Chapter 186 Difficulties
Shen Sangsang felt that his words seemed to be a bit of a mockery of her. The expression on her face did not change because of these words. Her eyes were fixed on his face. After a few seconds, she asked: "Uncle Shen, are you saying that I broke the contract?"
"Breaking the contract isn't that serious. After all, we haven't reached the point of tearing up the contract yet, right?"
The reason why he didn't tear up the marriage certificate was because of the scandal outside or because it wouldn't be a problem if he just put her here as a decoration.
Shen Sangsang couldn’t tell which side he was on.
However, after thinking about this, she stopped talking.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Shen Yuehuai naturally stopped talking too.
Because of Shen Yuehuai's refusal, the seat change was naturally unsuccessful. The car continued to move forward and soon arrived at a dining place.
Because they came out late, it was basically time for lunch when they got outside. Since there were elderly people with them, they simply had lunch first and then continued their afternoon schedule.
After the car stopped in front of a restaurant, Su Nanxue got out of the car first, and then helped Mrs. Shen out of the car.
This trip was quite grand. After all, there were many elderly people, caregivers, servants, and bodyguards, so naturally no one was missing.
So after Su Nanxue helped the people out of the car, Madam Shen followed a group of people and walked towards the restaurant. It was impossible to ignore the scene.
After Shen Sangsang followed Shen Yuehuai out of the car, she naturally fell behind. Shen Yuehuai did not walk quickly forward, but walked slowly forward. Because he did not walk fast, Shen Sangsang naturally could not walk too fast either, and could only follow his footsteps.
After arriving at the restaurant, Su Nanxue and Madam Shen had already sat down, and Shen Sangsang just reached the door after following Shen Yuehuai's footsteps.
The arrival of Shen Sangsang obviously dampened Mrs. Shen's enthusiasm for traveling today. Because of their slow arrival, Mrs. Shen's expression, which was originally quite happy towards Su Nanxue, instantly turned into obvious displeasure when she saw Shen Sangsang. However, because it was Shen Yuehuai who walked slowly, she could not find her fault, so she did not say anything.
Shen Sangsang didn't really care about her opinion of her, she just quietly followed Shen Yuehuai to take a seat.
After sitting down, Su Nanxue took the menu and asked, "Grandma, what would you like to eat?"
When Mrs. Shen heard this, a happy smile appeared on her face again: "Whatever, just order. I believe in your vision."
Su Nanxue smiled slightly: "Then I'll just order whatever I want?"
Old Madam Shen said with indulgence on her face: "Hmm."
But then she added, "Or, you can discuss it with Yue Huai."
Su Nanxue smiled softly: "Okay."
After she finished speaking, she placed the menu on the table: "Yue Huai, take a look."
Shen Yuehuai heard her words and replied calmly: "Well, okay."
Old Madam Shen looked at Su Nanxue and felt that she was extremely restrained today, which completely failed her expectations of her.
Su Nanxue seemed not to notice Madam Shen's gaze and was only focused on pouring tea for her.
The menu was brought to Shen Yuehuai on the turntable. Shen Yuehuai picked it up from the table and ordered two dishes. Then, he asked, "What would you like to eat?"
He was asking his old mother.
Madam Shen said calmly, "Just order whatever you want."
Shen Yuehuai added a few more dishes and put the menu on the table again.
The waiter at the side took the menu over personally. When he arrived next to Su Nanxue, he smiled and whispered, "Mrs. Shen."
When the waiter said this to Mrs. Shen, the expressions of everyone present paused slightly.
The one who paused most obviously should be Su Nanxue.
She looked at the waiter, but there was hesitation in her eyes.
The waiter still looked confused as to why she had such an expression, and he called out again, "Mrs. Shen."
This time it was Shen Yuehuai who frowned slightly.
At this time, Su Nanxue also hurriedly said: "You may have recognized the wrong person. I am not Mrs. Shen. Mrs. Shen is that one."
Su Nanxue pointed her hand towards Shen Sangsang.
The waiter immediately looked in the direction Su Nanxue pointed. Before Shen Sangsang showed any emotion on her face, the waiter's face turned red almost instantly.
The waiter had never seen Mrs. Shen. Because Shen Sangsang looked like a college student, he subconsciously thought of Shen Sangsang as a relative of the Shen family, not Mrs. Shen.
