. Before their honeymoon, they needed to have Shao Sang's body checked and retrieve the charging equipment that Pei Wu had asked Sun Min to improve. The original charging case was inconvenient to carry, both in size and shape, if they were going on a long trip.
Moreover, if it is to be launched on the market in the future, this charging case design is indeed not very suitable for market needs. It not only takes up a lot of space but is also heavy. If you suddenly run out of power while you are out, it will be quite troublesome and is not suitable for large-scale promotion.
Throughout the journey, Pei Wu and Shen Yu Nan remained silent. They didn't know how long the car had been traveling. Lost in thought, Shen Yu Nan gazed at the scenery outside the window for a long time, when a thought suddenly stirred within him that made his chest pound.
As he turned his gaze away from the window, he subtly tapped his Adam's apple and called out, "Miss..."
Seeing Pei Wu glance at him, he continued tentatively, "Mr. Mo You was personally chosen by my mother. His position is awkward. If Miss doesn't want him, how will he conduct himself in the Pei family?"
This wasn't the first time the two had discussed Mo You.
Pei Wu's last answer was that as long as her mother asked about this matter, she could just have Shao Sang shift the blame onto her.
When Pei Wu heard Shao Sang mention Mo You again, she glanced at Shao Sang beside her, pondered for a moment, and then replied calmly, "What you said doesn't make any sense either."
Pei Wu's intention here was not to comply with her family's arrangement to take Mo You in, but rather to consider how Mo You should conduct himself in the Pei family and what long-term arrangements would be made. After all, it was because of her refusal to take Mo You in as a second wife that he had been placed in such an awkward position.
She had indeed been inconsiderate before. She only cared about her own thoughts and made her position clear, but she hadn't considered how Mo You should conduct himself.
Upon hearing Pei Wu's words, Shen Yu Nan was slightly stunned. He pursed his lips, unable to understand the meaning behind Pei Wu's words for a moment.
"What does Miss mean?"
Pei Wu remained silent for a while, and only after arriving at the research institute and parking the car did she turn to look at Shao Sang.
Since Shao Sang had already brought this up, Pei Wu took the opportunity to ask about the matter that had been swirling in her mind since the beginning. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but all the way here, she kept replaying the scene of Shao Sang's conversation with her mother in her mind.
She knew that what she cared about was Shao Sang, who had said those words...
"If I were to take Mo You in, would you really agree?" Pei Wu turned to look at Shao Sang, and their eyes met.
Pei Wu felt that Shao Sang's eyes were hazy, as if shrouded in a layer of mist. She couldn't see into her heart or understand her thoughts.
"........"
Shen Yu Nan's gaze met Pei Wu's, who had asked the question.
Pei Wu's eyes remained calm as still water, but Shen Yunan could sense the seriousness in her tone of voice when she asked the question.
Shen Yunan opened his mouth. He could clearly feel Pei Wu's seriousness. His heart warmed. He felt that Pei Wu cared about him, and it wasn't just his imagination.
Now that it was just him and Pei Wu, he was almost ready to reveal his true thoughts, but the words "disagree" were on the tip of his tongue when the long-lost pain of thousands of needles piercing his body returned, like the intense pain and numbness after being electrocuted.
Shen Yu Nan's face immediately turned pale. He was trying to suppress his pain so that Pei Wu would notice his weakness if he made a sound. He almost bit his back teeth to pieces, and his clenched hands were almost dug into his palms by his nails. However, this pain was nothing compared to the excruciating pain he was experiencing.
Men who disagree with their wives accepting their mothers-in-law's arrangements violate Shao Sang's image as a virtuous wife and will be punished by the system for going against the virtuous husband system.
The system further stipulates that if Shen Yu Nan is punished more than five times, his mission will be deemed a failure, which means that Shen Yu Nan will be imprisoned in Shao Sang's body forever.
Shen Yu Nan's eyes immediately turned red from the pain in his body.
At this moment, he must say something that fits the image of a virtuous woman like Shao Sang in order to end the punishment from the system.
He rolled his throat hard and slowly uttered words that went against his own thoughts but were consistent with Shao Sang's virtuous character.
