Although Zhou Fang talked about money all the time, he arranged a six-star hotel for me in Jingcheng.
I originally wanted to rush to Jiangcheng that night, but Zhou Fang said on the phone: "I'm going to Jiangcheng tomorrow and I can take you there."
"All right."
It would be a waste not to take a Bentley ride.
The next day, I thought I would sleep until I woke up, but I was woken up by the phone.
"Come down."
It was Zhou Fang's lazy voice.
After being woken up by him for two consecutive days, I couldn't help but get annoyed, "Brother, didn't you sleep all night again?"
"Wow, you're quite grumpy when you wake up?"
I took a deep breath, suppressed my stiffness, and smiled. "How could that be? I'm just concerned about you. Mr. Zhou, what brings you here so early in the morning?"
Zhou Fang yawned, “Grandma Shen wants to see you.”
"ah?"
I was a little surprised, and I was infected by him. I yawned and got up from the bed, "Now?"
He suddenly said venomously, "What else? Am I just bored or have I been secretly in love with you for years, so I'm waiting for you downstairs at this hour?"
"...Okay, fifteen minutes."
I quickly washed up, changed my clothes, and went downstairs with my bag.
The car of the Zhou family's prince was parked arrogantly under the parking corridor. The owner leaned against the car body, with his head slightly lowered, twirling the lighter in his hand, wanton and unrestrained.
I trotted over and said, "Let's go."
"Did you come here by watch?"
He glanced at his watch and said nonchalantly, "Not a second less."
Scolding me for being slow.
I raised an eyebrow and smiled, "When you compliment me on being on time."
After saying that, he wanted to get into the back seat of the Bentley.
"Ms. Ruan, thank you for being a driver."
He pressed the car door, raised his chin towards the driver's seat, and threw the car keys into my hand.
Then, he settled into the passenger seat with peace of mind.
When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
I was wondering why he sent me the location of the Shen family's old house. It turns out he had this plan.
I had no choice but to walk around the car and sit in the driver's seat. Just as I was about to complain about his lack of gentlemanly manners, I saw him take out an eye mask from somewhere.
He tilted his head and fell asleep.
This person must have been reincarnated as a trapped ghost in his previous life.
However, I did slow down the speed a lot by pressing the accelerator and brake.
The car drove at a steady speed all the way until it arrived at the Shen family's old house, then slowly stopped.
The standard Su family garden is located halfway up the mountain, quiet and peaceful.
The passenger seat was still soundly sleeping.
I reached out and patted his shoulder, "Mr. Zhou?"
No response.
"Zhou Fang? Zhou Fang?"
"Just call me by my name from now on. It's much nicer to the ear."
He suddenly pulled off his eye mask and stared at me sleepily. "When you call me Mr. Zhou, it feels insincere, even a little sarcastic."
I was speechless.
I can't find the reason. I don't know why, but when I'm with him, as he said, I always act more like a hedgehog that does whatever he wants.
Abandon those cautious, humble and sensitive attitudes.
But I know that this is the me that is more like myself.
Zhou Fang sneered, "You didn't even refute me. It seems my feeling is right."
After saying that, he pushed open the car door, stretched out his long legs and got out of the car.
He was very familiar with the Shen family's old house and took me to find Old Madam Shen with ease.
When Mrs. Shen saw me, she stood up suddenly, her waistcoat almost slipping off. "Miss Ruan, you're here."
"Um."
I responded and smiled, "Madam Shen, Zhou Fang said you wanted to see me?"
"I……"
Madam Shen paused for a moment, then softened her tone, "I also want to take you to the cloakroom to have a look, so that I don't waste your time if I don't like the clothes you designed."
"OK."
I gladly agreed.
Madam Shen looked at Zhou Fang and said, "Ah Fang, go to the restaurant to have breakfast. After you finish, bring some for Miss Ruan."
"Hmm."
Zhou Fang glanced at us suspiciously, and without saying anything else, he walked towards the restaurant.
I thought Mrs. Shen was going to take me to the cloakroom, but her warm hand suddenly grabbed me and said, "Come, sit down."
"……good."
I was a little flattered, and after sitting down, I didn't dare to move my hands.
As far as I can remember, I don’t seem to have ever seen my grandparents or great-grandmother.
I don’t know if they didn’t like me or what, I can’t remember.
Miss Shen's aged face was filled with longing, and she held my hand tighter. "I saw you yesterday, and I dreamed of my granddaughter last night. That girl kept pestering you to play with her, and she seemed to like you."
She smiled and said, "I woke up in the middle of the night and spent the whole night wondering if that girl wanted me to take better care of you."
I couldn't help but be touched and whispered, "Madam Shen, you must be dreaming about what you think about during the day."
"You, from now on, why don't you call me grandma like Ah Fang?"
Old Madam Shen spoke cautiously.
I was slightly stunned.
I felt it yesterday, that Old Madam Shen and Madam Shen are different.
But I didn't expect the difference to be so big.
Originally, I didn't want to get too close to the Shen family, but when I saw Mrs. Shen's expectant eyes, I couldn't say no.
Fortunately, I am in Jiangcheng all day and won't have too much trouble with Madam Shen.
Finally, I obediently agreed, "Okay, grandma."
“Hey!”
Madam Shen happily responded, then suddenly asked, "Yesterday I heard you say that you took over your mother's clothing brand?"
"Yes."
I nodded. "It's a brand they founded before they passed away. It's been abandoned for many years..."
Madam Shen's expression tightened, and she said with pity: "Your mother... passed away?"
"Um."
I lowered my eyes and said with some regret, "They died when I was eight years old. They died for my safety."
When I talk about this, I can't help but choke up.
"I guess they love you."
Madam Shen patted my hands and said, "No wonder my little granddaughter likes you. You are all miserable children, leaving your parents at a young age and have not enjoyed much happiness."
"No, grandma..."
As I was speaking, a spoiled and willful voice suddenly came from behind me, "Ruan Nanzhi, are you visiting my house as a relative?! This is my grandma, why are you calling me that!"
My back stiffened and I clearly recognized Shen Xingyu's voice.
Madam Shen looked unhappy and didn't even glance at her. "Who allowed you to come here?"
"grandmother!"
Shen Xingyu acted coquettishly and approached with someone, "I'm in love now, so I brought him here specially so you can take a look at him for me!"
My eyes caught sight of the tall, erect man beside her, and I dug my fingernails into my palm.
If I had known this earlier, I shouldn’t have come here today.
Fu Qichuan was dressed in a cold and noble manner. Even in front of Madam Shen, he remained calm and composed, and had the humility of a junior. "Madam Shen, I am Fu Qichuan, Xingyu's boyfriend."
The grandson-in-law's attitude is very well-controlled.
I silently pulled the corner of my mouth, feeling only irony.
Madam Shen held my hand tightly and didn't let go, acting like an elder. "I heard you just got divorced?"
