Chapter 185 The Spirit of Contract
Su Nanxue and Old Madam Shen were just about to get into the car together. When they saw Shen Sangsang coming down from upstairs, they stopped. In their sight, Shen Sangsang happened to be standing at the stairs.
The old lady's face darkened. She asked, "Why did you come down?"
Obviously, she had no intention of taking her current daughter-in-law out with her today.
Su Nanxue on the side also stared at Shen Sangsang, not knowing what she was going to do, but her eyes subconsciously looked towards Madam Shen.
Shen Sangsang didn't say anything, just stood there.
Madam Shen's expression grew increasingly stern. Just as she was about to scold him, Shen Yuehuai, who was standing beside her, said, "I asked her to come down."
When Mrs. Shen heard what her son said, she was a little confused and looked at her son.
Shen Yuehuai replied, "It's rare for you to go out and play, so as your daughter-in-law, she naturally has to accompany you. If she doesn't go with you and is seen by others, she will inevitably start making random guesses."
After hearing this, Mrs. Shen stopped talking instantly. How could she not know what he was thinking? Of course, her son also knew what she was thinking very well. This was against her will.
She said in a slightly depressed voice, "It's a private trip, so why would there be outsiders? Besides, Nanxue grew up under my watch. It's perfectly legitimate for her to accompany me, her godmother, on a trip."
Su Nanxue certainly knew why Shen Yuehuai asked Shen Sangsang to accompany him. He was afraid that she would cause misunderstandings if she traveled with him and his mother. Was this also a symbolic vote on Shen Sangsang's identity?
Su Nanxue's face turned pale. She thought to herself that there was actually no need for him to avoid suspicion like this. She really had no other ideas at the moment.
This actually made her feel a little embarrassed.
Of course, Su Nanxue didn't say these words.
Shen Sangsang stood there, watching Shen Yuehuai talking to Old Madam Shen, with no emotion on her face, like a robot.
And Shen Yuehuai responded to his mother's words, "It's getting late, let's go out first."
At this point, he did not directly answer his mother's question, but made a decision in one sentence.
The servants began to put all the things they needed for the trip into the car, and the driver turned around and waited at the door.
Old Madam Shen naturally couldn't say anything more. Feeling her son's attitude, she could only put on a cold face and said to Su Nanxue beside her: "Let's go."
Su Nanxue supported her and followed her out naturally.
When everyone was walking towards the car, Shen Sangsang was still standing there without moving.
At this time, Shen Yuehuai stopped and looked towards Shen Sangsang.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and his shadow cast a heavy shadow on the marble floor. He said coldly, "Let's go."
In fact, Shen Sangsang really didn't want to go to such an occasion. Now the situation was so bad that it seemed like she had to go and cause trouble.
She listened to Shen Yuehuai's words "Let's go" and was silent for a long time. She could only follow him out.
The distance between her and him was that of a shadow, and Shen Sangsang always kept a distance that was not too far from him, but not too close.
When he walked to the car, after the person in front of him got on, it was his turn to get on, but he paused for a few seconds. Then, he looked at Shen Sangsang behind him and whispered, "Get in the car."
This means letting her get in the car first.
After Shen Sangsang heard his words, she hesitated for a few seconds, then under his words and gaze, she bent down and got into the car.
Naturally, she and he were in the same car, and Old Madam Shen and Su Nanxue were in the same car.
Originally, Madam Shen wanted her and Shen Yuehuai to ride in the same car with them, but Shen Yuehuai refused the proposal on the grounds that it was not very comfortable, so she ended up riding in the same car with him.
The two of them often stayed in the same room these days, but they didn't communicate much. They basically did their own things and rarely talked much.
After the car started, Shen Sangsang sat on the chair and fell into silence again, while Shen Yuehuai sat beside her and processed some emails on the tablet.
The car was so quiet that there seemed to be no sound of breathing.
At this time, several cars were driving very smoothly one after another. At this time, the car that Mrs. Shen was riding in suddenly stopped slowly.
Because they were on the same route, after the car in front stopped, the car Shen Sangsang and the others were riding in naturally had to stop as well. Shen Sangsang and Shen Yuehuai in the car all looked forward.
At this time, Shen Yuehuai's phone rang. After hearing the vibration, he naturally took out the phone to check. Seeing the caller, he thought for a few seconds and answered: "What's the matter? Is there something wrong?"
Shen Sangsang knew very well that the call was from Old Madam Shen.
The space inside the car was enclosed, so she could hear the voice on the phone clearly.
Mrs. Shen said from inside: "I feel carsick in this car. Let's switch seats. I'll take your car and you take mine."
Everyone knows what Madam Shen's intentions are and what Sima is thinking.
Even Shen Sangsang, who was sitting beside and listening quietly, understood what it meant.
She sat there and heard Mrs. Shen's voice on the phone, her expression unchanged.
After hearing this, Shen Yuehuai frowned a little.
But the person on the other end of the phone is still waiting.
Shen Yuehuai was silent for a few seconds, then whispered, "Then let's change cars together in the front."
He said to change the car together, not that he would go alone.
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she said, "I'm the only one who's dizzy, so I can just switch with you."
"Then let Sangsang switch with you."
Who knew that Shen Yuehuai would stop her intention again.
Old Madam Shen didn't expect that he would reject her again and again. Even though she understood her intention, he pretended to be confused and refused.
Madam Shen's voice turned a little colder and she said, "Then let's talk about it later."
After she finished speaking, she ended the call.
When Shen Yuehuai heard the other end of the phone hang up, he naturally put the phone down from his ear.
Afterwards, he put his phone aside without any expression.
Shen Sangsang was still sitting there listening. When all the voices stopped, she naturally looked out the car window. Her eyes fell on the scenery outside. She said, "Why not fulfill her wish? Actually, that would be good too."
When Shen Yuehuai heard her words, he naturally looked towards her.
He asked in a low voice: "What do you mean by fulfilling your wish?"
His expression was not gentle, and the emotion in his eyes seemed a bit cold. When Shen Sangsang heard him ask this question, she did not answer or speak.
Shen Yuehuai added: "I think I still have a sense of contract."
