After breakfast the next day, Sheng Yunzhou had someone deliver several dresses and jewelry for Su Yi to choose from.
The clothes were placed on the sofa in Su Yi's bedroom, and the stylist was giving her advice.
"...Black and white are the most classic colors, and it's not easy to make mistakes, but they may not be particularly outstanding. Miss Su has a good figure and her skin is so white, you can actually try other colors..."
"Mom, Sheng Hengrong said--" Su Li'an rushed in and saw someone else in the room. The voice gradually disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, he saw the sofa and coffee table covered with clothes again.
He was very familiar with this scene. In the past, when their family had their own big house, his mother often picked and chose from many clothes, dressed up beautifully to go out, and then came home after a day or two or several days.
The little brat instantly forgot his purpose, ran over and grabbed Su Yi's waist, looked up at her pitifully: "Where are you going? When will you be back?"
This brat, now he even learned to act pitiful.
Su Yi tapped his forehead, "Uncle Sheng invited me to a cocktail party, I will go there in the evening and will be back in the evening. Sheng Hengrong's mother will come to pick him up later. Then you will follow Granny Qin, be good, and don't run out, do you hear me?"
"Oh." The child pouted and agreed.
"What did you just say about Sheng Hengrong?"
"By the way! Sheng Hengrong said I can go to his house to play, is that okay?"
"Today?" Su Yi shook her finger, "I'm afraid not, did you forget that you have to go to kindergarten tomorrow? Wait until the holiday, you'll have a lot of free time during the holiday."
The child became even more listless, his shoulders drooped, and he looked very pitiful, "Okay..." But
Su Yi was not ready to compromise. The two little brats were too active yesterday and this morning. They had to be separated and calmed down, otherwise they would go crazy.
Su Li'an ran out of the room with a clatter, and Su Yi continued to try on dresses.
The stylist was right. With Su Yi's appearance, no matter what she wore, she would be eye-catching. In the end, she almost picked one at random with her eyes closed.
Not long after lunch, Sheng Hengrong was taken back. Su Yi sent Su Li'an to take a nap, and she herself had to accept the stylist to do her nails, hair, makeup, etc.
In the evening, Ms. Xu came and talked with Qin Ma downstairs for a while.
"The third master is in the study, and Miss Su is trying on clothes in the room."
Ms. Xu glanced at the stairs leading to the second floor, but did not go up immediately. Her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled and she sighed softly.
"What's wrong with you?" Qin Ma walked closer, thought of something, and lowered her voice to test: "Are you not satisfied with the third master and Miss Su getting close?"
Although Ms. Xu did not come every day, she would learn about Sheng Yunzhou's situation through Qin Ma and Uncle Gu, and naturally knew about his interaction with Su Yi. As a mother, she quickly guessed what her son was thinking.
Ms. Xu shook her head, motioned her to sit next to her, and sighed, "I was just a little surprised."
Although she knew her son was attracted to Su Yi, she didn't think much of it at first. To be honest, in her opinion, this attraction was similar to Sheng Yunzhou's attention to a little bird or a little dog, except that the target was a human now.
Because Sheng Yunzhou was in poor health, no one knew how long he could live, and no one dared to joke with his body. Therefore, for more than 30 years, he had no contact with men and women, so much so that even Ms. Xu almost forgot that her son would also be attracted to the opposite sex.
Mother Qin thought that she was dissatisfied with Su Yi. After all, she had no family background, was young and had a big child. From this point of view, the two were not a good match. She could only comfort her: "Miss Su is actually a good person."
"I know, and I don't have any opinion on her."
She sighed, not for Su Yi, but for Sheng Yunzhou who had never had any emotional experience.
Love is something that you don't have to try. Once you try it, in addition to the tempting sweet fruit, you also have to bear the risk of being stabbed by the thorns on the fruit.
And her son has already suffered enough physical pain. She is really worried that he will also taste the spiritual part.
Ms. Xu knew that Qin's mother would not lie, and from the several meetings with Su Yi, this girl was not as bad as the rumors said, but a very special girl.
But love is always unreasonable, and it will not show mercy and give them a happy ending just because the two parties are good enough. There are many people who have feelings for each other but always hurt each other and can never be together.
She is afraid that Sheng Yunzhou will become one of them.
"Don't think too much," Qin's mother said, "Old Gu and I have seen it with our own eyes these days. Since Miss Su came, the Third Master has indeed changed a lot. Last night, he went for a walk with Miss Su and the two children. This kind of thing was unthinkable before. Who can predict what will be like in the future? But everyone can see what is happening now, don't you think?"
Ms. Xu was silent for a long time, nodded and sighed, "Yes."
She really shouldn't worry too much. With Yunzhou's physical condition, who can guarantee anything in the future? If there really is an accident...
She dared not think about it anymore, and thought about another key question, "Aqin, in your opinion, does Miss Su have the same feelings for Yunzhou?"
Qin's mother hesitated for a moment: "This... I dare not say too much, but seeing how they get along, Miss Su should also have a good impression."
