He regained his gentle and reserved demeanor in front of Shen Wangshu, looking at her with a tender smile.
At this moment, it seemed as if there was nothing else that could make him see anyone other than Shen Wangshu.
The old penguin peeked out, eager to speak to Shen Wangshu.
Dongfang Xuan took Shen Wangshu's hand and walked past the old man, gently saying to Shen Wangshu as they went, "It's time to go to school."
"Why bother with school? We'll hire a private tutor!" the old man boasted hastily from behind.
Dongfang Xuancai didn't hear it; he turned a deaf ear. He also saw that Shen Wangshu pretended not to hear it, and felt even more that he and his lover were of one mind. The two of them walked out of the golden gate together, and saw the quiet servants closing the gate. Only then did Shen Wangshu chuckle softly, "Your grandfather is very interesting."
She paused, then said gently to Dongfang Xuan, "I am truly grateful to him for acknowledging me and accepting me." How could this old man, who once controlled the Dongfang family, appear so harmless and foolish? It was simply because she was the girl his grandson liked.
Because her grandson likes her, he sees her as family, which is why he presents her in such a different way.
"Grandpa should thank you," Dongfang Xuan said gently with a smile.
Shen Wangshu looked surprised and hurriedly asked, "Because you only like me?"
"yes."
The boy looked at the girl, who was only about the same height as him, and reached out to touch her face, as if only in this way could he know that she was real. He whispered, "Since I was fifteen, I have told him that if there is no one like you in this world, then I will never fall in love with another woman."
He reached out and embraced the girl's slender body, which was so thin you could almost feel her bones, and said softly, "Grandpa has always been worried that the Dongfang family will have no successor." But he also had to thank his grandfather, because he had not forced himself to be close to other women because of his own willfulness.
"Why fifteen years old?" Shen Wangshu asked softly, moved by such deep emotion.
"Fifteen is the coming-of-age ceremony for scions of wealthy families." A smile flashed in Dongfang Xuan's eyes as he spoke softly to Shen Wangshu's surprised gaze. "At the coming-of-age ceremony, a woman is always shoved into the door."
Having his first woman is what makes one an adult.
Dongfang Xuan refused and told his grandfather that without his Shushu, he would never be able to reach adulthood.
Shen Wangshu sighed deeply.
This is similar to how sons of wealthy families in ancient times would be given two maids to serve as concubines when they were only teenagers.
What kind of ridiculous rule is this?!
"Well done!" She highly praised the boy for knowing how to remain chaste and felt she should reward him. She leaned over and kissed the corner of his mouth, saying with satisfaction, "I will personally call you an adult from now on."
She blushed after saying such bold words, and then seemed to hear a small cheer from behind her. Turning her head, she saw a small crack in the golden door, and an old man was peeking in.
Shen Wangshu's words seemed to make him particularly gratified.
Clearly, the old man was extremely worried about his grandson.
However, feeling the old man's enthusiasm, Shen Wangshu couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
She used to be so immersed in Ah Xuan's love and protection that she never thought about how lonely Ah Xuan would be if she hadn't appeared.
Will he just wait for me like this forever, and not start a second relationship?
Such feelings are touching, but beyond being touching, Shen Wangshu finally thought about Ah Xuan. Without the company of his wife and children, how lonely he would be in his old age.
She couldn't bear the loneliness even thinking about it. Now, hearing Dongfang Xuan speak such resolute words with such a nonchalant air, her heart ached. For the first time, she felt a sense of relief that she had appeared here. She touched the boy's still somewhat childish back, reached out and hugged him tightly, whispering, "I'm here."
She came, striving to bring him happiness.
She paused, then asked with a hint of shame, "If I'm not here, and you have no one to carry on your legacy..."
Judging from Dongfang Xuan's appearance, it's probably impossible for him to even hire a surrogate.
Feeling guilty towards the girl in his arms, the boy nuzzled her cheek and chuckled softly, "And there's A-Ye too."
He paused, released Shen Wangshu, touched her brow, and said softly, "Aye is my grandfather's sister's child, and also has the blood of the Dongfang family." He had even found his own successor, and seemed quite willing to act as a matchmaker for Aye to have more children to inherit the Dongfang family. This slightly calculating look made Shen Wangshu's lips twitch, and she deeply felt that being the top assassin wasn't easy. She reached out and flicked Axuan, and seeing him smile at her with his eyes crinkled, she nodded in satisfaction and praised him again, "Well done."
A chilling killing intent emanated from the golden gate.
To avoid triggering the killer's rampage, the young couple happily got into the car and left.
Shen Wangshu sat in the limousine and looked at her clothes. She was still wearing the same clothes she had worn yesterday.
Similar to Si Xin, Si Chun also prefers clean, solid-colored dresses, which not only make her look pure and innocent but also carry a touch of the naivety of a young girl who is not yet an adult. Looking at her clothes, she thought about the school Si Chun attended and couldn't help but ask Dongfang Xuan curiously, "Are you also a student at the Noble Academy? How come I've never heard of you before?" The Noble Academy is a comprehensive academy that includes all schools from kindergarten to university.
Shen Wangshu is in the high school department, Si Xin is in the university department.