The waiter never thought that he would cause such a big mistake, and it was not just a mistake, it could be a disaster.
Just when the waiter looked at a loss, Mrs. Shen, who was sitting there, didn't think there was anything wrong with that remark. She whispered, "It seems that Nanxue still has the temperament in this aspect."
When Su Nanxue heard this, the hesitation on her face became more obvious, and she did not respond to what Mrs. Shen said.
And what Mrs. Shen said in reply, she didn't put Shen Sangsang here at all, and didn't take her face into consideration at all.
Shen Sangsang did not express any dissatisfaction, as if she did not care much about being misjudged by the staff.
When Shen Yuehuai heard his mother's words, he replied calmly: "It has caused trouble for Nanxue."
Just as Su Nanxue was about to speak, Shen Sangsang turned her head and said to the waiter, "To work in the service industry, you still have to learn to judge people. We are fine here, but it will cause trouble for others."
What Su Nanxue wanted to say was stopped instantly, and after hearing what Shen Yuehuai said, the waiter's face turned as pale as pig liver. After a long while, he replied: "Okay, okay, I understand, Mr. Shen."
Shen Yuehuai was not an unforgiving person. On the contrary, he was a forgiving person. So after hearing the waiter's reply, he stopped talking. In order to correct his mistake, the waiter immediately walked towards Shen Sangsang again. After walking in front of Shen Sangsang, he respectfully called out, "Mrs. Shen."
The waiter's behavior made Su Nanxue feel a little embarrassed. She held the menu for a long time and remained silent.
Old Madam Shen's eyes became even colder.
As for Shen Sangsang, who had been sitting there without moving, she naturally had to speak at this time. Facing the waiter's apology, she naturally replied in a low voice: "It's okay."
When the waiter heard her say it was okay, his liver-colored face relaxed a little.
After that, the manager came in and naturally called the other manager out. He was quickly replaced by another person. This farce, which was not big but not small either, finally came to an end.
After that, Shen Yuehuai sat there drinking tea without saying much.
In order to ease the awkwardness, Su Nanxue naturally kept talking to Old Madam Shen beside her.
And Shen Sangsang sat there, staring at the pattern of the tablecloth on the table in front of her because she had nothing to do.
She didn't even notice when the waiter poured her tea. Then Mrs. Shen, who was sitting there, said to her, "What are you doing sitting there?"
When Shen Sangsang heard this, she subconsciously raised her head and found that she was looking at her, and then she realized that her words were directed at her.
Madam Shen said coldly, "Didn't you see what Nanxue was doing? Nanxue is the guest today, so who are you?"
Shen Sangsang looked towards Su Nanxue and found that she was taking the teapot from the waiter and pouring tea for Old Madam Shen.
Shen Sangsang watched this scene, and of course she knew what Madam Shen meant.
Su Nanxue didn't expect Mrs. Shen to say this. She immediately said, "Grandma, it's okay. I'll come over—"
Before Su Nanxue finished speaking, Madam Shen's voice rang out again: "Yue Huai, I'm talking to her."
At this time, Shen Yuehuai, who had been drinking water, finally moved his eyelids. He first glanced at his mother, and then at Shen Sangsang.
Shen Sangsang thought that he meant for her to move, so after he looked at her, she did not hesitate, but stood up from the chair, and then she walked towards Old Madam Shen step by step.
She knew very well that her arrival would not make things too easy for her. She even thought of sending her to a mental hospital, so how could she not make things difficult for her?
Therefore, Shen Sangsang felt very calm about Madam Shen's tricks. She was not surprised at all. This was what she should bear.
She walked straight to Mrs. Shen and reached out to take the teapot from Su Nanxue.
Su Nanxue glanced at her with a slightly dull expression, and then she let go of her hand. Shen Sangsang was holding the pot of tea, naturally pouring tea for Old Madam Shen. After a cup was full, she was about to put the teapot down when Old Madam Shen said, "Where are the guests?"
Shen Sangsang's hand stopped again in an instant. After a while, she was silent for a few seconds.
During this process, Shen Yuehuai had stopped drinking tea and just sat leaning back in his chair watching.
After hearing what Old Lady Shen said, Shen Sangsang remained silent for two or three seconds. Finally, she picked up the teapot in her hand and poured a cup of tea for Su Nanxue very gently.
