He shook his head, still looking arrogant and aloof.
Rong Shang simply smiled and didn't refute him.
Not long after, the maid went out and bought her favorite meat buns and brought them in.
As soon as she stepped across the threshold, she saw Shen Changling sitting so "shamelessly" on her young lady's lap.
The maid's face turned red.
Excuse me, she coughed a few times as if to say something.
She called out, "Miss, Young Master."
That shout almost made him fall off his chair.
Shen Changling felt awkward and quickly stood up.
Her ears turned red.
"Um, I..."
He turned his head to look at the woman still sitting in the chair behind him.
She was smiling.
Shen Changling scratched his head, his face turning red.
Ha ha ha ha……
Later, while eating steamed buns, Rong Shang couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She teased him, "Who said he wasn't afraid?"
Shen Changling pouted, "You didn't even tell me someone was coming."
The woman ignored his accusations and picked up a meat bun, stuffing it into her mouth.
Chewing, he mumbled, "Wasn't I blocked by you?"
"You've blocked my view, how am I supposed to see people?"
"Ahem," the man feigned ignorance, "These steamed buns are really delicious."
He always likes to do that.
If you can't win an argument, just pretend to be stupid.
Rong Shang didn't expose him.
"Eat up, eat up." Rong Shang stuffed one into his mouth, then smiled and squinted at him. "If you like it, we'll buy a few more bags to take home later."
"It's a good opportunity for Mother to try the meat buns from the south of our city."

Just as darkness fell, Master Guan's second concubine finally returned.
At that time, they returned with a young man behind them.
When they came in from outside, Rong Shang could see clearly that it was Li Hao.
He had lost a lot of weight in the few months since I last saw him.
Perhaps because he had suffered in prison, he looked at everyone with a hint of wariness now that he was out.
"Son-in-law Shen, you've arrived!" Lord Guan was quite excited to see Shen Changling.
Ignoring the man behind him, he strode over and invited Shen Changling to have some tea.
Upon seeing this, the second concubine's face darkened considerably.
"Li Hao, please sit down."
She glanced back at the man, her expression rather cold.
Li Hao nodded, and as he sat down, his eyes inadvertently met those of a certain woman.
He paused for a moment.
But then she said with a smile, "Auntie, isn't this Steward Li's nephew?"
“I remember, he framed you before and was arrested by the police.”
When Rong Chang said these words, Li Hao felt extremely uncomfortable.
He clenched his hands tightly at his sides.
Rong Shang glanced at him secretly and saw that his eyes were red.
Perhaps there was resentment involved.
He secretly looked up at his second wife while she was speaking.
Don't open it, clench your fist even tighter.
"You mean that matter?" The second concubine sighed. "I've long forgotten about it."
Let bygones be bygones.
Actually, she didn't dare to bring up what happened back then.
After all, Li Hao was doing things for her back then.
Instead of getting the money, he ended up spending several months in jail.
The second concubine was also afraid, afraid that this person would hold a grudge against her.
If it weren't for Guan Shuli, she would never have considered this person.
Now that we've mentioned this person...
Lord Guan then spoke.
"Shuqing, the main reason we rescued Li Hao this time is so that we can get him to marry your sister."
“Look at this…”
"We should make our own decisions about our affairs. Why are you asking an outsider like her?"
The second concubine was dissatisfied because Master Guan asked Guan Shuqing for her opinion.
