Chapter 72 Confrontation
Shen Qinghuan clenched her back teeth tightly. She knew Jiang Yu did it on purpose, but she had no way to deal with him. With Jiang Yu's temper, if she dared to shake off his hand, he would definitely "turn the table" without hesitation.
But she couldn't help but hold down his restless hands and tried to force a flattering smile.
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows proudly, patted her head lovingly, and said with a smile: "Wife, won't you introduce me?"
Suddenly meeting those abyssal black eyes, Shen Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat. Every time he took the initiative to call her "wife", it meant he was trying to make trouble. At this moment, she deeply regretted calling Jiang Yu and asking her to come to Zhou's house to have dinner with her. Wasn't this just pushing herself into the fire pit?
Shen Qinghuan suppressed the discomfort in her heart and smiled calmly, saying, "...Zhou Sinian is also Grandpa's attending physician. You should have met Doctor Zhou when you went to the hospital to see Grandpa before!"
"That's all?"
Jiang Yu still smiled, neither anxious nor impatient.
Shen Qinghuan put her hand on her forehead, the corner of her mouth moved slightly. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Zhou Sinian say with a smile: "Before Huanhuan went to your house, our two families were neighbors."
After a pause, he added with a smile, "We were neighbors with a very good relationship. Our parents even arranged a marriage for us."
Shen Qinghuan: "..." Please! Can you say less?
"Child marriage? It sounds like the relationship between your two families is pretty good." Jiang Yu frowned suspiciously, his eyes falling on Zhou Sinian's gentle and peaceful face. "But if your two families have such a good relationship, why weren't you there when my wife's family was in trouble? Logically, you should have taken her away."
Jiang Yu spoke sincerely, like a child with a strong thirst for knowledge, staring at Zhou Sinian with a frown.
Zhou Sinian met Jiang Yu's gaze without giving in.
Mr. Jiang was hospitalized due to illness some time ago. He had seen Jiang Yu in the hospital several times, but he was not with Shen Qinghuan every time. Therefore, Zhou Sinian did not know that Jiang Yu was Shen Qinghuan's husband.
But at that time, he could clearly feel that Jiang Yu's eyes looking at him seemed to carry an inexplicable hostility.
Zhou Sinian suppressed his displeasure and said with a half-smile, "Mr. Jiang, let me be frank. If my family had taken Huanhuan away, you wouldn't be in this situation now!"
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "So, Dr. Zhou is jealous of me?"
Zhou Sinian narrowed his eyes slightly, anger surging deep in his eyes. Yes! He was jealous! He was extremely jealous. He had known since childhood that when he grew up, Huanhuan would become his wife, but the reality was that when he found Shen Qinghuan, she had already married someone else.
Shen Qinghuan almost choked when she heard Jiang Yu's blunt words. She wished she hadn't sewn his mouth shut.
What the hell is wrong with him? Is that what he should say? Jealous? Zhou Sinian is so outstanding, why would he be jealous of him?
She couldn't help but reach out and tug at the corner of his clothes, and deliberately lowered her voice to ask, "Jiang Yu, what do you want to do?"
"What do you think I want to do?"
Jiang Yu deliberately leaned close to her ear and whispered softly.
A warm breath suddenly entered her ears, like a slowly wriggling insect. Shen Qinghuan was startled and almost pushed Jiang Yu away from her. Before she could recover, the large hand clasped around her waist suddenly exerted force, forcing her to suppress the dissatisfaction and anger in her heart.
Zhou Sinian seemed not to notice their whispering interaction. He curled the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at Jiang Yu seriously. "Mr. Jiang is right. I am indeed a little jealous of you. I am jealous that you can let Huanhuan marry you."
His voice was calm, but if you listened carefully, you could detect a subtle madness.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhou Sinian in astonishment. What kind of nonsense was he talking about in broad daylight?
Before she could recover from her shock, she heard Jiang Yu say with a half-smile, "Wife, Dr. Zhou seems to like you."
Shen Qinghuan: "..." Are you crazy? !
She felt inexplicably panicked, but quickly forced herself to calm down.
Shen Qinghuan took a deep breath and looked up at Zhou Sinian. Her delicate face was filled with helpless apology. "I'm sorry! Brother Sinian, please tell Auntie that we're going back first. I'll come see her another day when I'm free."
In this situation, she couldn't stay there for even a minute. She felt that the man next to her was like a time bomb that could explode at any time.
Zhou Sinian knew what Shen Qinghuan was worried about, so he didn't force her to stay. He just said, "Then be careful on the road."
Shen Qinghuan said "hmm" softly, and then, regardless of whether Jiang Yu was willing or not, she pulled him away from the Zhou family.
Zhou Sinian stood at the gate and watched them leave. He did not look away until the black SUV disappeared from his sight. His eyes were dark and filled with an unspeakable anger.
"Si Nian, why are you alone? Where are Huan Huan and her husband?"
Seeing Zhou Sinian coming back alone, Mother Zhou's expression changed slightly, her brows furrowed slightly, and she couldn't help but ask him.
Zhou Sinian told his mother word for word what Shen Qinghuan asked him to convey.
Mother Zhou was a little unhappy, but she didn't say much. Instead, she turned the topic back to Zhou Sinian and Ren Shuyan. "Sinian, you don't have to be on duty tonight, right? Take Shuyan out for dinner now, and then you two can go to a movie. It seems like this is how young people fall in love these days."
Ren Shuyan's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she quickly turned her head to look at that gentle face, her eyes full of admiration for him.
"mom……"
Zhou Sinian subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But his mother seemed determined to let him marry Ren Shuyan, and had even arranged a date for him.
"Si Nian, you are not young anymore. It's time to get married. You can't just focus on your work." Mother Zhou continued to persuade her son slowly, without any urgency on her face.
After a pause, she affectionately took Ren Shuyan's hand and said cheerfully, "Let's do it by the end of the year! I'll help you two get married by the end of the year. Shuyan, when you go home tonight, ask your parents when they have time, and we can discuss the wedding together."
Ren Shuyan blushed, her eyes filled with tears, "I know, Auntie, I'll ask them when we get back."
After she finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Zhou Sinian beside her.
"Mom, I don't agree."
…
On the other side, after Shen Qinghuan and Jiang Yu left Zhou's house, they had not spoken a word to each other. In the small compartment, the air was so silent that it seemed to be frozen, as if they could hear their own heartbeats.
Shen Qinghuan turned her head to look at him, hesitated for a moment, and remained silent.
She didn't know what to say.