Su Nanxue watched the cup in front of her being filled up, but she did not make any other moves.
Logically speaking, as Mrs. Shen, she had no need to pour tea for Su Nanxue, but now she was serving the people at the table like an old servant.
Shen Sangsang knew very well what Old Madam Shen meant. She was warning her not to forget her former identity.
After Shen Sangsang finished pouring the tea, she put down the teapot without changing her expression.
Because there were other people in the box, she naturally couldn't make things difficult for her. So, after she did as she was told, she naturally didn't say much.
After Shen Sangsang saw that Old Madam Shen didn't say anything, she walked towards Shen Yuehuai again and continued to sit beside him.
Shen Yuehuai lowered his eyes and continued to pick up the teacup on the table.
Fortunately, the appetizers were served after a while and everyone started eating.
Su Nanxue had been serving Madam Shen at meals, but Shen Sangsang, the daughter-in-law, seemed extremely dull and unvirtuous.
Shen Sangsang naturally did not have any ideological burden. No matter how well Su Nanxue did, it had nothing to do with her.
She drank the bowl of soup in front of her with a porcelain spoon.
Shen Yuehuai ate some, but seemed to have a poor appetite and put down his chopsticks early.
After he put down his chopsticks, Shen Sangsang also put down his chopsticks a while later.
After she put down her chopsticks, Shen Yuehuai said to her, "After you finish eating, go wait in the car."
After he said this, he stood up from his chair.
Does this mean he's going back to the car?
Shen Sangsang raised her head and looked at him, while Shen Yuehuai had already said to Old Madam Shen: "Eat slowly."
When Mrs. Shen heard his words and saw his actions, her face darkened slightly, but in the end she said nothing.
Shen Yuehuai walked out of the wing room, and Shen Sangsang, who was still sitting there, naturally stood up and followed Shen Yuehuai out of the wing room.
Su Nanxue, who was sitting there, put down her chopsticks.
How could she not understand the reason for his action? He went to the car so early just because he was afraid that his mother would make things difficult for Chen Sangsang again.
…
After Shen Sangsang followed Shen Yuehuai to the car, although the weather outside was quite hot, the temperature in the car was quite comfortable, so Shen Sangsang sat in the car and remained quiet.
Shen Yuehuai continued to use the tablet to handle some official emails.
Shen Sangsang looked outside. She looked at the green trees outside the car window and fell into deep thought. But after thinking for a while, her attention was attracted by a car.
The car froze her expression.
After the car stopped next to theirs, a man got out.
That person turned out to be Wang Ruyan.
After looking at their car, Wang Ruyan came over with a smile on her face. Before Wang Ruyan could knock on the car window, Shen Yuehuai seemed to have sensed something and moved his eyes away from the tablet. He looked out the car window.
"Uncle Shen."
Wang Ruyan's voice rang out clearly outside the car.
Shen Yuehuai only asked the driver to lower the window. After the window was lowered, Wang Ruyan happened to walk to the side of the car and excitedly called Uncle Shen again.
Shen Sangsang sat there watching silently. Of course, Wang Ruyan didn't take her seriously. Her gaze completely passed over her and fell directly on Shen Yuehuai.
When Shen Yuehuai saw her, there was a faint smile on his face: "Ruyan, why are you here?"
Wang Ruyan said happily, "I came here with my dad. I saw your car when I parked it just now and immediately came over to say hello."
When Shen Yuehuai heard her words, the faint smile on his face continued: "So that's how it is. Where is your father?"
"He came to this restaurant earlier than me. We didn't go the same way."
Shen Yuehuai nodded: "I don't have time to talk to your father today, please say hello to him for me."
When Wang Ruyan heard this, the smile on her face became even brighter. She said happily, "Uncle Shen, can you come to my house as a guest in a few days?"
Facing Wang Ruyan's expectant look, Shen Yuehuai didn't refuse outright. After a few seconds, he said, "When I have time, I will definitely go."
Wang Ruyan was so happy that she said happily, "Okay! Then I'll wait for you! Uncle Chen!"
Shen Sangsang sat aside and listened to the conversation between Shen Yuehuai and Wang Ruyan. Naturally, she did not look at Wang Ruyan the whole time.
At this time, Su Nanxue and Old Madam Shen walked out, and there was still a large group of people.
Wang Ruyan looked over.
