Chapter 675 You Like Her
After dinner, Shen Yingying personally sent Shen Ci downstairs.
In the elevator, she suddenly looked at Chen Ci and asked, "Ah Ci, your mother has been in Longcheng for more than a year. Has she made any friends of the opposite sex?"
The aunt asked bluntly, and Shen Ci blinked, then responded after realizing it: "Probably, but probably not much. She still interacts more frequently with some rich ladies."
"Aunt, are you concerned about my mother's personal problems?"
Shen Yingying smiled noncommittally, and after a moment's silence, she couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, your mother may look gentle, but she's actually very tough. If an ordinary woman were to take care of you three children, how many of them would be able to hold on?"
"Your mother has always been unwilling to look for a partner, and I guess she won't take the initiative to look for one in the future. But I hope she can find another one, otherwise your mother will only have your father in her life, and I don't think it's worth it."
It’s okay to be a good man, but the key is that he is not!
"Actually, she has come into contact with one." Chen Ci looked at her aunt and said, "She tried it after coming to Longcheng."
"Really?" Shen Yingying was surprised: "How come I didn't know?"
"Maybe it's not yet time to confirm the relationship, so my mom didn't mention it to you."
"What's going on? Why is there no next step? Is there something wrong with the other party?" Shen Yingying asked urgently.
Chen Ci shook her head: "Neither, the other party is a successful big boss. I know him well. He is a very good person. My mother should be quite satisfied with him."
"He was very proactive. He was the one who took the initiative to pursue my mom. My mom dated him for about a month or two. I felt like we were about to take the next step, but his son objected. He didn't agree!"
"Son?" Shen Yingying frowned. "His son doesn't agree?"
"Yes, and it was a very ugly incident. He bullied my mother, so I put him in the detention center for seven days."
"Oh, that's quite difficult to deal with." Shen Yingying felt it was a pity after hearing this.
"So after that incident, I think it's even harder for my mom to open up to me again. Besides, she's so focused on her business right now that she doesn't have the time to think about anything else. I guess she doesn't have the energy to think about love anymore."
Shen Yingying nodded in understanding, looked at Shen Ci and said, "Fortunately, we are all here. You, A Li, and Xing Xing are also staying with your mother. If you don't want to look for her, then don't look for her. I didn't say you have to look for her."
"Aunt, just listen to my mother and help her so that she can have some free time to think about other things." Chen Ci took advantage of the situation and said.
Shen Yingying glared at her. "So what? Just because I'm here, does that mean your mother has more time to find a partner?"
Shen Ci smiled without saying anything, opened the car door and got in the car: "Aunt, you go back, send me a message if you have anything."
"Drive slowly and let me know when you get home."
After watching Shen Ci's car drive away, Shen Yingying turned back.
Shen Jingjing and the other two drank two bottles of red wine, only Ni Man, who had a slightly lower alcohol tolerance, drank a little too much.
Shen Jingjing wanted to let her stay at her house for one night, but Ni Man was drunk and refused to go and insisted on going home.
"Forget it, I'll take her back." Jiang Yuanliang saw that Shen Jingjing couldn't persuade her, so he spoke.
Shen Jingjing looked at Ni Man who was half lying on the sofa and asked worriedly, "Can you do it yourself?"
"Of course, she only weighs a hundred pounds. Just help me get her into the car later."
Shen Jingjing didn't insist any longer. After the driver drove the car to the door, Shen Jingjing helped Jiang Yuanliang stuff Ni Man, who could barely stand, into the back seat.
Shen Jingjing also loudly instructed: "Ni Man, Yuanliang will take you home. If you feel like vomiting, remember to tell me, don't vomit in the car!"
Ni Man held Shen Jingjing's face with bleary eyes and said dizzily: "Sister Jingjing, you are so beautiful. No wonder he likes you."
"Stop talking nonsense and sit still!"
Shen Jingjing ignored her words and closed the door.
Jiang Yuanliang got on the passenger seat, rolled down the window, looked at Shen Jingjing and said, "Jingjing, let's go. You've worked hard today."
Shen Jingjing smiled and waved her hand: "Go back and rest early. Be sure to send Ni Man back safely. Tell her mother not to let her sleep on her back tonight. It will be dangerous if she vomits in the middle of the night."
"Okay, I remember. You should rest early too."
The car drove out of the gate and just passed by the car driven in by Shen Ci. She recognized it as Uncle Jiang's car at a glance.
Shen Jingjing saw her daughter coming back and went to greet her: "Why are you back just now? Have you eaten?"
"I ate at my aunt's place." After getting out of the car, Shen Ci pulled her mother into the house and said, "Is Uncle Jiang here?"
"Well, I haven't been here since the New Year, and I just happen to be free today."
After entering the room, there was still some untied mess on the table. Shen Ci walked over and couldn't help but stare: "Oh my god, did you open these two bottles of wine?"
"Yes, your Uncle Jiang said the wine was good."
"Of course it's good, this bottle costs thirty yuan." Shen Ci said with a smile.
Shen Jingjing was surprised: "It's so expensive?"
"Uncle Jiang is worth it." Shen Ci said, and took the initiative to help his mother clear the table and wash the dishes: "Three people? A Li is home?"
"No, there's also your Uncle Jiang's...ex-girlfriend, whom you've met, Ni Man."
Ex-girlfriend?
Shen Ci looked at his mother with a question mark on his head.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yuanliang was sitting in the passenger seat of his car, keeping an eye on Ni Man in the back seat: "Ni Man, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. Don't hold it in."
"I'm not drunk..." Ni Man replied with a big tongue, and then she struggled to stand up from the back seat and put her head next to Jiang Yuanliang's shoulder: "Brother Yuanliang..."
"Hmm?" Jiang Yuanliang turned his head to look at her.
Ni Man grinned, completely different from her usual self. She laughed twice for no apparent reason, then her smile faded. Zui Yan looked at Jiang Yuanliang seriously and said, "You like her!"
Jiang Yuanliang's eyes showed doubt, but Ni Man said in a more determined tone: "You don't have to give me that expression. You must like her. I can see it!"
"Me?" Jiang Yuanliang frowned. "Who do you like?"
"Sister Jingjing!" Ni Man swallowed her saliva and patted Jiang Yuanliang's shoulder vigorously: "You like Sister Jingjing, do you admit it?"
Jiang Yuanliang was stunned.
"Look, you hesitated!" Ni Man smiled proudly. "Those involved may be confused, but I can see clearly. Brother Yuanliang, the way you look at Sister Jingjing is completely different from your usual look. Even I have never seen you look like that."
"You've had too much to drink." Jiang Yuanliang came back to his senses, his expression still calm: "Have a good rest, we'll be there soon."
He didn't admit it.
But he didn't seem to deny it.
Ni Man leaned back in the back seat, laughing and talking in drunken terms: "Sister Jingjing is great, I like her too. It's not surprising that anyone likes her, she's so nice..."