Ms. Xu nodded slightly. She actually knew more than Qin's mother, such as Su Yi's love for Sheng Yanchuan and Su Li'an's biological father. As a mother, she didn't quite agree with Sheng Yunzhou's feelings for Su Yi. That girl had more experience. But at the same time, her upbringing and life experience prevented her from interfering too much.
She went to the study to see Sheng Yunzhou and said a few words about his recent situation. She casually mentioned the cocktail party in the evening and said, "If I had known that you had invited Miss Su, I would have brought some jewelry from my youth to let her see if she likes it."
Sheng Yunzhou looked up at her from the documents and said, "It's still early now, maybe next time."
Ms. Xu's words were a bit tentative, and Sheng Yunzhou's response of just a few words let her know that he was serious.
As the first time in so many years, it is very likely to be the only time.
After nightfall, the car was waiting outside.
Su Yi walked out of the room, and Sheng Yunzhou happened to come out of the room. He was wearing a three-piece suit and his hair was neatly combed. He looked gentlemanly and gentle. Although his face was a little pale, he was actually quite attractive as she looked at him.
Hearing the voice, he turned around and saw Su Yi. He was distracted for a moment, but soon recovered and smiled and said softly, "I'm afraid that tonight, I will be envied by all the men in the room."
Su Yi was wearing a light ice blue sleeveless dress. The V-neck was not too deep, but the neckline was wide, revealing her perfect clavicle. The back was also a big V-neck. The white and firm skin on her back was not a trace of fat. The butterfly bones that trembled when she walked were even more beautiful. She only wore a pair of diamond earrings and no necklace. As the stylist said just now, any decoration on her neck would not attract as much attention as her own.
Su Yi just looked in the mirror and felt quite satisfied. But receiving compliments always makes people feel happy.
She raised her chin and joked, "How dare I not do my best when I am entrusted by Mr. Sheng?"
Sheng Yunzhou stretched out his arm to her, and Su Yi took it in cooperation, and the two went downstairs together.
Downstairs, the park staff who had not yet left looked up at the two of them, their expressions full of surprise.
They knew from the beginning that Miss Su was a beauty, but they didn't expect that after dressing up, she would be so beautiful. Standing next to Mr. Sheng, one was calm and elegant, the other was bright and charming, but they were surprisingly well matched.
"Mom, you look so beautiful today." Su Li'an lay on the backrest of the sofa in the living room, and thought about it and added, "Uncle Sheng is also very handsome."
Sheng Yunzhou smiled and said thank you, and Su Yi walked up to touch his chin, "I'll be back soon, and when the cartoon is over, go to bed and sleep obediently. I will check on your room when I come back, understand?"
Su Li'an nodded obediently.
The staff members watched this scene, and some of them felt a little regretful. In their opinion, Miss Su's appearance was impeccable, but it was a pity that she had a child. With the family background of the Sheng family, how could they accept a woman with a child as a daughter-in-law? If she wanted to use this opportunity to get back on the social ladder, it would be difficult.
Fearing that they would waste time, Su Yi simply said a few words and went out with Sheng Yunzhou.
When they arrived, the guests in the banquet hall had almost arrived.
The head of the Sheng family and the bankrupt Miss Su, these two standing together were enough to surprise many people.
Although everyone suppressed their curiosity, the buzzing discussion had not been heard since the two entered the hall.
Sheng Yunzhou rarely attends such occasions, and people outside don't know much about his recovery. They only know that the head of the Sheng family is sick, sick, and sick again. After the last dangerous incident, many people were wondering how long he could last.
As a result, now, the person who was said to be terminally ill and dying, appeared so alive and kicking?
As for Su Yi, since the Su family went bankrupt, the young lady of the Su family was quickly forgotten by the upper class circle. No one expected to see her again in such an occasion. She looked more gorgeous and charming than before, and she even stood next to Sheng Yunzhou.
Many people were anxiously curious. What did she do during the time she disappeared? How did she catch the eyes of the Sheng family?
Although she received more stares than the host of the banquet, Su Yi had never known what the word stage fright was. She followed Sheng Yunzhou with ease, playing the role of a diligent vase.
"Are you tired?" Sheng Yunzhou tilted his head and asked her in a low voice in between conversations.
"As energetic as those two little brats." Su Yi said. Sheng
Yunzhou laughed.
The person opposite him looked at this scene in surprise and even horror. It was not surprising that Sheng Yunzhou laughed. Even when facing a business rival, he still smiled like a gentleman, but that smile was completely different from the intimacy and joy of the current one.
If just now, the other party looked at their relationship with a self-righteous ambiguity, now he has unconsciously corrected his attitude.
Because it seems that the Sheng family's head and Miss Su are not just doing a casual deal.
Su Yi stood beside Sheng Yunzhou for a while without looking away, but finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food and ran to the buffet table.
As soon as she stood still, someone who had been paying attention to her came over.
"Long time no see." Xu Haicheng said, looking at Su Yi with a complicated look.
