Chapter 97 Maneuvering
Even in the face of adversity, she would not choose this method.
Isn't this just putting yourself in a worse situation? Do you really think eloping is that easy?
Xie Jian did not come back that night. He was probably looking into his father's case carefully.
Just as the family was having breakfast, there was a knock on the door. It was a strong man in his twenties, about 164 cm tall.
"Who are you?" Xia asked.
"I'm from the government office. Prime Minister Xie asked me to bring a few words to Madam Shen," the man said.
Xia hurriedly called Chen Heng out.
Chen Heng had never seen this man before in the government office. When she was wondering, the man took out a book, which was the book that Xie Jian often read.
"Madam Shen." The man leaned over and whispered a few words, then turned and left.
"What's so mysterious?" Xia asked.
"Ajian said that he has gone to the college and asked us not to worry about him." Chen Heng quickly found an excuse. She still needed to sort out the words the man said.
"Does this really need to be so mysterious?"
"That's right. Sister-in-law, I'm hungry. Let's have breakfast first."
Xia hurried into the kitchen to prepare.
Shen Heng originally planned to walk on the road while thinking about Xie Jian's words, but when she went out, the door of the house next door opened.
"Madam Chen, Madam Shen." Cao Chunsheng jogged to catch up.
Seeing this, Chen Heng hurried forward.
Cao Chunsheng quickened his pace again.
"Madam Shen, I was so sorry yesterday. I didn't mean to touch your hand..."
"Cao Yuzi." Shen Heng stopped and looked at the handsome man in front of her who looked like a girl. Xie Jian asked her to deal with him as usual, but she really couldn't act normally. Although the young man in front of her had some feminine features and was not pretty, his body movements made her want to beat him up. Of course, this idea was wrong: "I know you didn't mean it." After saying that, she quickly lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes.
Cao Chunsheng was stunned for a moment. He was shy, but then he was overjoyed. He quickly took a half step closer and called out softly, "Madam Chen."
"I'm going to be late at the shop, so I'll leave first." After saying that, Shen Heng quickly ran away in small steps, she really couldn't stand it anymore.
Looking at the figure of the young lady leaving, Cao Chunsheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly. He said, based on his experience of hanging out in the brothels, this kind of young lady in the house has never seen the world and is easy to be hooked.
That Xie Jian always has a cold face, how could the young lady like him? Thinking about the fall he had yesterday, humph, once he gets the young lady, he will show her sooner or later.
Chen Hengben was thinking that her reaction yesterday was so cold, and today she had such a coquettish and shy expression. Was the transition too fast arousing suspicion? She had to make up for the details and couldn't think of others as being too stupid.
Cao Chunsheng was able to study in the academy, so he must have used his brain.
Thinking of this, I started planning seriously in my heart.
When I got home in the evening, I saw Cao Chunsheng helping out at home again. However, my sister-in-law didn't care. Xiao Min'er's small table was moved to the yard. He was painting seriously. When he saw Chen Heng coming back, he shouted happily and lowered his head to start copying.
"Aheng." Cao Chunsheng's eyes moved, his thin lips opened slightly, and he called out in an extremely tender voice that only the two of them could hear.
Uh, this sudden irritable feeling of wanting to reach out and hit someone, Shen Heng secretly encouraged herself and decided to hold on: "Cao, Cao Yuzi." After shouting, she turned her face away slightly, then turned back and gave him a shy look.
Is this acting right? Don't let me fool you.
